the Buffalo Times. Too far gone
to keep up with the rapid march
of progress, it hue d.opped out of
the procession. The Boston H er­
ald finds evidence in reoent flta-
tistica of the decadence of the
group of states not only in polit
leal influence and literary emi­
nence, but also in monufacturing
•nd commerce. Boring the past

there was a smaller' number of
banks, less deposits aad less ag
gregats resource« than at the be­
ginning of 1903. In manufactur­
ing New England has not kept
abreast with other sect ions of the
country. The textile industry to

The Herald believes that special
legislation would restore to New
England ita old-time prosperity,
but there is grave doubt ns to the
advisability of providing it. The
Baltimore Bun, discussing this
proposition, ably says that Now

tbs rest of tbe union does not noc
essarily favor a remote corner.
