date for the United States senate, there
was general laugh. When, however,
the reporters told how popular he was
at his home, and his splendid manage
ment as chairman of the state commit
tee since 1887 was recalled, his support
ers grew more enthusiastic, while his
opponents greatly increased in bitter
ness. 1t mattered little, however, for
Governor David B. Hill was elected to
the place.
This year there is no laughing over
Mr.. Murphy's candidacy. The eloquent
Bourke Cochran, Editor Charles A. Dana,
Governor Flower, Lieutenant Governor
Sheehan, Hon. Smith NJ. Weed and others
are spoken of as candidates against him.
In New Jersey Governor Leon Albeit
is making his third race for the United
States senate, free from the entangle-
ments which defeated him in 1887 and
1889. In the former year he received
the caucus nomination, but few Demo
Gratis bolted. Joined the Republicans and
elected the present senator, Rufus Blod-
gett. He Is Democrat and otherwise
acceptable TO New Jersey; nevertheless
the party in that state has strong preju-
dice in favor of standing by the party
caucus. Governor Albeit began his po-
htical life as corporation attorney Of Ho-
boken in 1868 and was elected governor
in 1884 and again In 1889. That year he
again made motions toward the senate,
but John r. Mcpherson got the caucus
nomination His most active opponent
is Hon. James Smith, Jr., of Newark.
In Delaware there was Gray Bayard
contest, but the --latest tip" is that the
present senator, George Gray, is to go
into the cabinet, and ex-senator and ex-
Secretary Thomas f, Bayard is to re-
sumo his old place in the senate. The
relations Of these two men and their
families and the relations Of both to the
state are the most singular in American
annals. Both families have been noted
in Delaware for over hundred years.
Three Bayards Of three generations sue
cessively represented the state in the ma
tional senate, and Mr.. Gray was taught
to reverence Mr.. Bayard, who is by
twenty years his senior, as soon as he
was old enough to reverence any one.
James Asheton Bayard entered congress
q strong Federalist in 1896. After a
very honorable career in the house and
in diplomacy he succeeded his father-in-
law, Senator Bassett, In the United
States senate in 1904 and remained there
till 1918. His son, Richard H., served
six years in the senate, and another son,
James Asheton, served. from 1851 to
1869, and was succeeded by his son,
Thomas f.
The relations between the two men
were SO warm, even 30 affectionate, that
Mr.. Gray would not be candidate for
the senate till Mr.. Bayard had voluntari-

has, hoVWer, done much ere m
work III ~ solidest kind of literature,
and his Land Law of the Anglo
Saxons" procured him the degree of
Phi. d. at the early age Of twenty-five.
In Connecticut the contest does not
present such marked features as between
the new and the old. General, Govern
GRAND Senator Hawley has had such a long
and brilliant career that young men are
prone to think of him as a grizzled vet
eran, yet he is only sixty-six, in splendid
health, and wouldn't thank anybody for
calling him old. He is inscribed as the
first volunteer in Connecticut for the
war OF the Union, started in a captain
and came out a major general, with a
record not surpassed by any volunteer
officer. He served one term as governor
and three as congressman, was chosen
United States senator in 1881 and 1887,
and is willing to be reelected in 1893.
No man of ordinary nerve would think
of contesting with man of such pres
tige as Senator Hawley, but Governor
Morgan Gardiner Bulkeley has for some

ever he wanted, and just now he wants
the United States senatorship. His father
was long famous as an organizer of life
insurance and was president of the Etna
company from 1850 till his death in 1872.
The son, born Dec. 20, 1888, also became
president of that company soon after his
fathers death became a leading finan-
cier in Hartford and was four times
mayor Of that city. In 1888 he was
candidate for governor and was elected
by the legislature, the people giving no
one majority vote, and as there was
dispute between the candidates in 1890,
which the legislature did not decide, he
held the Office two years longer. There
was no lack of a majority in 1892, how
ever.
When the Democrats finally secured
control of the New York Legislature
early in 1891 and Edward Murphy, Jr.,
Of Troy, gave out that he was a candi-

versus William Wallace Grape, aged
6xty-two. The figures tell the story,
for 1t is In effect the young Republicans
who have grown up since the war against
the old timers.
The latter indeed represents every
thing old and stanch in Massachusetts,
On both sides he had ancestors among
the first pilgrims, and John Russell, one
Of them, bought the ancestral farm
from Captain Miles Standish. Other
pilgrim ancestors were the Cookies,
Slocums and Howlands, but in time o
branch of the family became Quaker by
intermarriage and otherwise, and broke
away from the strict Puritans and into
the New Bedford vicinity.
William Wallace Grape is the seventh
IN descent from Rufus Grape, founder Of
the family in America, and was born in
Dartmouth May 16, 1880, being the only
son in a family Of ten children. His
father, Hon. Henry Rowland Grape,
prospered greatly and invested largely
IN Michigan lands, removing to that
state, Of which he finally became govern
or. The son graduated from Yale and
was admitted to practice law in 1855,
and year later, at the age Of twenty
six, was elected member of the Massa-
chusetts legislature After several years
In law practice and attending to the af-
fairs of his fathers estate Mr.. Grape
was elected to the Forty-fourth con-
gress and reelected three times. He
married a daughter of Mr.. George Tap

During his last term in congress Mr..
Grape was put forward by his friends
for governor. and a majority of the dele
gates chosen were in his favor, when one
Of those puzzling questions arose which

was disapproved by many of the dele

porous that he was soon worth over q

issues to be settled involve almost every
disputable point in the organization Of
legislative bodies-some turning upon
the construction of the United States
constitution, and more upon which the
constitution is not explicit, and which
have heretofore depended upon prec-
edent In five new states the legisla-
lures which are to elect are still in dis
pute, and in five old states, where one
party or the other has decisive major
ity, there are very spirited controversies
as to the men.
In Pennsylvania it appears to be taken
by consent that Matthew Stanley Quay
will succeed himself, although District
Attorney Graham, of Philadelphia, will
probably receive some votes in the
caucus. In New York the standing fac
tons are already at it; in New Jersey
the kindred factions are equally active;
IN Connecticut the new, as usual, is try
ing to shove out the old, and in Massa-
chusets there is "as illigant skrimmage
as ye liver saw, sir" between the young
bloods for Henry Cabot Lodge and the
wartime veterans for William w. Grape.
IL this were all, there would be fun
enough, but in the very article Of its
organization the senate will probably
present situation entirely without prec-
edent In this country.
There are, first, fifty-eight hold over
senator's, twenty-eight Democrats, twen-
ty-eight Republicans and two Populists-
Kyle, Of South Dakota, and PETER, Of
Kansas. Should these two divide on the
TEST vote, the senate would stand twenty
nine to twenty-nine, with the casting
vote in the discretion Of the vice presi-
dent. OF the thirty senators whose
terms Of service expire March 8, 1893,
there are nineteen Republicans and
eleven Democrats. To elect their sue
cessors the Democrats have thirteen leg
slatures certain and the Republicans
twelve, leaving California, Montana,
Kansas, Nebraska and Wyoming, at pres
ent in dispute.
1t goes without saying that the situa-
ton is delicate, and it is but natural that
the dominant party in each Of the sure
states should be thinking earnestly about
getting its best man for the emergency.
Massachusetts presents the most inter
esting contest inside the Republican
party, and the situation there stands:
