HANNA AND HIS
VISITORS.

Cleveland, O.. Feb. O.
There were many prominent
visitors at the office of Chair
man NJ. A. Hanna to-day
Among those who conferred
with Mr.. Hanna were Hon.
Benjamin Butterworth of Gin
cinnati, Judge c. A. Thompson
of Portsmouth, o., Bishop Ar
mott of the African Methodist
Episcopal church, Judge Dud
ley OF California, MIR. Joseph
S. Spear, a prominent republi-
can of California, who yester-
day went with the national
chairman to Canton to visit
President-elect Mckinley, and
many others.
Mr.. Spear said he expected
to remain in Cleveland until
Monday. when he would again
go to Canton to visit Major
Mckinley, whom he has an
appointment.
Mr.. Hanna today again de
clined to discuss his visit to
Canton yesterday, stating that
there was nothing he could say
for publication. Now it seems
pretty certain that Mr.. Hanna
will not be appointed to fill the
place to be made vacant by
Senator Sherman in the Unit
ed States senate, there is much
speculation as to whether or
not he will enter the cabinet
as postmaster general. 1t is
generally believed by those
who should know that this has
been discussed and finally set
tied, and there seems to be
but little doubt that the chair
man will be a member of Mai
or McKinley's official house

EX CHAIRMAN GRANT.
Office Seekers Give Him No
Rest.-Overburned with
Petitions.

guration draws nearer the
horde OF office seekers who
have beseiged DR.. John Grant
in this city ever since the Can
ton mans election grows larger
and more importunate. From
all over this big State and from
every Nation in the Indian Ter
ritory they come with their pc
titions, their recommendations
and their memorials, their
claims, peculiar and superior,
for the Federal offices at the
disposal of the National conf
nitteeman.
DR.. John Grant has had no
peace from these office seekers,
day or night, during the past
three months. They come sing
ly, in couples and in squads
of three and four and five.
They are very much in earnest
and they do not fail to impress
DR.. Grant with their earnest
ness. They want all kinds of
Offices, from a little bit of a
postoffice to the very highest
Federal gift in the State.
Some of them camp with DIR.
Grant two or three days. Some
of them have made as many as
half a dozen visits to him since
the election.
DR.. John Grant has had to
steal away from his Office and
out of town to get away from
these office seekers and attend
to other pressing business. AS
for the memorials and petitions
of his supplicants, he has a
barn full of them and he will
not forget them, nor will the
National committeeman's in
dorsement for a single office
be given recklessly or without
due deliberation.
DR.. Grant will leave Sher
man for Washington on the
18th of the month. He will go
by Cleveland and Canton and
hurry on to the Capital City to
attend to his duties as a mem
Der of the reception committee
to oficiate at Major Mckinley S
Inauguration. There he will
be joined later by the three
members of the general staff
in charge of the Inauguration
from Texas. These three men
DR.. John Grant was given the
privilege of appointing, and
they are, naturally, Grant mel
tooth and toe nail. DIR. Grant
is like Wright Quincy only diff
ferent. Quincy. it is said, nev
er forgets an enemy. DR..
Grant, it is evident, never for
gets a friend. He appointed
Cecil A. Lyon of Sherman, P.
!. Pierce of Paris and w. J..
WATSON of Dublin staff officers.
They will leave Texas for
Washington a couple of weeks
after the committeeman from
Texas.
