! Of Mss. W. K. Vanderbilt that was, be
nominated for vics.prssidsnt on the
Democratic ticket7
rumorsd that bis contribution
Of s2s 200 to ths campaign fund was
made on the understanding that be
would stand good chance OF beng
nominated.
In all Mr.. Bslmsnt's movements to
get into poiitics; in his founding The
yerdicf, the illustrated political pa
per, and bis attitude toward the JEFF
fsrsonIau dinners last spring, It seems
that We could see the hand Of his am
bilious wife.
Let US take look at Mrs. Belmont
afd see what that ambitious woman
has accomplished. She was the poor
bur beautiful, fa'c'Dating Miss Smith
- M bile, Ala. There have been many
Southern girls like her, only they
lacked her brains, her tactfulness. and
her opportunity. She made the best
use of all these. Meeting the multi.
millionaire, w. X Vanderbilt, at a
bali, to which she wore dress said to
been borrowed for the OCCASION, she
attracted his attention, and 1t ended
In their marriage Several children
were born to them, and she had no.
table reign as a social leader, Her
oonquests in all directions we're many.
She captured as husband for her
daughter, Consuelo, the Duke Of MARI
borough, a member Of the nobility
closer to the British throne than any
woman outside Of the royalty, eve
welded. The divorce Of Mrs Wander
hilt from her husband. and her mar
risge, IN a very short time, to Mr..
Belmont, IL only to be mentioned
here.
Since she became Mrs. Belmont, her
desire has been to see her new lord Cor
servan,s) In position to look down on
her arst husband. 1t should be UNDER
stood that Mr.. Belmont was comfWsr
able old bachelor ~ some forty.hvl
years ~ age when ne married Mrs
Il Vanderbilt. He had good Income
and took life easy. BE has never don.
any work, because be bad no need ts
do any, After his life OF ease, be would
suarceIy enter the turmoil and strife
Of politics did not soms new ambition
STIR him. His brother, Perry, who
married the sloane woman, the day
she gOt her divorce, thereby creating
: great scandal, has figured some in
politics, but o. q. P, never has until
recently.
Now, what has aroused the ambition
Of Ollie B-lmont to aspire to Ike nom
ioation Of wee president Of these Uni
ted statesS Who could have done II
except bis ambitious wifeY They have
wealth in abundance at their com
msnd. or Mr.. Belmont would never

Keep your eye on ollie Belmont, be-
