In recent article in Harper's Bazaar, T.
w. Higginson oyerturns the popular idea
that New England is full of 'ssuperfiuous
women" Many people have held to the
notion that the great exodus of the young
men of New England to the West has left
here at home an unusual number of SPIN
sters. The returns of the Massachusetts
census show that this is not SO. The excess
of women in Massachusetts, about sixty-six
thousand in 1880. does not consist largely, as
was once supposed, of the unmarried, nor
yet Of the unmarried or the divorced, but is
almost entirely made up of widows. BY the
last State census of Massachusetts,, the ex-
excess of widows over widowers was 52,9O3,
thus accounting for nearly the whole of the
cess OF womeni over men. This large num-
Der OF widows is explained by the facts that
In the seaport towns among the people who
live by fishing the mortality Of men is very
great, and that in tho State as whole
many widows Of men who went to seek their
fortunes in the West return to the
old nest after the death of their
mates; while many others come 10
the State to educate their children, or if
less happily situated, seek the manufacturing
towns to find support for themselves and
those dependent on them. This tendency of
self-dependent women to seek manufacture
ing towns is so marked that Col. Higginson
deduces the general conclusion that the pres
ence of many surplus women indicates that
State possesses manufacturing industries.
The study of the population of the other
New England States seems to bear out this
theory. Connecticut has 11,131 surplus
women, Rhode Islaud II, All, and New Hamp-
shire $3.50. All these are manufacturing
States; but in Maine, where there are fewer
manufactures, the sexes are almost equally
balanced, there being but 800 more on the fe-
male side; while In Vermont, which is es
sentially an agricultural State, and has,
moreover, suffered severely by the exodus Of
young men to the West, there are actually
/ ,4SS more men than women. These facts
show that while there is surplus of women
In New England. not large one, there is no
superiority of them. They are busy, most of
them engaged in heroic and self sacrificing
work for those dependent ON them

Every monopolist i'm the country, whether
member OF a trust or outside of It, will vote for

Has then President Havemeyer of the
Sugar trust deserted the Democracy If he
has it is truly ungrateful in him, for Mr..

Whitney and Senator Payne along with

mouth, who monopolizes New Hampshire
beer and did the best he could to monopo-

connection with the Democracy? Has Mr..
Arthur Sewall, president of Names greatest
monopoly, abandoned the management OF
the Democratic campaign in MaineP OF
course If none Of the monopolists are going to
vote the Democratic ticket this fall they have
all detached themselves from that party by
this time. We have seen no notice however
ofthese OBJECTIONS in the Argus. The truth is
this talk about the monopolists being unit

The Argus yesterday in its editorial COL
ann lectured the Republican members of the
House for being absent from Washington.
Elsewhere it contained report of a speech
delivered at City Hall by the Hon. John E.
russell. Is not Mr.. Russell member of the
HouseY Is not his place in Washington
Yet he has been perambnlating this State for
some weeks past delivering lectures in the
interest of Democracy and free trade. Why
not lecture him a little?

"Nearly all Democrats" is what Robert T.
Lincoln. who has just returned from Eng.
land, says the British are. But it is noticed
that when Briton gets over here and be-
gins to feel at home, hei quite likely to
become Republican. Both phenomena are
natural enough. A man is naturally at
tracted to the party that promises to do best
for his country.

ACCIDENTS

Early in the morning about e week
ago our town was thrown into great
excitement on account of cries and
screams proceeding from Mr.. Mays
residence, he being absent, which was
created by fire. The root had caught
from n defective fue, but Miss Katie
made her way TO the roof and had the
fire cxtinguishcd when assistance
reached the place. 1t was a cool, de-
liberate act, Tor which the young lady
deserves great credit, as her prompt
action, perhaps, saved the property
from destruction.
