THE VJcTOHY IN RHODE ISLAND.

Senator Aldrch, the foremost advocate OF
the new tariff in New England is sustained as
Governor Mckinley was in Ohio The mag
uitudc and significance Of the result in Rhode
Island are not to be judged by the size Of the
State, but by the great gain which APP
pears, the extraordinary obstacles overcome,
and the Indications afforded Of the effect OF
National issues upon similar populations en-
gagged in similar industries in Massachusetts
and Connecticut, the adjoining States. For
the first time in four years the Republicans
have a complete victory in Rhode Island. The
Democratic plurality was 4,419 in 1889, $50
in 1890, and 1,254 year ago. But now the
Republicans have a majority on the popular
vote Of 229, so that they would carry the
State for President with the same vote. They
have the Legislature, thus securing the re-
election of Senator Aldrich and controlling
State legislation.
The new political era in Rhode Island is due
to the constitutional amendment adopted in
April, 1888, by which all citizens Of the state
were enfranchisod and the property qualiiica-
ton for voting was abolished. The total vote
of the State has increased 1905 since that
time, but partly from natural growth of pop

adoption of this amendment an Independent
ticket, having in view the enforcement OF the
Liquor law diverted several thousand votes,
but the Democrats gained 3,759 votes over
their vote for President in 1888. With all the
increase of population they have gained but a
trne since, while the Republicans have secured
not only the greater part of the natural in
crease but considerable part of the voters
enfranchiscd in 1888 who were at first led to
support the Democrats. Republicans cast this
year 2.443 votes more than in the State cleo
ton of 1888 when the amendment was adopt
ed, and on purely National issues in the Pres-
Dental election will probably cast a still larger
vote The following shows the vote of the
State for the last four years:

that the majority of the people do not want
what is called tariff reform, seeing that 1t
threatens their industries. Connecticut and
Massachusetts have similar industries, employ
ing a similar voting population and 1t may
fairly be expected that the tariff issue Will IN
fuence those States much as it has the voters
of Rhode Island. The word Reform always
CAPTURES at first some cheap minds, and few
that are not cheap. But Republican gain IN
Rhode Island of over 1000 votes in year on
a total of A., geo would mean gain OF 5000
ON the popular vote Of Connecticut, and 1900
on the popular vote of Massachusetts, which
is more than enough TO remove all doubt about
those States.

STOP TT. RIGHT 1UIY.

| In the interest of public morality and OF tho
honor and welfare of the Republican party u
is necessary to say frankly to the three Repnb-
lican State Senators, McsSrs. CoSGeshah, I'm
erson and Richardson, whose votes enabled
Murphv's " IIuckleberry" bill to pass the sem
ate. that an immediate end must he put 10 all
arrangements for Republican support in aid OF
Tammany Jobs These three Senator'S lnillct-
cd a gross outrage on their party by the votes
they cast in favor of Murphys boodling scheme
We shall not speak of their own regulations
that is principally their affair. But it is not to
be tolerated that they shall bring the lndlsna-
ton of decent people and the contempt OF the
Hill -Tammany bandits upon the party by whose
sufrages they have seats in the Senate. but
for their action Murphy's dirty job would nave
failed. That it did not fail is now laid with
some propriety at the doors of the Republican
party.
There must he no more of this kind of bust
ness The critical hours of the session have
now been reached. From to-day until ad-
iournment Jobs and swndles will scampcr
through the Capitol like rats in garrett and
il is the prime duty of every Republican mem
her of either house to stand like rock against
every bill that is open to the slightest sus-
picion. 1t is a duty, too, that must be per-
formed. or the Republican party will know
why. If there is any Republican Senator who
feels unable or unwilling to perform this duty
he would better resign and 60 home. If he
STAYS at Albany he must stay in his seat and
vote an honest Republican vote every time
When the acknowledged Republican leaders,
Nossrs. Erwin. OConnor and SaXton, agree III
dcnouncing bill as job, the Republican party
will be slow to forgive any of its representatives
who lend countenance and support to it. No

Their yesterday, the Democratic majority Of the
Joint investigating committee refusing to listen
to the reasonable request of the Republicans

his defence This was characteristic per
Torrance. There was an evident disposition
on the part of the majority to refuse the minor
ity an opportunity to draw up report setting
forth their views, but not all of the Senators
took so narrowly partisan position. As a
burlesque this alleged investigation has been
a success from first to last

II the Democrats of the interior come to the
conclusion that the intention of the machine of

defeat of those measures A careful examina-

such conclusion inevitable.

The tariff issue, according to Free Traders,
transformed Rhode Island into Democratic
State, and they shouted with rejoicing, and
concluded that other NewEngland States were
going the same way. 1t was pleasant then to
befool themselves with the idea that the add
ton of new voters was not the cause of change,
or that the new voters would always continue
to vote against the industries in which most
of them were employed. But it now appears

day Mr. Conklng moved to take the bill from
the committees hands, but was defeated by a
vote of CT to 60. d. b. Hill is responsible Tor
the defective Ballot law which we now have,
and seemingly he is powerful enough to pre-
vent it from being improved where 1t most
