THE Buffalo Commercial points with
pride to the fact that New York state has
furnished nine vice presidents of the
United States. The list begins in 1901
with Arron Burr. Then follow George
Clinton, who took office in lsO4 Daniel
d. Tompkins, in 1917; Martin Van Buren,,
in 1888; Millard Fillmore, in l749; Will
lam A. Wheeler, in 1877; Chester A. Ar
thur. in 1881; Levi P. Morton, in 1889; and
Theodore Roosevelt, in 1901. Three OF
these, Fillmore, Arthur and Roosevelt,
succeeded to the presidency on the death
Of the incumbent, and two ofthe number,
Van Buren and Roosevelt, became presi-
dent for full terms by election. If the
Honorable James S. Sherman, of Utica,
nominated for vice president on the ticket
with William Howard Taft. is elected in
November, which seems most probable,
he will be the tenth on the list to be cred
tied to the empire state.

RECENT DEATHS.
ENIERT.

MERr.
Adam Emert, who died at his home on
German Hill, Juno "a, 1908, was born in
Germany, May l, 1924. In company with
his parents he came to this country in
1887 and with them made his home in
Lancaster county, Pa. In lSiS he was
united in marriage with Mary Lawrence,
who died Dec. II, 1894. To them were
born twelve children, nine of whom re-
main to mourn the death of their father:
John e., of Tylersburg, Adam and An
drew, of Whig Hill, Jacob, who lives at
home, Philip, Nathaniel and James,
Tionesta, Mrs. Fred Bristow, of Buffalo,
n. Y, and Mrs. Sadie Perry, of Volencia,
Pa. About 1854 Mr.. Emert moved his
family to Tylersburg and few years
later to the home he occupied on German
Hill until his death. He was man cap
able of gre eat endurance and by his tire
less labor cleared up his farm, bringing
it to a high standard of productveness
and cared for his family. On Aug. q,
1897, he was united in marriage with Mrs.
Rachel Mcintyre, who also survives him.
Seven years ago he united with the M. Il.
church and with faith in kind and low
ing Providence, after several years of
suffering from heart trouble, he passed
to the country.where its inhabitants never
grow old. "A large concourse of his
neighbors and friends gathered at his late
home on Thursday last at 1880 p. m. and
after funeral services there the body was
taken to the Zuendel church yard for
burial, Rev. w. o. Calhoun conducting
the service.
There's missing link at home,
A dear father left today,
And we trust in realms of glory
Where we know he'll always stay.
There's missing link at home,
The children bathed in tears
For a father long beloved.
Whom they loved so many years.
But he left the dear old home
For aaother far above,
Aud took with him SAVIOUR,
And his dear children's love.
Dear father rest, when we like you
Have passed life's toilsome journey
through,
Well come and lay our weary head
Near thine upon thy same sweet bed.

THE Democrats meet in Denver next
Tuesday, July eth, to start the ball aroll-
ing. They will nom mate the twice-licked
Bryan for President, or rather he will
nominate himself, having complete and
absolute control Of all the machinery and
practically all the delegates. Mr.. Bryan
has not yet taken the country into his
confidence in the matter of who he will
take as his running mate, and until he
has decided this point there will still be
some interest manifested in the gathering.
The Democrats as rule are taking little
note of the convention, scarcely one in
five being able to tell when it meets, be-
ing satisfied that the candidate has less
chance to win this year than on either
former occasion.

Our Next President.

1t is doubtful whether in the memory
of the oldest man a Presidential nomina-
ton has ever occurred that has been so
universally acceptable to people as that of
Secretary Taft. Adverse criticism is al
most wholly lacking in any quarter,
while greatest praise has characterized
the expressions ofapproval from all sides,
even the politically opposed agreeing that
the Republicans of the nation have put
their best foot forward in this nomination.
Speaking on this subject the Philadelphia
Press says:
In all our history only two or three
presidents have come to the presidential
chair with preparation as complete or
mastery as visible OF the problems of the
presidency, the fruit of experience, action
and achievement. His nomination fol-
lows the proved deeds of a life spent in
the public service, where he has never
failed in task and has never disappont-
ell expectancy, high as his own record has
made the expectation of men. There is
no side Of American life with which he is
unfamiliar, and on all he has displayed
knowledge, courage and principle. His
judicial decisions show his grasp and
command of the legal and constitutional
problems of railroad and trust. He has
attacked the boss aud the corrupt ma
chine in his own party. He has told the
truth to Southern Republicans, and in the
north he has courageously asserted, in the
face of interested clamor, the necessity of
revision of the tariff on lines which will
consider due protection to American la
Dor, the promotion of our industry and
the growth of our foreign trade. Nor has
our diplomacy more brilliant triumph
than the success with which he secured
settlement of the tangled issues centering
about the property of the orders of friars
in tie Philippines, on terms honorable to
the United States, satisfactory to the Phil
ippine people and accepted as just and
generous by the highest authority of the
church to which these orders belonged.

AND now there's "Bill'' Smith, the ed-
tor who has made Punxsutawney IA
mous,-but not on the Milwaukee plan, -
has busted out again. Hear him: "The
editor of the Forest Republican, who is a
true naturalist, educated in the school OF
experience, by digging ginseng, "iniun
turnips," l." and ground nuts in the sugar
camp, pulling up ramps in the spring
time, fishing for trout in thu brooks and
suckers in the river, hunting pheassnts
in the pine thickets and deer and squirrel
in the mountains, not to speak of coons
in the cornfield, is no nature faker. he
may therefore be accepted as authority
when he says that all this newspaper talk
about deer becoming plentiful again is
nonsense. The old hunter, he assures us,
notes the passing of the noble deer with
sadness and regret, and knows they have
gone never to return to us again, like the
buffalo of the great plains"

In an interview Booker T. Washington
recently said that Mr.. Taft was the logical
candidate for the negro voters. "There
is nothing we can get from the Democrat
ic party" he said, "If anyone is going to
do anything for the members OF my race,
it is the Republican candidate, 1 shall
probably make two or three speeches to
negro voters during the campaign" A
few persons have assumed that because
some of the negroes were vociferous for
Foraker, they would turn Mr.. Taft down
but to whom could they turn? Surely
not to the Democrats, from whom they
have absolutely nothing to hope! 1t is
likely to be many generations before the
colored race forgets the party to which
their emancipation was due.

fore there have been approximately 5000
deaths annually from smallpox, have
not reported one death from the disease.
In all, there have been over 100000
vaccinations performed, the direct effect
of which was that many lives were spared
and thousands of persons we're saved
from being disfgured for life, and at the
