The tactics of some of the fi iends of Senator Foraker are greatly de plored by his friends in Washing ton as well as by all republicans. Their latest manoeuvre is the cir culation of the report, chiefly among Masonic orders, and that includes a large per cent, of the politicians of the country, Demo crats as well as Repubiicans, that Mrs. Taftisa Catholic. Mrs. Taft nor her family has ever had any affiliation with the Catholic church. She is an Episcopalian as every body knows, and the Secretary is an Unitarian. The inference from the circulation of this falsehood is obvious that the friends of the Sen ator feel obliged to resort to any measure, however pnsillanimous, to boost their candidate for the Presidency. Comments were heard on every hand among Republicans upon the recent developments in New York in connection with the Hughes boom. The two events of interest were the appointment of a commit tee of the Republican Club of New York city, comprising some of the best known members of that organ ization, to push the Hughes boom; and the governor's message to the legislature. It is declared that the first practical effort of the commit tee will be to induce the Republi can county committee, at its meet ing January 1(5, to put through the resolution endorsing Gov. Hughes, proposed at the last meeting but which went over. Much disappointment was ex pressed over the governor's message to the legislature. The natural expectation had been that he would have something to say about some at least of the many national ques tions which - ' are absorbing the minds of tin* country, and there was much criticism heard on every hand that he should have confined himself so exclusively on state af fairs.
