who make IL q rule to vote with the Demo

men, and are influential in branding AS false

them for disgracing and degrading the party
which tolerates and screens them.
As long as such men are allowed to belong
to the Republican party, to share its honors
and it's power, and to overrule its action. the
party must be content to bear the responsi-
bility of their conduct. When II will drive
them from its ranks, with the disgrace thew
have earned, It may then complain of the
Democrats for using Republicans to pull thai
chestnuts out Of the FIRE. Bat not till then.

sound Of voices and footsteps were

SUMMER, if we may trust ancient tradition
rather than the evidence of our senses, com
menees with the first day of May, which in
this climate is almost always cold and win
try day. But venerable customs get kind Of
right of prescription" at last, and we must
celebrate the commencement of the warm sea-
son, even if we freeze in the attempt Indeed,
that is just what Our children do, going out
into woods and fields to search for flowers
for isn't it the first day of Mar? They get
cold feet, wet clothing and sickness; and SO,
almost literally, they freeze in the attempt to
give summer a warm welcome.
In Boston they have changed all that
There they get the children together un.1 er
cover of n roof, and give them flowers and
music and good time. Whatever may be
said of some other things which we. get from
Boston, that "Boston notion" is clearly good
one, and we are glad to learn that it is to be
introduced among us. The Park street Sun
day school will offer the children of Portland
the City Hall to dance or play in, and music
20 dance or play by, through the afternoon OF
Saturday, May LIST, and in the evening sup
per, and after supper a brilliant succession OF
good things which are, for the present, we be-
heve, profound secret
Unless all signs fail there is also in course
of preparation an entertainment of some kind
for grown up children on the Friday evening
preceding May Day.
