May number of Munsey's Magazine.
high authority, says g
1--WE are won't to think OF United
States Senator as superior creation
one taller :and bigger than his fellow
men, with fine, large intellectual
head. The portraits that illuminate
the pages of history certainly give this
Impression, and the picture Of the
statesmen of the Senate is rounded out
and completed by imagination.
besides this conception the average
Senator, in stature and appearance
and manner, would make very poor
showing. Instead Of the superior be-
ing of our imagination, he is pretty
much like any other man.
"But here and there we do find man
inthe Senate who both physically and
intellectually. measures up to our
early conceptions of full grown
statesman Of the upper house. One Of
these is Senator Stephen B. Elkins.
He is built of genuine Senatorial tim
Der, as fine a specimen as fancy could
demand. He is one or two inches
above six feet in stature, with big,
broad frame, well developed, and a
strong, large, intellectual head-a man
ofgreat physical and mental power.
with the exception Of Senator
Hanna, it is perhaps safe to say that
in Senator Elkins are combined the
qualities of craftsmanship and keen
business ability to greater degree
than in any other man in the United
States Senate. Mr. Elkins is able,
very able, anywhere and everywhere,
he is an all round strong man, and
there are very few all round strong
men in the world. Most great men are
great in some one direction, but SEN
ator Elkins comes pretty close to being
genius in a good many directions.
He is one of the very rich men of the
country, and has made all his money.

grown and developed equally in the
affairs of state. And busy man as he
is, he is remarkably read. he has
kept up his classical scholarship ever
since his college days, and has always
found time for the best Of current
literature. He is a man, too, OF fasci-
Mating and magnetic personality.
"Mr. Elkins is not too old yet to be
out of the Presidential race. twould
not be surprise to those who know
him best to find him very strong
dark horse at the republican conyen-
ton two years hence. He has the ex-
ecutive ability, the knowledge of
affairs, and the acquaintance among
statesmen that would fit him for any
Office to which he might be called.
This is not however intended to be an
appeal for Mr.. Ekins' nomination,
as this magazine is, and always will be
strictly non partisan. What we have
said is designed to be merely q sketch
of the man and his great abilities.
There are Others"

The Wheeling News is Right,

The Wheeling News, in speaking of
experienced Congressman, has this to
say:
SIN one Of his most interesting re-
views of congressional life, Amos j.
Cummings pointed out that the great
influence exercised by the State Of
Maine in national councils during the
past twenty years, was largely due to
the long and unbroken service of her
members in Congress. Through many
years Names congressman acquired
commanding positions, which enabled
them to shape legislation for the bene-
fit OF their State. AS aresult there is
scarcely a country village in Maine
that does not have handsome gov.
eminent building, creek that has
not been improved, or ledge of rocks
jutting into the Atlantic that has not
handsome governmentlIght house. In
smaller measure, West Virginia is
beginning to realize some OF the adj
vantages OF maintaining men OF ex-
perience in her congressional delega-
ton. Beyond all question Congress-
man Dovener and Dayton have now
far more power and influence in the
house Of representatives than the abb
lest new member could possibly
hieve. They rank high on important
committees and are in line for further
promotion, enabling them still further
to aid their constituents"
