Running for a_ cabinet office against a man who is firmly en- trenched and runs to succeed himself is a mighty tough race : for other contenders, for the man in office has a tremendous ad- vantage, and if Tom had chosen to remain in the office of attor- nev general it is extremely > doubtful if he would have had anv serious opposition.
