We are not advised of any Re publican spell-binders who will elaborate uptai the “full dinner pall.” Now that Soherr and Swisher have about an erjual number of del egates. a man by the name or Hearne can do a few Interesting atunts with his fifty-two delegates The. Democrats of Mercer will name a county ticket next Saturday which will win and give the county an efficient set of-officials. Mr. Taft has posed as the pro gressive candidate for the Re.pnh’i can presidential nomination. He professes to favor an income tax. a graduated inheritance tax. and a campaign publicity hill. oil of which the Republican platform makers rejected. The Republican platform might he said to be after the “stand pat" fashion. A "stand pat" man was nominated for vie • president. If Mr. Taft favors the above measures he Is evidently with the wrong crowd. In the middle ages a ruler could designate his successor. Thrones and the right to sit thereon as sov ereigns were willed as readily as “My Lady’s Diamond." Rut a new day had dawned and the rule of absolute monarch abolished. It i h worthy nmbltion to aspir ■ to the highest office in the land Mr Roosevelt had the undeniable right to dictate his successor and use the all-powerful Influence of his admin istration to make the nation do his will? President Roosevelt has natnel TV. H Taft as his sucre^-or because Taft favored "My Policies." and is a man after the president's own heart. Mr Taft is "like unto HIM." but as a humorist ha? well said, "he is the lesser of the two Siamese twins ” The pcopl * are •willing for Mr Roosevelt to run for president, and they might elect him again, hut when it cones to dic tating his successor -he plrlt of Un American people will rebel.
