Sometimes when a fellow gets fair
start, it doesn't take him long to reach a
very respectable altitude on the ladder of
fame. Particularly is this the case, when
he applies himself assiduously to thetask
of climbing. As case in point, we
may instance the fact that not quite a
year ago the Hon. E. r. P. Baker was a
very modest candidate before the De-
mocracy of this county for nomination
for the position of Representative in the
Legislature. Well, he was successful in
securing the nomination, and in due
time was elected to fill the important
Office. Very shortly after his entering
upon the scenes of his labors, he drew
up a bill for the protection of Miners,
which was held in such favorable es-
TEEN by his fellow legislators that they
made law of it almost instanter. This
so elated the Sentinel on the Hooking
that he at once pronounced in favor of
further promotion of the author of the
bill, assigning as his reason for so doing,
that he had indubitable evidence that
that gentleman had by his timely Off
cial ser vices rendered himself capable OF
adding 10000 more votes to the Demoe-
racy than "any other man" in the ranks
or among the leaders thereof, and named
the Office of Secretary of State as a it
position in which to install him. Other
papers of the State took up with the
idea, and Mr.. Bakers name has since
been exclusively mentioned in connec
ton with that Office; and the working
mems Advocate, of Chicago, anticipa
ting his spreading fame, presented in I
recent issue, an admirable portrait o
him, together with a complimentary bi
ographical sketch of his life.
Now this is the kind of conspicuous
ness and fame that does a fellow som
good. The whole business is thrust up
on him all of a sudden, as it were, 8
that much of its relish is not lost b.
ceaseless scratching to attain the oh
ject in view; and Mr.. Baker is entitle
to the congratulations of his numerou
friends and admirers in this county 70
the marked success which has attende
his brief and thus far unassuming pub
lie career. We think Baker is the ma
for the Democracy.
