community in which he lives, with his

They raised men on the rocky farms of
New England 150 years ago, and Judge
Parker has inherited tile ruggedness of
his Massachusetts and Connecticut
ancestry,' with the corners smoothed by
the weathering influence of a full morilern
life. He has made a career that used
to be typically American before we fell
under the glamor of the oleaginous
“Captian of Industry.” Working on his
father’s farm teaching in the country
school-house at sixteen, thrashing the
school bully, saving money to go to
Cornell and giving up bis hojies of a
university training to help bis father out
of trouble, studying law, practicing at
tin bar, and mounting, with a brief cx-
Tlie cursion into politics, to the head of the .. ...........t....._ ....
State's judiciary, he has always been heighten the color on a man’s nose,
easily master of every situation he has *

three farms, working in the hayfields, 1
and every inch a Chief-Judge at the
same time, he is an intensely human and j
a characteristically American fiigure.
To this 1 rief review of Judge Par-
ker's career the World adds: ” 1 his is

"While the exterior proportions of
some of the hotels recently erected in
New York arc enough to amaze the aver-
age Westerner,” says a correspondent to
tin- Pittsburg Dispatch, “astonishment
would grow if some of the interior fix-
tures were mentioned. For example, one
hotel, only third in line in point of size,
has.)'- miles of hallways to sweep, 75
miles of plumbing pipes to clear, 50 cooks

wash, t> j engineers, firemen and electric-

once dragged through months is now
11I111 st instantaneous. The public
opinion that was inchoate last week is
settled and irrevocable now. The St.
Louis convention will be merely a
ratification meeting.”
It is a fact to lie noted in Judge Par-
kis's favor that those who know him
best esteem him most highly. His char-
acter personally, judiciously and politi-
callv is above reproach. His Democ-
rat1 v is unquestioned, and 110 Democrat
plied: “No, indeed! I have some mon-
ey of my own, a parrot that can curse
and a monkey that chews tobacco. Why
should I.”
