Butler’s Jokes Hint at Political Move to Fall River
A remark by General Butler to Mr. Barlington sparks talk that Butler may seek the Fall River district seat after Congress adjourns. Friends say Butler will move to contest the nomination, aiming to swagger and browbeat in a new district as he did in Congress. The note recalls Cox’s 1872 defeat and subsequent election to Brooks’s seat, suggesting a potential playful yet pointed retort if Cox runs again next winter.
