MACHINE MEN
VERY UNEASY
The Danger Of the Loss Of Corporation Control in the General
Assembly, Owing TO The Internal DIsssnsons In the Party
Growing Out Of tho Colt Candidacy, Together With tho
Strength Of The Peoples Movement for Good Government

IF ever a political party was in des-
perate straits. according TO admissions
made by the leaders themselves. that par
ty is the Republican party" said a dis
gusted member of the party today.
THE chief trouble is, OF course over
the senatorship. Many OF the clearest

forth by Col. Colts friends that the bust
ness interests Of Providence. other than
the influence OF Marsden j. Perry con-
trolls them. will rally TO his support
Many Republicans say they cannot see
that Col Colt has gained any strength
since he ran against DIR. Garvin for gov
ernor, but has really been considerably
weakened as a political factor by the
pushing OF his candidacy by Messrs. Per-
ry and Aldrich.
The wiser portion OF the Republican
leaders know that the people cannot be
fooled this time into supporting a man
the business interests OF the country will
suffer disaster unless such a man is elect
ed senator.
These leaders fear that there will be
political revolution that will send the
corporations which have fattened on the
people or Rhode Island to the woods.
IL cannot be denied, however. that the
Colt interests are very potent I'm the coun-
sells OF the party. Their wishes have been
so readily complied with I'm the past that
they cannot or will not understand why
the goods should not be delivered"

of this state TO make a concerted move
