As Democrats who wish to be consistent, appeal to
your patriotism and sober to oppose the
reelection of Benjamin Butler. During all his restless
nOtorety as Republican politician after his deserOn OF
the Democratic party, he chiefly conspicuous in
pressing measures the most OdOus 10 con-
stitutona Democracy and urging every most Extensively
partisan policy His open hostility, however, Is
harmless compared with his pretended friendship. Caring
nothing for party principle he subOrdnates every pub

again elected, the Democratic party OF Massachusetts,
would be held responsible for his administrative acts and
cccentrctes. We cannot hesitate 20 declare that In

feat Of General Butler and urge all Democrats to join
with us In such action"

lake water has been greatly lowered.
The bealthfulness Of the region Is al
tested bv the fact that labOrers engaged
I'm the work have had little or no sickness.
The canal Is y feet wide and 81 feet
deep. Along the canal and the borders Of
