A Bowdoin student writes that eight Of the
Bowdoln faculty are Republicans and for
protection, and four are Democrats and free

One of the most important influences that
have been invoked in aid of the Republican

prominent women who have labored for the
advancement Of woman's position Industrial

as party, is always identified with pro-
gress, presents the most helpful influence to-
ward the achievement Of their aims, and the
temperance attitude Of the party has estab-

cure the support Of women for Harrison and
Morton will now be made, and the Woman's
National Republican committee has issued
circular giving full Instructions for the con-

headquarters of the committee are at No. "a
West Fourteenth street. New York, where
all trequired information can be obtained.
