The Next United states senate.

Twenty new United States Sem
ators will be elected next winter. The
Senate is divided between forty-two
Republicans, tWenty-nine Democrats
and two Independents, giving Repub-
licans a majority Of eleven. The next
Senate will consist of seventy-six SEN
ators. If the Democrats hold their
present seats and elect nine other of
the twenty-nine Senators to be chosen,
then, with Democratic Vice Presi-
dent in the chair, they would control
the upper house of Congress. The
sixteen Republicans whose terms ex-
pire with she present Congress are
from the States of Arkansas, Illinois,
Iowa, Kansas. Louisiana, Maine, Mas
sachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Ne
braska, New Jersey, Rhode Island,
South Carolina and Wisconsin. The
nine Democrats going out are from
Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, Ken
lucky. North Carolina, Oregon, Ten
nessee, Virginia and West Virginia.
One of the retiring Senators-Hamil-
ton of Texas-is classed as an lnde-
pendent. In addition to these the
new State of Colorado, whose politics
are in doubt, will elect two Senators,
and Louisiana will elect a second Sen
ator to fill the vacancy for which
Pinchback contested. The Boston
Transcript, in referring to this matter,
says The Democrats are certain to
make more gains, and it would not re-
quire a great deal of careless indepen-
dent voting to give the government
entirely over to Democratic control in
the event of the success of the Demo-
cratic National ticket"

THE CHRONICLE FOR THE CAM
PAIGN.

In view of the approaching presi-
dental campaign, it is to be anticlpa-
ted that an increased demand will
arise for prompt and accurate politi-
cal intelligence. With view of sup
plying this demand, we desire to say
that we shall always in future, as in
the past, endeavor to keep up with
the exigences of the times; all infor-
nation in regard to both the presi-
dental campaign and the county can
vass will be given with promptitude
and accuracy to the utmost of our
ability, and the comments which we
may feel called upon to make on the
events which may arise will be dicta-
ted by the same principles which have
hitherto been our guide. These are
the vigorous advocacy of REFORM and
uncompromising hostility to corrup-
ton in Federal affairs, maintaining
our adhesion to the cause of Tilden
and Hendricks, who were our choice
as candidates for the Presidency long
before the convention at St. Louis ;
and in State politics the conscientious
maintenance of the credit of the State.
Our subscription list is at this time
larger and more lucrative than it has
been since our journal was first offered
to the public in 1888, and to adverti-
sers we may say without presumption,
that no better medium of publicity
can be procured throughout this re-
gion of country.

Peabody School Fund in the South.

The Trustees of the Peabody Edu-
cational Fund, at meeting at the
Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs, in
West Virginia, severely rebuked the
administrations in those Southern
States where the Republicans are in
the ascendency. DIR. Sears report
showed generally fourishing condi-
ton of the Public Schools In all the
Southern States except in Florida,
South Carolina and Louisiana. Mr..
George Peabody Russell, of England,
who spent the last winter in the South,
in discussing the report expressed his
opinion that nothing could be expected
from those three States In the way of
advancing their educational interests
until there was an entire change in
their State governments. Mr.. Russell
is in no sense a politician, and he
spoke from general observation and
from a truthful standpoint. He saw
plainly that the Republican party in
the South did not foster or encourage
education, and that only in the States
where the intelligent Democracy were
in the ascendency did creditable sys-
tenn of education exist. Over l,OOO,-
600 children in the South are attend
ing the schools in part supported by
the Peabody Fund. Some 81 ,0O0,0 600
were last year expended from the Pea
body Fund, and much will be expend-
ed the ensuing year. Florida, Louis
lana and South Carolina have suffered
the curse of Republican misrule since
the war, and we are not at all surprised
at the report that censures those
States for their failure to foster public
education Cincinnati Enquirer.
