There Is always two cents worth of
something in the Telegram that no other
paper has.-Telegram.
The graphic story of the organization
of Congress twenty-four hours before
that body really organized was certainly
worth two cents and was certainly pub
lished by no other paper.
Both the prize winners in the COM
petitive debate at Harvard took the
Affirmative OF the question: Resolved,
that young man casting his first vote in
1892 has better reasons for voting the Re-
publican than the Democratic ticket"
Young men who have sufficient ingenuity
to deduce out of the political conditions OF
of that question deserve prizes.-Journal
and Bulletin.
So the Journal as well as the Harvard
lads should feel profound satisfaction.
It is always reasonable TO allow GER
tain latitude to the people In political
campaigns, but IL is safe to say that Paw
tucket nor, indeed, any other city in the
State ever witnessed such an outrageous
demonstration as that Of Saturday night
-Pawtucket Times.
Possibly the writer of the above was
not in the neighborhood of the Revere
House on the night of the Providence
election.
We desire to say to the Providence
EVENING NEWS that il did decidedly un-
gracious thing when, Immediately after
the Newport municipal election it placed
at the head Of it's editorial column these
three lines:
The only Republican daily
of the Republican capital
of a Republican State.
And we desire further to say to the
NEWS that under the circumstances of
last Tuesdays Providence experience it
would, in our judgment, be the proper
caper to cut If IL gave its readers some
thing a little more in accordance with
fact, from it's own standpoint, than the
above quoted lines appear to be.-New-
port Observer
Friend Observer, the NEWS always
spells Republican with big r. Provi-
dence is Republican city and the NEWS
has never desired to intimate that New
port is otherwise. Both capitals will be
found in the Republican ranks, will they
not, next year. Will the esteemed Oh
seruer kindly accept the assurances Of
the NEWS most distinguished considera-
ton? "Ungraciousness" was as far as
the Antipodes from the NEWS inten-
tions.
Grover Cleveland has written to the
Ohio Democrats, mo party can succeed
which deliberately relinqufshes a princi-
pie on the eve of its vindication." This is
rubbing it in on the Ohio Democrats.
They didn't relinquish free trade, but
to be more considerate.-Chicago Inter
Ocean.
It's expecting good deal Of Mr..
Cleveland to demanT Consideration or
delicacy of utterance at time when
crushing defeats in Washington and
Buffalo may reasonably be supposed to
have ruffled even his impassive temper.
Here are few facts for those who claim
that the plush industry, which is at pres
ent receiving considerable attention in
this country, is indebted to England for
its development The looms used at the
new mill in Lowell are of American make,
coming from the Crompton Loom Works
at Worcester, and are the invention of an
American mechanic. Not only is this a
fact, but il Is also fact that the largest
manufactures Of carpets in England uses
looms Of American invention and manu-
facture.-The Manufacturers Gazette.
Yet how should it interest mugwumps.
who care not for America to know that
American machinery is used in the
Mckinley industries?
n few years ago we were Obliged to bor-
row plans for naval vessels from England
We were unable to manufacture the
armor, guns or powder needed for modern
war ships. Now we excel all other coun-
tries in these and similar arts of scientific
production. Shall we abandon Republi-
can policy and depend upon foreign coun-
tries for American defence New York
Recorder.
Nobody has ever accused Americans
of such glaring lack of common sense
as would be indicated by such crazy pro-
ceedings.
Democratic papers outside Of the State
are generally remarking that the election
of a Democratic Mayor in Providence
means that Rhode Island will most proba-
bly, give its support to the Democratic
Presidential candidate next year. Per
haps it will. II should be remembered,
however, that the candidates presented in
the next national campaign will presuma-
bly, be men of somewhat different calibre
from those we have just voted for rather
grudgingly in this city, that the issues in
volved will then be real instead of mock
and that consequently much larger vote
will come out. With vote at once larger
and more intelligently cast it is not alto
gether easy to say where people hereabouts
will place themselves; but outside Demo
Gratis might az well understand that when
the Republican cause is partially out of the
shaping and control of our local Republi-
can managers it is by no means so weak

The suggestion will be, in all proba-
bility, of no effect, but it is simply an
act of neighborly courtesy to put it to the
Journal, and the rash Bulletin also.

The unanimous election of Thomas b.
Reed by the Republicans of the National
House of Representatives, TO again be
their candidate for speaker, shows that he
holds n high place in the esteem of his
party, and that while defeats may come,
there is no surrender.-Wo Woonsocket Re
porter
Until the Republicans again have a
majority in the House. there will be no
speaker to equal Mr.. Reed.
