teen days human muscle succeeded in tearing
off the shroud which nature had deftly wove

Emgl0MSl

One year ago the proposition to extend
the right Of suffrage to naturalized citizens
who had served in and been honorably dis
charged from the army was submitted to
the people Of Rhode Island and vote down
by the republican majority. This year
again the same proposition SO modified as to
give them the right to vote whilc in tho
field, coupled with two others-one to ex.
tend the privilege Of voting in the field to
electors qualified as hitherto and the other
to abolish the registry tax-was submitted
to vote, and it is again defeated. The
amendment to the constitution allowing
soldiers now duly qualified as elects to vote
in the field was approved, but those in ia
vor of the naturalized citizen soldier and
against the registry tax were condemned.
This is the way in which the nsturrlized
citizen is treated by the abolition majority in
