pired, almost without struggle or groan.

posed for several days, but not enough to
cause him to pay much attention to it. The
cause of his death was supposed to be dis
cnse Of the heart. lie belonged in War

a wife and two children to mourn his sudden
departure. lie was man Of industrious

Newport, Jan. II, 1914.

MARVELLOUS CONsIsrsHcr.-Thc De.
mocracy in this State, at the pre- sent time, ap
pears to be divided into two parties, styled
"Od Ilunkers" aud Sublerraneans." The
"Old llnnkers" were among The rnnkesl
Dorriles at the time Of the adoption Of DORIS
Constitution, but are now endeavoring to
separate themselves from Dorrism and aen-
ufy themselves with the true Democracy.
The "Subtcrraneans" still adhere TO Dorrsm;
aud thus they have defined the party lines
between them. We have no, much faith,
however, in their divisions, as they are very
apt to unite in mos, contests Of strictly
party character. The following resolui ions
passed at Dorrite State Conventions, will
neveri heless show that such "Old Hunkers"
as Waterman, Pearce, y. S. Taylor and
others, who voted for both resolutions, are
not more consistent IN regard to the opinions
they have expressed, than in the coalition
and course of action which they recommend
to the party.
Resolution passed at a Dorriie State Conpen-
ton in Providence, .Novrp,Jer, 1912.
"Resoved, That whilst this Conve n,ion
regret the course pursued by the President
towards the friends of equal rights IN Rhode
Island, deceived as they believe him to have
been, by gross misrepresentation, yet in
their opinion, in The general policy Of his
administration he hns been Influenced by
high considerations Of duty and by his
refusal To approve OF the act To continue the
distribution of the proceeds Of the public
lands, passed by the wings in contravention
of their own solemn compact with each 9th.
or, and IN his veto of an institution, like that,
at whose "depravIty and fraud the country
stands aghas,," he has in some measure
atoned for the course pursued in our affairs
against popular sovereignty"
Resolution passed at Dorrite Stale Conpen
ton IN Providence, January, 1914.
Resolved, That Prcsidcn, Tyler, by his
unwarraninble aud Unconstitutional cou'"c
towards this State, during the struggle Tor
our rights. has raised himself to n bad
cmncncc, from which his political remains
will be- longer dlscerned than in the case Of
an ordinary political departure. False To h"
friends, dstrusred by his enemies, wanting
IN principle aud irmncss, vain, vaclllaiing, n
prey to crafty sycophonts, and an nnbnshnc
trader in offices to the highest bidders, hr
will shortly retire from the station which he
has not filed, without dissenting voice,
with few friends and less respect than ever
attended chief magistrate principally to
be remembered for his veto upoii the rights
of sovereign State, and as political sol.
der of fortune.
The passage Of the last resolution was
probably owing TO President Tylcr's having
appointed democrats to places IN hs Cabinet
through whose friendly agency certain Dor.
ties have been appointed to office IN thl'
State. Very grateful, truly.
