TAFT WINS MICHIGAN;

Detroit, Fob, 4. Mlolilgan Is for
Tatt. 6t tbo twenty-eight delegates
from this state to tho nntlonal con

tho Bocretary of Wnr. Tho remain

No ono now denies that Michigan
Is a Taft atnto. There In no serious
opposition to tho Tnft programme.

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

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
