tains mass of matter on local and general
subjects. The almanac and political regis
ter of the Chicago Daily News is unusually
rich in election statistics and among its
special features is discussion of the silver
question. with interesting figures. The
Brooklyn Daily Eagle issues an almanac
that gives fund of information about the
great community. The Tribune almanac
has been one of the standard reference
books for years, and the 80 issue is fully
up to the standard set in the past. A spe-
cial feature is a collection of the political
platforms of states for 1S9i-9:,. The Balti-
more Sun almanac is, usual, full of eX-
cellent matter. and the facts and figures
relating to Wasl1ington's ne:gnbor are of
special value Philadelphia is represented
by three alnlanacs from the Times, Ledger
and Record. respectively. The Providence
Journal has long been recognized as an as
Economical authority, and this lends an
additional interest to its annual almanac

good reading.
