In the Baltimore Sun:
To have been elected TO the United

DENTAL cabinet thirty years before Is
an experience that has come to hui
one man In American public life.
The case of Nathan Goff. senator
from West Virginia, has no parallel In
The history OF the country. It stands
out as unique in many respects and
unprecedented In others.
Senator Golf was secretary of the
navy under President Hayes. He was
appointed to succeed Richard NJ.
Thompson, in 1881. and served for a
year.
Later the distinguished West Vir.
RInan was appointed to the federal

One morning. however. he awolle tc
find himself elected TO the United

d!date for the office. He had asked
no man to vote for him or work for
Lin. He had taken but casual inter.
est in the deadlock in the Legislature.
He was even out OF the State holding
court when the election took place.
And It can be safely guessed that
no other senator now holding 4 sea;
IN the upper branch OF Congress car
say US much. To most of the "elder
