Toyyae to Succeed Davis.

ST. PAUL, Dec. G.-The Pioneer Press says that it learns from a source whici it believes to be authoritative that Hon
 Charles A. Towne of Duluth has been offered and has accepted the appointment as United States senator to fill the vacan- cy caused by the death of Senator C. k, Davis. The paper says that Governor Lind refused to confirm or deny the statement. but that it's source of inforIn;i- tion is such that it cannot doubt that it is reliable. Mir. Towne was the candidate selected by the Democrats for United States senator in the election four years ago, when Senator Davis was reelected

BETTER TROLLEY SERVICE.
Some Sections of the City Ignored by Holders of Franchise.

waterbury people who have been clamorlng for trolley service the past icN years cannot understand why the ISohnect1cut Lighting and Power com pahJ IS preparing to spend large sums
 ol money laying tracks through sparse lY settled sections of the state while
 more than tWo-thirtlS of the people of this hustling town are sadly in need Of the service. To the ordinary mor- tai II looks strange to see d company ehtleaVofing to get hold of additional territory before it has met the reuuire- mentS of the one it has possession of, very likely the company feels that it mas hold on Waterbury that cannot he unloosened. and. knowing this. it
 has decided to play dog in the manager
 here while engaged in exploring new fields all over the state The law that gives any corporation the right to do business on this plan is manifestly un- fair and should be repealed If the 1 Connecticut Lighting and Power con- | pany wants to use the streets of Wa terbury for trolley purposes, all right.
 but why doesn't it take advantage of it's franchise and give the public the
 service it needs? The city fathers should inquire into this matter and
 see if Waterbury has no redress in the i premises. There is big demand fer the street railroad in all parts of the town
 and city. but. judging by the way the
 company is reaching out into the coun- 1 try. most of the city folks will have been gathered to their fathers and
 their children after them before the
 hum of the trolley will be heard in any
 Of our streets outside the ones the
 company is now operating in.

 part of our little dictionary, namely
 the Lithuanian-E English This part is much larger than the first part. which
 was published last year, namely, the
 English-I lithuanian. It contains the Edeclensions of nouns and the conjuga- tions of verbs it will serve the stu
 dents not only to find the words, but also to practice the Lithuanian Iah- ouara. We hope that it will be uSeful to the priests. who have in thelr par ishps a few families of Iithuanlans,
 also the missionaries who in their mis- sion field meet LithuanianS. Phllolo-
 ~ists of Europe are very fond of study ing the Lithuanian language. because
 they prove it to be the oldest or tie living langua geS. and nearest to san

had finished his rounds he came over to

was willing enough, as he was a sharp lad
and there was nobody else to talk to, and
he went right at things.
"'Do you know he said, that / can tell

is. Now, there's that fellow over there in

can tell him by the way he lets his money
go and the flip style he has when he talks
to people. And that chap over there with
the silk hat on, he's a preacher from a

ask him if you say So

Is it sensible to propose it again as

UPennsylvania's democratic ma
chine is for Bryan. He knows what it
is to be beaten, and so do the Pennsyl-
vania democrats. They resign them
selves quietly to the repetition.-St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.
yWhen Mr.. Bryan is bowling about
the lack of opportunities for the poor
young man he should stop long enough
TO consider his own case. He at least
has found his isopportunity and is making
the most of it.-Albany journal.

making of platform for him 10 stand
upon. OF course, it has never occurred
to the silverite that it would be posi-
bic to choose any other candidate
Cleveland Leader.
rJMr. Bryan continues to talk about
this country adopting ''the money pol
icy of England" 1t is not England
alone that is now governed by the gold
standard, but every country of consc-
quence in Europe. Fully 95 per cent. Of
the exported agricultural products of
the United States are sold in gold
standard countries. And this country,
with nearly $1,0OO,oO0, COO in gold and
$500,000, 900 of silver money, is prac-
tically bimetallist, while every free
coinage country is silver monometallist.

EAdvances Of wages are reported
from various parts of New England and
other portions of the country these
days. The advances did not stop with
the beginning of the new year. In fact,
they are likely to extend all through
1900. This is bad news for the democra-
cy. 1t will tell strongly against that
party in the canvass. Sensible demo
Gratis see this. 1t is noticed that Bryan
is not quite so eXuberant in his speeches
as he was few months ago. He is not
predicting victory now. or course,
neither Bryan nor any other reasonable
man has, at any time in the past two
years, looked for democratic victory in
1900. Certainly no such democrat is
looking for it now.-St. Louis Globe
