A NEW RICHMOND IN THE FIELD,

According to late press dispatches
Secretary Cortelyou Is being groomed
for the vice presidential nomination.
The chances are that if he wishes sec
ond place, it is all over except an
nouneirg his majority in the conven-
ton. The administration is apparent
ly firmly seated in the saddle, and
Cortelyou is an administration man. In
fact, it was currently reported some
weeks ago that he was a candidate
for first place, and only desisted when
he received a strong intimation from
the president that for this Office he was
"personna non gratis
Secretary Cortelyou, by the way, has
had a very meteoric career. Born IN
New York in 1862. he started in life
in a pedagagie capacity. He first
came to the notice of the nation Ill
1896, when he was appointed steno-
grapher to President Cleveland; he
was continued in similar capacities by
President Mckinley, and in September
1901 he was appointed secretary to
President Roosevelt; was made first
secretary of the newly established
Department of Commerce and Labor in
February, 1903; entered the new cahi-
net on March 7, 1905, as postmaster
general, and on March 4, 1907, before
celebrating his 45th birthday, was APP
pointed Secretary of the Treasury.
Next to Secretary of State this is con
sidered the most important cabinet
position, and has rarely been held By
a man of Secretary Cortelyou's age.
Personally, the Secretary is a man
Of wonderful executive ability, and
would no doubt make an efficient pre-
siding officer of the Senate. But
what will probably count more with
the convention, he is a New Yorker,
and should his name be presented to
the convention, will be the choice of
the administration.
