sembled in state convention at Boston
on the 25th ult., placed in nomination
ticket headed by j. q. A. Bracket,

lates the country upon the restorationn
of the republican party to power; com
mends the wise and prudent conduct
of the treasury department; rejoices in
the restoration of dignity and vigor to
the conduct of our foreign affairs; con-
graduates President Harrison upon the
practical wisdom and honest purpose
with which he has dealt with the com
plicated question of appointments, and
pledges the unfaltering support of the
republican party of Massachusetts, in
his efforts TO root out the evil of pat
ronage from politics. Upon the liquor
question, the platform states that the
party will take no backward step.

ANOTHER pretended Christ has APP
peared. A press dispatch from Little
Rock, Ark, states that in the northern
part of Little River and in Sewer
county, the people are wild with excite
ment over the appearance of man
who, like Schweinforth, i'm Illinois, and
Forbes, i'm North Carolina, pretends to
be Christ. The name to this new claim
ant TO the Messiahship is Elan Irwin,
and comes from Red River county,
Texas. The ignorant portion of the
populace is greatly exercised over his
religious teachings He claims his
ability to remove mountains, to drink
poison with IMMUNITY, ward off bullets
and to cure the sick by the laying on of
hands. He annoints infants with oil
and alleges that they become angels.
He says this is his second visit to the
earth, and i'm IA few weeks he will be
known to all as the Christ. His follow
ers are rapidly increasing in numbers,
and in some localities all secular avoca-
tons are suspended, which can but re-
suit in widespread restitution and want
in the near future. The signs of the
times clearly point to an expectancy of
these and kindred delusions, and scrip
ture Matt. XIV as clearly warns
against them.

A BERLIN dispatch of the eth ult.
says that Gen Obroutchetf, the chief of
the general staff of the Russian army,
submitted to the Car last summer a
report urging that a second line of
rails be laid To the western frontier.
In spite of the opposition of the minis
ter of finance the proposal is being ear
ried out. Eight million pounds of rails
and 800 locomotives have been ordered
for delivery in May This measure
completes the strategic network of
Russian railways, increasing their
capacity to mass troops on the German
frontier.

The first republican state convention
held in Mississippi in years assembled
at Jackson, in that state, on Wednes-
day of last week. There were 254 dele
gates present from 60 counties. There
was large sentiment in the convention
opposed to any nominations being made,
but when it came to vote the result
showed 159 in favor and % opposed to
a ticket being placed in the field. Gen.
Chalmers and John X. Lynch fought
hard in favor of making nominations,
saying it would be cowardice not to
make them. a full state ticket was
nominated, headed by James r. Chal-
merS for governor.

NOTWITHSTANDING the fact that but
very little money has been secured for
the worlds fair in New York, they keep
right along talking and making figures
as though it were New York, and not
Chicago, that had 100000 600 in sight.
The subcommittee on sites advocates
the location of Morningside and River
side Parks, with protion of Central
Park, rs most convenient. At least 200
acres will be needed, according to the
ideas of this committee, and architects
are invited to complete for the plans
on the basis of % acres for the main
building, to cost 81 900, 000 20 acres for
machinery hall, TO cost So, 500, 900; 10
acres for an agricultural building, to
cost $3.50, 900; 3 acres for horticultural
building, TO cost $3.50 00 and 8 acres
for an art building, to cost $500, 900.
This makes total area of sixty-fve
acres of buildings, and a total cost of
s., 300, 900. In addition to this, the com
mittee estimate that Is acres of smaller
buildings, for various purposes, will be
needed, making total area of build
ings 80 acres. The subcommittee also
recommend that plans be invited for
an observation tower not less than 800
feet in height, and provided with eleva-
tors, restaurants, etc. The Eiffel tower,
at the Paris exposition, is only 975 feet
in height. All this makes very pretty
reading matter, and we shall expect
soon to learn that at every ferry lead
ing into New York city there has been
placed "a-nickle-in-t he-slot" device for
the accumulation of funds for an enter
prise which New York may dream of
while Chicago is realizing it.

A NEW textile, a Chinese plant known
as rance, is being experimental with
at the Landreths' seed farm, says the
Philadelphia Record. Three acres of
ground was planted last April from
cuttings brought from China 1t is said
that after this plant has been decorti-
Gated, degummed and bleached, it will
produce fibre superior to any other
known vegetable fibre, and occupying
a position midway between flax and
silk. Should these experiments prove
successful and machinery be perfected
for the working of the fibre, it is be-
lieved it will in time produce revolu-
ton in Americas textile industry.

The democratic press of the country
has been fairly seething of late with de-
nunciation of the conduct of the treas
ury department, claiming that Secreta-
ry WINDOWS statement that a large
saving TO the government had been eff
fected was misleading and untruthful.
The whole question was settled and
made plain by the issue few days
since from the treasury department Of
a statement of all the bonds purchased
during the last two years. This state
ment shows that the government is a
sufferer by the excellence of its credit.
1t has to pay considerable sum for
the privilege of paying its debts before
maturity. This amount. however, is
not SO large as the government would
have disbursed i'm interest had the
bonds been allowed TO mature. The
face value of the bonds thus prema-
turely redeemed, within the time above
indicated, is S199, 253, 800. The amount
paid for them was 1921, 53S, 1866. Had
these bonds been allowed To run to ma
turity they would have amounted, with
accrued interest, to S275, 1925, O92. Thus
the saving by these bond transactions
alone aggregates the snug sum of s44,-
2S6, 1876 1t is hoped that this state
ment of the treasury department will
have the effect of quieting the clamor
of the democratic shriekers and give
them "A chance to devote some atten-
ton To the approaching fall elections.

WHAT FOURTH OF JULY MI2A MS.

The New York Mail and Express
called on a variety of people for re-
marks applicable to the Fourth of
July, and Col. T w Higginson made
this strong point:
The thought which most readily
presents itself to my mind on the
Fourth of July is the incompleteness
of a sO-called universal suffrage that
excludes one-half of the human race
by reason of their sex alone.
George w. Gable, ever mindful of
the inequality of rights in the South,
wrote this:
We count the Fourth of July the
birthday of mighty and benelicent
principle ''for the healing of the ma
tons" On that day more than on
any day that ever went before it
mans righteous courage dared give
recognition to the fact that the upper
and the powerful, rather than the
lower and helpless, are the danger
Gus classes, not in city's police, but
in a nations politics. The Fourth of
July stands for the grandest, noblest
effort ever made on a national scale
toward the balancing of political
powers by the equalizing of civil and
political liberty. Invited to make
some one thought Fourth of July
offering, offer this: That equal po-
litical liberty does not and cannot
give equal political power.

MASSACHUSETTS, POLITICS.

The extreme heat of July has little
effect upon the Bay state politicians
and there is considerable activity for
an ''off year" in the republican camp.
Ex-COngressman Grape of New Bed
ford and Lt.-GOv. Bracket are candi-
dates for governor and lively cam
paign has already commenced. Mr.
Grape has some enemies because of
his wealth and Mr. Bracket has al
ways voted against prohibition and
is believer in license. Henry Faxon,
the champion prohibitionist, is flood
ing the state with documents and
urging that the republican party
nominate a temperance man. Says
the Hyde Park Times, Henry Fax
on now sings: Must Bracket be
elected without a warning cry ?
Then 10000 temperance men shall
know the reason why" There are
a number of dark horses in the field
but at this point in the campaign
Mr.. Grape seems to have the inside
track. All this excitement amuses
the democrats very much who pro-
pose to take it easy until fall, nomi-
nate William E. Russell of Cambridge
and then elect hirn-if they can.
