CHARLES IN. FAIRBANKS
IS CALLED TO BEYOND
(Continued from Page One)
< cllege at Delaware, Ohio, sharing an
attic room with the son of another
farmer, and the two cooked their own
meals. Fairbanks did carpenter work
to earn his first law books.
Soon after he was graduated, Mr.
Fairbanks was appointed agent of the
Associated Press a< Pittsburgh, Pa.
holding that position for one year
His most important assignment was
the rally of the Democrats and Lib
eral Republicans in 1872. This was
the largest meeting of the campaign
and was addressed by Horace Gree
ley. Later in life he frequently re
ferred with keen delight to his work
as a newspaper man.
From Pittsburgh Mr. Fairbanks
went to Cleveland and completed his
law course. In 1874 he married Miss
. Cornelia Cole, the culmination of a
iomance that began when both were
members of the editorial staff of
their college paper. To them were
born five children, one daughter and
four sons
After marriage Mr. Fairbanks
moved to Indianapolis and opened a
law office. He took a deep interest
5n politics and assisted in local, state
^and national campaigns, managed
^Walter Q. Gresham’s campaign for
the Republican nomination for the
presidency in 1888 and later labored
industriously for Benjamin Harri
ton’s nomination.
■ It has been stated many times that
Mr. Fairbanks did more to commit
the Republican party in Indiana to
the gold standard in 1896 than any
other man, and that he wrote the
money plank in the national platform
adopted at the St. Louis Convention,
over which he presided as temporary
chairman. When William McKinley
was nominated for the presidency
Mr. Fairbanks toured the country in
his interests.
In January, 1897, Mr. Fairbanks
was elected to the United States sen
ate. He took his seat on March 4,
the day on Which McKinley became
president. He became a close adviser
of the president in the trying times
before and during the Spanish-Amer
ican war
Among Mr. Fairbanks’ greatest
services to this country were those
performed while he was a member of
the United States and British joint
commission, which dealt with thfe
Alaskan boundary, lake fishing and
other questions.
Mr. Fairbanks was recognized as
one of the national leaders of the
Republican party, and as such was
made chairman of the committee on
resolutions at the Philadelphia na
tional convention in 1900. He re
signed from the senate March 4, 1905,
having been elected vice president on
the Republican ticket with Theodore
Roosevelt.
While he was vice president, Mr.
Fairbanks in 1908 became a candi
date for the nomination for president.
He was defeated by William H. Taft
and after his term as vice president
ended he went back to the practice
of law.

KENT TERMS
WICK PROTEST
SEATTLE, June 5— Otis E. Kent,
examiner-attorney for the United
States shipping board, at a continua
tion of the investigation of rates and
practices of Alaska steamship lines
here yesterday, said that former Del
egate James Wickersham and the
shippers who had caused the investi
gation have no concrete basis for the
complaint.
Mr. Kent and his associates re
turned to this city Sunday after a
tour of the North. During the course
of their investigations they were told
that rates were too high, but no con
crete suggestions as to the reason
were offered. Mr. Kent said that
eleven minor grievances of shippers
were discovered, and the conference
immediately took up their considera
tion with the steamship companies.
The first two items related to rates
on fresh meats and charges for car
load and less than carload lots of
fresh and salted fish from Alaska.
