DAILY OAMTAlj JOURNAL. SALEM, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1 008. TAFT WINS MICHIGAN; WILL HAVE 20 VOTES Delegates From State May Be Unanimous, But Eight Are Uncertain Gains In Public Pavor-Walter Wellman Explains Why Republicans of Varying Ideas Support Him (I)y Walter Wollinnn.) Detroit, Fob, 4. Mlolilgan Is for Tatt. 6t tbo twenty-eight delegates from this state to tho nntlonal con vention nt loaat twenty will bo for tho Bocretary of Wnr. Tho remain ing eight may bo for him also In deed, tho probabilities are that thoy will be, but until the situation de velops a llttlo fmrthor thoy cann tt bo regarded n certain. Tho four delegate! at largo and moot of tho district riologatofl wilt bo instructed for Tnft, An effort In mnldng to aecuro a unnnlinoun delegation, and unions somolblnjr goes wrong It Is probablo tho effort -will nuceoed. No ono now denies that Michigan Is a Taft atnto. There In no serious opposition to tho Tnft programme. No open work I being dono for Other candidates, Tho pooplo and tho politicians rognrd tho outcome iui alrondy dotormluod thnt tho volo of tho Htnto Ih for Tnft. Tho only question Ik whothor two or throo dlntrletH aro to ntand out ngnlnnt tho gouornl will and wlsb of tho HopublloniiH of tho common- Troallh. Although Home exaecdlngly clever politico la behalf of Taft marks tha recent hltof"y of oventu bore, Ilia idlont, tho compollltig foot In tho trond of publlo opinion. It In cor coded by ovory ono, ovon by men who favor other candidates, that a great majority of the llopuhllcann favor Taft. Tho ntrnugth of tbt nontl ment among tho ninnnes, as In Ohio, nnd innny other state, bus made t easy for those operating practically and looking after anlffrn to secure result. These men nro no well sat isfied with what linn boon dono that thoy arn now virtually nwtlng on tholr oar. Their work la dono. All they need to do In tho future Ih to watch two or three districts whero the results may still Ixi regnrdivl an In doubt. nnd all that. Hut I bolicvo this work can bo carried -on aucoessfully without no much beating of tho drum, without bo mtiuh calling of men liars, without running amuck and Bhootlng-up tho town. J believe Juilgo Taft would prcooryo all the vital parts of noosovoltlsm and drop omo of tho objectlonnblo part." Tho K'.'cond subdivision of publlo fiontlmcnt In this state In that found among tho mouses of pooplo. It Is lloosovolt idolatry pure and simple. It Is a fooling thnt President Hooso volt Is tho greatest man tho country ban has! in public life sine Lincoln. All that Itov. Mr. Dixon nnd othor ministers of tho gospel nro saying that tho percentages are about of equal velume: Tho President s ve hemence doesn't wear as well as Taft's more quiet devotion to the same principles." Still another phas" of opinion among the more active men of tho state Is worthy of com mont. I have heard of It in many quarters. It ij a bell of, moro or I- s general, that It is whso to go UT Taft for tho reason that if h is mado tho leading candidate with a probnbllty of success on the first bal lot, that moro than anything oUo would stop tho talk of rilshln? Roosevelt through and forcing him to nun desplto what lio lias said This Is (rue because cvsry one knowa Taft stands for RoosovoH and his policies. If thero was danger of tho nomination of any other candi date than tho ono known to bo thoroughly satlufnctory to tho Pres ident, almost -every ono forsew that Hhcro might bo an oruptlon, an up heaval, at Chicago, Thcso Michigan btiBlnosa and pro fessional men who aro for Taft are not, Roosevelt hatorB. On tho con trary, they approvo of thi Preil- dont and his work, some of them with qualifications with shading of j wnrmth or coldness. What they cannot understand Is that-'if thoy can boo tho way clear to got In tho White Houbo a steadier nnd quieter man than Roosevelt, why In tho namo of all thai Is good and great!
