The Pulitzer Issue.
From the Woonsoeket Reporter.

The Rhode Island campaign Of Joseph
Pulitzer, formerly of Buda-Pestb, Hun
gary, more recently of Missouri and lately
OF New York, Is drawing to q close.
Pulitzer Is worth gu, 600, 600 made mainly
in the manufacturing and the importing
business, although he has a large income
from his newspapers. north and south.
Pu1itzer's manufactures are located in
his native land, and have been, until the
Mckinley tariff was adopted, much more
profitable than American concerns. There
are people working in the Pulitzer mills in
Austria at Is cents o dayl This man alone
could we'll afford to spend a million or two
dollars in defeating Senator Aldrich, who
stands between the importers and the
American market, and this explains why
Joseph Pulitzer Is importing SO much
talent in this State. Let Rhode Island
workingmen bewarei They need work at
living wages. To save the American
market for the workmen of this State it
will be necessary to defeat the importers
and cheap labor party: Vote for Aldrich
and protection by voting the Republican
Assembly ticket. Vote for your own
homes and family.

THE WARWICK FoRnERIEs.

The petition filed at the Warwick
town clerks Office on March 81, praying
for IN opportunity to vote on the adop-
ton of the Australian ballot in choosing
town officers has proved to be, in part at
least, a forgery, as was q similar petition
putting In nomination the State officers
Of the Peoples party. In both cases
names were placed upon the paper with
out the consent of their owners. In both
cases the names were written Of men
who do not know how to write. Young
Mr.. Quinn, Of Warwick, an Assembly
numfnee on the Democratic ticket with
other variously related Quinns, was
prominent in the advocacy Of the petit
tons.
A petition for the use Of the Austria
liam ballot is an entirely proper and re-
spectacle document when it is what it
purports to be. So Is a Peoples party
nomination paper, though we should
hardly expect a Democratic candidate to
sign it. But no fraud was ever yet ex
cused in such o way. Whatever the OBJ
ject, a petition should be what it pur-
ports to be.
How many real bona fide signers were
there to Mr.. Quinn's Apponaug petit
ton?

To-morrow's morn will usher in the
most important election Rhode Island
has seen since 1854. Dusk will see the
contest decided for good Or i'll. There
is but little time remaining for work.
We have called the contest most inn
portant. This State has never been
pivotal or decisive in a Presidential can
vass. In this springs campaign it
speaks the first word, fires tho opening
gun Of a canvass fraught with deepest
circumstances Aave-eof-
spired to call attention to it. Some of
the greatest men of both parties have
come here to speak, and their words
have been widely published. A New
York newspaper of wide circulation. but
nasty character, has taken a vigorous
part in the campaign by scattering mud
in every direction. The eyes of the en-
tire country are upon us.
Rhode Island must render a good ac-
count of herself. She must elect Brown,
Bull, Utter, Burbank and Clark. She
must send to Washington a Republican
Senator, and to Newport and Provi-
dence a Republican Legislature. The
Democrats have even in the manage
ment of their campaign, shown them
selves unfit for the duties Of govern
ment. Send them to school awhile
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1892-04-05
REMEMBER, REPUBLICANS.

This State has not been carried by the
Democracy in a presidential year since
1854. A failure to elect the Republican
ticket tomorrow would dishearten the
party in every State in the Union.
Rhode Island would be ranked for the
presidential campaign in the Demo
cratic column.
We are the first State to vote this
spring. We are the only debatable State
to vote before the meeting Of the ma
tiond conventions. To us falls the
honor and upon us rests the responsible
ity Of opening the national struggle. 1t
must be with victory complete and de-
cisive.
No State in this broad country owes
more to the protective tariff than does
Rhode Island. It is the Republican
policy which has made Woonsocket a
city in which more workingmen in pro-
portion to the population own their
homes than elsewhere in the country
with the single exception of Philadel-
phia. 1t is the Mckinley tariff which
has raised wages in the dress goods
mills in Pawtucket 20 and 30 cents a
day. Without protection the tall Chin
ney would cease to smoke along the
Blackstone. Without protection ''cheap
labor" as cheap ms in Belgium, Ger
many or Italy would be an absolute
necessity, or the busy wheels and spin
dies would stop turning.
The Mckinley act has not raised the
price of any single article produced in
this State. Do cotton goods cost more
than they used to? No person above
the intellectual level of an idiot will
deny that they are lower. Do wooden
goods cost more than formerly? On no
one grade have rates advanced, and the
whole tendency is downward.
How has the campaign been con-
Quoted on the part OF the Democracy?
An outside sensational newspaper has
come in and bedaubed our entire popula-
ton with foul charges of compatibility.
Ex-Gov. Campbell OF Ohio has insulted
the labor of the State with his reckless
assumption that in twenty years a man
couldn't ave $4,000. Bryan and Nc
Adoo, and McKinny and Wilbur have
ranted from the platform with the calm
assurance that their audiences were not
intelligent enough to find them ont in
their economic lies. The great aspirant

A valued correspondent of the NEWS
very effectually criticises Grover Cleve-
lands reference to the Decalogue in his
Saturday speech as follows:
To The Editors of the Ners:
1t seems to me that the soundness of logic
and lucidity OF thought which characterized
the type-written speech read by ex-President
Cleveland at the Opera House on Saturday
were admirably illustrated by his reference 10

SIMPLEX.
Some people might think Mr.. Cleve-
lands reference to the Decalogue is
rather bad taste, some might think he
ought TO give the law credit for greater
antiquity and some of the hungry and
thirsty Democrats unquestionably do
think that he is expecting a rather long
and tedious campaign of education"

CLEVELAND is not above demagoguery.
Else how account for the fact that in
his Provid ence effusion he maintained
that we ''daily hear Of reduced wages
under the Mckinley tariff. Mr.. Cleve-
land, so far as he can claim to belong
anywhere, is a New Yorker, and the
Boston Journal promptly refers him to
the New York Bureau of Statistics for
1891, in which are chronicled 1,941 cases
Of increased wages, 2,0s5 cases of de.
creases in the hours Of labor and only
AL cases of reduced wages. The Demo.
cratic campaign in this State has been a
campaign of ignorance, malice and
falsehood. An ex-President of the
United States should keep better COM
pany.

Let no Republican be deceived. The
victory is ours all along the line unless
it be thrown away. We can elect u

The enemy is playing a desperate game
TO save something from the wreck that
will give them q chance to claim Rhode
Island as a doubtful State in the Presi-
Dental campaign. We are in position

THE OUTLOOK IN RHODE ISLAND.
The Hon. d. Russell Brown, the Re-
publican candidate for Governor, writes
this terse and forceful review. of the
political situation in this State as a
sigued editorial IN the New York Re-
corder:
Regarding the campaign in Rhode
Island both the Democratic and Re-
publican parties realize the import
ance Of this election in its bear
ing upon the national election next Nov
for victory. The Republican fight is being
made upon national i~ssues--tariff, reel
procity, honest m~oney-and for a general
good government.
The Republican party deprecates the
idea of initiation Of our money, which would
strike most heavily upon the wagee arners.
Our people are generally In u thrifty
condition, business Ia good, all are earn
ing o comfortable livelihood and wish to
give the present protective tariff a fair
trial.
The Independents and some Democrats
are with as- and Republican apathy has
disappeared. We have u larger registra-
ton than ever before, and our citizens
have n broader aud more general idea OF
exercising by their vote the right mt
duty of manhood.
Rhode Island people are conservative,
yet never slow to meet the necessities of
any case when presented.
/ believe the Republicans will elect their
State Ticket and u General Assembly that
will return to the United States Senate

and whom the whole country is proud of

LOCALLY and nationally the election
of a Democratic Governor would be a
calamity. The New York Tribune fol-
lows the lead of the News in emphasize
ing the Importance of the State election,
when it says, "There is danger lest Re-
publicans in their eagerness to secure
the return of Senator Aldrich may relax
their efforts for the election of their
candidate for Governor. If they do,
they will find cause for bitterly regret
ting their indifference and neglect"

AS I WAS SAYING.

The ex-organ Of q faction of the De-
mocracy, on April 3 in speaking of Grover
Cleveland said: "He began his official
life In 1861, as the assistant district at
torney OF Erie county, New YORK, when
he was . years Of age. He had until that
time worked unfiagginEly t perfect his
q his living but support his mother"
Assistant district attorney and support
ing his mother when 2 years of age !
Grover must have been an infant phe-
nomona.
Some one tells this story Of Cleveland
when he was i'm this city on Saturday
last: When the crowd were waiting for
the ex-President he vas suddenly driven
by them. The men made a rush for the
carriage with the intention OF taking out
the horses and drawing the vehicle to the
opera house in triumph, but Mr.. Cleve-
land put his head through the door and
remarked 81 prefer to have this carriage
drawn by horses, not by asses" Horse
power was the motive power In regard to
the locomotion Of that carriage. The
truth of this story cannot be vouched for.
II would certainly be neither polite or
politics for Mr.. Cleveland to have said
this.
