' VICE PRESIDENT SHERMAN

END COMES AFTER MANY HOURS
OF UNCONSCIOUSNESS.
I
Nation's Second Highest Official
Breathed His Last at 9.42 O'clock
Wednesday Night.
i
v v Ont. SO.?After a long
U UVU, 4^. ?
illness, Vice President James School- |
craft Sherman, died at his home in this I
city at 9.42 o'clock tonight of uraemic
poison, caused by Bright's disease.
He had been sinking since early
morning and it was realized that death
was only a question of a few hours.
There was a slight relief shortly after
7 o'clock, caused by an apparent
improvement in the condition of the
Jt kidneys, but it did not prove real or,
lasting and at best gave only temporary
hope.
At 9 o'clock the patient's temperat*
ture rose to 306. From that time his
condition rapidly became worse until
the end. Mr. Sherman was unconscious j
when the end came and had been in i
that condition for hours.

there were in the death chamber their

Thomas M. Sherman, and their respective
wives; R. M. and Sanford

and Mrs. L. B. Moore, and Mrs. H. J.

The twenty-iSfcventh Vice Presid t j
of the United States, and the only one J
Tenominated, was christened Jame-s I
Schoolcraft Sherman. But, in nearly !
a quarter of a century of public life. '
"Jim" Sherman he was to his intimates.
and probably half the nation
referred to him as "Sunny Jim," a
^ sobriquet he earned as one well might
* ? imagine by a never-failing, all-yearround
sunny disposition.

Republicanism nowadays popularly j
called "Regular," and fought his poli- j
tical battles shoulder to shoulder with
men of his faith without compromise
or flinching. Like every public man,
he had critics, some bitter; but h-^ j
also had friends, who were a match ;
f for his enemies. The events he helped 1
to shape are .so comparatively recent!

proper place until it also records the I
work of his contemporaries.
To the house of representatives of
the 50th congress he came in -the win -j
ter of 1887, just passed his thirty-sec-!
ond birthday, with the energy and optimism
of youth, college-bred from the :
halls of Hamilton, which has given to;
f public life many other statesmen and
public figures, none without some
i
mark of distinction. He had been j
v. elected mayor of Utica two years before.
Like many others who came to ,
lead in the national legislature, he
brought with him an education in law.
He was well horn and well bred. His
father, Richard l\ Sherman, was an j
editor and public figure in New York
State. !
Elected Vice President.
Twr> sessions of congress found
Sherman defeated and out of office,
?
but not for long. Henry W. Rentier,;
/k "f Rooneville, Oneida county, beat him
by less than a thousand votes in the i
race lor the ."2d congress. In the in-j
terim, Sherman went back to I'tica,
built up his law practice and returned j

he was nominated and elected vice j

of the tariff and other national
policies were his fellows. The senai.e
held such men as Aldrich, Allis m,
Cockrell, Daniel, Frye, Gorman. Hoar,
Hill, Teller, Vest and Wolcott. aii
were not Republicans; but all were
"Jim" Sherman's friends, and in such
an environment he worked to a high
place in the councils and finally was
No. 1 of the Big Five in the. house.
Cannon, Dalzell, Payne, Sherman
and Tawney were the great quintette
during the comparatively recent years
in which congress was Republican.
Each of them invariably wore a red
carnation for a boutonniere, and when
siiprmfln went lo Dreside over the
senate and occupy the coveted marble
room in other wing of the capitol, he
took the custom with him and the

of the upper house.
The Rural Telephone.
The farmer who enjoys a telephone
at his home does not see how in the
world he get along without one?and
so it is with his rural delivery in the
matter of mail. The .other day a farmer
told US' that he wanted to see
about tobacco?he was going to go to
a market a days distance from his
home, and he happened to think about
uAtTA
the telephone?wmcn ne uiuu l imvc.
So he went to a neighbor's a mile distance,
used his 'phone, and ascertained
a fact that surprised him to the effect
that the Greensboro market was paying
prices much higher than he expected
to secure?so he came to
Greensboro and was getting busy to
see if he couldn't have the wire run
into his home, and said that the one
trip would pay for what it cost. And
all the farmer needs do is to wake up?
tn look around and he can get about as
many conveniences as the city chap?
and yet escape the exactions of city
life. The telephone has made all other
things possible for him?he is in touch
with the town and with its people, and
he can sell on a rising market or
escape a falling market by talking
three minutes with his merchant. Wonderful

the human race?to say nothing about

THE QUESTION OF SUCCESSION.
Several Problems Presented by Death
of Vice President Sherman.
New York, Oct. "0.?The death of
Vice President James S. Sherman
gives point to the serious discussion
of the question of the succession to the
vice pre-sidency. As is well known,
there is no provision of law for filling
a vacancy caused by the death or re
tirement or a vice preside.11. oui Mr.
Sherman was a candidate for re-election
and his death prior to the' election
or prior to the action to be taken
by the electoral college in January is
giving much concern.
His death occurring prior to the
election, it would not be necessary to
make any change! in the ballots already
printed for November as cast
directly for the vice president. Electors
are chcsen to cast the ballots' of
their constituents for candidates for
president and vice president, and
while there is a moral obligation resting
011 those electors to support the
nominees of the narty. the instructions
are merely directory and, not mandatory.
The death of Mr. Sherman, of course,
relieves them, if elected, from the
moral obligation to vote for him. As j
it is a party matter and the governing
body in the party is the Republican
r-itional committee, it would bo the
proper function of that committee to
recommend to> them a candidate for
vice president to be voted by them. It
would be essential to hav?> concerted
action in either of two contingencies?
first, if the Republican ticket is successful,
and, second, if the election is
to be thrown into the house of representatives.
The> Republican national convention
delegated to its national committee
power to fill a vacancy on the ticket,
but it is known that the committee
will not be assembled at this time.
Should the Republican ticket receive
a majority of electoral votes, the im
i _ l
portance cf selecting vice presidential i
candidate is evident, but if next Tuesday
no presidential electors receive a
majority of the electoral votes, then,
by the constitution, the election will
be thrown into the house of representatives
and the candidate to be voted
for in the house by States would be
limited to those voted for by electors I
in the electoral college, but the housie, !
as at present constituted, would be j
unable to make a decision, because
the States' vote units, and about one- j
half of the- States are represented in j
the congress by Democratic members. J
The decision would, therefore, go to |
the senate.
I
The senate is limited in its choice to ,
those- two candidates who receive the
highest number of votes for vice presi-1
dent in the electoral college. If it results
on Tuesday that the election
rests with congress, th-c selection of
the candidate for vice president ha ? j
the utmost importance, because the
Democrats are in a minority in the
nrpsent senate, and if a Republican
candidate for vice president is selected
he succeeds to the presidency.

NAME INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE.
Opposition to Rector Result of Greeayille
Mass Meeting.
Greenville, Oct. 30.?The most remarkable
gathering of a political nature
held in Greenville for many years
was the mass meeting of the citizens
of Granville county at the board of
trade rooms tonight, for the purpose
of formally naming an independent
candidate for the office of sheriff of
thi6 county. ' >
The result of the gathering was a
unanimous endorsement of Mr. W. F.
Verdin, of Austin township, as the independent
candidate to oppose Mr.
Hendrix Rector for this highest executive
office of the county. In the meeting
were- men from all walks of life.
The mill operatives, the farmer, the
clerk, the merchant, the mill superintendent,
the mill president, the banker
the broker and the barber were all
represented. A more comprehensive
collection of men it would be very difficult
to find.
The meeting was the culmination of
the opposition to Mr. Rector, because
of the alleged part he took in the
arrest of Messrs. Gilreath, Gosnell and
Phillips. Thief meeting was not ex- tensive
ly advertised, being more im the
nature of a voluntary uprising of the.
conservative citizens. Of the approximately
one hundred and fifty men who
were on hand, perhaps twenty-five
gave expression to their views. The
%
keynote of all these speeches was that
the oaths of th*e primary were absolved,
because of the fact that matters
have now risen above the standard of
politics. "
The qtrt&srlion, as these speakers pjut
it, is no longer one of loyalty to a more
or less perfunctory form, but of "loyalty
to the manhood, prestige, dignity
and welfare of the county." As one of
the gentlemen who addressed the gathering
stated thft call wa& no Ioneer
one of politics, but of "simple manhood
and decency." It was pointed out that
the movement on foot is not one to
split the Democratic party, but to preserve
it from men who would vitiate it
Rector Confers With Vaughn.
Columbia, Oct. 30.?Hendrix Rector,
nominee for sheriff of Greenville, and
two other men, the (names of whom are
not definitely known, held a conference
here today with T. U. Vaughn.
Just why the conference was held and
the matters discussed is not known.
