Mr.. 8assett is Fifth Mem

He Was Informed Of His Appoint

Mr.. James A. Williams, who has had some
difficulty i'm securing the fifth member OF

the Committee Of Fifty who shall noml-
nate candidates for city offices, has at last
secured his man. MIR. Edward ID. Bassett
will accept the place that Mr. Mlchaei
j. Hsrson ct si refused.
Mr.. Williams told News reporter this
afternoon that he had appointed Mr..
BassetI. The NEws reporter went to see
Mr.. Bassett about it, but was much SUR
prised 10 fud that the gentleman was
unaware OF his new power and position.
But MIR. Bassett believed II when the
reporter told bin what his source of
information was, and nc replied that ne
would most certainly accept.
"There IS need for work TO be done,
said MIR. Bassett, 'sano IL no one else will
do il will put my own shoulder to the
wheel and go right ahead and pick out
a committee of fifty good citizens.
Mr.. Bsssett said that he didn't know
what the four members OF the committee
already appointed had done and was lg-
norant Of the fact that they have already
decided on over thirty OF the fifty names
TO be chosen. But ho said that now the
list would have to be approved and con-
firmed by all Ave. The Committee of
Five held no meeting today but each one
IS thinking up something oil the time TO
tell the Others snd as individuals they
ere all busy with their city directories
and tax books in making out lists OF
names, and OF course as individuals they
have various opinions about the different
names suggested. However, they prom
ise to agree upon fifty before the end OF
the week ana MIR. Clark, chairman, has
promised to tell the newspapers all that
he does.
Mr.. Alfred Dawson, president OF the
Rhode Islsrd Citizens League that open

Infantry hall meeting that he had kind
OF lost faith in the movement, because
the men who were supported by il would
give the supporters the cold shoulder az
Ter il was all over. And now Mr.. Dawson
thinks he was right. The Committee of
Five won't come to him and he can't go
to the Committee of Five because he
can't find il. For the last three or four
days he has been working harder than
the reporters 10 ind out when and where
that committee does meet because he has
the names OF some men whom he wants
TO be on the Committee OF Fifty and all
of them are taxpayers, he says, but one.
But he can't find his men.
