Doctor BOtdrsd0e's Impressions
Of Furnaas U,sSVerstty.

~ HuEUetSS C"sC0TSetB.
Rev. j. II. Boldridge, d. D.,
has returned from Greenville,
where he attended the commence
ments of Furman University and
the Greenville Female College.
He is greatly interested in the
work of these two institutions
and especially in that of Furman
University. We obtained from
him the following:
The Furman University ses-
sion which has just closed has
been an unusually prosperous
one. The attendance has been
large. The number on the roll
reached two hundred and forty
three. The character of the work
done was satisfactory in high
degree. l had occasion to look
somewhat closely into affairs
there and | was really surprised,
and agreeably so, at the improve
ments which have already been
made and which are now in prog
ress. The social element which
has been such a power in Wake
Forest college and many other
institutions of learning, has been
skillfully introduced to the great
advantage and development of
the boys. The citizens of Green
vile are acting very generously
in their kind considerations of
the students in their midst. The
degree Of Master of Arts was con-
ferred upon two students, the
degree of Bachelor of Arts was
conferred upon ten students,
Bachelor of Science upon two.
This is a good showing. The
students have worked hard, have
been orderly and respectful. and
have been widely interested in
Y. M. 9. A. and other Christian
work.
The school of "Oratnry and
Expression" under the charge of
Prof. Currie deserves g. ecial
mention. One of his ST., .onts
has taken three medals and is a
candidate for more. Plans for
better work in this school are on
hand. The honarary degrees

Tallahassee, Fla, Sept. lit is not
long ago that some misguided newspa-
per man in this state took 1t upon him
self TO urge the advisab ility of having
what he described as some healthy OPP
position TO the Democratic party here"
The advice was altogether superfiuous.
The Democratic party in Florida is so
constituted as to carry within itself all
the explosive material required, and
the two factions-corporation and anti
corporation-into which it is now di
vided, may be depended on to supply
all the excitement necessary, without
any outside assistance from the shat
tered local fragments of the Republi-
can party.
All this is apropos of ]. N. c. Stock
ton, the Jacksonville banker politician.
Mr. Stockton-who is, by-the-way, a
very little man of infinite resource and
energy-is a man who does things"
and one of the things he has recently
done has been to announce himself as
a candidate for the United States SEN
ate, in opposition to the Hon. James P.
Taliaferro, the present Incumbent.
Two years is long time to wait, and
there are those who believe that Mr.
Stockton has made a mistake in open
ing his campaign thus early. This,
however, remains to be seen. At all
events, his move has drawn the fire
of the opposition, and already the dig
nified and conservative Times
IN.tZ l. \
its heavy guns and is stirring up the
embers of the old Call Contest in
search of destructive ammunition.
1t is charged that Mr. Stockton
seeks to revive a WORKOUT issue, and
that the pallid spectre of what, in
some quarters, is known as "Callism''
is to be revived for political purposes
only. To a certain extent this is true.
Former Senator Call doubtless de-
rived his strength from the idea he
representative was popularity be-
lieved to stand for the plain people"
against what is popularity known
as corporate encroachments." I'm
just and illogical as 1t may be, 1t is
useless to deny the force of that pro-
test. 1t buoyed Call up through a
sea of troubles, and there are many
who believe that it will serve MIR.
Stockton's turn equally well; and,
moreover, that the Jacksonville man
is absolutely sincere in his opposition
to the corporations in politics..
II must be remembered that this
senatorial plum is to be awarded two
ye3rs hence, not in a convention, not
in the joint assembly of the legisla-
ture, but in a plain, everyday. free
for-alf' primary. Naturally enough,
Mr.. Stockton's friends construe this
condition as one altogether in his
favor. Senator Taliaferro, on the
other hand, has made re-
cord in Washington that many
feel should insure his re-
election. Both policy and
precedent" as his friends put it, justi-
fy his retention in the Senate; for
never before have the prospects for
deep water for Jacksonville been so
promising. Never before have the APP
proprlations for Florida been so many
or so liberal.
In the meantime the politicians are
beginning to ask themselves this ques-
ton; will Gov. Jennings run for the
United States Senator" No man can
