railroading is still under discussion and
Homer l.. Daggett, president Of the Inter
state road, which has asked for permis-
sion to enter the town on its way from
Cumberland to Pawtucket, will be present
and answer any question i'm regard to
electric railroading and also inform the
the members what his company proposes
| to do.
The regular meeting OF the Town Coun
ell will be held Saturday and the repre-
sentatives of the association will be pre-
sent to press their request to have the new
road come down High street and thus the
interest is increasing instead OF abat-
ing. NJ. Daggett says his road is coming
to serve the people and will use any street
the Council directs and be satisfied.
Although they have asked for Broad
street they are willing to abide by the
Councils decision. Everybody is more or
less interested in this controversy now
going on between the local company and
the Interstate and n large attendance is
expected.

cleaning out an empty store by Maxcy

| and when Richard Burns went to assist
him he found that his leg was broken Just
| above the ankle.
DIR. Remington was called and made the
injured man comfortable. The Pawtucket
ambulance was sent for and the man was
| taken to his home where the broken limb
was set. II was a very peculiar accident
as the leg must have been broken by
twisting the ankle.
| Register, French Democrats.
Tonight Town Clerk Crawford will keep
his Office open for the purpose of register
ing French voters Every French Demo-
crat who has not registered should make
1t a point to be there as this will be the
last chance. Go early and thereby make
| 1t easier for the Clerk who does not relish
| working all night any more than any
| other individual.
The Duty of the Police.
! The police have been unjustly criticised
| for not going TO the boarding house of
John McCann on Cross street, take him
out and send him to the Rhode Island
| Hospital. Those who understand the
| duties Of the police know that they can do
| nothing Of the kind. II a man was found
| on the street who had been hurt the police
would care for him, but this man was in
his boarding house and the police had no
| authority to take him out without orders
| from the Overseer OF the Poor to whom
| application should be and was made.
| When the man was about to be removed
| by Crane & Burns, acting under the orders
Of Mr.. Gilchrist the Captain was asked to
send policeman which he promptly did
| and which was all he could do. There is
no need to ask the. council to define their
! duties in such Il case. II is plain, enough
to people of an ordinary amount of iDtelli-
| gence.
! The Mallette Democratic Club.
Tomorrow evening meeting of the
the Major Malette French Democratic
Club will be held and it will be of interest
| to all French voters of this place to attend
and hear the addresses that will be made
| by local and out of town Democrats.
This organization is doing a good work
in a quiet way. AT the last meeting
| large number were admitted and good
many NATURALIZATION papers lssueu In's
| evening the members OF the club who
have not registered will go to the Town
| Clerks Office and do so. 1t will be kept
open especially for French voters.
