PARKER IN NEW ENGLAND.
A Massa chusetts Democrat. Predict,


To THE EDITOR OF THE suH-Sr: The
result of the election in Vermont surprises
nobody in New England. because the feeling
has been general here for month that Judge
Parker will be the worst beaten candidate
since Horace Greeley. have made many
inquiries among friends as to how they think
the election will go. and have yet to find
man who thinks Parker has ghost OF chance.
/ am a Democrat and l shall vote for him.
but shall have to hold my nose while doing
it--not because Of Parker, but because OF the
nest OF traitors vouching for him.
Every time a real Democrat hears that
Grover Cleveland says that Parker is safe
and sane" or when he hears that Bourke
Cochran Is supporting him, or when he hears
that Belmont is paying the freight he begins
to wonder whether he cannot better protest
against these leaders" by voting for Watson
or Roosevelt.
Another thing which will hurt Parker in
New England Is the fact that the men who
turned the New nsland delegations over to
him in the convention tot these delegations
by the most high handed strong arm"
methods. outside OF Boston, where the
little men of the machine are always with

but by the use Of money, threats to have
men discharged from employment and other
means, the two delegates were sent to st.

In a word. the visible Democratic party
OF New England is made up OF leaders who

Is a sixteenth Amendment Needed .?

Is n S1Stccntn AmenumenG needed
Mr.. CHARLES w. THOMAS, a lawyer
and a well known Republican, has set
forth in the current number of the North
American Rerie,o his reasons for believ-
ing that the Fifteenth Amendment of
the Federal Constitution, and also the
second and third sections of the Four
teenth Amendment, should be abro-
gated. He would substitute Sixteenth
Amendment providing that Representa-
tives in Congress shall be apportioned
among the several States according to
the number OF the male inhabitants of
the age Of twenty-one years and over,
being citizens of the United States,
who are permitted by law in the States
respectively to vote for the choice Of
electors for President and Vice-Presi-
dent Of the United States and for Repre-
sentatives in Congress. That is to say,
instead of imposing penalty for mar
rowing the franchise, he would offer an
incentive to extending it.
The grounds on which the change is
advocated are worth considering. It is
true, as Mr. THOMAS says, that the Fiji
teenth Amendment is virtually dead
letter. It was so formulated that il
could be legally abrogated by any State
willing to enact the legislation needed
for the purpose. II has been so abro-
gated In number Of States, 1t serves
