New Hampshire and Michigan have
yet to elect. Each will choose II Re-
publican. So the Democrats will have
Il majority of nine, not counting Scna-
tor Davis, Of Illinois, who generally
votes with tho Democrats.
Most of the carpet-bag Senators, in
pursuance of their natural political
bent, are going to the territories in
search of further political promotion !;
as for instance, Patterson, of South
Carolina, is to take a position in Ari
IONA on the Central Pacific railroad ;
Dorsey is taken with a sudden inclina-
ton to raise stock in New Mexico;
Spencer has already stakcd out some
valuable claims in Dakota Conover is
! looking for some comfortable place in
| most any direction; Sargent intends
| eventually to bring up in Nevada, and
| the probability is that nearly all Of
our outgoing statesmen, who cam OF
be provided with a foreign mission,
will be put on some detached service
ut home, where, in due course of time
and circumstances, they can be made
conveniently available.
The United States treasury contains
over twenty millions of standard sill
yer dollars, and the number is said to
be increasing at the rate of sixty thou
sand a day. Secretary Sherman OBJ
jects to the scheme Of paying them
out on salaries and other government
indebtedness to creditors who are I'M
willing to receive them and just now
there seems no available way to get
rid OF the surplus without further leg
islation.
Tho women in Kansas vote mt the
school elections. AT q recent election
at Usage city one woman went to vote
but before she got through telling the
judges what a time her Willie had
with the scarlet fever when he was
only two years old, it was time to close
the polls and she had forgotten to de-
post her ballot.
! The debt of North Carolina is about
1927 200, 900, and as the State is dcsper-
ately poor, it is claimed that it can
only be paid by liberal concessions on
the part of the bondholders. Several
years ago proposition was made to
the creditors to pay on the basis of
$4,000, 700, but it was rejected.
] The name Lent is derived from a
Saxon word signifying spring, the sea-
son of the year when it occurs. The
length of time of tho observance has
varied, first having been forty hours
and then thirty-siX days. Four days
We're added in the ninth century,
making, us ut present, forty days.
William Pitt kellogg may we'll be-
gin to worry in his Senatorial seat. The
validity of his title, over which rests
u very dark aud oninous cloud, will
doubtless be taken under serious adj
visement by tho new Democratic
Senate.
