WASHINGTON, Sept 25, 1915.
Movements ON the Political Chess -Board-Ihs Plot


Thicksning ersry day.


Nolhing that has appeared tor many day in the
ioim oi cheap pamphlet has excited more curl
osity among our politicians, christians and philoso-
piers, than Lying Mackenzie's Gas the boys call
him tor shorp Jesse Hoyt correspondence 1t is
all the 60 II is certainly compilation Of rich rare,
and racy materials. John Van Buren, is an unmiti-
gated Philistne, genuine Goliah of Gath BF
Butler turns out indescribable pulling Pharisee.
The fact Isl the whole affair is perfect god d-send
amid this prolonged stagnation at head quarters.


The non-recepton OF Mr.. Kaufman, as Charge
from Texas, may work derimentally TO the admins
traton, II the decision against Mr.. is persevered
in. The loss of the confidence of Texas at this
crisis, when the political position and complexion Of
that, people an integral part OF The people OF the
Union are just being formed, may result IN revo-
luton which will convert the whole OF Texas into
Wing district With half the dexterlty OF manage
ment peculiar to their opponents, the Wings might
now employ their exertlois to profit In shaping
the public opinion of Texas


Marcus Morton you W Ill perceive, is mired among
troubles OF his own creating Mr. Hazewel, present
editor OF the Ohio Statesman, while an editor IN
New England had no particularly strong faith IN Mar
Gus, and Marcus watched him like lynx Haze
well buys out Col Medary, and the Cincinnati En-
qutrer, rival paper Tor the control of the party of
the State, cries out Wooster Bank-Hazewel
had no money-it was the Wooster Bank" Suspi-
cIon is excited against the Statesman that he is in
colusion with the Bank-T -Tyler-Shannon Con-
servative clique Of Ohio, and Judge Tappan
writes letter to Marcus to know all about it.
This better than oysters to Marcus.
How his fingers tinge with the fun OF the re-
venge he is going to have on poor Hazewell. He
writes to Judge Tappan, asserting roundly that
Hazewell is not 10 be trusted out OF sight-,hat ne
is not worth fifteen cents-hat he broke down two
papers in New England by connecting himself with
them; and that he could not get trusted, where he
was known, for the small sum of 500. Hazewell,
upon this authority, has sued old Marcus tor libel,
hunkers OF the party, such as Marcus, are being
backed up against the wall, IN every direction
We have spoken frequently OF OSullvan's move
ment here in behalf OF the National Bronze Eques-
tran Statue to Gen. Jackson. twas an old bunker
movement, cut and dried and it is pity, great
pity that O'Sulvan did net succeed as he had wish
ed. True, he got meeting together-hurrled his
own resolutions through before time was gwen to
the meeting to understand the case-got committee
appolnted-got them together in the General Post
/ Office, but there the gentleman from New York was
/ fairly bluffed oil. He proposed an address to the
people-he proposed plan OF operations tor the
committee and had every reason to be leve, from
the passive resignation OF the meeting at Apollo
Hall, that he had only to speak to be obeyed. But
| Gen. Van Ness (can't you account for the milk i'll
the nutO brother OF the late Collector lectur
ed Mr.. O'Sulivan square up Tor his interference IN
the business OF the committee-sald that the com
mittee could act for itself-that the people OF Wash
ington not all fools-that the services OF Mr..
O'Suvan could be dispensed with-that he might
leave his papers tor their consideration, II he chose
10 do so; but that his dictation was Oat OF place,
particularly as he did not belong TO the committee -
| Mr. O'Sulhvan bore this reprlmand as much like
philosopher could have been expected Mr.. Cave
Johnson tried to smooth the matter over, but 1t was
no go; and the editor of the Morning News deposl-
ting his papers with the committee, withdrew. Ills
mission has tailed; for his address has been epuda-
ted by the committee, his plan OF operations sc I
aside, and another address and another plan adopt
ed In place.


After devoting couple of weeks in Washington
to this buslness after paying for the Apollo Hall,
and the lights; after making such fine start In the
| first meeting, IN getting his ''cut and dried" pro-
ceedings carried through, thus TO be bluffed on,
and sent back 10 Gotham, 1t was hard, very hard.
| Time, We afraid, will explode this statue


And like the baseless fabric of vision,
Leave not the horse behnd.'


Report says that Mr. Gillet, Register OF the Trea-
sury is soon to take the place OF MIR. Met ulough,
First Comptroler-that he Is TO be appointed
Judge in the place of Judge Thurston, deceased |;
and that Major Barker of the Comptroer's office,
is 10 be promoted TO the Registers desk.


A Mr. Gilpin, from Oregon, we hear, is In town.
We shall try and see hlm, and learn something OF
that part OF the Union, that win be interesting to
the public.


The great effort upon the subject of the House
printing session will be effort to override,
overrue, and supercede the action OF a caucus.
Blair and Rlves will not put themselves forward,
but their friends Will take them ur-the New fork-
ers and the Western men; and unless iather Rchie
gets vote OF twothlrds caucus, the election un-
settled, will come up at once before the House. II ls
SAID there fifty democratic members ascerained
to be i'll favor OF Blair and Rlves. Whether they
will finally make diversion for the Constitution or
the u. s Journal remains TO be seen. The Journal
Will probably stand best before the House In oppos-
tion to the organ, the Constitution IN the Senate


The next session OF Congress will be by tar the
most interesting TO the dominant party-the most
CRITICAL and the most important since the famous eX-
ira session of IL. Should not much wonder If 1t
were to be equally suicidal in Its results
