With one or two exceptions the Presi-
Dental booms come under the head OF in
fant industries. -Woonsocket Reporter.

In Judge Bosworth's address before the
Republican convention in Providence
Yesterday, he promised the State to either
Blaine or Harrison in November. 1t is
about as well Judge to get your goods be-
fore you undertake to deliver them

The Democrats contracted to deliver
Rhode Island this spring, but they found
the Republicans had the goods. lt will
be much the same this fall and Bosworth
spoke by the card
The facts of the case are, we have
no churches of the living God. Thin rem
derings of holy writ; thin pulpit oratory;
and the entire list of creeds and dogmas
are fashioned to catch the applause of Shy
lock, and to bolster up a class of politi-
cal knaves who are too british to listen
to the cry of suffering humanity or to
stretch forth q hand to save the erring.--
