Tuis YEAR THE REPUBLICAN Party under the lead- 
ership of McCall has an unusual opportunity to win at the 
polls. Last year Walsh defeated McCall by 11,000 votes. 
The progressive candidate received 32,000 votes. This year 
the leaders of the progressive party have endorsed Mc- 
Call’s candidacy and there is no question that McCall can 
draw enough votes to defeat Walsh. The republican 
party has for years maintained a standard of government 
upon principles antagonistic to those advanced by the 
democratic party. Through the unfortunate division in 
the republican ranks it has gone down to defeat for sev- 
eral years and the voters of Massachusetts have had an 
opportunity to judge of the results of democratic coa- 
trol. The well intentioned promises of the democratic 
erganization have not been realized, nor can they be. The 
question is whether the people of Massachusetts will have 
a better form of government in the leadership of Walsh 
or McCall? McCall has a clean record, is an able leader, 
a hard worker, conscientious in his endeavors and is a 
man of high ideals and honorable principles. A vote for 
McCall will be a vote for good government, a_ better 
government in the Old Bay State. There is no doubt that 
the prohibition question will have to become an issue in 
either the democratic or republican party. The day may 
be postponed, but its hour will come. This, however, is 
not the year and despite the fact that Mr. Shaw is work- 
ing conscientiously for a high principle, his election can- 
not be possible. It would seem that the friends of tera- 
perance and the workers for sane methods of regulation 
should see clearly enough that it has been the republican 
party that has lead the way in temperance legislation. 
A vote for principle may never be lost, but it is possible. to 
vote without sacrificing principle. A careful comparison 
of the records of the republican party and of the demo- 
cratic party will reveal some interesting facts. Was it 
the republican party that established the Bar and Bottle 
bill? Yes! Was it the democratic party that rescinded 
the Liquor Transportation bill? Yes! It would seem 
that this year, at least, the temperance forces should rally 
to the support of McCall and win this fight. If repub- 
licans only hang together, Mr. McCall is infallibly to be 
elected. If some of them vote for Walsh with the idea 
of registering their approval of President Wilson, and if 
others vote for Shaw with the idea that they are some- 
how administering a stinging slap at the liquor trade, Mr. 
Walsh will be elected again—and the liquor trade in par- 
ticular will be well content! 
THe PHILADELPHIA Mos that turned roman candles 
on the suffragists gathered to hear their cause presented 
must have forgotten the meaning of the name of the City 
of Brotherly Love. 
THE SuccEsTIon that Mrs. Robert S. Bradley made 
at the last meeting of the Beverly Farms Improvement 
Society concerning fall house-cleaning is worthy of con- 
sideration by every summer resident. Mrs. Bradley 
claims, and her claim is undoubtedly true, that leaving 
the house-cleaning operations until spring affords the 
hibernating flies excellent opportunities to secret them- 
selves and remain all winter. A thorough fall cleaning 
would prevent any such operations by the pest. Excellent 
results have been obtained by leaving bowls of phenotas 
about during the winter. When the flies, heavy with their 
long winter stupor, awaken and instantly seek water. The 
bowl of water and phenotas finishes the task, The fly 
is a scourge and every contribution to the knowledge of 
men of its habits and methods of extinction is valuable. 
In addition to the benefits thus obtained in fighting the 
hcuse-fly householders will find it much more easy to ob- 
tzin the services of experienced house-cleaners than in 
the busy rush days of spring. Mrs. Bradley has been 
doing valuable work in arousing interest in the fight 
against the fly and every householder will find it to their 
advantage to become acquainted with the modern suc- 
cessful methods of fly extinction and prevention. 
Tue Pusric HeartH DIsPpENSARY COMMISSION of 
the City of Beverly is already proving to be a most valu- 
able agent in its field of work. The dispensary has proven 
to be a great help in the fight against disease in the city. 
A campaign of education has been begun against tuber- 
cr'losis and this enterprising commission has engaged a 
theatre in that city, Prominent speakers will outline the 
causes, methods of treatment and the prevention of tuber- 
culosis. A four reel motion picture entitled the ‘White 
Terror” will be thrown upon the screen. The commis- 
sion has enlisted the service of a powerful educational 
agent in using the moving picture method. Tuberculosis 
is a dread disease, but it yields, however, most effectively, 
to the progress of science. Tuberculosis can be prevent- 
ed and it can be cured and every enterprise that en- 
ceavors to inform the people of the ravages of the dis- 
ease and methods of prevention and cure should be en- 
couraged by everyone. 
Mr. WALTER D. DENEGRE of West Manchester has 
made a thorough study of the North Shore mosquito 
problem and has had great success in the work which he 
has been doing. The low swamps, marsh lands, stagnant 
pools, grass-edged limpid brooks, open receptacles con- 
taining water and even old cans filled with rain water 
afford convenient. places for the dreadful pest, the 
mosquito, to breed. In combating the pest Mr. Denégre 
has shown good judgement, patience and perseverance 
and his work has been successful. More than one North 
Shore resident has been benefited by the work done. It 
is a thousand pities that any summer place should be 
robbed of the comfort that should be obtained on warm 
simmer evenings, but the mosquito breaks the charm. 
Tue Cuurcues along the Shore responded well to 
the appeals made on Hospital Sunday. The hospital 
should be supported heartily and if you have not made 
the contribution which you wish mail a checque to the 
treasurer, Mr. Joseph C. Kilham, Beverly, Mass. 
It ts AMAZING what some campaigners consider vital 
issues. Some of these ardent workers have been solving 
problems that disappeared years ago and some are solving 
problems that will take this nation one hundred years to 
understand. .
