4. Organizing ability. 5. Ability on the platform. This list was suggested by an officer of the league, who pointed out that those were the attributes which made Wheeler the great man he was. Whale of a Job “It’s a whale of a job to control Congress,” this official said. It’s such a whale of a job that no one in the league Is trying hard to get it. You may have seen stories to the effect that there was a "rush of reformers” after the big job, but that doesn’t appear to be true. The man who succeeds Wheeler will have to be drafted. * There are a number of possibilities, but each one knows that he will have to be compared with Wheeler as soon as he assumes office. Some of them don’t want the job and would refuse it if It were offered to them. Talk of Split An Indication of the situation the league faces was seen In Its prompt decision to split up the jobs of legislative superintendent and general counsel, both of which Wheeler held for six or seven years. Edward Bradford Dunford, Wheeler’s legal assistant, will take the latter and least important job. Wheeler often said that Dunford had “the keenest legal mind the world ever knew.” The new legislative superintendent will be selected in December. Incider Uy, the league official quoted at the outset of this story said that the cool head and the gift of humor were the most important essentials of all. Had His Own System Wheeler was an intense little figure, whose favorite gesture was an out-thrust fist, but he knew that while some legislators could only be

coerced by strong-arm methods others could be won only by sugar. His own brand of humor was always on tap and often he more than held his own against a heckling audience by virtue of it. But in the debate with Clarence Darrow at New York early this year he put himself over. Little groups In the audience chanted in unison, “We Want Beer!” over and over again, breaking up his speech. It was the first time, according to his friends, that the Wheeler platform power had not prevailed against a hostile crowd. He was, however, a sick man. Knew Death Was Near They had known within the league for more than a year that Wheeler was doomed. League folk admit that they lied about his health. Several times In the last eighteen months he was near death, but he was credited with great vitality. Then came the terrible tragedy in which Wheeler’s wife was burned to death. “We knew It wouldn’t be long theij,” says one who was closest to Wheeler. “She had given up her many outside interests to give him constant care and she had prolonged his life. If she had been there to save him exertion, Mr. Wheeler would not now be dead. “If she had lived, he would have survived the year, but we doubt if he cculd have lasted longer in any event.” Seventeen buyers answered a store for sale want ad In The Times..
