NEWSPAPER OPINION.
q Ner York Agrees.

Boston Globe
It is now admitted by the Republican
leaders, both within this state and out
side Of It., that Massachusetts, is IN the
column of doubtful states for 1892. Hon
William e. Russell put her there. Twice
In succession he has received a plump
plurality OF the votes Of her citizens for
the highest office in their gift. Every
Democrat, believes, and every Republi
can apprehends. that he can carry the
state again in 1892. His re- cleo
tiou as governor year hence
IL he lives, is felt to be a distinct prob
ability, even by Republicans; by Demo
rats II is looked upon as q moral cer
tainty. AS the candidate Of the Dem.
ocratic party for President of the United
States, Republicans and Democrats
would unite in the confident expectation
that be would carry the fifteen electoral
votes Of Massachusetts, into the Demo.

turn the scale, already inclined to the
Democratic side heavily Ia his favor II

New York, with her decisive thirty. six
electoral votes, has tho drst right to

IT is not improbable that, II the
machine would guarantee the six votes Of
this state an several votes in Maryland
and Pennsylvania for which Senator
Higgins might trade in the National Re,
publican Convention, President Harrison
would find some way to assure us in turn
that Mr.. Spruance would be appointed.
The country is not quite subject to the
mercy Of the tariff robbers, but another
term might secure that desirable end II
such thing is possible every appoint

.1S92--LEAP YEAR.
A:PeW Words from the Pen Of Edith
Sessions Tupper.

Has 1t occurred to you, ladies, that
1892 is leap year?
Ring out wild bells to the wild sky
and tell each despairiGg maid that her
hour approaches. Not for long will she
be forced to pine in solitude, blush un-
seen and waste her sweetness on the
desert air Her day is coming-the
hour in which she can corner the
young man of her choice and tell him
that life without him will be void, a
bowling wilderness. She can soothe
bis agitation, quiet his futtering
heart, press his manly foIm in her
arms aud kiss him smack on the
mouth even if he should resist.
Ring out, wild bells, and tell the CO.
quettish widow to lay in an extra stock
ofwar paint and tomahawks, for her
hour is, too, at.hand. Never backward
about manifesting by gentle look smile
or sigh her preferences, she will be at
her perihelion during 1892. And vain
will be the attempt of man to escape
from the sunshine of her affection. He
who trusts himself in the society of
some mans relict in leap year is lost.
Ring out, wild bells, and tell those
who have lost even the sembIance of
home-those ancient virgins who have
looked through many weary year for
the man to come and have even been
disappointed-that hope is not dead
even for them; that the door of oppOr-
tunity will soon be ajar and they alone
will be to blame ifthey enter not, aye,
and shut and barricade in behind
them. o zee. ..-...-... ......,...=
