American Homing Clubs. A bird from
which record is desired must wear

seamless band. They arc furnished
both by the league and federation upon
the application of any fancier, whether
he be n momber of n club affiliated with
the central body OK not.
Upon the band are stamped tao
birds number, the year it was hat oled
and the initial of the owner. Tho
band is slipped over tho foot soon a.

No names are called in either the let
ter or editorial, but the two principal cam
dates, as is well known, are Gen. FitZhugh
Lee and Thomas 5. Martin. The latter has
been connected with railroad for many
years as counsel.
The editorial, among other things says:
I'VE are informed that of a contribution
made by certain of the railroads, intended
for the campaign fund of the executive
committee for legitimate expenses, not one
half ever reached the chairman, but was
dispensed by this subordinate railroad Of
fetal in furtherance of the candidate for
the United States Senate of his personal
choice, and that this was done in disregard
of the wishes, If not the direct orders, of
his superiors."
Continuing the editorial says: 1T will be
interesting to learn from this subordinate
why he failed to deliver all the funds to
the chairman of the democratic party, and
whether he intended that any one receiving
from him any part of that fund should be-
leve that 1t was given in the interest of
