WILFUL MEASUREMENTS.

OF late the Newport News has in
dulged in many misstatements and will
full perversions in its efforts to get a
fling at the Mckinley tariff, but none
have been quite so flagrant as that con-
tained in one of its recent issues.
Commenting on the statement made in
this paper that the report of II. G.. Dun
g. Co., showed that the liabili-
ties of failed concerns for the quarter
were $4,000, 900, which greatly sur
passed the record for any previous quar-
ter, the Newport contemporary says:
"And The News may we'll ask IL these
are the good times promised as the out
come of the Mckinley tariff, whose
stamp Is on the country"
The Providence News did not ask any
such silly question. What il did ask
was "Arc these the good times prom.
isel by the Democratss" IL the New.

STOP THIS NONSENSE.

Tomorrow afternoon the board of
aldermen will meet and an effort will
be made to secure the acceptance Of the
common councils invitation to go into
joint convention for the purpose of
electing an inspector of plumbing.
There is little doubt that the West
combine will do everything in its power
to prevent acceptance, but it is to be
hoped it will not be successful.
This matter has been juggled with
long enough and it is about time the
sensible members of the board, who
believe they were elected to transact the
city's business and not tn play ut peanut
politics, asserted themselves and stopped
the exhibition of petty partisan spirit.
The city needs an inspector and has
needed ohe for many months. The
very men who have prevented an elec-
tion by unworthy trickery admitted
this when they voted for the ordinance
creating the Office. Why then permit
them to prevent the election of an Off
Ger whose services are necessary to the
proper guarding of the public health?
II Mr.. West wishes to continue his
childish tactics let him do so. but it
does seem that there ought 10 be in the
higher branch of the city council
enough common sense to defeat his
plans and teach him that even though
backed by the mayor he cannot longer
defy the majority.

A GRACEFUL ACT.

The graceful withdrawal of Hon Albert
+. Pillsbury from. the contest for the
Republican gubernatorial candidacy in
Massachusetts, and his manly letter to
ex-Congressman Greenhalge, who had
the lead for the nomination, shows not
only Mr.. Pillsbury's magnanimity, but
his good, sound common sense. He
realized that it is the party and not the
man to whom success is due, and. recog-
nizing this fact, Mr.. Pillsbury with
draws long before any bitter feeling
could possibly be engendered.
The Republicans of Massachusetts
have ever been found ready to harmon
ize any differences, and work for the
common interests. There never
has been that strife after Office
that has unfortunately sometimes dis
graced the party in other states.
Rule or ruin has never been the
policy of the Bay State Republican
leaders, and it never will be. The
Democrats who expected bitter fight
over the nomination are dismayed.
They see the three Republican leaders
who were contesting for the nomination
drawn together by a bond stronger
than mere personal ambition, ano
striving shoulder to shoulder to carry
the party on to victory. And victory
will reward them.

Boston Opinions.


Henry A. Thomas, Mr.. Greenhalge's
manager, says: 1--WE consider 1t a very
magnanimous thing for Mr.. Pillsbury to
do, and shows the spirit of unanimity
that prevails in the Republican party.
think we will nominate Mr.. Greenhalge
without any difficulty, and, with that
harmony in the ranks which Mr.. Pills.
bury's action illustrates, success Is cer-
tain"
Hon. Josiah Quincy: "Mr. Pillsbury's
withdrawal Dies not surprise me. I can
not see that IL will have any material ef.
feet upon the situation. The nomination
of Mr.. Greenhalge has been discounted for
some time, and the formal withdrawal OF
Mr.. Pillsbury merely indicates that he
prefers to accept the situation in advance
OF the convention. In my opinion Mr..
Pillsbury would be much stronger and
safer candidate for the Republican party
than Mr.. Greenhalge, and am therefore
glad that he is definitely out of the field.
''The support of the attorney general
came from class Of conservative Repub-
licans whose active interest in the cam
paign would have been of great value To
the party. Mr.. Greenhalge has won the
nomination through the active exertions
of the more radical and hot-headed ele-
ments OF the Republican party, of whom
he is undoubtedly the logical candi-
date. / cannot sec anything in his
candidacy 10 attract a single independ-
ent voter, while AIR. Pillsbury could have
secured considerable vote that Is not
firmy attached to the Republican party"
Lieutenant Governor Wolcott says that
this action signifies n harmonious conven-
ton Further than that he would not
talk for publication.
