True BABYLONIAN PrRiop of captivity for the seis 
lican party has been ended and Governor-elect McCall has 
rendered the party a service that places him in an enviable 
position of leadership in the party. The campaign was 
waged fairly, vigorously and honorably, and the demo- 
cratic party lost and the republican party won. For five 
year the republican candidates have been defeated. The 
rallying of the voters of the republican party to their 
standard is a sign for the future. The suffrage question 
no doubt brought out a large number to the polls, but 
the issue of ‘the republican party from the first, held the 
held; despite the enthusiasm and devotion of the Woman 
Suffrage devotees it was only a side issue. ‘The election 
places the prohibition party on the ballot, that party 
having attained the necessary three per cent. The pro- 
eressive party vote has been reduced so that the party 
has lost its place as a ‘three per cent.”’ party and its can- 
didates next year will be obliged to file papers to place 
their candidates’ names upon the ballot. Mr. Shaw ob- 
tained a complimentary vote of which he may well be 
proud. The overwhelming defeat of woman suffrage was 
acknowledged long before election day, but the actual 
returns make it evident that the women who are seeking 
the right of suffrage have yet a vigorous campaign of 
education to wage.

Tuer STRANDED AMERICANS, who received aid from

not had honor enough to repay the money advanced ought

received such help and now refuses to reimburse Uncle 
Sam be thinking about in not meeting the obligation!

Tur Werk Has Bren a disappointing one to the 
Allies and one of gains by the Central Powers. The 
German army has made its way into Servia and we may 
expect to hear of still further. conquests. Germany has 
now added Servia along with Belgium, As the issues of 
the war now stand Germany has nearly attained what 
she desired on the continent—a seaport on the Atlantic 
and an open rail route through Turkey to India. Only 
oumania stands in the way. But Germany has not yet 
subdued Great Britain’s navy, nor gained a mastery of 
the sea, The entrance of Bulgaria into the fray and the 
persistent neutrality of Greece has for the time being 
upset the calculations of the Allied Powers. It must not 
he. forgotten, however, that the real theatre of action is 
in the east and in the west. The west still holds the 
German forces behind a ring of iron and Germany has 
been unable to make progress. The east tells another 
story. ‘Phe Russian armies are entrenching for the win- 
ter after yielding ground rapidly to the Teutonic forces. 
The Servian disasters are but incidents in the great war. 
The invasion of Servia may and may not have. a bearing 
upon the ultimate results of the war, but at present, ¢t 
least, the activities there are indecisive. There is every 
reason now to believe the prophecies that have been made 
that neither in the west nor in the east may we expect 
to hear news of a definite forward movement by either 
of the combatants until spring. 
Tur Crry oF Boston escaped a serious fire last Sat- 
urday and if it were not for the vigilance and skill of its 
fire department and that the wind had been blowing in 
the direction it did the Back Bay district would have suf- 
tered. The forethought of someone a few years ago 
saved that district. The fact that Chestnut street was 
“cut through” is accountable for the successes which the 
fre department attained in fighting the fire. The time to 
fight fire is before it begins. At least one serious con- 
flagration has been checked by careful city planning. 
Tuoss Wo Know Dr. Hints and his views of life 
were somewhat surprised at the compromise that he made 
with a certain individual. The Brooklyn church, how- 
ever, has urged him not to capitulate, but to fight the case 
out in court, and to court the case will go. The faith of 
Dr. Hillis’ congregation in him is but a forecast of what 
the decision of the court will be. 
Tur LATE-STAYERS on the Shore this year have had 
an unusually good season, Life on the Shore is always 
interesting spring and fall, but those who have remained 
this year have been fortunate. Gardeners have been 
picking late things from the gardens, so long has a de- 
structive frost held off.
