fore with hardly an instant's reflection
Mr.. Wheeler's name was proposed and in
stantly accepted by the convention.
Early in June of 1880 the writer happen
ing to be in Albany, met General Arthur
pacing up and down the platform OF the
train. General Arthur said that he was
on his way to Chicago. He was going to
the national convention.
II think we shall be able TO nominate
General Grant" said he, although the
break in the New York and Pennsylvania
delegation may make it somewhat diff.
cult. If Grant is not nominated no one
can now tell who will be. 1t cannot be
Sherman; it will not be Blaine"
HAS there been any talk about the vice
presidency, ?" General Arthur was asked.
NO" he said in reply. and speaking
with manner of indifference, II have
not heard any. Interest is ALI centered in
the presidential nomination. If we NOM
mate Grant l think it quite likely that
Levi 2. Morton may be nominated for vice
president"
General Arthur had no more idea that
he was to return from Chicago vice presi-
Dental candidate than he had that he
would ever be president of the United
States. His ambition was in a different
direction. He expected to be elected
United States senator in the following
His fate came as so many other politi-
cal fortunes and misfortunes do. with
out warning After Garheld was nomi-
mated those in authority went 10 the
New York delegates and said: "If you
will name your man he will be nomi-
mated for vice president" There was
some suggestion of Mr.. Morton, but he
shook his head when it was made to him.
Then they turned to Arthur. He sought
Senator Conk ling. who was then his bosom
friend. and he SAID:
Senator, they propose TO nominate me
for vice president. What do you think
of it?'
That is a matter for your personal con-
sheraton, general. If had not misun-
der>tood YOU. you viii decline to consider
the proposition"
But, senator. am inclined to consider
it favorably. 1t is q great honor. It
is most honorable office. | have never
been a candidate for elective office, and
this is my first and may be my only OPP
portunity. | think | shall accep. il. "
Conkling turned away. not caring to
make other respo Sc, and Arthur said to
those who waited upon him: If they
choose to nominate me. | shall accept"
Two years later President Arthur said 70
the writer: II was vice president long
enough TO realize that the popular con-
ception of that Office Is erroneous.
1t depends entirely upon the man
whether the office NAV be main
tanned with personal and party influence.
OF course there are no official opportuni-
ties. but there ought to be no curtailment
OF personal or party opportunities, and a
great man in that Office would be likely TO
raise II above the subordinate conception
which 1t now holds in the m lnfs 81 politl-
clans" +. JAY EDWARDS.

The Hon. Benjamin Sillimsn, who now

clans to belittle the office of vice president
was something of comparatively recent
growth. Il myself have seen this devel-
opment with amaZement, for | re-

interest created over the nomination for
the vice presidency was only second to
that which a canvass for the presidential
nomination caused. Moreover, | remem-

Butler declined to quit the held. pre-

Cameron was always OF the opinion that
Butter was one of those who regarded the
vice presidency as being beneath the
ambition of the abiest politicians. John
son was selected because he was South
ern man who had remained true to the
Union and had been OF vast service to the
Union cause. Historians are gradually
coming TO the opinion that Johnson was
man of extraordinary abilities and extra
ordinary weaknesses 1t has been asserted
on the authority of the New i ork Sun that
Mr.. Johnson was at times under the indu-

which astonished the nation. The editor

Schuyler Colfax was nominated for the
vice presidency with Grant because he had
been a very successful speaker of the House
OF Representatives during the most trying
period which followed Immediately after
the close Of the war His career in that
chair, however, has often been cited as
proof of the assertion that the vice presi-
dency Is a political graveyard. He
became unpopular and the newspaper
correspondents IN Washington under
TOOK, and with success, to defeat his re-
nomination. They prevailed upon the
national convention of 1872 to nominate

that an able man did not necessarily cur
tail his powers because he occupied the
vice presidential chair.
William A. Wheeler. of New York, was
nominated for vice president with
