WHO'S YOUR CANDIDATE? Today’s nominations brought out an unusual number of capable can didates. \ 7ith hai dly an except ion, any o" the nominees would discharge the dpi;::: ■ r the oiTices with credit, and it will bo difficult for the aver age fail -minded student to discrimi nate in marking his ballot. It is un fortunate that such a large share of able and deserving aspirants must news!-ai ily be disappointed, as with forty-.£0ur candidates for fifteen of fices, but -'i i per cent of tlie ambition can be satisfied. However, the re deeming feature of election at the University is that though politics is what one might call intense, the ex citement soon subsides and few of the unsuccessful ever cherish their disappointment and allow political defeat to permanently peeve their dispositions. The earmarks of the finished politicians are fundament il buoyancy and essential optimism, and next Wednesday the 29 “also runs” should remember that, they still have hosts of friends, and that many a great man’s career began in apparent failuie. Meanwhile, the campus will be literally infested with political b ; and we'll nil enjoy a week of free smoking. OKEHON t!
