' “Tee p licks wnicii a Democratic pri'si dent is called up m to enforce, in obedi 1 nee to the will of the people who give him his great trust, t - a n only he properly perlormdd bv those who look at these policies from kindly hearts and wiih friendly eyes. "Upon this belief I acted when I was first assistant postmaster general. "The people of the United States had seen fit to make the Democratic party the guardian of our national fortunes. What, then, more natural, what, then, more logical, Hum that tho.-e guardians should be selected from that party wh ch had placed in control the man who was to be held responsible.” DOES NOT P ISE AS A HEADMAN. "I do not wish to pose as a headman, a man with an axe in his hand, but 1 do wish to have it distinctly undi rstood that public office being a public trust should be held and performed by trusties who are in sympathy with him who ultimately is to be held responsible " The story ot how Mr. Stevenson treated Dem crats while he was First Assistant Postmaster-General ought to be familiar by this time to every one in the land Tlx re was no doorkeeper fb ti e entrance of his office, there was no red tape, no cuds, and heniv. r refused to see a man “ho came theie a ter office hours and ailed to transact so ne Deinbd-atic business and take a train t! a’ alkri oon.

Mr. Stevenson is a Demociat, and his riends believe that he will be the Democratic vice-president along with the Democratic president, Grover Cleveland. NOT MUCH ON STYLE. Mr. Stevenson is not much of a .man for dress; he clothes himself well, but does not go in for style. He wore at Chicago, and is still wearing, a straw hat of the crop of several years ago. It is a dingy, dusty affair and just the same sort of a tile that Evarts would w.-ar if by any chance that venerable schr-'..- c statesman were to abandon his < i r htvftii'h century high-hat and take to a wiskin head covering of straw, Mr. Stevenson has a good voice and there is a fervor in his oratory born of his s ithern ancestry. At times he makes - s p luses between his phrases and sen1 es to bring cut with dramatic empahas-.>, Ihe forciful points of his arguments. H'- ge.tiiplates freely and generally with ■con id - e grace. fe.hi.fam ng Mr. Stevenson’s traits are i : s love of home and family and his fidelyto his friends. He is a sincere, wholeo tiled, honest man, against whose per•ona. chtracter not even his bitterest po- !’ i v-B have ever brought any charges. 1... CHARACTER WITHOUT A STAIN.
