The tariff is the bulwark of Rhode
Islands productive industries. In no
other State in the Union is so large a
proportion of the population absolutely
dependent for the bread and butter of its
JfaIfy existence upon the maintenance Of
the Republican system. In no other
State is declaration in favor of "a
firm first step toward free trade" such
an impudent and reckless assault upon
the public veal.
1t was to be expected that the Repub-
lican State convention of Rhode Island
would speak in trumpet tones in favor
Of the system which is the corner stone
of the structure of the States prosperity,
and that reasonable expectation was not
disappointed.
The Democratic party in Rhode
Island has declared for free trade. The
Republican party has declared for pro-
lection. Those who believe in the lat
ter doctrine and who place principle
above partisanship should rally to the
support of the Republican ticket, by
whatever party name they may be
known,

PAyyTUCKET POLITICS.

The election Of delegates to the Demo-
cratic City Convention at the Demo
cratic primary meetings last Monday
evening completes the preparations of
both parties for the campaign up TO the
nomination for the assembly tickets,
which will be done by them at their re-
spective conventions next Saturday.
Both parties are now equally advanced
in the contest. Both have performed
their mission in the State Conventions
both have elected their delegates to the
city conventions, and alse their ward
and city committees. 1t now remains
to be seen what ratio the two assembly
tickets will bear to each other in point
of strength, for upon this the success or
defeat of the Republican party in a
great measure depends.
II is the general opinion among the
leading Republicans that, with the prop
er amount of work and earnest effort ON
its behalf, the Republican party stands
pretty good chance of coming off VIC
torious in Pawtucket, but it will be a
hard fought battle, strictly on party
lines, and purely partisan in its nature.
The widespread interest created in city
affairs since the last Inauguration of the
present city government, and the SEEM
ingly partisan nature Of the contest for
supremacy in the Board OF Aldermen
have done not little to unite the forces
of each party, and win the listless and
usually disinterested voters temporarily,
and perhaps permanently, to one side or
the other.
That this contest is purely on party
lines is proved conclusively by the fact
that resolutions commenting and sus-
tanning one side or the other We're passed
at the primary meetings Of both parties
Friday evening the Republicans of the
First Ward passed resolution COM
mending the upright and gentlemanly
course thus far pursued by Alderman
John +. Adams and the Republican
aldermen and councilmen Of the city
council, sucn IcrfUn being r0F tf1e best
interest of the city. and similar resolu-
tions were passed in all the other ward
caucuscs that evening except the Third.
Accordingly, at the caucuses last AIou-
day evening. the Democrats took occa-
sion to uphold The Mayor and the Demo

Perhaps the dangers to the country

A FITTING TRIBUTE.

One of the most fitting OF the several
graceful acts which marked the impress
sive convention of Rhode Island Repub-
licans yesterday, was the resolution in
troduced by Delegate Watson of Provi-
dence, and enthusiastically adopted, in
recognition of the public services of
Gov. Ladd. AS Delegate Williams OF
Bristol so well expressed it, the Repub-
lican party in this State owes much to
Gov. Ladd. He first accepted the guber-
Material nomination, and at the same
time assumed large share of the party
leadership, at time when there were
grave doubts whether the Republican
party was ever again to be, so to speak,
on ''war footing" The same personal
energy which has always characterized
Gov. Ladd in whatever he has undertaken
in the community, marked his leadership
and his administration of the executive
office; and to him presumably was due
much of the renewal OF party enthusi-
asm, the enlisting of the young men and
the reawakening of the lukewarm, that
followed the Republican victory of the
spring Of 1889. Better than this, how
ever, Gov. Ladd won favor among all
citizens of all parties, and the result of
his aggressive zeal in the public interest
was vote that was gratifyingly in
creased in 1890 and again in 1891.
He retires from Office with an envia-
BILE record as one of our most progress
sive and far-seeing Governors that has
ever graced the executive chair, and
with "A reputation within and without
the party for zeal and earnestness in be
half of whatever he believed to be for
the interest of Rhode Island and Rhode
Islanders. And Col. Watson's resolu-
tion was an appreciative expression of
the sentiments that were in the hearts
of orr citizens, both within and without
the Convention.

THE FLATTORM-THE ADMINIsTRA-
TION.

The Republican State convention has
endorsed in the most emphatic terms,
specific and general, the splendid admin
istration given to the country by Presi-
dent Harrison and his able coadjutors
II has called for the thanks of the
country to President Harrison and Mr.
Blaine for the splendid results of the
reciprocity policy enforced by the one
and inaugurated by the other. IL has
spoken of the administration of Presi-
dent Harrison as deserving the highest
degree of appreciation for the vigor,
wisdom and courage it has shown in the
conduct of all domestic and interna-
tional affairs and for its staunch and
hearty Americanism.
Less than this could not in justice be
said of one Of the wisest, purest and
mestH enlightened administrations the
country has ever known.

THE TICKET.

To Republican victory in Rhode
Island this spring it is not too much to
say that millions of loyal and earnest be-
levers in the policy of protection to
American industries and American wage
workers are looking as the signal gun
for the vigorous opening of an enthusi-
astic and triumphant campaign. They
must not be disappointed. Rhode
Islanders will rather exceed their expec-
tatons.
For lea6er in n campaign of principle,
of honesty, for n judicious and enlight-
ened State administration, for prosperity
and progress at home and the mainten-
ance and further development of sound
business methods in the conduct of the
national government, the convention
yesterday placed the standard in the
hands of a man who is typical of all
that is best in Rhode Island. Mr..
ID. Russell Brown will receive not only
thoroughly united party support, but
he will call out the enthusiastic per-
sonal endeavor of his fellow citizens
from end to end of the State who know
him as an upright and successful bust
ness man, loyal and public-spirited
Rhode Islander,- and IA consistent,
sincere and hearty believer in the prin-
ciples of Republicanism. whose sound
ness his twenty-five years experience ms
a manufacturer have amply demon
strated TO him. During his service in
the City Council of Providence Mr..
Brown proved himself n conscientious,
judicious and progressive legislator the
ringing cheers that yesterday shook the
hall at mention of his name are bright
and unmistakable augury of the success
SO near that every Republican feels it
in the air.
Col Bull, whoreceived the nomination
for lieutenant governor, has long and
honorable record of service in both
branches of the Legislature, and his
name is a tower of strength to his party.
Secretary Utter, Attorney General Bur
bank and General Treasurer Clark have
given evidence by their work in the past
of their especial competency for the
posts they have held and are now asked
to hold again. One and all they have
the hearty good will and the unqualified
support of every loyal Republican in the
State. The ticket is one that will elect
itself. Nevertheless, let hard and
wholesome work assure not only vic
tory, but an overwhelming one. Rhode
Island owes it to herself and to the ma
tion.

The old custom required that when a
child, having labored faithfully to ad-
vance his parents interests during mi.
nority, came to mans estate he was
entitled toa freedom suit and sum
of money, usually 800. This was form
ally provided for by contract in the case
of apprentices and bound children, and
was considered matter of courtesy
even in the case of Gown children" II
was customary, in the case of bound
girls, to provide two suits, one for Sun
day and one for week day service, besides
such sum of money as might be agreed
upon.
The old apprenticeship system is fall
ing into disfavor, and Town children I"
now hardly know what freedom suit
is. Yet it is still the custom to assume
that children of forehanded parents have
the right to some start in life, and there
are probably hundreds of minors in
Rhode Island who have tidy little bank
accounts in their names, to which their
small earnings and occasional gifts are
from time to time added. Parents watch
with pride the growth of these little
boards and often strain point to swell
them. Thus, when to Richard Croker,
the great Tammany chief, Mayor Grant
once offered several thousand dollars,
that incorruptible statesman magnani-
mously replied: "No, Hughey, it
amt DO correct caper. If you give me
de 10000 case, de papers IL git onto
it. See? Dere's F'lossie, dough. She's
yer God-child. See? Flossie, how
much is dere in in your bank count !?
tree seventy-five? Cunnin' kid, amt it,
Hughey?" And so the money was
given to Flossie and the New York re-
porters, many of whom, having no
children, do not appreciate how cunnin'
kids pull at de heart strings, see? had
the bad taste to criticise the action.
Something of the same mental process
must have taken place in the mind of
Lieut.. Gov. w. II. G. Wardwell when
Sl9O was pressed upon him. He told the
NEWS interviewer that he didn't think
he ought TO take the money. Between
the printed lines we can read a course of
thought something like this: "No,
can't take pay for that. am already
under salary from the State. But Bessie
really earned that money by protect
ing me against the bunco steerers. That
was close shave, though, on Broadway,
when the man with the slouch hat fol-
lowed us! / gripped her little hand
tightly and she looked the ruffian fear
lcssly in the eye, and he shrunk away
abashed. Yes, will. ] will take the
extra 800 and add it to Bessie's bank
account. II is she who has earned it,"
If Mr.. Wardwell reasoned like this, and
acted as he reasoned, there isn't father
of family in Rhode Island who will
judge him very harshly.
