10 ON II p BLICAN.



Boston, Dec. 16.-Six Massachusetts
cities held municipal elections yesterday,
and, with the exception of Lynn and Bos-
ton, party politics cut little figure. In
Lynn a fusion of all parties other than
the Republican was a signal triumph,
'electing a mayor by sweeping ma
iority, and also swinging the city into
the license column.
In Boston the absence of a mayoralty
contest prevented the usual interest
and the vote was consequently ngnt
one. The Republicans elected OF the
IL aldermen and member of the school
board AS usual, the city vote yes on
the license question.
In the other cities the elections We're
devoid of general interest, being settled
upon local lines.
The. total vote for license in the 81
cities of the state is: Yes. 124,1o; no
104 ,095; majority for license, 1884. In
1895 the vote was Yes, 119,365; no, No.
63a: majority for license, 1926.
The only changes were Haverhin from
license to no license, and Lynn vice
versa.

GALVESTON AS A HARBoR.

The six million dollar appropria-
ton made six years ago by congress
for the improvement of Galveston
harbor is proving a benefit to the
west and southwest. The jetties
which the government has been
steadily building at Galveston have
turned away the disastrous wash
ings of the tide upon the harbor en-
trance and have raised the water six
feet, so that now the deepest
draught vessel can enter. The &C
complishment of this fact is fraught
with great possibilities to the west.
1t has determined the policy of
several railroad companies to press
at once to that center, and vessel
owners are re-arranging their plans
with respect to southwestern har-
bors. New Orleans people are dis
turbed because Galveston is nearer
the source of the grea. grain produc-
ing sections of the west and is bound
to attract shipping which now goes
to New Orleans. 1t is already a
significant fact that corn from Kan
sas and Nebraska has already begun
move to Galveston which had here
tofore gone to Chicago or to New
OrIeans.-St. Joe Herald.

EUGENE FIELDS LAST STORY

In 1884 Eugene Field wrote story
which he called "The Werewolf"
When twas finished he laid it aside
and a year afterward entirely re-
wrote it. In 1856 he again took it
and revised il, and during the nine
years between that time and his
death in November last, he rewrote
it eight times. His last revision
pleased him and he decided to print
it. But death came too suddenly, and
the story was found, unpublished,
among his effects. Mrs. Field, con-
Guiding to have the story appear,
gave it to the editor of the Ladies'
Home Journal, in which magazine
all of Mr.. Fields work, outside Of
his newspaper articles, was present
ed to the public. The story will be
printed in the next issue of the Jour
nal, strikinglY illustrated by Mr..
Howard Pyle.

Washington, Feb. 12.-The
hoglse committee on Territories
lFld a warm session today
over the bills to admit Arizona
and New Mexico into the Union.
For several weeks it has been
apparent that there was a dis
position among some of the op-
Jonents of free silver on the
committee to postpone favora-
lie reports on those bills at
least for tie present, 10 prevent
the increase Of the free silver
strength. Today the fight Gull
minated, when, while the bill
10 admit Arizona was under
discussion, the committee voted
6 to 3 TO adjourn. Although
the free silver opponents were
responsible for the postpone
lnent of action on the bill,a all
the opponents Of free coinage
on.the committee were not in
favor..of deferring action.
As..asstest'of strength today's
action Indicated that the com
mittee is opposed at least for
the present .to reporting the
statehood bills. As the bill it
self has not beenssss defeated in
committee, the vote.scan be TAX

the..bill are able to muster a
