OF THE EXCLUSIVE
Simplicity and Cordiality Are the
Truest Signs Of Good Breeding.

In a very candid and plain-spoken ar
tlcle on The Graciousness of High
Breeding in the November ssWoman's
Home Companion Ella Morris Klet-
SEMINAR makes thesa. pertinent remarks:
Men and women who by contact or
travel know the worlds best society
need not be told that simplicity ard
graciousness are the invariable char
acteristlcs Of the highest breeding. II
this fact could only reach the minds
OF that class of people who talk of 'ex-
clusiveness,' of four hundreds of the
'vulgarity of trade o. not knowing
any one outside Of our SET what
grateful social change would be
wrought. That cold stare of the
would-be elect is but the expression of
an underlined, poverty-stricken soul.
What is 'exclusiveness p 1t is that
human policy which shuts individuals
Off from the enjoyment of their kind,
by which society gains, since an in
harmonious element is thereby remov-
ed. How pathetic is the isolation of the
determined aristocrat, especially in a
small town where, other stirring in
terest lacking, human relations mean
scope detect the difference between the
naked souls of a bankers and a groc..
ers wife? How infinitely stupid il
is to draw lines in small places in
stead of honestly enjoying all there is
to enjoy. If one has had superior adj
vantages, is there no obligation to give
pleasure, to make sunshine in others
lives because of that good fortune? The
time is at hand when intelligence viii
be too widespread, progress to a more
vigorous plane of thinking too real to
admit of men and women looking ask
ance at one another to make mental
invoice of social, financial or other
probabilities? Will it not soon pene-
trate the dullest brain that wealth, rank
or leadership are powerless as shields
against unhappiness. or as props to
mental, moral or physical deficiencies;
that there is positively no honest or
sensible basis for judging individuals
excepting individuality?"

THE PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION.

Since the announcement of the death
of the Vice President of the United
States considerable inquiry has been
made concerning the succession to the
moval of both President and Vice Pres
ident.
Under the Constitution the Vice Pres
ident is the President of the Senate Of
the United States, but WITHOUT vote
except the Senate is equally divided.
Upon the death or removal of the Presi-
dent of the Senate, the President pro
tempore Of that body becomes it's Pres
ident. He still remains a Senator,
chosen from one State of the Union,
and is not therefore the choice of the
people of the nation.
Complications being feared in case OF
the death of both the President and
Vice President, the doubt arising as to
whether the President pro tempore of
the Senate would then become Presi-
dent of the United States, Congress in
1886, after long and serious debates,
passed bill defining the succession to
the Presidency. In that debate it was
developed as the belief of Senators and
Representatives that to permit one not
chosen by the whole people to succeed
to the Presidency would be contrary to
the spirit Of the Constitution, and that
one elected only as a Senator should
not therefore succeed the President,
though nominally discharging the duty
Constitution for the Vice President.
The question was then presented,
how much more nearly can the success
sion be brought to the people? 1t was
held that officers of the Cabinet are ma
tionai officers, representing not State,
or a district in a State, but the nation
as a whole, as they are chosen by the
President by and with the advice of
the Senate; that they represent the pol
icy of the Administration which the
people has installed in office, and there
fore to place the succession upon the
Cabinet officers would more nearly
bring the office in case of succession
close to the will of the people.
Therefore. in 1886 Congress passed
an Act which provides that in case OF
the death, inability or removal Of both
the President and Vice President, these
officers should succeed to the Presi-
dency in this order: First, the Secretary
of State; in case of his inability, death
or removal, then the Secretary of the
Treasury; then the Secretary of War,
the Attorney General, the Postmaster
General, the Secretary of the Navy, the
| Secretary Of the Interior, and the sue
cessor Is to act as President until the
disability is removed, or until a new
President is elected.
The present situation, then, Is this
The United States has no Vice Presi-
| dent, and will not have until after an
other election and Inauguration; the
President pro tempore of The United
States Senate will assume the duties
in that body usually discharged by the
Vice President. In case of the death
of President Mckinley, Secretary Hay
would become President
