WHAT Mr.. WlsE's COURSE IN
OlcATES.

In his efforts to arrange for joint
debates with Hon. william "A. Jones
Mr.. George helms Wise. the Repub-
lican candidate for Congress in this
district. does not seem 10 have dealt
altogether fairly with his opponent.
Although he has requested the Demo
cratic nominee to furnish him with a
list Of his speech-making engagements
ESPECIALLY those which MIR. Jones will
agree to share with his opponent. Mr..
Wise has not invited the former TO
share a single engagement with him,
At Glouscester Court House and a,
Eastville, recently, Mr.. Iopes. in &c
spcnse to challenges for Joint debates,
shared his platform with Mr.. Wis.
and gave the latter the privilege OF
addressing the crowds. which had
assembled under the auspices Of the
Democratic organizations. Judging
from a letter from Mr.. Wise TO MI.
Jones' published in this paper weeh
ago. the Republican candidates ex'
poets this to be order OF things
Throughout the campaign. He asks
the congressman for his campaigning
schedule, but says nothing whatever
about q schedule Of his own.
Mr.. Jones has complied with the
requests. and in only one instance has

at the request Of party leaders. fol
the particular purpose Of forming 8
