ment is on foot to erect a suitable
monument to his memory, and sum,

sufficient has been raised. We are

the war to his death on the battle

"Of lawgivers," says Macaulay,
sin whom the speculative element
has prevailed, to the exclusion of the
practical, the world has during the
last eighty years been singularly
truthful. To their wisdom Europe
and American have owed scores OF
abortive constitutions, scores of con
situations which have lived just long
enough to make a miserable noise
and have then gone off in convul
sions."

Senator Allen G. Thurman, of Ohio,
is spoken of for the Vice-Presidencv.
That position would add nothing to
the honors of this grand old states
man, but he would honor the Office.
1t Is likely that Senator Thurman
would decline the position, but if he
would accept, his nomination would
add to the enthusiasm with which
the Democrats will sweep the country
