OLNEY’S presidential aspirations are more than likely to end in smoke, but not in the smoke of a cigar named after Mr. Olney. THE BRIGHT lexicon of political preferment many are called to take the tail-end of the ticket, but few choose to accept the somewhat doubt- ful, not to say hollow, honor. |‘ THERE ARE so many available men for the vice-presidential nomination who fancy that they should have the first place that they never succeed in getting a line on themselves until fate tosses them to see whether they come down head or tail. gi les % HE old frankfurter sausage beams Within the burnished bu That, crescent-shaped, serenely gleams And sparkles in the sun.

HE PICTURE of Mr. Roosevelt in the act of introducing the traditional elephant that is the figurehead of the g. 0. p., of which he is a shining light, must se a feeling of friskiness to thrill the spirit of the beholder. To all lovers of Republicanism this playful quadruped is a sacred elephant, inasmuch as he stands for everything that is good in the political creed of which Lincoln and McKinley were exponents, and which is the creed of so great a number of Americans that Mr. Roosevelt's nomination for the presi- dency is already an assured walkover. Every one knows that Mr. Roose- velt is fearless and independent, and that he is made of the stuff that was the winning quality of the eighteenth-century American, as exemplified by Stark and Putnam in their many perilous exploits. Unlike the average sample of presidential timber, so called, Mr. Roosevelt is not afraid to say what he thinks. He is neither a sphinx nor a counter-jumper in his ideas or in his methods, and in this respect he is the opposite of all the grizzled grannies of the Hill and Gorman type.
