certainly does not seem right The Vice.
President should, so far as possible, rep
resent the same views and principles
which have secured the nomination and
election of the President, and he should
be man standing well in the councils
of the party, trusted by his fellow party
leaders and able, in the event of any
accident to his chief, to take up the
work of the latter, just where it was
left
THE Republican party has this year
nominated such a man, in the person
of Mr.. Hobart, but nominations of this
kind have by no means been always the
rule of recent years No change of
parties, for instance, could we'll produce
greater revolution in policy than
would have been produced at almost any
time during the last three years if Mr..
Cleveland had died and Mr.. Stevenson
had succeeded him.
"All the elements which have rallied
behind Mr.. Mckinley are just as hearth
ly behind Mr.. Hobart. The two represent
the same force, and they stand for a
party with a coherent organization and
a definite purpose, to the carvings out
of which they are equally pledged"

broke out Mr.. Mckinley was still in
school. At the age of IS he enlisted in
the Twenty third Ohio Volunteer Infan-
try, in which he served under General
Rosecrans. Mr. Mckinley was made COM
missary sergeant, and at the battle of
Antietam he proved so efficient that he
was promoted to lieutenant He after
ward rose to the rank of captain and
brevet major and served on the stafrs of
Generals Hayes, Crook and Hancock at
different periods. In 1855 he was muster
cd out of service.
After teaching school for a term he

factions. The victorious faction may
crush out and destroy the others, or 1T
may try to propitiate at least its most
formidable rival In consequence, the
custom grew of offering a Vice Presiden-
cy as a consolation prize to be given
in many cases to the very men who are
most bitterly opposed to the nomination
of the successful candidate for President
1T has thus frequently happened that
the two candidates have been totally dis
similar in character and even in party
principle, though running on the same
ticket.
The result was that when the elder
Harrison died the Presidency fell into
the hands of man (Tyler) who had
but corporal's guard of supporters in
the nation, and who proceeded to OPP
pose all the measures of the immense
majority of those who elected him.
"a somewhat similar instance was af-
forded in the case of Lincoln and John
son. Johnson was put on the ticket
largely for geographical reasons, and
on the death of Lincoln he tried to re-
verse the policy of the party which had
put him in office.
IAN instance of an entirly different
kind is afforded by Garfield and Arthur
The differences between these two par
ty leaders were mainly merely factional
Each stood squarely on the platform Of
the party, and all the principles adyo-
Gated by one were advocated by the other
yet the death of Garfield meant COM
rlete overturn in the personnel of the
upper Republican officials, because Ar
thur had been nominated expressly to
placate the group Of party leaders who
most objected to the nomination of Gar
field. Arthur made a very good Presl-
dent, but the bitterness caused by his
succession to power nearly tore the party
in twain
'It will be noted that most of these
evils arise from the fact that the Vice
President under ordinary circumstances
possesses so little real power. He pre-
sides over the Senate, and he has in
Washington a position of marked social
Importance, but his political weight as
Vice-P President is almost nil. There is
always a chance that he may become
President AS this is only chance it
seems quite impossible to persuade pol
iticians to give it proper weight. This
