Democratic defeat now means Democratic Gsas er.
We were Just a. earnest in protest in 1888 against
tho line adopted by Democrats in this state. It
not needed. but supported the nominee then Just
heartily as We VIII support the nominee OF the Chicago
Convention in this campaign. Wehave men who claim
to be good Democrats who want to select its officers

An interesting light is cast upon the stu

called in that State. the Democrats ia six
towns have not filed certain papers that have
been madc necessary as a preliminary to

hence. In consequence they would DO dis

Republicans. who have agreed that they
may file their papers just as IL they had
offered them in time. If the Republicans
had insisted on the letter Of the statute the
Democrats would now have no candidates
in the view of the electoral law. and they
could not vote for representatives of their
political ideas.

troubles and dangers created by this new

Col. John b. Weber Commissioner OF Immi-

600 immigrants in the detention department
OF the big building on Ellis Island. Ho wanted

Tho Colonel saw the General. and there was

At meeting of the Young Mems Demo-
cratic Club of Massachusetts on Monday
night the following resolution was referred
to the Executive Committee:
"R.,o',.L That the Young Mems Democratic Club OF
Massachusetts contcmpla'es with special pride the
able md satosman,e attitude that has thus far char
ncicrisci tho Congressional life OF Representative
GEORGR FRFp WLLI,as anu that We extend TO him our
hearty congratulations aud hope OF continued success

Some of the members held that it was un
Just to tho other Democratic or Mugwumpo-
Democratic Representatives from Massa-
chusctts to single out the Hon. GEORGE
FRED WILLIAMS. On this account the
resolution was referred. and doubtless will
be- properly amended.
In it's present form IL would 10 n mon
strous injustice to Mr.. WILLrAMs's political
foster brother in Congress, the Hon. SHEER
MAN HoAE. Mr.. HoAR has been as able and
statesmanike as Mr.. WILLIAMS. Both these
sucking CICERos promised on Bonded knee
that they wouldn't vote for a candidate
for Speaker who wouldn't promise to avoid
free silver as if it were the typhus in per-
SON." and then both voted early and often for
Mr.. MILLS. a confirmed silver man. If any
thing. the attitude OF Mr.. HoAR was moro
ablc and statesmanlikc than that Of Mr..
WILLIAMS, for when Mr.. MILLS was beaten.
Mr. HoAR wcpt like n crocodile on the banks
of Nilus. Whether remorse for broken
pledge, or love for Mr.. MILLS inspired the
tender tribute. it was as able and states
nanlikc as could be expected.
Don't part the Mugwump Twins. The
Young Democrats of Massachusetts should
contemplate Mr.. SHERMAN HoAR with as
much especial pride as Mr.. WILLIAMS. Tho
ablo and statesmanlike resistance OF tho
Twins to tho Cartwhcel Demon has not
been equuled since JOHN PHGNIX's use of
his nose as n weapon OF defensive warfare.
Besides. it would be shame to mako Mr..
SHERMAN HoAE weep again. Make both
