MR. GORMAN THERE AGAIN.
Along with the mention of the cere
monies incident, a few days ago, to the
opening of the extraordinary session of
- t ...
the Senate, a cress dispatch remarks
that, so far as the new members are
concerned, the ovation with which Sen
ator Gorman was received, was the fea
ture of the hour.
Beyond a doubt, a rood many peopl
were glad to I see Mr. Gorman In the
Senate once more; beyond a doubt, no
body felt better about it than Mr. Gor
man himself. lie is very much at home
in the Senate.. It ,was hard lines for
him to be obliged to step out for a time
and let a Maryland Republican step in.
Mr. Gorman's career In the Federal
Senate began when he was a boy. lit
was a Senate page. He was appointed
to that service way back in 1852, and
that was a long time ago"; It Was two
Presidential terms before Lincoln wat
elected. He was thirteen years old
when he began service as a page. Lat
er on, he held one office or another in
connection with the Senate' business
until 1866. !
Thereafter. Mr, Gorman was actively
in Maryland polities. He was elected
to membership1 in the Federal Senate in
