rree Trade Among Laborers.

Election returns compiled from the
sixteen leading manufacturing cities of
Massachusetts show a net republican
gain of .s.712 votes in one year. The
cities are Fall River. New Bedford. Hav-
erhill, Lawrence. Lynn, Salem, Holy
olxe, Springfield. Cambridge, Lowell,
Waltham, Brockton, Boston, Fitch
burg and Worcester. In these cities
the total vote for the democratic can
didate for governor last year was 9s,-
$40, republican, SO.91G; this year the
total republican vote was s6.4.G;
democratic, S5,63S. In these cities
it was the revolt OF the work
ing classes against free trade. 1t
was a battle of ballots and FOR bread.
In all of these cities the wheels of the
mills have been stopped as direct re-
suit of tariff uncertainty and the fear
of free trade. With the promise of bet
ter times these mills will start up
again, and with the congressional vic
tory which will be achieved next year
new impetus will be given to employ
ment and wages will be gradually
lifted back to the point from which
they have fallen since the free trade

Among plants for cool house decora-

place. There are numerous species and

seldom seen in home grounds. 1t is
really better known in England than
here, and there it forms one of the
main features of the underground of
lawns and pleasure grounds. The
rhododendron is not perfectly hardy
in the ATTITUDES of New York and Bos-
ton, and requires some protection dur
ing the winter. On this account, and
also because of its greater cost over
many hardy, deciduous shrubs and

variety. Add to this its low growth
and beautiful flowers, and we have
