THE woMAN's RESCUE LEAGUE. OF BOSTON,
poYCoTrs THE BACHELOR POLITICIAN.
Roston. Sept. 5.-The recent manifesto OF Mrs.
Charlotte Smith against the bachelor politician was
the subject OF attention from the Womans Rescue
League OF this city, yesterday. As a result. set
OF resolutions passed setting forth that the
American bachelor politician shirks his duty to
the human family when he falls TO provide home
for some good woman before he engages In the
nrofession OF politics; therefore he is not TO be
,,sted after he has entered a political arena In
which temptations surround him on all SIDES. and
that unfortunately. modern society has heretofore
given the political bachelor too much latitude by
ignoring his private life.
II was also resolved that. "as far practicable Q
LIST OF bachelor politicians who are aspirants for
nub,,c office be obtained in the State OF Massachu-
setts and New-York. and formal protests he sent
out against their election or reelection by the
Woman's Rescue League. on the ground that they
are Ineligible TO hold public Office"
Th, league extended its CONCENTRATIONS TO ex.
Mayor Edwin Upton Curtis OF Boston on his APP
nroaching marriage and recommended for him
two years vacation from politics In which to enjoy
his honeymoon. The resolutions are signed by
Charlotte Smith.

If Gov. Taylor should resign, as

John Thompson, would become Gov
ernor. Thompson would perhaps prove
an acceptable Chief Executive, but he
was not chosen with any sort of refer
ence to the governorship. Only the
people of Davidson County voted for
him as State Senator; the rest OF the
State had no voice in choosing him.

Magistracy Of the State at the time

Democratic Senators elected on the

to mind most forcibly the necessity of
a Lieutenant Governor elected ex-
pressly for the purpose Of taking the
office of Governor in cast it should for
any reason become vacant. In order
to create the office, however, it is
necessary to have a change in our con-
