The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1892-07-23
The NEWS" TURN NOW.

Yes, tumultuous is the word. People
who were there say the gang was sc
rowdyish that Cleveland was Disguised
aud showed it plainly.
Mr.. Cleveland expressed good deal of
surprise aud little irritation that anyone
should think It necessary for him to state
his opposition to the Force bill at this
time.-PRovIDENC Journal.
It is little vexatious to be called upon
to say one hasn't forgiven ones mother
in-law who died last year.
Where are the bills for free coal and
free iron ore, on the promise of which.
| as chief among other reforms, the people
Of New England were two years ago In
duced to send good many Democrats to
Washingtons--PRoviDENCE Journal
Oh, ask George Freddie. He'll figure
it out all right somehow.
"Republicans intend to C's the election;
| 1t has been Clarkson, Campbell and now
it's Carter" says the Milford Nctcs. No,
that isn't It; they intend u somebody
else get it.-Pawtucket Tribune.
You don't know 'em; they're bound
to &. the ticket through.
According to the PROVIDENCE News Mr.
Aldrich says: "The American working
man receives more and pays out. less
where his fellow abroad receives less and
pays out more" This is the first time
we have ever heard 1t claiwed that it
costs a workingman more to live abroad,
and we think either the Senator Is mis-
taken or misquoted. Newport Herald.
It is the Herald which misquotes and
mistakes by reading things out OF their
connection. The News said "increas-
ing wages and decreasing cost of necess-
aries as opposed to theif direct opposites
are the contrasts brought to view. The
American workingman," etc. That
is to say, the workingman In this
country Is getting higher wages
and living at smaller cost than be-
fore the enactment OF the present tar
iff, while the British workingman is
getting lower wages and paying more
for what he has to buy. AS between
the cost of living IN this country and
abroad the NEWS made no comparison,
though Lansings letters are every week
furnishing under this head much inter-
esting testimony.
The charge that David Bennett Hill
was not invited TO attend the presidential
ratification meeting in New York is with
out foundation. He was invited, by tele-
graph to Washington, several hours be-
fore the gathering, Senator Hill did not

ments for the evening Besides, the tele-
gram came too late for him to accept
Woonsocket Reporter.
Why, but this is only another way of
saying he wasn't really asked at all.
We are in receipt of the first number of
the Pawtuxet Valley Daily Times, pub
lished in Arctic. 1t Is we'll supplied with
local news from the villages. With re-
poPters from three PROVIDENCE papers,
the Pawtuxet Valley Daily Times, the
Daily Cleaner and the Pawtuxet Valley
Gleaer, the people Of the valley ought to
be the best supplied in the State for local
events. .-Pawtuxet Valley Daily Cleaner.
They ought, indeed, and the Cleaner
has a very sensible way Of taking com
petition.
The inte resting question which old line
Democrats are ponderiny Is, "If Cleve-
land had been defeated for nomination
would he have run a. third party can.
didate e?"-Burrillville Gazette.
Perhaps the better way to put the que
nv is, would the Wumps have run him?
We doubt it: he'd have had to fall back
on the vote of James Means, the Colum-
bian.
Grover Cleveland did not wax eloquent
last night against second terms. Boston
Traveller.
No; he'll do that about next March.
The Democratic canvass opens auspic-
iously. Never has Presidential cam
paign begun with greater enth usiasm
than was displayed at the Madison Square
garden last night. ht.-Brooklyn Eagle.
Probably the Eagle editors are so busy
fitting up their new building-and it Is
beauty--that they didn't go to the
meeting. AS matter of fact, IL was a
rude, unmannerly mob Of unwashed
heelers sent there by their bosses, who
amused themselves by yelling SO that
nothing could be heard. Mrs. Cleve-
land was scared and Mr.. Cleveland's fat
face showed unspeakable disgust. There
were few prominent Democrats on the
platform, almost none from Brooklyn.
Mclaughlin and Shevlin were fishing,
McCarren ditto. But 1t is o fine news
paper Office.
Loyal to the core to the Republican
hundreds who will not vote for Mr..
Halle, II he gets forty nominations.
Attleboro Sun.
The Sun is worse than Hill he will
probably vote for Cleveland.
The Journal supported high tariff Al
drich aud now wants Cleveland to be
more pronounced In his low tariff ideas.
But who takes any stock in the journal
any yway.-Pawtucket Tribune.
The Journal is in many particulars
mighty good newspaper. but politically,
as the Tribune intimates, it has thrown
away the last rags and tatters Of its
former influence.
