gang has control OF fve out OF the six
wards. and they are ruled from his office
and not from the city council
'Gentlemen. IL you should go TO the
meetings of that body you would see It's
members turning To the office OF the COM
missioner OF public works before going
10 their committee room. And. gentlemen.
not being satisfied with the five wards.
they are looking with longing eyes TO cap
ture this ward During the past year
they have been unduly pestered by the
representatives from this ward. and they
intend that such shall not be the case
hereafter
Their candidate TO oppose Alderman
McCaughey has already been picked out
and he - prominent grain dealer on
North Main street, who Is chosen 10 be
the Moses to lead them 10 victory and
defeat McCaughey. / do not know how
deep he Is i'm this deal, but l am sur
prised that he would lend his sanction
TO the gang.
II warn you, fellow Democrats, TO look
out for the man who works in the public
works department. If you can win In
one ward this year and keep nagging at
them you are sure 10 accomplish results.
Don't be discouraged and say that II Is
impossible to accomplish results. Dur
ing my four years experience l have
been lighting this gang. and will continue
20 do so. There is nothing which have
said against this crew that have 10 re-
tract
''In Pawtucket we have several alder
men who do not have to work They
don't have 10 while they do the bidding
OF the boss and go TO the city council and
vote away money for bituithic pavement
and a $500. 900 water works contract which
will be disposed OF under the direction of

see that these men live not by their wits.
but by their merits.
There is some hope that the gang will
not hold together long and that some or
the members will say that IL Is too much
money 70 be expended by one man, as
he has not. evidently, whacked up, and
maybe II he does not divide they may
squeal and we will be able to know
the doings In this department.
There is nothing TO which they Will
not stoop 10 In order TO attain their ends.
To illustrate this ! will relate to you
one incident In which this man Barclay
figured when he tried to deprive man OF
an honest living because he was related TO
Alderman McCaughey.
This man was working for contract
ing firm from Boston at the slater park
and because OF his relationship TO your
alderman Barclay decided that he should
not be employed there. He went over
to see the boss OF the gang and made
the request that he be discharged, but
this man had the sand TO Withstand Bar
clay's order, and, despite his threats, ne
was told that the man would continue
Working at the place as long as he gave
satisfaction.
"Gentlemen, there are other incidents
~ the nefarious work OF this Infamous
Barclay and his city hall gang. one or
which concerns the police department
OF which no doubt you have been made
aware. In relation TO this, want TO tell
you that this gang is waiting for me 10
leave the city so that they can sneak IN
their men. Now, IL this is the case, IL Is
plan that my candidates. who have not
a blemish on their reputation. cannot be
appointed by the city council because
they are honest.
1--WE hear much concerning our nom
partisan school committee, and, fellow
Democrats, / want TO relate to you an
incident which IL perpetrated by Demo
cratic majority would call for indigna-
tion meetings in the Alcazar and Music
hall. When a meeting OF the committee
was scheduled to be held IL was found
that there was just quorum, three
Democrats and two Republicans being
present.
They could not be afraid that the Demo-
Gratis would spend their money for all the
money which the city had was spent by
the Republican board They call the
Republicans non-partlsan and so TO break
up the meeting one OF the non-partisan
members left, so that the board could
neither adjourn nor transact business.
"You can vote for the members OF the
legislature and school committee, and to
do so you must register Immediately and
not let II go until 1t is too late and YOU
find that you are disqualified. The state
legislature is the key to the situation
and do not neglect that right. To vote
for members OF that body you must
register and exercise that privilege. by
putting your name on the voting list
other speeches were made by Thomas
B Corcoran and Thomas OBrien. and in
addition TO this there were other rallies
on Prospect street and School street, each
OF which was well attended.
