Southern Leaders in the Senate.
The recent deaths of Senator
George of Mississippi and Senator
‘Harris of Tennessee have directed
attention anew to the; changes
Which are taking plaice among the
Southern leaders in- that body.
The older men are passing away,
and newer men, less well-known,
and representing in some instances
widely different views of public
taking their places.
HOW HE WAS TAMED.
One of the most influential
office holders in Washington un
der the present administration
was formerly a resident of this
city, ana his influence is much
sought after by office seekers in
and near Philadelphia, says the
the Philadelphia Call. One of his
acquaintances in a nearby county
seat was after a government job.
The "Washingtonian met the man
in Philadelphia some years past,
and several months ago had prom
ised that if anything “turned up”
he would write at once. The
weeks passed by without any ap
parent “turning up,” and finally
the Pennsylvania man wrote to
the Washingtonian a* follows:

A Pleasant Talk About a Bright
Little Squirrel.
Cured, by Lydia E. Pinkham’i
Vegetable Compound.
A contributor to Our Animal
Friends talks very entertainingly
in the October number about a
gray squirrel that she had tamed,
and that without shutting it up
in a cage. She says, among other
things:
“Whenever I sat down on the
piazza steps with a handful of
nuts in my lap, my little gray
friend was sure to appear. One
day I saw him hotly pursued by
another squirrel, which was evi
dently much enraged. They
darted from tree to tree and from
branch to branch, until my Crack
er eaw me, when he instantly
made a wild leap in my direction
sat down close beside me on the
steps and hurled vituperation at
his foe.' The latter dared not
come near, and presently slunk
away, leaving my pet victor.
“As his fear wore away, Cracker
began to show himself a veritable
Oliver Twist; but he was never
satisfied with the number of nuts I
brought, and when I showed him
my empty hands to convince him
that I had no- more, he would
jump up on the step above me and
claw at my sleeves, evidently
thinking that bushels of nuts
might be concealed in their folds.
“One afternoon a friend at
tempted to take a photograph of
Cracker sitting on my knee, but
that gentleman was so much in
terested in the camera that for
some time I could not not induce
him to look at me. He examined
the camera closely on all sides,
took the c >rd which held the cover
in Iris little black paws, and
showed a disposition to sit on top
of the case.
“I coaxed him to come to me,
but when the shutter of the cam
era closed with a little click, he
whisked up a tree and chattered
angrily at us, as if. scolding us for
a breach of faith.”

Kauffman St., Philadelphia, Pa.

and 1 suffered with terrible backache
in the small of my back, and could
hardly stand upright. I had no ap

policy, are
The Southern states followed a
natural impulse, when, coming
back to full representation in Con
gress after the Civil War, they se
lected men who had been active
leaders during that period. They
showed also their appreciation of-
the value of ripe and experienced
service by reelecting to both houses
of Congress the leaders in whom
they reposed confidence.
Only eight years ago, when the
fifty-first congress opened, twenty-
two of the twenty-eight Senators
from fourteen Southern states
were ipen who had served in the
Confederate army. Of the other
six, one had been a member df the
Confederate Congresp, and one had
been governor of a Southern state
during the war; so that there were
only four in the whole number
who had not been in either the
civil or the military service of the
confederacy.
Of the twenty-eight Southern
leaders in the Senate of the fifty-
first congress, only ten now re
main. These are Senators Morgan
of Alabama, Jones and Berry of
Arkansas, Pasco of Florida, Wal
thall of Mississippi, Bate of Ten
nessee, Daniel of Virginia, find
Faulkner of West Virginia. v
Of the other eighteen, just one-
half are dead and one-half have
retired. - In the former^ group are
numbered Senators Brown of
Georgia, and Harris of Tennessee,
who were governors of their re
spective states during the civil
war; and, Senators Colquitt^ of
Georgia, Gibson of Louisiana,
George of Mississippi, Coke of
Texas, and Kenna of West Vir
ginia, all of whom were in the
Confederate army.
The Senators who have been re
tired through the vicissitudes of
politics or other causes include
Pugh of Alabama, Call of Florida,
Blackburn of Kentucky, Eustis of
Louisiana, Vance and Ransom of
North Carolina, and Reagan of
Texas: Of these, all but Senators
Call and Reagan were in the mili
tary service of the confederacy;
and Mr. Reagan was the Confed
erate postmaster-general.
Altogether, this is a long and
impressive list of Southern leaders
whose disappearance from the
Senate, whether by death or re
tirement, marks, to some extent
at least, a change in the character
and tendencies of that body.
