AND OPPOSITION OF FORAKERITES TELLS. HOT SPRINGS. Yu July 22. Mr. Taft Is greatly worried over the Ohio situation. He wants to carry his own state and is making all sorts of over tines of peace to Senator Foraker ami the latter's friends, but like the pardon that had arrived after the man had been hung the Forakerttes say that these overtures come too late. Foraker. of course, good politician I that he is. lias declared publicly thu* he will support Taft but it is a well known axiom that 111 polities the hatch ets that are buried publicly for the sake of regularity are often exhumed ‘privately and Mi Taft, having some political knowledge himself through having held political office since childhood is publicly taking Foraker at his word but in private he is doing a lot of discounting of this same as surance from hire Alarm Joe. A few days igo Mr. Taft spent long hours with A. 1. Vorys, his Ohio man uger. discussing the Ohio situation and Vorys Is going baca to the Ruck eye state to do the best iho can to straighten out the tangle that he I helped make w hile acting us fireman on the steam roller. The Foraker forces in Ohio are con siderable and they are rrulv sore against Tafi and his Ohio outfit and word has come down her** many times during the past few weeks that plenty of the Forakerltes are openly boast ing that nothing will civ** in**m great er pleasure than to aid in prevent ing Taft from carrying his own state. And Ohio, Too. Word also r*a* hes here from Ohio that situ*- tie nomination of Bryan and Kern at D*nv*i and the return of the Democrat!' W aders f>» the Buck (eye state that Where has been a lot of Democratic jubilation v*-r the prospects of tarrying Ohio for th*> Democratic ticket this year because of the bitter Republican row. There is no question that Taft would like to have set* 11 someone other than John W Kern of Indiana nominated for the vice presidency at Denver, for he had hoped to carry the lloosier state. Since th«* dose of the j Denver convention word lias com.* from Indiana more *han once that Kern is going to hdp tin* Democratic party very materially throughout that state. Fairbanks' friends are non-* too kindly disposed toward what hap peued to the vice pi* -blent at Indiana ;*n*l thf fact 1 liar Mr Fairbanks, t (Republican vice president of the Unit ed Statc-s. presided at the reception to Mr. Kern, the- Democratic candidate for tin* vie** presidency, on his return to Indianapolis a few days since Is not looked upon in a very kindly way her** by the Taft kit* hen cabinet. Wisconsin in Danger Wisconsin is another state in which Mr. Taft realizes a lot of work will have to be dune in if its electoral vote is to be saved for tin* Republican column. DaFollette’a assurances of support are not seriously regarded, for It is well known here that he feel the sting of having all of his plat form recommendations tossed out of the Chicago convention. The fact ihat these very recommendations of LaFollelte’s thut the Chicago con vention rejected were embodied in the platform adopted by the Democratic 1 (invention at Denver, and the know! dge that there is a mighty friendly feeling existing between Bryan and LaFollette 1b causing a lot of uneasi ness in the Taft camp as regards tho vote of Wisconsin. It is realized thut It will he hard for foreign campaign orators to go into Wisconsin during the campaign with nothing but a lot of hoi air to work ofT on the intellec tual IjaFollctte Republicans of that istate. The repudiation of Wisconsin's t latform recommendations is keenly felt bv the DuFolletto men. and word comes from that state that there is plenty of secret Jubilation among the DaFolletters because the Democratic plat from proclaims for the direct tiom i (nation of Unites States senators, the 1 publicity of campaign contributions and the physical valuation of rull roads SAYS HE LOST $2,500 BUT DIDN’T REPORT IT Whetlu r Jacob H. St. John, of Mont gomery lost $2,500 from his trousers pocket and made no complaint to the police or other effort to recover the money.
