meetings of the state
both parties in lioaton today the po-
j litical campaign in Massachusetts be-
j Kins in earnest. An entire state
I ticket, both branches of the legisla-
j ture, representatives in Congress and
numerous county officers are to be
' elected this fall. The legislature thus
(chosen will elect a United States sen-
I ator to succeed Henry Cabot Lodge,
I whose term expires in March.
The democrats are entering upon
the campaign with higher hope* o<
sue ess than they ha\e entertained
ui many years. These hopes were re-
I tliected in the s« ramble for the deui-
o« ratio gubernatorial nomination this
^ ear, whereas only a year ago diffi-
culty was experienced in finding a i
c itable candidate who was b illing J
to head the tit ki t.
Plans for a vigorous campaigu
have already been perfected by the |
democrats. They intend to make
the fight on both national and sta4a
issues. They will charge the domin-
ant party, justly or not. v th respon-
sibility through the tariff of the
high cost of living. On state issues
they will allege extravagance, for
whi h there is to be claimed at least
surface foundation.
The republicans, on the other hand
mi st overconi" some serious handi-
ps if they win at the polls next
month. That tney realize the gravi-
ty of the siti av'on is ev denced by
l' t statements niede by Sor.isto.-

The republican managers, howev-

to be the only one in which the re-
