He Tolls Why His Townspeople
Ought to Elect Him and Breezily
Discusses the New Union Party
and Its Proposed Caucus.
Dorrtince Uuckloy llutdettc, the man
of humor from Greenfield township, will
be recalled as quite a smart politician
in tho days gone by. Ho was quite a
conspicuous llgttre In the strenuous
days when the county seal was In tho
little J.uiierne town known as AVIlkos
Harre and there were few conventions
at which "Doric" was not present as a
delegate with the power to command
more votes' than Ills own. Hut now
that he Is not' so active politically, It
does not follow that lie has lost inter
est In the devious ways of politics. On
the contrary, he Is a diligent student
of affairs and can discuss politics with
that breeziness that marks all his ex
pressions of opinion on. matters in the
public mlttd. The new Union party
has claimed "Dorie's" attention, anil he
discusses the motto of that party quite
tersely, at the same time renewing Ills
loyally to the Republican parly. In
writing to Tlie Tribune he also spestks
of his candidacy Tor tax collector. He
says:
"I am Informed that there will be a
I'tilon caucus held in the town house in
our town on Saturday next, Jan. 11, for
the purpose of placing in nomination
the names of those of our neighbors
whom those present wish to hold the
several oliices of our township.
"Well, it Is said, that 'in union there
is strength,' 'milted we stand, divided
we fall,' and so forth, but tile Itomtbli
cans of our town are able to stand in
dependent or all others, if tliey see tit.
However, I haven't any serious reason
for not attending a t'nlnn caucus, or a
hepubtlcan caucus: all I want Is to be
nominated for tax collector, and then,
when the time conies, want to lie
fleeted which, I- claim, is no more than
the Republicans or my town owe me,
as I was the first tax collector ever
elected in our town; but 1 think 1 was
wronged out of the oliice.
"The caucus will be held, so 1 am
told, on Saturday, .(an. 11, 11102. l,et
every voter turn out and choose his
choice, and. If there Is a full turn-out
there should be no squealing about
those placed before tlie voters.
"The hours of tlie caucus are front 2
o'clock until 4.

Popular Comcdinn and His Company
Given Merited BecepHon.
Tho popularity In Corbondolo of Jere
McAullffe, tho comedian, was Well at
tested' last night, when the Grand wan
choked with an audience that gave this
entertaining actor and his meritorious
company the reception they desired.
In n few words AleAullffe'fl company
Is by far the best organization In re
pertoire that has come to Carbondale
In years. It Is doubtful, even, If a
better company playing to popular
prices hait uv'er visited Carbondale, ad
mitting that the most capable on the
road have been seen in this elly. From
a dramatic, standpoint It can claim
credit that many a so-called high-class
attraction has not won; and, respect
ing the specialties, which arc a feature
of these companies, they are of a class
that Is distinct: they have never been
approached, As a whole, the perform
ance was a pleasant surprise, for, as a
rule, the repertoire compaulcH are but
mediocre. The excellence of tho per
formance presages one of the most
successful weeks in the history of the
Grand, and crowded audiences, after
noons and evenings, can rightly be
expected.
"The Young "Wife," a comedy drama
of merit, In which .Sehnii lleeriuuns
appeared here several years ngo.though
not with a more capable Oast, McAu
llffe was keenly enjoyable as Horace
Greengage Dobbins, the character giv
ing good scope for his qualities as a
droll comedian. The other members of
tho .company sustained themselves well,
making the rendition acceptably well
balanced. McAuliffe's singing was as enjoyable
as ever, while the Brothers Martlne
were astonishingly clever In their ac
robatic work. I'aullne Saxon gave a
Sis Hopklus'sort of act that was quite
original. The ladles' symphony-orchestra
was a feature thai was conspicu
ous, their concert numbers prior to tlie
performance being highly meritorious.
Tills afternoon "A Mother's Honor''
will be tlie bill, and tonight "The Man
from Italy." There will be the usual
specialties nt each performance.
