Former Attorney General of Oregon. I have known Warren G. Harding since he was about 19 years old He came to Marion from an adjoin ing county, having just received his of Iberia Colleee, a small but I thorough institution located about 20 miles from Marion. This, l oenev, was in 1883, the year before I camo to Oregon, but having spent nearly every vacation for 20 years at my old home, I became intimately ac quainted with him and familiar with his career from the beginning. He was tall, angular in build, with a look, action and deliberation that would credit him with being very much older. His first employment was on the Weekly Mirror, a news paper edited in our town whose chief business consisted in disseminating democratic doctrine throughout Mar ion county. He was employed on this paper as typesetter and report er combined and his services became useful although he was of a differ ent political persuasion. His con nection, however, with this demo cratic oracle was not of long dura tion as he joined the Blaine club and of course purchased and wore one of the ' large white Blaine hats. This was objectional to the editor of the democratic oracle and he was order ed to make a change of his head gear. He informed the author of this order that he believed this coun try allowed every man to wear such clothes as he might deem best suit-; ed to his own taste so long as it did not offend public decency and in his opinion, this hat did not have that distressing quality and he proposed to follow his own judgment in that matter. He was then summarily fired. Built up Enterprising Daily. He shortly afterwards became proprietor of the Marion Daily Star and by his untiring energy, uncom promising frugality and economy, he built up this little daily sheet from an eight by ten double folio to one of the most enterprising and widely circulating papers in north ern Ohio. He entered politics first in his Dorft aalt for rnfe.LoncC Distance Say There's a personal element that you feel when you place a Northwestern call.

In 1898 he became a cam!. date for state senator from one . in tra including Marion. Hardon, I gan and Union count.es. He was elected by a largo majority am again in 1000 re-elected to the name office. 1" 1902 be became a candi date for lieutenant-governor and was elected by an increased majority. In 1904 he was solicited again to run for lieutenant-governor, but refused and retired to private life. Never Kan Against Cox. It has been generally heralded throughout the country by the op posing party that he was beaten by Cox for governor, hut he has never been a candidate against Cox. In 1914 he was candidate for Uni ted States senator against Joseph! B. Foraker, one of the strongest and ablest men in the republican party at that time and who had l'en rep resenting Ohio in the United States senate for years. This was the first nrimarv election held in Ohio and i his majority over Foraker was more i than one hundred thousand. After his energy, frugality and brains had brought him and his paper into prominence, he was brought more actively into social life, and he became acquainted with the daughter of Amos II. Kling, a! resident of Marion and the wealth-' iest man in the county. His (laugh-1 ter was an accomplished woman, 1 with an unlimited amount of com. mon sense backed by keen discern ment and she soon saw in Warren G. Harding those strong possibilities which afterwards ripened into real ities. They eventually were mar- ' ried, not by eloping, but by Florence Kling stating to her father that she ' intended to marry Warren G. Hard- i inc irrespective of his wishes if it ; became necessary to do so without ' his consent. She did so, having a ! mind of her own, being very' much in ' nature ana uisposition line ner lather. . y This, however, was in direct opposi- j I tion to her father's wish and he I would not be and was not reconciled until many years afterwards, but when he became acquainted with the striking character, the progressive spirit and the popularity of his in-law, he relented and for years before his death they warm friends. A Student of Government. Senator Harding has made a spec ial study of the fundamental princi ples of our government. There are few lawyers who understand the fundamental principles of govern ment better than he. In a speech delivered before the Ohio society in New York, before he became a can didate, he shows himself to be the master of every principle and policy underlying the foundation of dem ocratic covernmpnt He is broad minded n,l i; his views with a peculiar disposition and patience as a listener, with a kindly and ccntlo not lira itthil, o uv Trillin iihs often been referred to as a likeness to the beloved William McKinley. i may say that he has many of the I characteristics of Ex-Presid M. Kinley but with them he has a much more forcible nature and s t,n,.. analytical mind. He is a big man, physically and mentally, knowing all the phases of life f . .' j - - -- i'uveii-y aim hard work to the most exalted nosi. tion which is now his. Mrs. Harding Brilliant Woman. For his progress and exalted pos ition, he owes miifh tr. TW. tt.i. . Immediately after her marriage sh went from a home of comfort and af fluence and took up her place in hi office and assisted him in the con duct and issuing of his paper. She is a brilliant woman, endowed with common sense, and her knowledge "T "ttLure is marvelous. With the courage and assistance of Mrs. Harding, combined with his extraordinary courage, determina- .,u nearty exertion, he has reacnea the positon coveted by every """wuu man who has good American blood in his veins.
