The agitation In favor of some meth
Cd Of protecting the rapidly depleted
clam beds along the bay shores prom
ises To assume substantial proportions
by the time the assembly convenes. It
is certainly high time that steps were
taken unless one OF Rhode Islands
rlost enviable products is To pass into
tradition as 1t Is already reduced to
a smallness that brings grief to the
heart OF every true Rhode Islander
with each recurring summer. The meth
Cd Of securing the desired protection is
perfectly simple and ought not to
arouse any antagonism except from
some avaricious clam digger who fails
TO discern that i'm destroying an import
ant interest OF the state he Is also
threatening his own future livelihood.
There ought To be an act on our statute
book giving authority 10 the shell fish
commissioners 20 prohibit the digging
OF clans from the shores and waters
OF the state whenever in their judg-
ment such a step is made necessary by
the depletion of the stock. The whole
sale destruction OF young CLANS has
certainly gone far enough, and, as the
News has before pointed out, has
caused alarm lest the day OF the clam
is passing as the day Of the really good
and appetizing clam has already passed
for the product that has been emptied
on our plates for some seasons has
been OF sort to bring the blush OF
shame TO US. Such power afforded tho
shell fish commissioners is all that IS
necessary. They could then from time
TO time mark out and bound so much
OF the cham grounds as the conditions
made necessary within which limits
clam digging should be prohibited un-
der penalty until such time as the crop
should be restored.

Elisha Dyer Is now flling out his Sec
ond term as governor of Rhode Island.
His first nomination was indicated by
the desire OF the Republican party to
present as their candidate a citizen Of
distinction and a man OF proved attain
ments I'm public life. His second nomi-
nation was prompted by the public and
party sentiment which furnishes 10 an
executive by this Formally an endorse
ment of duty satisfactorily performed
His third nomination was demanded in
response TO overwhelming party and
public sentiment that the highest pos
sibie tribute should be paid to the head
OF the state who had demonstrated the
highest capacity at time OF national
crisis and by his official acts gave the
fullest expression To the patriotism and
energy which imbued his fellow citi-
zens during a historic period. Twice
has Elisha Dyer received a plurality Of
the votes of his fellow citizens OF more
than ten thousand. With the extraordi-
nary interest in public affairs that ex-
lists today and the unusual confidence
and admiration which the record OF our
war governor" has inspired. Elisha
Dyer ought to receive tomorrow a vote
unprecedented in the records OF our
state politics. We have no doubt that
the figures viii justify this assumption
when the ballots are counted tomorrow
evening.
