Externally Taft la everything that
Roosevelt Is not, writes William Allen
White. Taft begins each day by a
weary, painful, perfunctory half-hour
of gymnastic gyrations— a kind of
canned exercise— which, having been
opened aud devoured, finishes his phy
sical duty for the day. Roosevelt takes
his exercise in the open, with the Joy
of a satyr In It. Roosevelt’s mental
processes are quick. Intuitive and sura.
Until he has made up his mind he is
a most open-minded person. Taft
works it out. He is never too aura to
receive new evidence. Taft grapples
a proposition, wrestles with It without
resting and without fatigue until It ia
settled er solved. His joy Is found at
the end of the road. Roosevelt’s joy la
found In many roads. He wearies of
monotony, and keeps divers interests
In his .mind, many things to empley
him under the head of unfinished busi
ness. If Providence is slow In sending
wars and rumors of wars— what ho,
for the nature fakirs! Let ua be up
and doing.
Roosevelt has a marvelous moral
sense; he has a detective's nose for
finding Iniquity In measures. Taft has
a prodigious capacity for hard, con
secutive work and an Instinct for evi
dence founded on a broad, charitable
affection for men, whom he knows as •
hunter knows his dogs; and Taft finds
the right of things, as Roosevelt finds
It, but by a different path. Taft en
joys his meals. Roosevelt, absorbed in
work or play, would eat hay and not
know It. With Roosevelt culture is
like bear hunting, trust fighting, muck
raking or fence Jumping, a rampant,
gorgeous reaction upon his Insatiable
soul. With Taft culture Is a sweet. In
definable mental and moral dlgestant
tincture that colors his soul's eyes so
that he may see a delightful world; or,
to change the figure, It Is an easy gar
ment, a sort of drapery of his spiritual
couch, which he wraps about him and
lies down to “ pleasant dreams.”

South Bend, Ind.— As a climax to a
night and a day of rioting in the yards
o f the Grand Trunk railway in which a
freight train of 60 cars was cut into
ten sections, Pinkerton detectivee were
stoned, and five passenger trains were
stalled for hours, an attempt was made
to wreck eastbound passenger No. 8,
known as the Detroit and New York

express.
The engineer, by chance,
saw the thrown switch in time to
bring his train to a stop and prevent a
catastrophe.
When he left the engine to investi
gate he was stoned by the mob, in
which were many foreigners, but the
timely appearance o f police prevented
