The Vice Presidency.

There is good reason to rope that
son of Maine may BE- nominated tor inc
vice-presidency at the Philadelphia
convention. There is little doubt but
what the New England delegation will
be a unit in the support of Hon. John
D. Long. the able and popular Secre-
tarv of the Navy. Expressions from
otbar sections of the country make it
vow evident that his name has met
With favor in all parts of the Union,
,rd unless combinations not now fore
seen should occur to prevent, there is
every reason to hope that he may be
selected as the running mate of Presi-
dent Mckinley on the presidential
ticket.
The people of Maine have a special
interest in the candidacy of Mr.. Long.
He is q native of this State. Here he
began the practice of his profession, in
which he had so long and 50 distin-
guished A career. and on the ell of the
old homestead in Buckfield. Maine. still
hangs the beaten sign which
he first put out as young attorney in

country since he entered the cabinet of

and ready grasp of affairs. he COM

Of cool Judgment and the executive

ceedingly ready and eloquent public
speaker. one who always talks 10 the
point and who never fails to say some
thing that his hearers will remember
with pleasure ana profit. There is No
man in the United States, today, in our
Judgment. who would lend more
strength to the national ticket as
candidate for vice-president than the
able Secretary Of the Navy, whose
brilliant record during our recent war
was one of its most notable features,
and who enjoys in marked degree the
confidence and respect Of the American
people.

Our Senator'S.

Through the press dispatches that
appear during the sessions Of Congress.
the general Maine public is usually
able to keep an Intelligent watch Of
the work that is being done by our
members Of the national House. Such,
however, is not always the case with
the work accomplished by the two dis
tinguished gentlemen who represent
the good old Pine Tree State in the
United States Senate, the extent and
Importance of whose labors can only
be fully appreciated by those who are
in position to know Of them and T.
understand how much they mean u
thc people Of cur state. There Is no
stat in the Union, today, ~ strongly
represent. in the American Senate
Az our own. Both Senators Frye and
Hal, have had i long ana distin
gulShed experience as members OF that
body. and both had served successfully
in the National House of Representa-
tives before they entered the Senate.
which honor came to each of them as
wel-merited promotion. Both of our
senator's are men of untiring industry.
ana both exert an exceptionally strong
influence in shaping and directing
national legislation.
We but voice the opinion very gen
orally expressed by distinguished pub
| ic men at Washington. in saying that
never in its history has the United
| States Senate had an ADLER or more
popular presiding officer than our own
Senator Frye. Courteous. ready AMI
uniformly fair. he has made i record
| in this cxacting and important posi-
ton of which the people of his native
state may justly feel proud. The
people of Maine viii take pleasure,
next winter, through their chosen rep
rcscntatives in the State Legislature,
III returning this broad guaged publ"
man to the great body in which ne has
sl long and 50 efficiently served.
Senator Hale, as we'll as Senator
Frye. holds many important committee
positions, and is recognized by the
members of Congress generally as a
man of clear head and sound judgment.
How prominent part he plays in tn
work of the Senate can only be fully
appreciated by those VINO are in a
position to know something Of the eX-
tent and variety OF his labors. Both III
our Maine senator's are ever ready to
90 anything and everything in their
power to serve the people Of thcir
State. Both are interchangeable workers,
ana both stand in influence ana in
recognized ability, in the very fore
front OF American Legislators.
This is Senator Frye's year for re-
election, and the strength of his per-
sonality will be one of the strong
factors in the combination which will
result in an overwhelming Republican
plurality the coming fail. He will I'M
doubtedly lie renominated by acclama-
ton and will so back to the Senate 70.

! and esteem Of the people Of Maine in

In an interview on his way home.
Senator Frye made good point when
he says that of 1871 bills and resolu-
tons introduced. last winter only
about 225 of them were sent to the
President for signature. 1T is no small
part of the duties Of Congress to con-
triVe how not to ieEislate-to prevent
great numbers of ill-considcrld. selfish
~ promoted and vicious measures from
becoming law" Senator Frye believes
that in this respect. no less than for
What it did in making laws. Congress
is to be cordially commended. ana no
doubt the country agrees with him.
Every state suffers from too much law,
and it is true in national as well as
local legislation. that the best work
does not consist in passing the most
piils. Who can conceive the result had
all of those 1881 bills been passed? 1t
would have brought about a political
industrial. social, and commercial
chaos such as has never been known in
history.
