The Death Of Senator Chandler

will be heard with general sorrow. What
ever were the faults of the dead Senator it
may he truthfully said of him that he was
honest, sincere, generous; and he had the
confidence and respect of the people as far
as those qualities are concerned. Senator
Chandler was representative type of Amer
lean character. Born and reared under the
most unfavorable circumstances for educa-
ton and culture, by his own efforts be accu-
mulated a vast fortune he acquired a self
gained education; and entering public life,
he was chosen United States Senator from
the State of his adoption, and at the untime-
ly close of his life still occupied that position,
the highest in the gift of the people of his
State.
Senator Chandler was born in Bedford
New Hampshire, in 1913 went TO what was
then the Great West and entered in the mer-
camille business in Detroit, Michigan. His
industry, energy and acumen were such
that in u few years he was at the head
Of the heaviest firm in the State in
| the line wholesale dry goods, and here
he acquired immense wealth-in the dispen-
saiion of which he was as generous as the
most enthusiastic philanthropst could de-
sire. In everything pertaining to the public
good and involving a call on ones bank &C
count he was prominent every worthy OBJ
ject was generously assisted: no poor man
was ever turned from his door empty handed:
and in private life he dispensed profuse
and magnificent hospitality.
As TO his public life, he was lifelong,
consistent Republican. He ran on their
ticket for Governor of Michigan in 1852
(having the year previous been elected
mayor of Detroit, and was defeated
He was afterwards elected United States
Senator, taking his seat in the
Thirty fifth Congress, as the successor of
Hon. Lewis Cass, and was reelected in 1868,
and again at the expiration of his second
term In 1874, by combination of cir
cumstances too familiar to be rccounted. he
was succeededby Hon. Isaac p. Christiancy
In October, 1875, Mr.. Chandler was APP
pointed Secretary Of the Interior. and served
in that capacity with distinguished credit to
himself and acceptance to the people. Last
year, Judge Christiancy resigning the Sem
atorship, Mr.. Chandler was chosen to fill his
place. During the present political campaign
he has been one Of the most popular speak
ers on the Republican side, and in Maine
Massachusetts, Ohio and New York he has
done good service for the party; and it was
while actively engaged in its work that he
died-and in him Death took an heroic, man
ly soul, kindly, honest and fearless.
Mr.. Chandler leaves wife and daughter
an only child-the wife of the Hon. Eugene
Hale of Maine
