gressive in his endeavor 10 bring about
Fut so far as we remember, he never
jumped the traces on state or ma
ticnal ISSUES and his manner of de-
Tending his convictions has invariably
been clean and respectable. 1t Is easy
TO perceive from his conduct in the
war department that he is not man
to be easily Influenced" in the polit-
cal sense. In fact, at Washington
those who fail to get what they want
ont OF him call him cold-bloodcd. But
this very ability to hew to the lire OF
duty undeilccted by personal or po-
litical considerations Is the secret Of
his strength. It is what the public
service needs at this time in the war
department and IL corruicnds the man

citizens who Judge such matters i'm
partially.
we do not fully understand why
Secretary Root should care to be vica
president. With all possible respect to
that office 1t is an office under present
circumstances beneath him. The hon
or connected with 1t is unsubstantial:
the opportunities directly connected
with it are inconsdcrab'e. Except so
far as he could create opportunities for
effective service not specifically COM
pretended within the constitutional
limits of the Office, our impression is
that a man Of MIR. Roots ncrvoua
temperament. habtuatcG all his life
to hard work in the graphing with
live problems, would feel out of place
az vice president. Mr.. Hobart created
such opportunities until disease force
him tn halt Mr. Root undoubtedly
would not remain idle, Yet the work to
be done in the war department during
the next few years is quite important
enough and quite full enough Of large
possibilities in patriotic contribution

ambition for the vice presidency is
difficult to comprehend
However if he is really a candidate
for the place, the public is to be con
graduated. for by nominating and
electing him it will get by far the best
of the bargain.

Mr.. oliver Strikes Back.
ditor OF The Tribune

OF ne
Sir: With respect to the allegations
contained in a Sunday paper of today, l
desire to say that | invite most scru-
tinizing investigation into the methods I
employed in comparison with those en-
ployed by Mr.. Horatio Il. Fellows, in the
recent canvass for the office of select
council in the Fifteenth ward. Personal
ly, do not know that one of the colored
citizens voted at the primary, but am
informed by the vigilants that not more
than six of these people attempted to
vote, and that Hon. John II. Fellows was
in the booth at the time, evidently in the
interest of his brother.
Many other misstatements were made
concerning me during the recent canvass,
and | also invite those interested to OBJ
tain information and make a comparison
OF my record with that of my late op-
ponent, personally, as a councilman, or
as a member of the board of revision and
appeal. Joseph Oliver.
