Anyhow right here is the place for It, As this town has gone Into the convention holding business. Thlt 11 A better place than any other and It gives satisfac tion. On found that the old opposition cry that we are not centrally located Is false, as the Iron horse In this day has more to do with mi. king towns central tbaa nn accidental geographical position, flprlngfield's railroad systems are of the high grado order and are operated by nineteenth century men, who know how to cut down distances and Urn. They have made Sprlngoeld just aa bandy a place In which to bold a convention os any other town.

It urns out now that tUo two Missouri wonii who were quoted as saying that IV.y intended to give $700,000 to hlc.tgo university were Th)t iindi'i'Mtocd aud their pluu Is to found coll' go In M.v.ouil in honor of their mother. When tho announcement waa first mad.j that tho money was to go to the Chicago university many of the newo papers of tho ttiuo took occasion to all the attention of tha ladies to their apparent luck of pntrtotlnni for their own commonwealth, which has 40 utrucsllnc colleges, where the grent um of money might oe placed to better advantage than with tbe Chicago university, which Is to accustomed to receiving big gift that the addition of a mere million or eo would have little influence one way cr the other. Now seem that there wt never any Intention to give thla money, which ou Investigation turnt out to be much loss than to Chicago, but the plan la, to establish college outright somewhen? In Missouri. The amount of money the ladies hav la not exactly known, but It la Ulisved to be connldarahlw. and those who are acquainted with the making of colleges fully understand that a great sum la absolutely necessary fn thla day to tart an Institution for higher educa tion on the highway to success.

The Ft Loots Republic, la Its report of the proceedings of tba iut Democratic committee, said: "Tber Is a difference of orlnlnn as to whether ther ibcold be a fusion on the state ticket, and.

Judging from those who at tended yesterday's mooting, the sentl Mrnt Is not favorable to splitting up the State ticket with the Populists, and It dues bot appear that an? considerable no her of TopulUis are expecting as much.
