Mr.. Hugh j. Carroll of Pawtucket,
now that the municipal campaign has
fairly opened, is resorting to his old
trick Of stirring up race prejudice.
Through his personal organ he accuses
the Republicans of the Third ward Of
packing their caucus with Democrats
from the Second ward for the purpose
Of defeating the nomination Of British
American.
This is clap-trap of the most approved
Carrollian brand but il will deceive no
one nor will it help Mr.. Robinson's
chances in whose interest the palpable
political falsehood was doubtless set
afoat. British-Americans know Car
roll and are familiar with his methods.
Moreover they are too sensible to be
caught by the pretended friendship of
one who has repeatedly denounced and
reviled them.
The man who seeks to arouse race or
religious antagonism for political or
other purposes in this free country
should be promptly and effectively re-
buked. He is no better than dema-
gogue and is a menace to the peace
and welfare of any community. But
this is Carrolrs usual course when a
campaign is to be fought. BY following
it he proves himself to be little better
than q ward heeler who will stop at
nothing to get vote for the party that
employs him.
AS we have previously taken occasion
to say, Mr.. Robinson is a man of good
moral character, but of unfortunate as
sociations. In the present canvass his
defeat would, under any circumstances
be looked for, but the fact that he is
championed by Carroll, was nominated
through his influence, and will be his
puppet in case of success will undoubt.

apparent that the ringsters were fright
ened. That they are in worse plight
than was at first supposed is shown by a
circular recently sent out to the liquor
dealers in the city of churches.
This circular is issued by the Dem o.
cratic campaign COMMITTEES OF which
Thomas Dempsey is the chairman, and
contains this truly touching appeal; "You
are no doubt aware that under the pre-
sent Democratic administration in this
city your business has been protected.
There have been no harsh measures used
to suppress it, although the laws "a they
stand are very oppressive. 1t should be
your duty TO see your friends and have
them register and vote the Democratic
ticket on election day."
Here is frank and unquessionably
true statement. The liquor interest anl
the low dives which are the resort of
the vicious and criminals have been
protected. The laws against them
have not been enforced because Mayor
Boody and his Democratic confreres
were looking forward to the time when
the dive keepers vote, and his ill-gotten
money would be needed to re-elect them
1t is a scandalous condition of affairs.
indeed, but revelations of this kind will
only go to strengthen the hands of those
who have undertaken the task of rid
ding Brooklyn of the harpies
who have plundered her treasury
and disgraced her before her sister
municipalities of the nation. Let Boss
Mclaughlin, Boody and the rest of the
corrupt ring feel the full weight of the
peoples just anger.

OVERTHROW OF HERO WORSHIP

Tom Reed can always be depended
upon to say the right thing at the right
time, and his speech in Boston last night
was no exception to the rule. Cool,
witty and sarcastic. he has way OF
forcing home plain truths upon his
audience that is convincing and in
eontroyertible. He punctnred the hero
worship of Cleveland in most mastery
fashion when he declared that "we are
told that ell this is due to single man.
For whatever firmness the president has
exhibited let us give him the credit
which belongs to any man who rises
superior to such party but let us make
no mistake, for there lies at the fouiida-
ton of our system of government no
worship of man, but an honest belief in
the intelligence and good sense of the
people,"
Thousands upon thousands OF voters,
led away by an ideal Cleveland held up
to them by men whose calmer Judgment
is now asserting itself voted last fall for
Grover Cleveland, because they believed
that he was superior to his party, and
could be depended upon to rule indie
pendent of it, now see that they placed
reliance upon broken reed. The
Cleveland of their hopes and the real
article are two entirely different person
ages. Cleveland has revealed him
self as being inferior and not
superior to his party. He has
already lost the support of thousands of
men who one year ago regarded him
almost as a demi-god. He stands dis
credited among his own party associates,
disavowed by the large independent fol-
lowing and despised as the rewarder of
bribes by prostituting the federal patro.
mage to carry out bargains of the most
infamous sort.
1t has been bitter lesson to the hero
worshippers and one for which the
country is paying dearly. His "bold
stand for honest money Of which we
have heard so much would amount to
nothing but for the fact that the Repub.
licans in congress in obedience to the
will of the people and in the hope of
keeping the finances of the country on
the sound basis where they have placed
it, has given Cleveland an opportunity te
pose as leader, when in reality he has
been merely figurehead, powerless in
himself to accomplish anything.

NO SETTLEMENT YET.

Yesterdays mass meeting of the
Olneyville strikers developed nothing
that gives encouragement to hope for
an early settlement of the trouble.
Richard McGuy is still in control, and
thus far he has carried out his asinine
policy of waiting for the manufacturers
to take the initiative.
In the meantime the operatives are
pinched by poverty; day by day they
are getting nearer the point when, how
ever much pride or self respect they
may have, they will have to sue for bread
or starve.
This is the situation, and Richard
McGuy knows it, but like all profess
sional labor agitators he enjoys the
prominence he has gained too much to
permit him to bring it to an end 10y
allowing the misguided and unfortunate
people to meet their employers in an
effort to effect compromise.
When will honest toilers recognize the
folly of submitting to the dictation of
men whose business is to create discord
and foment strife between the worker
and his employer?

But the secretary saw alone the serious
and unfortunate nature OF the report
taken by Admiral Stanton and how

no time in promptly cabling to Rio de

THE NEWPORT ELECTION.

While their failure to elect their
candidate for mayor yesterday must be
disappointing to the Newport Republi-
cans they have reason to congratulate
themselves on their success in carrying
the city council. This insures for
another year at least an honest, safe and
capable government and one in which
the taxpayers have shown by their bal
lots they have entire confidence.
1t does not follow that because Mr..
Sanborn was not elected the Republi-
can party has not in its ranks majori-
ty of the voters in the city by the sea.
Indeed, the result yesterday is due
wholly to the unusually large number
of Republicans who failed to
go to the polls as com
parison with last years returns
readily shows. Mayor Horton received
in 1892 total of ,906 while yesterday
Mr.. Sanborns vote was only 1872, a
falling off of 234. Less than half OF
this number would have given him a
clear majority, SO that. as has already
been said, Mr.. Sanborn's defeat is di-
rectly traceable to the stay-at-home
members of his own party.
There is reason to believe that had a
little more systematic work been done
there would not have been this large
percentage of Republicans who by fail
ing to exercise the franchise gave half
a vote to their political opponents.
Newport is Republican city on full
vote and knowing this the party leaders
should have taken measures to bring out
their strength. In no other way can a
victory be secured as, unfortunately,
there are many citizens who unless their
interest is aroused are liable to fail in
the performance of this plain and i'm.
portant duty.
II is to be hoped the Republicans will
learn the lesson so clearly defined yes
terday that a comprehensive. effective
and harmonious organization is neces-
sary to success. They should begin
upon it at once so as to be ready next
April to do their share towards main
tanning a Republican government and
vindicating Republican principles.

traordinary Degree.
LYONS, Oct. %. The greatest enthusiasm
was displayed by enormous crowds on the
arrival of Admiral Avelan and the Russian
officers here. As Admiral Avelan passed,
the crowd surged forward to get look at
him. One woman was swept from heI
feet and fell The crowd surged forward
and she was trampled upon and killed.
In some instances the Russomania has
reached wonderful height. While the
Russian officers were on their way to
Versailles, woman, who stood on the
bridge over the river, and from which she
saw the train containing the Russians
passing, with the Russian and French
flags, shouted, ''See the Russians and
die" and then jumped into the river. She
was drowned, but her body was afterward
recovered, and it was found upon examin-
ing her garments that her chemise con-
sisted of a Russian flag and her petticoat
of French and Russian flags sewn to-
gether.
Since the arrival of the Russian squadron
in French waters Admiral Avelan has re-
ceived l9, 900 letters, of which 10000 were
from women. Most of these communica-
tions requested that he would send them
lock of his hair.
