this letter was anything but great joke
on the secretary. He always regarded
it as such and had many hearty laughs
over 1t, not realizing that it was one of
the rocks which was to help wreck the
ship of his political fortunes.
The Ballinger-Pinchot dispute over
the conservation of natural resources.
which marked the earlier days of the
Taft administration. brought out a
typical phase of Mr.. Taft's character.
He did not regard the controversy as
serious at first, but was rather inclined
to look only at what he regarded as the
humorous side of the meeting between
the two men. When the full seriousness
of the affair finally came home to him,
Mr.. Taft found himself in deeper than
he imagined. The President had great
regard both for Pinchot and for Balm
ger He particularly felt that the latter
was being badly misrepreSented and UNI
Justly aSSailed.
1t was perhaps due to the feeling
that he had himself been unjuStly
treated in many ways that Mr.. Taft
hesitated to act harShly toward or con-
denim any man during his term as
President. Numerous friends urged him
to drop both Pinchot and Ballinger
and thus get rid of the trouble all at
once, but Mr.. Taft felt this would be
an injustice to either one or both men
and declared he would rather suffer
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-03-09

of government-the executive, Judicial,
and legislative-and felt that each
should be respected. He did not believe
he had right to infringe upon the
prerogativeS of the legislative branch
by debating what Congress should do,
despite the fact that such precedentS
already had been set at the White
House.
Thus 1t came about that the Payne
Aldrich tariff bill of 1909 was not all
that Mr.. Taft thought 1t would be. But
he earnestly believed 1t was the best
tariff bill enacted up to that time and
he felt that it met In large degree the
platform promises of his party.
For his defense of this bill, particu-
larly in the famous Winona, speech.
which 1t afterWard developed had been
prepared between stations" Mr.. Taft
was bitterly assailed by the Progress
siveS. The controversy arising from this
speech and the reading out" of the
Republican party of all Progressives
who had differed with Mr.. Taft, brought
about the great rupture in the party
which made 1t impossible for Mr.. Taft
to succeed himself. The letter which
read the Progressives out of the party
was prepared for Mr.. Taft by one of his
earlier secretaries, who aspired to po-
htical leadership without having had
any experience In that line. Mr.. Taft
never could get it out of his head that
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-03-09

Nationwide rush for patronage began,
Mr.. Taft was all but dumfounded. He
had no patience whatever with the Of
flee seekers, and the fact that a man
sought Office seemed to Mr.. Taft to I'M
At him for that Office. He turned many
faithful party workers away from the
White House empty handed and soon
he was in the hot political waters that
boiled during most of his administra-
ton. Mr.. Taft took many of the trips
for which he was famous as President
just to get away from the sordid Office
seeker He declared 1t was the only
way he could get a moments rest. ="
The Secret Service men who went
along were as carefully warned against
office seekers as they were against sus-
picious "cranks."
Under-valued Publicity.
Mr.. Taft'S judicial turn of mind led
him to complete differentiation of
publicity in the conduct of his admins
tration. Not once during his term as
President did he show a comprehension
OF the benefit that might accrue from
using the newspapers to test public
sentiment on important issues He read
few newspapers and did not appreciate
their influence upon public opinion. He
had a judicial objection to discussing
matters in the press. This lack of in
| terest in newspapers and misunder-
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-03-09

standing of the benefit of newspaper
publicity caused him to delay the prep
aration of many of his messages and
state papers until it was too late to mail
them in full throughout the country
and he had to be content with hurried
Geographic summaries of some of his
most important utterances.
The feeling that he was a party man
and owed a lasting debt of gratitude
to the Republican party for having
bestowed the presidency upon him led
Mr.. Taft to give perhaps too willing an
ear to the men he regarded as domi-
mating Republican forces at the Ma
tional Capital. For his intimacy with
Senator Aldrich and his many con-
situations with Speaker Cannon and
others who were regarded as reaction
aries by the Progressive wing of the
party Mr.. Taft was sharply and con-
stantly arraigned. Mr.. Taft was not
particularly fond of Mr. Cannon, but
Mr.. Cannon was at the time all
powerful in the lower branch of Con-
greSs. Mr.. Taft sincerely admired
Senator Aldrich and believed absolutely
In his integrity and "Reminiscences.
He place entire confidence in Mr.. AL
drich during the bitter tariff revision
fight that marke the first Summer OF
the Taft administration.
Mr.. Taft Inherently believed in the
sacredness of the three great branches

Court of Ohio, at %, Solicitor General
OF the United States at 81, judge of the
Federal Circuit Court at "a, civil gov
ernor of the Philippine Islands at 43,
Secretary of War in the Roosevelt
cabinet at 46, and President of the
United States at 81. AT the age OF SIS
he was again a private citizen. later
becoming Chief Justice at the age OF 81
1t was this wonderful record in public
ONCE that led so many people to predict
that Mr.. Taft would make an ideal
President. His training, they said, had
all been in that direction and he would
bring TO the Office a broader and more
varied experience in public affairs than
any other President previously could
| boast.
After he was installed in the White
House, however, many OF Mr.. Tafts
most loyal friends realized that per-
haps his training had not been alto
gether Of the right sort. His offices
had been held almost wholly through
appointments. He had been before the
| electorate but once In al his public
career prior to the time he was elected
to the presidency. This was when ne
successfully offered himself for election
to full term as superior court Judge
IN Ohio after having served on tha'
bench by appointment as successor tc

into the Cleveland cabinet
Did Not Know Political Motives.
Mr.. Taft, therefore, had not beer
reared in the school of practical poll
tics; he had not rubbed elbows VIII
the men in the political trenches, mol
fought his way up from the ranks
Consequently, he lacked that keen In
| sight into the motives and the methods
OF the practical politician which many
! OF his predecessors had possessed In
large degree and had used in effective
measure
Public office had been thrust upor
Mr.. Taft all the way up to the highes
gift OF the people. The stage always
was set in advance and the carpe
laid for his triumphal entry into some
new berth Of public trust. SO 1t wa!
| that Mr.. Taft could not understand
the ravenous appetite OF many OF tn
men OF party politics: he could no
comprehend the thirst for Office, thu
! cry for prefeTment beneath the polit'
zeal plum tree, the storm for q place
on the public pay roll that ragged anC
howled about him the moment he wal
seated in the presidential chair. Mr.
Taft could not conceive the ambition
nursed in the breast of the averag'
political worker. In all his public
career, up TO the very portal OF tn
White House. he had never held 81
