GAMBLERS ARE
STILL BUSY IN
THREE PLACES

Gambling still goes merrily on at New
port. Tiverton and on the Silver Hook
road in the town Of Warwick, under Re
publican machine protection.
The place in North Providence to which
public attention has been called, was
closed YESTERDAY, Town Sergt. George r.
Willis having ordered a constable TO act:
and II will probably remain closed. as in
the past until the present furry blows
over and the public forgets about it,.
Then the game will go merrly on again
and. Of course, the town authorities will
know nothing about II. as heretofore.
Explaining his activity In Lincoln, and
inaction at North Providence. High Sheriff
Hunter c. White says:
I'VE received complaints Of an illegal
business in the sale OF liquor and he closed
the place in Lincoln Sunday.
This kind of thing is up to the local
authorities themselves. When they find
that they are unable to cope with any
such difficulty satisfactorily, and COM
paint is made to us, then the state au-
thorities step in.

made any move in those directions"

The names of these men are said to be

These places have been in operation for
some time
The North Providence resort Is said to
be run by n man named Moran, a name
not unfamiliar in the First ward in this
city.
Newport and Tiverton are both under
control OF Republican police commission
ers. Warwick is Boss Braytons own Re

not been disturbed by the governor by
High Sheriff White, nor by the local a,i-
thorities: and no one expects they ~ill be

CUMBERLAND
LEARNS NEED OF
FIRE PROTECTION

once more has the fact been impressed
upon the taxpayers OF the town that an
up-to- date system OF fire protection is
needed
The burning Of the big ice houses in
ROBIN Hollow yesterday emphasizes the
fact so forcibly presented al the last fire
district meeting that complete and up
to-date fire alarm system should be put
In at once. Had there been an alarm
system In operation yesterday "a box could
have been pulled and the fremen would
have been on hand at least 30 minutes
earlier than they arrived
The annual meeting OF the fire district
Will be held Monday. Dec. 3, and the Two
large hres which have occurred recently
VIII probably have the effect OF creating
more interest Ina this subject than was
evidenced by the attendance at the last
special meeting OF the lire district
The report presented by the committee
appointed TO ascertain the cost Of an up
to-date service is being printed. and Will
be circulated among the taxpayers before
the next meeting.
Not only should Cumberland have
perfect fire alarm system, but the prcsens
building should be enlarged 50 as to ac-
with men, horses and hose wagons III con-
slant readiness for emergencies. and a
company OF call men who could be sum
mOned from their work near the fire
station when needed.
II the town has few moro fires with
the damages as high as those which have
occurred recently, some or the people VINO
have stood in the way OF an up-to date
fire protection will be swept aside and the
taxpayers Will vote TO give the town
what IL has long needed--a complete and
perfect fire protection. no matter what
the cost.
