cured him thousands OF votes. The
inconceivable folly of naming a can
didate for the Senatorship before the
Legislature was secured cost others
thousands of votes. Then the nomin-
alton of an American ticket was
Democratic device which an erratic
Republican unwittingly helped to
make effective. The Endorsement
given to O'Donnell disguised other
Republicans with the management oi
their party. All these things ana
others contributed to the success OF
the Democratic party and placed 1t
within its power to elect Senator
1t is all important that this power
shall be used wisely. There is no
surplus strength to fritter away. The
party should look among its best men
for Senator. His place of residence
is OF less importance than his person
al fitness. The southern part OF the
State has peculiar claims on the
grounds of locality and it names lit
candidate. san Francisco has two or
three men whom the State would ac-
cept as rising above locality. Wheth-
er the choice fell on S. M. Wilson, j.
S. Hager, J. p. Hoge, Mr.. Hellmani
of Los Angeles, or Jackson Temple OF
Sonoma, the people will be satisfied
and the party strengthened. Either
one can go to the Senate without eX-
posing himself to the insulting intl-
nation that the honor was purchased.
Doubtless this is a view OF the
question wich will be taken quite
generally, and the out-spoken, manly
way in which Mr.. Hellman proclaims
his sentiments ON the use OF money
to reach the honor will win for him
both friends and votes. Members OF
the Legislature will feel free to cast
their vote for man who openly
condemns the use OF money. But
there are other strong reasons for
voting for Mr.. Hellman. He is in all
respects a most fitting person to rep
resent the State in the Senate. He
will do it wisely, we'll, with dignity,
and for the benefit of the State and
Nation.

VISUALIZED NUMBERS.
IdiOsyncracy OF a Little Girl-A
Very Peculiar Phenomenon.

IdiOsyncracy OF a Little Girl-A
Very Peculiar Phenomenon.
In 1850, while l was in Washington,
l read Mr.. F. Cations note on "Visual-
lied Numerals" in Nature. After | came
to Madison, probaly late in 1881, or
nearly 1882, | mentioned my own entire
inability to visualize numerals, or any
thug else of the kind, to a member of
the university faculty, Professor Q. l
was interested to learn that when boy
he had always conceived the vowel
sounds as having color, and that he still
retained some traces of this early habit.
Ispoke of this subject at my dinner,
table shortly after, and my daughter
Mildred, then about eight years old,
said she also had colors for the days of
the week, as follows: Monday, blue;
Tuesday, pink; Wednesday, brown or
gray; Thursday, brown or gray; Friday,
white; Saturday, pure white; Sunday,
black. 1t was said laughingly, and at
the time it passed my mind as a joke,
that she wished in sport to assume the
idiosyncrasies of elder persons. A few
days after l questioned her on
these colors. and she gave me the
same replies. 1t was again spoken of
as a kind of joke and a question Of
memory, but wrote the colors down in
nv memorandum book for 1882. A
year later l produced this, and again
questioned her, this time seriously, and
found her answers the same as at first.
Again, on August 5, 1885, her replies
were the same.
The tenacity of child's memory is
very remarkable, but | was convinced
that this was MT case of memory and
Imagination, but true phenomenon Of
the kind referred to. l therefore went
further, and asked her if there was any
other phenomena of the kind (she is
now III years.. found that each of
the letters of the alphabet had a
color to her as follows: A, white;
C, yellow, cream color; d, dark
blue; E, red; F, black; G., green; HI,
white; /, black; J, gray-brown; X, gray;
L. dark blue; M, N. brown, not much

brown; S, yellow; I, Green; U, yellow;
V, white; w. brown; X, Y, not much
color; L, greenish.
The prevalence of yellow and green
and the scarcity of reds and pinks are
noteworthy. l found she knew these
colors instantly, when l asked for
them in any order. What is
more remarkable, she can instant
ly name the brown letters in a
group, the black ones, etc. Apparently
she does not require to pass the alpha
bet in review TO decide this. The nun.

The senatorship.

Mr, Hellman, in his enunciations
touching the methods by which he
intended to seek the Senatorship,-if
he sought that dignity at all,-have
done him pre-eninent good with all
classes of good citizenship in the
State. The San Francisco Call, in a
recent issue, says on this subject.
Comments in Eastern papers on
the processes by which rich men be-
come Senators are especially directed
at California and Nevada. The same
processes prevail inaS several of the
Eastern States, but the Pacific coast
has for long time served as the back
to receive the lash deserved quite as
much by other backs. An ofense be-

There is no objection to the election
of rich man if his standing among
men is such as to warrant his asplra-

election by chance as slender as
that which served in New York to
rive the electoral vote OF that
State to Mr.. Cleveland. II any
one of three or four events
had not happened Mr.. Blaine
would have overcome Mr.. Cleveland's 8
