In 1873, Warner and Mark Twain, in collaboration, wrote “The Gilded Age”, a novel which satirized many of the conditions of American public life. Senator Pomeroy of Kansas, who had sought re-election, had been arrested on a charge of bribery immediately after the caucus in which he was defeated. The authors made use of the incident in their book as they did that of the Rev. James Harlan, a poor and supposedly honest man, to help elect whom senator from Kentucky, it was revealed that the president of the Union Pacific railroad, involved in the Credit Mobiler scandals, and contributed $10,000. Hawley was back in Washington as the year 1874 dawned. After a brief visit to Hartford. He had been re-elected to Congress in the spring of 1873. en_US
