THE TWO CONVENTIONS.

The State Conventions Of the two great
parties were held yesterday and the fore.
shsdowed result is announced this morn
ing. The Republican ticket Is the same
as last year so far as the head and tail OF
1t are concerned, but between these ex-
tremes a new complexion has been put
upon It about which 1t is very hard to
predict anything.
The fight over the Attorney Generslship
was very close and certainly made US
friends among the beaten faction. AS
someone has said, the defeat OF Mr.. Du-
bois is foregone conclusion.
The ticket nominated in the Democratic
Convention is no less worthy than has
been presented to the electors of the State
In years past. Mr.. Baker is well known
throug hout the State as a gentleman Of
high character and will receive the entire
support OF the party.
Mr.. Young of Newport Is allied to no
faction in the fighting Democratic strong.
hold and will receive a large vote. He Is
q very strong candidate.
Mr.. Heffernan of Woonsocket Is the
candidate for Secretary OF State. We
must confess that he has strong oppo-
nent in Mr.. Bennett. Woonsocket will
do some lively work to defeat Westerly.
Mr.. Aldrlch, the candidate for Attorney
General, has been Assistant Attorney Gen.
eral and is superior In ability to Mr.. Du-
bois, although Mr.. Dubois is nice fellow.
John g. Perry's past record speaks for
itself. The old gentleman is paragon OF
exactpess, honesty and fidelity. Every
one likes him and he and Mr.. Clark, the
Republican nominee for General Treasu.
rer, will have hold on their friends.
The nomination OF Perry from the
South county will ensure the victory OF
the party in that portion Of the State.
As to the platform Of the party 1t Is one
to stand upon and not like that presented
by the Republicans, one to get in on. 1t
teaches and proves true, honest, sound
Democratic doctrine and principles and is
good enough for any man here in Paw
tucket.
We predict a handsome vote for tine
Democratic nominees, and although there
Is triangular fight, certainly the pros
pect is bright for the election Of the
ticket by the people.
Every effort should be made to elec,
the legislative tickets and In this way
make certain the fact OF having a Demo.
cratic Governor for the next official yeal
In this State.

A MASS OF HUNS
Now Marks the Site Of the Largest Flevrins
Mills 10 the United StateA

LITcHFIELD. Ills, March e2.-The Kehlor
Touring mills, In which terrible explo-
sion occurred at an early hour yesteSaay
morning, are said TO he the largest In the
United States, and the establishment is
now in ruins. A number OF dwellings
were badly damaged, and ii Is estimated
that 5000 worth Of glass in houses all over
town was shattered.
The big mills were discovered to be on
fire at about 8,S0 A. m, and by 4 O'Clock
the flames were beyond control II is be-
lieved that the fire was caused by spark
from passing locomotive A terrific ex-
plosion soon occurred. This was probably
due to the ignition Of flour dust" The
immense building was literally blown 10
pieces, and flying fragments of wood filled
the air. John Cowle, heat millwright, OF
Waterloo, was instantly killed, and several
employees were seriously injured
The shock was felt in many adjoining
villages, and the inhabitants were aroused
from their slumbers, and In some cases
were terror stricken, believing that they
had been visited by an earthquake. The
telegraph wires had been temporarily
prostrated Experts believe that the ex.
plosion was caused by the blowing up of
q boiler, and not -four dust; but gsner al
opinion here favors the latter theory.
The large elevator near the railroad
track, containing about $4,000 bushels of
wheat, was burned TO the ground Gen.
eral Manager Smith Of the Kehlor mills Is
authority for the statement that about
$4,000 OF insurance was carried, while the
loss will approximate 81, 100000.
Hundreds Of persons from adjoining
villages arrived during the day on ex-
cursion trains to view the ruins. Many
houses were shaken from their foundations.
IL Is feared that others besides Cowle have
perished, but no thorough search Is pos
sible in 81 now

GET YOUR NAME ON.

Every naturslized voter should look over
the voting lists in the ward In which be
lives and IL his name has been crossed of
he should take bis naturalization papers
without delay to the City Clerks Office
and file them so that bis name can be put
back again and enable him to vote In the
next election.
This Is so important a duty that 1t
should be attended to before Saturday OF
this week.
Delays are dangerous and IL the voters
ca re to have the obnoxious law by which
they have been distranchised repealed they
must do something toward electing del.
egation to the General Assembly that will
attend to this matter.
But Il cannot be done without votes and
every vote counts.

WHY DISCRIMINATE

Bya narrow Interpretation of law the
Republicans have succeeded In having
about five thousand names OF naturalized
citizens removed from the voting lists.
Every naturalized citizen who is not a
property owner and VINO omitted to pre-
sent his naturalization papers to boards
of canvassers Is disfranchised by this
latest dodge of the Republicans to cope
with their Democratic competitors. But
this action may turn out to be a boone
rang. English, French Canadian ana
other foreign. born citizens, many OF
whom have affiliated with the Republican
party, will be debarred from voting BY
this Blodgett rule, which is maniiestly
unjust in requiring a naturalized citizen
to exhibit his papers every year before his
name goes on the list OF voters.-[Prow
