Senator Hili's motives.

Senator Hill, it il entirely safe to say
never does anything from motives of psiri-
otism When he -.s so ardently advocat-
ing the Reed rul.s tor the United States
Senate, he undoubtedly had in mind the
Tucker repeal bill, and the removal of all
possibility of obstruction from its way in
the United States Senate. Federal SUI
pprvision of the ballot box has
long stool in the way of Tammsny
knavery in New York state, and it is not
.urpri.ing that Mr.. Hill, representing that
organization should be anxious to see these
laws repealed. That once accomplished
the political sway Of Tsmmany in the EN-
pire state would be well nigh omnip-
otent. Fraud could run riot, with
practically no way to check IT,
especially if the judiciary of the state
shall become corrupted by the elevation
Of such men as Isaac II. Maynard to its
membership
There was probably smother motive that
inspired Hill in his advocacy of cloture in
the Senate. He has long desired to patch
up A truce with the President in order that
he might secure soms little recogf tion in
the distribution of Federal p'tron-
age. The lack of spoils To hang
about the necks of hi, faithful hen hmen
has been a great source of weakness to him.
IL. doubtless, seemed to him. that a certain
amount of activity in chsmpioniog the
measure so dear to the Presidents heart
might win him much needed recog ition at
the WnIrE Horst. Hence his activity IN
the repeal cause and the suggestion con-
viewed to the President that Barkis
was willing to be reeoncil,d. For n time
there tiosted about in the public press vague
rumors that the President and Senator Hill
we're about to perform the Damon and
p, th,as act; but it is now evident that these
report. were premature. The Pres Is
built upon the Damum rather than the Dam
on plan, and is not accustomed to fall upon
snvopes neck in burst of penitential
tears. Not only has the predicted recon
Citation failed to msterialize, but We have
it upon 50 excellent authority as the Wash
iugton Post. whose chances of observation
are ample, that Notwithstanding recent
events, senator Hill gets it in the neck
every time he shows up in the vicinity of
the pie counter"
II is evident that, so far as the President
is concerned. his vigorous work in the
Senate has melted him nothing in the way OF
results. It has certainly aliensted what
little Southern follosiog he may
hav. had. while it is now reported to have
been conducted in = manner not altogether
pleasing TO Boss Croker of Tammany
Hall. Thu. while the crafty German looms

4 Live naias Editor 10 Tell Mis- Experiences

Editors Of the ReHnebec Journal:
Fearing that you nay not hear of it in
any other way, hasten to inform you that
am at length 4 candidate for the lecture
platform.
One beautiful October day | was sitting
at my Newspaper desk. writing up some
kind words for our town merchants under
the guise Of local news, when q noble look
ing gentleman came in and stood watching
me for a few moments in silence. Then he
said:
ssh, I have been observing your thought
full brow and other personal characteristics
for some time, and let me suggest that you
are an individual who is needed in the
boundless West. In the West they require
men like you in the banking business, and
there 10 fortune within your grasp If you
can only find time to sell out this printing
Office and grasp it.
Shortly afterwards threw up my COM
mission as justice of the peace and quorum,
and adjourned to the Occident
At first there was report that | was &C.
cumulatiDg the entire wealth Of the West,
followed shortly aftarward by smother re-
port louder than the first. and more hollow
in its character. A few nights later, under
friendly cover of darkness, | walked slowly
into town, carrying in my hand valise
flied with large assortment of Experience,
and the next morning I resumed business
at the old stan1.
have now got up lecture which | call,
banking in Kansas; How Found 1t, aud
How 1t Left Me" II is a lecture that no
thoughtful man or woman can afford to go
on much longer without hearing it contains
great deal of information, with here and
there some bon-mots that have occurred to
me rs was getting it up. have said over
one or two Of these bon-mots TO my father,
and he has laughed real hard He said after
wiping his eyes that was comical fellow.
NY father can trace his descent from the Pur-
itans who came over IN the Msyfower, and
he ought to know what joke is if anybody
does. Ny wife, who has heard me practic-
ing on it, and seen me trying some of the
gestures in front of a glass-a looking glass
says it is nice and if people don't come
to hear this lecture and then 60 away and
laugh at il, that's all she wants to know
about them.
People all over the state ought to hear ne,
[ think. BY means of this lecture, churches
and all kinds of folks can be got out of debt.
All it needs is to engage me for certain
,iate, sell large number of tickets at fixed
price. and wait with impotence for the time
TO weartaway. On the appointed evening
will appear, and after talking to the people
for awhile in my way, they will go to their
homes gladly, and the management will
pocket what is left
This is why have at length decided to
Weld to the popular clamor, at so much per
clamor, and appear, in q swallow-appen-
daged coat with broad expsnse of ironed
shirt front dazzling the eyes of the people
IN front of me. W. o. FULLER, Jr.
