o!onel Roosevelt, for ha has repeated
ly declared that he la not a candidate.

There i a Wilson and a Harmon bu
reau la New York; there arc Clark and
I'nderwond agents at work In the Na

in In smaller fields in the Interest of
Ires prominent candidates. But no bu
reau and no preas agent Is ainginx tha
praises of President Taft.
fc 10 tna minus 01 many ni-nu- ..
X Presld-nt this Is a mistake. These
friends have recently been urging tha
J President to permit thin to open a
A bureau In hts interest, not only to
t spread the Taft troepel. but to point
out the fnll. k'Iv Ill the contentions 01
opposing i-andldates. and to meet tha
assaults of Ifmocratlc bureaus. They
feel th.it the Preaidcnl should sanction
euch work In bis behalf, especially aa
It la generally conceded he la to be tha
party nominee In June.
fablle Mlaa eeii Refrrsktag.
Thus far the president haa not ap
proved of aurh a course; ralber, ha
haa been Inclined to stand upon hia
record, and to go before the people
seek UK renominating on account of his
public work, and asking re-election on
tha same high ground, if renominated.
Which Is all well enoufch. Say bis
friends, only It requires the services
of a public bureau to remind the pub
lie of the many achievements of tha
present Administration.
-The great American public has a
short memory." said one of the friends
of the President who favors tha open
ing of a Taft publicity bureau. "The
average voter does not long remember
what a President bus accomplished.
The latest achievement may remain In
his mind, but the accomplishments of
one. two or three yeura ago become
vague recollections. Tha public mind.
I say. needs refreshing, and a well
organised publicity bureau la the only
thing that will serve this purpose."
History will write down tho Taft
Administration as one of great progress
and development In the Cnlted Mates:
one In which tha Kxecutlve. the courts
and the Congress have all accomplished
great things too numeroua to mention,
but there are few men who. offhand,
can recall half a dosen of the great
arhleveuienta of the Taft Administra
tion, and few can point out tha extent
to which presidential Influence wna re
sponsible for these achtevementa.
Presides Self-AelvertUer.
That la why the President's frlenda
are urging the opening of a publicity
fcureau. They know, from experience,
that tha Prealdent la not a good ad
vertiser, and they know equally well
that he la not a politician. Hla prede
cessor In of flea never needed a pub
licity bureau, for he was far and away
the best advertiser the country haa
known. President Taft la a different
type, and not only are his past acts
forgotten, but his present accomplish
ments fall short of tha notice they de
serve, for he himself doea not empha
sise them.
.Moreover, the President la making no
reply to the attarka made upon him by
bia enemies. He-publican or Democratic
TI1-. charges are hurled at the pres
ent Administration, many of them with
out founds lion, but no reply is forth
comtng. The Administration ia being
constantly placed in a false light be
fore the public, and no counter effort
Is made to set forth the facts. Tha
Mu.-kraker who assaila the Taft Ad
ministration knows he Is almost sure
to escape exp"ure. And all because
l iere Is no f-Kiinlzed bureau to give
publicity lo the Administration's side
cf tiieee oueMiona and controversies.
Pccusionallv there may be some an
swer, hut seldom Is it as effective aa it
ehould or could be.
Vlaska l ue la K.aassple.
Take, for instance, the work of anli
Taft publicity agents In working up the
so-called "Controller Bay scandal."
That wss as vicious a bit of forgery
ua is recorded In the history of Ameri
can politics. And while it is true that
the case collapsed, and the scandal
failed to materialize, there are In this
. thniiainilH of neonle who
couniij i w . . --
believe something crooked had been at-
tempted ly President Taft. No auch
yV Impression would have been left In the
C mind of any man had the Controller
f : . i V. nnnMVftlt Ail-
ruiy artair aii-u ...
ministration, and no auch impreaslon
would be left today If this esse had
been dcult with in Roosevelt fashion.
Thla I but an illuatratlon of tho need
cf i Taft publicity bureau.
If the President does not sanction tha
-.-..iinn of a bureau for the dissemina
tion of facta in hia support, his frlenda
are likely. In tha near future, to open
u.-h bureau on their own responsl-
bllltv. for there is a widespread feeling
among the President's aupportera that
some action along thla line should be
taken, and taken oetore more 01 i
...,.,..uiinn la allowed to sink
unchallenged Into the public mind. For
It is a notorious fact that opposing
press bureaua mot all. but some of
them) are utterly unmindful of facta
and care nothing for truth. They are
resorting to foul means to assail tha
Taft Administration, and they must be
expos-d. or they will work injury to
the Administration, and later to tha
Republican ticket if Tart la renomi
naied.
