cr in his fight? Is tho provaletfl
discontent an indication that tho la
r boring men will demand a change
In tho government?
"Thorb" Is no good reason to ho
llovo that Rockofollor's Support of
Taft wlll Btnmpodo tho votors to

accentuates greatly Iho protest
against tho iiiuluo power of wealth
in polltlcA.
'The' result In Indiana; Ohio and
Now York Ih closo. If any one of
theso states Is snvod to Taft, it Is tho
result of tho arousing of tho com
mercial and omploying classes find
morftltH of apathy. What the Re
publicans fear Is that Rookefollor'B
endorsement of Taft may turn
enough votes in those Btates to oloct
l)r.vnn. . , , . .
"A woll-lnformod man of Now
York fluyn that Rockefeller's endorse

Domocrnta. Ho Bays that Rockefel

and dqalroH Taft 'a oloctlon. Rouko
feller was not awaru that his un
popularity, nuya this man, and
thought that hie endorsement would
really bonoflt Tnft. Tho oil niitgnutn
Is really sorry that It Iiub reacted
against Tnft, ho Bays."
After tho publication of tho Presi

thon tho ProBldonf wro(o to LUloy;
again saying: ' ''
"Tho Prcsldont has not Interfered
