The Old Age Limit.


There seems to be a growing disposi-
tion to fix an old age limit on every
body except statesmen. Officers of the
navy are retired by law at sixty two
and those Of the army at sixty four.
Mr.. Chairman Gillett of the civil serv-
ice committee of the house proposes
that government employees shall be re
tired at seventy. Now comes the Meth
odist conference at Los Angeles, Cal,
and retires a batch of bishops because
old age has injured, If not destroyed.
their usefulness. BY common consent
there is a sort of old age limit on the
first term for president which is
about sixty-six. Only one man above
that age was ever elected president for
a first term General William Henry
Harrison at sixty-eight- land he served
only one month, which has been a great
encouragement if not a bar, to the
nomination of old men ever since But
suppose the people should take notion
to establish an old age limit for repre-
sentatives and senators in congress .
It wouldn't make SO much difference

The Democrats of the District of Co
lumbia, having only one political priv
ilege, that of selecting six delegates to
the national convention, seem deter
mined to make the most of that. For
weeks they kept themselves in a stew
and Washington in an uproar. FL
nally they held a convention and split
into two factions, whereupon the de-
feated faction promptly bolted. This
is a strange world, my masters.

Old Virginia Democrats are incu-
batting boom for United States Sen
ator John Warwick Daniel for the vice
presidential nomination. A better Sc
lection could not be made. He is a
man of splendid ability and highest
character. He is the prince of south
ern orators of the old school, He is. a
great lawyer and has written one of
the best law books known to the pro-
fession. which is an authority every
where. In his youth he was gallant
soldier Of the confederacy, and his
crutch is a perpetual reminder Of his
valor. His friends love to call him
the Lame Lion of Lynchburg." He
served one term in the house of repre-
sentatives and has been elected for his
third term in the senate. He has a
magnificent head and face. A stranger
gazing upon that Romanesque counte-
nance would know without being told
that he was in the presence of man
of brains, courage and perfect integ
rity. The Virginians do well to love
and honor John Warwick Daniel. and
the national Democracy will do well
to nominate him for vice president.

Split Wide Open.

Republican HarmOny-always spelled
with a big, big H-fnds its latest IL
lustration in Wisconsin, where the La
Toilette Republicans have nominated
one complete ticket and the anti-La
Toilette faction another complete tick
ct. Each faction had about the same
number of delegates, and each charges
the other with boiling. The bitterness
is unspeakable. Senators Spooner and
Quarles, together with General Minor
and that queer tariff reformer CD, Rep
resentative Babcock, lined up with the
anti-La Toilette crowd, and things are
red hot in Wisconsin, about half the
Republicans in the state lighting the
other half tooth and nail. Both fac
tons claim to be regular, and both are
talking of appealing to the courts. 1t
looks as if the Democrats ought to
sweep the state as Old Man Harper
used to declare he ran his horses
"from eend to eend.' In addressing
the anti-La Toilette faction, with whom
he unreservedly cast his fortunes,
United States Senator John G. Spoon
er incidentally declared that he had no
political ambition. A great many men
talk that way in Pickwickian sense,
but / believe that Senator Spooner
speaks the truth. / have heard him
explain his theory of life repeatedly i'll

ting politics and returning to the prac-

illinois Too.
Republican harmony of the Kilkenny
cat variety is on tap in Illinois. After
more than d week Of fruitless balIoting
in the most stubborn deadlock recorded
in the annals Of Sucker politics, the Re
publican convention took a recess to
May 81, without naming a candidate
for governor and consequently without
naming any body for any other Office.
Hon. f. r. Hit seems to be the only
Illinois statesman up to date who made
anything out of the convention. He
was Endorsed and instructed for for the
vice presidential nomination. That the
bitter contest has left bleeding sores
which will not heal before the election
goes without sayinga fact that will
put new heart into the Democrats of
Illinois and help them carry the state.
Taken all in all Democratic prospects
have frightened very much in the last
fortnight and consequently Republican
leaders are much chapfallen.
Hon. George Gray, once United
States senator from Delaware, one of
the makers of the Paris treaty, now a
circuit judge of the United States, has
been selected to succeed the late Sena-
tor Marcus A. Hanna as president of
the National Civic federation, a posi-
ton where he can be of great use to
the country by the exercise of his great
capacity. Judge Gray is very able
man, of commanding personal appear
ance. He looks the statesman and ju-
rist. If he lived in large state, his
chances for being president would be
good. He may reach that high place
despite the smallness of Delaware He
is prime favorite with all who know
him.
