The interest In the Massachusetts cam
palgn is phenomenal in year when no
national election is pending. The registra-
ton In Boston is only 81 less than In tne
presidential year and 1t is more than GUY
larger than it was last year. Vi tne aodi-
tions just about half, according to the Dos
ton Journal, come from sure Republican
uarters, which would seem to indicate that
RusselI's Boston plurality is not going to
rise above that OF last year.

Secretary Foster, in his speech in Ohio,
showed very neatly and very conclusively
that the gloomy predictions of the Demo-
Gratis that the Mckinley bill would destroy
our foreign commerce had all been disproved
by the results. Instead of a decrease of our
commerce there has been notable increase.
There never was measure Of so important
a character that demonstrated its wisdom in
so short time as has the Mckinley bill.
None of the disastrous results predicted
have followed it. Prices have not been in
creased, except on few unimportant arti-
cles, and that increase is doubtless only tenn
porary. Neither our exports or imports
have been diminished, and the great nations
of Europe have not given the great Chicago
fair the cold shoulder on account of it, as it
was said they would.

The Kelley cure for drunkenness will re-
ceiye pretty bad set back If it appears that
the death of Judge Higginbotham who went
to Dwight for treatment was due ito the
chloride of gold injection. All that seems to
be clear at present is that the man died
while under treatment, but whether the
treatment had anything to do with It or not
does not yet appear. The weak point about
the Kelley cure is its secrecy, and the APP
parent use of it largely to make money If
the discovery is one of such great benefit to
the human race as the author claims he
ought to make it known as did DIR. Jenner
his vaccination, Pasteur his hydrophOba
remedy and Koch his consumption cure.

Among the resolutions adopted by the
convention Of the Woman's Christian Ten
perance Union at Augusta was one In favor
Oh the ballOt for women. The resolution
TOOK the form of demand and was placed
upon two grounds, first, because it was her
right as an American citizen; and second
because it was necessary to protect herself
and her children against oppressive, unjust
and cruel laws, the liquor traffic and other
kindred vices. The right of woman to take
part in the making of the laws by which she
is governed is quite as clear as the right of
the man to do so. The chief reason why it
has not been recognized in our constitutions
and laws is because there has been no gener
al demand on the part of the women that it
should be. In the woman suffrage contests
In the Legislature Of this State we think that
more petitions have been received in opposi.
ton than in favor, so that the question has
really been, shall the ballot be thrust upon
women against their will? and this the legls
lature has answered in the negative. Ney
ertheless the right of women to vote is quite
as clear as that of men. As to The second
position taken In the resolution that the
ballot is necessary for woman to protect her
against cruel. unjust an d oppressive laws we
are inclined to take issue with 1t. We very
much question whether if woman took part in
making the laws they would be more Just to
her than they are now.

Congressman Dingley in his address to the
shipping convention at Bath pointed out
that one Of the chief difficulties encountered
In the effort to revive our shipping
is the higher cost Of running our vessels after
they are built. The purchase of ships
abroad would not remedy this trouble
though they could be had at smaller price
than they can be built for at home. The
problem of how to run them as cheaply as the
English run their ships would still remain !;
and that Is practically unsolvable except by
general reduction of wages of our laboring
men to the English standard. which would
be altogether too high price to pay for
the restoration of our shipping. But free
trade In ships would soon destroy the ship
blilding industry in this country which is
still considerable, for good many vessel are
built for the coasting trade. So that the
ultimate result of such policy would be a
positive and serious loss in one direction
with very little compensation in any other.

Good Luck for 1892,

The last few days OF. 1891 reminds us
that it is pleasant custom among our
friends to wish each other. at the ad-
vent of New Y ear, happiness and pros
perity for the coming months. Just why
our good wishes should be any more
fervent at the beginning of the year than
at any other period, it would be hard to
say; certainly our friends need good for
tune at one time as we'll as another. But
whatever the reason or unreason of it
"The Burlington" believes it custom to
be honored and therefore very cordially
wishes it's friends and patrons and the
generally, "Happy New Year." AS
our particular friends are the public trav.
cling public, we would elaborate little
by hoping that, by whatever line you
journey. Your trains will run without ac-
cident and make good time; your way
lie through: love ly scenery; your trip be
one Of comfort in Pullman <sleepers and
reclining chair, cars; your meals be en-
joyed on dining cars whose cuisine, is
peerless, and your baggage be safely de-
livered. Ifyou travel by other lines, we
hope for the above good luck; if you use
"The Burlington" we know it to be So.
