The reason for the date Of Congress
sional eieetions-the first Tuesday after
the first Mondays often asked, bu;
there are very few, who have charge of
the camp lign. who are able to answer it.
Capt. Thomas II Mckee, the journal
clerk of the House, explained that the
controlling reason for the date, in the
manner fixed, vas 30 prevent an election
falling on the first of the month. That.
of course, is busy day for many men.
Bills fall due then and commercially the
LIST is always the busiest day in every
month. The language used to designate
the date makes it impossible for the
election to come earlier than the End of
the month. and that woull be only
when the first day of the month happens
to be Monday
The reason given applies more strictly
to the date of Presidential elections, for
Congress has prescribed that date alone
The States elect their Representatives to
Congress any day they please. as is
shown by the examples ofOregOn, hold
ing Congressional elections in June, and
Maine and Vermont holding Congress
sional elections 10 September. However,
Congress has power to fix the date for
Congressional elections, although it has
never been exercised The November
date was originally Fixed by Congress
for Presidential elections, and gradually
the States have agreed upon it to prevent
the expense and Inconvenience of hold
iag two elections in the same year, As
the date is most convenient for State
elections in Presidential years, it has
likewise been chosen for other years for
the sake Of uniformity. Not SO many
years ago number of the States held
their own elections on different dates.
often widely divergent. The fixing of
the date for Presidential elections in
November is also said to have been
deemed necessity by the trainers Of the
law to insure the delivery Of the returns
iu Washington in time for the official
count before the Senate. 10 the ear
lier days Of the republic, when travel
was much sloEer. it was necessary to
hold the election earlier than might be
necessary at present Il was desirable,
also, to hold the elections before the
assembling Of Congress. which is ixed
by the Constitution as the Grst Monday
in December.

There is no effort to conceal the
scarcity Of funds on the part of Dem

clerical work there this summer has
been performed evenings by volunteers
from The departments and elsewhere. Il
is said shat there have been times when
there wusu't enough money on hand to
pay pos sage 90 all the matter that the
committee wanted to send cut. No

iiean headquarters. but the clerks there

The present campaign has narrowed
down to one issue; whether we shall

Ia other words it is The campaign Of
1896 over again. Democratic politicians
may seek to disguise it as they will,

to admit Of question. Cummings the
Democratic candidate for Congress in
this Con ressional District has SO far not
