DO YOUR DUTY.

There IL yet time to go and cast
vote for the plurality amendment. We
all know what a necessity 1t is and what
O relief 1t will be to our election system.
A glance at the last Spring contests and
the trouble engendered by them should be
enough TO awaken everv voter TO a sense
OF duty owed not only 20 himself but to
the State. The long. drawn. out, useless
and senseless contest In the Second Ward
is a burning example OF our antiquated
and out -gfonn n system. We beg OF every
voter, whet her he be Democrat or Repub-
lican, to go to the polls before sun-down
and vote for the amendment. DO not let
1t go by default. When this boon that we
have been looking for and longing for
and advocating for years is In our grasp,
let us not allow 1t 10 escape. IL will be
worth its weight In gold to US when 1t IL
added to the fundamental law OF the
State

vOTEn
VOTE I

Let not voter In the Sec nd Ward for
get TO vote. The regular Democratic
ticket must and should be erected. 1t is
composed OF respectable men @ho will
ably represent the ward. The self-seek-
ing and avaricious politician should be
roundly beaten. Elect men who are
straig ht forward In all their dealings,
who do not bolt and who do not try by
trickery, and under cover OF Republican
ism to sneak Into Office. Those who voted
against Cleveland and Davis defeated the
party in the Spring and damned the party
on the seventh OF this month should
themselves be defeated.

The "hasty legislation" idea WAS again
asssiled last evening and a vindicstion OF
MIR. o'Brien's position in the matter came
from an unexpected source during the
course OF the meeting OF the Common
Council. The City Hall site resolution,
because Of the mad rush to pass ii at the
last meeting, without a chance TO examine
or consider II, was found upon exsmina-
tion by Mayor Brown to be fatally de.
fective and was returned by him for cor
rection. The "unhorsed leader" from the
Fourth Ward, Notwithstanding this re.
buke, rushed through other matters with.
out reference.

The Westerly Sun, Rep, says OF the
plurality amendment: at will do away
with such long. drawn-out contests as
Pswtucket has endured all this past year,
and will prevent complications similar to
those which arose at Newport last May.
The amendment ought to be adopted, and

THE NEW TARIFF BILL.

Certainly the Ways and Means Com
mittee OF Congress has done It's part OF
the tsriff reform work with commend
able promptness. II remains for Con-
gress Itself to proceci with tho same
recog milton OF th pu lie demand that
there shall be a speedy ard definite set
tlement OF the issue. Ersiness interests
the country over, now reviving and fac
ing an immediate future hi, h seems full
OF promise, would be greatly hampered
and set back by any protracted period OF
uncertainty aud party laughing @. Wash
ington.
The new tariff bill seems TO have been
drawn on lines coincident witt hose of
the Democratic platform. 1t = given out
that 1t is the people who are ,o 20 pro-
tected now, and not the individual back
ers and promoters OF favored Industries.
This rs he spirit OF real tariff rosorm. 1t
is what the voters asked for IL 1890 and
again in 1892.
II Is too early TO speak in moro than this
general way OF the measure proposed by
the Committee. The detail given out to-
day must be carefully studi 4 in all their
bearings before IL can be ehnitely seen
In how far the Committee has performed
Its duty effectively as we'll q, promptly.
The verdict which pubic opiE Ion will then
render Will guide Conc cess in its
deliberations on the measure.

The treasurer gives bond of $780,

should prove defaulter the treasurer
would be obliged to make up the def
