been one which has brought very heavy
, burden 10 his shoulders. He has seemed
. 10 feel from the first that the welght
OF the entire police department rested on
him.
In some way he appeared 10 forget that
; by reason or a certain section OF the city
charter the mayor is chiefly responsible
, for the administration OF police affairs.
but this must have been because OF his
great desire TO accomplish results. Now
having had fling at the work as chair
man OF the committee on police. II Is
said that Mr.. Bradley would like To have
the additional burden which is imposed
on the mayor and therefore some OF his
friends are talking OF him as a candidate
for that position.
IL would be an excellent nomination for
the party TO make. II would prevent the
sacrifice OF some other good men. and 10
Mr.. Bradley could be given the honor of
being I'm the also ran" class. He would
probably receive few votes at least
those who were delegates 20 the nomna-
ting convention would probably vote for
him, and after the thing was all over the
! Democratic candidate would be declared
elected. just as he will under any circum-

M npst as the Pawtucket City Hospital and
now under the new name. and during this

the size or Pawtucket needs n hospital
Ihere Is scarcely day IL is not called
! upon To treat emergency cases and there
are many cases OF sickness which have to
be cared for Many OF these emergency
cases partake OF the character OF charity.
Persons who happen 10 meet with sudden
injury on the streets have no choice as 10
where they shall be taken and II Is possi-
bic that when they are cured they or their
Families are unable TO pay for the treat
ment received. In such cases the hos

den Is not slight one. Physicians, sur
geons, medicine supplies OF every kind
and nurses cost money. and II is the duty
OF the city TO help I'm the support of this
institution.
II has been said that II was the purpose
OF one OF the leading citizens TO present
a fully equipped hospital TO Pawtucket
This promise was said to have been made
some months ago. but since that time
nothing has been heard about H. Whether
or not such n thing ever materializes is OF
no consequence In considering the needs
of the Twin City hospital Next week II
goes Into Its new home, which has been
built In accordance with plans which were
adopted by this board. 1t Is equipped
with the most modern appliances for the
handling OF disease and for accident
cases. IL employs corps OF trained
nurses and on its board OF physicians and
surgeons are some OF the best medical
men I'm this city and Providence. The
city council has the right 10 make an
appropriation and when the need Is so
great that right becomes a duty which
ought not to be long delayed.
