 Sherman went to Washington first
 as member of the 50th Congress. He
 was an ultra high protectionist and
 his influence was always for high tariff. As a member of Congress he
 ranked as a strict party man and was always known as a standpatter.'' He tape worm c1ub,'' which was a de- cided factor in preparing many of the schedules of the Mckinley tariff The one incident in the life of Sher- man which affected him most was when he was defeated by Col. Roose- welt for the chairmanshfp of the Re pr blican state convent ntfon held in Sar- atoga Springs in 1910. Up to that time, Sherman and Col Roosevelt had been personal friends. When the Re publican state committee Invited Sher- man to act as temporary chairman of that convention he accepted and the the designation Sherman apparently had majority of the elected dele
 gates behind his candidacy until President Taft permitted the intima- ton to go forth that he would pre- fer that Roosevelt get the job. The federal officeholders lined up behind Roosevelt and friends of Sherman de- manded that he pull out of the race He positively refused. With the same smile that had marked him at all times, he declared in the par1or of the United States Hotel that even though he received only the votes Of his home assembly district he would stick to the finish and he did. Roosevelt won easi- sherman made no complaint but the friendship between the men was there after conspicuous by it's absence. | When the last Republican national convention was held in Chicago, Sher- man was sick He had sharp at irondacks but it was generally belfev- ed that he would soon get well. The I New York state delegation lined up behind Sherman, so far as the organ, ization's delegates were concerned, and demanded that, if the President was to have a denomination Sherman should be similarly honored- This was done but the vice-president was unable to take part in the present campaign On notification .- day he was hardly able to deliver. his speech of acceptance and has made no public speeches since. He issued a lengthy address to the. people in typewriter form a week ago, urging them to re tain. in office the men and party that

 The vice-president was believed to
 be slowly recovering until 10 days ago
 when he insisted on getting up out of bed and going to the polling place to
