Speaking of Roosevelt's chances OF
nomination, the New York CONNER
cial finds no precedent; In fact, that
none OF the vice presidents who have
accidentally become president was
ever nominated to succeed himself.
1t says:
''Sevsral newspapers are pointing to
the fact that none of the vice-presi-
dents Of the United States who have
hitherto become president by acci.
dent-Tyler, Fillmore, johnson and
Arthur--has been nominated to sue
ceed himself as president; and the
precedent 10 cited as ominous Of the
fate that maybe in store for President
Roosevelt.
Zone very important point, how
ever, is overlooked BY these news
papers: Unlike Roosevelt, neither
Tyler. Fillmore, johnson nor Arthur
wss nominateud for vice. president In
order to "get rid of him." Rooss-
velt was nominated for that ofi3ca
much from the same motive that
members Of the British House Of
Commons are sometimes clicked up
stairs" by the bestowsl Of peersgs
tho vice presidency would be q
place Of dignifled retirement for him.
"He was not nominated primarily
to balance his party ticket geographi-
cslly. but to shelve effectuslly what
some Of the party leaders had come
to regard as troublesome personal
factor. His nomination was not a
peace Offering extended to q stormy
and dangerous faction "a was that OF
Arthur; neither was he q OZARK
horse" like Fillmore. He was q
popular figure both In and out Of bis
party just then, and 1t was believed
that his nomination for second place
on the presidential ticket would serve
to strengthen the latter and at the
same time dispose forever Of his pres
idential ambitions.
"None of the four vice. presidents
already mentioned was nominated un-
der such circumstances fact that
makes Roosevelt's case stand out BY
itself. For all Of that, lots of things
may happen in the course Of the next
half dozen moons.
