WHAT OE MIR. REEDp

In looking about Tor a suitable running
mate Mr.. Mckinley's eyes are said to rest
with special longing upon the sturdy form
of Thomas Bracket Reed If this is true
ii speaks Well for Mr. McKmley's discern
meut, for he could hardly find anybody that
would fill the bill more satisfactorily a
clean public and private life, commanding
ability, al admirable presiding officer, an
uncompromising Republican; in brief, one
who would honor the office fully as much
as the office would honor him Aside from
party considerations there are few men
who would be more satisfactory TO the great
public than Mr.. Reed, for in the event that
by some stroke of fate he 81 ould be called
upon to occupy the executive chair, the peo-
pie would feel sure that lie would do so
honorably and well There can be no
question, therefore, that Mr. Reed would
add great strength to the Republican ticket
and Mr.. Mckinley is to be credited with
good judgment for his choice, if such be his.
But how about Mr.. Reed? The only reply
he has been known TO make so far to tie
suggestion that he would be a desira bic
acquisition for second place ON the ticket
was comprised in the monosylIable huh"
or something like that. Whether that was
ness to consider the proposition is a mItter
which the person that approached Mr.. Reed
was unable to resolve to his satisfaction
II is more than probable, however, that he
does not regard the proposition with
exuberant delight, for Mr.. Reed is not gen
orally thought TO be especially fond OF
playing second fiddle. The moldy at
mosphere of the fog bank" is no more
To his liking than it was 10 Mr.. Baine's,
and the rather tame occupation Of sitting
in the chair of the presiding officer of tue
Senate without having tie power to con
troll i'll any WY the action of thatbody, such
as is vested in the Speaker of the House of
Representatives. is hardly a CongeniaI one
to the gentleman from Maine.
What could he gain by accepting the
nomination for the Vice Presidency, and
by being elected to the place? 1t is quite
probable that Mr.. Reed has not altogether
given up the hope of occupying the White
House. He is 81 i'll a young man, as years
are counted with reference to the Presi-
dency, Ind four years lie nee Fortune
and the changes on the political field
may be more kind to him than they are
at this time. He knows very well that
the Vice President is not the man whom
any party is likely to chose for its leader
in President ial campaign: at least, there
Toamanlike Mr.. Reed, therefore, theproffer
OF the second place on the ticket cannot be
very alluring, aud, taking one consideration
with another, if it were made, he would
in all likelihood deciiue with thanks

y URING' the discussion on the resolution
providing annual clerks for members
~ of the House, MFR. Skinner. Populist
of North Carolina, took occasion to
personally compliment aud congratu-
late Speaker Reed, in the course of
speech opposing the. resolution This is
the first tine during. the session that a
Representative has SO, openly referred on
the floor to- MF. Reeds Presidential as
pirations and his remarks would have at
tracted a. sensation had they beeu more
generally heard. -.-t
Tie folio wing are Mr. SINNERS con-
gratulatory remarks to the Spea ker:
Mr.. Speaker, from the beginning of the
present session.: while opposing you in
political sentiment. / have Teen in con slant
sympathy with your policy, when con-
frouted with a threatening Treasury de-
ficit, to so far us possible exercise economy,
and have watched with approving interest
now wisely aud adroitiy you have welded
thcpruuing knife 0 Yerth Rivers and HHrbors
Committee, theP uhlic Buildings and G rounds
Committee, the Naval Affairs Committee
and the Appropriations Committee and
others. BY this bold stand for economy
the country knows you have lost in pOpu-
larity, even it may be to the extent OF
losing for the present the highest office in
the gift of the American people.
THE sober second thought of the people,
when full realizing the surrounding Condi-
tious, will say. We'll done, thou good and
faithful servant and the sacrifice or pres
ent personal ambition upon the altar of
present duty Will surely reap its Just and
merited reward. loud applause).
1--WE ought to te at least as brave and
manly as the Speaker and follow his ex-
ample and sacrifice this more or less per
sona legislation when confronted with a
deficient Treasury, when he, by the eXer-
else of such public frugality, has hazarded
his claims upon the 2 Presidency"

a. HERE were several rounds of laughter
and applause in the House when
Speaker Reed. evidently preoccup;ed
with thoughts OF the approaching
National Convention OF the Republican
party. in recognizing Mr.. JOY, OF Missouri
said:
The gentleman from ST.. Louis
The point of the joke, as it presented
itself to the members. lay in the fact that
Mr. JOY is the only one in the Missouri
delegation who advocates the nomination
of Mr.. Reed for the Presidency. 1t was
consequently naturally suggestive that the
Speaker might depend upon Mr.. Joy,
who is a resident OF st. Louis, to render
him some material aid during the con-
tinuance OF the great convention. In any
event the incident served the purpose of
affording temporary amusement.
