The SITUATION.

No campaign within the memory of
the Oldest inhabitant opens with gres ter
premise of exciting incidents than does
the impending conflict of 1900. The
issues are clearly drawn, but the two
great parties do not present a solid
frent of sharp contrast as has been true
Of former years. There will be an un-
precedented era of politically recasting
shifting and adjusting in order that
the masses may be able to follow the
flag which stands for their chosen prin-
ciples. The situation calls for a degree
of caution and coel. .headedness and
partisan courage that will tax the
resources of our wisest statesmen and
economists.
On form, the republican party
ought to win. We believe it will win.
Always oontending for national pres.
tige, protection to labor, exalted citi'
zsnship and the rights OF capital,
bringing prosperity and plenty in the
wake OF democratic poverty and incom
potency, the republicans make a plea
for retention that cannot fail to be
heard By white men and black men,
North and South, and be met by q
favorable response. The party in
power has COPIED successfully with more
grave problems than has fallen to the
lot of few administrations since the

The brosd culture of the man, the
wide range Of his thought, and rare
conception of the necessities of his con.

The work of teaching admits of such in

work beyond the power of any hui

so many studies that there is not time for
them to learn any one thing thoroughly.
one of the educational hobbies which
worked tribulation to Washington teach

tory fad. They were required TO give ele-

Not much came of this requirement eX-
cept that butterflies and birds eggs were
