A BUSY CAREER.
In Wisconsin, where Postmaster Gen
eral Howe is best known, the news Of
his death caused a general gloom. The
postmaster general has had busy
life. He was born in Liverm ore, Ok
ford county, Maine, February Z, 1916
His academic education was obtained
IN the Readfeld Seminary, and in 1889
he was admitted to the bar and began
practice at Readtield. AS devoted
admirer of Henry Clay, he was elected
by the wings to the Maine legislature
in ,1845 Removing to Green Bay.
Wis, the latter part of the same year,
he was defeated as a wing candidate
for congress in 1913, the same year the
state was admitted into the Union. In
1850 he was elected ~ circuit Judge,
which office he held until 1855, at one
time being chief justice of the supreme
court Upon the organization of the
republican party in Wisconsin in 1854
he declared himself in sympathy with
its platform, and in 1857, two years
after retiring from the bench, he was
announced as candidate for United
States senator, but he failed to receive
the nomination because he refused to
subscribe to certain state rights views
then popular IN Wisconsin. But in
1861 he was elected to the senate, and
was re elected in 1867 for the term
ending in 1873, and again for the term
ending in 1879.
During his terms in the United States
Senate he was member of many inn
portaut committees, and in 1866 was a
delegate to the Philadelphia Loyalists
| Convention. He was one Of the earliest
advocates of emancipation, universal
suffrage, and of the right and expedi-
ency of establishing territorial govern
ments in the south. He took an active
part in the opposition to President
Johnson's policy, and one of his most
marked speeches during his last term
WAS an attack upon President Hayes
policy of Cancellation. He was select.
ed by President Garfield az member
of the commission to the Paris none
tary conference, and on December 90
