Whitney Out Of Politics.

"Ask me to talk about anything but
politics and am at your service, but ex-
cuse me from politics"
In this manner William c. Whitney
brushed aside a request that he should
review the political situation in New
York and throughout the country.
For n moment he grew reminiscent,
and as he spoke of the past by word and
by action he expressed regret that ne
could not afford the time and the effort
to play the game of politics he did few
years ago.
81 am 60 years old, said he, "and am
enjoying life thoroughly. | have not
vet heard anyone advance a good reason
why should trouble myself with poll
tics. quit eight years ago. Mr.. Cleve-
land. when last elected, offered to give
me any office at his disposal. That was
enough to tempt almost any man, and il
tempted me, but did not accept, and,
not accepting then, would not it be folly
to accept the hard work, now, with no
assurance Of success?
'Did enjoy politics? Yes, more than
| enjoy my present work. | enjoyed ii
thoroughly, but not enough to warrant
my taking it up again. Then, too, even
if | had any interest in politics at this
time an not certain that it would be
wise to discuss the situation. The busi-
ness of this country is prosperous and
the people are happy. 1t might not be
good Judgment to disturb them"
