The death OF the viee-president OF
the United States at Utica viii evoke
sincere expressions of appreciation
and regret.
The second oficer In the republic
Is an essential factor In the machin-
cry % government, and the national
spirit will wrap the bier OF the dis
tinguished dead with kindness ana
with reverent speech. There are
thousands OF people or this republic
who win recall the sunny and genial
statesman with positive affection.
And the American people will extend
a genuine sympathy TO the little group
which lament husband, a father and
a friend.
No other yice-presidential candidate
ever died pending an election or be-
tween the election and the fourth OF
March. Horace Greeley died between
the November election and the fourth
OF March, but as he had few electoral
votes there was no complication.
The death OF vice-president Sher-
man brings once more sharply TO the
front the interesting question OF the
presidential succession.
The event will make necessary no
change in the ballots or In the voting.
Those citizens who are for Taft and
Sherman will vote for that ticket just
as II the vicepresi1ent had not died.
II the popular ballot should elect the
Tart electors, the electoral college
will vote for President Taft, and un-
der the party rule, renewed at the
Chicago convention. the National Re

meet and present To the college an
other name for the vice-presidency.
