EAST PROVIDENCE
Democratic Leaders Had TO Call
In PhiIistin0S TO Eat Stew.
Warrant for Cow y..FIremen
TO Meet..A Surprise Visit.

Local Republicans got quite Jar Satur-
day evening, when they learned that a
Democratic club. with more than 300
names on it's roster. TO be known as the
Union club. had been organized, and was
going TO have a meeting in Rays block
yesterday. The club had a meeting, but
II was 293 short of 300 and when the lead
ers OF the Republicans heard Of this
they went home and simply forgot that
there was such thing as Democrat
In the town.
The seven men In the hall were sup
posed TO be the leaders or charter mem
bers OF the club. and they attended to
their duties in a most workman-like man

and plenty of hot coffee. When the lonely
seven found that there were no more
coming. they sent a delegate TO the rooms
of the Ivy club and extended a most
cordial invitation 10 the members OF that
club to call upon the Union club and par
take OF the chowder and coffee. and as
none OF the members OF the Ivy club
are without good appetities. at once ac-
cepted the invitation.
They were not able to get away with all
Of the stew, though. Indications are
that the Union club has had its first and
last meeting.

herd OF cows 10 feed on the lawn In
front OF the town hall Saturday morning
was told by Chief Adams that II he
would promise to he on hand In court

1t should not be forgotten by the Democratic voter, who believes the
trusts are dangerous to the interests of the people and should be Destroy
ed, that the only effort EVER made to control the trusts was made by Re-
pubhcans. The antitrust law was prepared by a Republican, passed by
a Republican Senate, a House of Representatives and signed by a Repub-
Ican President. Of this law the New York World said: "The law re-
manned a dead letter on the statute books during the entire second term
of Grover Cleveland, a Democratic President, and the first effort to n
force the law vas made by Theodore Roosevelt, a Republican PRESIDENT
Richard Oney, the Democratic Attorney General under Cleveland, treat
ed the law with contempt; sneereda at it and declared it unconstitutional.
He refused to have anything to do with its enforcement. Roosevelt and
his Attorney General, Phlander c. Knox were the first to prosecute Of
tenders against this law, and their prosecution "a sustained by the SUI
premeC Court. And yet Democrats ire insisting that they as a party are
opposed to the trusts. All the evidence upon this matter is against
them. The same law that Roosevelt has enforced against trusts existed
under the last Democratic administration, when the trusts were coming
into being, and no effort vas made to suppress them. The Democracy has
been tried and found wanting in opposition to the trusts.
