TIMOTHY.

Timothy grows In the tangle tall
Between the road and the gray stone wall:
From its long green stalks upreaching high
It's long green fingers point TO the sky;
And some turn purple, and some look tanned
To ruddy brown, like a sunburned hand,
Bending and beckoning. TO and fro,
As the breeze runs by through the clovers low,
And the redtop ripples, feathery fine,
And the daisies shake, and the buttercups
shine,
Stirring whenever the light wind blows,
Under the warm sky Timothy grows.
Timothy goes where the blown grass bows.
Sturdily trudging behind the COWS;
His hard little feet are red and bare,
And HIS brown face laughs meath his tow
white hair.
As blue are his round eyes, boyish quick,
AS the ripe blue berries he stops 10 pick;
And his few front teeth are sharp aud small,
Like the chipmunk's he chases along the wall.
And whistling and following over the hill,
While the cowbells clink in the evening still,
Where in the tangle his namesake grows,
Under the bright sky Timothy goes
Helen q. Cone in 81. Nicholas.

THE WATERFORD ELECTION.

The result of the election at Water
ford can hardly be called Parnellite
victory, although Mr.. Redmond, a
strong adherent of that faction, was re-
turned by a substantial majority. The
fact that Michael Davitt was clearly in
eligible to the seat unless qualified by a
special act of Parliament, and that such
an act was by no means likely under the
Balfour regime, must have influenced
many votes. 1t is easily possible that
this consideration may have turned the
scale. That Mr.. Davitt was confined in
British prison for participating in a
crazy attempt to free Ireland forcibly
from English rule was likely, rather
than otherwise, to endear him to the
Waterford electors. But, nevertheless,
a vote for the unforgiven ex-convict was
vote thrown away, and q disqualified
member would have been members
vote lost at Westminster.
But for this disqualification, Mr..
Davitt was the ideal anti-Parnellite can
didate. Indeed he was, among Irish
leaders, among the first of the anti-Par-
nellites, and on political as well as moral
grounds. So long ago as the summer Of
1888, Mr.. Davitt told the writer of this
article that he seriously disapproved Mr..
Parnelrs ready agreement with certain
of Mr.. Balfour's land law proposals.
That was before the revelations in the
O'Shea divorce trial, and while the other
leaders-Mr. Davitt at least-placed con-
fidence in Parnells hypocrital assurances
that he could prove his innocence of the
charges brought against him.
1t is to be feared that Mr.. Redmond's
easy victory will tend to prolong a use
less faction strife which ought long ago
to have ended.

MORE TROLLEYS.

The Olneyville business men have
asked for the extension of the trolley
system to Olneyville. Possibly it would
have been the more conservative line Of
action to wait until the trolley system
had been tried in this city before de
manding its extension; but the Olney-
vile people are nothing if not progress
sive, and they realize that too much
conservatism is worse than none at all,
and they are willing, therefore, to risk
the unnecessarily feared electric cur
rent for the sake of having the only
practical means of rapid transit.
When this system was first advocated
and when permission TO use it was at
last partially granted TO the Union Rail
road Company, it was known even by its
opponents that complete adoption of the
system was only question of time. The
Johnston Town Council had already
taken action and granted TO the Union
Railroad Company the right to run cleo
trio cars into Johnston. They realized
fully that whatever portion OF the city
was first reached by rapid transit would
grow with greatest rapidity, and that
it would take but short time for its
prestige to become overwhelming. 1t
was not to their advantage to be thus
left out in the race, and the Olneyville
business men have voiced proper and fit
ting sentiments in asking for an exten-
sion of the system to Olneyville.
The City Council can scarcely ignore
the demands of these leaders of thirty
thousand people. Their wishes are i'm
perative, and the Union Railroad Com
pany cannot go far wrong if it at once
presents petition for the extension of
the system.

ginia and North Carolina were Crisp
states, yet they are not represented on
the Ways and Means committee, and are
said to be disposed to conclude that pin
sticking presents the disadvantage of
being tedious and all but interIninable
in its operation. They are ready there
fore TO join with the Mills men in
movement to substitute knives. They
propose 70 have caucus called to dis
cuss the tariff question and have the
ways and means committee instructed,
if possible, to report general Tariff bill.
The appeal to the caucus is most clev-
erly devised. No Democratic leader
would dare to refuse assent and another
battle royal between the factions seems
inevitable. Mills has girded himself
afresh, and some of Crisp's staunchest
supporters in the former fight will enlist
under his standard. The feud is certain
to be hot and bitter, and tariff tinkering
will be out of the question. for the time
of Congress will be spent in wrangle
about who shall be chief tinker. 1t will
be fine fun for Mills and a very pretty
game TO watch, but not exactly the sort
of business for which the country elects
Representatives.

DEMOCRATIC DIsSENsION.

Mills is better, say the Washington
correspondents, but Crisp continues i'll.
There is meaning behind the simple SEN
tences. The friends of the statesman
from Corsicana have decided on plan
of action, and the plan is not such as to
add TO the joy of Crisp's holidays.
Mr.. Mills objects to being turned
down, and for his objection no reason
able person can blame him. II is not TO
be supposed that has he been elected TO
the speakership Mills would have ap-
pointed Crisp chairman of Ways aud
Means, yet though Crisp has only treat
ed Mills as Mills would have treated
Crisp. there is about Mills little scheme
of revenge touch of human nature
that makes it interesting. The Springer
policy of pin sticking gives the Mills
faction its opportunity. A free wool
pin and free salt. free binding twine,
free iron ore, free coal and free lumber
pins have had their points sharpened

of the Supreme Court had ordered Welch
to have corrected, and for his contumacy
Welch was imprisoned for contempt of
court but pardoned within few hours
by Gov. Hill. The man who bends all

dental candidate. Hill knows his party

WORD AbODI IhE "NEWs.'
With this issue the NEWS assumes,
and it will continue to claim and de-
fend, the title of the representative
newspaper Of Rhode Island.
This claim is justified by the facts.
Some years ago it would have been
absurd to deny the title of the Journal
to rank as representative of the State.
1t was easily one of the fifty leading
newspapers of the country. 1t voiced
the opinions of the best people of the
State on political as upon other topics.
1t was power it welded influence.
Times have changed. The Journal
no longer represents the State, its eco
nomic beliefs, its interests or its intelli-
gence. Shorn of its political power it is
still read, as a matter of necessity, as the
only morning newspaper of Providence,
by a comparatively small number of peo-
pie, most Of whom detest its principles.
It has degenerated into a common scold,
railing at Republicans and Democrats
alternately; abusing President Andrews
and Dave Hill with equal freedom, and
sneering undisguisedly at Christmas it
self. This is not like Rhode Island.
No other paper in the State can for
moment claim representative rank.
Several most excellent and enterprising
journals are placed at disadvantage by
being published at distance from the
metropolis. The Telegram represents
nothing; not even the minor
ity party; the Record comes much nearer
that, perhaps, but no Democratic paper
can be-as the News is-thoroughly rep
resentative of manufacturing State.
The News realizes the responsibility
imposed upon it by the high place it has
assumed. No effort will be spared to
make it worthy of the State whose in
terests it voices and protects.
