General CIeaves' Acceptance.

General Cleaves stated that he came be-
fore the convention to thank them for the
honor they had chosen o bestow with so
great unaniInity. He reminded the con-
vention that the great principles of the
Republican party, that have so long up
held 10y the people of this country, bring
ing peace, prosperity and growth were
again on trial, and that the producing
classes and labOring people had great in
terests ut stake.
The Democratic party agrees with the
Republican party upon one point, that
revenue must be raised to support the
government. The Republican policy
would raise that revenue by putting a
duty upon competing foreign products
similar to those that are being produced
by the industry of American labor.
The Democratic policy of tariff reform
would admit free the products of other
countries; that they would come into
competition with our own labor, drive out
our own manufactures, cripple our own
industrial enterprises, reduce the wages of
American labor and surrender the mar
kets of the United States to the foreign
producer.
He claimed that the tariff legislation of
the last congress completely defended the
products Of American agriculture against
the agricultural products of foreign coun-
tries and secured to them a home market
He said that Maine was firm and i'm
movable in her Republican position, and
that her people were as true and devoted
to Republican principles as were her
soldiers to the flag of the country in the
hour of the nations peril

HENRY B. CLEAV ES
THE CHOICE OF MAINE REPUBLICANS
FOR GOVERNOR.

He Accepts the Nomination in a Speech
Praising the Republican Party-Doings
of the Convention at Portland.
PORTLAND, Me-, June %. The Republi-
can state convention was a long one in
getting into working order, but when
Hon. j. H. Munley, chairman of the state
committee, took the platform and bowed
his thanks for the applause given him,
the work was at once taken up vigorously.
Rev. DR.. Merrill offered prayer, remem-
bering Mr.. Blaine in his hour of affliction.
Hon. H. NJ. Heath of Augusta was in
troduced as chairman, with the following
secretaries: w. c. Emerson, Portland; w.
A. Newcomb, Augusta; G. A. Prescott,
Biddeford; 81. ?. Boutelle, Bangor.
Resolutions of sympathy for Mr.. Blaine
in his bereavement were presented by Gov
ernor Robie and unanimously adopted.
Chairman Heath i'll his speech feelingly
referred to the bereavement of ex-Secre-
tary Blaine.
He eulogized Maine and her men and
greatness, commended Harrison and Reid
and then said;
The Republican party, God bless it'll
It's past has been glorious; its future will
be grander, writing across the history of
our beloved comntry chapters of advanc-
ing civilization, widespread prosperity
and the rriumphs of people, lovers of
liberty, progressive in thought, lofty III
aspiration, leading the triumphal march
of the fatfons of the world"
The state committee was made commit
tee of credentials, and reported the whole
number OF delegates entitled to seats,
1862; number present, 1928
The temporary organization was made
permanent and vice presidents appointed
from each county.
A committee on resolutions was ap-
pointed from each county and the state
committee was then chosen.
Hon. Eugene Hale addressed the con-
vention, giving a brief resume of the work
of the Republican party during the past
four years. He said the reason Blaine
was not nominated for president was
because he did not seek it, but wrote
letters declining it.
Hon. Joseph w. Symonds presented the
name of Hon. Henry b. Cleaves as can
didate for governor. The nomination of
Cleaves was seconded by Hon. A B.
Neatly of Bangor, Herbert NJ Cord of

dressed the convention.

FOR FREE TRADERS.

If the tariff is "tax' on the American
consumer. why should the importer de-
sire free trade?
II the result of free trade would be, in
the words Of that free trade oracle, Mr..
Gladstone, TO make the United States
produce more cotton and wheat at low
prices" how could this benefit the far
mer?
If printers. painters, builders and sim
liar tradesmen are not in any way bene-
flied by protection, how does it come that.
according to reliable statistics, the wages
of such men have always been higher in
protection than in free-trado periodsp
Did Madison believe In protection be-
cause 1t oppressed the plain peoplei"
Why does every sneer at Anne rican

II free raw materials will give us the

II the free traders argument, that this
country Is prosperous 'in spite Of protec-
tion," is good one, does not the Demo-
cratic platform lie when it denies that we

The NEWS is one year old to-day.
The anniversary is not an occasion
for boasting. That Is for him who
putteth off the harness, when the fight
is over. The News is just beginning
the fight for Republicanism and for the
business welfare of PROVIDENCE and
RHODE ISLAND.
Nevertheless, there are some events
of the year upon which we can look
back with satisfaction. Twice the
News has been enlarged to meet the
demand upon its news and advertising
space and another enlargement is now
in contemplation. In the election last
spring the NEWS rendered service to
the Republican party which was rscog-
nized by party leaders and newspaper
men all over the country. Ithas shamsd
the more scurrilous of our local papers
into slightly greater regard for the
decencies of life. And it has driven the
old Journal in abject terror to perch
on the political fence where it gibbers
and chatters at each party In turn in
perfect harmlessness.
The News is in the field to stay.
What it has done is so little compared
with what it intends to do, and will do,
that we can only ask all our friends,
who are many, to celebrate with US our
fiftieth anniversary in 1941. and mean
while trust us to make the NEWS each
year better than the last.

use Of the advertising space Of newspa-
pers that have large circulation among
people who are able to expend money
literally, who is able to show the larg-
est profit balance at the end Of the year.
This subject of the wisdom of adver-
tising in good newspapers is trite and
somewhat overworked, perhaps, but 1t
is as important for the merchants as
ever and they have not yet begun to ap-
preciate the possibilities Of profit that
lie in it.
In these rushing, booming days it Is
the merchant who thoroughly under
stands the science of advertising that
gets the trade.

A PURE WATER SUPPLY.


A PURE WATER SUPPLY.
The report of DR.. Chaplin, superin-
tendent of health, to the City Council,
which was read to the Common Council
on Monday evening, is document
worthy the careful study Of every citi-
zen of the city, as well as the members
Of the City Council.
DR.. Chaplin recommends that an at
tempt be made to enforce the existing
laws relating to the pollution OF the
Pawtuxet river; tnat the patrol of the
river by the Board of Public Works be
continued and made permanent, and
that steps be taken to put in use some
improved method of filtration.
These are all measures that should at
once be adopted. They would mitigate
the evil that now undoubtedly exists.
Whatever the future water supply shall
be 1t is certain that the present may be
improved, and it is equally certain that
it grievously needs Improvement.
But no one should delude himself
with the belief that the problem of the
water supply for this city will be perma-
nently solved if the recommendations
of DIR. Chaplin are all acted upon with
all the vigor and thoroughness possible.
1t will not be.
Only when the city begins to look for
new source of supply will there be
progress made in the proper direction,
and only then can the hope of an ulti-
mate supply of fresh and healthful
water for this city be reasonably in
dulged.
There is, we feel sure, no cause for
immediate alarm regarding the condi-
ton of the Pawtuxet river. 1t is not
markedly worse than it has for several
years been. Indeed, there is reason to
believe that it is less Objectionable as
water supply at the present day than it
has been in the past.
This is not saying tina. the Pawtuxet
river is a satisfactory source for our
water supply. 1t is not. 1t never can
be. And it is exactly because it never
can be that the city must eventually
look elsewhere.
1t is folly to believe that the Paw
tuxet river below the villages can ever
be made fit to serve as the water supply
for PROVIDENCE 1t is simply impossible
in the nature of things that a stream
running through constant succession
of manufacturing towns and villages,
furnishing power for the mills and an
outlet for all the liquid waste of the
region, should ever be fit for drinking
water.
mThe city council should cause a COM
mission of experts to examine into the
whole question Of new water supply
to be appointed, in order that the aues-
ton may resolve itself into such con-
crete shape as to render intelligent con-
sideration and discussion of it possible.
No action more radical than this ought
to be now taken, and that at least ought
to be done, and done at once.
