When Governor Ralston of Indiana appointed the famous Tom Taggart to succeed in the United States Senate the late Benjamin F. Shively, of protest went up all over the coun- try. While it is realized that Taggart is an astute politician, he has had the making of Tom that many big men in public life, it was felt that he is not the exact type of man to wear the senatorial toga. On of all this protest Taggart probably foresaw the futility of seeking to hold his seat by being duly and properly elected in d the top November.
