OBSCURITY ANADyANIAGE
Judge parker's ObseurIty an ASSET
for the Presidency Well Known
Instances in tiistory rised,

| There Is a man somewhere IN New
York State, by the name ol Judge Park
er, who is being good deal lalkcdabo
for the presidency Of the United States
This Judge Parker may be q very ex-
cellent man. In the present paucity oi
information nothing can be.proved to the
contrary, anyway.
Every frouselcd- headed school boy In
this land, though ssteenteen miles in the
backwood, has il dinncd INTO him that he
has chauco Of some dayb scoming pre-
sident. So, assuming that this Judge
Parker is net myth, II must be admit
ted that he has chance.
Tho New York Sun Is not impressed
with the statcsnanlike qualities of Judge
Parkcr's reticence. II says;
A merely negative availability, an
Edam-like sphere without single sa-
lient point upon which the imagination
can inpinge, u bundle OF uncataloged and
undisclosed opinions on the live ques-
tions Of the day, will inspire no enthu-
siasm and very little interest In prosi-
dental campaign against flesh and
blood candidate whose excellenees and
faults have been measured In every di-
mension and are already know to every
voter In the land; against such real
human figure, for examples tho Hon.
Theodore Roosevelt.
The Sun Is too impetuous. It forgets
history. 1t forgets history. 1t overlooks
the fact that his opinions never yet help
cd any man into the presidency, while
they have kept many good man out Of
it.
Let's go back to 1874. We might 20
further, but that is far enough for the
purpose. In that year the Democrats
found in Tennessee, Wing State, a lit
tie gentleman who had been, in the two
preceding elections for governor of his
State, successfully defeated, and they
nominated him, JAS. Knox Polk, for pre-
sident, and with him defeated Henry
Clay, "the great Harry OF the west.
Why, men are nothing.
In 1852 the great Winfield Scott was
beaten disastrously by tho obscure
Franklin Piece.
In 1884 the great Jas. ca Blaine was
defeated by the obscure Grover Cleye-
land.
In 1888 the great Grover Cleveland
was defeated by the obscure BENZ. Har-
rison.
Mere mon are lesa thab III shings
Even Abraham Lincoln was a name
scarcely known outside OF Illinois wnen
1t was put at the head Of the ticket in
1860, and his views on the great question
OF that time are disputed even to this
day.
Great regulations anythingp Poorl
They are like kites, made up in an hour
of newspapers.
The shades Of private life are filed
with public men who have been killed for
thcir political views. Happy is tho man
who has none, or having them, is not
found out.
II there really exists such man as
Judge Parker, he Ia to be congratulated
upon his obscurity. II is the best CAPT
tai he could have in candidacy for pre-
sident.
