the Republican majority will offer Il to
Senator Logan. Quite number Of pohti.
clans in Washington are busily engaged in
urging bis election. And yet he is tho
only man in the Senate Of whom il can
be said that he was candidate before the
people for the Vice Presidency and Was re.
jscted. q
The friends Of the Illinois Senator point
to the fact that he was long time in se.
curing bis reelection to tho Senate, aud
that he lost the chAirmauship OF one com.
mittee and position on two others BY ths
new Administration, which cut of some Of
the pereuisites that belong TO the older
Senators. Make him President pro ten

him O nice private room and little pat.
