WHY DO THEY COME ?

No one will quarrel with or criticise
the Hamilton, Ont, Spectator for Wig
orously opposing the annexation of
Canada to the United States; but the
Spectator, if it wishes to serve the
cause in which it is so much interested,
should remember that misrepresenta-
ten is dangerous and generally defeats
its own purpose.
In recent issue the Spectator, in a
grandiloquent editorial, declares: 1.-The
average condition of Canadians is far
above that of their neighbors." Hard,
incontrovertable facts prove the con
trary. IL the condition of the Cana
dian is so much better than the Ameri-
can, how does it happen that they flock
over the boarder by tens of thousands
to find employment in the United
States? The nature of the working
man is the same the world over. He
leaves his own country only because he
believes he can better his condition, and
it is undoubtedly because the Canadian
can earn more, save more and live bet
ter here than at home, that he expatri-
ates himself either temporarily or per-
manently.
If the Spectator will send one Of its
bright young men to Rhode Island he
will find thousands of Canadians work
ing on the railroads, the highways and
in the mills, who will tell him they
came to the United States solely be.
cause the conditions here are in every
way more favorable to the wage-earner
than in the place of their birth.
Let the Spectator fight annexation to
its hearts content, but let it pay at
least little respect to the truth and
deal with facts.

IN MASSACHUSETTS,.

Politicians in Massachusetts are al
ready canvassing the governorship ques-
ton. The annual report that Governor
Russell will not accept another nomi-
nation is prevalent. That causes spec
ulation, some early planning and the
indulgence of hopes.
The ID emocrats are offered the choice
between 10. Quincy and Mayor Mat
thews of b ston, couple of smart
young men who have contrived to make
politics pay them handsomely, in cash
and in rep utation. They cannot draw
Republican votes, as BILLY" Russell
has, because they have none Of his
popularity, and cannot get it.
On the Republican side there is not
very much talk about candidates. 1t is
takon for granted that Editor Barrett
will want the nomination. He has
already given notice that he intends to
carry his congressional fight into the
state campaign and constitute himself
political sore thumb.
II might be the best thing possible
for the Republican party in Massachu-
setts to devote one campaign to the
special work of convincing Mr.. Barrett
that his ambition to hold Office is some
what in advance of the disposition of
the voters to bestow Office upon him.
Other Republican candidates have
not yet developed. There are plenty of
them. and a pleltiful crop will spring
up between now and time to think
seriously about the matter.
II Governor Russell retires there will
be an opportunity offered for the Re-
publicans of Massachusetts to come into
their own again, If such uneasy self
seekers as Mr.. Barrett can be suppressed.
There ought to be an effort made to re-
claim the state. Safe elections this
year will help to influence the next
national campaign.

THE BORDEN TRIAL.


The trial of Lizzie Borden at New
Bedford has certainly opened with the
promise that it may not be stretched
out to the disgraceful length that many
of the murder trials that have attracted
the attention of the country of late have
been.
The prompiness with which the jury
was secured, and the other signs OF
vigor that were made apparent yester-
day, are hopeful. The fact. If it proves
TO be tact, that the prosecution has
but little evidence that the public does
not already know Of to introduce also
assures speedy trial.
The proceedings opened today with a
dramatic incident that may assure the
world that Lizzie Borden is actually
like other women. She tainted in court.
There is of course no hint Of the
probable result of the trial, though the
impression that the accused WON an
cannot be convicted grows more firm in
the public mind.
The jury seems to be made up of men
who will be naturally disposed to give
every eaetabt its full value, hut who
would be infexible il the evidence war
rants conviction.
The interest in the trial is widespread
almost universal-and nothing in the
line of news has been so eagerly sought
for since the Graves trial mt Denver,
and in many particulars this exceeds

"Act, Act, In the Living Present."
TO the Editor of the Neior
Your excellent editorial Monday night re-
specting the movement to send an agent from
Providence 10 the Worlds fair met my hearty
approval. was glad also that you took occa-
sion 10 present for consideration the apathy
OF our citizens In matters of public interest.
Nothing but unccasing agitation will ever
disturb their sluggishness. and arouse our
people from their spirltless slumber. IL Is an
indication Of decrepitude In human life when
progress ceases and the desire to be let alone
predominates. But Providence is yet young
and ought TO thrust aside every intimation OF
the weakness attendant upon age.
Persons advanced I'm life often find II useful
and expedient to counsel with the young who
have come more recently and with another
perspective TO the problems OF life. The
young cities of our country, which have come
forth with n swiftness and splendor unri-
vailed and matchless. I'm tn exercise OF their
resistless energy, put their agents and repre-
sentatives into every centre of trade and
every avenue of commerce, and draw to
themselves In hundred ways the life blood
OF art and trafic. This enterprise Is not
new and untried device. 1t is project which
has served our young and thrifty rivals and
enabled them TO outstrip us.
/ think we ought TO remember that the
Genoese boy whom the civilized world Will
this year proclaim to be one Of the uncrowned
kings OF men, conceived the great thought on
reaching India by the west, chiefly because
his native city was the unsuccessful rival OF
Venice for the trade of India He failed In
the search for India, but his accomplishment
was infinitely greater than his most sanguine
hope. Let the progress in this western world
as il is exhibited at the Worlds fair, tell the
story of his achievement, and show how much
more important TO mankind this continent Is
than the products and wealth of India.
Westward the course OF empire takes its way.
Her fundamental are the demands Of trade.

to the constitution of the United states; they
weave the nations together in friendship and

The REAL MOTIVE.

In discussing the action Of the house
of representatives at Newport last week
the New York Commercial Advertiser
very truly says; I; The offer of the
Democrats to go to the courts is mis-
leading. 1t is a move for delay, a Gun.
ming dodge to carry popular sentiment,
and adopted in a hurry as way out of
their embarrassment"
Since the propagation of the assembly
by the governor the Democrats have done
considerable talking, as result of
which better and more accurate idea
can be formed of what their real inten-
tions were. They now say boldly and
without qualification of any kind, that
from the very outset they determined to
unseat Republicans enough to give
them control of the grand committee.
To the party at large it mattered very
little who should be made victims of
this high-handed policy, but Colonel
Honey had score to pay off and was
permitted to name the Republicans to
be sacrificed.
1t was out of feeling of petty spite
and personal vengeance that the coll
onel pounced upon Mr.. .Landers. The
jamestown representative was a mem
Der OF the committee which recon-
mended the unseating Of Honey and
his colleagues after the revelations of
the formers ballot marking and ballot
burning had been made. The name
of Mr.. Landers was not stricken from
the roll therefore because there was
any cloud on his title to the seat, but
because Colonel Honey desired to
punish him for his action at previous
session of the assembly.
There is one fact in connection with
this carnival Of disorder which should
not be lost sight of. The Democratic
leaders were well aware that Senator
Watson and Representative Barber,
both Republicans, would vote with
them in grand committee. These two
votes would give them working
majority. Why then did they defy
the law and adopt an illegal and
revolutionary policyf The answer is
furnished by member of the steering
committee who says that his colleagues
and himself were not sure that Watson
and Barber would vote with the
Democrats for all of the party
candidates. That is, they would
support those who had been given
plurality, but could not be depended
upon to stand by the whole ticket. He
further explained that If Mr.. Baker, Mr..
Young and MIR. Aldrich had been elected
in grand committee and Mr.. Heffernan
OF Woonsocket left out the Democrats
could not carry another election in this
state because what he was pleased 10
term the Irish vote" would ldesert the
party.
Here then is the explanation of the
Democratic policy. With the way open
to them TO elect majority OF their
candidates in legal and proper manner
they decided on a revolutionary policy

THE WELCOME NEWS comes from the Re-
publican natione comm ittee that New
York city is at last to have Republican
headquarters where men of counsel and
action may confer and plan for party vic

should be. New York is the pivotal state
today, just as she has been in the past, and
she will hold that position in the next
campaign. II Republicans are to win they
must carry the Empire state, and the time
to begin the work is now.

bulk of the amount sent away, does not
