The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1892-04-26

The disgraceful scenes enacted at last
nights school meeting in Central Falls
lend point and substance to the argu-
ments in favor Of the passage by the
Legislature of the bill to regulate such
meetings in the future. Instead of an
orderly assembly of voters, there was
bowling mob led and controlled by the
same element which was repudiated at
the last election. the same which tried
last year to take by force what it could
not earn by ballots, the same
which more recently urged con-
vict to register and vote i'm defiance
of the law. In the mob which
the moderator" recognized were non-
voters in plenty record vote was re-
fused on the motion to adjourn when
asked; second motion to adjourn,
which is always in order, was declared
out of order; only Democrats voted on
the farcical nominations pandemonium
ruled.
The new law proposes that school elec-
tions in the town of Lincoln shall be
conducted by ballot during the day. 1t
is good measure. 1t is a necessary
measure, If scenes like that of last night
are not to be repeated.

SAYS the Journal, The effort of the
Republican managers 70 organize the
voaly college boys of the country in sup
pert of their ticket is not the best
proof that could be wished of
q change Of opinion in Republican
circles as to the value of the en-
dorsement of the intellectual classes. !.
Does it not occur to our Mugwump
friend that its effort to cry down the en-
thusiasms and the aspirations ana the
high ideals Of youth, upon which any
political party must depend to help it
keep its honesty of purpose and its
purity OF aim, is the best proof that
could be wished OF the sourness and
EMBELLISHMENTS of its cynicism? Or
is it with the Journal a case of grapes
out OF reach. when it stigmatizes as
''vealy" the young men who now pro-
test In our halls of learning that, what
ever text books may be forced into their
hands, majority Of them learn from
their pages other wisdom than that of
free wool?

NO ELECTION.

A third attempt has been made to
elect the remaining Representatives to the
General Assembly from this city, and
that third attempt has failed. The Re-
publican party must bear no small meas
ure of the disgrace of such failure. 1t
had much to gain by securing seats for
its candidates. No other party had
anything at stake or any motive COM
parable with that which should have
actuated every loyal Republican
and brought him early to the
polls. BY no efforts could the Demo-
Gratis have overcome the Republican
majority in the Legislature. The State
election relegated them hopelessly to the
rear and gave them every excuse for
slackening useless exertions. The Pro-
hibitionis.s and the followers of the
Peoples party had not the faintest hope
of placing single man in the Legisla-
tive body, and that they came out in
larger numbers than at the second elec-
tion is tribute to the force of their
convictions, which, however mischiev-
ous in its results as defeating the object
of the polling and putting the city to the
expense of q fourth election, should
shame the stay-at-home Republicans.
In common with the Democratic vote
the Republican vote fell off. And yet
consider the situation. 1t was to the
Republican party, and to that party al
most altogether, that the election was
Of consequence. We have a legislative
majority, but in the lower house it is
not strong working majority, and it
ought to be a matter of conscience to
every Republican to make it so. 1t is
not the part of political prudence or COM
mon sense to suffer ourselves to be
left at the mercy of absenteeism
or illness, or the countless accidents
which are likely at any time to deplete
the effective force of working body. 1t
is not practical politics it is not COM
mon sense. We need those nine Repre-
sentatives, and there is no reason but
the culpable negligence of Republicans
why we should not yesterday have
elected at least those who had pluralities
Aside from questions Of general State
policy, Providence should be represented
by Republicans. The interests of the
largest city IN the State should be in the
hands Of the party which is trustworthy
on economic and industrial questions.
Since once again the attempt must be
made, let it not again fail. Republi-
cans, repent of yesterday and stand to
your colors on the next opportunity.
We must elect our Representatives !!

From this table it will be seen that
Germany more than holds its own, that
Sweden and Norway and the Neither
lands increase somewhat, that De nmark
and Great Britain hold up fairly well
for the nine months and that the utterly
disproportionate and alarming infux of
Italians is greatly lessening. These are
all tendencies in the right direction.
Switzerland, which sends an extremely
valuable contingent already trained in a
republican form of government and
nearly all educated in public schools,
shows an increase for nine months, bat
decrease for the last one of that period.
So much on the right side of the ac-
count. On the other there is the slight
increase Of Austrians Gncluding the ut
terly alien and unassimilable Magyars)
the much larger increase of Russians
and this is, by the way, the very worst
return in the table-and the increase of
Poles. There is note Of alarm, too, in
the increase of immigration from "all
other countries" which include the un-
speakable Turk, the cringing Armenian,
whom in Providence we have learned to
distrust, the lecherous, leprous and inn
moral Chinese.
Because the major part of the new
population is so good is no reason why
we should not wish il better. II must
be remembered that, if steps are taken
now to better sort the emigrants that
arrive in future, the harm already done
will be less than it appears. The Ger
mans, Scandinavians. Northern Italians,
English, Irish, Danish, Scottish, Dutch,
Swiss and French-naming the COM
paratively desirable strains in order of
their relative number-come here TO
stay, and either bring wives and child
rem or marry here. They are, without
many exceptions, educated to certain
extent, often highly. The majority of
them had limited suffrage at home.
On the other hand, the more undesir-
able elements do not 80 often come 10
stay. The Sicilians, Poles, Hungarians
make a practice Of coming In the spring
and going back in the autumn, spending
usually every second or third winter ut
home. Cinnamon who have grown rich
at washee washee go home TO live. and
as few OF them have children here the
! total number is much less than ten years

and though the life Of the Kaiser is in no
such danger AS daily menaces the imper-

his outgoings and incomings are sur
rounded, are increased constantly and

that is threatened, bloody as may be some
phases of the threatened social revo.
luton" it is gaunt poverty, stark want,
that has infiamed the minds of the
people to such an unholy and riotous
heat, and Americans should bethink
themselves with serious care before they
consent to deliver over this prosperous
nation to the control of party that
would inaugurate an industrial
and financial policy that would speedily
reduce it to the same condition as that
of those peoples across seas at whose
wrestles with the forces of anarchy and
disruption we now look on aghast, and,
though afar, yet dismayed.

County?


Who Comprisss IL In Cleveland's Home
County?
In political importance Erie county
ranks next to New York and Kings. 1t
casts 10000 votes. pretty evenly divided
between the two parties; and whatever
Of interest takes place within its borders
Is likely to affect the sentiments and
suffrages Of many citizens in the west
ern portion Of New York.
Prior to Cleveland's departure from
Buffalo under an adverse majority Of
1853 given in favor of his Republican op-
ponent (Hill carried Buffalo by 5,372 in
1888, and Flower carried it by 1,077 in
1917, the Cleveland Democracy, so
called, of Erie county consisted of three
persons, M. de Buffalo himself, William
Stradivarius Bissell, his devoted friend
Locke, the foe of all organized effort in
American politics. and the lusty cham
pion of those citizens whose wishes are
recorded on election night under the
heading of "blank, scattering and de-
fective." In departing from Buffalo for
Washington Cleveland did not procure
o round trip ticket. His pasteboard
called for his transportation one way
only. He hoped and expected to go to
Washington for q long stay. Thus it
was that in March, 1885. the Cleveland
Democracy, so called, of Buffalo was
reduced by 1914 per cent Bissell and
Locke remained there. They have been
there since.
In February Brother Locke, stirred to
activity by the loud outcries of the
prophets friends at this end of the
political line, began enrolling" persons
named in the Buffalo city directory. and
at last accounts the enrolment was not
yet complete.
In this diligent compilation Of names
it was popularity supposed w. Stradiva-
RUS Bissell was assisting, but according
to an interview with that gentleman
published in the columns of The Trib-
une, Mr.. Bissell is not ''in it." We
quote from The Tribune these signif-
cant words, which are justly entitled to
recognition as constituting the collective
utterance of so per cent. of the Cleve-
land Democracy in Erie county, Mr.
Locke being the other so.
81 am out of politics." declared Mr.
Bissell tersely but tardily. III did not

politics. did not see ex-Mayor Grace
or z. Ellery Anderson, leaders of the
May convention movement. don't
know how that movement is progress
ing. II doesn't interest me and l am
not bothering my head about it."
There is deep substratum of bed rock
political sense In these remarks of Mr.
Bissell. They reveal the gentleman in
new light, but at the same time they
disclose yawning gap in the Cleveland
Democracy. SO called, of Erie county.
and thus impose upon Mr.. Locke the re-
sponsibility of constituting tho whole
May movement organization in Ere,
from which henceforth he is insepara-
BILE, and which is equally inseparable
from him.
Only Locke is left! Being left. it may
be added, appears to be the final politi-
cal condition of every partisan. high or
low, naughty or humble. truculent or
submissive, Of the prophet, whose own

Hill was an irresponsible man. He said
that his actions Of late had suggested
the giving way of his mental faculties,
and that his anxiety to secure the presi-
