The Breeze has been complimented 
on all sides the past week on its account 
last week of the disastrous fire at Mag- 
nolia. “The New Magnolia hotel was 
totally destroyed, the blaze being discov- 
ered a little after 6 o'clock. “The 
BREEZE Came out as usual at noon and 
with great surprise our many readers saw 
a full account of the fire, with a picture 
of the hotel. “The story was as com- 
plete, and nearer the actual conditions 
than any other paper, and was placed on 
sale at the newsstands and reached many 
of the subscribers by mail fully 
hours before any other paper. 
This is only one instance of how the 
BreEEzE is able to handle news. A 
paper to be strictly up to date must be in 
a position to handle “‘ news when it is 
news.’ ‘The Breeze has always tried 
to do this, and in a great many instances 
it has lead the daily papers in giving 
news of general interest. 
WHISPERINGS.

We have all heard of tin cans being 
tied to pussy’s tale and some of us, _per- 
haps, have seen a poor feline in such a 
predicament hiking across the yard and 
under the barn. But to see acat hitched 
on tothe tale of atin can, is quite the 
reverse. ‘This condition existed on 
Brook street, Manchester, one day the 
first of this weeks Nor was the pro- 
verbial ‘‘ mischievous boy’’ responsible 
forit. ‘This particular feline was very 
anxious to explore the insides of an 
empty salmon can, possibly to get the 
few morsels of the salmon remaining. 
At all events the poor cat got its head

place in nomination before this senator- 
‘lal convention, a citizen of Manchester, 
en- 
whom you all knew as a successful, 
terprising business man, but a man with 
no experience at that time as a statesman 
and a legislator. I stated to the con- 
vention that I believed that our candi- 
Gro. E. WILLMonTOoON 
of Manchester, who nominated Mr. Shaw 
date hadin him all the elements that 
were required to make an able and 
efficient law-maker and that if elected I 
felt sure he would represent the Third 
Essex District with credit to the district 
and honor to himself. 
““Today Iam most happy’ to again 
come before this convention and place 
in nomination this same gentleman, and 
while I have not the least shadow of a 
doubt about the convention of that year 
taking my estimate of this gentleman as 
absolutely correct, I can today refer to 
him as the senator who made good, as 
in no particular has he failed to live up 
to the brilliant and useful career that I 
predicted for him at that time. His 
work in the Senate and on its various 
committees is a matter of history and I 
know that the district is satishied and 
pleased with the work that he has done 
for it and for the Commonwealth. 
‘““He worked hard. He came early, 
he stayed late, and he sat close. He 
wasealways at his post. He was always 
replete with facts and figures when his

ways alive to the requirements of the 
third Essex, a faithful and loyal repre- 
sentative of the people, 
giving his whole time and attention to 
the causes of the people which he rep- 
resented and to the republican party. 
‘“The republican party through its 
Chief Executive has undertaken to regu- 
late and unsnarl a very delicate but 
tangled skein of valuable material, which, 
when properly treated and interwoven 
in its own place, will add much to the 
warp and woof of industrial America. 
‘Corporations are being taught to 
distinguish the difference between profit 
and earnings, and loot and plunder. 
‘“ This is a time calling for able men 
and wise counsellors. We must be 
assured that only such corporations will 
be punished and put out of business as 
are proceeding along lines which con- 
stitute oppressive monopolies; doing 
business in restraint of trade and against 
public policy, and that such corporations 
as are proceeding along honorable lines, 
promoting prosperity and employing 
labor, are fostered and _ encouraged. 
We ought not follow the principle of 
our school days of punishing every 
scholar in order that the guilty one 
should receive his merited punishment. 
‘It is a time calling for a united 
party, in full accord with the line of 
work undertaken py the President and 
we are all delighted with the harmony 
prevailing in the Grand Old Party today 
It is especially helpful and _ inspiring 
when contrasted with the Whitney— 
Lawson—Bartlett embroglio. 
“Our conventions have been ea 
ious. Nota single note of discord i 
the grand chorus from the surf beatae 
sands of Barnstable to the remotest hill 
in the Berkshires. The administration of 
Theodore Roosevelt is a defensive ad- 
ministration, but a most emphatically 
aggressive one. When Theodore 
Roosevelt gets on his fighting boots and 
gets after anything, whether it is a bear 
in the cane-brakes of the Mississippi or 
one of the variety that infests Wall street 
it is a safe bet that there will be a pelt to 
nail upon his barn door. It is the vigor 
that the President puts into his work that 
we admire. ~ 
“Today, gentleman, we are gratified 
and pleased that our candidate is in full 
sympathy and accord with the President 
in the great work which he has in hand. 
Our candidate needs no eulogy. He 
needs no introduction to this convention. 
He has the secret consciousness of duty 
well performed, the public voice that 
honors virtue and rewards it,’ and I 
place him in nomination again today 
proud of his past and confident of his 
future,—Hon. James F. Shaw of Man- 
chester. ”’
