the limit Of speed has been reached by such

be built, somewhat on the model of the

royal mails but they could carry little or no
freight and would have TO charge for pas

The Victory in Rhode Island.

The election in Rhode Island resulted in a
complete victory for the republicans, the
enemy having been routed at every point.
The trophies OF the day include the COVER
norship and full list of State officers, and a
handsome working majority in both
branches of the legislature, which assures
beyond the possibility of doubt the re-elec-
ton Of United States Senator Aldrich; and
also good lead in the presidential contest.
1t was conceded by both parties that the
result in Rhode Island would be an import
ant political straw as an indication OF the
drift of public sentiment upon the national
issues of the day, and the campaign was
fought out with this mutual understanding.
The republicans insisted that the issues in
volved were the tariff and silver questions.
The democrats on the other hand
argued that the silver question was
not issue and they sought by
every means at their command to confine
the contest to the tariff issue, following the
example OF their chief champion tariff re-
former, and calling numerous free trade or
ators to their support. Taking the demo
Gratis at their own word, the victory in
Rhode Island is all the greater for the re-
publicans for it means defeat for the demo
Gratis upon their chosen issue, which has
been their only ground of hope for success
in the presidential campaign. Even Mr..
Cleveland staked his reputation and infiu-
ence upon the result, and he lost.
Tho result is oil the more significant when
it is remembered that Rhode Island is a dis
tinctively manufacturing State, Its CAPT
talsts es well as its working people there
fore had peculiar interest in the result and
they upheld protection, even as that princi-
pie Is involved in the Mckinley bill. Little
Rhody has, therefore, cast the first straw
on the right side, aud the result is big
opening gun in the presidential campaign
for Harrison and protection.

Col. Eairbanks's Withdrawal.

The withdrawal, by Hon. Franklin Fair
banks Of his name, from the canvass for
governor, is positive, and the reasons given
therefor do him honor. He does not care
for the nomination unless it can come to
him freely and by general consent This,
ae ho psrceives, would be impossible this
year; and ne would rather step out OF the
field than go into any controversy in the
convention. Ills decision will disappoint
some of Lis warm friends; but will be mp
proved by many others, and it will increase
His withdrawal leaves Col. Fuller OF Brat

Gested and none Of them, SO far us appears
Oh the surface has evoked nythipg like n
strong response from any considerable por-
tion of the republicans OF Vermont. On the
other hand tho abusive attacks OF the Rut-
land Herald and one or two other papers
upon Col. Fuller have clearly created re-
action in his favor, on the part of some who
were before indifferent and have strength
ened the preference OF his friends. The peo-
pie of Vermont do not like to see a well
known citizen of absolute integrity, unblem-
ished character, large public spirit, high
intelligence and marked courtesy and kind
illness of bearing towards all, rich and poor,
high and low alike, berated and decr.ed as
a charlatan and upstart; and from present
indications they are likely 10 administer a
distinct rebuke to Col. Fuller's detractors,
when the time comes. For these and other
reasons, the current Of public preference is
setting strongly toward ex-Lieut. Gov. Levi
K. Fuller, on both sides of the State and
it is quite possible that his will be the only
name presented in the convention.

BUSINESS GOOD.


Spring Gives 1t New Impetus-Merchant
Report Sales Ahead OF Last Year.
Spring has fairly set in aud every branch
of business is taking decided brace; the
trade on summer goods is beginning and a
prosperous season is looked for by the bust
ness men though, OF course, there is liable
to be more or less uncertainty in a presi-
Dental year.
The manager OF one OF the large lumber
concerns IN the city said: "Ihe outlook
for the lumber business is good and the sea-
son is opening very strong The stocks OF
lumber every where are small. This means
that the prices are firm and that there will
be good demand for lumber. In fact, |
don't know of e time for years when the
stocks Of lumber West and else here have
been small. "
Mr.. +. w. Ballard, manager Of the Bur
lington Office of the S andnrd Oil company,
said that oil was selling at about the usual
figures or perhaps little lower on some
kinds. In the last six years the trade has
doubled The Queen City is now large
distributing centre for the product and it is
becoming more and more so.
e. e. Kimball of Spalding, Kimball &
Co.. large Wholesale grocers, said: "Our
trade has been larger since January l by
quite handsome amount, and we see no
reason why it should not continue"
The traffic on tho railroads to and from
the city Increases by thousands OF dollars
every year. which is one of the many indis-
putable evidences OF growth and prosperity.

The full effect Of the republican victory
in Rhode Island upon the national campaign
is not as yet fully realized, but this much is
known already-tho result has thrown
wet blanket upon democratic hope OF carry
ing the coming presidential election. Ac-
cording to intelligence from Washington
tho democratic leaders there do not attempt
to disguise the fact that they are greatly
disappointed, and they admit that their sup
posed bright prospects for the approaching
campaign have received n damaging blow.
The Hill and German followers. however,
are not a, downcast as their appearance
would indicate. 1t is the Cleveland advo-
Gates of both houses Of Congress who, for
obvious reasons are somewhat demoralized.
They counted upon Rhode Island to give the
Cleveland boom an impetus which would
strengthen him in the race for
the nomination at Chicago. The more
ardent supporters Of the OK president, while
admitting this is setback, claim that it
will be only temporary and they propose to
persist in their work to make him the stand
ard bearer of the party. Others who are
not so enthusiastic regard the result
almost fatal to Cleveland's prospects. They
had been assured that at least
four of tine New England States could be
carried by the nomination Of Cleveland,
but now they do not hope for a single State
in this section.
Senator Gray OF Delaware, n close friend
OF Mr.. Cleveland, has been talking OF the
result and he admits that the verdict in
tt. 4. To-. ha
democrats 10 look outside of New Eng land
for tine electoral votes, in addition to the
South, which are necessary TO the success OF
that party. The uncertainty which
prevails as to New York seems to him
'to render Cleveland's nomination unwise.
The senator is OF the opinion that the nomi-
nation Of either Senator Hill or exPresdent
Cleveland, under the contention which ex-
lists between their friends, would be mis-
take, and for that reason, in his opinion,
either Of them will not be nomin ated. lie
| candidly confesses that the situation has
suddenly become somewhat perplexing to
the party leaders.
But outside of the result in Rhode Island
| republicans have reason for great encour-
| agement in the outcome of the municipal
elections which have taken place in many
States whore there existed a decided demo
cratic sentiment, particularly in Michigan,
Iowa, Illinois and Western States, some OF
which the democratic leaders were talking
about carrying. Republicans have the
right to consider these victories evidence
of the awakening of the party to its old
time vigor and of a successful issue in til,
coming presidential election. The outlook
could not well be more encouraging.
