New England Women and Politi.

Correspondence Of the Boston Transcript.
The women of New England are well up
in township politics, but they are astonish-
ingly ignorant of national or even state
affairs. This applies not only to the farm
ers' and tavern keepers wives and daugh-
tiers, but the most intelligent women in
New England seem unable to take an in
terest in any public question except wo-
man suffrage and prohibition. This singu-
lar ignorance accounts for the entire readi-
ness of the woman sufrragists and prohi-
bitionists to flop on to any party that will
promise to help them in these two points.
The idea that there are great principles at
stake, and greater issues than woman suf-
frage and prohibition seems utterly be-
yond and outside of them. AS for trying
to make them believe that it is not possible
to make people moral by legislative enact
ment, one might as well bay the moon.
The only answer these gentle New England
ladies make is, There ought to be law
against'-speculation in stocks, smoking
cigarettes and every other form of de-
pravity. But. after all, be it said, most of
the disagreeable New England people are
found only in books.

White Caps in Massachusetts
I'M the Springfield Olass.) Republican.


There have been several attempts in re-
cent years to revive sheep raising on the
Hills in Worcester county, but, as else
where, the sheep-killing dog has put his
veto on the experiment, so far as he is able.
More than this, the owners of some sheep
killing dogs in Sterling seem to have taken
up the defense of these brutes to an extent
that entities them to a severe handling by
the law, If it once gets its grip on them.
1t was not enough for the ours to kill
Farmer Tuttle's sheep. but when he was
fortunate enough to kill one of the ma
rauders in the act of sheep chasing. he was
threatened with all sorts of reprisals in an
anonymous letter signed white Caps"
He was ordered to take down signs forbid
ding trespassing on his farm, and told that
If he killed another dog his barns would be
burned and his live stock killed This
white cap business will not be tolerated in
Massac husetts, and the officers Of the law
ought to be sent for the authors of that
letter at once.

ENGRAVERs IN THE LEAD.
They Take Ball From the ID. c

Team.
The bureau of engraving and printing and
the District Commissioners met at National
Park yesterday-at least, the ball teams
representing those two offices did-and the
result was a victory for the bureau lads.
Both teams played fine ball, making the
same number of errors, and the D. c. O.'s
making only one hit less than their op-
ponents. All of the players were on their
mettle and played their positions for all
that there was in them. The game pro-
