PRAISE AND CRITICISM DEALT OUT The Convention of 1880 and Gar- field's Nomination Discussed. a PRESIDENT HAYES PRAISED “John Sherman's Recollections of Forty Years in the House, Senate and Cabinet,” the work of the distinguished Ohio Senator, which has been expected for some time, has just been published in Chicago. It is an ex- ceedingly interesting work, mark:d by frankness of statement and simplicity of style. Grant, Garfield, Blaine, Arthur, Harrison and other republican leaders are spoken of with unstinted praise for their high per- sonal worth or statesmanship, but none of them esgape criticism. The criticism is al- most invariably implied rather than direct, but it stands out clearly in the work as a whole. The Convention of 1880. Speaking of the national convention of 1880, where Garfield, going as the leader of the Sierman forces, was himself nominated for the presidency, Mr. Sherman says, after indicating by correspondence that Garfleld had been his political protege: “In time I became thoroughly advised of what occurred at the Chicago convention, and had become entirely reconciled to the result, though frequently ofterward I heard incidents and details which occasioned me great pain and which seemed to establish the want of si cerity on the part of some of the dele and tended to show that for some time bs fore the meeting of the convention the nom- ination of General Garfield had been agreed upon."” The sting felt by Garfield's defection in 1880 is further shown by a sentiment ex- pressed during the discussion of the national convention of 182, where the Senator re- marks: “From later developments, I became sat!s- fied that Harrison could not be elect=d, that Platt and a powerful New York influence would defeat him if nominated. I iherefore preferred the nomination of a new man, such as Willlam McKinley, but he had committed himself to Harrison, and, according to my code of honor, could not accept a nomina- tion even if tendere¢e him Garfield’s Cabinet Formation. Relating to the formation of Garfield’s cabinet he says: “In the latter part of November, 1880, General Garfield came to Washington and called upon Mr. Blaine, who, it was under- steod, was to be Secretary of State. Gar- field came to my house directly from Blaine’s, and informed me that he had ten- dered that office to Blaine, and that it was accepted. Hé sald that Blaine thought it would not be politic to continue me as Sec- retary of the Treasury, as it would be re- garded as an unfriendly discrimination by other members of Hayes’ cabinet. I prompt- ly replied that I agreed with the opinion of Blaine, and was a candidate for the Sen- ate.” Again the author reverts to the Chicago convention in discussing the character of President Garfield. Of his personality and eloquence he speaks in the highest terms. His will power, he says, was not up to his personal magnetism. He adds that his opinion changed easily. In this connection he says: “When I proposed to him to be a dele- gate-at-large te the Chicago convention he no doubt meant it In good faith to support my nomination.” Gen. Speaking of the noi raison in 1888, Mr. Sherman says that he became satisfied that one delegate from New York controlled the entire delegation from that state, and between Saturday night, when the nomination seemed certain to go to Sherman, and Monday morning, when the tide turned in favor of Harrison, a corrupt bargain was made in the interest of the ijatier, which secured him the sup- port of New York and gave him the nomi- nation. Continuing, the author states in fairness to the ex-President: “It is to the credit of General Harrison to say that if the reputed bargain was made it was without his consent at the time.” He says that he did not regard Harrison as 4 good candidate in 1802. Indicating President Grant's indifference to statecraft, he says that “During the en- tire period of Grant's administration I was chairman of the committee on finance of the Senate, and had to act upon all ques- tions of taxation, debt, banking or finance, and had occasion to talk with the President upon such measures, but he rarely ex- pressed any opinion or took any interest in them. The criticisms of President Arthur, chief- ly relating back to the time before he be- came President, and was removed from the collectorship of the port of New York, are not complimentary. Praise for President Hayes. Mr. Sherman speaks of President Hayes in terms of warm praise and dwells upon incidents of their friendly association. When near the close of his term, “he (Hayes) gave the usual dinner to members of the outgoing and the in- ceming cabinets. It was purely an official dinner, but Hayes said there were two gendlemen present who were not in office. We looked around to see who the unhappy two were and found they were Garfield and myself. Garfield had not yet become Pres- ident and I had resigned as Secretary the day before. This happered to be the only day that I was not in public office since March 4, 185 Opinion of Johnson. He refers to President Johnson as a slave to his passiors, and as “a foolish and stubborn man, doing even right things in a wrong way, and in a position where the evil that he does is immensely increased by his manner of doing it.” Referring to criticisms that have been passed upon himself, Mr. Sherman says: “I have often since been accused of the erime of ‘being rich,’ but as nearly all my possessions are visible to the naked eye, and their history and acquisition are known to so many, I think I am not required to prove that I have not made them as the resul* of legislation or my holding of pub- AN ANNIVERSARY.

He died at Prévidence Hos- pital Wednesday morning, and just when he will be buried is not known. If the au- thorities are fully satisfied that he did serve in the war he will be buried at Ar- lirgton, but if he was in the army since the war potter's field or a disecting college will get his body. It Is certain that he was a soldier, and was here looking after a pen- sion. As he is no doubt more than sixty years old, it 1s thought he figured in the war. IN THE LAW SCHOOLS. Recent Happenings Among Students and Professors. The law schools are now fairly started on the year’s work. Usually a number of students are registered after the term be- gins, and it is almost impossible to get the classes in shape and commence work in earnest until the middle of October. The National has this year, in recognition of the growing importance of the subject cf patent law, a:sociated with its course the “Patent Office Law Association,” an organization which, for the past two years, pas been conducting a moot court for the trial of patent cases. Mr. Philip Mauro, has been engaged as lecturer on the jurisdiction and practice of the courts and judge cf the moot court. Only grad- uates in law and members of the bar who are already familiar with the substantive law of patents are admitted to member- ship, the preference being given to grad- uates of the National. The course was in- augurated Wednesday night with a pre- liminary lecture by Mr. Mauro. A meeting of the senior class was held last week, at which the class organization Was effected. The following officers were elected: President, Arthur B. Shelton; vice president, Arnold: H. Graves; secre- tary, Allan M. Johnson; treasurer, John F. Bartlett.
