The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1897-03-05

Mayor Gottschalk was nominated for the
Office, was in a deplorable way. The city
was practically given over to the lower
element of the liquor dealers. Rum and
open bar rooms on the Sabbath reigned
supreme, until the citizens became dis
gusted. Even the better class OF liquor
dealers felt the shame which some OF the
dealers were bringing upon their business.
1t was, in fact, a stigma to be classed as
liquor dealer. 1t was at this juncture that
Mayor Gottschall was nominated and
pledged himself to bring about better
condition of affairs. How well he has done
this the citizens of this city know, and If
nominated to head the Democratic ticket,
he will receive the full support of every
man who believes in good, honest govern
ment, by the people and for the people,
and not by the ring and for illegal liquor
dealers.

: For GOvernOrship.
Chairman Owen Was In the
City Today to Consult
With His Honor.

All Classes Of Citizens Received the News
With Pleasure and Say That He Would
Be Sure of An Election.

The announcement that Mayor Colts
chalk might be the standard bearer OF the
Democratic party for Governor this spring
has met with very favorable reception
by all classes of citizens. 1t was originally
intended by the Democratic leaders of this
city to insist upon making the Mayor the
nominee for State Senator, but within
the past week the State Central Committee
has been casting longing eyes toward the
doctor as an ideal candidate for the gov
srnorship. This program has been known
to the intimate friends of Mayor Colts
chalk for about week, and it was the in
tention % have kept the matter quiet
sntil it was fully decided.
Chairman Owens of the Democratic Cen
tral Committee was in the city today, and
in all probability the head Of the ticket
will be decided upon at the conference
between the mayor and the chairman.
1t is a well-known fact and has been so
for the past week that Mayor Gottschalk
can have the nomination il he wants it.
If he decides to accept the nomination
there is no doubt but what he will make
the other fellow hustle for the honors.
1t is conceded on all sides that this is an
off year, but if the votes of the cities of

DAWSON CYCLE CLUB
Held Regular Meeting and Elected Oficers
For Ensuing Year.

Held Regular Meeting aad Elected O Ofiicers
For Ensuing Year.
The special meeting of the Dawson Cycle
Club last evening was called to order by
President Patt, large attendance of men,
bers being present. The meeting was
called for the purpose of electing officers
for the ensuing year. III. f. Patt was NOM
mated for President, and was unanimous
ly reelected. Frank Gooding was re-
elected Vice President, as were Maurice
Frost for Secretary and George Wood
nancy for Treasurer. For the Board of
Directors, Messrs. Goldsmith, Chace. Me-
Elroy, Oldham and Dorrance were elected
Captain, Hans Hanson; LIST Lieutenant.
Edgar Oldham; I'd Lieutenant, Fred Leon
ard. After the election OF officers a COM
mittee consisting of Herbert Patt, Charles
Price and William Goldsmith was elected
to make arrangements for the anniversary
OF the club, which occurs on March 20.
The club has removed into new and COSY
quarters in the same building. The rooms

DEMOCRATIC CAUCUSES.

Good Attendance and Feeling of Con-
fdence Is Felt.
The first signs of activity in the political
arena was displayed last evening by the
Democrats, who held ward caucuses for the
election of delegates to the city conven-
ton, which is to be held on Tuesday even
ing. Last evenings outpouring of Demo-
Gratis demonstrates the fact that a stiff and
earnest fight is to be put up all along the
line for the candidates on the legislative
ticket. 1t is apparent from the earnestness
of the leaders and members of the party
th,t the fight is not so hopeless as the op
position would have people believe, but,
on the contrary, there is every chance in
the world to elect their ticket in the COM
ing contest. Get the voters out, united
and concerted action will do the rest.
In Ward Four there was little excite
ment by fruitless effort on the part of
few to defeat James III. McGlynn for the
City Committee. The opposition was
headed by Edward II. LAWN, who in turn
was defeated for the alleged reason that he
worked against the reelection of Mayor
Gottschalk al the last municipal election.
The following are the returns from all
the wards:

Broke the Window.

Officer Hanrahan arrested a woman on

window in Flaherty's liquor saloon. 1t
seems that according to the story told, the
woman went into the liquor store in an
intoxicated condition and demanded
something 10 drink. Mr.. Flaherty re-
fused her and put her out of the door
She became enraged at this treatment, and
in her fury drove her fist through one of
the windows. Officer Hanrahan was sum
nioned, and brought the woman to the
station house. ~.

statement concerning the condition in
which the committee found the school
property, and said that he thought the
members of the Joint Standing Committee
on Education were fully capable of attend
ing to the duties arising from the position.
The discussion was joined in by Mr.. Dex
ter, Mr.. Newell, Councilman Washburn
and others. The discussion waxed warm
at times, and again developed into mu-
tual admiration society.
The strongest point brought out by the
School Committee was the fact that they
sent in their estimates for the year In a
bulk sum, and that somebody, without
authority, subdivided 1t. Mr.. Lent said
that he thought the School Committee
ought to have that power themselves, in
asmuch as some of the amounts were quite
frequently exhausted, and under the pres
ent condition they would be compelled to
come to the City Council for power to
transfer amounts from one appropriation
to another. He said in his opinion it was
hardship and an injustice. President
Eastwood Sid that it came in that form
to the Committee on Finance, Alderman
Mccartney said that he thought it might
have been done by the City Auditor.
The conference ended without accom-
plishing much. The Joint Standing Com
mittee feel that they have done all in their
power for the schools, while the School
Committee think that they ought to have
full charge OF the school property.
Celebrated the Event.
President Mckinley is not the only man
in this country who has cause to rejoice
on account of the 4th Of March. Walter
j. Patt of this city, looks forward each
year to the coming of that day with much
pleasure, as it is the anniversary Of his ap-
pearance in this world. Yesterday was
Walters birthday, and continuing Gus
tom of former years, he invited several of
his male friends to help him celebrate the
occasion. They responded to the number
of forty or more and materially assisted
Walter in disposing of an excellent lunch.
Dull care was driven to the winds for the
nonce, and most enjoyable time was
spent.
