Florida Congressman Springs 6Wash.
tngton Sample on His Constituents.
Tia following story is told by the
Washington Times on one of the Florida
congressman:
The gentleman in question was called
On the other day at his hotel by dele
CATION of about 20 citizens from his dis
tirct, who had come to advocate the
claims Of o certain candidate for post
master, who, it was generally under
stood, was to get the place, bat whose
nomination failed TO be recorded among
the elect on the yellow tissue paper.
The delegation all knew the congress
man pretty well, and so they went up
TO the congressman's room in body,
where they found him shaving, and
fled in one by one.
The Florida statesman was rather
dismayed by the delegation and didn't
know just what to do with them, but
after pause he blurted out rather
sharply:
Look here! Of course You know 1
don't mind it q bit, but man can't
act MP here at Washington the way he
would down in Florida. They have a
thing they call etiquette up here. and
it's TIE proper thing to send up your
card before YOU come to a gentleman's
room.
"All right" said the leader, who
| took the matter more seriously than
was intended. wen so down stairs
| and send up our cards"
Before the congressman could recover
from his surprise the whole delegation
filed out Of tho room without another
word. and few minutes later a porter
brought up batch Of cards.
The congressman reflected moment
I Tell them / m out, was his answer.
The delegation has not been heard OF
since. but 1t IS rumored that they have
purchased books On etiquette Ito learn

ties declare that Claggett is making
the most brilliant, popular. prudent
and elective campaign ever made
in Illinois by any candidate for state
treasurer. He makes n favorable i'm
preston wherever he goes, to such an
extent, in fact, that the republican
managers in the localities where
Claggett has been have sent an ur-
gent demand TO Chairman Tanner to
'send Henry Wulff out into the
country precincts, unless there are
reasons to believe his appearance and
conduct would he harmful To him self
and the cause. Unless he comes cut
and makes n favorable impression,
