A HEAAY DEFICIT.

Despite the fact that the revenues of
this State have been augmented to an
unusual extent, the year 1896 shows an
excess of expenditures over receipts of
$11,55O. This is large sum, when we
take into consideration the fact that
the States revenues during the year
have been increased, specifically, by
turning the accrued interest on the
State House bonds into the general
fund of the State, by discounting a
note for $500 and by draft Of $685.
900 upon the 1897 tax. Yet the regular
income into the State treasury during
1875 exceeded that of any past year in
our history by e26,S17.28.
. During the next five or six years the
taxpayers will be put to an enormous
expense, as there are public buildings
to complete that will cost vast sums.
We sincerely hope that a bond issue
will not become necessary. Increased
debt is not pleasant thing, for some
day it must all be paid.

cUMBERLAND,S ANNIVERSARY.

The thriving town of Cumberland IL
15O years old today, but tho folks mp
there are not celebrating the event in
any especial manner. Cumberland was
one Of the five Rhode Island towns re-
ceived from Massachusetts, by royal
decree, and its name, Attleboro George,
was changed in honor Of William Duke
of Cumberland.
Duke William was gallant English
man, q younger son Of George H., who
commanded at Fontnenoy and at Gull
loden, and Was the able diplomat sol
der who concluded with the Due de
Richelieu, the French commander, the
convention of Kloster- Zeven, by the
terms of which the Hanoverian army
was dispersed in 1857. Bristol, Warren,
Little Compton and Tiverton oil came
into Rhode Island under the decree
with Cumberland, and these towns also
are $50 years old with Cumberland, to-
day.
In the old days Cumberland gave
promise of being m important city.
Cumberland Hill was centre Of learn
ing, and the canal and stage coach con-
tributed to development that the rail-
road has since diverted to Woonsocket.
Part Of Cumberland's territory has
gone to swell Woonsocket, too. But it
is still a thriving community, and ranks
as leader among the industrial and
agricultural town communities OF the
State.

AN ANTiJOHNNY BILL.

Mr. Smithson's Measures For the Protec-
tion Of Young Women Students.
Mr.. Smithson has introduced a bill in
the senate with this caption: "An act
for the protection of boarding schools
for females and principals and inmates
thereof.
twill be seen at once that Mr.. Smith.
son is aiming at an evil that principals
and patrons Of female schools have dis
cussed thousands Of times and have Of
ten taken precautionary measures
against with but poor avail In short
words, he is aiming at that class Of
"Johnnies' whose faces, wreathed with
tempting smiles, are often seen In the
neighborhood Of schools for young girls.
Therefore he gives warning to all such
classes that they will have something
worse than the barking dogs, which BE-
tray their lurking presence, to dread in
the future-a statute making the onense
. misdemeanm
Mr.. Smithson's bill says it shall b
unlawful for any persons to linger on
the street, alley. road or byway near q
school for females, and that they shall
not hold any communication, either in
words or signs, with any Of the inmates
Of such colleges. In passing the institu-
ton they shall not linger or lurk near,
trying to communicate with any one ON
the inside, and no one will be allowed
to speak to pupil without express per-
mission from the principal.
If in any way the inmates Of school
are annoyed by billet dGux of any kind,
the offender will be guilty Of misde-
meanor. The owner Of the property or
the principal of the school will have re-
course to the law in all cases where per-
sons inger around the school.
Mr.. Smithson is not moralist, but
he is aware of the capers that have been
cut by boys in the neighborhood Of more
than one female college in Tennessee
Mr.. Smithson said, referring to GER
tain female college in this state:
There is a class Of boys who have
made themselves notorious by their ca
pers around this college The girls are
worried to death by letters and all 9TH
er kinds of communications. The boys
pass up and down in front Of the college
and use their handkerchief as means
for Irritation with the girls. The girls
cannot 60 out ON the streets without be
accosted by all sorts Of handkerchief and
glove filtration signs, and often the boys
speak to them. The principal has been
worried out Of his wits almost, but there
is NO way to stop it.
Even in the churches ON Sunday the
boys will try to fiirt with the college
girls. The aggravation has passed stand
ing any longer, and there must be Law
to protect the girls and the colleges.
This sort of conduct does not happen
only at the college / speak Of, but al
most every female school is bothered by
the Johnny class"
Mr.. Smithson goes at a reform in
hearty manner and with the intention
Of carrying il through. He has two 9TH
or bills relating to sleeping car berths,
which are causing about as much COM
ment among the senators as the female
college bill which the senators are jok-
ing with the Pulaski senator ovcr.-

TOUR ABOUT TOWN

A young man named Arthur l.. Tupper
of woonsocket came to this city few
days ago, and when it came time to 60
home he was without funds. He went
to the depot and when the engineer on
the train due in Woonsocket at p. m.
was not looking he sneaked around in
front of the engine and took seat on
the little platform just over the pilot
and under the headlight. On this
breezy seat he rode twelve miles to
Woonsocket without being discovered.
If it had been severe weather he would
have doubtless frozen to death, and hs

There is some talk about town regard
ing the recommendation OF Gov. Lip
pitt in this message, presented to the
General Assembly yesterday, to change
the color of the State flag. Tho white
flag had the seal OF the State in the
center. It was adopted in 1776 and was
in use until 1883 when IL was abolished.
1t seems as il the Governor had good
cause for recommending the change
both on account OF the superior beauty
OF the cid flag and because Of its his
toric associations.

victory, and closed his speech by say
