A Democratic senator much inquired

He is the link which connects the Dem

the scattering Democratic senators from
the North. Few senators are as active
as Mr.. German. His constituency lives
all around three sides of the District of
Columbia. and his own Maryland resi-

place. He gives a slight suggestion of
Stephen A. Douglas in Douglas later
years. lie belongs to that class of old
Southern splenetlc and brilliant leaders
which died out with 1ancey and
roombs. While he is always alert and
brash, yet Vest does not seem to grow
higher than the country parts of Mis-
souri,. He manages to keep his seat in
the senate. and now and then gets off
fiery speech.
Mir. Voorhees,, of Indiana, by long
tenure IN the senate and original capac-
Ity to express himself with force and
decision, has become rather the new
Thurman of that body. There is a good
deal that is boySh about VOORHEES,. He
also, on his mothers side. was from the
state of Maryland, and on his fathers
side Is New York or New
Jersey state Dutchman of the old
Holland strain. The combination
is rather unusual. VOORHEES, is mer-
curial, sometimes inspires great attach
ment by the sweetness of his nature,
and at other times when he has abused
his diet is rough and dictatorial. On
the whole, however. he is tractable and
good-natured, and many of the Repub-
leans like him, and he has been at diff
ferent times intimate with the Repub-
lican leaders, like Blaine.
Mr.. Villas. in the estimation of the
discriminating few, is the strongest man
intellectually on the Democratic side OF
the senate, but he Is not particularly

one of the collectors of internal revenue
in the old pro-slavery district immedi-
ately adjacent TO Washington. But his
experience was much greater than that
of the city politicians of the un-Conted-
crate element, which he took in hand.
They looked up to him as man of pol
Icy and purpose. German made Pink
ney Whyte and William Hamilton gov
errors OF the state. Hamilton lived at
HagerstOwn, and was a wealthy man,
with strong address upon the stump
and the highest political aspiration. In
the new condition Of things he became
both the United States senator and gov
ernor, as did Finkney Whyte, who was
nephew OF the great William Pink
ney, attorney general of the United
States.
In spite of frequent attempts to IN
dermine him, to face him down, and to
run independent tickets in Baltimore
and elsewhere. German, by judiciouS
use OF his patronage, which is of the
greatest consequence In Maryland,
where salaries and incomes are gener-
ally low, Widened the are of his infiu-
eDce, and finally stepped out as
national politician, going to New York
to direct the campaigns of Tilden and
Cleveland. By 1892 there was move
ment to nominate him for president OF
the United StateS.an the Southern SEN
atorS and most of their constituencies
would have liked to see this thing sue
coed, but in the meantime the Northern
mugwump element had come to be the
controlling critical spirit in the party.
and Cleveland easily prevailed again. 1t
was thought for a time that German had
suffered a check, but through his tact
and good nature and agreeable address,
and certain manliness everything all,
the Maryland senator has become as
large an alm0neF as ever of his pres
ident'S patronage.
AS it is hardly probable that Cleve-
land will be a candidate for another
term, Mr.. German still has prospect of
the Democratic nomination. He is not
man of collegiate education, but his
countenance is very intelligent, his eyes
bright, his intercourse agreeable and
never common, and he takes moderate
view of most public questions, ana is nc
doubt the most capable man Oil the
Democratic side to get order out OF
confusion and to keep up party spirit,
which is sometimes a pretty difficult
thing 10 do in the Democratic party.
CALVIN S. BRICE.
For some time it was thought that
Brice had presidential aspirations. Prob.
ably at the present time German is re.
garded as in advance of Brice in this
respect.
While Brice, by reason of his Ohio
surroundings and his life in New York,
has more worldly apprehension than
German he Is not as much of natural
politician nor quite as presentable in
appearance. He has a real shyness

cordial, and having been long while
at the bar, where he was positive and
aggressive New England man of Yer
mont stock, he rather takes his political
honOrS. since they have come. like the
Puritans of old, and instead of weIcom-
ing intruders he Is apt TO look at them
with challenge. Thus, though he has
been cabinet officer under Mr.. Cleve-
land, and was the most presentable figure
at the convention which first nominated
Cleveland, giving by his port and coun-
tenance the idea of the advent of new
days for the young Democracy, Villas
seems in the present senate to bide his
time, or to be little surfeited with
political life. Probably he finds the
views of his surroundings in the Demo-
cratic pa rty not altogether to his liking.
He is a hard money man, with the East
erD prejudices. Yet l apprehend that
if he could ever find his surroundings
to his intellectual liking he would show
out as the most striking parsonage on
the Democratic side in the senate.
