or cash After serving term In tho state
legislature he was elected to the Fortieth,
Forty-flrst and Forty-second congresses, and
on May 90, 1876, took his seat In the United
States senate, having been chosen to fill the
unexpired term Of Senator Ferry, deceased.
In 1879 he was succeeded by Orville II. Platt,
and thereafter turned his attention to man
aging the national affairs of his party.
His management practically began in 1872,
when, as a member Of the national commit
tee, he was charged with important duties;
In 1876, his work was still more valuable, and
in 1880 he was unanimously named chair
man of the committee, and again in 1884 and
1888 His great wealth, extensive acquaint-
ance and shrewd business management en-
abled him to do the best possible for his party,
and almost to wrest victory from the jaws Of
defeat. 1t may be said that he sacrificed him
self to his party, as he persisted in remaining
at his post In the performance Of all his duties
to the end of the campaign, though his physi-
clan had warned him a month before that 1t
was at the peril of his life. When the task
was completed the reins fell from his nerve
less hands, the reaction left him completely
exhausted, and he never recovered any fair
measure Of strength. His native ability was
improved only by common school educa-
ton and long experience, and both TN bust
ness and politics he was noted for the prompt
ness with which he met an emergency.

THE Democratic national committee
will meet June II, to select Il successor
to the late w. ii. Barnum. Senator
German and Representative Scott have
been urged to accept the place but it Is
generally thought Calvin S. Brce will be
chosen. There is disposition to poke
fun at "Cal" and call him rainbow
chaser" because in the late campaign he
fooled away time and money on the hope
that the free trade seed would take
root in the Northwest. But he was moi
the only Democrat fooled IN that partic'
ular, and az Brice has pretty good way
of securing funds and spends his own
literally, it is thought he will be honor.
ed with the place of chairman. The
friends of Senator Payne are said TO be
particularly in favor of Brice for the po'
sition as they fear that he has an idea Of
running for u. S. Senator from Ohio.
