"A meetlng was nelu In Drowning uaiA
In East Greenwich last evening, for the
purpose of forming Young Republican
club in that town The meeting organ
ized by the selection of George II. Fidler
as chairman and William Browning as
secretary.
Col. Henry r. Tiepke Of Pawtucket was
introduced and explained the aims and
purposes Of Republican League clubs at
considerable length.
They do not further the ambitions OF
any one man or set of men In their aspira-
tions for party endorsement Their work
rather begins after nominations have
be en- made. They seek to educate the
Young voters and those soon to become
voters in the principles and policy Of
Republicanism; TO assist the foreign born
resident to American citizenship, and to
educate him in the intelligent discharge
OF it's duties.
Young men are the bone and sinew of
the organization, though no Republican
is b ,rred from membership on account OF
greater age.
Gen. Thomas w. Chace also addressed
the meeting. promising substantial aid
and support from the older members OF
the party in the town, aud remarks were
also made by several of the young men
present.
1t was voted to proceed to the organiza-
ton OF club. William Browning was
elected president, aud George X. Z. Hud-
son, secretary.
1t was voted that n committee Of five
be appointed to make nominations FIR

tion and bylaws for adoption.
Messrs. Ii. Il. Tisdale, George NJ. West,

gentlemen present evincing considerable
Interest i'm the cause OF Republicanism.

Der Of the Women's Republican Associ-
alton. gave social to those ladies
in sympathy with that movement. at her
residence yesterday afternoon, between
the hours Of 4 and 8. Several new Nom
bers were added TO the society.
IL is understood that arrangements
have been made for the continuation of
the Pendulum, at least temporarily, and
that 1t will be issued today as usual,
though perhaps in an abridged form.
The organizing committee of the Young
Republican Guard held meeting In
lawtucket. IL was reported by the sub
committee on u. iforms that outfits of the
same design as distinguished this com
pany four years ago could he obtained.
The Guard will have for It's captain
this year Charles Rttman of the Signal
Corps. Charles 4. Ptrvear, the former
captain, declining TO accept the position
owing to the press of business. Charles

1t is now reported that two more of the
Democratic war horses in RHODE ISLAND
have ceased to love each otner Col.
Francis l.. O'Reilly OF Woonsocket has
resigned from the Democratic city COM
mittee, aud it Is considered certain that
his resignation Is the result of u row with
John j. Heffernan. the leading man in
the control OF the CaU.
1t seems to be case of an aggressive
young politician getting too strong for
the older one and putting him in the back
ground and Colonel OReilly has not
only gotten out of the committee but
declines To take part In Democratic po.iti-
cal affairs any iolger.
1t seems also that there Is dispute
about the distribution of 5000 sent at the
last election by the State Central Com
mittee which was given Ito prevent
fraud" In the state. What became of all
that money Is now the question and some
people wadt to know just how much Of
tt al firm ia
still available to prevent fraud"
