THE NEWS has no mind to ape its
neighbors and conduct campaign OF
SANDER. Personal abuse of candidate
for the high Office of mayor is beneath
the dignity of self-respecting news
paper and stencil in the nostrils of in
telligent readers. 1t is sufficient TO
place the issue on this ground. Mayor
Smith is true and tried man. Mr..
Potter is without experience. The
News repeats its remark of "A few days

THE time is short before the second
election, but IT is long enough for much
profitable meditation, some of which
may run with advantage as follows:
Nothing but stagnation, decadence and
decay can come of abandoning the pres
ent administrations progressive, yet ju-
dicious and prudent policy. The cry Of
extravaganza is raised by yelping ours
who want the gnawing of the bones.
Make the City Hall kennel for them
and would they spend less? No, but
rather more, and have nothing to show
for their spendings.

WHERE INDEED?

Where would you expect TO find the
mayor ON election night, If not at the
City Hall? Where should the mayor be
ON election night or any other night or
day. but in his Office in that building?
A would-be sensational story has been
flashed upon the public to the effect that
Mayor Smith received election returns
there and looked them over in company

cratic ticket was elected Mayor Smith
falls 1,S7l votes behind his poll of last
year. There were five candidates for
mayor.-Pawtucket Gazette and Chroni-
Gle.
If the crest of the Democratic ticket"
means the Overseer of the Poor and
Harbor Master, all right, but the Demo
Gratis did not gain any councilmen, and
lost an alderman. The treasurer was
as much the Republicans candidate as
the Democrats. and the Republicans
will undoubtedly win for mayor and
senator.
The vote for Senator shows that even
with the aid of the Iron Hall circular is
sued in his interest Mr.. Hahn ran behind
Mr.. Potter. If plurality were sufficient
60 elect, Mr.. Woods, the Republican nom
inee, would be the successful candidate.
as his vote was largely in excess of that of
Mr.. Hahn. On the next trial there is
every reason TO believe that the people
will see the wisdom of electing "A capable
and tried legislator and allowing the Ker-
osene General 10 remain Mt home to con
sole himself with rem mbrances of the
time when he bestrode horse and com
manded a torchlight brigade. .-Pawtucket

Had all the citizens of Providence done
their duty yesterday there would be no
necessity for a second election More
than 5000 qualified voters neglected 10 20
to the polls while the total vote cast fell
far below that Of the preceding year.
Mayor Smith did not receive as strong
support as he did i'm 1890 while Mr.. Pot
ter did not gain much on McNally's vote
last year. To the apathy of the citizens
this unsatisfactory result is IN irely due.
for had they gone 20 the polls they should
have done, there is little reason TO doubt
that Mr.. Smith would have been elected
by a large majo r.ty, even with four can
didates against him. Another election
for Mayor will he held, and If the Repub.
licans on that occasion do the duty they
failed to perform yesterday, Mr.. Smith
will be the Observation-Disclosures Times.
The Republicans will look out for
Mayor Smiths election next Wednes-
day and do the business up brown.
