Good mien are get- ting $35 to $40 per month for the sea- son with board and laundry work’ Gardner, one of the press agents of the progressive organization. If what the progressives say is true, that the re-nomination of Taft means defeat for the Republican party in 1912, it might as well be accepted now that the next President of the United States isto be a Democrat. Mr. Taft seems certain of a re-nomination, This is because he has the necessary machinery to get the nomination. Gardner gives seven reasons why Taft should not receive a re-nomina- ‘tion: 1. His failure to receive indorse- ment at the hands of Roosevelt. 2. His alliance with Aldrich, Can- credited with connections with special privilege. 3. e hostility of the progressive wing, led by men like LaFollotte, Beveridge, Pinchot and Roosevelt. 4, The public disapproval of Taft’s bad faith in accepting the presidency asa progressive, and administering the office as a reactionary. 5. The bad effects of his support of Ballinger and eee to genuine conservation. 6. Taft’s acquiesence in the Ald- rich tariff bill, his use of patronage to co-erce progressives, his defeat of an income tax, etc. | 7. ‘The cumulative effect of these; non, Ballinger and others generally |. as seen in the repudiation of the party in the late elections. ‘ | Opposed to these are the facts that | he has the confidence of Wall street; that there is a strong sentiment in favor of giving any president a second term, and that the regulars in his party favor his renomination. But} the facts which practically cinch a re- nomination for Taft are these: 1, That the Republican organiza- tion is controlled by Big Business; 2. That the southern delegates are brought under Taft control by federa patronage and cash; 3. That the southern delegates combined with the delegates who can be delivered by state machines con- trolled by such as Penrose, Lorimer, Crane, Aldrich, Cartcr and Warren, make up two-thirds of the delegates to the national Republican convention. “Shall it be Taft and sure defeat,” demand the progressives, ‘or a pro- gressive Republican candidate with a chance to win?’’ It looks as if the answer is to be: “Taft and sure defeat!’’ Recipes.
