...later becoming county attorney. When Taft filed for governor, the county organization ordered a rousing anti-Taft vote "to show what Hamilton County Republicans really think of Charles P. Taft." To show what he really thought of the organization and presumably to protect his prestige in future elections, seven-term Councilman and Mayor (1955-57) Taft mailed 3,000 vote-seeking letters to city Republicans. Inevitably, the feud spread beyond Cincinnati.
