THEY WANT HILL
The Observations of a Fort Worth Dem
ocrat Abroad

Secretary of State.

ocrat Abroad.
A GAZETTE reporter yesterday met T T.
D. Andrews and questioned him regarding
the political situation in the East, he hay
ing just returned from trip. In response
to the reporters request for q statement
regarding the Democratic possibilities he
said:
III shave recently returned from an ex-
tended trip to Washington, D. c., and other
Eastern points and through the South At
lantic states, and learned much of interest
TO me concerning national politics. Mr.
Cleveland has large and enthusiastic fol-
lowing everywhere, but many who would
like to see him president again are fearful
of his nomination, believing it impossible
for him to carry New York. having
been defeated at time when
he was the nations chief with all
the prestige such exalted station bestows
How can we expect him to be elected now.
shorn OF this powers On the other hand
if an Eastern man is TO be chosen, ex-
Governor Hill of New York seems to be
the preference. Since his remarkable po-
itical exploits in redeeming that state from
Republican control and placing it perma-
nently in the Democratic column, he is
looked upon as the embodiment of
political success; and while he is
regarded as great politician,
whose first impulse is the triumph of his
party, his transcendent craftsmanship has
alike commended itself to the profound at
tention OF his countrymen.
i met during my absence quite a number
OF Democrats who expressed themselves
favorable TO the nomination of a Western
man for the presidency, yet in no instance
did any one deny Ex-Governor HIS ability
II nominated to carry the doubtful Eastern
states. They gave MIR. Hill credit for being
a great political organizer, and it is conceded
that his nomination would quicken the
vslor OF Democrats everywhere, as they
feel his election would mean the complete

CAPTAIN KARL.
Chas. A. Gardner and His New PIay-"A
Turkish Rath.''.


Chas. A. Gardner and His New PIay-"A
Turkish Bath.''-
A crowded house greeted Chas. A. Gard
ner in his new play of Captain Karr' last
night. Since Joe Emmett's death there is
no German comedian on the stage who has
gained so strong a position in popular
favor as has Gardner. His play resembles
in many features the old one of Father
land, but it is brighter and stronger in
every way, especially catchy being
his songs Invitation to the Wedding, .
Love IS Divine, Language of Flowers, ;"
''Sweet Land Tryol,'' Captain Karl's
March" Cradle Song" Bubble Song, )"
and his great success, 1.-THE Lilac" Of
these possibly none are more appreciated
than THE Lilac" which, like 10 Emmet's
"Cockoo Song" is thoroughly identified
with the singer. The Bubble Song"i is new
and brought down the house. Another strong
features of the new play is the old favorite
tyrolean quartette, composed of Carrie
Grauss, soprano; Ignace Conrad, tenor
robuSto; MirZl Meister, alto; and Frank
Grauss, basso; their yodeling being very
effective. The play is built for Gard
ner, obut there is nothing new in
the theme. 1t is very handsomely set and
appropriately costumed. The support is
well balanced and strong Taken as a
whole the play is a very attractive one and
more pleasing than the average German or
Irish comedy.
TURKISH BATH.
Next Saturday, matinee and night. Man
ager Greenwau will give US a Turkish
Bath. The Sedalia Democrat says: No
comedy so breezy and brilliant has been
seen in Sedaha this season as that which
was presented by the Turkish Bath
company at Woods opera house last night.
The thread of the comedy is neatly strung
with dainty specialties in vocalization,
dancing and impersonations, and with Just
enough plot to serve the purposes of the
piece.

myself a candidate for mayor, it will be i'm
possible for me TO see very many of you

You know my views on certain subjects,

many have asked my views.
As already stated in my announcement, I
am in favor Of doing everything necessary

and 1 am in favor of progress, tempered
with conservatism.
Ihave been soSpften as ed whether or not
am in favor of the cE buying certain
lands for city Nparl said lands being
situated in the ''bbttfnp of Clear Fork,
that am led TO belle that this is an issue
of the present contdt for the mayoraltys
and am. in fact. assfed by many that it is.
To those famiiarfvtth my course in tlls'

sary to refer to m position on the subject;
but believing that she vdkers have the right
to know my yiewssI sayAthat l have ever
opposed this scheme and SHALL do it if elected
mayor. In like manner, " shall oppose
every project which savorsAof an endeayor
to sell to the city property untitled for its
purposes at a price so far in excess of It's
actual value. At the proper time, when
the city shall be offered suitable land at
fam price, / shall heartily advocate the
purchase Of a city park in some proper 10
eality. Our present rates of valuation, and
consequently our taxes. are too high, and
there IS absolutely no chance Of buying
city park in our present situation, even if
properly situated and offered at price
commensurate with the intrinsic value of
the Land. Very respectfully.

The Public Library Again.

To tho Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal:
The public are keenly sensitive to every
thing seriously affecting the library. This
has been made manifest in the strong pro-
tests of the newspapers against the retire.
ment of the present librarian. He has been
honest. earnest. capable and successful.
The patrons of the library are sure that he
is the right man in the right place. and
that trading horses while crossing the
stream Is poor business. If the extent and
force of feeling on the subject were under
stood by the entlemen of the school
board 1t can scarcely be doubted that they
would take pleasure in pleasing the public
by changing the toO-evenly-dIvid ed vote.
The library has been dong well. Let us
not. at the present juncture especially,
venture upon any hazardous experiment..
