T TAFT Difficulty in Finding a Man to Take Secretary of State’s Place WASHINGTON. Nor. SO.—Mr. Taft has a number of patronage problems to solve between row and March 4. Perhaps th* most serious one con cerns the discovery of a man to take Ellhu Root's place In the state de partment. Another problem, *whlch is apt to prove more embarrassing. In volves ths placing of the numerous ambitious Ohio statesmen who 'hank er after high office. There are no end of aspirants for the various prospective vacancies In the Taft cabinet save for the atate department portfolio. Th# available men who have been discussed for this berth could be counted on the An gers of one hand without ac counting for all the fingers. Everyone admits that tho next sec retary of state will have a most dif ficult task tn following the steps of John Hay and Elthu Root. Postmaster General Meyer and Rep resentative Burton, of Ohio, ihave both been mentioned in a casual way as S osslflto successors of Mr. Root It t hardly likely, however, that either of them will be chosen. .Assistant Secretary Bacon Is understood to have an ambition to step Into Mr. Root’s •hoes. It Is a common remark that Mr. Tsft will practically be his own sec retary of atate. The same comment has been mad* regarding t>e secre tary of war. Mr. Taft haa an un usually large and Intimate knowledge of state department affairs, due In part to the fact that he practically ran that department several years ago during the prolonged absence of Mr. Root. His foreign travels have given him unuaual advantages for studying European and Oriental polltica. and there Is scarcely any phnae of the International relations of the United States with which he 1* not familiar. This, of course, will be of tremendous help to htm as president, and will aid In offsetting the shortcomings of the new secretary of state, provided ho Is unable to find a man qualified in every way to continue Mr. Root’s la bors. Settflnq With Claimants. Mr. Taft will have no end of trouble straightening out the numerous claimants for cabinet honors from his own state. He could All up the entire cabinet with Ohio republicans and not have an Incom petent official family, at that His task In this particular will be especially dis agreeable. because he will have to choose or perhaps two from a large number _ _.ien of whom he Is very fond and to whom he Is Indebted politically. Myron Herrick, of Cleveland, would not object to being secretary of the treasury: Arthur Vqrys believes he is up to cabinet slxe: Representative Burton could be so laced for giving way to C. P. Taft on the sonatorshlp bv a present of the state department portfolio: Wade Bills aspires to be attorney general: General Corbin Is willing to become secretary of war. In addition to thl# great array of available talent there Is Jamss R. Garfield, from Ohio, already In the cabinet and likely to stay there. New York now haa three men In the cabinet. Root Cortelyou and Straus. If there should be three Ohio- men In the Taft cabinet, ths* would naturally be some criticism, but It seems that less at tention la given to geographical consider ations in cabinet making than was form erly the case. It cost Mr. Taft a sharp 8 pang to appoint Mr. Hitchcock chalrmr.n f tne national committee, because In do- ig so he had to thrust aside his personal friend, Arthur Vorys. Ohio politicians expect the latter to get something good under the new administration, but so far he haa not filed a claim on any special Don’t Sink Money in a Cheap Derby You can’t expect good material- good workmanship—Fast color and permanent finish in a DERBY for less than $3—but you SHOULD EXPECT the best real values at that price, and IF you buy a HAWES you’ll get it.

Feeling that the mothers of the city, ouetit to knew this so as to better pro-', feet their cMMrtn against esefi earetem- ( ness. If nettling mere. Is mr excuse for, job. h Another Problem. Another problem for Mr. Taft la to de termine whether or not to retain Secre tary Wilson In the cabinet. If ho de cide* to make a change In the depart ment of agriculture It is generally believ ed that the new man will be Gifford llnchot. The latter Is a Roosevelt favo rite. and haa become known aa one of th# few aclentlat* In the government service who have displayed flrst class, practical result-getting methods. It Is generally regarded as certain that Tlnchot will land In the cabinet before th* end of the Taft administration. Mr. Wilson has an ambition to surpass the record of Albert Gallatin, who served as secretary of ths treasury under three administrations, two with Johnson and ono with Madison. Mr. Wilson has al ready served through nearly three ad ministrations under two presidents, nnd If he Is continued under Mr. Taft he will havq broken all records for cabinet ser vice since the republic was founded. Everybody takes It for granted that Frank Hitchcock will be the new post master general, although It I* said that the placo has not been formally tendered to him yet Mr. Cortelyou Is willing to remain where he is. and If ♦.hlj* arrange ment should be made It would give much aatltfactlon to the large financial Inter ests with whom Mr. Cortelyou stands very high by reason of his admirable work during th* panto.a year ago. Attorney General Bonaparte Is slated to go. and probably will be. succeeded by Frank Kellogg, the aggressive trust bust ing special *agent of the Rpoeevelt admin istration. Secretary Straua, It la gener ally believed, will be continued In tne de partment of commerce and labor, where his work haa met the approbation of th* commercial Interests. As Secretary Wrlrht was practically a Taft appointee In thd Philippines, there seems to be no rescan to doubt that hs will stay In the war department If he cares to do so. There Is much uncertainty about the navy department, the general opinion bv- tng that Mr Taft will find a new man to succeed Mr. Newberry after March 4. SHIPPING NEWS SAVANNAH.
