The village OF Lexington lies about
ten miles northwest OF Boston. The
first settlement was made there In
1910 near the site OF what afterwards
became known as the Buchanan Tay-
ern. There still remain In the village
several well-prosoryod houses which
were standing at the time OF the bat
tie OF Lexington i25 years ago They
have been well cared for and have un-
dergone little change. They add much

Lexington Common is In the form
OF triangle and stands nearly in the
center OF the village. At the time of
the fight on April 10. 1875, II was an
open space and used as a drill ground
Tor the militia. To-day II Is a beautiful
park. Al the southern end OF the TIL
angle is what is known as the Pulplt
monument. In the form OF granite
pedestal surmounted by an open Bible
Ihis monument stands on the site of
the first three churches built by tho
colonists. Just behind Il, properly
protected, is a thrifty elm which was

GENERAL BUTLER.

General Butler has made a defence of
his command during the early DAYS of
the Boer war; He cannot, however
get over the criticism of one of the mill
tary attaches from foreign govern
ment, who rode down to see the scene
of Buffers first attempt to cross the Tu-
gela Was there no way round?" said
he. Again Buffers contention that nm
less he had attacked the Beers would
have overrun Natal is not quite correct.
He could have intrenched his forces
over many miles of country, and have
Kept them from advancing. When we
think how Mafeking and Kimberly held
out against overwhelming force. Butler
could certainly have acted on the de-
fensive south of the Tugela with ex-
violent success and no loss to sneak Of
Conan Doyle, in the last McClures
points out the grave mistakes of the
BRUSH officers, and the reasons for
them.
The report which is given under re-
serve by one of the London papers
relative to the refusal of Roberts to
take the position of commander-in-chief
because he could not have a free hand
and the rumored appointment of RulIer
to that position will have to be taken
with large grain of salt. That Butler
Is parsona grata in aristocratfc circles
and Roberts is not, may be true. But
the mistakes made in the Boer war are
| thoroughly appreciated in Great Rri-
tain' and Lord Roberts, who remedied
those mistakes and pulled the nation
out of hole, is the idol of the nation
and of the army, except it's hide bound
martinez generals.
Army reform is what the British ma
tlon VIII insist upon, and any attemnt
TO prevent it would create a tremendous
reaction which would lose the govern
ment supporters both in and out of
parliament. Roberts is too popular a
man not to be put at the head of the
army. Butler is two unsuccessful a man

rors in this direction, and that voters
have been enormously listed as to their
districts and precincts. OF course there
is time to remedy this difficulty and the
party workers should see to it that each
of their voters Is looked up and have
his record corrected, This error is en-
tireiy due to those who had charge of
the registering, and not due to any lack
of care of those registering, for the
question about precinct and district was
not asked them.
Another source of difficulty is that
pointed out in The Star. some time ago.
In one or two precincts 1t is physically
impossible to cast all the votes during
the prescribed hours. With the number
of ballots to be marked, it is not pos
sible to get through the mechanical
work of putting the crosses after the
names in any thing like minute. A
large number of men will take from two
to three minutes. There are only $40
minutes in which the law allows the
polls to be open, and it is very plain
that some voter would thus be shut out
Secretary Cooper, however, has ruled
that the polls may be kept open after
o'clock if voters are in line and wait
ing to vote. This is a solution, but whe-
ther it will stand the test of law is
quite another thing A defeated candi-
date might challenge such a procedure
and nullify the election. If you can
keep the polls open against the express
statement of the law, you might just as
well increase the number of voting
desks. There is room for much discus
sion here.
