ELSEWHERE will be found the remarks ol
Congressman Reed of the First District on
the occasion of the presentation Of the statue
of Governor King to the national gallery
His tribute to the memory of Names first
Governor is felicitously conceived, and sd-
miraby expressed. Indeed no speech made
by our representatives in either house that
day was happier in either spirit or form. Its
diction is noble and its sentiment genuine.
Our fathers find their graves in our short
memories, says Sir Thomas Browne, and
sadly tell us how we may be buried in those
of our survivors. These words would serve
as fitting introduction to Mr.. Reeds memo
rial address.

THE savings made by the Democratic
House last session turn out to be slight.
Expenditures were reduced nineteen mill
lions instead of thirty as claimed. Oh
these nineteen millions three-and-a-half were
saved on interest and one-and-a-half on GUS
tom house expenses, with all of which the
House had nothing to do. The deficiency
bills make still further reduction of five
millions, so the House saved but nine mil
lions. Even this reduction has seriously
crippled the public service, and the Demo
Gratis are moving to restore some of the
offices they abolished. Clymer Is working
for the restoration of the ministry to Bolivia,
and many consulates will be re-established.
There was great deal of cry and precious
little wool, except what was pulled over the
peoples eyes, about that economy business.

Hayne and Blaine.

We hope ths statues of Governor Winthrop
and Governor King will not take up the quar-
rel of Massachusetts, as savagely as the Sana-
tors from those two States yesterday felt them
selves moved to do. 1t will 60 more hardly in
that case with the statue tn an 1t yesterday went
with the Senator from Maine; for the sculptor
who has done Governor Winthrop IN marble
has set his venerable head go loosely on his ven
cradle throat that 1t lies, tilted at an angle 10
his huge ruff like the head of John the Bap-
tist on its charger, ready to be flung. like can
non ball at the successful seceder who rent the
province of Maine away from the Massachu-
sets Bay, and has now been rewarded for 1t by
a niche in the American Pantheon. II there
were any Massachusetts, men on the floor Of the
Senate yesterday they must have hung theiv
heads for shame to think how differently Wsb-
ster fought the fight Of the old commonwealth
when Hayne challenged him to the encounter
nearly half a century ago! The case of Massa-
chusettS was no better than 1t was yesterday;
but Webster was skillful enough 10 fight from
behind the barrioades of Bunker Hill. Hoar
aud Dawes rashly rushed out into the open
field of the Hartford Convention, and have
only themselves to thank for it that the hard
hitting Blaine first brought them both TO tho
ground together, and then in most ignomin-
ious manner picked them up again and tossed
them both in the old pine-tree flag as Sancho
was tossed in the inn keepers blanket. OF
course it is evident to the unregenerats mind of
copDerheads and publicans, sinners, that the
performances Of the recent Republican Con-
vention in Massachusetts, which indorsed the
Administration were not wholly absent from
the mind of Senator Blaine while he stood
neatly rubbing the salt of his malice into the
old wounds Of Massachusetts, Federalism.
And if Hoar and Dawes could have kept their
temper they might have escaped at least the
tossing in the blanket. But that is their affair
and his. and it was not in human nature for
the Democratic and Southern Senators who
witnessed this rare sport to refrain from ap-
plauding it. The matter has Its serious side
too. 1t ought to make the most inveserato Sec
tionalist 10 New England see as in a mirror
the ugliness of that spirit in politics which de-
lights in raking up the quarrss of the past
and in keeping old prejudlces alive to breed
new ones from them for partisan use. Perhaps
toe, it may awaken Massachusetts, to sense Of
the secondary position into which she has grad
ualy drifted by confiding her interests to sec
ond rate men. Blaine rhymes we'll enough
with Hsyne. But it is quite clear that Dawes
and Hoar together do not spell Webster.

THE Advertiser says Massachusetts "never
interposed the least hindrance" to the ad-
mission of Maine as State. In 1916 a
majority of the people of Maine voted in
favor of separation, and a convention which
met at Brunswick to count the votes
declared the majority of them to have been
cast for separation. This declaration the
Massachusetts Legislature refused to re.
cognize and Maine was compelled to wait
four years longer before she was admitted tc
