dozen handcaps. He said nothing. how
ever. that was even calculated to enthuse
the most susceptible, al his remarks were
about as far from anything Of pertinence
TO the Providence mayoralty situation as
is the north pole from the south.
1t was not at all strange. Of course,
that this aristocratic scion OF wealth
should talk about money at some time
during the course Of his remarks; but 1t
was not expected that his whole speech
would be devoted TO money, gold and ell
yer and greenbacks. while absolutely
nothing was said about the local ,ssUes
important to the people OF this city.
Never once did he mention the Ferry

city council committee, nor refer to his
alleged statement, some years ago. that

He did manifest some anxiety for the
success OF the Republican ticket, and

aging advice

At the regular meeting OF the trustees
OF the Rhode Island Temperance league
on Monday il was unanimously voted that
the following statement should be pub
lished as the authorized expression OF the
league concerning the duty of independent
voters in the present campaign:
1--WE have annually appointed a special
committee 10 seek information from lead
ing citizens in each town regarding can
ddates and to give sanction to the pub
fishing OF the names OF all these parties
who could be indorsed as men who, II
elected, will vote to enact Temperance
legislation i'm the legislature or will hon
estly strive 70 enforce the law IL In Of
flee.
This year we face a different question.
Experience has made us painfully aware
that many men on whom we could depend
IL they were acting untrammelled have
been unable TO do as they were expected
10 do The absolute influence OF one man
in the legislature not only prevented tho
consideration OF our measures. but per-
mitted the repeal of amendments which
had been secured and relieved the liquor
sellers from certain restraints.
1T is stated by those whose word we
credit that IL is the avowed purpose OF
the boss il he retains his present con-
troll, 10 wipe out at his next session all
the temperance amendments and 70 give
the liquor business such legislation as will
satisfy II.
I'VE are firmly convinced that IL Charles
r. Brayton has control OF enough mem
bers Of the next senate and assembly he
will fulfill this program.
If those who composed the last legis-
lature are reelected 1t is impossible to
expect him 10 allow the Republican mem
bers 10 take favorable action upon the
amendments for which We have asked
during the past seven years, and which
have been endorsed By men in official po-
sition as worthy OF enactment -
We believe that there Is no hope OF
further restraining the evils OF this busi-
ness or even OF retaining the present re-
straints Of the law so long as Charles r.
Brayton is the dominant Boss
Most OF those Republicans who obeyed
his dictation last year are renominated.
