WITH EVERY HOPE OF SUCCESS.
In hla letter or acceptanco Mr. Tuft
aya: "ir I am elected president I

Senator HurrowB, urging tho adoption
ot Buch a law, havo any effect upon
tho Republican congress?
Did tho leconimondatlon of Mr.
Roosovelt havo any effect upon tho

Tho Taft letter and tho Rrtojwvolt

gress while a presidential election
waa approaching, if a Republican con
gross would not act under Hiobo cir
cumstances with what reason does Mr.
Tart say that aftor tho presidential
election ho would urgo a measure
"with overy hope or success?"
Tho Republican party in national

the publicity favored by Mr Taft Is

ror the people to prollt by tho Infor

In hla speoch or nccoptanco Mr.
Taft anya: "With respect to tho elec

sonally I nm Inclined to ravor It, hut
It Is hardly a party question."
What la It R it is not a pnrty ques

very proasing one. Tho Democratic
party duclarod In favor of it. The Re
publican paity Is silent on It. And tho
host that tho Republican candidate
convinced slnco the convention or tho
popularity of (ho plank can do, Is
to say "poisonally. I am Inclined to
