BOYLE IS AGAIN
IN RUNNING FOR
NEWPORT MAYOR

Hon. =. ]. Boyle, who was elected DEM
ocratc mayor OF Newport II times. all OF
which were consecutive but two Is in the
field for the mayoralty nomination this
fall
IL has been supposed that former Mayor
Boyle was resting quietly and preparing
for the nomination for senator on the
representative ticket; but this his friends
say, Is no longer even thought OF by Mr.
Boyle, who is considered the strongest
Democrat In Newport, whose record has
been brilliant one and whose executive
ability no one has ever disputed
In all the party troubles In the past. IL
was he who led the army OF voters IN
success
Col William =. Clarke will be In the
race for the nomination also; but even
his ardent supporters doubt IL he can
measure political strength with former
Mayor Boyle especially as now that the
city Is 10 be run under a new charter it
Will require man of practical expert
ence for mayor under its operations
In the Fifth ward, which has always
been a hotbed OF Democra ~ there Will
be lively caucus for alderman as Coun-
Gilman Morgan is out for the place and n
warm contest is a natural result.
In all the wards there will be spirited
contests, inasmuch as under the new
charter IL looks as IL all new men would
be given the preference
The situation as regards the general as
sembly battle will be one OF the warmest
battles ever fought here, as the Republi-
cans will fight hard to have a solid Re-
publican delegation go to Providence for
Senator Wetmore.

In Middletown the hottest kind Of poll

Every possible effort by the Republican

ROOSEVELT AIDS
SEAMAN IN THE

President Roosevelt has contributed 800
10 be used by Rear Admiral Thomas OF
the Newport training station i'm a legal
suit TO determine whether a man may be
excluded from public place OF entertain
ment because he wears the uniform OF
the United States army or navy. and to-
day made public the following letter
which he has sent to Rear Admiral
Thomas:
oyster Bay, n. Y, Sept. q, 1906.
Dear Admiral Thomas-I enclose s1G0
TO be used in that suit. which. thanks TO
you. has been SO wisely undertaken TO
test the legality OF excluding any man
from any public place OF entertainment
because he wears the United States uni
form.
II feel that IL is the duty Of every good
citizen TO endeavor in every shape and
way TO make IL plain that he regards the
uniform OF the United States army and
navy, just as much when worn by en- en-
listed man as when worn by an officer, as
badge Of honor and therefore sntitling
the wearer TO honor so long as he behaves
decently.
There Is no finer body OF men I'm all our
country than the enlisted men OF the
army and navy OF the United States and
! cannot sufficiently express my indigna-
ton and contempt for any man who
treats his uniform save with the respect
&c which IL is entitled.
If man misbehaves himself then no
matter what uniform he wears he should
be dealt with accordingly; but the fact
OF wearing the United States uniform
should be accepted as presumptive evil
dence that the man who wears il is all
right; and any discrimination against the
uniform as such. is more than presump-
tive evidence that the man thus dscrim-
mating is all wrong.
Sincerely yours.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"
Rear Admiral Thomas is reported 10 be
paying half the expense of the suit for

Leader Says His Delegates Will Not Hold CaucWeS 0nI
Tomorrow Night After Preliminary Work Of the Convention
Is Completed

Buffalo, N. Y. Sept. 24.-The day pre-
ceding the Democratic state convention
finds the party leaders still apparently as
widely apart as ever as 10 the head Of
the ticket and in the hot contest which
is being waged over the selection OF Il
gubernatorial candidate. the question OF
filling the minor offices is almost COM
pletely lost sight OF.
Even the platform finds but casual men
ton. so engrossed are the arriving del
egates In the fight as to who shall be the
principal nominee. Late arrivals al the
1roquois hotel, where all the rival fac
tions are making their headquarters, ask
eagerly for news as TO how the situation
looks and as 10 how the tide seems TO be
setting. but they receive but scant infor-
nation as a series of important confer
ences which extended far into last night
were adjourned with no definite conclu-
sion reached.
There were as many conferences as
there are candidates and more and no one
OF them was OF a character which could
decide the contest, even though all its
members should have been OF the same
mind.
There was much speculation as TO what
the decision OF the Tammany caucus
would be. Contrary to general expecta-
tions, Leader Charles r Murphy has an
nounced that IL will not be held tonight,
as at former conventions, but may be
called tomorrow night after the first ses-
sion Of the convention has met and ad-
journed.
II Tammany should hold together as IL
always has done in the past, the 105 votes
controlled by the organization may be
the deciding influence In the convention.
This is nearly one-half OF the number OF
votes necessary to a nomination.

WETM0RE MEN
TALKING WARM
AGAINST COLT

There is no division OF sentiment in
Newport as regards the fight for the
senatorship. for the Republicans can see
no one else but Senator Wetmore; and
they will not hear of the name of Colonel
Colt being mentioned in any connection
with the contest.
They say IL will be a waste Of money for
the Colt managers 70 send IL 10 Newport
for even the women are working in the
interest OF Wetmore, so far as the Repub-
lican side OF the battle is concerned
The Wetmore men say some pretty
warm things about the Colt candidacy.
"Colt is hardly a stranger 10 Newport"
said one of them today. ''as will be shown
whenever he or his managers declare
him candidate for the boots of Senator
Wetmore. We Republicans OF Newport
recall the time when Colonel Colt was
mentioned for governor. and are well
aware why he did not succeed in getting
the nomination"
