WOULD TAFT BE A
GRACEFUL LOSER?
His Friends Believe He Could
Meet Defeat and Still
Smile.
How dors President Taft view his
own chances for reelection? If the
fortunes of the campaign should go
against htm, would be be a good
loser? Can he stand the gaff without
hla future being embittered?
These are questions being asked by
Americans, who love the National
game of politics and take Interest In
It. Nothing Is more uncertain than
this same game and if the tide should
go against the republicans and land
a democrat In office, would the big
fellow In the White House still smile?
President Taffs supporters do not
expect anything of that sort to hap
pen, but they believe he Is a good
lom-r, basing this opinion on his past

The Interstate Commerce Commis
sion hss asked representatives of all
exoress companies to give it detsiled
Information uoon tbirtv-four Questions.
Ita hearines have been discontinued
for a few dava to allow information
collected. Meanwhile the Senate Post-
office oommittee la examining re ore
aentativea of express companies. The
general aentiment la that the Interstate
Commerce Commission baa "made
rood." When It waa organised, aome
People said commissions have accom
plished nothing. It looks aa though.
when it nets through with the exoresa
eompaniea. there will b e aa little use
for Parcels Post as there waa for Gov
eminent ownershlo and operation of
railroads, after it regulatea railroad
rates, and tht thereby Uncle Sam will
save from fitfv to seventv-rive million
dollars per yesr required for eauio-
ment and rebuilt poatofficea and an op
erating deficit of S150.000.U00 yearly.
It oroved that the Government did not
have to own the railroads to prevent
the railroads owning the Government.
Possibly the commission may investi
gate the cost of Parcela Post systems
abroad. It ia generally known that
government operation is most expen
aive. Such expenditures, it ia said,
would necessiate continuanoe of high
tariff dutiea to afford revenue: and.
to save a few centa yearly to each per
son on carriage of parcels, the people
would thus saddle themselves with a
load of Government debt. In comoar
Ing rates, the Commission would, of
course, consider tnai labor and similar
costs are much cheaper in Europe
Following the recommendation of
Postmaster General Hitchcock that the
Government condemn and operate the
telegraph avstema the wireless and
air ships not being specified President
Taft has recommended and that the
Government build and own railroads
in Alaska. Defense of the recommend
ation ia made that, besause merchan
dise ia carried incidentally to matter of
Intelligence, advocates of Parcela Font
say the nation ia already in the trans
portation business and that now have
Parcela Post From Alaska to nation
wide railroad operation would appear to
be simple.

actions and what he haa said when
ever the subject has been brought up.
He must realize that, holding as he
does, the biggest job on the Western
Hemisphere, many others have their
eyes fixed on the same high place and
the Interests, which always seek to
control the government, are ceaseless
In their efforts to place a man favor
able to them In the presldental chair.
Knowing then the uncertainty of poli
tics and the traditional ingratitude of
republics. President Taft bas spoken
of Just such a contingency. Ho spoke
directly to the point on this matter
when he said:
I Din very grateful for the honors
the people have given me. I do not
affect to dtuy the satisfaction I should
feel, if, after casting up the totals,
pro and eon, and striking a balance,
they should decide that my first term
had been fruitful enough of good to
warrant their giving me another. Any
man would be proud of such a verdict,
but I have not been willing, nor shall
I be, to purchase it at a sacrifice of
my freedom to do my duty as I see
It. My bsppiness is not dependent
upon any office and I shall go back
to private life with no heartburnings,
if the people, after an unprejudiced
review of my administration, conclude
that someone else can serve them to
their greater advantage.
'The truth is that political consid
erations have not weighed heavily
with me. I have tried to do in each
case wnat seemed to me the wisest
thing, regardless of its effect upon my
future.' Indeed, In more than one
case I have been perfectly conscious
whose bad blood would be stirred by
some act of mine, or some refusal to
act. The circumstance that some
persons who hall me after one appli
cation of equal justice, as a far seeing,
conservative patriot, denounce me af
ter the next, as an unreasoning radi
cal, does - not greatly disturb my
equanimity. I set that down as all
in the day's work."
TAFT MONEY OFFERED
Bet Makes Bio President Odds-On
Favorite.
The wager recently offered in New
York of $5000 to J4000. that the pres
ident will be re-elected If nominated,
seems to show that somebody has con
siderable confidence In the return of
the president's administration to pow
er. Somebody with S5000 believes
that Bill Taft can come back.
Money talks and some of the en
thusiastic backers of Mr. La Kollette,
Colonel Roosevelt and Woodrow Wil
son ought to come to the front and
take the short end of this bet. As a
sporting proposition, this Is a good
bet. even if he loses, but the fact that
tNre are no takers us yet speaks elo
quently. The oust, which necessarily
'..eta a clearer view of the president
and a more intimate knowlodse of his
work, from being closer to him, Is evi
dently pretty well satisfied with Pres
ident Taft and believes he will he re
elected. The bet will be allowed to
stand for some time, it is reported,
walling for some courageous enemy
