100000 republicans voted the demo

Women's Letters.

Most of us have sometime in our
lives received a letter or two. at least,
written in a femir ne hand. And we
have not failed to observe that the
author of such letters. whether mother,
sister, sweetheart or wife, was unable
to write upon the pages in consecutive
order. If she did not begin at the end
and write the last page first, she at
first, then the second and the fourth. or
vice versa. the last two being newt
ably written lengthwise of the page
rather than crosswise. This is a
feminine trait and it is probably in
durable, but a recent decision in the
New York courts may set some woman
to thinking on the matter.
A Brooklyn lady named Isabella An
drews made her will, as all prudent
people should do, and a little later died.
In due time the will was offered for
probate, and in conformance with the
promptly contested by certain relatives
and heirs. There was a lot of litiga
ton in the lower courts, and now de-
cision has been rendered by the SUI
preme court of the State, and by this
decision the plea of the contestants is
upheld and the main provisions of the
will set aside. The grounds on which
the decision rests are these:
Isabella Andrews wrote her will upon
an ordinary sheet of folded note paper.
She began with the first page as a
writer should. But when she turned
her paper she did what women are al
ways tempted to do, and what they
generally do-she went to the third
page and wrote endwise and then
| turned back to the second page, where
the will was closed. Thus the third
page was marked and the second
page 3. and the signature and attesta-
| tons We're on the second page. The
| courts opinion as to that kind of
| feminine lacking in the white spaces
Of a sheet of paper follows: That for
purposes of making impossible spurious
| interpretations the courts of the states
| have made it rule that the will must
| be subscribed at its physical end
! Consequently that whole second page
| written endwise upon the third page of
the sheet was thrown out, because the
| testator's signature Went before it in
| the natural order of the pages. The
failure of womans will and a su-
| preme court decision ought to count

A Bangor dispatch to the Boston
Globe states that there have been seven
shooting accidents in the Maine woods
since the hunting season opened. of
which six have been fatal. Another
dispatch says there have been % fatal
shooting accidents in the Adirondacks

about the Adirondacks. but presume
they are as much distorted by the
Globe correspondent as they are in the
Bangor dispatch. Commissioner Carrie

Reeds Rules will Remain.

Many good things have been said
about Congressman Henderson of Iowa,
who will succeed Mr.. Reed as speaker
of the House, and one of the best is
that he is opposed to any alteration of
the Reed rules. The Washington cor
respondents assert that the coming ses-
sion of Congress will be governed by
the same rules as governed the last,
and they make this welcome statement
on the best of authority. This is as 1t
should be. The Reed rules We're not

aside at will. Though their particular
form may be ascribed to one strong
man, the principles upon which they
are based is independent of any person.
ality, and their firm establishment Is
inevitable in the process of legislative
evolution
The Reed rules arose from stern
necessity. Under the old system, busl-
ness was at the mercy of arrogant fill
busters even a minority Of the minor
ity, and real legislation was fast be
coming impossible. The Reed rules
rescued the House from impotence, and
gave life to the old principle that a
majority should rule. The change
might have come earlier with great adj
vantage to the country. Mr.. Reed won
then a mighty victory for right and
justice, and won it by his remarkable
strength, courage and self-reliance.
The opposing Democrats who made the
struggle such a bitter one We're very
glad of the precedent when they came
into power later, and no serious at
tempt has been made, or is likely to be
made. to revert to the old methods.
The Reed rules have raised the dig
nifty of the House and exalted the high
office of speaker. The legislative in
terests of the country depend upon the

Commons has. like our own House Of
Representatives. arrived at the only
practical solution of the matter of a
majority rule, and there is good op-
portunity now for our national Senate
to profit by their example.

THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION
By the Governor.

AS we approach the termination OF the
year, we should be devoutly conscious of
the manifold blessings which it has so
abundantly brought to our State and all
that dwell therein, with no grudging
hand. abundant harvests, successful
business activity and enterprise, unprec-
edented prosperity, happiness and prog
ress have signally marked and empha-
sized the benefits and enjoyments which
have crowned the rolling seasons of the
year. For these and many other tempo
raj blessings-for health and exemption
from all calamities and contagious uls-
eases-for high religious and educational
privileges and advancement, and espec-
tally for the spirit of patriotism, self-sac
rifice and devotion to the best interests Of
humanity, progress and good government
that has guided and determined our on
ward march as a people among tie ma
lions of the earth, we have, indeed,
abundant reasons for Thanksgiving and
for humbly and reverently recognizing
the goodness of "the Lord of Hosts, won
derful in counsel and excellent in work

really reckless woman is the one who
braves Nature day after day, by neglect
of the health of the delicate womanly
organs. "Crime and punishment bios

the cycle of self-neglect is complete it
includes the pains and sufferings which
are the inevitable penalties inflicted by
outraged Nature. The drain which to-
