time his political life began. That
year he was presidential elector on the
Seymour ticket, and was also elected
to the Legislature. Reelected in 1870,
he was chosen as speaker of the house
In 1872 he was again presidential
elector, and in 1875 member of the
constitutional convention. In 1876 he
was elected lieutenant governor, and
three years later, as previously said, he
succeeded to the governorship. He
was then elected by the people, and
held the position till 1884. When Mr..
Cleveland was elected president the
first time, the friends of Mr.. Jarvis
urged his appointment to a cabinet POI
sition. Instead of giving him cabinet
portfolio, Mr. Cleveland appointed him
minister to Brazil. This appointment
was deemed by Mr.. Jarvis friends as
rather small for his deserts. In his
own state Mr.. Jarvis popularity is in
a great measure due to the fact that he
is essentially one of the people, and his
humble beginnings count greatly in
his favor. In politics he is SO careful
that he has always managed to retain
the friendship of all factions, and at
this time the populists look upon him
with special favor.

high character that he was not only
respected but loved by all who knew
him. The family was poor, and the
son in his boyhood had to work on a
farm. BY hard work and economy he
managed to fit himself for and to pass
through Randolph-Macon college, from
which he was graduated III 1860. Then
he taught school for year. The war
had now begun, and he enlisted as
private in the confederate army. He
was promoted step by step, until in
1864 he was captain. At the battle
of Drury's Bluff his arm was shattered
by bullet, and his career as a soldier
ended. This arm has ever since been
