About the Bog Cranberry

The Maine cranberry crop is immense this
season and the quality is better than ever before
This is the result of increased cultivation more
than of any particularly favorable conditions,
and, as there are numberless bogs, serves to de-
monstrate the fact that there is no limit to the
States productive capacity. The native berry
is of richer, darker color this year, much re-
sembling the Cape Cod variety. They sell for
eight cents a quart, or three quarts for twenty
cents, in the retail shops, and are preferred by
many to the Massachusetts berry, partly because
they are four cents quart cheaper and partly
for the reason that they are less bitter than the
latter and require less sweetening-another
economical property. Both the natives and
Capes are about one-third cheaper than last
year, and cranberry sauce Is to considerable
extent taking the place OF apple sauce. The
producers are paid $4 30 for barrel, supposed
to contain three bushels of these tart red-and-
white little companions OF the Thanksgiving
turkey. Bangor Commercial.

when we take into consideration the

most elementary principles of sanitary
cleanliness are unknown there. The

infected. On the eastern side of the

7OO inhabitants, whose excrenents are
thrown into recesses of tho stairways.

The Republican papers are this year
again biting the same old Prohibition
file in New York and Ohio. The
Gte6e-Democrat is especially bitter to-
ward those it terms the "Judases" OF
the g. o.p. Of the bell-weather of the
water-drinking flock it says yiciously:
Neal Dow is making the pricipal speeches
in New York this year which are expected
to keep Prohibitionists from voting the Re-
publican ticket, SO as to give the State to the
Democrats. He talks in about the same way
that st. John did last year, but we don't be-
lieve he is getting as much pay for 1t. In
matters of this kind there may be several
Judases, but the first one usually absorbs
most of the silver.

The Pennsylvania Democrats have
nominated for State Treasurer Mr.. Con.
rad b. Day, a man who ,fusnishes a
complete contrast to the extraordinary
candidate presented by the Republi-
cans. Mr.. Day is, according to the
leading Republican organ of the State,
the Philadelphia Press, "a business
man of good repute, against whom
nothing can be said, and for whom
nothing of special personal or political
force can be mentioned" Nobody
would be able to say that of the Re
publican candidate, Colonel Matt Quay.
His only business for years has been
politics of the worst sort, and there is
very little in his record which his most
devoted friends would think of speak
ing of as being of ''good repute." Be-
tween him and Mr.. Day No honest
voter in the State could hesitate for q
moment If fitness were the only ques-
ton entering into the decision. AS we
understand it, the Republicans are not
urging Quay's election on the ground
of fitness, but are supporting him be-
cause he is the party nominee, and be-
cause Pennsylvania. being so loyal a
Republican State that it gave Blaine a
majority of so. 900, can be depended up
on to elect the regular candidate, no
matter what his record may be. In
