Editor Tribune
Will you kindly do me the favor OF pub
fishing the enclosed article? It seems
to have come to this, that "fair play" no
longer exists with your contemporary in
our city, as the paper which ! herewith
ask you to present to our citizens, was
placed in the hands of the editor OF Even
ing Times, Thanksgiving day morning.
He promised to give it place in his paper.
1t did not appear in Fridays issue the
excuse being given that excess (?) OF
matter prevented. He said it woulC appear
Monday. I frankly confess that from
the one-sided attitude assumed by this
paper in the present municipal situation,
particularly as to antagonizing my views,
etc., has led me to believe that fair play,
or justice, does not longer exist in the
sanctum Of this journal. Below is the
communication which the Times refused
to publish. F. c. SAYLEs.

ting a large surplus. And why should II
not? We are being forced to pay s1.so per

Isubmit that il We are to continue to be
asked to feed and nourish this concern
that it be made cooperative. Let the poor

his savings bank deposit and whs Is
forced to burn kerosene oil rather than
pay s1.sO per thousand for gas-let him,

tion, and shall forever oppose il. have
mother seen, read nor heard any intima-
tion from the Republican candidate for

and just measure relating to the matter
here discussed, and do not believe that
the Inauguration of the so-called citizens
movement was prompted by any other
consideration when first launched upon
our community than to endeavor to elect
some one whom they believed would be
FRIENDLY, particularly when he would
owe his election TO the efforts of those
who were chiefly instrumental in bringing
him before the people.
Fellow citizens, IL you desire that the
domestic economy OF our City Govern
ment shall be governed by correct prin-
ciples, to the end that our taxes may be
kept down to the lowest poiat consistent
with our real needs, then don't assist and
encourage those elements which tend to
increase rather than diminish our bur-
dens.
You never can hope or expect that for
eign capital will be SO foolish as to locate
here when it is known that our citizens
are not strong enough to manage our city's
affairs by at least ordinary business meth
ods.
Let US reduce the cost of lighting our
city one half or more, II possible.
Let us offer no opposition to another

Cipal Lighting.
ARE HIS HANDS TIED?
That is the Way 1t Looks to People
About the City.

Mayor Goodwin has allowed another
opportunity to slip by, which presented
itself at today's meeting OF the Board Of
Aldermen, TO carry out the provisions OF
the Joint resolution relative to the muni-
cipal lighting plant.
The subject OF municipal ownership ,of
lighting plants is one which at present
engages universal attention and any off,
cial who goes out OF way to prevent an
investigation as to its practicability, lays
himself open to suspicion OF being in the
hands of such corporate interests as desire
to prevent the introduction OF municipal
lighting.
The frantic efforts made by the Paw
tucket Gas and Street Railway Company
to elect Candidate sherman to the Mayor
atty OF this city, rs voiced by the pub
lished letter OF Mr.. Gofi, show that this
corporation is determined to keep its grip
on the throat and exchequer Of the city at
any cost even to the sacrifice OF its poll
tical principles, il ii ever had any.
The voters of this city should consider
these matters carefully and at the cleo
tion next Wednesday carry out their
judgment and protect their own interests
from the greed of this monopoly.
BY voting for Mr.. Carroll for Mayor at
that election they will be sure of carry
ing out the above object.
The City Council, when it passed the
resolution referred to, had no intention of
doing any injustice to any company or
individual now furnishing light to the
city, but, with the great improvement in
lighting facilities made within the past
three years, it was deemed right to get
such information as would guide the city
in either making new contract
or in establishing a new plant il the pres
ent company did not seem willing to fur
nish the city with light at q fair price.

WORLDS RECORD BROKEN.

Ashinger. tho American, Wins the o1x-
Day Bicycle Race at Boston.
Boston, Nov. 30.-Ashinger won the six
days bicycle race. The worlds record
was beaten eleven miles.
The scene at the closing hours Of the SIX
days bicycle race at Mechanics institute
reminded one of the days when six days
pedestrian races were all the rage. There
were upward Of 1000 persons present, and Of
that number there were about 1000 ladies.
Everybody In the building seemed to be
Sxcited. The ladies held their end up In
the cheering and yelling, and 1t Ii safe to
say that the no wheelman ever received
such an ovation as did Ashinger.
In the early part of the evening O'Flana-
gan defeated Stage In an exciting three
mile race
Arthur Robb, with his brother az pace
maker broke the worlds indoor record
for two miles.
At OBS O'Clock the plucky American
made his 742 miles, which was one milo
ahead of the worlds record. He was then
presented with two small silk American
flags and floral horseshoe. 1t seemed AZ
II the crowd would never stop their noise.
Lamb also came In for good share Of
the cheering, as the crowd admired his
gameness in riding with dislocated
shoulder When he made his 900 miles he
received grand ovation.
The closing minutes Of the race will
long be remembered by those present.
Every one Of the riders was presented
with bouquets, and before 8 o'clock Ash
inger's quarters were handsomely dec
grated with flowers and American hags,
given him by admirers.
At the close Of the race Manager Eek an
nounced to the crowd that the record made
by Ashiniser was eleven miles ahead Of the

GONE TO HER REWARD.
Miss Lizzie Hogan Dies ut Burraio rs sls-
ter Mary of the sacred Heart.

Niiss Lizzle Hogan Dies at Bufralo as sls-
ter Mary of the sacred Heart.
Sister Mary of the Sacred Heart OF Buff
ialo, n. Y, who was badly burned on the
10th inst, at her convent home in that
city, died on Friday morning at 1880
o'clock.
Her funeral took place Saturday morn.
ing at $50 O'Clock with a solemn mass Of
requiem in the Convent chapel OF the
Franciscan Order.
Sister Mary was well known in this city
as Miss Lizzie Hogan. She resided with
her parents on Pleasant street previous to
her departure for Buffalo last Summer TO
join the sisterhood, a desire that for long
time was cherished by her.
She was daughter OF Edward Hogan,
who carries on the business of harness
maker on Broadway.
Her mother and her brother, Thomas s.,
left for Buffalo on the 18th inst, and have
been there evar since.
Her parents and brothers and sisters
have the sincere sympathy OF the commu-
nifty in the early demise OF one whose lie
gave promise OF much good in her chosen
vocation.
The order of which the deceased was a
member was established by st. Francis Of
Assist about the year 1920. There have
been different branche. OF the order since
then but all have very stringent rules.
The founder set the example OF penitence
and humility by sleeping upon the ground
with block OF wood or stone for a pill
low, eating his scanty food cold, with
ashes strewed upon it; sewed his
garments with pack thread to make
them coarser, rolled himself in snow to
extinguish the fires OF sensual desire,
obeyed the orders OF his novices, tasted
long and vigorously, and shed tears so
freely that he became nearly blind. He
preached whenever he could find hearers,
yet he would never take priests orders,
contenting himself with the humble place
OF deacon. He abhorred disputes and
controversies, held up the spirit OF peace
as the only Christian spirit, and amid the
fierce and bloody contentious which DESC
lated Italy in the thirteenth century, made
his followers act everywhere as peace
makers.
With such an example constantly be-
fore the members of the order, those who
understood the objects were not surprised
at the heroic efforts made to initiate
them.
Miss Hogan, or Sister Mary of the
Sacred Heart, which was her name while
on e1rth, enjoyed privilege never before
given to anyone in the history Of the or
der, in being fully proiossed after COM
pleting only about six months OF her
novitiate. Her extreme piety and good
ness since her entrance into the convent
prompted her superiors to have her ad-
mitted into full companionship before
her death.
The order, while not probably so well
known as the Sisters OF Mercy or Charity
in the East, has quite number OF COM
munites in the West and Middle States,
particularly in Western New York,
Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin and Ohio.
