If not too windy.. Mr. McKinley,of Ohio, Boss Ree:Ts mau Friday,' has gone to Maine to sneak in Reed's district. The latter is seriously troubled for fear that he may.be left out in the cold in No vember. The New York Herald advises the Maine Democrats against such a thing. It thinks he ought to be returned; that he has done, and will continue to do, an immense amount of good to the Democratic party and the HcralcVs head, as usual, is mathematically level. Senator Far well, of Illinois, de nies the truth of the rumor that he intended to retire from political life at the end of his present term. He says he knows of no reason why ho should retire, and that, 'by the grace of the good people ot Illinois," he expects to succeed himself in the United States Senate. .Meanwhile Gen. John M. Palmer, the Demo cratic nominee for the United States Senate, is making au energetic can vass of JHipois and is sanguine that he, and not Mr. Farwell, will, by the grace" of the people of that State, be the next United States Sen The"news from Vermont is really good much better, in fact, than we dared hope for. There may be no material benefit gained, it is true, but the moral iufiuence of the thing is worth , a great deal. So far as heard from the Republican vote has fallen off and the Democratic vote has gained. The latter, it is true, is less than 500 but the former, it is al-o true, is more than 11,000, and if the returns continue as they have begun the falliug off will i bo 13,000. The Democrats have gained hand somely on the legislative ticket but as they started up from almost noth ing these gains must be phenomenal to give them a. hope of controlling the Legislature, which is to elect a successor to Senator Morrill. Ver mont is a small State, polling ordi narily only about 03,000 votes, aud yet she has 270 members of tle legis lature, of which the Democrats have heretofore had but 19. North Caro lina polls 285,000 votes aud .has one hundred members less than has Ver mont in her legislature. New York votes over a million and has but 1C0.

' cent of the year's aggregate loss was due to electric wires and lights, of.course iucluding the big; fire of November 23, 18S9, although they causcd but a little over 1 per cent of the number of fires. Spontaneous combustion caused 7.0 per cent of total loss and 7.2 per cent of the total number. The assessed valuation of Boston this year amounts toS22,02G,100 real and personal estate. The highest sum reached in any previoiis year was 1875, a season of inllated real estate values. That year the real and personal of Boston were valued by the assessors at $7'J8, 755,050 real estate, $551,200,150; personal, $244, 554.000. The personal this year is placed at $202,040,700; real $619,035, 120. Between 1874 and 1SS0 the as sessed valuation of the city ran down from $551,200,150 to $437,370,100.
