Woonsocket Reporter.
Well, forgive us this once and we
never will again.
Put up your lightning rod, Grover !
Boston Herald.
Pshaw! He's had Gray Gables tipped
with lightning rods for the last month.
The advice is unnecessary.
The State of New York is represented
in the Chicago Convention by the dele
gates from nearly all the other state
This is not true. New York has been
represented by 72 delegates, and when
they have said that Grover Is weak in
New York they have told the simple
truth.
For sale at bargain or will exchange

Henry Georges remark that he favors
Cleveland because Cleveland's renomina-

The RHODE ISLAND delegates may be
TO keep in the swim, aud that Is the main
thing.-PROVIDENCE Journal.
Tbs 'main thing" is to keep in the
swim is it? This is queer moral teach
ing. The old catechisms defined differ
emily the chief end of man.
1t seems the RHODE ISLAND delegation
did not vote as a unit in the Minneapolis
convention. The presumption is, that
each had his eye peeled, as the saying is.
for the chances, In other words was skir-
mishing TO get in out of the rain. The
four who voted for Harrison got there;
the others were left, and afterwards, no
doubt, ached to kick the nselves. Benja-
min unquestionably has listed the faith
full ones, likewise the dissenters, for
future reference.-Newport Enterprise.
This is rather inaccurate. Five voted
for Harrison. The others weren't ''left"
and aren't kicking themselves. Neither
the five nor the three had any notion of
being listed for future reference. Nor
is Benjamin Harrison the man to keep
such list. The Enterprise should try

liminary preferences will be forgotten in
glorious cause he represents. - Boston
Globe.
This is the kind of nonsense which de-
ceives no one, not even the writer.
Dearly beloved contemporary, the tiger
will claw, and you know it.

If the Cleveland Hill duel to the
death is the Journals idea of ''small
contest" the Journal is funny, funny
paper or since the Sun has practically
pledged itself to support Cleveland, is
the Journal doing the same good turn
by Hill!

The News has publicly doubted if the

Grover Cleveland is entertaining Cover
nor and Mrs. Russell at his charming
home at Gray Gables, and pays no atten-
tion whatever to the proceedings in Chi
