would be a fit climax to his long life
of public service, and with his mag
nificent mansion he could make his ad-
ministration a great social one He
has been at the head of the committee
on foreign affairs of the senate for
many years, and would make more
efficient secretary of state than any
nan now talked Of. He has never
before had a chance to be at the head
of the state department, though the
treasury has twice been within his
grasp. The first time was when Sal
mon P. Chase was appointed, more
than a generation ago, when Sherman
was still in his forties. Lincoln gave
him to understand that he could have
the place, but Sherman was then in
congress and wanted to be speaker Of
the house. He failed in this, but got
to be senator. Shortly after Hayes
was elected he wrote Sherman that he
wanted him to be secretary of the
treasury, and Sherman once said to
me that he took the position largely
because he wanted to carry out his
resumption policy. He told me that
he did not find the work especially
hard, though his term in the treasury
department was one Of the most ex-
citing in our history.
