.lAIL CLERK PENSIONS.
The Plan Meets with Approval by
Nil.

Washinglon special: Thu bill which
prorc-a to establish a sort OF pension
system for employees OF The railroad
mail service who become disabled
through accident. on The railroad n
to make provision for the widows Il
minor children OF such who may be
killed in the service. j. likely 10 be-
come Il law before the end OF the ses-
sion. There has always been a strong
objection &c tine creation OF Il civil PEN
sion list. b.. that objection will scarce
Il live against the present. proposition.
The bill does not contemplate any eN-
pensc Ia the Government. but IL Is
proposed to create 4 sort Of insurance
system against accident. with a retired
list for employees who shall have
served for more than twenty years.
The cost of the pension and retired
list j. 10 he borne by the men them
selves. The bill authorizes the official
of the Government TO deduct IRON the
annual pay of all employees of the SER
vice a small percentage which Will
be the fund from which pay
ments shall be drawn. 1t is
estimated that this fund will be self
sustaining. There is a precedent for
the plan in the United States Army.
The contemplated Legislation in be-
half of the railway mail employees
meet, with very general approval in
Congress. and in view Of the fact
that the proposed plan will not entail
expense upon the Government it is
believed by those who have the matter
in charge that there will he compare
lively little difficulty in getting it
through both houses. The President
has already expressed himself as in
favor Of something of the kind.

EX-SENATOR DAWES ILL.

By The Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-Much excite
ment was caused here this morning by
the report that Ex-senator Henry l..
Dawes of Massachusetts, had been seized
by sudden and alarming illness.
IT appears that the venerable ex-senator
who has been stopping over
in Washington, on his way
from his home in Massachusetts, TO
Oklahoma, was taken with a sudden nau-
sea and fainting spell on the street about
10 o'clock this morning. The illness which
at first appeared threatening, is pro-
nounced not very serious by the ply
sicians.

The Convention.

Inc convention was called to order
promptly at IL o'clock by Chairman
Hunter G. White of the State central COM
mittee. He announced that he had been
directed by the executive committee to
name as the temporary chairman
of the convention Colonel Charles Warren
Lippitt OF Providence. He was escorted
to the platform and was received with
applause. He made the announcement
that the secretary of the State Gen.
trail committee, Hon. Eugene
+. Warner OF Coventry, woulc officiate as
temporary secretary. The delegations
from the several cities and towns were
directed to hand in their credentials, and
then the roll OF the convention was called.
The temporary organization was then
made permanent and Colonel Lippitt ad-
dressed the convention.
Colonel Lippitt said that the convention
had come together at time OF unusual
interest. "For many years protection to
American industries and labor had been
the war cry OF the people and the result of
this policy could be seen in the marvellous
increase in the railroad mileage and in
the industries of this country. In the
production of iron this was particularly
noticeable. From 1850 to 1892 il had
arisen from comparative obscurity
TO its present position as the
greatest iron producing country in tho
world. A similar increase had been en-
joyed in the foreign trade, which had
grown from S652, ,000, 600 in 1850 to more
than SS5S, ,000, 900 in 1890. The growth of
the wealth of the nation had been equally
great and this had been done during the
thirty or more years when the Republican
party had been in control of the country,
when the policy of protection had been
been the policy of the nation. But during
the first year of Democratic rule,
the single year that has passed, the num-
ber of depositors in the banks has de-
creased nearly one-tenth. During this
time there have been no less than

lenge Of those who have found no epithet
vey their partisan disappointment at
being thwarted in an attempt TO steal
the State government, the consumma-
tion OF which would have established a
precedent menacing TO the freedom and
purity OF the ballot.
The Stern living issues which confront
us in this fight overshadow the personal
ity of candidates. The calm, cool, certain
logic of events is with us and experience
has brought conviction where words have
been futile.
We have witnessed in this State an
attempt of the Democratic minority 10
seize official power by thrusting
aside constitution, laws and prece-
dents that have governed US for
half century. And in this effort they
have displayed by action and word con-
tempt and defiance for legal authority
that might we'll make patron OF an
archy blush.
But / am conscious that the considera-
tion of national policy which involves
the happiness and comfort of seventy
millions of our people must necessarily
cast into the shade the local issues of
the fight. We are all painfully
familiar with the unparalleled depression
that has come with Democratic suprem-
acy. Unwise and vicious laws are pro-
posed, even to the disturbing and de-
stroying OF the economic system
which has given to this nation great
prosperity. The estimated loss to our
country in the last seven months is over
q, zoe, 900 900 and to labor alone S935, ,000,-
600. Everything must be done to MAIN
tain the American scale OF wages for
therein lies our prosperity.
We have seen our country dishonored in
the eyes of the world and the flag of

There is today crisis in National and
State affairs and the people turn instinct
lively TO the party that for 80 years and more
managed its affairs with peace, prosperity
and honor. On April four We
look to every true patriot to give sting
ing rebuke to the party OF
deceit, depression and dishonor.
Our noble little State must utter
a stirring "amen" to the 10000 plurality
OF the keystone State given in con-
domination of the un-American policy
pursued by the Democracy.
