comparatively uuiescent and moved

means to an end and not as the end in
the means. Hence in his administration
as President his first consideration was
the countrys. The Republican party
was consideration, but it was because
he believed it's policies most hopeful to
the country. In the distribution of
patronage, for instance, the first essen
tial thing was fitness. Without this
quality no appointment was knowingly
made. Party service, while not lightly
esteemed, was secondary. AS to the
federal judges, of whom he appointed
nearly fifty, he was wont to say that
they were no mans patronage, but they
were to continue in the service of the
country longer than Presidents or SEN
ators."

John B. Elan, who for years was the

came acquainted with General Harri-
son he was not yet forty years of age.
He began practicing law somewhat
younger than IS now the rule and had
qualities that carried him rapidly t,
the front. Before he reached his for
tieth year he was recognized by all as
one of the foremost lawyers in the
state,a many regarded him as the very
first. But while this high place was at
tanned more rapidly than usual, it was
not reached without years of the most
serious devotion to rules of the profess
sion. He had a mind singularly clear
and his mantel processes were
logical. He was honest and
fearless in every sense OF
these great words, but he was par
ticularly distinguished for intellectual
honesty and courage. Conclusions to
when his reason led him were accepted
fully with all their consequences and
made rules of action. He did not trifie
with anything, least of all with him

course. His very statement was ar.

yer is more than national, and it would
be difficult to name any contemporary
who reached higher place. Whethei
the case was large or small no client
ever had more devoted and pains
