Atlanta. Nov. 24 —Hon Hoka Smith, Stc

Cleveland’s second term, said to-day, in
reference to Mr. Bryan a expressed Inten

Chicago platform:
“I regret that Col. Bryan deems It prop

principles of the Chicago platform.'
"Ho has rwlce received as the nominee
of the Democratic party the loyal support
of tha Demo*-rats of the South. Thu last
time he met with no opposition In the
South, even for the nomination.
"I disapproved the suggested reorgan
ization for the |rty by certain persons
in tha East, and I think Col. Bryan is
making a mistake equal to that which
would have resulted from any serious
movement toward Eastern reorganization
"The Democratic party should rtand be
tween the plutocrat and the socialist ,*
lbs party of the constitution and of the
people. It should defend the rights of

"The party must regain the confidence
of the majority of the voters in New
York. Connecticut, New Jersey, Maryland,

them that Its policies will be w-.ee and
conservative, protecting not only personal
rights, but also property rights.

Imagine that but for his efforts on the
hustings, the Bryanltes would now be cel
ebrating their victory st the toils a f-w
days ago He bounds nimbly up the stair,
way, confident that Ms s rap book Is suf
ficient credentials to give him the right
of way Into the President's private office.
Hie progress, however, 1 blocked by
Cob Loeffier. ihe veteran door-keeper at
the cabinet room, who politely Informe the
enthusiastic spellbinder end expectant
office-seeker that the President Is en
gaged with * member of the cabinet <r
some prominent senator or representative
and will not be able to receive unofficial
visitors until next day.
Discouraged, but not entirely dteheart
ened the chronic office seeker lingers
around the an'e-room fur an hour or two,
regaling any one who will give him hear
ing with his personal achievements on the
stump In behalf of the Grand Old Party.
This programme he rspeals day after dav
without being abb to obtain a personal
Interview v-lth the Prerldent and he fin
ally compromises by leaving hla scrap
book and a lengthy .personal appeal for
recognition with Private Secretary Cortel
you who promises to lay the document
before the President at some convenient
period.
The Chronic Office Seekers.
The patient endurance displayed by the
Chronic om . seek' r Is almost without
limit and their energies mlghl be expended
more profitably In some other direction.
Sometime* their political enthusiasm lan
guishes after daya and weeks of unsuc
cessful attempu to reach Ihe Presidential
ear and they burst forth In a tirade
against the Ingratitude and lack of ap
preciation ott the part of the administra
tion which they claim owes i:s tuceesa to
their personal axertlooa and Influence.
The veterans, who are familiar with
the routine at the White House, occa
sionally manage to declare themselves In
with a visiting delegation, or at a public
reception by the President In the East
Room, and thus they hav* the personal
satisfaction of. at lsaat. shaking tha pros- j
ldontl.il hand snd hurriedly remarking |
while being pususd through tha Una. "Mr.

President. I would like to have n few
words with you in confidence at vour e.tr

erally Ignores these invitations by turn
ing to greet the next visitor. Exceptions
are sometime* nts'le by the President In
behalf of persons whom he know* to lie
worthy of considers i lon. provided they
are properly vouched for by a senator or
representative, or someone who enjoys
the confidence of the chief executive.
Still Another t lass.
There Is another class of caller* al the
Whit* House, who Imagine that the Pres
ident alone is interested in redressing the! ,
real or fancied grievances This class |s
composed largely of woman, who eek
government employment for themselves
or their relatives. Some of them are etth
er widows, wives, sisters, daughters, or
personal friends of men to whom the Re
publican party, either In the past or pres
ent. Is alleged to be personally indebted.
It requires constderalde tact and delicate
manipulation on the pert of
the White House employes to
shield the President from the embarrass
ment. and Inconvenience of being obliged
to listen to the heartrending details of
why this woman should be provided for
by the government, or why she shoukl
not receive e promotion, or why some
member of her family should not prompt
ly partake of the fruit of Republican vic
tory. Of course some of these appeals are
sufficiently strong and meritorious ae to
Justify serious consideration, and them
are other methods of securing due recog
nition without a personal Interview with
the Preeldent.
Thu* far the office-seekers have been
able to derive but little encouragement
from their visitations lo the Whits House
They sre Informed that thera It but lit
tle or no patronage outelde of the civil
eervlce at the disposal of ihe President,
and In view of the overwhelming approval
by tha country of the present organisation
of ihe administration, but few change*

These etaiemeot* might discontent and
discourage the inexperienced offleeseektr.
but ihe chronic applicants for political
preferment continue to knock boldly and
continuously at the presidential door.
With the coming of Congress the arm/
Is Increased and the President and me
members of his official family might a*
well prepare for o persistent assault all
aiong ihe Una during the prsaen: session
of Congress.

Another Impreetive indication that the
national legislature Is about to resume
business at the oil stand Is the sudden
and mysterious appearance In Washing
ton of many well-known characters who
apparently have no visible meins of tup
liort. Y*sr after year these people drift
Into Washington with ih opening of
Congress and remain hare until the ses
sion closes The cspliol se. m> to have a
peculiar fascination for them and how
they manage to ek* out an existence Is
one of the unexplained mysteries of thl*
generation. They cannot ba classed ss
lobbyists for they possess neither politi
cal rot personal Influence with the law
maker* Borne of them profess to have
meritorious claims against the government
of long eiaiidlng Others seem lo Imagine
that their presence In Washington Is
necessary In order (hat the wheel of legis
lation may run smoothly. Their faces are
as familiar to the veteran congressman
end public official as the portrait of
George Washington on a two-eent postage
•tamp. They haunt the executive depart
ments and blockade the corridors of the
capllol May after day and at the close of
the seseton. their personal Interests do
not seem to have been materially ad
vanced. a* a rule they are a shabby gen
teel lot and where they come from or
where they go to after Congreea adjourns
no one seems to know or care. Neverthe
less they bob up serenely again the fol
lowing year snd pursue their mysterious
calling with such physical energy as their
precarious existence will Justify
Something Dolan In the Lobby.

Hussell Harrison's Retirement.
From Indiana comes the interesting
story that Mr. Horry New who has re
cently become quite conspicuous In “Hoo
slsr" politics Is, in a measure, responsi
ble for the sudden and unexpected retire -
mcnl of MaJ Russell H.irrtson from the
army, A personal friend of MaJ. Harrtaon
now In Washington Is responslbla for tbs
statement that It was largely dua to Har
ry New's Influence st the War Depart
ment that MaJ. Harrison received an hon
orable discharge from tha voluntoor ear
vice a few days ago on the ground that
his duties were no longer neoessary. Not -
withstanding the supposed friendliness be
tween forroar President Harrison and for
mer Secretory of the Treasury John C.
New, there appears to bes personal feud
between the eons of these two distin
guished "Hooaler” families. The troubla
arose during th* early stages of 4ha >ptn
Ish war. Russell Harrison was appointed
an assistant inspector general In the vol
unteer service. Harry New also received
a commission In the volunteer service ml
about the same time. The two young ot
fleera from Indians were assumed to duty
for a time In tha same division, and they
frequently met each other both off and
on duty. It appears that Hussell Harrlaoo
Is. in the estimation of some of Ms best
and warmest personal friend*. Inclined to
lie whst they urn ' fussy." That Is. be
1* disposed to place greater value on minor
technicalities than circumstances some
times Justify. Upon entering tho mlWary
service he assayed to become a etrtet mil
itary dlscgillnarlan. and It ta aald
he sometimes carried hla ambition#
In that direction to oxtreme.
New Failed to Salat*.
On several occasions he met fci* former
friend. Harry New. off duly. Ae la well
known, the army regulations do not re
quire officers to wear their military uni
forms. Being somewhat of * novlcfc m
military athlcs when these two young offi
cer* met in civilian attire. Ilsrry Now
forgot IO greet MaJ Harrison with a for
mat military salute, simply giving him
an Informal salutation, such a* l* gen
erally exchanged heiween friend* and
companions Being Uta ranking officer, II
seem* that Itusaell Harrison administered
• mild rebuke to C*pt New for disregard
ing the military salute. On several other
occasion*, while they were on duty to
gether. MaJ IlsrrlfOO took occasion to
chide Mr New for certain rather Insig
nificant offense* against military regula
tion*. such as carelessneea In attire and
neg,e-ting to properly extend and return
military salute* In other words. It la
claimed that MaJ. Harrison harrassad Mr.
New beyond endurance by continual
"nagging" about Insignificant trifles along
th* line of military proeoodure. Finally
Mr New resented what he termed undue
offlcloutnes* and an open rupture ensued
between the two young officers. Later on
Harry New obtained an honorable dis
charge from the army, returned home and
In Ihe recant campaign became quit# an
Important factor In Indiana politic*. H
seems that hla resentment toward* MaJ.
Harrison Is still undimlftlshed. and It la
asserted that when th* question of reliev
ing Me), llsrrlfon from further military
service aroee, Mr. New, through personal
friends, assisted to a considerable extent
In Irapreealnff the authorities at Wash
ington that MaJ. Harrison's service* might
be dispensed with althouj material in
jury to tbo army.
