The NEWS" TURN N0W..
The regret of the friends of the six
candidates who were defeated in yester-
days election can be but small as COM
pared with the regret OF the entire COM
munity that the only remaining vacancy
in the city's representation in the next
| Assembly was not filed at the same
| time. There would be some consolation
| if by any possibility either of the remain
| ing candidates could be worth the money
| that the election Of one Of them Will cost.
| journal.
That the election was not finished
| yesterday is a matter Of general regret;
| here, strangely enough, the Journal and
| the entire community must agree. But
| it was hardly necessary for the great
| dyspeptic of newspaperdom to vent its
| spleen on the candidates for tenth rep
resentative. 1t is not to be supposed
| that either or both were at all anxious
| for a sixth election all by themselves.
| The Journal should be decently just
even in its i'll nature.
The Providence Journal has had within
| the past few months little filings at Sun
day observance in its editorial columns.
| 1t has been pretty bad In its politics an d
now it's evil associations begin to show in
| the abandonment of its orthodox founda-
tions.-Pawtuxet Valley Cleaner.
The Journal has undoubtedly laid itself
| open to the Cleaners criticism; but il is
wise to be charitable; the News would
prefer to consider the Journal viciously
ill-natured rather than immoral.
But for the "tariff" issue which was
| invented and is kept alive by the liquor
dealers and their money, the legalized
saloon would not now .-Westerly
| Tribune.
But here is case where patience
ceases to be virtue. The Tribune does
not concern itself apparently with the
grossness or the boldness of its-it's a
discourteous word, but what can the
NEWS say but-falsehoods.
Governor Boies of Iowa is certainly not
without honor at home. His name is now
distinctly before the country as presi-
! Dental candidate, and, should Cleveland
be slaughtered by Hill, as is quite posi-
BILE, few men in the party stand q better
chance for the succession. - Newport

| We should not have expected our
| Newport contemporary to smile SO ami
| ably upon man who has endorsed free
silver and is now at his wits end to
hedge 50 tactfully as to keep on good
terms with both sides.
| The members of the Young Mems Re-
| publican Club are to be congratulated on
| the thorough success OF their dinner last
night Nothing very original was said
| but the speeches were all good specimens
| of the sort of talk party man Is expected
| to address to men who agree with every
thing he says.-New Bedford Journal.
This is good specimen of the sort of
paragraph an independent" paper is ex-
| pected to write concerning anything
with political bone, marrow, and tissue
in it.
Sherman is q courteous listener and the
paragon Of gentility and cheerful lness. -
Boston Globe.
This is probably the first time that
| ever it occurred to friend or foe to
call old John Sherman "genteel," or did
the little imps who make witch work of
the types see chance to put in little
fine work on ''geniality!"
The time may come when emergration

The imp is busy in New England as

Mr.. Blaine becomes more emphatic in

as the rumors multiply that Mr.. Cleye-

| Democratic oval.-Worcester Post.
The intimation seems to be that Mr.
Blaine's declnation was due to fear of
meeting Grover Cleveland at the polls.
| This is ludicrous. The unknown Cleve-
| land was a tremendous fellow in 1884,
| but the known and once defeated Cleve-

| Blaine isn't afraid of Cleveland.
Won't George Fred Williams and Sena-

A local Christian Doctrine Society last
evening held mock convention, and after
profound deliberation and mastery argu-
