Taylor lived in Louisiana, was slave

But he was the popular hero Of the
war with Mexico. II mattered not
that he had never cast a vote IN ms
life and had never taken any part IN
politics; il mattered not that the war
in which he won glory and renOWn
was condemned by the Wings as a
crime against civilization; it mattered
not that he was a southern slave own
er when northern Wings were deter
mined to fight against the extension Of
slavery; nothing mattered except that
the Wings wanted to win that they
had won in 1910 with a war nero and
an alliterative slogan and that they
could do it again Thus Tppecanoe
and Tyler too was succeeded by odd
Rough and Ready These two were
the only men the Wing party ever put
in the white house, and IL is remarka-
bic that they are the only presidents
that have died in office Of natural
causes
Notification Goes Astray.
On account of the fact that Gen. Tay-
Tor was believed by many to have been
a Democrat, there was some dispute
as to whether or not he would accept
the Wing nomination lnasmuch as ne
had exerted a great deal of effort to
get il, this dispute arose only from
the fact that the telegraph had not yet
extended over the country, and means
Of communication were inadequate.
Gen. Taylor did not Immediately ac-
cept the nomination because he thought
it improper to DO so until he was for
mally notified Of the action Of the
Philadelphia convention Gen, John
NJ. MOrehead, Of North Carolina, was
the chairman Of the Wing convention.
In those days letters might be sent
postage collect. Gen Taylor had re-
ceived so many, for each Of which he
was compelled to pay from 10 to 20
cents postage, that he had ordered the
postmaster to return all letters ad-
dressed to him and not prepaid, to the
dead letter office Gov MOrehead's
letter of notification shared this fate.
Thus it happened that Cen Taylor did
not have official knowledge Of his
nomination until the committee sent
to notify him formally had reached
his Louisiana home.
1t is interesting to note that the two
conventions of this year, for the first
time, paid more attention TO their plat
form declarations than to their nOmi-
nations The Democrats. for the first
time, adopted the platform before they
made the nomination, a practice which
has since become usual The Whlgs
were absolutely unable to agree on
anything except that they wanted to
win, ana, therefore, their convention
adjourned without adopting any plat
form whatever. After the convention
adjourned. d ratification meeting was
held whieh-was attended by most OF
the Wing delegates, and IL adopted a
series Of resolutions which were treat
ed as the Wing platform. and which
were more satisfactory to the northern
Democrats, than could have been any
platform adopted by the whole cOnven-

q UCCESS Is what a man achieves
- when he aceOmplishes his aim.
There is a suspicion that success
consists either of fame or riches. but
there are really great many kinds of
success. 1t depends on what man
aims at.
Some men spell success as follows.
Success" They are successful as soon
as the federal grand jury indicts them
for trying to run the earth.
Other men have an ambition to die
outside of the pOorhouse. If they do this
by a margin of p cents and two shirts,
they are successful men.
Some men are not successful until the
whole world talks about them. Others
are successful until people begin to talk
about them, after which they have to
throw away perfectly good name and
become somebody else, elsewhere.
A statesman Is successful if the next
generation remembers him. A politician
is successful if the governor-eleet re-
members him.
A novelist Is successful when every
body reads him. A poet is successful
when nobody understands him.
An artist is successful when people
buy his pictures. So is a matinee actor.
a humorist is successful when everyone
laughs at him. But an inventor isn't
successful until every one is sorry they
laughed at him.
A farmer IS successful when he can
raise enough corn to buy an automobile
An automobile dealer Is successful when
he can sell enough automobiles to buy a
farm.
An aviator is SUCCESSFUL when he
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1912-06-05

succeeds in staying up in the air. That
is the difference between an aviator and
baseball pitcher.
Some people are successful early in
life, ike Joseph Holman, who was a
famous pianist at Q, or Pitt, who was
prime minister at p. Others do not sue
coed until several hundred years after
they are dead. 1t took Homer 500 wears
to make good, and Poe, who starved to
death, Is now one of our most successful
writer's.
Success Is sweet, but it is also intoxi-
eating and goes TO the head faster than
Tom and Jerry The cautious man
who rs about to be successful viii in
case his head in barrel hoops and defy
