senseless periods have been rounded
out on the stump in this country by
the bawling and blowing politicians

passing away and to receive its coup
de grace, it is TO be hoped, by the new
blue pencil of the congressional record
so that no more shall there be given

which the best thing that can be said
is that they were never delivered.
Newton Baker is graceful. simple, con
vinCiDg and courteous and at times
rises 10 heights of pure elOQuence.
And. best Of all in the orators equip
ment, he has that indef1rable thing
which in the despair of accurate eX-
preston we call charm AS the can
didate for city solicitor he usually ran
ahead of Johnson on the ticket. And
it was a sad, almost tragic triumph,
to him when in the last municipal
election he was elected and Johnson
defeated. Then Tom Johnson died and
everyone devoted TO the radical cause
in Cleveland, and indeed in all Ohio,
turned to Newton Baker as Tom John
sons successor.
Newton Baker was graduated from
John Hopkins in 1892. He was edu-
Gated in the law at Washington and
Lee university and admitted 10 the
West Virginia bar in 1894. He prac-
ticed in his native town of Martins
burg and then was made private sec
rotary to the late William L. Wilson,
when that gentleman was postmaster
general in Grover Cleveland's cabinet.
Then he went to Cleveland, and in
1902 was appointed first assistant di-
rector of law and in 1903 was made
director of law by Mayor Johnson. In
the same year-the rurales in the OHIO
legislature having made their annual
devastation in the city code-he was
elected city solicitor. and to this Of
flee he was reelected in 1905. 1907 and
1903 And now, in all likelihood, he
is to be the mayor of city that has
been trained to expect much of its
mayors He knows what difficulties
besets one in that office but he has
the philosophy with which to meet
them. One of the greatest of those
difficulties, at the outset. will be that
those who hail him as the successor
to Tom Johnson will expect him to be
another Tom Johnson. which is the
one big thing he could not and would
not do. He himself is a strong per-
sonality, and his personality must tell

has been extravagant with kindness.
And then Baker was the orator of the
Cleveland group. Johnson was d
