Congressional Candidates.

Nashville American.
There are forty-fve Congressional dis
tricts in the United States in which the
Republicans have no candidates. Most
of these are in the South, Illinois being
the only Northern State in which the
Republicans have failed to nominate in
all the districts, that State having three
districts in which the Democrats have
no opposition. The number of Republi-
can candidates for Congress in the South
is larger than usual, probably as a re-
suit of the Presidents suggestion. There
are Republican candidates in all but two
of the Virginia districts, in all the Ala
bama districts and in all the districts
hut one each in Arkansas. Louisiana and
Kentucky. There are Republican candi-
dates in seven of the ten districts In
Tennessee. while in North Carolina there
are five Republican nominees. In one
district In that State the Republicans
have Endorsed an independent Democrat.
and in the Seventh District they have
done an unusual thing in indorsing the
Regular Democratic nominee. There is
not a Republican candidate for Congress
in Georgia, Florida or Mississippi.
Except in five districts in Nebraska
and one in Kansas where they have fused
with the Populists. there are only six
districts in the country in which the
Democrats have no candidate for Con-
gress. Five of these districts are In
Pennsylvania and one in New York.

University of Georgia.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
The University of Georgia has coming
to it a legacy of between 100000 and
s., OOO, 900. DR.. Charles Mccoy, at one
time member of the faculty of the Uni
versity. bequeathed at his death. which
occurred in Baltimore about twenty years
ago, $4,000 to the institution with the
provision that the sum, which was in
vested in railroad stocks, should be COM
pounded annually at the rate of interest
obtainable until his youngest grandson
should become p years old. At that
time several of DR.. McCoys children
were very young. and it is probable that
the term of years which the condition
embraces will exceed seventy-five years
Treasurer A. L. Hull of the University
has estimated that the amount will be.
at the time the University may claim it,
between S6,0OOOOO and $S.OO0,000 and his
estimate s based upon quite low rate
of interest.

Chicago.

Chicago Telegram to New York Times.
James Foster Fraser, the English writer
and author of THE Real Siberia" has
been publishing letters in The Yorkshire
Post about Chicago. Here are few of
the things he has said
I'm the morning the streets are
crammed with fiabby-faced men. great
proportion corpulent to unhealth!ness. A
man bumps into you. He nevc.' apollo
gizes; time is too precious to waste on
foolishness like that"
when a brisk wind blows you cannot
see across the roadway for gritty dust
which hurls at you like tornado"
THE police-big, porcine bellied slug
gards-know nothing about the control of
traffic"
Chicago is too busy money-making to
attend to civic improvements. Chicago
has a university but most of its profess
sors are freak men who say outrageous,
slangy absurdites to gain notoriety in
the one-cent press. 1t has fine libraries,
But these are a, on the side.
Chicago pc, pc are really on the earth
to make none! And they make 1t. Here
is a town where it is no disgrace to be
a swindler, no disgrace to have been in
prison-provided you still have plenty Of
money"
Young girls pocket every silver spoon
on the table, not secretly, but with a
laugh. To steal spoon on railway
dining car Is a girlish foIble.'

The American Newspaper Directory uses GER
tain signs to denote the relative standing and
merit Of the whole field OF newspaperdom
which comss under Its notice. and one Of these
signs IL The mystic symbol l01 denoting
..xoideu, whish stands for high quality. and
b thus explained:
Advertiser value this paper more for the
class and quality Of its circulation than for the
mere number VI copies printed"
Such papers are credited with single SYM
boi; but there Is a higher grade. according to
this standard authority. which have BOTH
QUALITY AND QUANTITY. and require the
DOUBLE GOLDEN SYMBOL Col to describe
adequately their standing.
The Advertiser has been accorded this
double golden symbol COL and is the only

1t suits the views of some Democrats
to rail at Mr.. Cleveland, but we tell them
that nothing in the future is more abso-
lutely sure than that the Democratic
party will never again come into power
until it gets back to the Democracy of
Cleveland and Tilden-Montgomery Ad-
Vertiser.
The Advertiser, always sound and cour-
ageous, speaks the solemn truth, and
there is much satisfaction in the rehec-
ton that the people who are given to
abusing and villifying the Democrats of
the Cleveland and Tilden stripe are grow
ing smaller and smaller in number and
the prospect is that shortly they will be
limited to Mr.. Bryan and Editor Waiter

One Crying Editorial Need.

We wish that it were possible for us TO

more, we wish it were possible Tor US 10

finding room to reproduce what attracts
them in the daily run through the ex-

space is found, the article has lost its
timeliness and has to be discarded. Again,
striking extracts which are held In this

The method of conducting political
campaigns in Indianapolis is somewhat
different from the style down here. For
example. in The indianapolis Sentinel we
find this question, which may be classed
as pertinent or impairment:
Will any Republican candidate say that
he will, IL elected, be content with his
lawful salary, and not take fees Illegally
as is now being done?
In another place The Sentinel asks the
Republican candidates If they will prom
Use not to loot the treasury If elected.
To virtually ask a candidate if he is a
thief would not be considered proper in

duty to grid at once for the next battle
and go forward to fight It as valliantly as
IL we had never felt defeat. The people
will not abide in their delusion always.
They will awake in due time and when
they do the principles Of true Democracy
will triumph for generation.
That Is the right doctrine for Democrats
the country over. We cannot always
command success in this life, but We
can deserve 1t by doing our whole duty.
Failure this time should only serve as a

1t is but two years to another election,
and preparations for that can be silently
going on. To fight for every position
is our idea of politics, and II we lose
in one campaign the loss Is not to be
taken as evidence that we will continue

so far as editorial needs are concerned,
Is that the mere act of classification takes

its NAV, will automatically sort the
clipping and record its presence in the

What Democratic Victory Means.

LouisVille CONFECTIONERY.
The Democratic Party means the over
throw of the special favor business, and
the bringing of the Government back TO

cannot be achieved in day; or yet In
several wears; but IL Is never too late to
begin a proper thing. Let this Congress

Chairman Campbell of the Democratic
Commute sent out letter over the State
in which he said: The Republicans are
at work and Democrats ought to be stir
red up to come to the polls" This ought
10 go home to every Democrat. There is
no doubt of the fact that the RepubH-
cans are thoroughly organized in Ala

voters. The Democrat who does not vote
today ought to feel ashamed for failing to
do his duty by his Party and his State.

Christmas in the Kindergarten.

1t is great pity that more of the
parents who have children in the kin
dergarten could not have attended the
closing program on Wednesday morn
ing. The decorations of the room were
lovely, "a snow storm that looked
like Il dream snow storm together with
festoons of green and gold stars made
a Inc setting for d Christmas tree in
the center of the room. Around the
tree the children gathered and sang of
Jack Frost Santa Claus and his won
derful reindeer Christmas bells and
also some OF ahe sweeGes. of Christmas
carols. Miss Hond related Twas the
Night Before Christmas and was
listened to with the most fattering in
terest by the little folk. Under the
skillful direction of Miss Bond and
Miss Stoner each child had 4 gift for
their parents of their own work. Little
gifts that money could not buy from the
proud mothers and fathers to whom
the work of the tiny and loving fingers
is unspeakably dear, The gift of the
great Frobel when he gave the kinder
karten idea to little children cannot be
over valued. To give to little children
happy memories to be theirs through
whatever life has in store for them.
To make the trials from spoiled baby
hood into school rules so easy: to give
breeding so naturally that it seems
like the air the children breathe, all
this means giving poetry TO mundane
| life Miss Bond and Miss Stoner are
to be congratulated on the secure place
they have in so many adoring little
hearts and on the success that must
give them we'll merited pleasure.
