owes his political prominence. When Grover
Cleveland was first elected governor OF the
state of New York Mr.. Taylor was then
Georgia lawyer and one of the first colored
men OF his region to turn to the democratic
party.
Acting under a sort of inspiration, Mr.
Taylor is said to have written to Mr.. Cleve-
land letter of praise. asserting that in his
belief Mr. Cleveland was "a man of des-
tiny" He pointed out that Mr.. Cleveland
must ultimately become the democratic
nominee for President, and TO this proph-
ecy, 1t is said. he now owes the considera-
ton paid him by the President. He was re-
warded during Mr.. Cleveland's first term
for his soothsaying propensities by the post
OF minister to Liberia, and, of course, he
was not TO be turned aside during the sec
ond reign, for prophets are few and far be-
tween.
Senator Martins Recommendations
An interesting story is told in connection
with this nomination. 1t is said that Sen
ator Martin OF Kansas Is Mr.. Taylor's chief
political hacker. OF course, Mr.. Taylor has
claim on the Presidents own allegiance
as has just been pointed out. But there
must be sort Of political sponsor for ev-
cry office-seeker.
In Mr. Taylor's case. of course he is
rather the sought than the seeker, but that
is mere matter of terms. Senator Martin
at all events has undertaken to be a god
rather OF the political fortunes of this in
teresting child, and it is related that he
went to the President early in the first
year OF the administration and told Mr.
Cleveland that he would back Charles H
J. Taylor of Kansas for any place in the
Presidents gift. But there was a string
tied to this very sweeping Endorsement
Mr Martin added that he would back Mr.
Taylor for any place the President might
nave at his disposal, outside of Kansas
or course this limited Mr.. Taylor's sphere
OF usefulness considerably, and deprived
Kansas, perhaps of an interesting specta-
Gle; nevertheless such was the condition Of
me hdorsement. and IL would seem that
the condition had been scrupuIouslv Oh
served, for the District of Columbia is very
far outside of Kansas '

DEMOCRATS DUMFOUNDED,
No Such Political Revolution Known
in Rhode Island.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
PROVIDENCE. r. l., April 5.-Rhode Is
land has experienced the greatest political
Cpheaval in it's history. Yesterdays state
election was a veritable landslide and the
democrats are simply buried. Gov. D. Rus
sell Brown is re elected by a plurality that
promises 10 reach 8 900.
The Legislature is almost entirely republi-
can, and the election of ex-Gov. Geo. Pea
body Wetmore to the United States Senate
to succeed Senator Dixon is as certain as
anything II the world can be. The demo-
Gratis have only six members of the legis-
lature. three in each branch. Last year
they secured forty-one members Of the
house and fourteen in the senate, and gave
Baker, then, as now. their candidate for
governor. a plurality of 200. That didn't
elect him, because last year a majority was
required.
Democrats have been looking forward for
years to the day when a purality should
elect, and this, the first election under the
new law shows that politics is mighty I'M
certain" Baker himself. an exceedingly
able and popular man, counted a plurality
this year OF 1,5OO.

becomes more surprising. DR.. L. F. &. Gar

Col. Saml. r. Honey of Newport, the

The town of Gloucester, which has never
before been wrested from the control of
the democrats, went over to the republicans
bag and baggage.
Ttverton, the democratic stronghold, not
only succumbed to the republicans on state
and legislative issues, but chose a republi-
can town council.
The republicans in jamestown elected
