The silver Democrats In Particular
and Mayor McGuinness In General.
To THE EDITOR OF THE News:
DEAR SIR rerort of the intention
of Democrats to nominate silver man
for Mayor of this city, as published in
last evenings NEWS, has aroused con-
siders BILE interest among large number
of citizens.
The unsatisfactory management OF
the city's business by Mayor McGuinness
will, no doubt, aid extensively q move
mspt in that direction.
The past municipal administration has
been everything but satisfactory to the
majority of the citizens >oi Providence.
Aside OF Mr.. McGuinness' failures to keep
the promises upon which he based his
claim to the peoples votes, he also be-
trsyed the best men OF his own party In
a manner unfit for even the cheapest
ward politician. He seemed throughout
the whole year, since the people intrrst'
ed the municipality TO his care, to catch
chances which would fipd him favor iu
the eyes of the 66 mem Ders of the NUM-
cipsl League, and ignored all those who
gave their votes 10 place him into office.
Mr.. McGuinness seems TO have teen
voters, who assume to be the leaders Of
the city, are su fficient to re-elect him
to the trust which he abused, but ne
will find our his erroneous apprehension
op the night after the election.
He must not think that Democrats are
obliged to vote for a man who refused to
come out openly for Democratic princi-
Piles. He cannot expect the support of
men whom he betrayed.
What mas he done to entitle him to Re-
publican votes, and what has he done TO
Justify his claim to Democratic votes?
In my opinion, Mr. McGuinness is
neither Democrat nor a Republican,
but some "where-am-I-at," who is out
fishing for votes of all parties upon
gToundless pretepsions.
The citizsns of Providence have not
yet forgotten bis promises which he fail
ed to fulfill. rs called last year upon all
classes of citizens to help elect him, and
pledged himself TO do justice TO all, but
that was all the voters had out OF him.
Ii cannot, aud will not so easily be
forgotten how the Mayor OF this city in
suited a large class of voters, when he re-
fused TO investigate case concerning
their welfare, apparently because they
were Hebrews.
How can he expect their votes when he
declined to consider their petition for
protection against a man who threatened
their liberties-a man who II under the
control of the city, a man who is paid
by the city TO protect its residents,
namely Patrolman Bates of the Second
Station, who openly declared that he
"will nail every d-n Jew / will get a
hold Of"
wonder II our good Mavor does not
blush when he asked the voters OF Provi-
dence to let him remain in office.
1t IS nv opinion IL the Democrats will
nominate a silver man for Mayor, especial
ly such n well-.earned and capa bic gen.
tleman as Mr.. George Howe, there is no
doubt that every sympathizer of the Chi
cago platform will vote for him, and he
would stand as good a chance for slection
as the "Yellow" Democrat of the city
hall. LITTLE RHoDY.

Brysn's Madison square Garden Speech.
The amount OF m oney in the world, both
silver ond gold, has vastly increased since
what Mir. BRYAN terms, "ths crusade
against silver" was begun. In 1873 the
silver money amounted to less than .1,-
900, ,OOO,O OO0. Now Il amounts to s4,O7O,.
OOO,0OO, and nearly all OF IL is foil legal

Lectures on Life of Re-
ligiOuS RefOrmer.
Illustrated by Many Effective
Stage Pictures.
An Elaborate Production at Infantry
Hall Last Evening.

Under the auspices OF the Evangelical
Young Women's Christian Association,
the life of Martin Luther, en- bracing the
story Of the reformation was eiaborately
produced before a large and appreciative
audience in Infantry Hall last even
ing. The retelling of the OLD,
old story OF the sixteenth century
replete in thrilling and pathetic incidents
was successfully given by Mrs. Ii. II.
Munroe, the noted Philadelphia lecturer,
aided by So s.ereopticon views and $50
member of the various Providence
churches and students of Brown Univer-
sity.
The entertainment was diviied iUto
five parts and each pa ri again
sub-divided into halves. the first of which
was devoted to the stage pictures and the
second to the lecture. Speaking OF the
lecture, MIS-. Munroe spoke clearly and
concisely upon the subject and showed
a familiarity with Luther's life that rem
dered her lecture decidedly interesting.
Promptly at 8 O'Clock the curtains were
drawn aside and the program opened
with an allegorical procession in which
rs peasants costumed In the char
acteristic dress of the sixteenth
century and representing the var
ious German States participated.
The march, symbolic Of the onward
march of religion, aside from its ersc-
tiveness was artistic. This was followed
by q scene from the monastery at Err
furth. Professor Hermann Mueller as
the Erfurthian mon k was the central
figure and was heartily supported in his
acting by the singing OF the church
choir, The third part embraced the most
important feature of the evening, being
Luther's trial, or the Diet at Worms. On
one side of the vas stage were grouped
the supporters Of the church while on the
other Iuther's friends were gathered
and between these two opposing factors
sat the emperor, Charles V. 1t was here
that Luther was tried and in Howard u.
Wilcox's impersonation of the unrelent-
ing ana cold bloooeu cardinal and Ar
thur L. Chamberlain's Luther the specta-
tors were treated to rare bit OF stage
craft. The escape OF the snuns from a
convent was the subject OF the fourth part
and the realistic acting of the young la
dies ELECTED q hearty encore. The closing
stage picture included Luther's death and
burial and an alegoricsl drill. Taken all In
all the affair was q gratifying success and
reflects a deal OF credit upon tn, Evangli-
cal Youag Women's Christian Associa-
tion IN general and Mr.. William X. Lane,
musical director; Miss Alice Locke Pit

ler; Glee Club from Women's College,

japanese cotton spinning is said to be
very profitable, and that as a conse-
quence the capacity for production will
soon be greatly increased. There are
forty million people in Japan who large
" clothe themselves with cotton raj
melt. and who furnish a quick home
market for the outturn of cotton cloths.
There are also in the Empire Of China
over four hundred million people who
are likewise large purchasers of cotton
smns. Access to the Chinese market
was carefully stipulated for in the treaty
of ShimOnOseki.
tt will thus be seen that the cotton
manufacturers Of Japan have great in
ducement to push the output of their
spindles. Their sales Of the coarser
cottons will doubtless curtail the trade
of England and Italy; but it must lead
TO heavy importations of American cot
ton. and should lead to a permanent
increase Of trade with this country.

According to Prof Virgins, the St.
Louis tornado was due to the electric
wires which uavese and converge in
that city, and that the only preventive
OF such yisitaions is to put the wires
underground. Under such a theory
every Geographic centre would be a cy-
clone breeder; whereas such manifesto
tions are as likely to occur in thinly
settled as i'm populous centres. But
though the wires may not cause cy-
clones. they invest them with an added
Verror; and on general principles, there
fore, the wires ought to be put under
ground, where they could do no harm.
