Senator ingalls, is one of the peculiar
characters of the country, says the Boston
Herald He IS without strong political !
and he is constantly posing for
political effect; and yet he is too much a
man of culture and too picturesque in his |
personality to be altogether demogogue. |
He is capable of saying any reckless
things under temptation, and his love of |
making any sensation is such that it runs
away with his prudence altogether at
times. In this way he can be quoted in |
utterances than tend to injure both him |
self and his party He is not specially |
about the effect on the latter, 50 |
that ne himself escapes, and this he is, we |
are inclined to think, likely TO do. Kansas |
people get impatient with him at times. or |
some of than do, but in the end they are |
likely TO recognize that he is a senator /
that they can not easily replace in point of |
prominence, if not of influence before the 4
nation. We expect ingalls, will remain, |
therefore. in the senate six years longer.
1t is the place in public life which he pre-
fers above all others. as it is best adapted
to show off those points which he desires
to make conspicuous.
