Darkness to Civilized

From Chinese Darkness to Civilized
Davenportism
There have been rumors that Thomas
G. Platt had a convetous eye upon the
iron cage With the trained eye of a
Toga ring-master, he recognized at once
how valuable an addition 10 would be to
the proprietor of circus, and the break
ing away of some of his best performers
is pointed out as an indication that he
needs cage very badly.
1t is possible that the iron cage may be
offered TO the highest bidder at auction.
Any one in need of a cage strong enough
to hold a pack of bowling hyenats would
do well to wait until the iron cage is dis
posed of before purchasing elsewhere. AS
old junk, the iron cage isn't worth much,
in the present state of the market
The memory of the IRON cage and John
l. Davenport is insparably linked. No
other city has ever had the disgrace of an
iron pen into which, on federal election
days, law-abiding democrats could be
thrust while in the performance of their
legal right TO vote at the nod Of Daven-
port.
Shortly after John l. Davenport, was
appointed special supervisor of elections,
he secured Offices in the federal or post
Office building. After having gained ex-
perience in several federal elections, he
had constructed on the fourth floor the
iron cage At the next election, his dep
uty supervisors, most of whom were gath
cred from the slums. were stationed at
the polls, with special instructions from
John l. Davenport. Before voting had
progressed two hours, the special super
visOrs, ragged, dirty and unkempt, came
from all directions, to the postofiice build
ing, bringing with them democrats whom
they charged with illegally attempting to
vote.
Many Of the prisoners were reputable
business men. Others were laborers.
Regardless of their standing, however.
they were all thrust into the iron cage
and kept there until after o'clock, the
hour of closing the polls. Then most of
the prisoners were released without ex-
PLANTATION. A few were held for examina-
ton, and subsequently, discharged.
The outrage caused great indignation,
yet year after year, in federal elections,
the same occurrences took place. In the
last presidential election, in 1892, tho cage
was prepared, but on account of public
sentiment John l. Davenport evidently
feared to use il.
From his position as special supervisor
of elections and keeper Of the iron cage,
John |. Davenport has drawn many thou
sands of dollars, hundreds of thousands,
in fact although he did only few days
work each year. A great deal of the
money went into his own pocket. At an
investigation of Davenport. held last year,
it was shown that he collected fees for
half dozen services involving the arrest
and commitment of single prisoner
Notwithstanding the immense sums of
money paid to him in the past twenty
years, he is said 10 be far from wealthy
to-day. He has squandered large sums,
it is said, IN ways which neither half of
the world knows anything about.

Provincetown, Feb l3-At daybreak this
morning large three-m asted schooner came
ashore near the station. The seas made
clean breach over her, the spray dashing up
nearly as high as her mastheads. One heavy
sea struck the vessel on the quarter and
brought her head OF shore and the vessel
went clear of the land. Nobody was seen on
board OF her and II Is supposed that the crew
were washed overheard. Il is still blowing
heavy gale. and with the present direction Of
the wind the vessel will probably go ashore
somewhere near the Gurnot.
