' He modestly [ counts himself out when the time j comes, but if he is in the land of the living tbeD, which we trust he will ; be, I he party will no doubt think i differently. In the meantime he hes been suggested as a vice presidential candidate, and no stronger running mate for the head of the ticket j could be named.
