Quite a few year ago, when George It f'ortelyou, during McKlnley's first administration, ' was promoted to the poult Ion of secretary to the president, the -newspaper . correspondent In "Wnhlngton (Uncovered a new quantity In public, life. They had grown used to deceptive or evasive replies In an swer to leading question, Corlelyou employed neither deception or evasion. If he ws not prepared u give the In formation asked, he nld simply, "I can't -tell you." In a month the correspondents had changed his name from "Oor-tel-you" to "Ctin't-U'll-you." And It stuck like the papr nn the wall. Iom that lny to this Onrtelyou has enjoyed the rep utation' of being able to any lew and "l It more Impressively than any man In public 11 f p. - It hst,ben the 'fr- telyou polio-" to keep his mouth shut, and In the malntalnunce of this policy tie has had little competition and few Imitators. Moat men In public life find It difficult to dodge leading ques tions except by resort to untruthful neM, and thia seldom fotchse .them more than temporary gain. Put the point I that, according to present Indications, Cortelyou's policy of silence may land him the nomina tion for vice-president. If Corlelyou Is nominated at Chicago It will be very largely became he ha refused during the past eight months to be drawn Into any sort of a discussion of politics It Is doubtful if 'Cortelyou's best friend knows whether hie preference Is for Taft or for one of the "allied" candi dates. He has maintained friendly re lations with all of them, and has been too friendly with none. Once, In an swer to charges that he was giving . RooMvelt the "double cross," Cortel you gave out a statement to the effect that he was not at that time a, candi date for president. Since then, on all questions of poll lies, he' hits been silent as the tonih. FYom time to time his name has been mentioned is a possible "dark hois." nl Chicago, but to nil auch siikk' -ton Corlelyou hsii hiMl not a word to sa;, He bits gone about the business of the tivnsury depart ment though there was no surh thing on earth a a nittlomit conven tion or a pri sldentlnl election. History Is nm without lrtance where men hnve talked themselves Into polltliHl preferment, but Corlel you furnishes the first notable cuss wher preferment threaten to comet as the result of masterful silence.
