ASK FOR
ENFORCEMENT OF LAW
The East Providence Town Council
D0dges Question and Passes a
Self-Satisfying Resolution.

A petition signed by many OF the most
representative ladies and gentlemen OF
East Providence was presented TO the
town council. yesterday. The petition
contained lo25 names. and the petitioners
asked that the laws of the state be en-
forced at Crescent Park.
This was not so much OF a laughing
matter as the granting of liquor license
for Crescent Park was made some time
ago by the town council
After reading the petition Councilman
Pierce offered the following resolution:
Resolved. That this town council re-
grets that the petitioners having knowl-
edge OF the lack OF enforcement OF the
laws alleged by them, did not promptly
bring evidence thereof to the notice OF
the prosecuting officer of the town that
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1900-09-06

seasonable action might have been taken
by them. and that their petitions be now
referred to the prosecuting officer, who
is hereby requested 10 make olligent ef-
fort TO ascertain IL the laws OF the state
are not honestly and substantially en-
forced at the shore resorts or any other
places in this town; and. IL so. TO pros-
ecute all violations of the laws and ordi-
nances which come to his knowledge"
This resolution was adoptedi but from
what can be learned the town council
did not win any friends by practically
shifting the blame upon Chief of Police
Adams.
IL is only a short time ago that the
council granted hotel and liquor license
10 Boyden at Crescent Park. At that time
there was entered strong protest against
the granting of that license; but the
council ignored the protest.

New York. Sept Ga somewhat de-
layed letter OF Hon. Richard Olney. on
the present presidential campaign has
just been made public. In this commune
cation Mr.. Olney comes out fairly and
squarely for William Jennings Bryan. Mr..
Olneys letter is as follows:
MIR. oLNEY's LETTER.
Dear Sir have yours OF the 18th ult.
You refer to a previous conversation I'm

vote the Democratic ticket at the coming
presidential election, and ask for the
grounds for so doing. You urged at our

PRACTICAL RESULTS.

important subject OF the presidency, a

must seek the best results through such
legitimate practical methods as are avail
able.
Parties cannot be ignored. for example,
because ours Is a government OF parties:
The real Issue is which OF them shall con-
troll. and Individual effort independent OF
party must at best be abortivc. while IL
may further the success OF the worst
party IN the field
So the choice between the parties, one
OF which must certainly prevail, calls
for the exercise OF the same sound COM
mon sense. Perfection IN a candidate or
platform Is an idle dream. and innrmities
IN its creed and defects in its leadership
will always characterize every party.
But they I'm no wise excuse a citizen
from taking his assigned part In the gov
ernmcnt of the country, from making up
mands. and what partys success will
come nearest satisfying the demand. and
from using his influence and casting his
vote accordingly.
II one citizen may properly withhold
his vote. logically all may. and all the
wheels OF government be stopped.

MURPHY WAS MUCH PUZZLED
He Managed to Give Satisfactory An
swers to the Questions,
However.

One of the New York enumerators called
on an old Irishman who had his name, Muir
ply, chalked upon his door. He was very
much perplexed, although he had been
in the country long enough to so through
several censuses.
The cinsis?' he exclaimed suspicious
ly. "Phwat is ut?"
told him that it was record of the tribe
of Murphys in the United States that was
being prepared for the government, where
at he was greatly hattered, and wanted to
tell me his family history as far back as he
knew it. His memory, however, was defec'
tive, especially as to dates.
''The year Nv me burrth?" he repeated,
scratching his head. "Sure an don't know
at all, at ALL Then, after rejecting awhile
he frightened up and said: Sure, an II
wuz the year the crops failed in Ireland"
WAS it in '37?" l suggested, at ven.
ture He looked to be about 60.
Faith an it was that very year" he re-
piled, and l let it 60 at that.
He had forgotten, too, the year OF his ar

ace Greeley was runnin' for president at the

ROAST BEEF WAS TOO DEAR
A Chicago Woman Who Has q
Grievance for the Econ
Omy Club.

Young Mrs. Woodlawn, who lives or
Prairie avenue, has not been housekeeping
very long, but she is versed In household
economy. She is prize member of the study
class in that subject at the Woman's club,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Every housekeeper should do her own
marketing" says Mrs. Woodlawn, and every
morning at nine O. clock she starts out to con-
tribute to the gayety of grocers and meat
shop men on Cottage Grove avenue. Once
she ordered '1eg of veal for two, an an.
other time she purchased trout on the halt
shell" A few days ago she undertook to
negotiate for a small roast of beef.
Eighteen cents pound, ma am, said
the butcher.
Aren't you rather high?" remarked Mrs.
Woodlawn, tentatively.
No, indeed, ma,am; steers like this meat
comes from, ma'am, is selhn' for six dollars
on the hoof."
Mrs Woodlawn gathered up her pocket
book and her parasol decidedly.
Il shall lay this matter before the Social
Economies club" she said. ''If cattle are
worth only six dollars apiece and you sell
me roast beef at Is cents pound, we are
in the clutches of a monopoly, and will eat
trout as long as live before I'll stand it.
So there"
