, WOT SPEAKER RANDALL WAS NOT
::".. NOMINATr-lV v;"
WHEN the Democratic Presidential con?
veaMon at Chicago la 111 wa orgaa
ising I met Samuel Jf. Raadall. of Pennsylvania,
wha had been Speaker af the Howe of Repre
sentatives at Waahlngtoa and who wa thaa a
member af the House. ; Mr. Randall waa aware
that a eoaaldereble number of delegate warmly
favored him for th Presidency, but he had no
inuelona about tha possibility of hla nomination.
. , Wbaa I met him be waa renting la a retired
place at the rear of the reading room of fna
of the large hsteU of Chleago. Ua greeted me
cordially, aad seemed disposed to apeak with
eom freedom respeatlng tha action of tha con
vention. . V - '.' -.-'
- He aatd: "Of course, It to gratifying ta have
frtenda who think ae well af you that they
would ba glad It you war nominated for Presi
dent . The reasoaa. however, ara many why
my nomination la impossible. . I .have already
discovered that some exceedingly shrewd po
litical work baa been 4ne for the purpose of
securing the nomination of O rover Cleveland,
ef New Tork. and t suppose the fact that he
waa elected Governor of New Tork by a woa
derful majority adda greatly to hla availability.
There la ae chance of carrying Pennsylvania
for a Demoerslio candidate for President but
I presume there la a very good chanc that
New . Tork, State would alv' a majority or-at
least a plurality to tha XMmocraUo candidate,"
Mr. Raadall did not aeam ta be very strong.
Hla wonderfully bright and targe dark eyes re
vealed mental vigor, hut pe aeemed somewhat
weary physically, Aa I looked at hire. I re
called something that hla warm friend. Judge
William D. Kelley. of. Pennsylvania, who .waa
also a member of the House, and who, althoagh
differing in politics with Mr. Randall, was aot
only a strong personal friend, but also a very
great admirer of him. said te me at the time
Joha O. Cirllsle, of .Kentucky, defeated Mr,
Randall fo the nomination for the Speakership.
Judge Kelley aaid: There la ao maa In tha
Democratic party better qualified by experience
and by ability for the Presidency thaa la my
friend. Bam RandalL ' He haa been familiar
with almost all the legtalatto which haa beea
enacted laac the Civil War. I think that h
haa a better understanding of the fundamantal
principles' of the Ueroocratic parly than-aay
member ef that party la eithsr branch of Con
gress. Moreover, he Is a true Democrat la the
social aad personal aenae a welt aa In the par
tisan meaning of that term. '
"I suppose Raadall to not worth more" thaa
foar or Ave thousand dollar, lie haa lived
upon hla salary, lie haa bad abundant oppor
tunity ta accumulate a fortune, but he dis
dained every -chance. I know that he lost his
Speakership at the time Mr. Kerr, of Indiana,
waa nominated berause he would aot agree to
asms a certain man whom powerful capital
wanted appointed to the chairmanship of a cer
tain eemmitteet. I know that be woeld not ac
cept a penny from aay of the protection leaarues
of the trailed States for the purpose of aiding
hi campaign for election la Congress, slthourh
he waa aad la a protectionist In tha arose that
h favor a revenue tariff wtth incidental pro
tection. He la a maa of minted honesty."
1 had heard at Chiracs that If Mr. Randall
would conaent to make a certain bargain there
would have been broueht to hi support for the
Presidential nomination a considerable number
of the delegates, but he perefmptorily refused
to bargain tor the aomlnauoa.
