In New York be was az dinner Of the

Mr.. Window was a popular man and

he Brought It on Himself.

A smile. clildlike and bland, must have
played around the mouth Of Hon. Joseph E.
Brown, the senior Georgia senator, when
the news reached him that the Hon. John
J. Ingalls,, senator from Kansas, would not
be gladiatorlal wrangler in the senatorial
arena after March 4. Once upon a time,
not many years ago, Senators Brown and
Iagalls had a little war Of words in the Sen
ate chamber. and although the Kansas
senator was cauStic, bitter and vindictive in
bis remarks, indicating, 1t may be surmised.
that be had received several home thrusts,
the Georgia senator was good enough 10 say
that the Kansas senator had brought it
upon himself
There is no doubt that the Kansas senator
brought his recent defeat upon himself. He
was never in thorough harmony with the
people Of bis state. The great majority Of
the Kansas people are willing to admit that
the war is over. They are more concerned
about getting living for themselves and
families than about issues that ought to
have been abandoned when the war ended.
ingalls, has shaped his course in public life as
IL hs thought the war was still going on. He
may have believed that he was pleasing
his constituents, ara the noisy approval, Of
a few politicians may have confirmed
him In that belief. Too late be found out,
however, that he never understood the peo-
pie he was chosen to represent, and that he
never got lodguent in their hearts. They
admired his brilliant rhetoric, but they felt
thsthe was not in sympathy with them.
They saw that he had never done anything
for them aud they believed that he never
would.
Hedepend ed upon his reputation as an
orator and his ability TO say things which
attracted attention 20 keep him aAoAt in
political life. He nov, doubtless, appreciates
the mistake ne made. And In the matter
of religion he permitted his desire TO get
himself talked about to separate him from
his people. More than once he gave utter
snce In public addresses 20 thoughts which
gave rise TO a suspicion that he was, If not
an inhdel, at least an agnostic. The
plain farmers of Kansas, having
deeply rooted religious convictions, could
net understand the speculations of their
brilliant senator relative to christian be-
lisfs. nor did they appreciate them. They
made no demonstration of their disap-
proval, but when their sympathy and sup
port were needed by him they made no
RESPONSE. They felt that he was out OF
touch with them. Their alliance move
naept, which grew out of feeling that
their burdens were becoming greater than
they could bear, received no encourage
msnt from him. The alliance. therefore,
held aloof from him when he begged it to
lend him helping hand. With his talents,
Senator Ingalls, had itin his power to keep
his senatorial Office for life. He owes his
loss Of it to himself.

What Can They Do Ano Ut LIP

Senator Cameron, of Pennsylvania, is a
target for the wrath Of those of the repub-
licau Representatives from his state who are
anxious that the force bill shall become a
law. AS soon as IL became known through
out the capital the other day that he had
voted with the democrats to lay aside the
closure rule aud take up the apportionment
bill they began applying to him such cpl
thets as assistant democrat ''ingrate"
traitor" He coolly informed them that
he had just been reelected for six years, that
he had done what he thought was right, and
asked them what they purposed to do about
it As they could do nothing they decided
that the wisest course to pursue was to let
him alone.
Senator Cameron may not be a great
orator or great statesman, but It can be
said to his credit that he has the courage to
act in accordance with his convictions. He
is q stanch republican, bus he is not the
kind OF republican to act with his party
when he believes his party is wrong. On
several occasions in his political career he
has broken away from his party and voted
against it. And his doing 50 has not in
iured his popularity with his constituents
The leading republican paper of his state
tried to prevent him from being reelected.
What 1t said, however. didn't hurt him in
the least. He was renominated and re-
elected almost without an effort.
Some of his political enemies have tried
to make capital out of his friendly relations
with Senator Butler of South Carolina.
They have even gone SO far as to say that
Senator Butler controls his vote upon ques-
tions in which the south is interested.
| No sensible and fair-minded
man ever gave a second thought
to such nonsense as that, however. He and
Senator Butler are great friends, and have
been for years. but it is about certain that
neither attempts to influence the action Of
the other in political matters.
Senator Cameron is against the force bill
because he knows that it is an unwiss meas
Urea measure that would do great deal
Of harm, and no good whatever. He would
be unworthy of the high position he holds
If he were to let such an old granny as
Hoar bulldoze him into acting against his
| convictions.

One of the curiosities of crime in Michi-
gan is an old man at Grand Rapids, who
can not even write his own name. but who
yet managed to find some twelve or fifteen
widows to marry him under the impression
that he could get them pensions for the war
record Of their former husbands. 1t is pos
itively astonishing how rapidly fools do
accumulate in this world. Widows in Mich.
igan must be wildly anxious for another
matrimonial experience that they should
take strange man who cannot even sign
his own name

Stories About Mayor Grant.

Mayor Grant, OF New York, was in Sa-
vannah on Wednesday, admiring the beauty
OF her squares and her parks and viewing
the evidences Of her prosperity as seen along
her miles Of wharves He was in a happy
frame Of mind, and was enjoying himself
On the same day some of the New York
papers contained rather curious stories as
to his whereabouts. The Tribune, for in.
stance, was In doubt whether he was In a
darkened room at his residence or was on
his way to a southern city to have his eyes
treated by noted Southern specialist. The
same paper said that there was q rumor
which represented that southern members
of congress had planned the trip through
the south to convince the mayor that
Gov. Hills alleged presidential "boom'-
in that part Of the country had no ex-
istence.
It is somewhat remarkable that there
should have been any speculation at all as
to his whereabouts, or as to his purpose in
making a trip as far 80 nth as Florida. On
last Friday he stated openly, at a meeting
| Of some of the city officials which he
attended, that he was going south for a
some Of his friends that his eyes were Civ
ing him trouble.
Why, then, should rumor that he was
confined in dark room in his house have
been publisheda The mayor is frank and
truthful man, and there was no reason to
doubt that be had gone south.
But the rumor that he had gone south to
FIND if there was any sentiment in the south
ern states for Gov. Hill for President was
an idiotic one. He need not have left New
York TO have satisfied himself on that point
There is not a well Informed New Yorker
who does not know that Mr. Cleveland is
the only man whom the southern people are
thinking of for the democratic nomination
for President in 1892
But Mayor Grant is not hunting for a
southern eye doctor or Hill boom. He is
seeking recreation, and when he was in
Savannah he appeared to be finding it.
