Taia change aa mum about uot tbrosujb oac, but maay came, la ta tint plae, tb general grumbling agaiaat President Taft, waioh, after ail. hat bars very einular to all Srt yar rxperieacee, ia ehamring to beerty aom mendatione and iniioreeiuenta of th President personally and nia admiaietra tion. Lincoln aad Grant aad Harriaon aad MuKiuley, and, ia fact, arary Re publican Preaideut were found fault with duriag a portica of faeir term, but thia eventually gave way to aaaritad applaua which warn tha people found aut tha truth. The people ara bow finding out tha truth about President Taft. Tbey art learning in tha firet plaot, ia pita of Democrat! aniarapraaantation, that th tariff law ia atoat eucceeaful. No koneat aian, ba ha Democratic or Re publioaa, tan aay that the rcault of tha patation of that law ba not been aioat beaaflciel ia every way, both from a rev ewu aundpoint aad from that of tat ploym.nt nnd wage, aad it ia vary vi dant that Mi.

At tha and of tha ft-' cal year all three reamlu will ha very apparent in tha annual atatamenta, and then th people will give to thia admia latration credit for a degree of economy that ba not been aeen for many year. With all fair minded man President Taft haa been one of the moat popular Proaidv-nU we ever bad and thw pop ularity ia cuing to extend to maay of taoae who nave eea It to critirie him. Ai regard th legislation yet to he en acted during the preaent tension of Con green, it will depend upon the coure taken br mat of the eo-called insur genta. Undoubtedly they hare tha power to delay or prevent th fo-called admin -iatratia program, and it ia to b even whether they will exercise tbia power, or will work and rote with the regular party majority fn adapting a many of ihe President's measures as poaaible. Aa the return of Colonel RnneeneJt romea nearer and nearer, there h. of course, been much speculation aa to what, hit attitude would lie toward lh' adiuinitmtion. No one of hia friend baa bad any doubt as to where be would be found, and yet because he haa not seen lit to make any definite ttement an impression baa gone forth, largely fathered by the Democrats, that he waiiM red b found with his old party associates t i now knovn. however, from private letters, just what his stand v ill be. He will Htipnart the administration in every particular. He will announce that lie will not be a candidate for President in 1011, that he will not he a candidate for Senator or Congressman from New York, or any other position whatever. He will, of course, take an active part in New York state politics and aill un doubtedly he glad to ace his former sec rotary end the present collector at the port of New York. Mr. Lob. made can didate for ftv emor. This proTm would undoubtedly reuaite all factions in New York state, and lead to victory next November not only in the election of the state officers, but in the return of the present delegation to Congress. In Ohio, which is conceded to be one of the moi important battle ground of the year, the Republican party is more hartunious than for a quarter of a een tury. (Jovrrnor Harmon is loaing streneth every day. and a large portion of the IKmocratic party la oppoei to hia nomination, ahirh. however, will not be prevented, but it seems now that the Republican candidate will be aa vic torious an.l no Republican seats lost in the liii.kcvr state. There migtit arie an exigency wrwre Colonel Roosevelt will take an active part there; he ail! un doubtedly make several speeches durincr the campaign, ajid in these apeeehe he will inrlori"' the tariff law and will in dorse Mr. Taft 'n every particular and bis sllrrisnee to his own aocallcd policies, which will be continued as far aa posai ble by the present administration. The Republican congressional commit tee uas already done a far greater amount of work than wa ever before attempted so early in the campaign. This work will be continued without inter ruption nntil the first of November. ,r err memlier of Congress who can spar" the time lor one speei-b or m-uy will be drafted into the active work of the cmnten during the fall and th" speech maKinr of the eonm-easional campaign of 1P10 will no doubt exceed that of any previous year.

The view la expressed here that the appointment of Mr. Brown will have the effect of assuring him of the convention nomination for the central rommission ership which this appointment aarriee, hia endorsements baring come from every section of the state, making it a fore gone conolusioa that hia nomination to succeed himself will be without oppoai tioe. Also, it will leave W. T. Lee and other western candidate for th seat to be vacated by Commissioner 8. U Roger free to make that race without the han dicap that waa given by the strong cam paiga that waa being waged for thia nam tna t ton by Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown will take the oath of of flea aa commissioner within the next day or two. and probably early next week there will be th election of a new eecretary to the commission to succeed Mr. Brown. A very great deal of work ia to be done by the commission within the next few months, including the tax assessments for tk entire state. Boy Waa Hanged. By The Aesociated Press, i lVland. Kla..
