SECRETARY LONG WILL
ACCEPT NOMINATION.
If Named for Vice President by the
Republicans He Will Not Decline
the Honor

President ought to be. His ability, his
dignity, his expiring as a presiding off,
Ger, his soundness and converse
tism and his proved capacity for rising
To the requirements OF any Office TO
which he may be called are known To
everybody In any way familiar with
public events.
But, aside from the question OF fit
ness IL is believed that he would add
strength To the ticket His record as a
member OF the Cabinet In without a
flaw. His administration OF the Navy
Department has been brilliant and eff
fective. From the beginning OF the ad-
ministraton he has been regarded as
one OF the Presidents wisest and SAT-
est counsellors. There Is no other man
who would personally be more accept
able to Mr.. Mckinley as Vice President,
or who would be OF greater service TO
the administration in the countless sit
uations where tact and political knowl-
edge are required.
ADVANTAGES SET FORTH.
Secretary Longs candidacy will find
favor in all places where the record OF
the navy during the war with Spain IL

thusiastic endorsement for instance. of
Gov. Roosevelt. who served with Long
as Assistant Secretary, and who, on re-
firing. declared that he had never been
associated with "A man I'm public office
from whom he 80 greatly regretted to
part. His ability as an orator will prove
or great advantage i'm the canvass IL
he shall be nominated. When he ac-
companied the President on the tour
through the West last fall his speeches
were received with enthusiasm every
where. He has personal friends by the
thousand all over the United States
Ii now seems that several names will

ton. Dolliver OF Iowa will be put for
ward by his state. and the brilliant

either states. The Indiana delegation
in Congress will meet this week and
Will formally put Senator Fairbanks In
the field. Mercer and Meikeljohn OF Me-
braska. Spooner OF Wisconsin. Wolcott
of Colorado and Perkins of California
are on the list, while Elkins of West
Virginia ~ an aggressive candidate,
whose political resourcefulness will
have TO be reckoned with.
WILL NOT TALK ABOUT DEWEY.

for an expression OF opinion regarding
Admiral Dewey's candidacy for the
presidency. In a good -natured way he
evaded making a reply but laughing
ly remarked that Dewey lis the honored

cept the nomination IL It should come

compliment II the Massachusetts dele
cation shall present his name to the

correspondent last night the Secretary
discussed his position in the matter
with TIE frankness and modesty which
are characteristic OF him. He believes
that the office is one which should
neither be sought nor declined. He will
not push for the place. Such a course
would be repugnant 10 him and would
be contrary to his habit. He does not
regard IT as seemly for one I'm his posi-

fact that there is n sentiment at home
i'm favor OF his nomination, and he APP
preciates highly what has been said I'm
the newspapers and I'm many letters
which he mas received.
STRONG SENTIMENT FOR LONG.
The secretary says modestly that he
has bees too long in politics TO take the
partiality of personal friends for a gem
eral sentiment in his behalf. and he has
no intimation that the party managers
are favorably inclined To his nomina-
tion. But although he makes this mod
est disclaimer. he is regarded seriously
as possibility by some of the shrewd-
est and most influential men in public
life, and wherever the suggestion of his
candidacy has been made IL has been
received with marked approval. and D
