FRIDAY, AUGUST 3, 1900

The Congressional Coniesi.

Mr. Fred H. Williams of Brookline publicly announces his candidacy for the Republican nomination In the 11th Con gressional District. Early in the year there were several names mentioned as probable candidates for this nomination -among them being ex- Mayur Curtis and Hon. W. W Davis of Boston, Hon. William H. Cook of Milford, Hon. Frank W. Darling of Hyde Park, and Colonel Edwin V. Mitchell of Medfield. Wa un darstand that all of there gent emen bave withdrawn from the contest, and po far as can be ascertained now acqui- esce in the nomination of Mr. Powers, the Newton candidate. There can be no question but that there is a very general sentiment among the representative Re- publicaus of this district in favor of giv- ing the nomination to a Newton man this year. They recognize the fact that Newion is tha ouly city located entirely within the limits of the district, that the Republicans of this city hava always giv- en loyal support to and substantial ma- jorities for the party ticket in the yeara gone by, and that it haa bean a very long period since the Congressional candidata was named from Newton. Thera is no locality in the entire district that would he more likely to recuguiza this sentiment than the lown of Brookline, Congress man Spisene, wbo has represented us at Washington during the past four years, is a citizen of Brookline, and his first nomination, in 1896, was greatly assisted by the withdrawal of ex-Mavor Cobb from the cubstest in the interest of tha Brooklina candidate.

Tha nomination of Mr. Candler of Brookline, In 1888, was brought about In the convention by Newton delegates who had been originally pledged to the support of Levi C. Wade and Samnel L. Powers, and who after a few ballots thraw their votes for the Brookline can- didate and mada his nomination possible. Mr. Candler will no donbt cordially bear evidenca tu the loyal support given him in a very close contest by both Mr. Powers and Mr. Wade of the stump. and by tha Newton votera on election day. If we mistake not Brooklina has bad tha Congressmen 16 years out of the last 30, and that during that period not less than four of ber distinguished citi- zens have represented the district in Congress. During the past 12 years tha Republican nomination has not been ontaide of Brookline except when it was given to General Draper ja 1892 and 1894; in other words, from 1588 to 1900-12 yeara-a Brooklina citizen han repre- sentad us In Congress eiglit yaars, or two thirds of the entire period. Cader these circumstancea we ara not raady to believe that the Republicaus of Brouk- line «Ill orge the nomination of a Brouk. line candidate in the coming convention, While it is true that no particular lo cality is entitled to the nomination, nevertheless it is fair to assume that there ara men lu all parta of the district able and worthy to represent the people in congress, Mora than that, there las been a somawhat well arttled policy in Massachusetts to recognized locality in the matter of nominations. We believe that thera is a general sentiment in the district this year in favor of giving thia nomination to Newtou, and we imagine that the Brookline Republicans will very acquienca in that by reason of the cor- dial relationa which have existed bet weeli the Republicaua of Newton and those of Brookline in years Kone by .- Newton Graphic.

BOW LEGS STRAIGHTENED.

Indianapolis Man Submita lo Painful Surgical Operation to Correet Deformiry.

Lewis Hoen, aged 24. will leave the St. Joseph hospital in Logansport, Ind., in about ten days, having almost entirely recovered from the effects of a singu- lar operation for the correction of how legs. He went months ago from ln- dianapolis. Shortly after his arrival he approached several local surgeons and atated that he was extremely een- aitive and when in society was morti- filed by his legs, that were extremely bowed, and he wanted them straight- ened.

At first the surgeona refused, bul Hoen showed a liberal supply of money. and sisled that if ibe Logansport sur- geons did not want to do it he wonld go elsewhere. The surgeons agreed to perform the necessary operation. and the tibia of each leg was broken ten weeks ago, and the limbs were placed In plaster paris casts for aix weeks. He bore the pain stoically. 11 la rumored that he is in love with a girl who objected to his curvature of the llmha, but this Hoen denies. When he leaves the hospital be will be an inch taller than when he entered. as The points of the hones when broken were separated that distance to allow new growth of bone in reuniting.

GIVEN RARE PLANTS.

Annual Compliment Paid to Con- gressmen by Government.

One of the many choice attentions the government pays to congressmen is the gift of a bundred rare plants every year. As this is the favorite season for selecting them, the employes nt the botanicul gardens are busy packing them for shipment. As a representa- tive or senator xeleets his proper quota they are tuken up and packed in wooden boxes for shipment. The packing- rooms are now filled with these boxes, labeled for all parts of the L'nited States, The wary Scotchman who hus charge of the gardeus is particular to cast his pearls where their real value will be known, hence his exceeding care in having his cherished treasures- those nourished and cared for under his own hund-go only to those who recognize their great value and appre- ciate them.

and The custom of seading palms flowering plants to the homes or apart- meuts of members to use in decoration at large social functions is now almost a thing of the past. It was found that the greenhouses were often left almost empty, and the damage done to the plants by carrying them about tbrougb freezing weather was irreparable. Be- sides, it engendered much hard . feel- ing, as the order had to be filed with the superintendent far ahead of the en- gagement.

session are being packed the hothouses look bare and uninteresting after tbe loss of the many thousands of plants this old custom entails. When the cost of labor, material and expeases of mak- ing the boxes and other expenses are considered, it does not appear in the light of a mean gift to members ir either house.
