The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1904-10-25

In the past few days there has been
considerable discussion among the march
ing companies and some talk among the
members or business houses as TO the ef-
feet or an afternoon parade. A great
many are under the impression that IL
would tend TO stimulate business in the
city Of Providence as il would bring
thousands from all points OF the state
and that these thousands after the pro-
cession had passed would visit the var-
Gus business houses and stores, make
their purchases which II the parade
should occur in the evening they could
not do should they wish TO see the dem
onstration.
II would seem that II the parade is
made In the evening the business houses

favoring an afternoon demonstration are

HIGHWAY
MEN NOT
TO BLAME

1t was only a month ago that the sec
ton Of Broad street between Public street
and Princeton avenue was repaired and
put into excellent condition by the city's
highway department. Only a few days
ago the Rhode Island company suddenly
broke loose and began to tear up it's
rails In the very same section OF the
street and incidentally make things un-
comfortable for abutters who are COM
PEELED to pass over the torn up section, as
well as Offset the work OF the road build
ers. 1t looks like bad management some
where, according TO several Of the resi-
dents and some Of the more energetic
have set TO work to see where TO place
the blame, 1t was found that the COM
missioner OF public works was not respon-
sible for the double tearing up OF the
highway. that official having done all In
his power to have the work done all at
once. As the matter stands the expense
will probably be much heavier for the
Rhode Island company than II would been

to lay new rails. but l was informed that
the company could not do the work this

vocating improvements in the conditions
OF organized labor
He came 10 this city a number of years
ago and was employed for the most of
the time with the Outlet company,
where he was respected alike by the
members of the firm and the fellow
salespeople. There was never a ques-
ton concerning the betterment OF the
conditions of the craft OF which he was
a member. or OF the labor world in gen.
eral locally. that his advice was not
sought in and accepted.
The local with which he was directly
connected and for which he toiled the
hardest was the retail clerks OF which he
was one OF the charter members and one
OF the Oldest. Many of the Improvements
known TO the body were directly gotten
through him and the success of the or
ganization TO the present time is very
largely owing to his manly bearing and
untiring efforts.
AS member OF the Central Labor
union he was a factor in every advance
and II is here that his vast services were
best known and will be most missed. In
addition to being a member OF these or
ganizations he was also prominent in the

however and his energies were not
equal to the physical strain placed upon

city whose death will cause so general
a grief as that of Walter A. Clarke.
