DARK Horse may
WIN G. 0. P. RACE
REPUBLICAN LEADERS LOOK FOR
PRACTICAL BUSINESS MAN
TO HEAD TICKET.
COLEMAN DU POINT NAMED
AS LIKELY CANDIDATE
Delaware Man Has Splendid Reputa-
ton as a Sclf-Made Leader In
Constructive Business.

With the Republican convention on.
ly a scant twelve weeks away, the
most popular topic Of conversation in
political circles these days concerns
the G. o. Pts choice Of a candidate
to run against Wilson.
The Republicans will probably go
back to old principles and look for a
candidate who will command the sup
port OF the same army Of voters who
elected Mckinley, when wave OF
patriotic common sense swept the
country. and business men by the
hundreds Of thousands marched the
streets demanding practical govern
nent. 1t is interesting to note that
the name OF General Coleman du Pont,
of Delaware, has been repeatedly men
toned recently as the man eminently
qualified for the nomination. To those
who look upon the government as
big business concern demanding
the supervision of trained business
man, the name of General du Pont car
ries strong appeal, for there is no
man more qualified to handle the bis
problems of today than this same self
made leader in constructive business.
Moreover, both the public and private
record of General du Pont will stand
up well under the searchlight of po-
litical opposition.
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1916-03-24

Coleman du Pont was born in Ken
lucky and started his working life in
the mines of the Blue Grass State. He
stands today as one of the few sue
cessful men who have acquired their
positions by methods that will stand
scrutiny. He has been a producer
not stock jobber He has never an
tagonized any class of people. Capital
and Labor alike admire him.
Without self-advertisement he does
more charity than do most men. He is
an ardent advocate of good roads and
believes that really perfect system
of highways will enhance the farmers
income and reduce the cost of living
to the cities. He has built roads and
given them to his state, always with a
sound business scheme to perpetuate
them and save them from being
burden to the taxpayers.
He comes from a family more Amer
ican than most--a family identified
with the building of the nation since
the Revolution. His grandfather was
Thomas Jefferson's most valued per-
sonal friend and advisor in the time
of great need during the dark days
OF the Republic.
The great Powder Company with
which he was formerly identified has
supplied our government with all its
powder at price always named by
our government officials themselves
and never by the company.
Because of his great executive abil
ity and high standing in the business
world, some of the shrewdest POI
litical minds in the country consider
him as being one of the most likely
dark horses for the Republican
nomination. They point to the fact
that his success in life would elimin-
ate any need for a friendly Colonel
House. or any other financial influence
standing ever behind the presidential
chair. Nor would he be compelled to
take orders from any man or group of
men.
Another factor that the supporters of
General du Pont are pointing to is his
knowledge OF military affairs For
sixteen years he has been identified
with the soldiery of his state and is
thoroughly alive to the necessity for
preparedness. He has also had
practical training in politics, nav.
ing been a delegate to a number of
State and National conventions. and
serving as a member OF the Republican
National committee for many years.
It is the splendid business training
OF General du Pont that is pointing
the way for him to the nom.
nation. For it is conceded on all
sides that the biggest problems of this
country at the close of the European
war win be business problems. and
there are few men among those men.
toned who have had his experience
IN coping with such huge problems

ness and as reorganlzer. Coleman
du Pont stands in a class by himself
