What was regarcded as the best; cummary of the man was an utter- ance by Elihu Root when he was Secretary of State. Mr. Gillett went to the State Department in the in- | terest of a constituent and as he |left, Secretary Ropt turned to a | friend and said: Was A Gentleman “It is interesting to see in Mr. Gillett the necessities of politics struggling with the instincts of a |Hoar, widow of Rockwood Hoar, gentleman.” Although he made few speeches, Senator Gillett'’s addresses in the House and Senate always were pointed, often replete with irony and humer, and in debate there were times when he was merciless.' Once in the House during a discus- sion of corrupt practices legislation, designed to purify elections, he said: “Everybody here—at least almost overybody here—is against the pur- chasing of votes.” The remark went over the heads of none. Wins Respect The courtesy and dignity of Sen- ator ‘Gillett when he was Speaker of the House won the respect of Republicans and Demogcrats alike. In contrast to some speakers who wielded®the gavel with the strength of a bollermaker, Mr. Gillett =m- ployed a lght tap. At first that method did not bring immediate results, but when the members be- gan to understand their speaker it became effective. Senator Gillett was born at West- field, Mass,, October 16, 1851, the son of Edward B. and Lucy Fowler Gillett. His father and maternal grandfather were lawyers and he began his early training for that profession under his father. After his public school education, the sen- ator spent a year in foreign travel, studying German, Greek and Latin. He was graduated at Amherst Col- lege in 1874 and at the Harvard Law Schoo] three years later. Interested in Politics Entering the practice of law at Springfield, Senator Gillett soon becameé interested in politics and was elected to the common council. He served as an assistant attorney general of Massachusetts from 1879 to 1882 ‘and in the state legislature in 1890 and 1891. The next year he began his long service in Con- gress, having rounded out 32 years in the lower house when he was elected United States Senator.

Some 12,000 teachers were in at- tendance and every one of them wanted to know about Alaska, he said. As soon as it was learned Mr. Hawkesworth was from the Terri- tory he was deluded with ques- tions about Alaska. The main ques- tion was “how can we get there?" Not only the teachers but everyone, touri especially, were interested in the North, he said, in forecast- ing that the influx of people to Alas is a foregone conclusion. Washington Torrid Place Despi the heat, Mr. Hawkes- worth enjoyed this journey across the nation in the air-cooled trains, but found Washington a torrid place with everyone seeking a cool spot. Regardless of the stifling tem- perature, Delegate Dimond was right on the job, he said, and work- ing diligently in behalf of Alaska and its people. Plans for a Congressional delega- tion to visit Alaska when Congress adjourned are now underway and Mr. Hawkesworth assisted Paul W. Gordon, Education Director, in working out an itinerary.
