TIA New HAMPSHIRE CANvAss.-The As
ISOLATED press agent at Concord balances the
political prospects in New Hampshire as fol-
lows: o IS a. .>'4 f.i roe
The Republicans claim that their canvass
shows that they shall elect their candidate for
Governor, Mr.. Straw, by the people, have
majority in the House and carry the Senate by
one or two majority, that the ELECTION of last year
was no true test of their strength in the State,
but that they allowed it to 60 by default, that
the defeat was due not. to popular sentiment
but to apathy and discussions in their own
ranks, caused in part, by unpopular snomina-
tons. fa
On the other hand the Democrats are equally
confident of success and claim that they shall
re-elect Governor Weston by the people, have a
working majority in the House, and elect six
Senators and defeat choice in one or two other
districts. They also claim three of the council
lors, and that they shall carry Merrimack, Bel
KNAPP, Carroll, Grafton and Coos Countless
They argue that the result of the last year was
due to the disgust of majority of the people
with the management of State and national aft
fairs and claim that the same causes exist that
existed then, but to a greater degree in national
affairs and that there is no more harmony in
the Republican ranks than last year. - : -
There is an array of speakers in the field and
more are to come.

3 THE large majority by which the Maine
Senate passed to be engrossed the bill con-
ferring the right of suffrage on women in the
Presidential election is most encouraging.
The fifteen affirmative votes were those OF
Chaplin, Dunning, Fletcher, Foster of Ken
nebec, Hadlock, Kinks, Humphrey, Irish,
Kennedy, May, Mcclellan, Nickels, O'Brion,
Philbrick and Weber. Seven more votes in
the House would have given this important
measure a passage, and Maine would have
had one more claim to be known as ''the Di-
rigo State" Among the Al members of that
body who voted in favor of removing the
present odious discrimination against their
wives and sisters, we are glad to find Mr.
Holden of this city. Knight and Fessenden
voted with the majority, and Trefethen's vote
is not recorded. Barker, the poet, Bliss,
Carleton, Hamilton, Lebroke, Perkins, Perry

seen that women have some of the ablest men
in the State committed to their cause.

GROWTH OF RAILRoADs.-In 1889, when the
Western States had but A miles of railroad,
those of New England had 800, and the Middle
States had 1,463 Twenty years later the West
had 400 miles more than the New England and
the Middle States combined Now the same
States have $4,000 miles to 1900 miles in the
Middle and New England States. To these
Western States, for the year 1871, must be add
ed the Pacific States, Colorado, Nevada, and
Utah. with their 1851 miles, and the result
shows the vast preponderence in railway mile
age of that portion of the Union. In the
Southern States.the mileage is 1900. But in
all the Union, Colorado exhibits the most mark
ed progress in railway construction Two
years ago there was not mile of railroad in
Colorado; now $50 miles are laid, and Denver
is the center for five railways, and more COM

OUR paragraph "from the Argus'' in rela-

stated to be by way of Illustration of the
grossest kind of absurdity. But some of
that gentleman's friends,-we wish we could
respect their intellgence-have chosen to be-
lieve that genuine charges of improper con-
duct were made against him. Nothing could
be further from our intention. We suppose
there is not man in Maine whose private
character is farther above suspicion than Mr..
KimbalPs. 1t was on that very account that
we selected his name as offering the best OPP
portunity to illustrate the absurdity of the
