The Journals reluctant common
sense spoke in its advice yesterday to IN
dependents TO vote the Republican
ticket. Its inbred and insolent cyni-
cism speaks in its belittling OF the State
election.

Will the interests of a single working
man in Burrillville be injured If Messrs.
Cannon and Stone are elected 10 the Gen
eral Assembly ?-Burrillyille News.
No, and you could put it stronger
The interests of more than single one
will be injured if enough Democrats are
elected TO replace Aldrich by free trade
man.
When we defined our position on the
question Of the free coinage bill we dld
not know that the end was 80 near. We
felt that what we said was true and that
our position was unassailabie. Appar-
emily the leaven OF common sense was
working in the House Of Representatives,
and we rejoice to think tnat on tins very
important question we did not delay In
committing ourselves on the right side.
We shall try 10 do this at all times, with
| out fear or favor.-Newport Herald.
The Herald defined its position very
neatly when it said that Mr.. Mills re-
presented bis party's position both on
silver and the tariff.
Charles Il. German stated at Harris
Hall last evening that he only recently
learned that he was charged with advo-
eating a tax on French Canadian lmmi-
grants at speech in Woonsocket. lie
can find in the Reporter files of 1850
letter. signed by himself. discussing the
| episode. Woonsocket Reporter.
Mr.. German is to be congratulated on
his beautifully abbreviated memory.
The Reporter files contain an abstract
Of a speech of Charles t. German against
the Bourn amendment.-Woo Re
| porter.
German has conveniently forgotten
this too, probably.
We wish to treat this subject fairly. We
are not charging that these (anti-silver)
Republicans were any less opposed to the
passage of free coinage bill than were
the Democrats. The difference was that
one party wanted to use the free coinage
issue in politics. while the other did not.
Boston Herald.
Now, isn't that generous? The longer
you think about ii, the more wonder you
feel at its generosity.
But why shouldn't the Republicans
use the free silver bill i'll politics? If
| they can show by II that the Democrats
are unfit for control, isn't it duty TO
show up the facts?
To Grocer Cleveland:
You are wanted in Rhode Island. The
| Democratic State Committee wants you.
| The Democratic party wants you. The
whole people would like To hear you. A
! committee of Rhode Island Democrats
| will wait upon you tomorrow TO invite
| YOU TO aid them by your presence and
| voice Is il not your duty to respond TO
| such a call IN Y. World.
Look here, bureau. you'll spoil the
| whole business. Don't interrupt the
hypnotist at the very moment when,
| brooding like Buddha in his Lakewood
| Nirvana, Cleveland is seeking TO cast
! his thought meshes about the souls of
Rhode Islanders.
There are men who hold more than
| 100000 worth of property who will not
vote without pay.-N. Y. World.
That's right, imported organ. Keep
it up. Keep advertising to the whole
country that Rhode Island is corrupt.
That's the way to win victories and gain
| friends
Adm Capron, Speaker Of the House, for
the reason that Ellery Wilson wants TO
monopolize the floor and have no rival,
says that Smithfield is Republican because
a mill has shut down aud the help have
left:the town.-Pawtucket Tribune.
He said nothing Of the kind He said
the Republicans could carry Smithfield
in spite of the shutdown mill. Quite
different.
