Home Study.

By John H. Daniels, Executive Secretary Chdu-
tdnq1d College.
Everybody who has passed what is known
as the school age without enjoying tho adj
vantages OF thorough school aud college
training recognizes the loss which be has
sustained, but comparatively few appreciate
the advantages which are yet within their
reach. In these days of scientific clubs,
reading circles, free libraries, cheap books
and university extension any one who is
willing to make O moderate sacrifice OF time
and work Is able to make up In large
measure for his early educational disad-
vantages or omissions.
Chautauqua has been prominent during the
last few years in the work of assisting busy
people TO educate themselves through the
establishment of courses for individual
readers a d the many thousand local read
ing circles; but department OF the Chau-
tauQua system which Is not 30 generally
known or understood is the correspondence
college. In connection with this institution
about 400 students are studying by CORE.
s2ondence the reguler college course which
is offered In our best resident colleges.
The method of instruction has stood the
test Of years Of practical use and is no longer
an experiment. The instructors are repre-
sentative members Of the faculties Of repre-
sentative institutions, and offer correspond
ence courses which are on a par with the
courses which they offer In their class
rooms. Lesson outlines are sent TO the stu
dent to direct him IN the preparation Of his
lessons, and in such numbers as to allow
him to use all the time at his disposal With
out being compelled to wait for new instruc-
ton sheets. He may cover the ground as
rapidly or slowly as his own time or PREFER
ence may determine without being delayed
or hurried by classmates. He must recite
the whole Of every lesson, and the
practice of putting his answer on paper
trains him once In the subject which be is
studying more thoroughly and in brevity
and exectness Of expression. This method Is
also calculated 10 give him greater conf
dence In the result of bis work than be
would gain In the ordinary way. While the
Office of Chautauqua College. where students
are enrolled aud make their arrangements
for work, is located at Buffalo, N. Y, the
college itself extends from the eight or ten
local institutions, where the professors are
engaged, 10 the many cities. towns and viii
lagos, near and far, where the individual
student Is following the guidance Of his,
perhaps, far distant instructor.

The Great Come ticut Battle.

BIZ Representatives Albeit H. Walker Leader of
the Democrats in the Fight.
The Senate OF Connecticut consists of
twenty-four members, each Of whom is
elected by senatorial district. The power
of forming these districts resides in the
legislature, subject to the constitutional
provision that no town shall be divided be-
tween two or mora districts. and that no
district shall include parts of more than one
county, and that no county shall have less
than two disti lets. There are eight coun-
ties in the state, and each of three OF these
has smaller population than either of
several of the towns in other counties, aud
the smallest of the counties has popula-
ton more than three times smaller
than the largest town. The practical opera
ton OF the constitution, therefore, upon
the senatorial apportionment. is TO make
the senatorial districts vary In population
from less than IL, 900 to more than $4,000
each.
The Connecticut House OF Representa-
tives consists of 252 members, apportioned
among the 1853 towns in the state. Exactly
half these towns have / representative each,
while the other half have 2 representatives
each, the constitutional rule being that the
ancient towns have representatives each,
regardless of population, while the modern
towns have representatives or / repre-
sentative each according as their popula-
ton equals or does not equal 5000. or the
81 towns which have 2 representatives
each, only 80 are entitled thersto
on the score of population, while the other
81 are entitled thereto only upon the
ground of their antiquity. The practical
operation OF the constitution. in respect OF
representative apportionment, makes 2
representatives sit in the House for popula-
ton ranging all the way from less than 500
to more than Sc 900.
It is for these constitutional reasons
that one-third of the "A senator's repre-
sent more than half of the people OF the
state, while decidedly less than one-sixth of
the representatives represent majority Of
the whole population OF Connecticut.
The large and small senatorial districts,
and the large and small towns, are so divided
between the Democratic party and the Re-
publican party, chat the Republican party
has had a majority Of each house at all
times for many years until the present leg
islature, iu which the democrats have a
majority in the Senate, though the repub-
lioans have still larger majority In the
House. And the Republican party has thus
controlled every legislature during the last
half OF generation, although ii has never
cast as many votes in the state as the DEM
ocratic party at any election since 1880.
The constitution Of Connecticut also pro-

The Attitude of the Farmers Alliance.
BY Congressman L. f. LIVINGSTON
What is the attitude of the alliance peo-
pie at this time toward the great questions
that are agitating the public mind, and
what is their condition and strength, and
what of the futuref The alliance people of
this country are thoroughly aroused and
extremely sensitive touching political cues
tions and methods. This grows out of their
peculiar circumstances and recent educa-
tion. They believe that all effects are
traceable to causes. The impoverished CON
dition OF the masses is not an exception to
this rule. 1t has its cause, and In their opin-
ion can be as clearly defined and as uu-
questionably demonstrated as any other
philosophical proposition. Much thought
and extended education as to the discovery
OF the cause or causes that have led up to
the present condition of the people in this
country, have obtained Cor the last two
years. l admit that the conclusions drawn
may be to some extent strained and mixed
slightly with error, but upon the whole the
causes now assigned by alliancemen every
where are indisputable. They believe that
while many minor missteps on the part of
national and state legislation and political
parties have had more or less to do with the
condition of things, yet the fact remains
