CUMMINGS' FINE SENTDIEN‘I‘.
(Hartford Courant)
There is sonrcthing grimly lruiu-
orous about the contribution of
Homer Cummings of Stamford to
the campaign expenses of Judge
liollln U. Tyler. rotently the Demo-
cratic candidate for United States
Senator. Tho Judge's election or.
pense statement shows that Mr.
Cummings gave 850 to tho ’l‘ylor
(arise. Tiic Stamford statesman “as
the De ocrntlc nominee for the
United fates Senate in 1916. when
he was defeated by Senator George
P. McLean. and he didn't have any
trouble in figuring what would lrap-
pop to Judge 'i‘sl tony?" later.
Mr. Cummings p ably to t that he
was giving something to a funeral
fund. it was natural that he should
have sympathy for the Democratic
candidate who was doomed to the
rare met by Mr. Cummings himself.
His attitude may be likened to that
of General Winfield Scott Hancock.
defeated Democratic candidate M ‘
President in 1380. who. for the pur-
pose of campaign levlty in 1884. was
made to father the following verso
at the expense of Grover Cleveland.
his successor as Democratic standard
bearer:
"Hark! from the tombs a. mourntrn
sound: '
'Tls Winfield Hancock's cry.
Come. Grover. come and sec
ground
Where you must shortly lie."
(if course Hancock was not guilty
of the authorship and the Joke would
have been on him if he had been. as
Cleveland was elected. Perhaps 'Mr.
Cummings had something of the
feeling attributed to General Han-
cock when hc sent that check to
Judge Tyler.

attributes of a queen. but was poli-
tically unscrupulous and had “flair
