WHEN the Republicans in
this county denied counsel for
the Democrats the privilege
OF examining and having a
copy Of the notice which had
been served upon them, they
showed there was something
wrong with their case The
opinion of the Court in the
matter met the approval of all
fair-minded people, irrespec.
tive of party affiliations. and
this preliminary skirmish was
further evidence that this cleo
ton contest is being made
upon the grounds OF sprite
and a desire to Illustrate the

WANT TO CHANGE BOSSES.

The Republicans OF Wor-
cester were no less surprised
at the result OF the fight over
the United States Senatorship
than the democrats of Mary
land were at the result OF the
November election. and many
OF them are as much OPP
posed to Wellington, the sue
cessful Western Shore candi-
date for the Eastern Shore SEN
atorship as they, or anyone
else ever was, to Senator Cor
man. They say, with emphi-
SIS. that Mr.. Wellington is not
only Mr.. Germans equal as
boss. but 60 further, and call
him a dictator of mean pro-
portions. They say, he not
only dictates, as Mr.. German
did, but he compells the re-
publican officials to even vio-
late their oaths and forces them
to elect him to the high Of
flee of United States Senator
in direct violation of the law
which strickly forbids-a thing
which German was never ac-
cused of. Mr.. John ]. Collins,
an eX-member Of the Republi-
can County Central Committee
for this county, met us on the
street in the afternoon of Mr..
Wellington's election day and
requested an exchange of boss
es. He says: Either, Cor.
man or Wellington is bad
enough, but Of the two evils
give me the lesser.-Mr. Cor
man-and you take yelling
tom IF you want any differ
ence | will pay it,
EDITOR BENNETT. of the
Worcester Ad0oeaie, the re-
publican organ of this county
says: "of the two bosses, Cor

pie and Wellington has neither
sense nor principle Pretty

A RACE FOR A METEORITE.
Both Professor Dyche and LieutenaI
Peary Claim the Big Stone.

Both Professor Dyche and Lieutenant
Peary Claim the Big Stone.
It Is possible that there Is an object that
does not appear on the surface in the sudden
departure for Alaska OF Professor L. L.
Dyche Of the Kansas State University. Dur
ing his Northern trip last summer the pro-
fessor paid u visit while in Greenland to the
largest meteorite in the world and imme-
diately announced his determination to pos
sess 1t. Lieutenant Peary, however. claimed
the meteorite by right Of discovery and
warned the professor not to attempt to re-
move it.
AS the meteorite weighs dozens OF tons
Peary's warning was Of necessity needed at
the time, but Professor Dyche stated dis
tinctly that he intended within q few years
To return to Greenland for the meteorite.
Last week the dispatches announced that
Lieutenant Peary would sail for Greenland
this summer to secure the mCteOrite. AS
soon rs Professor Dyche can reach Seattle
he, too. will sail Tor the North, and it Is
quite possible that his destination Is neither
Alaska nor the North Pole, but the point in
Greenland where the covered meteorite lies.
Professor Dyche will have the longer route
through BerinS Straits and the Northwest
passage, but he is man of great energy, and
if he has in reality started to get the coveted
meteorite the chances are Of lively race to
Greenland. The meteorte is roughly es.i-
mated to be worth $50, 900.

TEMPERANCE.
DRIyK AND RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.
he last issue of the Quarterly Journal OF

The last issue of the Quarterly Journal OF
tnebriety says:
Recently great railroad corporation
gathered all the facts concerning the men
and the conditions Of every accident whlch
had occurred on its lines for five years.
When tabulated, 1t appeared that forty per
cent. Of all accidents were due altogether or
In part, to the failures Of men who were
drinking; that In eighteen per cent. there
was strong suspicion OF similar causes, yet
no clear proof. In one year over a million
dollars worth Of property was DESTROYED by
the failures of beer-drlnking engineers and
switchmen. The ccmpany's rules requiring
temperate men for all positions are more and
more vigorously enforced. Engineers find
that practically they are unable to do good
work while using spirits, even in small
doses. The GOODNESS and presence Of mind
so essential In their work is broken up by
alcohol in any form.
Trainmen, men exposed to the weather,
reach the same conclusion II they are prac-
tical men. The startling mortality Of brake
men Is referable In many cases to the use Of
alcohol to drive out the cold or keep awake
In loag hours of service. Each year re
duties and responsibilities OF railroad men
increase, and men more temperate, accurate,
prompt and careful IN their work are re-
quired. Only absolutely temperate men can
do this work for any length Of time; all 9TH
ers fail and are dangerous in their weakness.
4 Western road permitted an 'inebriate,
who WINS really an able man, to continue as
a claim agent adjusting accounts against the
company. His drinking was supposed to be
an aid In the settlement OF claims With other
drinking men. After his death temperate
man who filed his place saved several
thousand dollars a year by doing the same
work, repeating the common experience
that inebriates are always more or less IN.
competent.

THE UNREASONABLE SEIaHBoR.

A saloon keeper who had a very pleasane'

annoyed on account Of the constant depre-t
dations therein of number of hogs belon8-l
ing to a Prohibihonist who lived near By
One day he came to this neighbor with an
angry scowl upon his face and said: $50,
here, sir, those pigs Of yours are in my gar.
den again destroying everything, and want:
to give you warning that I'm going to shooe
the whole outfit Of 'em II you But. my

We ~ unneighborly on your part. My hogs
may be IN your garden, but assure you, sir,
they cannot do any harm. I've got 'em all
thoroughly regulated. Give yourself no
anxiety, I pray you!" "What do you mean?
I tell you they are roofing up everything!'
roared the saloon man, madder than ever.
'It can't be possible. my good SIR" calmly
replied the Prohibitionist. "come till show
YOU" Together they went to the garden.
and there the owner Of the hogs pointed out
that each Of the animals had been branded
with the Provincial coat Of arms. But
what's that got to do with IT." demanded The
other. "Does that brand prevent 'em from
destroying my fruit?" "Well." replied the
hog owner, 1T ought to, at least as much as
the Provincial licence you hold prevents
your saloon from destroying my boys?"
