ion that there is room in the race for

that man from the corn belt, one of the
self-made variety, after his own pattern,
could fill the bill. He would expect to at

and at the same time hold the financial peo-
pie of the east depending upon his record
in the Treasury Department as BAN bond
for his soundness on financ al topics.
But there is another western who VIII
have to be reckoned with by Secretary
Shaw, so the politicians say-Governor-Sen-
ator La Toilette of Wisconsin. Like an
other Lochinvar, he Is coming out OF the
west next fall and Is after that nominal
tfon. He thinks the greatest question IN
this country is regulation OF railway rates,
and he modestly suggests that he Is the
head and front of the railway reform move
ment. -. =,

to wage a friendly contest with other men
at the head of their party, but the field was
well represented, as ii is at this time.
The republican party seems especially
fortunate in this era, in the possession of SO
much available presidential timber. There s
a bakers dozen of good men, the selection
of any one of whom could not prove mis-
take For the purpose of present discus
sion, however, this article will deal with
those who are being most talked about.
Prospective Timber.
Mentioned in alphabetical order, and it
would be difficult to otherwise classify
them, they are Cannon, Cortelyou, Fair
banks, Foraker, La Toilette Root, Shaw and
Taft. All except Root are at this time in
official position and more or less in the
public eye. None is an avowed candidate
for the presidential nomination, but all are
supposed to be, like Barkis, willin'. The
avowai will come later and will be made only

are candidates, but at the same time to be
careful not to discourage the efforts of their
friends in their behalf; this Is the stage
when the candidates ARE in the hands of
their friends If anything goes wrong
they can side-step and say they never
really meant to be candidate anyhow.
For the sake of convenience, however in
the remainder of this article, these parties
of the other part will be referred to as
candidates."
Speaker Cannon heads the alphabetical
list and his friends take it as a happy
omen He is man who If nominated, Will
win promotion through an expression of
public esteem and public affection. He in
spires the first through his long service and
his personal rectitude and he gets the lat
ter just because people naturally cannot
help liking him when they know him. He
is not easy man to get well acquainted
with for despite his reputation for bluff
good humor and approachability, he does
not wear his heart on his sleeve. Once that
people get to know him, and he knows
Them he binds their friendship with strong
ties.
Devotion to Public Interests.
Speaker Cannons strongest claim to the
nomination, if he advances it, will be on
the score of his devotion to public inter-
ests. He has served bis state and his coun-
try for more than two-score years. He has
also looked out for Joseph G. Cannon in
that time. He is never abashed when they
twit him about his industry in securing
patronage for his constituents. In all that
long term of public service no faint of
scandal in public or private life has ever
for moment attached to his name.
Mr. Cannon will have an advantageous
position in the public view during the next
two years, a period which should be fraught
with important possibilities to presidential
candidate. Next to the presidency, and in
certain contingencies almost as potent as
the presidency itself is the Office of Speaker
of the House of Representatives. A man
with the courage and ability Speaker Can
non possesses can make himself powerful
figure in public life in holding the Speaker
ship. Tremendously important questions
will cemoe before the next Congress in the
solution of the tariff revision and railway
rate problems. The possibilities for obtain
ing public approval are almost limitless. 1t
goes without saying that Joseph G. Cannon
will not avail himself of any of those pos
sibilities at the expense of his convictions
and his conscience.
George b. Cortelyou comes next in the
alphabetical list. He Is annoyed when peo-
pie talk about the presidency to him and
prays to be delivered from fool friends"
He says that prayers should head the litany
of the politician. Sut he has to be talked
about, just the same, whether it falls in
with his desires or not. Any man who
makes the phenomenal rise Mr.. Cortelyou
has made, and sustains 1t at that, is beyond
the pale of self-imposed exclusiveness. His
political future 10 public property, to be ap-
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1905-03-26

be common sense and not maudlin senti-
ment that dictated his decision.
Mr.. Cortelyou's friends admit that the
office of Postmaster General holdssout
some peculiar opportunities for unmak-
ing friends. He will have to meet de-
mands of every republican of prominence
in the next two years, and he cannot
grant them all, that's certain.
Vice President Fairbanks may deter
mine practically whether a new prece-
dent is to be established in American
politics, namely, whether the selection OF
a man for Vice President carries with 1t
an implied lien on the office of President
subsequently. Mr.. Roosevelt SHE'D at the
vice presidency in 1900 because the GUS
tom had been the reverse of such success
sion, and he wanted to be free to run for
first place.
Held Out Against Nomination.
BY the same token, Mr.. Fairbanks held
out against nomination for the vice pres
idency last summer because he did not
want to lessen his chances for the presi-
dency. When he comes up now his friends
will claim that he took the place in the
belief that he should be foot loose to run
again, and that no old custom should be
invoked against him. On the other hand
his opponents will say that his selection
will mean in effect the establishment of
a precedent. There will be room for some
fine political hair splitting over that
question.
win Vice President Fairbanks fall heir
to that unknown and intangible pressure
known as administration infuense?' He
is of the administration and IN important
part of it. Administration influence is
supposed to work through the office hold
ers. There is understood to be a bond of
affinity between all who are in office and
who want to remain. President Roosevelt
is establishing a system of retention in
office without regard to rotation. Now,

presidential timber-a term rather diff
cult of analysis, but having meaning
thoroughly understood by politicians. He
was thus designated as available timber,
to be utilized when occasion served with
out being classified as a perennial presi-
Dental candidate-quite a difference.
One fact which would have operated to
his disadvantage in the past had he been
put forward in earnest, was the exist
ence of very deadly fractional feuds in
Ohio republican politics, to which he was
party. 1t would have been a serious
question, some times, whether he could
have obtained the unanimous support of
his own state. There will always be fac
tional troubles in Ohio, but it is not ven
turing too much to say that Senator For
aker, with a reasonable prospect before
him, can obtain the backing of his own
state If he is brought out in the next
presidential race.
Senator Foraker is statesman and
politician, a business man and lawyer.
He has many irons in the fire and is a
man of affairs. He enjoys the friendship
of republican leaders in many states and
has been national character for years
That he Is politician is attested by the
hold he maintains upon the organization
in his own state That is not childs play
in Ohio. It takes a whole man to hold his
own In republican politics there.
Senator Foraker u an aggressive man.

After Roosevelt, who?
1t is not too early to ask this question,
for remote as the presidential succession is
comparatively, the politicians already are
not only propounding the inquiry but are
laying plans to have it answered after their
own desires. Campaigns for securing
presidential nomination are commenced
long ways ahead of the apparent ripeness of
occasion. There is much preliminary scout
Ing, an occasional outpost skirmish and a
vast amount OF planning. map making, pit
fall laying and ambuscading of the oppo-
sItion.
Before that stage, however, there IS a

In the republican party, In the past
twenty years, the selection of Candidates
has been made in a conservative manner
almost amounting TO recognition of a rule
of promotion and precedence. Men of ex-
perience in craftsmanship and party serv-
ice have been chosen. 1t was so with Har-

SUPPOSED MISER MURDERED.
Madame Bardou Victim of Unknown
Assailant.


Special Cable to The Sunday Star.
PARIS, March 25.-Madame Bardou, sup
posed to be a miser, was found murdered
in her bedroom this week. She lived in a.
house owned by herself, in the Glaciere dis
trict, and had tenants. The old woman
acted as her own concierge, and was always
known to be extremely cautious about adj
hitting people to her rooms, on the first
floor of the house Usually she spoke to
passing tenants through a grating, like an
immured nun. Her niece and other rela-
tives, who occasionally called to see her,
were treated with as scant courtesy as
those who were strangers to her. or as her
tenants.
Nine. Bardou was gagged and strangled
by, it is supposed, Apaches of the district
who had been watching for her for some
time and who knew that, in spite of her
sordid appearance, she owned two houses
the one in which she lived and another
near it. The old woman'S rooms were in
disorder. The murderers had not taken all
her money, for in the hooks and corners OF
her squalid and spider-webbed fiat gold and
silver pieces to the extent of $4,000 were
