THE DUTY OF THE DAY.

e The registration committee of the Young
Mems Democratic club is doing some excellent
work. Now is the time to register" is the battle
cry of the committee.
SO it is; and during the past few days the
voters have begun to realize this fact. Many men
who can register at any time they WISH however,
do not seem to realize the good effect OF example
When registration is large before the last week,
it is easy enough TO big attendance at the
city hall on the closing nights of June
The man who registers now does double SER
vice He not only qualities himself to take part in
the coming battle for representative government,
but he gives encouragement TO others
Now is the time to register" is what you, as
good citizen, should impress upon every one you
meet.
1t is pleasant to note that registration is nearly
1900 ahead of last year; but at the same time one
must regret that it is many thousands short of
what it should be.
The members trades unions this CITY
have started vigorous campaign to place every
unionst on the books at the city hall, as we'll as
every friend of reform In many instances the labor
pose but it is duty they owe to themselves and to
the state
The labor organizations are indignant over the
treatment they have received from the Republican
machine and determined than ever to be
in position to make themselves felt next Noven.

Every good citizen should be equally aroused
by existing conditions; and to register immediately
is the first step toward securing the change that
is bound to come.

THURSDAY, MAY "a, 1906.
NOT MEN, BUT METHODS.

The campaign in which the Democrats and
Independents now enlisted should not be ms
understood
The people are not in revolt against men, but
against methods. Their interest eeaers not III the
individuals, but in conditions with which the in
divduals are inseparably identified.
The personality of either Senator Wetmore or
Col. Colt, even of Boss Brayton himself, is not the
issue except in so far that personality is related
10 the abuses and wrongs created and fostered by
the Republican ring that seeks to perpetuate itself
in power in defiance of the rights OF the people and
OF every fundamental principle of republican form
of government.
Many pleasant things may be said of each of
the men engaged in that nefarious work; but the
people OF Rhode Island in the present situation are
not concerned with their personal qualities.
The people are, however, deeply interested in
the outrageous conditions that make the domna-
ton of those men possible, with the methods en-
ployed by them to secure and maintain their grip
on the throats of the people, and with the results
that follow their domination.
Against unbearable conditions shameless
methods and nquitous measures the people rebel :;
and they have but passing interest in the humil-
iating scramble among the Republicans for the
senatorial and other nominations.
Whether it be Wetmore or Colt matters not to
the people, for the personality of the candidate
does alter in the least the concrete wrongs that
the people fighting to remove, and which they
will remove in November as sure as it be true tina.
