IVASiilNuloN, Ju* l.".—Th* unmminoment that Mr. Walter I’. Phillips has no■uinyil editorial charge of The Electric Ago calls the attention to ouo of the brightest newspaper men of the United States. Mr. Phillips' 1 urtoro w as lately hung in the press gallery of the house of representatives. His is the youngest in the press portrait enllec tioa in the Capitol and he ranks us the associate of Charles A. Dana, Joseph Pulitzer, 31 unit Halstead and the other editors of our biggest daily journals. At 43 he has Leooii'.u one of the h ading journalistic men of the country, and it is duo to him that the United Press has reached its wonderful eflleit'iicy. Horn in Massachusetts, his family is one of the oldest in the United Stab's. His great-grandfather fought at Hunker Hill, and it was in his arms that Gen. Warren was caught when he fell. Mr. Phillips’ father was a farmer, but young Phillips did not take to th" s 41, and at 13 ho started out to make his fortune. Hu went to Providence, K. I., and when Fort Sumter fell

lie was one of the most active newsboys who carried papers at this time. The Providence Journal office, where lie bought bis extras, was in a building which was also occupied by the American Telegraph company, ami which afterward became the Ai 1 Western Union. ’ Young Phillips becatn e fascinated with telegraphy,

learned the nrt and was soon one of the best receivers iu New England. As u telegrapher he received President Lincoln’s first call for troops. He -irted as an ojiorntor all through the war and received the news of Lee’s surrender, Richmond’s fall, the assassination of President Lincoln, John Wilkes Booth’s death and other press new s which made the country alternately glad and sorrowful. During this time Mr. Phillips devoted himself to study and to waiting for various journals. H ' had an ambition to bo a good uewspa|>er man. He had taken a prize as one of the best telegraphers ill the United States at the telegraph tournament, an' Professor Morse had decorated him w ith a badge given to the operator who had at that date made the fastest record. In 1873 Mr. Phillips left Providence for Yew York and became a reporter on The New York Sun. He tried to write editorials, hut his editorials were thrown Into the waste basket. He got them out and sent them to Mr. Dana, but they did not appear, and Mr. Phillips concluded to leave The Sun. A week after ho left The Sun printed his editorial paragraphs, but he had in the meantime entered the ' Ilice of the .Issociatcd Press, and a year after he began his work hero at Washington he was chid assistant to John W. Siuionton, the general agent. It was just ten years ago that Mr. Phillips became the chief of the Washington bureau of the Associated Press, and here ) o remained until 1- 3. At this time the United Press had become financially embarrassed, and 3Ir. Phillips concluded to go in with it. He invested his spat e funds, became chief manager of the ass, 1.1 in, and inn short time put it on its feet nsrival of the Associated Press. When ho took charge of it the list of newspapers served numbered 102, and the receipts were a little over iilOO a day. Now the United Press serves one or more newspajers in each leading city und'town, and its daily receipts run over a thousand dollars. It has iimii-urated, through Mr. Philliiis, new ways of gathering and sending news, and it controls more miles of wire than any other p!" . association of the country. It has its eorrespond'-nt at each crossroads. It has made its. If felt us a news gatherer. People who are not posted on the workings of the large press a - lociation* have little idea of their operation. The United Press works the longest and most complicated telegraph circuit in the w orld. It has a single wire 2,. r >00 miles long, and it works direct from Chi car > t > San Francisco. The United Press works the national conventions for all the papers of the country, and from St. Louis and ■Chicago it* wires reach to every village in the land. At these conventions there was a great strif * between the United Press and the Associa' sl Press us to which would get the first bulletins of news into the various

cities.

Returning to Mr. Phillips, he is now located in New York, and his association with The Electric Age will not influence his workings with the United Press. He is a good all around newspaper man, as well :-.s a good executive, and can w rite as racy n dispatch as ail}' man w ho bonus his letters over the telegraph wires.

expensive life of Lincoln than he can ever hope to attempt. In the meantime, the other biography has taken very well and both of its authors are satisfied. They work together here at Washington and they manage to turn out a groat amount of careful writing. They are perfectly harmonious In their composition, exchange notes with each other and revise each other’s manuscripts. Col. Hay tells me lie will defy any man to pick out which chapters are written by him and* which are the composition ol Nicolay. Nicolay, however, takes care of the papers, inul the Lincoln papers possessed by him are careful!./ arranged, classified and are stored infireproofapartments. Manyof tbemhave been copied mid duplicates are kept In different places so that if one set of papers were hist the others could still be used. Those papers have proved to bo worth considerably more than their weight in gold. I am told that the biographers got ?.‘>0,00U for the use of their material in The Century alone, and they have yet to realize on their publication in book form. It will undoubtedly bring in a greater amount in thisshape, and the result will be that it will add considerably to John Hay’s pile and will put Nicolay into very comfortable circumstances. I asked Col. Huy one day as to his writing of poetry and whether he had written any lately. He replied that his poetic writing lasted hut two or throe weeks. Ho is, I think, a little ashamed of his dialect poetry, and he did net c:uv t > make a reputation in this line. As it is, I doubt not that his “Little Breot-hos" will lie quoted in many places where his history will never b • thoroughly ivad, nor his work “Castilian Days’’ lie known. The world would have gotten more out of him had fortune dealt less kindly with him, but ns it is ho is doing more than his share among the millionaires of the United States. Our millionaires of today, however, are by no means literary nonentities. Homo of the most striking books of this decade have been written by rich men, and you will nowhere fliid more brains and figures in u short isinipass than in Andrew Carnegie’s "Triumphant Democracy." Mr. Bookw alter, the Springfield, O., millionaire, has written some good politico-economical treatises, and Iceland Stanford could write a very interesting liook if he tried. Take the millionaire! of t is lay In the United States and you will fiud no brighter and better read men thou they. They are ns a rule men of education and culture. Their beads are full of ideas, mid they are far different from the hereditary rich men of foreign countries. They are as a rule good talkers and manyof them nre very fluent writers. Senator Tom Palmer can write as beautiful an essay as the best of our litterateurs. William Walter Phelps contributes able articles to the magazines, and Jay Gould ln-gan his life by writing a history of New York county. Homo of the braiuiest men of the United States senate are the rich men, and the business of the government is undoubtedly better off in the hands of men who have shown that they know how to manage their own affairs lief ore undertaking to direct those of Uncle Ham.

The Itiiftido News Courteously Answers a Courteous Inquiry. The Buffalo News, more than any other paper or any other inilucucc, is responsible to tho country for Grover Cleveland. It first dragged him from the obscurity to which he lielongs. It boomed him for sheriff and lor mayor, to both of which ottieos ho was elected. In both of these offices he did well, and it is said that his hanging of a fellow citizen was done with a neatness and dispatch that gratified all his friend . and put to shame his carping enemies. Thus encouraged nml emboldened, The News carefully groomed him and trotted him out for tho gubernatorial race in New York state. Again ho was successful and again lie acquitted himself fairly ns governor, being clos-ly watched and constantly coached by Daniel Manning through his crafty and able lieutenant, Dan Laiffont, who, at Mr. Manning's request ,wn , made private secret ary. Again The News was first in tho field for the great national race, handling Grover uud staking everything on his ability to “get there.” Having run him under the wire a winner by a nose length, Tho News waited in confidence to see the grandest and most perfect administration ou record. Great was Us disappoint meat. As the years went by Tho News grew colder and colder, and the opening of tho campaign finds it strongly arrayed against him—which, by tho way, is one of tho many very yellow straws to bo found in Cleveland's native state. Being asked by tbo Albany Union why The News is not now for Cleveland as in tho days of yore that paper answers us follows: Having been asked why in a friendly and courteous way, it is not amiss, perhaps, to tell The Union, and others who may bo interested, why Tho News does not “make a good tight” for Cleveland this year: Because ho is not the man ho was four years ago. Then he was an honest, simple minded man, with no apparent purpose but to serve the people and make himself an honored name, lie has developed what tbo boys call "the big head” since then, and makes the same mistake Louis XIV is said to have made when ho sat for a picture of the Creator of the world. Bocaiis- ho hat pretended to reform the civil service and lias made that pretense a mask for carrying out grudges and vexing friends. Because he has persistently snubbed the city that gave him his wonderful start in public life. Because he lias launched at the last of his administration, when it can do harm and can do no good, a dangerous scheme of “tariff reform.” Because he has allowed New York state politics to l>e run by a clique of Albany politicians and national offices by an offensive southern combination — ono of whoso members (Garland) is in disgrace, but retained in office, and another (Bayard) distrusted as a thoroughly unpractical man and dishonored by a succession of tho worst appointments ever mode under any administration. Because ho signed the rebel war flag order as a silly bit of elap trap and recanted on false grounds. Because lie stayed away from the St. l,ouis encampment when lie should have gone and went when it was apparent it was to patch up a sore. Because lie took a "ghoulish glee” in vetoing widows' pensions—often ou strained objections or none worth considering. Because the government has been forcibly feeldo throughout under his administration—full of cheap buncombe, of toadying to southern sentiment, and of meddle muddlo experiments in tariii matters. Because ho has proved a weak man where he was thought a strong man. a vain man in Ids dodging of criticism where ho was thought to be too earnest and too well poised to care for opposition of any sort, a stubborn man where ho was thought a firm one—as iu tho Garland ease, and while claiming to bo a representativo of Democratic ideas has kept the great leaders of Democracy at bay and divided it in congress for no motive that can lie guessed unless a fear of rivalry or a. selfish determination to advance his own fortunes at any cost.

The Dog Fennel Ticket.

Everybody wants to know what Col. Ingersoil meant at Chicago last week by calling Cleveland and Thurman tho “dog fenno!” candidates. It has been supposed hy some that lie really said “dog kennel” candidates, meaning really an expression of contempt; lint The Press is happy to state that Col. Ingersoll did not say this or mean this, and t hat ho had no Intention of sotting a bad example by slinging campaign mud. The expression “dog fennel” lias a historic meaning in this connection, and its historic souse is tho sense In which Col. Tngcrsoll used it. During tiie war of the rebellion the Knights of the Golden Circle, a copperhead organization that extended over several states in tho Mississippi valley, used to drill in hack lots, where tho ugly weed known as "dog fennel” grew, because they were ashamed to drill in tlie public streets or eonsnienous parts of town. Jamo-i Iv. Ma i-. then editor of The Canton (Ills.) inter, denounced a loeal company of tlie Golden Circlo Knights by by tlie epithet of “Dog Fennel Hangers,’ I which some village genius had applied to |

them by u happy inspiration.

Tho nit kniitne took from the start. It became the synonym for copperheads iu all that, region, raid Col. Ingersoll. then a resident of tho neighboring county of L’eorhi, ie-ard it and salted it down in his vocabulary of gems of eloquence. What wan nor nn' ir.-.l than that he should apply it to the llck'-t composed of <'levelr.nd, who stayed at homo during the war, and Thurman, whose copperhead sympathies wore notorious?
