The convention then went into executive

and at the resuming of business the dele
gatet were addressed by Mr.. III. X. Stokes
of the PROVIDENCE NEWS. His remarks
were closely listened TO and at the close he
received long applause. IL was voted TO

Feb. 12 az place yet 10 be decided upon
by the executive committee. lie delegates
were after the adjournment invited to par
take of collation. as the guests OF the
Garfield Club, and n vote of thanks ten
dered the club for their hospitality.
The evening program at Music Hall was
of more than ordinary interest, and an
audience which filled the theatre was
present at the grand mass meeting under
the auspices of the Garfield Club. Many
of the delegates remained, and there were
representatives from nearly every Repub-
lican club in the State. The French Re
publican Club of Central Falls came i'm
good round numbers, more than 125
being in line. They were met at the
city line by delegates and by the Pawtuck
ct city band. and escorted to the hall.
There was also present a large number of

Howard Walker, were cared for Presi-

occupied the boxes. The Pawtucket City
Band rendered several selections in a
creditable manner. The first speaker was
the Hon. James Buchanan of New Jersey.
lie occupied more than an hour with a
reference to the Mckinley bill; the
tariff, and description of
the recent disgraceful election
in his State. Then came the Hon. John
X. Lynch of Mississippi, a member Of
United States Congress, who spoke of the
dealings of his fellow men (colored) in the
South. He was pleased TO see the liber-
ality of men with ballots here and hoped
it would soon be so in the South. He was
n Republican from birth and showed how
the wise business administration of the
President Harrison had improved the
country. The smallest details of party,
il properly looked after, bring good re-
suits, and what he wanted to see was
Rhode Island once more represented in
Congress by solid Republican delegation.
His story Of the political situation of the
South was of great interest and closely
listened to. This closed the speech making,
and after n selection by the band the
audience dispersed, which brought to a
close most successful meeting
