EASTERN TICE-PREtlDEXTS.
The BepaMlea NoaalwatioB forth
OHce Has I'saally Goaetathe Eas.
The'empty honor? of a nomination
for the vlce-preafctency has usually
been given In Republican national con
ventions to some caatern state, aays
the Sun, and usually to one which It was
hoped might be turned Into the Repub
lican electoral column by means of this
concession. The first Republican na
tional convention of 1868 cave the nom
ination for vice-president to a resident
of the state of New Jersey, which has
nut been honored by either party In re
spect to the vice-presidency since,
though the Republicans of New Jersey
have this year a candidate for the nom
ination for vice-president In Garrett A.
Hobart. of Paterson., The convention
failed of Its purpose, for the Republican
electors In that year were beaten by
IS. 000 In New Jersey.
In 1860 and 182 the Republican nomin
ation for vice-president went to New
England. In the former year It was
Hannibal Hamlin of Maine who was
nominated for vice-president, and In
1ST2 it was Henry Wilson of Massachu
setts who received the same honor. In
both years the Republicans were suc
cessful not only in the country at large,
but also In the two states which sup
plied the vtre-presMentlal candidates.
In 1876. 1880, 1S88 and 1S2 the Republi
cans nominated New York men for the
vice-presidency. In two cases the nom
inations for the minor office on the
presidential ticket were successful In
securing the electoral vote of New
York; in the other two cases they
failed. Oddly enough the two vice,
presidents who put New York Into the
Republican column in 18S0 and 1888
were, both of them, natives of Vermont.
Chester A. Arthur, elected In 1880, was a
native of Franklin county. He was
born in the town of Fairfield. Governor
Morton was born in Shoreham. The two
vice-presidents nominated from New
York for whom this rtnte did not cast
its electoral vote when they were can
didates were William A. Wheeler of
Franklin county and Whltelaw Reid.
Mr. Keld was born in Ohio, In the town
of Zenla. His associate on the Repub
lican national ticket of 1S92. Mr. Harris
was born In Ohio also. The Republi
cans in all their national conventions,
except three, have gone either to New
York or New Jersey or tha New Eng
land states for their vice-presidential
candidates. In 1864 they went to the
South for a candidate; In 1F68 the Re
publican nominees for president and
vice-president were chosen from adja
cent statos, Illinois and Indiana, and In
lSflt the Republican nomination for the
presidency having been accorded to
the cast, the nomination for vice-president
went W 'Ht to Illinois.
It Is thought probable by mo ay Re
publican!! that there will be an eustrn
candidate for the vice-presidency th!s
year, and in addition to New Jersey's
candidate the claims of some Connec
ticut pien have been dlscunsed. Con
necticut Is cine of the stat-'s which
have UHiiully Lecn thought by its states
nun worthy of presidential honors.
Thoucrh the population of the Nutmeg
state is not large. Us electoral vot"s are

SI:PT. TAYLOR'S SALARY.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: I have observed Horace Seaman'
communication in Tuesdays Tribune rela
tive to the Increase of salary of county
superintendent of schools made at the re.
cent directors' convention. He makes it
appear that J. W. Cure was the only direc
tor courageous enough to raise his voice
affuliiBt placing the salary at $3,000. In Jus.
tlce to my fellow-directors from the rural
districts of the county. I desire to explain
that the attendance from these districts
was light owing to the busy time of the
year for farmers and the understanding
that there was no contest on. Those of
us who were present were taken by sur
prise, not being aware that an effort was
to be made to advance the salary.
There was b vigorous iiKht made against
the raise to $3.oo and a large majority of
our people voted a?alnst it. We were
much surprised at the result of the bal
lot and as some claimed they did not '.in
tiers t and the motion as put, an effort was
made to have It reconsidered, hoping to
have the result changed. I'pon being per
sonally appealed to, Mr. Cure, who had
voted for the motion, moved a reconsider
ation. He did not disclaim sympathy w'th
the motion, but said he moved a reconsld.
eration in the spirit of fairness to those
who had mlsunilcrstooj it. lie further
more voted against his own motion to re
consider. There are some of us who are proud of
being in the minority on this question who
nre jealous oi naving an ine credit con
fprod ivicn Mr. Cure. While I am a Der.
sonal friend of Professor Tjylor's and
rejoice in nts prospertty, i very much re
gret the precedent established by this ac
tion and believe it was unwjsc anir un
called for. J. L. Stone.

SUSTAINED WILL
OF MRS. FRANCIS
Effort of Her Sea to Have It Declared
- Void Was Uisuccessfai.
VERDICT IN STEERE-OAKLEY CASE
Plaintiff Was Allowed 661.?D..guit
f Ana O'Grady Against the Prn
denlial Life Insurance Company
Tried Before Judge GaastefCanse
of the Actioa of A. T. Philo Agaiaat
Joseph Haidrrmau.
When common pleas court adjourned
yesterday afternoon. It adjourned un
til Monday morning at o'clock, today
being a legal holiday.
A verdict of $661.79 in favor of the
plaintiff was rendered In the suit of C.
C. Steere against D. K. Oakley. It has
been before the courts the past six
years and was tried once before and a,
verdict rendered In favor of the plain
tiff. In the Francis will contest a verdict
for the defendants was rendered. The
Jury sustained the decision of Register
of Wills Hopkins. The Jury found
that Mrs. Francis, the decedent, was
the wifo of Thomas Watklns In 1884,
when Bhe made the will, and that she
was not afterward legally married to
any other person. Watklns went away
and left her, but she had not secureu a
divorce from him, and, therefore, could
not marry anybody else.
The trespass suit of Thomas Bartow
skl against the Stowers Pork packing
and Provision company, resulted In fa
vor of the defendant.
TWO INSURANCE SUITS.
Two insurance suits were tried be
fore Judge Gunster in No. 2. Ann
O'Grady was the plaintiff in each case
and the defendant was the Prudential
Life Insurance company. The plain
tiff had her mother Insured, and at the
latter's death the company refused to
pay the policies on the ground that they
were obtained through misrepresent
ing the age of the deceased. A ver
dict was given In one case for $143.65
and In the other for $151.91 in favor of
Mrs. O'Grady. These are the full
amounts of her claims.
The suit of A. T. Philo against Joseph
Haldern-.on was tried before Judge Ed
wards. Mrs. Hnlderman left Joseph
about two years ago, claiming that she
was treated so cruelly that she could
not live with him. Philo gallantly took
her In and kept her six weeks. He sent
a bill for her board to her husband,
and when It was not paid he sued be
fore an alderman and got Judgment.
H&lderman appealed the case to court.
HIS WJFE LEFT HIM.
It was tried before and a verdict for
the plaintitt wus given, l-ut the court
g:u:ud a new trial. Mr. Hulderinan's
