Mr.. Sulloway was born in the
shadow of the White Noun
talns, in the little town of Grafton,
about fifty years ago. When he was
admitted to HillSborO county bar
early in the '7O's he joined the ranks
of the Republican party: where he
was in high favor for time. Differ
ences Of opinion with the party lead
ers bred ill-feeling, and at the organ
lZatlon of the Greenback party he
kicked over the traces, and for time
shone as a star in that armament. In
1884 he created sensation by indors-
ing the candidacy of the Democratic
nominees, Cleveland and Hendricks,
on the eve of their election.
At that time he appeared at mass
meeting in Manchester, and in an elo-
Quent address defended Cleveland
against personal calumnies, saying
that he had done the same thing him
self. His stay in the Democratic fold
was short one, and he returned two
years later on ,State issues to his first
love, the 6. 0. p. AT once he began
laying wires for his election to Con-
gress, but was defeated twice through
the Vaccinations of Senator Chand-
Ter, who was actively opposed to his
candidacy and election last Novem-
Der. When his frequent political
changes were sarcastically alluded to
in the state Legislature, of which he
was member, he replied: Man is a
rational being and subject to a
change Of mind; a jackass is stub
born animal and never changes. l
am man."
In appearance Sulloway is "a verit-
able giant, standing six and half
feet in his stockings. His hair is of a
length and thickness that would cause
football player to turn green with
envy. His goatee gives him the ap-
| pearance of southerner, and until a
few years ago his fondness for good
whiskey, a handsome woman, and a
quiet game" went far toward
strengthening this likeness.
His reform was brought about by his
| falling in love with and subsequent
marriage to Matte Webster, a Saliva
| tion army leader, whose reputation
extends throughout New England
Mr.. Sulloway has no income save that
derived from his law practice, and it
is his boast that he never yet contri-
buted so much as scent cigar toward
securing nomination or election to
any office.

ANOTHER CONVERT.
The World Moves.

'I'm for free silver, and to raise the
dickens generally" said ex-represen-
tative Frank Wilson, Of Red Wing,
speaking of state politics this morn
ing:
Mr.. Wilson is rabid free coinage
man. He thinks state politics are in
state of utter Generalization, as
among the factions. with the only
clear fact staring all parties in the
face that there is a tremendous battle
to be fought over the money question,
as to the single or the double stand
ard. On this ques tion he is for silver,
for the free and equal coinage Of the
white with the other metal, on fixed
ratio. 1t is an open secret that Mr..
Wilson is pretty near Populst on
this question. 1t is said, also, that
the genial eX-member looks forward
to being a candidate for Congress to
succeed Mr.. Heatwole, and will make
the fight on the free silver question:
1t is also the talk that he may be a
candidate for state attorney general.

Talked OF For President BY the

New York, Feb. 2S-The CONNER

Benjamin Tillman, Of South Carolina
Gov. Evans, and D. B. Johnson, presi-
dent of the Rock Hill normal and in
dustrial school. of the same state,
were here to-day. incidentally Presi-
dent johnson stated that Mr.. Tillman
was receiving hundreds Of letters urg-
ing him to run for the presidency in
1896.
"On the Democratic ticket?" he
was asked
ooh no." said Mr.. Johnson; "a new
party is inevitable, and it has been
built on the ruins of the two domi-
nant parties. Thousands are looking
to Senator Tillman to head the ticket
in 1896. He is the coming man in nv
judgment. II you could only see the
letters pouring into him daily you
would know how strong he is through
out the country"
The senator talked freely, but not
on the subj ect of his candidacy.

THE SUBSIDIZED PRESS.
Their Leading Editorials Come to

From Wall Street,

The Philadelphia Evening Item
gives publicity to news item which
goes far, very far. toward establishing
the authenticity of the Buell. circular.
Says the Item:
"Mr. Jay Cooke, in a recent inter
view, gave a bit of history which has
an important bearing upon the pres
ent attitude of the goldite press in
explanation of it's remarkable jump
ing-jack quality and it's general and
immediate unanimity when somebody
pulls the string. Just previous to the
passage of the national banking law,
Secretary Chase explained to Mr..
Cooke that he desired the latter's as
sistance to pass the bill, as there were
at that time only eight congressman
to be relied upon for the purpose. Mr..
Cooks banking house was then ad-
vertising government loans freely all
