The Globe (Butler organ) of Wednesday
says: The people of the Commonwealth have
for the first time made trial of strength
against the party IN power, and though for
lack of organization have failed, they now
know their strength and will not be banked
again. Bnlldozing on the part of employers
aud the liberal use of money by the Republi-
can State Com mittee was the cause of the re-
| suit Gen. Butler comes out of this fight with
undauDted courage and larger folio wing than
any other man in Massachusetts,, and though
his enemies boast that be will be buried politi-
cally forever, it is mistake to suppose he will
be permanently shelved by the result of this
campaign. Tue r publican party has made
unusually loud cries of reform, but after in
auenranon matters will run on in the old ruts
as usual.
