The Death of the Vice president.

Vice President Sherman made fine
impression on the public mind as the
second officer of state and as the pre-
siding officer of the nations chief de-
Lucrative body. At first, Mr. Sherman
seemed to be rather below the proper
stature for the vice presidency, per-
haps because of the partisan nature, or
seemingly so, of his work in the lower
house of congress, but that appearance
was soon dispelled and he began to
show himself as the kindly friend,
counsellor and guide of every member
on the floor below him. The press re-
ports and the Congressional Record
have unconsciously but infallibly indi-
Gated his relations to the senate as full
of tact, good nature and wisdom and
The Tribune, for itself, had learned to
hold him in higher esteem than per-
haps any other contemporary vice
president.
AS with the late Senator Hepburn,
Mr.. Sherman's biography delineates
him as an unhinching fighter for the
old faith in him, and that is wei. 1t
is fashionable now days for men to be
considered patriotic and Jealous only
inso far as they abandon prudent and
proven courses and strike out for
speculative and unproven, or even dis
proven, courses. 1t is only in their
obituaries that men are honored for
the courage of fidelity. Mr.. Sherman
we are told, was not snowy in public
life, but he was useful. He was one
of those few men, one of only five, 1t
is said, in the lower house, who actu-
ally constructed the legislation and
brought into practical operation public
measures which have given the repub-
lcan party distinction as an efficient
administrative force. At the same
time he remained largely in the back
ground and his name was not at all
familiar to the public when he was
nominated to the high station in which
he died and which he has filled through
out with honor to the state and to him
self. No great law and no great policy
is associated with Mr.. Sherman's name
but on the other hand he was useful in
many things and performed all of the
public business coming to his hands
with industry, loyalty and ability. We
greatly regret his death, and believe
the whole nation will render his name
a sincere tribute of tears and SYM
pathy. Lewiston Tribune.

twenty feet wide and perhaps 100 feet
deep. The floor Is bare and covered
with dust The places run night and
day, and the men employed there
work three shifts Of eight hours each.
Every house has an automatic piano,
and one place has a set Of painted
studies in the nude, which local le-
gends say cost 100000. Those are the
only aesthetic appeals in any Of the
gambling houses. There are no chairs
except for the faro and stud poker
players. One house has q racing

Judson's mother had stored in cher

Over the bridge lies the Indian re-

Squaws, with the gray-colored
