THE DEMOCRATIC PROGRAM.

The Democratic program, SO far as it
can be understood by the daily manifes-
tations, is provocative Of merriment or
wrath, according as one is disposed to
allow politics to ruffle his spirit or not.
1t at least furnishes the Republicans
with evidence of the desperate straits to
which the Democrats recognize that
they have arrived In the attempt to get
that which they are not numerous
enough to win at the ballot box.
The clumsy device of constantly ar
plying for aid from the supreme court,
and the constant threat that members
who have become legally entitled to
their seats by the operation Of the laws
and the constitution Will not be allowed
to take their seats. are the resorts Of
the school-boy rather than the states
man.
1t is the peculiar province of the Dem
ocrats to evince great contempt for
the law when 1T stands in the way Of
their plans, and nothing that can be
devised by the most ingenious and the
most unscrupulous among them is too
desperate to win the support of the
party when the question of the Offices
is up.
In the present exigency there is moth.
ing that can possibly be imagined that
calls for the overturning of the laws of
the state. The Democrats have been
fairly beaten. according to the laws of
the state, and they have only to submit
to the inevitable to win for themselves
the credit of being at least sensible
beings. They do not seem to wish for
that reputation. however, and are de-
termined to keep up their well-earned
reputation for never agreeing with their
record, with the laws they helped to
make, or with the facts they cannot
alter or disprove.
In all the political history of the
country there is not another spectacle
so unique as is now furnished by the
Democrats of this state in their cele-
brated Mrs. Partington act Of trying to
sweep aside the constitution and the
statutes, to clear their way to the
offices.

TIE MEDICAL BILL.

That the medical registration bill now
before the general assembly is perfect
is not to be expected, but that it is a
step In the right direction must be ad-
mitted by those who have given the
matter any thought.
For years Rhode Island has been a
haven to which irresponsible and un-
skilled practit oners, driven from other
states by similar laws, have fed, and
from them the people have had no pro-
lection.
BY those who oppose the bin 1t is
urged that inasmuch as no instances can
be pointed out where death has resulted
from the treatment given by "quacks"
they should not be legislated against.
Perhaps careful inquiry would show
that there is no ground for this conten-
ton, but admit that death has not fol-
lowed their ministrations and they will
still be found menace and danger.
They obtain money under false pre-
tences by pretending to treat diseases CT
which they are ignorant, and while the
patient may not lose his life his health
is often impaired while the charlatan
packets his money.
In this matter the lawmakers have
not been altogether consistent. The
drug clerk who compounds prescrip-
tions is compelled to serve a long APP
premiership and then to pass rigid
examination to determine his fitness,
when any ignoramus who can use pen
or pencil may write prescription.

Ny attent on has been called to an arti-
Gle In a recent issue of your paper Sc
verely censuring the Unitarian Congrega-
tional society of this city, for requesting q
citizen, by private letter. not to attend any Of
its services. You confess that you were not
informed as to the "provocation which led
to this action, and you will perhaps, there
fore, allow me to state the case for the church.
The person to whom this request was sent
has persisted, for some time, in entering and
leaving the church In a noisy and offensive
manner expressly contrived by him to show
his contempt for the devotional part of the
service. He has Also within and about the

fact that he not only gave II to the papers. but
came TO our church again the following sun
day. seating his bulky body with a snort in

there. seeking the street corner, according to
his custom, to entertain the crowd with an
extended r.dicule of the service. You seem to

HIGHER TAKES.

The raising of the city tax rate ten
cents on the hundred dollars was made
manifestly necessary by the progressive
policy the city has been following for
the past two or three years.
The city has fairly entered upon a
process of revivification, and finds that
very large amount of work that should
have been spread over the past ten or
fifteen years must be done now.
The public works department was be-
hind at least ten years when it under
took the great task of building the
sewers, some three years ago. This was
in itself labor to almost daunt the
most pronounced progressive, but it was
only one Of the larger items the gener-
alton that just preceded us handed
down to us to perform. The streets were
In very bad condition, the park improve
ment problem had been entirely neglect
ed, the water supply was inadequate in
quantity and execrable in quality, the
Cove had to be filed and the railroad
terminal question attacked, and other
matters involving the expenditure Of
much money were pressing for immedi-
ate attention.
While the raising of the tax-rate is to
be regretted, it only needs that the ex-
igency that made such course impera-
tive should be understood to present to
the people of the city full justification
and explanation.
1t is impossible to place Providence
in line with the most progressive cities
of the country. or push 1t into the place
it ought to occupy, unless sufficient
money is expended to make 1t physically
equal to the best in the land and equally
desirable and healthful as a place of
residence.
To do this requires money, and much
money. 1t would have required very
much less if the liberal policy now rul-
ing had been adopted score Of years
ago. The increased tax rate is literal
exemplifcation Of the biblical promise
that the sins of the fathers shall be Wis
tied upon the children's heads.
Perhaps the city might now profita-
bly, turn its attention to the methods
and work of the assessors, and source
Of increased revenue be discovered in
the raising of the valuation of some of
the city property that has for years
been increasing in value.
