Nothing less than miracle can now
bring about the election of Democratic

The reelection of Senator W. Whipple
In North Providence. and the failure to
elect in Jamestown. (J. b. Landers hold

members Of the grand committee, aud
makes a total of ifty-three. without the
two hold-over members from South
Kingstown. Practically. therefore, the
Republicans have now ffty-fve mem

The talk OF the detection of Senator
Watson and the claim that he will sup
port David S. Baker because he wants
his cousin appointed postmaster is the
fral wall OF tue defeated Democrats 1t
Is almost too wild 10 he worthy OF discus
sion. III Senator Watson were in the
field 10 be bought at all, there are
many more lucrative Offices, than the
postmastership, at the disposal Of the
Republican, governor.
The Democrats, however. do not ex-
pect 10 y In by the vote of Senator Wat
son. Nor do they look for any miracles.
Chairman Owen and Mr. Honey are too
shrewd for that The party machine ex-
poets to win now, IL at all, by controlling
the house OF representatives. IL they
secure enough of the Providenc,
delegation to give them a major
ity there they will swell that
majority b. unseating enough
Republicans to enable them TO control
the grand committee. IL they secure the
whole Providence delegation it will only
require the ubseating of three. 1t is ge !.
orally conceded thai Representative Allen

standing his majority OF nearly 150
Smith, the Democratic candidate from
jamestown, only lacked three of ma

enough bribery cases to unseat Mr.. Ian
ders IL Representative Robinson of
South Kingstown should hold over he
would probably be another point of
att ack. But in the condition TO which
the Democracy is now reduced they will
stop at nothing, not even so palpabe a
fraud AS The unseating of honestly elect
ed mem bers.
NThe Republicans, however, have last
resort which they employ, that is the
senate can, refuse to go into, grand com
mittee and elect any general officers. In
session might be transacted aud
under his prerogatives the gov
ernor could adjourn the session and
continue TO hold his Office by virtue OF
failure Of the general assembly to elect
his successor. Naturally the governor
would hesitate long before taking such
step. but it would be fully warranted
in Gaze the Democrats carry out their
present purpose.
