PHODE ISL4ND,

The republicans in Rhode Island found
considerable difficulty in nominating can
d,date for Governor. And if the trouble
Is ended with the convention they will be
very fortunate. The Providence Journal
saws the trouble at the convention grew
out of the practice which has been per-
mitted TO some extent Of allowing demo-
Gratis to take part in republican caucuses.
1.-THE evil" says the Journal" has been
growing in many towns, and not few
wards of the city. Democrats have been
called into the republican primary meet
ings in such numbers as to give the meet
ings to those who have had personal rather
than party purposes in view. In some cases
the custom has become so prevalent that the
better portion ofthe republicans have utter
~ refused to attend the primary meetings.
Fair dealing requires that every tub
should stand on its own bottom, and the
experience gained by the lessons of this
Convention will be OF service in bringing
the party to stricter adherence to its
own men and measures"

DoN'T ScoLD.-For the sake of your
children, don't do it 1t is a great mis-
fortune to have children reared in the
presence and under the influence of a
scold. The effect of the everlasting COM
planning and fault-6nding of such per-
sons is to make the young who hear it
unamiable, malicious, callous- hearted,
and that they often learn to take pleas
ure III doing the very things for which
they receive such tongue-lashings. As
they are always getting the blame of
wrong doing. whether they deserve it or
not they think they might as we'll do
wrong as right. They lose all ambition
to strive for the favorable opinion of the
fault-hnder. since they see they always
strive in vain Thus a scold is not only
nuisance, but destroyer of the NOR
ais OF children. If those unloved.
dreaded people could only see themselves
as others see them. they would fee to
the mountains in very shame.
