RHODE ISLAND MUNICIPAL POLITICS.

DEMOCRATS DIVIDED IN PAwTUCKET-THE OUT
LOOK IN PROVIDENCE.
Providence, Il. l.. Oct "a Especial. Republican
State Central Committee held its annual meeting yes
terday for organization and consultation. There was
than usual interest in this meeting from the fact
that Almon X. Goodwin. for several years chairman
OF the committee had not been reelected, but that
account OF forgetfuness or misunderstanding inc
name of Henry f. Tiepke, the member chosen to rep
resent Pawtucket on the committee, had not been re-
ported to the State Convention al the proper time
The question arose as to whether Tiepke or GOODWIN
the Pawtucket member. The state Committee
decided that Goodwin held over and they reelected
him chairman Isaac L. Golf was re elected secretary
The Pawtucket City election, with Its triangular
aspect. is attracting considerable attention. The fact
that two Democratic candidates will he in the field
against Republican gives the Republicans grounds
for hope, although the nomination of Sherman on an
independent ticket brought about with dissatisfied
Republicans. Senator Sherman, however, has many
stanch friends in his own party and dt is expected
that he will cut into CaIroll's vote considerably. No
one expects election ON the first trial.
The Prohibition party first in the field in this
city as usual. Their primaries held this week

party also nominated candidate for School Com

nominee being woman. There is a little of that
leeillg In THIS clN III reBsiu W Religion anu inc Puoo
schools Of which there is considerable In Massachusetts,
and the fight for the election Of the ten School Com
mttee men-one third Of the whole boad-promises to
wax warm.
In regard to the nominations for the Mayoralty by
the two principal parties there Is little change in
public sentiment. Mayor Smith is certain OF a re
nomination by the Republicans and James McNally
can be nominated again BY the Democrats If he desires
to be. There Is strong sentiment against him IN his
party and this faction dssires TO nominate William
X. Potter, who was defeated for Senator last
spring If McNally HI nominated third ticket
is probable and tho most talked about
for the nomination Is Henry G. Clark. The
Republican primaries are to be held on November 8.
