HE death of Mr. Cleveland leaves the United States for the thir with no living ex-President. only man alive who has filled the office of President of the United States Theodore Roosevelt. | whose present term will not expire until March next. | Beginning with the inauguration of George Washington in 1789,) twenty-five men have filled the office | of President in the intervening 119| : years. Of these twenty-five five! —Tyler, Fillmore, Johnson, Arthur and Roosevelt—were elected Vice-| President and became President through the deaths of Harrison, Taylor, | Lincoln, Garfield and McKinley. Of these five Mr. Roosevelt is the only | one to have been elected President. | Mr. Cleveland, dying at the age of seventy-one, passed away at} about the average age at h Presidents have died. He was four years | older. than George Washington, twelve years younger than Thomas Jef-| ferson and nineteen years younger than John Adams, who lived to the) age of ninety, the oldest of them all. The youngest President to die re5 Garfield, at the age of forty-nine. His death was untimely, through assas- | sination. The youngest to die of disease was Polk, at fifty-three, who, lived only a few months after his term of office expired. | is WA uli Of all the Presidents Mr. Cleveland ranks among the first four or} five in his effect upon the political trend of the United States and in his| decided action upon great political questions. Thomas Jefferson settled by his administration that the United States | would be a democracy and not an aristocracy or an oligarchy, as was the trend of Hamilton and John Adams. Andrew Jackson settled in his treatment of South Carolina’s at- tempted nullification that the United States are a union and that the col- lective sovereignty of all the States must prevail over the individual sov- ereignty of any one. i Abraham Lincoln settled it that in the United States personal rights are superior to property rights and that no control by one man over an-| other man’s earnings, efforts, ambitions or services will be part of the} Constitutional struciure. | Grover Cleveland settled the money question, that the dollar of the United States shall be as good as the money of any other country on the face of the earth. sed judgment of what any man in a place of public Prominence and power has done during his lifetime requires sufficient perspective after his death to arrange his success and his failures, his strength and his shortcomings in their proper permanent relations. praise, because the main virtues that some other Presidents have pos- sessed were caused by lack of fault, not by an excess of strength, deter- |} mination and self-reliance.
