A Rival of DIR. Depew.

Charles Dudley Warner, Mark Twain,
Joe Hawley and Joe Twichell are
Hartford quartette. Warner belongs
here by his connection with Harpers;
Mark Twain is a New York publisher,
principal partner in the house of Charles
L. Webster & Co., which has grown rich,
not only by the publication of Marks
books but by the Life of General
Grant" and other important issues; Joe
Hawley belongs to the whole country;
the other Joe is Parson Joe Twichell,
of the Hartford Congregational church,
which the others attend; indeed, have
aeard that Mark Twain is one of the
deacons in the congregation. They
all live near one another in the fashion
able west end of Hartford, and when
occasion offers they are all down here
sometimes separately and often, say
in some of the big public dinners, all
together. 1t is the big dinner business
which lately has made Joe Twlchell
conspicuous and almost danger
Gus rival of Depew. He, like Depew,
is an alumnus of Yale, and has been
quite as conspicuous as Depew in the
annual alumni dinners. He is quite as
good an after-dinner speaker, quite as
humorous, much more original, and is
altogether what might be called a
fresher performer" At the New Eng
land society dinners he is almost as
much of an attraction as DR.. Depew, and
she is much younger and likely to last
longer, it will be natural that the mantle
of Depew should fall on the shoulders
of Twichell. Depew is deligh tful, but
New York pride is somewhat pricked
by the too prevailing impression that
Depew is not only the greatest, but the
only after-dinner speaker this great
city can show. This never will do-Dr.
Depew is an importation and there is
now an evident project to import
Twichel as an offset whenever a par
ticularly lively dinner offers the oppor-
tunity The additional advantage will
be that Parson Joe is likely to bring
along Gen. Joe, with Warner and
Mark Twain in the rear and before the
entire sparkling quartette even the bril-
liancy of Depew would be dimmed.

WAYNE MacVEAGH.

Our Democratic friends are deriving con-
siderable satisfaction over the announce
nlent OF General Wayne Veagh that lie
will vote for Cleveland. Mr.. MacVeagh
was a member of President Garfield's Cabi-
net and lawyer of repute. he separates
from the party with which he has been
identified 50 many years on two Issues
the tariff and the so-called force bill. He
does not believe in Reeds rules by which
legislation in the House was made possible.
In the period when MacVeagh was best
known the lines on the tariff issue were
less tightly drawn than now. There
were free trade Republicans and protec-
Zionist Democrats. President Garfield was
easy on that issue. 1t had been charged
against him that he was an honorary men,
Der of the Golden Club. His opponent,
Hancock, was a moderate protectionist.
Haneock's idea of tariff policy was to be
governed by conditions. AT one period a
protective policy might be wise, and at an
other period, under changed conditions,
it might be unwise. The two parties logged
along pretty nearly side by side on the tariff
issue until Mr. Cleveland sent his tariff for
revenue message to Congress. This woke
Republicans up. 1t also divided the Demo
cratic party, the larger portion going with
Mr. Cleveland. Randall Of Pennsylvania had
to give way to Carlisle of Kentucky. who
made Mills of Texas chairman of the Ways
and Means Committee. The Mills bill be-
came the leading issue in the following cam
paign and the voters decided against it.
The Mckinley bill was the natural out
come of that decision. As there were
Democrats who could not follow Cleveland,
so there were Republicans who protested
against the Mckinley tariff. MacVeagh,
a conservative well-meaning man, is one of
the latter. His open declaration of prefer
ence for Mr.. Cleveland may cost the Re-
publicans some votes in Pennsylvania, but
is OF likely TO have any considerable effect
upon the public mind. MacVesgh was not
cut out for a leader. Without being a
trimmer he has stood between the two
parties. preferring one for one thing, and
the other for another thing. He evidently
cannot digest such stroug food as the Me-
Kin}ey bill or the so-called force bill. On
general principles he favors a free ballot
box in the South, but shrinks from the
measure that may make il free. AS he is
considered good lawyer, his friends may
not see exactly how he will swallow the
plank in the Democratic platform declaring
protective tariff unconstitutional but he
may give that plank Pickwickian cOnstruc-
tien. That, however. is his lookout

THE way 1T WORKS.

4 telegram was published in THE CALL
on Wednesday, bearing date San Jose. which
reads as follows:
Tie Republican Club OF Santa Clara County to-
night Endorsed nearly the entire Democratic
legislative and county ticket. This action was
taken in view OF the dissatisfaction felt by the
members Of The club, which numbers about 400
al the tactics pfaetieed in the primaries and the
convention by the Rea gang.
1t is lamentable when a gang of plumber
ers obtain control of the machinery of q
party and bring out nominations which are
unfit 10 be made. We have reason to be-
lieye in this instance that ticket has been
forced upon the Republican party in Santa
Clara County the members of which, IL
elected, would go to Sacramento and engage
in the usual system of robbery. THE CALL
believes the time is past when persons viii
be tolerated as candidates for important
Offices who would not be trusted by ordi-
nary business men. San Jose seems to have
a com binatlen the members of which con-
slider 1t rather smart to rob the public.

DEMOCRATIC RoUGHs.

The organ Of Kelly and Crimmins is much
disturbed at the supervision of registra-
tion by Federal marshals and the local
police II describes the watchful officials
who ask Kelly-Crimmins suffers peTplex-
ing questions as democratic suffers"
Among them, says the frantic organ, there
were known thieves, eX-convicts and mur-
derers, whose business it was to bullyrag
aad intimidate respectable Republicans
from placing their names on the register.
We are informed also that "most Of the
huldozing work was done through the
Democratic United States Supervisors Of
Elections, who, cloaked with the authority
Of the United States Government answered
to the beck and call Of every heller who
asked their assistance and threatened with
arrest such Republicans as they thought
were weak-spirited enough to stand intimi-
dation."
This is the sample of a column in the
Kely-CTimmins organ. The CALL of the
same morning gave the names and addresses
Of nearly all the men who were prevented
from putting their names on the register.
Careful examination showed that they were
not respectable Republicans. aud that if
they have places Of residence they chose
not TO give them. Nothing could be made
more plain than that they were trying to
carry ont contracts made with some firm of
political bosses to get their names on the
register.
Some years ago a Republican orator

sJhief Of Police Is also Republican, and his
instructions to the officers detailed to watch
proceedings at the registration Office are to
arrest promptly "any and all persons who
may violate the registration law or who may
