and it is to be noticed that not even the Sc
verest OF his critics has ventured to suggest
that he is unfit.
Sir Henry Norman joined the Bengal
army In 1874 and served as adjutant to tho
Thirty first native infantry throughout the
Punjab campaign in 1850 He was in suc-
ceeding campaigns; was at the relief of
Lucknow and the operations at Cawnpore.
He was in 1862 military secretary to the
government of India; in 1870 member of
the viceroy's council, and in 1878 member
OF the council of India in Londcn. In 1888
he was appointed governor of Jamaica, and
IN 1883 was transferred to Queensland. He
is about 65 years of age and has won hon
ors and decorations enough to entitle him

He Has Distinguished Himself In the Mil
itary and Diplomatic Service.
The appointment of Sir Henry Wylie
Norman to be viceroy of India seems to
have taken the political world of England
by surprise. 1t was unexpected and in
many respects at variance with presidents
and the unwritten laws that have generally
prevailed. The custom has been to appoint
only civilians to the place India is of
course largely held by military domination,
but it has not been deemed polite to empha-
size that fact by making u soldier viceroy.
Service under the government in India has
also generally been considered grave dis
qualification, the theory being that the
viceroy should not be man of local or pro
vincial views but one who will govern in
the interest Of the whole empire and not
alone of India itself.
Both these theories have been violated by
Sir Henry's appointment. He is a soldier
and the greater part of his military service
has been rendered in India besides which
he was for many years a government offi-
cial there. Sir Henry's experience of five
years as governor of Jamaica and nearly
five years as governor OF Queensland, sup
plemented by his intimate knowledge Of
Indian affairs, ought certainly to be con-

He is an ugly customer to tackle.
Senator Stewart has had remarkable
career. A native of New York, his par
ents took him to the western reserve of
Ohio. He earned little money teaching
school and went to Yale. The gold fever
of 1910 carried him to California, where
he worked with spade and pick.
A Mining Incident.
Though only stripping, he had quail
ties of leadership and possessed the gift
OF CAB. This was shown III remarkable
way. AT Washoe there was big camp
of miners. For a year or two the most of
them had been away from civilization
and had not seen woman. One day n
miner came running into camp, breath
less and excited, and shouted: "Petti-
coats! Petticoats!" If he had hcralded
the approach of an earthquake, the ex-
citement could not have been greater
He was piled with questions.
In half an hour his story was corrob-
Grated by the appearance of prairie
schooner drawn by pair of mules, with
lank Missourian on the seat. The
miners surrounded him and asked to
SEQ his woman. But the woman did not
care to show herself. She remained hid
den in tho hold of the ship of the desert.
Sullenly the miners retired They were
disappointed. They were grieved. A

This suggestion was at once adopted.

of his school days, but was forced to leave
college by the death of his father in 1862.
He received his A. B. degree, however, in
1870 after he had begun to distinguish him
self professionally and In politics.
On the outbreak of the war Mr.. Green

to get commission. In this he also failed
and after five months service was sent

After recovering his health he resumed
his legal studies and was admitted to the
bar in 1868 In 1865 he was elected to the
common council and reelected in 1869.
From 1871 TO 1913 he was a school commit
teeman. In 1874 he was appointed n spe-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-In the crisis of

er IT there ever was one. In this contest
his unwavering confidence, his contempt
for the opposition, have been q tower of
strength to the silver managers. When
hope has failed them, Stewart instilled
courage. When they talked of accept
ing unsatisfactory terms of settlement,
the patriarch from Nevada nerved them
to stand for better things.
Stewart is known as the man who is
always ready to make speech. He
takes pride in his ability to hold the
floor for hours and days at time and
has even threatened to speak for solid

who is acquainted with his history and
characteristics will doubt his ability.

such feat should he feel driven to it
by the exigencies of battle. OF course
he could not stand on the floor night and
day, but by having the clerk read long
extracts from books and speeches while
he was sleeping i'll his committee room
there would be practically no limit to
the time during which he might hold
the senate.
There is no doubt of Stewards courage,
no matter what else may be said about
him. He has said to the young men who
are with him in the silver fight that he
will, alone and single handed, hold one
night If the young men, three OF four of
them together, will take the next night.
