SKY HEN Roosevelt and Taft rode w up Pennsylvania avenue on March 4, 1909, it was the first time since Jackson and Van Buren had passed that way side by side, more than 70 years before, that a retiring president would not have preferred an other seat mate and successor than the one whom the fortunes of politics had thrust upon him.
 Roosevelt alone selected his success or.
 Naturally, everyone assumed that we were to have a Roosevelt admin istration by another name, and it was expected in the campaign that the ex-president would not go farther away from the White House than Oyster Bay. Instead, he plunged into the depths of Africa.
 The fate of William Howard Taft would be pathetic if he himself had not met it and borne 1t with smile.
 He was abler, more upright, more independent than some far more sue cessful presidents. But by bent and training he was judge, and the White House is no place for judge.
 As lawgfver and governor of Manila, Taft had won the confidence of his oriental subjects, and rather than desert his post, before his task was finished, he sacrificed the dearest ambition of his life. In year and a half Roosevelt had him in his cab inet as secretary of war-and soon had him in his eye for the presidency.
 Roosevelt had the weakness of his strength. He thought he was strong enough to make a president. But real presidents are born, not made.
 The moment Roosevelt was gone, the standpatters. the reactionary fnrcas- emerged from their seven and

MINING INDUSTRY
 ID HOLD MEETING

The international Mining Conven- >tion to be held in Portland April , CTS and g. is of great importance to the mining industry.
 This meeting is of particular impor- tance, coming as It does just before the April session of congress. Many subjects will be discussed including necessity of protective tariff on cer- tain metal and other legislation tend ing to stabilize the metal mining in dustry which has been demoralized for two years.
 The public has misunderstanding of the Pullman act During the war this act permitted the TT. S. Govern ment to melt up several hundred mil lion silver dollars and sell the metal to England at $l,00 an ounce when the market price of silver was over S1.30 an ounce. The bill provided that after the war the government should buy back from American miners a like amount of silver at S1.00 an ounce with the money received from En- gland, to replace the silver dollars melted down. The taxpayers are not out one cent and this is not bill pro viding bonus to silver miners It would have been entirely unfair for our government to melt our silver money and sell to England at less than the market price for silver as was done. and then wait for the silv- CT market to drop and buy back from our own producers who had been pre- vented from selling to Eneland at the higher market price
 The convention will discuss this and many other important questions of which the public should be better informed relative 70 mining.

Une-naII years in the cyCIone ceIIar. The moment the political broncho felt the tenderfoot on it's back. it bucked, and threw Taft from the seat of leader ship. The next thing the rank and file of Republicans knew, the party was slipping back into the old rut from which Roosevelt had jerked it when first he laid upon it his master ful hand.
 But the people refused to go back. Eight months after Taft's inaugura- tion, the election of 1909 sounded a clear warning of the disaster that overwhelmed the party in the congress sional election of 1910 and which all but destroyed it in the presidential election of 1912.
 According to story that was told Of Taft, curious stranger asked a gateIeeper at the Union station in Washington where he would stand the best chance of seeing the presi- had between trains. ''Right where you are" was the reply. Hes al ways either taking a train or getting off of one"

 After having elected him by 1,200.- 000 plurality, the people parted with l Taft more in sorrow than in anger, They did not question that he was a good president, but that is a secondary ] consideration. A president must be 6rst of all politician and leader.
