The struggle for the presidential - dential nomination is going to call out the best intelligence and the highest character of or ganizing ability in the republi can party. As viewed from u distance it looks like Sec. Taft and Gov. Ilughes of New York weru the most prominent of the candidates. The party will not go far wrong with either of these men as its candidate. Both have been prominent in public and private life , and both have made good in every under taking. Sec. Taft has handled some weighty problems and in each instance has settled the difficulty with satisfaction to his country. As Govern'or of the Philippine Islands he did dislructive work for his country and achieved reat personal reuown by his masterly di plomacy and far seeing states manship. His management of the late Cuban difficulty was almost as great a trimph as his Philippine ndm lustration. Sec. Taft is a brilliant lawyer whose mental temperament is as pure and broad as though no trivial technicalities nor high sounding constitutional phrases had ever escaped the fertile of the trust lawyers. If the weather of the first three days of January govern the first three months of the year , some enterprising citizen might as well begin plans for an ice plant in this city next summer. f A GOOD BANK ACCOUNT is exceedingly comforting- times of need , and it inav be said of Falls Citv Banks that vou can get your money and that in cash , when you wish it.
