If the Republicans of N,wport do
their duty to-day they Will elect Mr..
Sanborn and majority of the members
of the city council. The News is con-
vinced they are aroused and determined
to defeat Mr.. Fearing and through him
Col. Honey who. as has previously been
shown, is really the dominant factor in
this canvass.
The Republicans have everything in
their favor. Their candidates are clean,
reputable and capable men who enjoy
the confidence and respect OF the COM
munity. More than that it is well un-
derstood their election will insure an
honest and progressive administration
free from the partisauship and demagog-
ism which the success of the Demo-
Gratis would bring about.
The weather clerk has been kind to
the Republicans in furnishing an ideal
Indian summer day for the election.
This gives encouragement to hope that
the number Of stay-at-homes will be
small and the Republican majority COR

and there is not the slightest question
that the pledge will be redeemed.
There is in Pawtucket as in this city
serious complaints of the unequal dis
tribution Of the burdens of taxations
1t is claimed, and justly so, that mil
lions Of property that should be taxed
escape assessment year after year while
the burden on real estate owners Is
raised to meet the constantly growing
expense of maintaining the municipal
government and making needed public
improvements.
This is all true enough, but some In
considerate people lay the blame on the
sh ulders of the assessors. These
gentlemen are in no way responsible.
The trouble arises from the provisions
of the general law which exempts from
taxation property that in all other states
is liable to assessment. For instance.
stock in railroad corporations, although
held here, cannot be taxed because the
statute provides that no assessment
shall be levied on stock that is liable to
be taxed In any other state. Thus q
man may be worth a million in divi-
dend-paying shares and enjoy all the
advantages which the city furnishes
without paying cent of taxes on his
holdings.
Providence has long felt the noed OF a
revision and joint special committee
is now studying the subject, the pur-
pose being ultimately to bring the mat
ter before the general assembly. Paw
tucket should follow the same course.
BY uniting with this city it may be
possible to secure from the legislature a
revision of the laws so that the burden
of taxation will be more equitably and
justly distributed.

The Republicans Of Pawtucket have
nominated an unusually strong ticket
for the city council, and one that is
certain to be elected. Indeed. there is
the best of reason for the belief that this
year the partys majority in the board of
aldermen will be increased by the elec-
tion Of General William r. Walker, who
is the candidate from the fifth ward.
In this ward the Democrats have a
majority aud until year ago succeeded
in electing their candidates. Last No
vember, however, Mr.. o'Reilly by the
warden's return had but one majority.
The reason for this falling off was that
the sensible and reputable Democrats
were tired of being represented in the
higher branch of the city government by
a mau VIGOROUSLY unfit for the position,
and they joined with the Republicans in
an endeavor to elect candidate who
had the confidence and esteem OF the
public.
This year Mr.. O'Reilly is again slated
for the nomination and the Republicans,
with the independent Democrats, en-
couraged by their success in practically
wiping out his majority, propose TO de.
feat him aud elect General Walker.
That the Republicans are alive 10 the
necessity Of an economical administra-
tion ia signally shown by the adoption
by all the caucuses of resolution
instructing the nominees in case Of their
election to oppose all expenditures of
money in excess Of the income Of the
city. Thus the Republicans pledge
themselves 30 a pay-as-you-go policy
which the citizens have long demanded,

To recall q letter once mailed Is almost as

orce uttered, judging from the following
description Of the process given by an ex-
change: The sender must appear at the
postoffice and is handed blank to fill out.
In this he must state when and where he
mailed the letter, how it was addressed,
must describe the envelope, state the
amount of postage prepaid and testify
shat the above mentioned letter was writ

to recall it for the following reason" and
then state the reason, which is usually
'mailed by mistake" He must then sign
his name, so that the handwriting may be
compared with that on the letter. and sign
o receipt.
II the address cannot be shown to be his
handwriting or is printed or typewriter,
he must describe some peculiarities about
the envelope sufficiently to identify it. II
he Is unable to do this, the letter Is refused,
unless the postmaster knows the applicant
and Is satisfied concerning his good inten-
tions. II he is satisfied, he asks for state
ment concerning the contents and Is Obliged
to open the letter and read portions Of it IN
the postmaster's presence to prove that 1t Is
the one he described. But IL the letter has
been sent away the process of recalling IL is
still more difficult. A similar blank has to
be filled out and a minute description tel
egraphed at the sender's expense to the post
master at the office of its destination. II
discovered in time, the letter is then inter.
cepted and sent to the department at Wash

SPECIMEN STONES.


Interesting Facts About Fine Gems That
Are Knowa to Few Besides Experts-
"Before the existence of specimen
stones becomes, through the drain OF them
to America, a thing OF the past for US 1t may
be we'll to say few words about things
which very few persons have ever seen and
henceforward have little chance of SEEING"
remarks London journal as prelude to
the following rarely known facts The
words specimen stone" explain that it is
q gem Of the utmost perfection, but few
know how rare aud precious it is and how
little it differs to the eye Of any but an cx-
pert from an ordinary example Of its kind.
Specimen stones are masculine luxuries.
They are never set, because even the most
delicate setting might hide defects which
would make them comparatively vaiueless.
The desire TO possess them constitutes the
last infirmity Of noblemen, for not only are
they the most concentrated possible form
of property. but the appreciation of them is
a most exclusive form of culture. IL may
seem strange, but it is true, that there are
probably not so persons in England who can
tell diamond worth 9100 carat from one
worth five and twenty, and of these 80 not
a dozen are jewelers..
The trade in specimen stones Is wholly
in the hands of four or five great firms, and
minor dealers, who have no custom for this
class Of gems, know almost as little about
them as the laity They have no opportu-
nifty for the necessary training. 1t takes
years of practice, with such rarity Of oppor-
tunity as the market affords, to train the
eye to recognize exactly the orthodox color
of ruby, emerald or sapphire, and to dis
tinguish a brilliant of the purest water
from an ordinary 'flne stone" demands a
delicacy Of vision which most persons could
never acquire.
Stones may be divided into four distinct
classes. Poor stones. obviously bad in col
or and full of clouds, flaws" and "feath-
ers," may be bought Zone marvels who
buys them) at comparatively exceedingly
low prices. The value OF two rubes Of the
same size, for example, might be severally
a1 and 1000 per carat. Then come ordi-
nary stones-stones which lady may wear
without discredit, their flaws and the pow
erty of their color not being such as to be-
tray them In the wearing except to prac-
ticed eye OF such stones consist 90 per
cent OF those worn by even rich women.
''Fine stones" being of thrice the value, are
only to be seen on the persons of those who
are fastidious as well as rich, for though
commonly good judge can detect the diff
ference at once there is too great tempta-
tion with most women to put conspicuous
quantity before inconspicuous quality for
the latter to prevail.

The news this morning that tnere Is q
probability that senate win at least pro-
ceed to consider the silver repeal
bill in an orderly and business-like
fashion is extremely important and ex-
tremely gratifying.
As few have any just conception OF
the extremity toward which the business
Of the country has been galloping, SO
few will be able to at once appreciate
the relief repeal will bring.
While the country has suffered
severely, what it has already experienced
is rs nothing compared with what it
will suffer within the next few months If
there is not some radical relief afforded
speedily.
While many industrial enterprises
have already succumbed under the
pressure, there are many more that can
only hope to continue in business
under conditions radically improved.
The trouble has been generally con-
sidered to be chiefly sentimental, but
that must be considered as the most
serious Of all difficulties, because it
compels industry to lie inert and await
a sentimental remedy. But the trouble
is not sentimental. 1t is the
most real OF any disaster
that has ever visited this country. 1t is
not wholly due to the operation OF the
silver-purchase law. but that vicious and
unnatural policy was the last straw
that broke the industrial camel's back,
and its repeal must be the cornerstone
Of the rebuilding Of the edifice Of pros
perity.
Many of the conditions that have led
to the present deplorable condition are
Of such a nature that legislation for
sound finances will only affect them in
a general, and not at once perceptible,
way. But they are conditions that can be
endured, and would always be met with
bravery. The threatened debasement
of the currency deprived money-owners
Of their courage, and made them resort
to boarding policy disastrous for the
country and ruinous for themselves.
The reverse side Of the good news that
repeal is at hand is that the report lacks
definiteness, and holds out promise of
days or weeks more of debates which
are liable to develop other idosyncra-
sizes that may prove serious stumbling
blocks. The senate has proved itself
exceedingly unstable as led by the
majority. The Democrats of that
body seem incapable Of formulating
consistent policy or maintaining one
after it Is formulated; of leading public
opinion or responding to public senti-
ment; of enacting statesmanlike role
or playing shrewdly at politics.
Still, there must come an end TO the
insane folly of bankrupting the country
by inaction, aud it is to be devoutly
hoped that that end is now in sight.
