PROF. RILEY'S RESIGNATION.
The Distinguished ntOmOlogist Tired
Of the GONernmcnt Service.

Oh tine SerNIcc.
Prof C. V. Riley, for many years chief
entomologist of the Department of Agri-
culture, has resigned. to take effect June
1. In his letter to the Secretary Of Agri-
culture Prof. Riley says: ....
1T is not easy to sever connection with
a division which one has developed; from
work one has at heart, or from friends and
associates; but whatever the personal sac
rifce, a due regard for the wishes of fam
lily, for health and for peace of mind.
prompts this action. which. indeed. have
for some time contemplat ted.
There is much work either planned or
begun and unfinished, and in carrying IL
on 4 shall at all times be glad to give what
advice and assistance il may be in my
power to give. In this connection l take
the liberty of urging the appointment OF
Mr.. l.. o. Howard ass my successor. He
has been my first assistant for sixteen
years, and not only deserves the promotion
on civil service grounds and because of his
qualifications and familiarity with the work
of the office, but because of his signal abil-
ity and admirable personal traits.
Resignation of government position is
so often synonymous with polite dismiss
sal that l may as well state. for the bene-
fit of the gossips, that this action is taken
without suggestion from, or consultation
With, you or any one else. and purely for
the reason above mentioned"
Prof. Riley has been chief of the entomo-
logical division of the Agricultural Depart
ment for nearly twenty years, and had
early in his career gained an international
reputation by reason of his researches and
valuable discoveries in his chosen branch
of applied science. He is ambitious, and a
hard worker, and has of late become hearth
ly tired of department life under the re-
strictionS that at present surround and
which increased the distaste he has always
had for it. He has not yet decided upon his
future course. but there is no doubt that II
will be in its accomplishments a successful
sequel to that which has preceded 1t. His
voluntary retirement will be regretted by
all scientific men who are interested in the
de velopment of the bureau over which he
has so ably presided.

The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1894-04-02

David s. Baker, Jr., and his friends
have given up argument and are trying
to win the election upon sympathy.
With trembling voices and tears ready
to drop from their eyes, they tell their
listeners that Mr.. Baker is a good man.
that he was almost elected last year,
that Governor Brown has held the office
for two years and therefore it is time he
gave place to another good man. In
cidentally when they think the people
do not know anything they vary this
story with the absurd old chestnut about
Governor Brown stealing the Governor
ship.
There are cogent reasons why the
voter who cares a rap for his home and
his State should not allow himself to be
influenced by this unmanly plea for a
"good man" who wants an Office.
Mr.. Baker is the representative of the
party which is now engaged in enacting
law that will further PROSTATE Rhode
Island industries and take the bread
from the mouths Of the laboring men
and their families. The election of Mr..
Baker by a manufacturing State like
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1894-04-02

seated contrary TO law and in definance
of the opinion of the Supreme Court.
That the two Republicans were un-
seated for the purpose of giving the
Democrats control Of the Grand Com
mite SO that they might elect the Dem
ocratic candidates for State offices who
were not entitled by the constitution to
the positions.
That the only way TO prevent this at
tempt TO steal the State Government
was for the Senate to refuse to join the
House i'm Grand Committee.
That Governor Brown in order to
avoid an expensive and useless legisla-
tive complication, prorogued the Gene
raj Assembly in accordance with his
constitutional privilege.
That the Supreme Court of this State
in recent review of the controversy
has decided that the action Of the Senate
and Governor was legal and proper.
A vote then for Governor Brown and
the rest of the Republican State ticket is
a vote TO condemn a conspiracy against
constitutional government, to support
the Supreme Court, and TO strike blow
at the Southern combination in Congress
that is attempting to ruin New England
industries.

Rhode Island would be claimed by these
wreckers of our Industrial prosperity as
a vote of confidence in their infamous
policy. His defeat would mean the first
warning tone of the knell of the Wilson
tariff bill by the u. S. Senate.
Mr.. Baker is the representative of the
party whose indecent conduct in the
" Rump House" has brought contempt
and ridicule upon the General Assembly
of this State. He is the representative
of the men who concocted a conspiracy
to steal the State Government. and
whose actions have been censured by
the Supreme Court.
1t is not the man, but the men and
measures he represents that will make
his election an unfortunate thing for
Rhode Island.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING.
Brown and Labor.
paWtuxet NalIev Daily Tim es.

Pawturet valley Daily Times.
The attempt OF members of labor union In
Providence TO accomplish certain purpose
for which they have long been working, by
threatening to vote against Governor
Brown, should not be countenanced
bv the various labor organ
izations in the State. We have nothing TO say
against their plan of attempting 20 place
union men in particular newspaper office.
but that they should seek TO secure their ends
by political threat is manifestly unjust and
contrary TO the principles of the Central Labor
Union.
IL is not fair fighting for Governor Brown
has declared that he has no control over the
management OF the newspaper In question.
It Is an ungenerous action because last year
Governor Brown used his influence as a State
official to endeavor to secure for the Typo
graphical Union the concession they desired.
IL is an unmerited attack because Governor
Brown has in his messages. his speeches and
his official actions shown moro consideration
for the claims of the wsge-earner than most
of the prominent men in his party.
II Is especially foolish at this time when the
Republicans are striving to win n victory for
the paramount purpose Of preventing the
passage in the United States Senate of the
Wilson tariff bill. the portentous shadow OF
which has thrown hundreds out Of work and
redu ced the wages OF thousands.
We do not believe the Central Labor Union
advocates this movement on the part OF on
OF Its organizations. and we have more CON
fdence in the workingmen of the State than
TO believe that they will he led 10 cast vote

The tariff fight is again on, the open
ing being made in the Senate today by
Chairman Voorhees, of the Senate finance
committee. Ia his opening Mr.. Voor-
hees made the usual Democratic
claim about the ''vicious principles" and
oppression" of the protective system,
but he failed to tell why the bill he
advocates does not repeal entirely tie
iniquitous system he denounces instead
of copying it in weak and destructive
way. "The protective system of tariff tax.
ton as developed and fastened upon the
business and the labor of the American
people, especially during the third of a
century past, growing worse at
every stage, is system of
indescribable injustice and oppression,
and yet who will contend that all its
vicious principles and workings, ramified
as they are through every branch of
trade and commerce, can be annihilated
by single blow. or totally wiped out
be single legislative enactment?"
Why not? If it is 20 burdensome why
not wipe it out quickly? Why longer
continue the oppression?
He continues, "for the bill now under
consideration no such claim is made,
but in its behalf can be truthfully as
serted, and will be successfully main
tanned, that it accomplishes a
vast work in the field of
tariff reform, embodies a great relief to
the people from iniquitous burdens and
constitutes long stride, though not a
final one, towards the approaching day
of full and perfect deliverance."
He admits what the Republicans
have claimed. The present tariff bill
is not final solution of the tariff ques-
ton and after it's passage
the people of the country
cannot sit down in the knowledgeSthat
there will be no further disturbing ele-
ment in tariff tinkering, for here is the
pledge that this bill is only starter,
that tinkering will go on indefinitely
until "free trade" the goal of the Demo-
cracy, is reached.
This admission gives warning to the
country that the Democracy instead
of attempting to settle the tariff
question for years TO come, pro-
pose to keep up constantly their
agitation, and keep vast business inter
ests in turmoil and disturbance con-
tinually until it suits the Democracy TO
finally push the absolute free trade
measure to the front.

FACE THE SITUATION!

The Democrats have given up this
fight for the General Assembly. They
are abandoning the struggle for every
office except the head of the State ticket.
In this city they are now massing a for
lorn hope, with which they hope TO separ-
ate Governor Brown from the success
which must naturally come to the Re
publican candidates.
They expect to roll up enough votes
from the graveyard registration in two
or three wards of this city to meet the
wave Of Republican approval that they
know must sweep up from the State
outside of Providence.
They think they can secure the Cover
norship by sacrificing the rest of their
ticket. They will count the gain worth
the cost, for it will be made to mean
much.
1t will be made to mean that North
ern manufacturing State approves OF
the tariff policy of the present Demo
cratic administration.
1t will be made to mean that the
Rhode Island seat in the United States
Senate belongs to a Democrat, and will
be an argument for unseating the Re
publican who will be sent from this
State.
1t will be made to mean that the peo-
pie approve of the revolutionary acts OF
Honey, Owen and Garvin and have nc
confidence in the present Supreme
Court.
The Republican voters of Providence
are strong enough to repulse this forlorn
hope. II the Republicans voters OF
Providence do their duty next Wednes-
day the Republican ticket can be
elected from the Governor to the twelfth
representative.
The fight is being forced on Governor
Brown. Rally around the man who had
sufficient courage to maintain the con-
stitution, and to fulfill his oath of office
in spite of the yelping of revolutionary
mob.

THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

The duty will devolve upon the Gen.

The issues, therefore, are largely Ma
tional. We appeal to the people upon
these issues: To endorse the Republican
party of the State in its contest during
the past year with political lawlessness,
and to sustain the principles of the Re
publican party upon National issues,
that prosperity may return to our people,
is the duty of every law-abiding and
patriotic citizen,

THE POSITION OF GOVERNOR
BROWN AND THE SENATE.


"Each town is entitled to the full
representation which the Constitution
contemplates, and this principle is equally
violated, though not to the same extent,
If one town is illegally deprived of its
full representation. In such cases the
Assembly may properly adjourn until
the vacancies can be filled.
''Other emergent causes, sufficient to
justify an adjournment, may arise, such
vs. palpable violation of the Constitu-
tion by the expulsion Of members con-
trary to its provisions, whereby the
character of the grand committee is
changed.
Notwithstanding the fact that each
House is TO be the judge of the qualifi-
cations of its own members. a decent
self respect would entitle the other
branch to refuse to be party to such
Illegal constitution of the grand com
mittee and to base its action thereon.
