BEIL HyE TO GROVER.

MY Dear Dir. - Oh nave now as
sumed a new duty and taken upon
yourself an additional responsibility.
Not content with the great weight Of
national affairs, sufficient to crush any
pachyderm, you haYe cheerfulIy and
almost gleefally become a married
man. While cannot agree with you
/ politically, Grover, am forced to ad-
mire your courage.
This morning new life opens to
you-the life Of a married man. 1t is
indeed a humiliating situation, to be
president of the United States, the
roustabout Of a free people, is a trying
situation; but to be a newly married
president, married in the full glare Of
Of official life, with the eye of divided
CONTINGENCY upon you, is to place
yourself where nerve is absolutely es-
sential.
| T. too, am married, but not under
such trying circumstances. Others
have been married and still lived Init
! it has remained for YOU vouno Is YOU
are, to pose as Il newly married
president and to take YOUR new mother
in-law into the cabinet with you. For
/ this reason. 7 saw freely Thai 70 walk
a sIak rope across the moist brow of
the Niagara and carry a nervous man
in a wheelbarrow sinks into a mere
common place. Danial PLAYING tag"
with a denfull Of half-staryed lions be-
comes a historic cipher, and the He
brew children on a rosy bed of red-hot
clinkers in the fiery furnace, are al
most forgotten.
With a large wad of civil service
wedged in among your back teeth, a
LARGER fragment, perhaps, than YOU
YOU were prepared 10 masticate when
you bit it off: with an agonized
Southern Democracy and a clamorous
Northern constituency with dissapoint-
ment poorly concealed among YOUR
friends and biIarIfv onenlv EXPRESSED
