A Good second to the prs,dent.

Vice. President Morton has shown during the
Encampmcnt week in Washington that not to
the President alone in the Government ig given
the faculty of making happy speeches un-
studied and OH the spur of the moment. There
was plenty of Government and dignity in the
address to the veterans at the dedication Of
Grand Army Place, but no politics. In every
thing good taste joined good judgment in pro-
viding intellectually the best. Vice President
Morton seems to be good second to President
Harrison on such an occasion as this.
