Chicago. Nov. 9.-Five and probably
six congressman have been gained in
Illinois by the Democrats, and the next
congressional delegation from this state
is likely to be evenly divided. IL Demo-
Gratis and IL Republicans. 1t is pos
sible for the Republicans TO have 10 of
the % congressman, as ali the returns
are not Yet in. but the indications are
fer an even split on the delegation. The
entire Republican state ticket is
elected by about $4,000 plurality. In
Cook county the vote has been very
close. the Republicans carrying the
county and the Democrats the city OF
Chicago. The Democratic plurality in
the city is about 5000. and the Re-
publican plurality about the same in
the county

APPEALED TO :
THE PRESIDENT.
ASK FEDERAL INTER-
FERENCE.
Notification of the Laws
in North Carolina.
THE GOVERNMENT ALL-P0WERFUL
ABROAD AND P0WERLESS
AT BONE.

WAsHTE GroY, Nov. 5-The following
address was presented TO the President
to-day by q committee:
ITO the President OF the u, s.:
Sir-At meeting of citize ns from
many portions of the United States,
held under the auspices Of the Lvceum
of the Second Baptist Church, Wash
sngton, ID. c., on Tuesday evening, the
1st inst, d committee was appointed
to present 10 you the situation in
North Carolina, and to ask you to ex
ercise your good offices to preserve the
peace and to maintain constitutional
government in all portions of our COM
anon country.
NOT AS POLITICIANS.
I'VE do not come to you as politi-
clans, seeking some partisan end, nor
simply as colored men aroused by the
passions OF the hour, but, sir. we come
as econ smists, as students OF history
and the science OF government; as pa
triots zaaIous of our country's veal,
and as American citizens, to ask you,
the Chief Executive of this great ma
ton, and Com Chief of the
land and naval forces, to exercise ali
constitutional power in you invested TO
protect every American citizen in the
enjoyment OF his constitutional rights.
THE REIGN OF TERROR.
The present situation in thes state
of North Cerolina is but an act in the
series of the reign Of terror inaugural
ed 1873. to wrest from the legitimate
government the state of North Caro-
lima and to nullify the recent amend
ment to the constitution CT the United
States by resorting first to mob VIC
Ience and then to sUbterfuge IN order
TO deprive citizens OF their right to
vote and hold iii 20.
1.-THE lawless reign was first inaugu-
rated in the State OF Louisiana and
step by step it has worked its way
eastward and northward, until it now
borders on the State OF Virginia, and
will soon Overshadow the national
capital, and ere long the late slave
holder will call his slaves at the base
of Bunker Hill.
has GONE FAB ENOUGH.
The thing has gone far enough.
This nation Is now dealing with new
prcblems In establishing governments
IN the islands OF the sea and We do not
wart our usefulness impaired before
the eyes of the nations OF the world by
the charge, even though It be but toll
erably we'll founded, that We have only
a quasi-constitutiOnal government in
the United States. The present situa-
tion is @ graye one, and the attitude of
kawlsss men ia the State of North
Carolina will be fsr-reachIng in its ef
tests unless it is .counteracted by the
strsng arm OF the government"

Fusion Wins In Minnesota.

st. Paul. Mimi, Nov. 9.-Three hun
bred and seventeen precincts out of
1865 outside OF St. Paul and Mime
apolis, give Eustis. Rep, 24,262; Lind,
fusion, 1904 At this rate Eustis would
lead Lind outside the twin cities by
probably 5.00O but Lind is far ahead
in the two cities. Much fuller returns
are necessary to decide the election,
though all indications favor Lind for
governor. Little or nothing has been
heard from the rest of the ticket. 1t
seems TO be now only a question of
I-ind's majority. as his election Is prac-
tically conceded. The Republicans have
elected congressman in the First, Sec
ond, Third. Fourth. Fifth and Seventh
districts. with the Sixth in doubt The
Democrats have probably also elected
one of the supreme court judges.

WoIcott's Plurality 10000.

Boston, Nov. 9.-After a canvass
without state issues and confined al
most entirely to four congressional ois-
tricts and a few local districts, the Re-
rublicans have again carried Massa-
chusetts and elected Roger Wolcott
governor for the fourth time, as well as
the entire state and legislative ticket by
safe maJorites. Governor Wolcott's
plurality over A. b. Bruce. his Demo-
cratic opponent. will be about 20, 900. or
$1,000 less than his lead last year. AS
in the past two years, Wolcott sue
ceeded in carrying Boston, which is
usually a Democratic city The Re-
publicans lost two, il not three con-

THE AIM OF A UNIVERSITY EDU-
CATION.

During the week just past the Uni
versity OF Washington graduated a
class OF thirteen young ladies and gen.
tlemen, who are supposed. in general
and are now prepared to enter fully
upon the broader and fuller duties OF
life's mission. In the line Of equipment
and competent instructors the Cniver-
atty OF Washington is fully abreast Of
the times. and It is hence no gratuitous
supposition to presume that the men,
hers OF the class OF 'ss have had every
facility towards fitting themselves for
whatever calling In life they have elect
ed 10 enter.
The steps heretofore taken have been
merely preparatory for the actual du-
ties of manhood and woman hood, and
1t yet remains for each TO demonstrates
that the lessons learned and truths in
cuicated during the student days were
well assimilated and are now ready to
show forth in the ripened fruit Of pro-
gressive citizenship and a concentrated
ambition TO justify the wisdom OF the
expense and care lavished so freely by
the state in their education. The grad
yates, IL taught anything at all, have
been trained 10 think. and above all
things else theirs is henceforth the
duty 10 carry this faculty into such
fun play as 10 enrich the entire circle
of their influence with nobier and
broader scope of ideas and TO aid I'm
quickening the intellectual character OF
all v:th whom they may be thrown in
contact.
There is no law OF human nature
whose decisions are more pronounced
than that unused faculties tend 10 de-
cay. with its converse. that employed
powers mature towards their complete
perfection. These students have been
endowed with the richest Of all in
horitances-the training OF their men,
tai faculties. In the broadest concep-
ton Of human thought there is no aris-
tocracy superior TO the aris,ocracy OF a
wei.-trained intellect that has Its foun-

from a dearth Of new ideas. and can
