him the opportunity in the Spanish
war to exhibit the temper and char

from the governorship of New York
into the vice presidency. No
other good fortune in his life, how
ever, is to be measured with the fab
ulous favor of Fate which arranged
his climax of fortune that 1t might he
capped at the supreme moment Of his
career with the disfavor and the
hatred Of the political bossism from
which the American people turn to
President Roosevelt as men on long
journey turn eagerly from sinking and
shifting bogs to smiling, green feds
and meadows, and from misty shad-
ows to the open sunlight.-New York

State Senator Samuel Patterson, of
Pike, says that while Senator Hanna
is not seeking the presidential NOM
ination, he could be persuaded to ac-
cept this honor should there be a pre-
ponderance of feeling In favor Of his
doing so. He declares Hanna is for
Herrick and thinks it is but waste
of time for other candidates to plug
for the place. He is of the opinion
Dick would have received the nomina-
ton had he remained in the race, but
stated the Akron statesman is young
yet and will yet have many opportuni-
ties to receive honors due him.
Should Hanna be nominated for the
presidency next year he said, Dick
would be in line for the senatorship.
He believes 1t not improbable that the
great business interest of the east will
be for Hanna for president and says
the south is for him overwhelmingly
and that the demands are coming for
him from the west. THE senator does
not know his strength" said Mr.. Pat
terson.
II is announced that George H. Cox,
of Cincinnati, will pay an early visit
to Washington to hold a political con-
ference with Senator Hanna. Senator
Harding is expected back from Wash
ington today.
