the platform and the man. Never be-
fore in the history Of this country has a
man stood in the minds Of the people as
he does to-day, unless Washington is
the exception. If the first. President
was more in the hearts Of the people,
Blaine is more in their minds, the one
popularity representing goodness and
the other greatness. The whole coun-
try seems to believe that Blaine can
grasp the great questions of the hour as
no other could. This popular enthu-
siasm is of most phenomenal character.
Cannot he be compelled to abide the
wishes Of the nation?"
The compulsion proposed is the more
difficult because Blaine does not need the
Presidency. He has no ambition to
crafty, for his fame is secure.

THE ELECTRIC LIGHTING BILL.

THE ELECTRIC LIGHTING BILL.
The substitute bill which passed the
Legislature yesterday, giving to the
Narragansett Electric Lighting Com.
pany a twenty years franchise under
conditions acceptable both to the COM
pany and to the representatives of the
city, seems to conserve the interests of
all parties. The city reserves the right
to establish its own plant, and this is
well; in justice to the company and in
justice to the citizens. who are entitled
to be heard upon any such proposition,
it is provided that municipal plant
shall not be put in except after major
ity vote at an annual election. This is
well also. 1t gives the company every
incentive to offer satisfactory service,
and it gives the city its remedy, if, after
thorough trial, that service is not rem
dered.
The rate per cent. of possible taxation
is raised to five. and it is provided that
the profits of the company shall not be
allowed to exceed eight per cent, the
surplus, after providing for reserve
fund of ten per cent, going to reduce
charges.
Mayor Potter has expressed himself as
satisfied with the provisions of the bill
which seems to be just and reasonable
compromise. The city retains needful
control of the erection of poles, stringing
Of wires, ETC., in its streets, and power
to require the introduction of improved
systems. The company gets that status
which shall give market value to its
bonds. The outcome ought to give gen.
eral satisfaction.

IL the copy Of the constitutional con-
vention bill which we have received
from our Albany correspondent is cor
rect there is grave reason to believe that
the measure is framed in direct viola
tion of the organic laws Of the state. In
other words, the constitutional conven-
tion bill is unconstitutional.-Ne York
Sun.
But that makes no sort of difference
to the Hill-Flower-Tammany legisla-
ture. What do they care for violations
Of the constitution? If the judges need

arrange them. Boss Tweed was a boy

THE REPUBLICAN CITY COMMITTEE.

BY the resignation of Senator Woods
from the Craftsmanship of the city COM
mittee the Republican party will suffer
great loss. For five years he has
served his party with unceasing earnest
ness and fidelity to details that has
rarely been equalled. Mr.. Woods, too,
is one of those men somewhat rare in
political circles, who has no taint of
mugwumpism in him, who has not used
his Office as a stepping stone to public
position and whose sole aim has been
the good of his party regardless of
personal results.
The Republican party is particularly
fortunate in possessing within its ranks
so many men who are willing to work
for the advancement of principles and
who do not become dissatisfied because
the honors Of high Office are not be-
slowed upon them. The newly-elected
chairman, Frank +. Olney, belongs in
the highest class of party workers.
Always active, always courteous, he
brings to his Office the ripe experience
which only years of work in subordinate
positions can give.
The field before the city rommittee
is just now particularly fruitful one.
The Presidential year is already nearly
half gone. Rhode Island and Provi-
dence are surely Republican, but no
State or city can be carried without the
most thorough organization. 1t may as
well be faced as an existing fact that
while Republican organization in
general way has been good, yet
for the very different characteristics
of the two leading parties it has been
difficult to carry our own organization
to that perfection of detail which has
been possible in the opposition. But
the time is at hand when that is neces-
sary. II is idle for the Mugwump or
independent to decry work i'm politics.
System and unending work are as essen
tial in politics to-day as they are in busi-
ness.
The special work which lies ahead of
the city committee does not need to be
spoken of ia detail by us but we can
extend to it our most earnest support in
all matters whichS~ay look to the good
of the party or what is the same thing,
the good of the city and State in gen.
eral.

SAYS the Paris Monifeur de la Mode !:
Sowing to the depression in English
manufactures, due to the new American
tariff, prices have fallen lower than ever
before, and the finer class of goods are
selling at the bare cost of manufacture
to get them into the American market. :"
1t would be friendly service if some
free trader would kindly tell us why
English manufacturers should make
Herculean efforts to get into our mar
ket If the American consumer pays the
whole Of the tariff tax"

LORD SALISBURY in his Hastings ad-
dress before the Conservative Associa-
tions of the Home Counties said that if
Great Britain intended to hold her own
an the conflict of commercial treaties
now in progress, she must infiict upon
other nations the penalty of refusing to
let them enter her markets, unless
they were willing to grant reciprocal
favors. He also declared himself
bluntly Of the opinion that British free
traders had gone too far. their policy
being noble but not businesslike. Such
q speech from the lips of the British
Premier is blunt confession that free
trade is a lost cause.

IT tickles the Republican sense of
humor to be able to write, "The river

now. The Republican committee of the
Senate proposes to slash over $5, 900, 900
from the appropriation. If Democratic
congressman desire to spend the public
money foolishly they should be made"

MIR. LANsING.s DEPARTURE.


nights rain, Mr.. Willard /. Lansing,
Rhode Islands representative working
man, elected by the ballots of News
readers to bring them back fair and
unprejudiced account of the conditions
of life for the masses of wage earners
in free trade Great Britain, left this city
to be about his mission. He reached
New York this morning and will spend
to-day and some part of tomorrow in
completing the preparations for his
voyage. He sails by the steamship
Circassia. of the Anchor line, for Glas-
gov tomorrow, with such credentials
as comparatively few travellers have
carried. All Rhode Island, from Woon-
socket to Westerly, has We'd in Offering
him letters of introduction, and from
Boston and Worcester and Springfield
and Western Connecticut have come
other packets Of them. Senator AL
drich has smoothed Mr.. Lansing's path
in every way possible to him, and he
will hardly enter district or a village
in which he will not be accredited TO
some one in position to put him in the
way of learning what he seeks to know.
And yet in all matters Mr.. Lansing
relies on himself chiefly. The brief
time at his disposal since the close of the
NEWS contest has been spent in careful
study of routes and discussion of the in
dustries to be Investigated. The News
has not hampered him in any way with
cast-iron instructions, but has left him
free to follow his own judgment and in
clinations. 1t has said to him, "Use
your eyes and tell us candidly what you
see."
The NEWS would find it impossible to
predict the order or method of Mr..
Lansings inquiries. 1t knows that he
has it in mind to study the -eetteH and
wool manufacturing industries, to COM
pare them with those Of Rhode Island
1t knows that he will spend some little
time at Manchester and Leeds and Brad
ford and busy Birmingham. 1t knows
that he will go into the potteries district
around Stoke on Trent and that he is
likely to have an eye to boot and shoe
making, and to machinery making and
to cutlery, and in Edinburgh to the
printing trades. 1t knows that he pur-
poses going into Wales to see what the
Welshmen say about tin plate. 1t knows
that he will consider what the people
eat and wear and how they live and
what they pay for food and clothes and
rent and other necessaries. 1t knows
that its readers are going to get an in
telligent and unbiased account of
things as they really exist, and it
is confident of all these things, not from
any supervision it has exercised, for, as
above stated, it has left Mr.. Lansing
absolutely free, but from the working
out of his own plans. These may alter
materially when he reaches the other
side of the Atlantic, expanding or con-
tracing according to circumstances, but
in any event he will give good account
of himself, and the News is only voicing
the sentiments of its readers when it
wishes him most heartily "bon voyage"

hopes of redeeming the state this year
from the Bourbon misrule under which
she has staggered for so long. Major
