Senator Dolph As An Errand Boy In Washington
Special correspondence from Washington March 18 describes Senator Dolph of Oregon as an earnest, dignity conscious figure who hustles through a snowstorm to intervene in a letter mail matter. Wanamaker and Clarkson explain postoffice policy on returning letters after mailing, while other senators appear at markets and oyster wharves in everyday city life. Sir Julian Pauncefote is depicted Americanizing, frequenting Shoemaker's and moonshine whisky, with Kentucky senators famed for their own supply. The piece also notes varied scenes with Cockrell, Gorman, Bruce, Butler, Casey, and Col. Casey visiting the capital’s social spots and the monument.
