The fence on the opposite side of the
avenue is in striking contrast with the
pretentious one of Mr. w. X. Vanderbilt,
ing scenerv.-Newport Enterprise.
We prefer the fence on the other side
OF the street. It's more human and
reasonable. Why, in the name OF com
mon sense, does a man build marble
palace and then box it in behind fence
so high he can't see daylight!
Secretary Foster is quoted rs saying
that the newspapers are responsible for
unnecessary alarm on the subject OF
cholera. 1t is liNely that the secretary
did make the remark as quoted, for 1t is
conspicuously silly remark. -Pawtucket
Tribune.
Not silly at all. The newspapers
ought, in PROVIDENCE for instance, to
ailay public anxiety by reiterating the
well-known fact that occasional cholera
is not half SO bad as constant typhoid
and enteric diseases from vile Pawtuxet
water.

IL Mr.. Cleveland withholds his letter
till he can answer Mr.. Harrison's it will
be the letter that never came. New
YORK Commercial Advertiser.
If the Democrats depended upon legit-
innate argument they would all be as
dumb as the proverbial oyster.
Those Democrats who have been so in
terestei in Mr.. Blaine's silence should
now turn their attention To the silence OF
David Is. Hill and Isaac Z. Gray.-Jour-
nal
The Journal naturally would like to
see the fat idol of Bourne kootooed to
by David and Isaac. But they do not
seem in idotatrous mood, and their
backs are stiff. Have they seen the
light of political redemption!
So much has been said about Mr.. Cleve-
lands prolific letter writing that Mr.
Harrison may have felt bound to equal
the Gray Gables epistles, at least in quan.
tity, in u single document. No other rea-
sou for the extreme length Of his recent
communication is pparent.-Jourpal.
Mr.. Harrison's letter was long be-
cause he had so much to say. But there
is not in it word which the American
puolic would willingly miss. They ad-
mire a man who places himself squarely
upon his party's platform and gives his
reasons. Will Cleveland do as much?
The Herald has no room for President
Harrison's speech. If At had been worth

Newport Herald.
If the Herald had considered Mr.. Har-
rison's letter, or the issues 1T discusses,
weak, it would probably, being Demo-
cratic paper, have published it.

But it isn't new brand. It's the
same old stuff. That's the worst of it.
Governor Russell opened the Cleveland
speaking campaign In Rocky Point, X. ].
That's all right. The Republicans met
the Cleveland party comm thro' the H. /.
a few months ago. The reception this
time will be about as it was on that
memorable occasion-@hen the lights
burned bitterly blue.-New York Adver-
tiser.
II is not expected this fall that there
will be enough of the Cleveland party in
RHODE ISLAND to make any sort of
showing, whether they march "thro'
the r. l." or anywhere else within the
range of the public eye.
As I WAS SAYING.
