discretion it implies in him, who expects
the people to act against their own best
interest, and their own dignity, IN order
to give him an Office which they think him
unfit to fill, and for which nature never
des;,,ned him. That the people haze call
ed in relation TO the approaching Senate
rial election no man in his sober senses
can doubt that their cal will be efectuol-
Ily heard and obeyed il equally certain.
The people OF this State have been for
nearly half century, almost pestered 10
death, by the everlasting itching OF GER
tain GREAT MAN TO place himself in
every important office within their gift. 1t
was TO have been expected that after he
had failed in his attempt, six or seven
years ago, to make himself Governor, his
courage would have been somewhat cool
ed: bat not so: for in 1922 he was found
" Stirring all creation' 10 get himself into
! the Senate of the u. =, but even then the
people calied another and better man,
and their call was listened to by the Le-
gisaturc, for they then elected Gov
, KNIGHT to that important trust. In Octo-
. ber last this same great man, this disturb
9 er of the public tranquility, was again
4, found up and doing bat on that occasion
~ the call WAS to another and better man.
Il And now, in this season of political mode
ID ration and good feeling; at this late hour
l. of his public career, the GIANT Is found
X making another desperate exertlon to place
IN himself snugly in the Senate--but stay
- stay little, Mr.. Potter, the people have
repeated their call to another man, the
" man of their choice; they have sailed a
:, cain the Statesman who so ably supported
ho the dignity and character of the State II
n. the last session of Congress. Hear, MIR
- Polter--read short prophecy: "NeXt DC
he tober the General Assembly WILL re-stec
nd ASHER RoBBINs to the u. s. Senate
Read it Mr.. Potter, though it "blast thin

ch ed, nay, il is plain matter of fact, doubt
ng ed by 40 reasonable man, that there is
lat every town in this State an exceedngl
:" great and overwhelming majority OF free
"' m men who are warmly and decidedly attach
80 ed to the present Administrations OF tn
o,. country. CAN'T therefore be possible thi

at. cd from The inattention Of the frccmen,
'oa Of RepreesSentatves' t6 TIC General Assem-
-he bly, which takes place in August next?-
nd There may be danger. It is due to tn
hu character Of the State; it is expected b
~ the friends of the Administration III OF
sister States, that Rhodc.lsland will col

Rho this State continue TO give that support III

the remote possibility OF the election to tn

~ Mr.. Adams Let every freeman, there

C selves, or rather such men as need give II
40 pledge, to vote for ASHER RoBBINs, the a
