f,ll wear is about all she can stand Governor
r,ssell was carried into Office by the tidal wave
,bot event over tic country last November, but
=; is toerabIy certain that the old Bay State Will
rourn 10 her normal allegiance this year. The
penublIcans will have the naming of the success
eul candidate next fall. They cannot fail to put
forward worthy man. There is special signih-
cance however in the fact that both OF the two
pcpublicans most prominently mentioned in con-
nection with the Office are exceptionally wel-qual-
Ged for the position of Governor. Mr.. Russell
will almost certainly be renomnated; so the ke-
nublicans have the advantage Of knowing already
what sort of man this canvass must be made
against.
The coaching OF would be immigrants OH tie

NAV rive suitable answers TO the questions pun
Inv the officials this side, and so gain admission
70 the country, is an ingenious scheme, but IL can
hardly work successfully for a great length Oh
time It's authors evidently do not have correct
opprecation Of Yankee ingenuity. An immgra-
tion official in this country would not be worthy
of his place If he could not tell in five minutes
or less whether person under examination had
been coached.
Emperor Williams pet project Of Central
Turopean Customs League appears doomed 10
failure. Switzerland has definitely and CURLY re-
iected the invitation of Germany to enter tne
Zollverein. Her manufacturing industries are
already heavily handicapped by German compct-
ton. and far from being DESTROYS to extend IN
creased facilities of access and trade TO her leu
tonic rivals. she has resolved to bar them out
nv means of q high-tarif wall. 1t is practically

ovcrtures will encourage Italy to follow her eA-

rocortlv concluded between Germany and Austria,
and 90 exultingly announced by Emperor William
on the eve OF his visit to England, Will receive OhaC
ratification OF the German Reichstag and OF the
Austro-fIungarian Delegations which is requisite
boforc the provisions OF the agreement can DC pun
into local force. All the manufacturing interests
of Austria and Hungary are hostile 10 the cOhVcn-
zion which. in afording free access into the dual
Empire of German goods, involves disaster 10 'iell
Industries. Nor is antagonism to the agreement
confined 70 Austrian manufacturers. For IL meets
with an even stronger opposition on the part OF
the important agricultural interests in Northerh'
and above all in Southern, Germany Ii Is as repre-
sentative and mouthpiece of the powerful agrl-
cultural element that Prince Bismarck Is TO TAKE
his scat in the Imperial Parliament when IL heAU
meets. for the purpose Of leading the popular
onnosition to this unpopular convention, whlch
was devised by Emperor William, not IN une
