Flsk of Now Jersey somo glimmering of that political reason lie has conspicuously lackod for yearn. He lias discovered that the way to make jnogicss towaul temperance is not to ho Intemperate nnd nu oxtrcmlst. Ho has not abandoned his prohibition belief every man has a right to his opinion lmt lie wcmlngly rccognlcs the. fact that In New Jersey prohibition cannot win and that if tho extremists expect to accomplish nny good at all they must assist the Republicans. In reply to a note rent him by n friend, nsklng him to define his inesent attitude, General rik Rays- Your favor ot the OTth ult., with Inclosure, waited my return from a brief absence Tlio clipping you tent tne Is misleading. It Is truo that Hii far as New Jersey Is concerned there Mie many who will combine with all tho good temperance people of tho Stato to ovorthrow the whisky ollBarcby. recently sitting In Tren ton, called the Leglslatmo. I remain n pro lilbltlonUt; I cannot help that, but I am will ing to unite with all good peoplo to place in tho Legislature a set of men who aro willing Me xhoulil saynt tho ballot-boxes In each rouiity whether or not tho dram shops shall be closed, Hnd Qcncrnl Flsk and his followers In New .Jersey been willing long ago "In unite with the good people" who wete fctill not Intolerant there would he no "whisky oligarchy silting nt Trenton" to-day. If the Prohibition lets unite heartily with the Republicans local option vslll bo tolerably assured, and the condition of things bettered to that extent. It Is a matter of satisfac tion that General Flsk recognises this fact and proposes" to.iegulatc his actions accordingly. The theory of the Prohibitionists has been that they will foieo tho Itepubll tan paity to become a party which will accept all or nothing in tho way of temptranco reform. 9tich a plan ha i never succeeded' In tho history of poll tics and never will succeed. Tho masses of a party cannot ho bulldozed. Tliu rtiiiso of piohlbitlon has distinctly gone backward of late. It deserved It. It Is not a good cause. Prohibition is a faihne. It has succeeded nowhere. The blear-eyed homo drinker of Jlalno mid thobotlle-pcddlcrsof Kansas testify uliku to Its absurdity. Hut local option Is a good thing, temperance reform Is a Kood thing, and the punishment of drunkenness Is a good thing. Tho He publican party, and It alone, Is tho party of leform In tho directions Indicated. If other Prohibition leaders than Fink will follow his present example they may, beforo they die, do bomu thing for thcjcal cause of temperance. Till: I'lINSION COMHIBSIONKIt'.S UANIKIU.

Two notable public, men who met In the corridors or tho Fifth Avenue Hotel ti night or two since, snys tho Oniphle, Mclo ex Governor Charles Foster ol Ohio nnd ex Congressman' Jay Hubbcll of Michigan. They nro both small lu Inltirc stoutly bull!, wltlh gieat ca pacity for work and long political ex perience. Their chanco meeting drew out an liitcieslltigdlsclosiuo of tlio In consistency of an eminent civil service lefoimer. In 1878 Mr, Hiibboll, as chalnnnnof tho Republican Congres sional Committee, prepared a circular to oflleo-holders asking a per cent, con tribullun to the campaign fund from their a!ailes. Hu submitted II lo Gov ernor Foster for criticism, who took it to Picsldcnt Hayes and Call Scltur., then Secielary of llm Interior, for their examination. It was Imloiscd and ap piovedby both, and as Sclmiv. was the most Hnleky member of the Cab inet, the Congicsslimnl Committee thought they weio all right mid scut out tho clieular. In 1880, ami ngaln lu 1883, a circular, Iden tical in language wind for word, was sent out. In tho latter year It was mivlo the subject ol a great line and cry by tlio so-called civil service reformers, chief among whom was Carl Seliurz. The latter denounced the circular In Intcivlews, writings, and speeches, but was careful not lo tell any ono of his own responsibility for lis original prep aration. Mr. Hubbell tells a good story about the late Senator Zach Chandler, which occurred at this lime. Chandler was chairman of the Republican Na tional Committee, lie had appiovcil the circular and was lu a measure re sponsible for It, as tliu money came to his committee In tho end Hubbell was belngsavagely attacked, and bethought Chandler ought to come forward and share llio blame. He told Chandler a1) much, when the old man replied : "Why, you nro under tho load now, Hubbell., and can't get out. What's tho use of two of us gelling under It?" Hilbbell didn't press the matter any further. Somctliliu; About "Tom" Itced. A qunlnl chaiactcr this Tom Reed Is. He hasn't the arts of a politician nt all, and his friends, when bo first ran for Congiess, In 1870, thought he was fool ish for giving up n growing and lucra tive law practice for tho chnnces of public life. Yet ho has succeeded In making a nnmc and placo for himself among the leaders of political thought In this country. He has had somo hard fights to keep his seat. Tho district which ho leprescntsls a dangerously clno one, and, though ho has been elected six times, the margin of his ma jorities has been occasionally rather dangerous. One time ho slipped In by a little less than ono hundred votes. Theru Is one town In Ids district where Tom Reed has not received ninny vote for llio last few years. - That town Is lliunswick. When Arthur was Pi csl dent nearly every man In tho town rec ommended a certain Republican for postmaster. Half ndozeuof dissatisfied people suggested another name, Tom Reed, in his usual way, didn't glvo much attention to tho matter, and when Ihe Postmnstcr.Genci.il asked which of the men should have tho nlaco Tom caielessly named the tallow who hnd the least backing. That made tho Dams wIckcis mail and they swore they would not vote for him ngaln. They kept their pioinise at the following election. Then Tom Reed got mad, and It was not long beforo be had a chanco to re taliate. The lliunswlekers wanted some old cannon for a soldiers' 'monument, and tho committee wrote; lo Mr. Reed, asking him to get them some fiom the "War Department. Hu responded In n way that almost paralyzed tho llruns wickets, lleie is what he said: "Gentlemen I am not In the old junk business this year. "Yours truly, T. II. RnKD." I don't know whether the war be twelui Tom nnd the Hrunswlckers Is over yet or not. When Benjamin IJuttcrwoith of Ohio was 'Commissioner of Patents It was thought ho would develop Into ono of tho stiongest patent lawyers In this country when bis term expired. His constituents, however, called upon him again, aud ho returned to Congress', wheio ho Is serving his fifth term. Ho is a tall man, with wcll-rouudcd form, rather positlvo faco and a restless giay eye, denoting activity and strength. He Is-very ambitious, nnd had not McKln ley fiom his State been a candidate for Sppaker he would havo been. Hut thero are loo many great men in Ohio for tliu olllces to reach them all, and Mr. Ilutterwoi'th has suffered In Ihc picscnt shuttle. He is n thrifty Indi vidual, ns well ns nn nblo man, and he has miula n good deal of money since he has been In Congress, lie does not spend much time In Ids old home, Cin cinnati, but las a pleasant place Just outsldo of Washington. He Is presi dent of tho Central American Tele giapb and Telephono Company and other Important Interests which pay dividends. Ho Is n popular man In Congress, and would bo moro so If ho wero less ambitious. I saw him with cvcral lithir Huckeycs nt the Gllsoy, N. Y. Star.
