oIney and the Presidency.

In response to an invitation from
prominent Memphis democrats. men,
bers of the club formed TO promote
the candidacy of Richard Olney of
Massachusetts. for the presidency,
urging him TO deliver an address
there, Mr.. Olney has sent letter in
which he expresses pleasure and APP
probation of the favorable senti-
ments of the club. and says:
Not being a candidate for the
presidency | cannot, of course, en-
courage the formation of the pro-
posed club. For the same reason.
and because my appearance at Mem
phis in answer TO the invitation would
inevitably be misconstrued into n
desire TO be candidate, in spite of
all disclaimers. ! must ask to be eX-
cused from delivering the address in
question"
In Boston friends of Mr.. Olney do
not hold that his Memphis letter
takes him out of the presidential
race. 1t would be unwise, they de-
calre. for Mr.. Olney to announce his
candidacy thus early.

Quite an extended interview with

up this way have in the lower house

over the isthmian canal proposition
appeared i'm the Washington Times of
Wednesday-the day before the vote
was taken. In the course of il he
said:
Il am in favor of the enactment
of legislation that will ultimately Sc
cure for the people of the United
States an isthmian canali and such
legislation should be enacted at the
present session of congress.
Il am confident that the people
throughout the length and breadth of
the country desire il, and unless il is
secured without delay il will be re-
garded as derelictiOn of duty on the
part of the representatives of the
people in both the upper and lower
houses of congress.
''As to the route. that is question
for experts; but l believe that the
problem can be successfully solved
by congress. There are strong argu-
ments in favor of both the Nicara-
guam and the Panama routes, but
am inclined to believe that the Mica
raguan route is the best. because il
is nearer TO the United States and
would more greatly inure to our

Who is the Creditor?

The state of Illinois owes someone
$4,000. says the. Washington Post.
Hidden somewhere, stored away
probably or perhaps kept as fancy,
are bonds, canal script and internal
improvement warrants equivalent to
about $4,000. If these should be
found and presented the state would
pay them gladly and square the bal
ance sheet. Except this sum the
state owes not one cent. 1t is com
pleteIy out of debt. Such has been
its condition since 1879. At that
time there was about $4,000 of in
debtedness that had not been pre-
sented for payment. \ call was
made for it. but very little responded.
BY degrees. however, it got down to
about $4,000, where it has remained
since 1895, when payment of $1,000
was made.
At that time Congressman Springer
found thousand dollar bond. Some
one had asked him if it was worth
anything, and he sent it to the state
auditor. He looked it up and found
that it was good. But in order to get
the money the legislature would have
TO be petitiOned for the appropria-
tion. 4 bill was presented and pass
ed, and the bond with interest to the
time it was first called in was paid
off. The rest of this $4,000 is prob
ably in the possession of people who
do not know its value.
Each year the auditor in his re-
port calls for this paper that he may
arrange for its payment. Mean
while it goes into the report year
