David S. Jordan, professor of Natural Sciences has beeii elected President of the State University In succeed Dr. Moss, who lately resigned to save himself from removal for immoral practices. Prof. Jordan is only 33 years old, but has acquired a |iiational reputation as a scientist.

We are earnestly in favor of the Nicaragua treaty. A ship canal at Tehauntepec, built, o.vned and controlled by this nation, will be a practical continuation of the American sea coast clear around to the Pacific ocean, and be a grand thing for American commerce and American jprestige. We have lots of “surplus revenue” and the ship canal will be a good thing to spend it on. The weather since our last issue . has been of a most decidedly wintry character. The thermometer lias kept in the vicinity of zero pretty constantly, and on Thursday night of last week, got down as low as 25 below. On Sunday night it was about 14 below . A considerable amount of snow has fallen daring the week, and a heavy storm which began Tuesday evening is still prevailing at this writing (Wednesday morning.)

Their mercantile and official population is on the t way to New Orleans in large numbers and the building they have put up, and the exhibits they are: making on the grounds, prove their, deep interest beyond the .shadow of a doubt. And when ; we reflect that, as the announce-' jinent states with telling brevity, there are sixteen exhibition build-, jings, ninety acres of space; under cqver, and that all this .marvelous display of the beautiful, the. qseful, the antique and the modern,, will take place in a . winter seaspu wherein flowers and fruits are abupdant on the streets and the aijr is fu}l of sunshine and perfume, wq. <?unnot but believe that everyone who possibly can,; .will take advantage of the cheap offered by the rail-; $f a ySi and see, and be a part of,, mistreat event of the century.
