In his first term Marshall had an ad-
verse senate, yet made himself so pop.
ular that he swept tile state a second
time and carried everything with him.
He then had memorable battle with
Tom Taggart, the state boss Of his
own party, over the United States sen
atorship. Marshall won victory IN
the election OF John w. Kern, who. By
the way, was the Democratic vice pres
idential candidate four years ago.

Twenty Years In Congress.

Before Sherman became Taft's run
ming mate he was congressman from
the Utica IN. " district. l remem-
Der when was up in Herkimer county
trying to elect w. X. Hearst governor
that the Democrats used ito tell me
what an all fred. smart politician jim
Sherman was. said they couldn't
beat him nohow; he was too foxy for
'em." And. believe me, there is some
politics In Herkimer county. What
they don't know about the game is not
worth the use of a microscope to dis
cover. They are Just as well yersed
in political arts and articles in Oneida
county, which at that time constituted
the rest Of the district. Yet term after
term Sherman took the nomination and
election away from all the other able
citizens and political postgraduates
who thought they would be an orna-
ment to the job. I don't know how
often he was elected to congress, but
it got to be habit with him. His otfi-
cial biography says lie was in from
1886 to 1908 except for one term, 1902,
when the Democratic landslide ran
away with him. That is a matter OF
twenty years. No wonder the other as
pirants grew discouraged.
Mr. Sherman was born In Utica In
1855 and has lived there ever since, ex-
cept for some twenty-four years in
Washington. He was graduated from
Hamilton college and has the degree
of LII. ID. from two or three other in
situations. He is n lawyer, director in
many local corporations and member
of long array OF clubs in Utica, New
York city and Washington. He pre-
sided over Republican state conven-
tons in 1895, 1900 and 1908 and would
have presided over one in 1910. but
Roosevelt wouldn't let him. Sherman's
voice in political campaigns has been
heard from Maine to California, but
not at one and the same time Won
derful as it is, 1t does not carry quite
that far. To claim otherwise would be
overpraise, and we should not deceive
in matter of this kind.
At one time Mr.. Sherman was chair
hiuA VI iAt hutiVhdi AtPuOlltdn NOhy
gressional committee, which shows
that his reputation as a politician got
outside of the Utica district 1t was
then that he became mixed up with
the Rooseyelt-Harriman episode, nat
urally very hot situation.
There is one honor done our vice
presidents that ] had almost forgot
ten. Theirs is the proud privilege Of
having their busts stuck around IN
inches In the senate chamber. Sunny
jim has the further distinction of
having specs" on his bust, the first
time, 1t is believed, that glasses were
ever busted" in this way.
Speaking of Orators.

date for vice president. There is
