tProm the New York worid.l
"Ruthey, dear" said Mrs. Hayes TO
her husband at breakfast as she un-
folded tho Ohio STATE journal, which is
her favorito newspaper; $50 your let
ter Of acceptance has come out2"
"Has it, my love 2" replied the Gov
ernor. q understood that il would
hardly be ready before Tuesday night"
Mrs. Hayes read in silence for a few
moments then, with o wild surprise,
as it appeared to your correspondent,
who had with true journalistic instinct
concealed himself beneath the break
fast table, said:
"Why, Ruthy, what do you mean
by saying the resolutions are in ac-
cordancc withmy views2' You know
as we'll as l do that when the platform
was adopted you told mo yourself that
the money plank wasn't match with
your interview in the Commercial"
"Hush ! my love, hush p said the
governor with uneasincss suppose
some Of the servants should overhear
youl What wrote was Most of the
resolutions are in accordance with my
views, and ! suppose the printers
made u mistake"
There was silence, broken only by
the munchhg of toast, till the teapot
was set down with a violence that
made the table crockcry jump. Then
Mrs. Hayes low, hute-lke tones, full
of melody as the murmur of n hidden
brook, were heard.
Rutherford, you say, If elected,
| shall conduct the administration Of
the government upon these principles,
and all Constitutional powers vested in
the executive will be employed to es-
tablish this reform Can you sit in
that chair and look me in the face ai.
ter writing that ? ( Didn't you promise
me about brother Peter, and cousin
Webb, and your nephew Edward, and
aunt Jerusha's three boys, and all the
family2 What did / hear you tell Mr.
Scburz about Madrid? Why did Mr.
Blaine telegraph yon that If he had the
department of the Interior he would
not prove deadhead in the enterprise
and to burn the letters so there couldn't
be any, more Mulliganing2 What did
you write to- Mr. Cameron What
did you promise Mr.. Chandlerg And
after all this to go and write"
"But, my angel" expostulated the
compromise candidate II didn't write
il, ! shall make point. of telling
Simon that he put that too strong
But these letters are only matters Of
form; they don't mean anything"
20, they don't don't they p replied
Mrs. Hayes, with, as the reporter in
a sarcastic smile. 81 suppose,
Mr.. Hayes, this doesn't mean anything
either, where you come out for a single |
presidential termY 1 suppose, Mr..
Hayes, you didn't mean anything when
you told Mr.. Cromble to try and find
good tenant for the house for eight
years from next March :? suppose
you didn't mean anything when you
ran three times for governor and twice
for Congress-" stf st,sg aw AZ |
