Governor Swanson is native OF

has been prominently mentioned for
the presidency is probably one of the
best tests of his esteem and regard, but
II is known and read Of all men, that
whilst 1t has been said OF many other
representatives in the United States
Senate that there were lines by which
they could be approached. and, perhaps.
improperly influenced. there was abso-
lutely none by which Senator Daniel
could be thus approached or influenced,
and perhaps the best test of this is the
we'll known fact that. nothwithstand-
ing his long services in the national
Congress, he will leave the halls Of that
Congress as poor. II not poorer, than
when he entered them.
Senator Daniel was one OF the few
men who. whilst eminent as states
man. and whilst almost continuously
engaged in politics and the public SER
vice. was equally eminent in his chosen
profession of the law. He not only ap-
penred in some of the most noted legal
contests in Virginia. but he wrote two
excellent law books-one, his work on
Negotiable Instruments" is cited as
authority both In this country and Eu-
rope. He also wrote many essays and
articles for the periodicals and news
papers Of the country, which are dis
tinguished as well for their ability as
for their literary excellence.
We could prolong this statement al
most indefinitely. but this is neither the
time nor the place for doing so. and
no one recognizes better than we do
the imperfections OF this poor attempt
in that direction.
We have thus far confined what we
have had TO say OF Senator Daniel to
his public career, but what We would
love best to write of him is what we
know OF him as friend For about
forty years that friendship with the
writer has been OF the closest and most
devoted character, and 1t is no ex-
aggeration to say that no man ever
had more devoted and loyal friend
than we had in him, and he never
thought for one moment how his con-
duct in showing his friendship would
affect his interests or popularity, one
way or the other, and no matter what
sacrifice he was called upon to make.
II those sacrifices were called for in
the cause OF friendship, they were
made with cheerfulness and without
the slightest hesitation. We can say
this not only truthfully. but from ex-
perience as we'll. 1t is, therefore, with
peculiar sorrow that the news OF his
death comes to me and to mine.
