Who WILL Be TAFT'S RUNNING MATE
POLITICAL D0PESTEkS STILL At SEA

, IN the game OF politics, Dut whether
lie intends TO try again for the
wee presidency is not known, not
withstanding the afct that some
months ago he signfed his inten
ton of not running again. There
Is no doubt in the minds OF leading
statesmen that the New Yorker Is
stronger With the odd Guard" in
New York state than ever before.
Mr.. Sherman is still factor. or
position in the national convention
may develop should his name be
placed before that body and for
this reason it is believed he will
not consent to have his name USED
as a candidate for second place.
Anticipating that Sherman will not
offer any opposition to the selection
OF Tatt's running mate, the old party
leades 5 and stand patters are looking
Tor big man for the job. Sen
ator Cummins of Iowa and Senator
kenyon OF Iowa have been mention
ed as men who are likely to have a
large following. But it is pointed out
that Cummins has already announc-
ed his candidacy for president. SEN
ator Kenyon on the other hand it
Is said is too young in national pol
ltitcs to be considered as a running
mate for the president.
The disposition therefore of the
leaders is to reach out and get
some man recognized as a progres.
Siye the country over to make the
race. Senator Borah looms up as
one OF the best OF the possible
choices.
1t is not known whether Senator
Borah will accept the nomination if
1t is rendered him, as he too occu-
pes an influential place in the sen.
ate, but il is thought that he might
hc induced TO run under pressure
from President Taft on the ground
that it was his duty as a republican
TO make the race.
He is recognized as a good cam
paigner and one of the strong men
OF the United States senate. He is
only forty-SiX years old and could
