letters came asking him TO use his
influence with the president to obtain
this or that favor He always 6eclln-

In Europe-when he learned that

Frankfort. was about to be displaced,
Clemens, of his own accord. wrote to
baby Ruth Cleveland about it:
My Dear Ruth: / belong to the
Mugwumps, and one of the most sa-
cred rules in our order prevents us

by your father in turning out of Of

Miss Ruth take the matter into her
own hands. Then he said:

president, but the next time you have
a talk with him concerning such mat

Capt. Mason and what / think of
government that so treats its efficient
officials.
Just what form Of appeal the small
agent made is not recorded. but by
and by Mark Twain received a tiny
envelope postmarked Washington. in
closing this note in President Cleve-
lands handwriting:

for her information, and to say that

dent also desires Miss Cleveland to
say that If Mr.. Twain knows of any
other cases of this kind he will be
greatly obliged If he will write him
concerning them at his earliest con-
venience."
