Taft's Administration Clean.

There is no justice in the opposition
| to President Taft. His administration
has been clean and capable and in har-
mony with platform pledges. No other
1 man can serve the country 80 well as
he during the next four years. and the
| interest Of the party, as we'll as the
country, demands his denomination. He
| is in all fairness entitled to the support
| OF his party for another term, and q
just and righteous application of the doc
| trine Of the square deal would accord
him denomination without a. contest.
| III. c. CARROLL,
| Governor Of Iowa"
| 1T is my opinion that President Taft
| has given the country one Of the best
administrations in its history. Great
problems growing out Of changing eco
nomic conditions have been met with pa
| in a statcsmanlike manner. A rema rk-
ably long list Of constructive legislation
| is to his credit, and important admins
tratiye reforms have been brought about
under his leadership. / firmly believe
that when the record of the republican
party under his wise, leadership Is fully
made known to the people they will rally
to his standard, rcnominate and re-elect
| him.

President Taft Is q safe man at the
head OF the nation. His administration
| has been able and statesmanlike in the
broadest sense. His record entities him
should receive a most emphatic popu-
lar Endorsement. A. ]. POTHIER,
Governor Of Rhode Island"
Utah for denomination.
Il have heretofore publicly expressed
myself as favoring the denomination of
President William H. Taft. and voiced
my belief that Utah will send Taft dele
cation to the national convention. I am
glad to reiterate my personal preference
! for Mr. Taft as presidential nominee. l
accord my support for the reason that the
administration Of President Taft during
1.-THE past three years has been distinguished
as an administration of ability and fdel-
lity, the two highest qualities that are re-
quired Of men Of public affairs in the ma
ton.
Il regard him as the most logical as
we'll as the strongest man whose name
has been mentioned In connection with
the republican presidential nomination. /
am confident that Utah will send Taft
delegation to the national convention.

Governor Of Delaware"
Most Difficult Task Since Lincoln's.
Confusion in business and in affairs
generally was the legacy awaiting Presi-
dent Taft when he entered upon the
duties Of his ONCE. Pledged by himself
and his party to correct this condition.
| he undertook the most difficult task since
Lincoln's time, and has succeeded. Should
the tariff bill now advocated by the dem
ocratic House become law, 1t would
strike down our industries and impose
| suffering and want upon the people Of
| Pennsylvania.
"In view Of the able manner in which
President Taft has conducted his ONCE,
| the constructive and substantial achieve
ments of his administration, and his
advocacy Of a protective tariff, the Key
stone state / am sure, will go into con-
vention for his denomination and give
| an overwhelming majority for him upon
election day. I unhesitatingly predict
his reelection.
-" JOHN X. TENCR,
Governor OF Pennsylvania
| president Taft is personally popular
| in Tennessee, and his administration
commands general public confidence. The
state organization is loyalty supporting
| the President, and from present indica-
| lions he will get the vote Of Tennessee
| In the national convention.
