MIR. Tucker President American
Bar Association

Hon. Henry St. George Tucker
was elected president of Tie Aneri-
can Bar Association at the annual
meeting of this distinguished body
of lawyers, held last week in 81.
Louis, Mo. This is the second
time that this honor has come to a
citizen of Lexington. Mr.. Tucker
is widely known as profound
lawyer, and he is frequently called
on to make addresses before
various bar associations. With
reference to this last honor, the
Washington correspondent OF the
Richmond Times-Dispatch says:
The election Of Hon. Harry ST..
George Tucker to the presidency
Of the American Bar Association
is unique in more than one respect.
In the first place, Mr.. Tucker is
the first man to be elected to the
position whose father held the
place. Hon. John Randolph
Tucker was for one term the pres
ident of the National Association,
and was for many years q Leading
member. In the second place, 1t
is not believed that there Is any
other State which enjoys the dis
tinction of having twice furnished
president Of the association.
Virginia alone has the honor, it is
said, though it is possible that
there have been presidents from
the same State in other instances.
The parallel between the career
Of John Randolph Tucker and his
son is remarkable. Each served as
a law teacher in Washington aVt
Lee University; each was the dean
of the law faculty each represent
ed the Tenth Virginia District in
Congress, and each was elected to
the high position OF presiding
officer of the American Bar Asso-
citation. Fucker, pere, wrote a
work on constitutional law, but
he died before it was quite ready
for the publisher, and, as i fate
were determined to keep the career
Of father and son closely identified,
Harry St. George Tucker COM
pleted the work and saw il through
the press,
There are few instances in the
hi story of virginia,or of the coun-
trv. where honors which have
come TO father and son are so near
" identical.

DEMOCRATIC EDITORS At EsOpuS.
Judge Parker Compares Demo
cratic Economy and Honesty
With Republican Extrava-
gance and Corruption.

: Esopus, Sept. s. The steamer ST.
John, bearing aboard the contingent
of Democratic editors drew up along
side the Rosemount dock at IL 20 this
morning. All were enthusiastic and
bent upon exhibiting their devotion
to the Democratic ticket. They cheer
ed the candidate Justify while the sea-
men were making fast to the dock.
The trip from New York was une-
ventful. There were six hundred IN
the party. The committee and editors
inspired by the "Star Spangled Ban
ner, = rendered by the baud, climbed
the hill to Judge Parker's house.
Judge Parker met them a5 the piazza
and after a general handwriting the
party stepped out on the lawn ssand
Charles ". Knapp, of the st. Louis
Republic spoke for half all hour.
When Mr.. Knapp concluded Judge
Pakrer stepped to the edge of the
piazza and was greeted by tuD1ultous
cheers.
Mr.. Knapp's address consisted most
ly of a eulogy of Judge Parker and
assurances that he would have the
strongest support of all the editors
present. The speaker predicted a
sweeping democratic success in No
vember.
Judge Parker, after expressing his
pleasure in welcoming to Rosemount,
representative of the American press
and pointing out the power the news
paper have said: "There are ques-
tions of great Importance to be passed
upon by the people in November,
questions that will be your duty, and.
therefore I know your pleasure, as
well, to present honestly and so
clearly that the people we'll under
stand them" Continuing he stated
that he would take up but one feature
of the republican party platform.
namely, That the republicn party had
displayed a high capacity for rule and
government, which had been made
conspicuous by the incapacity and in
trinity of purpose of the Democracy.
Judge Parker said. he would just
compare Cleveland's administration
with any administration of the Re-
publicans since 1860. Comparison he
said will show that under Democratic
control the administrative purity Of
the fathers had been observed in the
conduct Of the government that not
one of it's departments had been per-
meated. as Of late, with corruption
rivalling the day of the star route
frauds, that a successful effort had
been made to check the growth of ex-
penditures, that it resulted in each
instance in cutting down expenses
within the control of the executive
department. of government below that
of preceding administrations. After
1853 the Republicans had increased
expenses and in some instances SO great
ly ais to indicate reckless extravaganza
and waste Of the peoples money. He
concluded with an appeal for perfect
hranony in the conduct campaign.
