4 REpUBLIcAM aRRAcER.n

1t is fact well understood by poll
ticiars, if not by the rank and file of
the party, that marked increase will
have to be made over the vote of last
year, if the republicans expect to get
what they are supposed to be entitled
to, at the election, tomorrow. Last year
was year for the stay at-homes, as
will be seen by comparison of the re-
turns. There was a tremendous letting
down of the vote everywhere in the
state, and Worcester was no exception
to this rule. 1t is unpleasant to OBJ
serve, also, that the republican vote
was reduced more than the democratic.
In Worcester alone, the republican
vote fell off more than one-half. while
the democratic declined less than one
half. Here are a few statements that
should bestir the republicans
Wolcott's total vote in Worcester last
year was nearly HOO less than his plu-
rality over Williams in 1896
Wolcott's total vote in the state last
year was only 10,500 more than his plu-
ality over Williams in 1896.
Wolcott's plurality over Williams in
Worcester in 1896 was 6572; last year ii
was only 3171.
In the state, Wolcott's plurality fell
from $4,000 to $500.
Walkers plurality over O'Gara in
the city, in 1896, was 1922, while the to-
tai vote cast for Wolcott, for governor.
last year, was only 54S4
Walker polled 1O,747 in the city. in
1896, and O'Gara 1926. The Spencer
man was not strong candidate, but he
polled 14O0 more votes that year than
Williams polled for governor last year.
This may be an off-year, but if
the republicans care anything for
party o. for good government, they
should see to it that the voting be
not so far 'off" as it was last year.

DREYFUS CASE AND TAIfMANY

At first thought the claim that there
is a deliberate attempt to repeat the
Dreyfus outrage in New York, seems
far-fetched: nevertheless, there appears
to be some foundation for it. 1t is
quite true, as the New York Tribune
says that "the essential iniquity of the
French situation is that courts of JUS
tice have been made subject, and an or
ganized effort is being made to keep
them subject, to extraneous and inter-
ested influences" This in a nutshell, is
what Croker is trying to accomplish in
New York. In France the corrupt ring
which has been responsible for the
Dreyfus scandal has insisted that the
courts must maintain the honor of the
army, meanwhile paying no attention
whatever to the honor of the country.
Croker boisterously asserts that the
courts must pay their political debts to
Tammany Hall, as if any bench worthy
Of respect could be mortgaged to the
worst gang of political heelers in the
country today.
The election of Cookers man to the
.governorship would be direct blow to
the independence of the judiciary, for
the boss has stated in unmistakable
terms that Tammany has the right to
exert a restraining influence upon the
bench, and, in a measure, direct the
course Of men chosen by the people to

TRE WORcESrER pISrRIcr.

AS in other sections of the state, in
terest in the coming election in Wor-
cester centres in the vote for congress-
man. Few democrats are SO sanguine
as to predict the defeat of Congress-
man Walker. They know that what
ever may be the republican discomfort
it is no new thing, but has existed for
years without accomplishing any tang
ible results, and they know also that
the democracy which once was united
is now hopelessly divided, and that
their present candidate for congress is
not so strong with his own party as
he has been in former years.
That Mr.. Walkers reelection is to be
desired upon all party grounds that
should appeal to republicans, is to be
conceded. The republican strength in
the next house will certainly be re-
duced, and it would be misfortune
to magnify the losses by any detection
from New England, especially from the
Worcester district. Every republican
defeated is a blow at Thomas B. Reed
control of the house of representatives
to the democrats. While sound money
and the foreign policy of the nation are
still living issues, it would be a mis-
fortune for the republicans to lose con-
troll of the house AS regards Mr.
Walkers personal fitness for the office,
the following editorial from the Bos-
ton Herald is pertinent:
Mr. Joseph H. Walker is not only the
Oldest member of the Massachusetts dele
cation in the national house of represen-
tatives but he occupies the most import
ant position in the committee membership
of that body His place as the chairman of
the committee on banking and the currency
is one that the state cannot afford to lose,
even if the personal recommendations of
Mr.. Walker were less than they are. He
is one Of the ablest and most successful
business men of the state. and he is
equipped by study and experience in pub
lie affairs as few business men are. We
assume that there is no doubt of his re-
election, as his district has always shown
full appreciation of his public service.

Wo8IAN's DRESS.
Men Are the Best Judges and Critic


(F'rom the Ladies Pictorlal.)
There is no better critic of woman's
dress than man who gives his mind to
the subject. A dozen or more considera-
tons warp and bias one woman's opinion
broadly. 1t is the general effect upon
which he decides, and he flies off at no
such tangents as complexion, or an ir-
regular style of couture, or the age of the
subject, in arriving at his decision on
feminine attire But then men do not al
ways make the dress Of the opposite sex
q careful study, and to one man who can
differentiate between passementerie and
galloon, or scientifically explain how one
bodice differs from another in glory, there
are hundreds who could not tell a last
years gown from one three years
out of date, or a toque from a
bonnet. And, as rule, it is just these in
d1V1duals whose opinions are the strongest
and criticisms most frequent on the ha-
btliments of their womankind. A man of
this stamp will remorselessly denounce
his Wife's costume as a rag or tell his
sister he wishes she would not go out in
that ''drabby thing" He will grumble
that his wife looks "all to pieces"-a ia
damp her spirits by telling her that her
very latest gown does not '1ook right
somehow, yet by no manner of means
can he describe what is amiss or what he
does not like about it. The man who will
say definitely that gown fits badly"
that color Is unbecoming to you, those
gioNes are ilIcut, may occasionally bore

opinion nevertheless carries weight.
1t is against the critics who grumble,

this type of critic is not altogether invalu-

AND FIRE.
Continued From First Page.)


irreparable loss. Many of them have
been treasured as exhibits in the su-
preme court chamber for half cen
fury.
The capitol building has been dam
aged a number of times before by fire,
but it is believed that today's fire will
prove to be the most disastrous IN the
history of the building. On two other
occasions prior to this, fires have been
started by explosions of gas, Seven
teen years ago large amount of dam
age was done to the same part of the
building by an explosion of this kind,
and in 1876 there was an explosion of
gas that killed one man and came near
killing another.
No intelligent estimate Of tho money
loss by the explosion and fire can yet
be made. In the opinion of capitol Of
ficers and mechanics who examined the
structure tonight, the loss viii reach
probably 100000 to the building. The
loss on the library and records, as
stated above, cannot be scarcely esti-
mated in dollars and cents. A million
dollars could not replace them, be-
cause many of them have no duplicates
in existence.
Arrangements were completed to-
night by Librarian Clark of the SUI
preme court and Col. Richard D.
Bright, sergeant at arms Of the senate,
by which the sittings OF the supreYne
court will not be interrupted. The court
will convene tomorrow in the room of
the senate committee on District of
Columbia, one of the most spacious
rooms in the capitol. How long the
sessions Of the court will be held there
will be determined by the justices them
selves.

a REPUBLICAN DEFEAyg

Republicans should understand that
if they expect to elect as many state
officers, congressman, senators and rep
resentatives as they have been aecus-
toned to for two years past, they will
have to go to the polls tomorrow and
vote as if the election were actually in
doubt Unless they are ready to do
this, there are a number of things in
doubt. The democrats have been max
ing strenuous efforts both to bring ont
their own voters and to increase the
number Of them. Outside of two or
three congressional districts, no such
exertion has been made by the Tepub-
licans.
There is of course no possible doubt
about the reelection of Gov. Wolcott
though the size of his plurality is a sub
iect for wide speculation. A conserv-
ative estimate is $4,000. though the
democrats who have great expecta-
tions, hope to cut it down to 10000.
Some members of the democratic state
committee boldly declare that Bruce
will carry Boston by a small plurality.
Unhappily, there is no such division
over the state ticket among the demo-
Gratis as there is over candidates for
congress. There is a prospect that the
republicans will elect Mr.. Holden, their
candidate for the governors council in
the fourth district, and thus make the
council solidly republican, as it was
in 1896. An inspired forecast for the
legislature gives the republicans SO SEN
ators and democrats I, the republicans
IFS representatives and the democrats
65.
AS for the congressional districts,
there is serious cause for anxiety only
in the tenth, where Mr.. Barrows may
be defeated by Mr.. Naphen, despite the
latters frank endorsement of free sill
yer and all the heresies of the Chicago
platform. The democrats persist in
saying that Ramsdell of Lynn may
be elected over Roberts in the seventh,
Barretts old district, but the chances
are very largely in favor of the repub-
licans, and the probability is that Knox
also will be returned from the fifth or
Lowell Lawrence district Despite the
squabbles of the democrats in the ninth,
Fitzgerald is likely to pull through with
a plurality ranging from 5000 to $500,
because of factional troubles which in
turn will diminish Krebs' vote. On
the whole it is fair to expect that Mas
sachusetts will again send twelve re-
publican representatives to congress,
though Mr.. Barrows election is by no
means so certain as it should be.
1t should be again emphasized that
these probabilities are all based upon
the assumption that the republicans
viii go to the polls and vote tomorrow.
If a very large stay-at-honne element
is to be reckoned with, predictions as to
the result are vain. AS an additional
motive for voting. there is the fact that
the party vote cast tomorrow will de-
termine the representation of towns
and city wards in future party conven-
lions. This is consideration which
comes very close to the individual
voter.

SEN. HoAR KNOWS ROOM.
He Furnishes Description of Portion Of
Capitol Destroyed.

Senator Hoar is very familiar with
the supreme court room which was des-
troyed yesterday, and gives the follow
ing description: :.
The supreme court room is located
between the rotunda and the senate
wing, in what is known as the old cap
itol. The two large wings now occupied
by the senate and house Of representa-
tives are comparatively new, having
been built in 1851, and are connected
with the old building by narrow pas
sages. The old building now contains
the rotunda, the supreme court rooms,
law library and offices connected with
them, and Memorial hall, in which are
placed statues of men who have been
famous in this country.
The north wing of the old building
which was the old senate chamber, is
the part destroyed. The east half of this
wing contains the supreme court room
under which. in the basement, is tha
law library. On the west side opposite
the library, are the court consultation
room, senate barber shop, and old
record rooms, which contain the records
of prize causes decided by congress
during the revolutionary war and the
early part of the civil war On the floor
with the court room are the clerks
offices
The fire seems to have taken place
under the law library in a sort of sub
basement south of the west wing Of the
capitol
