The news-democrat. (Providence, R.I.) 1906-1909, 1906-10-17

z
OF the Democratic workers OF Pawtucket
tn Eagle hall, Smith building, and al that
time plans for carrying on the campaign
IN this city will be talked over. and II Is
believed that the meeting Will mark the
beginning OF the most strenuous hght
which the Pawtucket Democrats have
ever put up. A great many OF these
workers. as well as hundreds OF the rank
and file OF the party, attended the big
ratificati ton meeting In Infantry hall, Prov
fdence, last evening and they came away
with new courage and with a determine
tion To make this a winning fight.
They learned from the lips OF Mayor
James H. Higgins and from Col Robert
IL l. Goddard that there Is no split be-
tween the Lincoln party and the Demo
cratic party Mayor Higgins told them
what all OF his near friends have known
for several days. that the failure OF the
Lincoln party OF the Goddard campaign
committee to endorse the Democratic
state ticket was due as much TO his own
advice as TO that OF any other member
of that committee. The 1eople have read
q good deal during the past few days
about this matter. and II is only In the
columns OF The News Democrat that the
true facts have been given.
Efforts have been made TO cause trou-
bic. but these efforts have proved un-
successful, and they will act as boom
erang and give TO the Democratic ticket
even greater support than II would other-
wise have received. The people who al
tended the meeting last evening also
learned from the lips Of Col. Goddard him
self that he Is heart and soul In favor OF
the election OF Mayor Higgins and the
rest OF the Democratic ticket and they
heard him pledge himself TO the voters
Of Rhode Island TO cast his vote for mat
ticket on election day. Certainly nothing
noLA
the words OF Mayor Higgins, which fol-
Aowed those OF Col. Goddard, completely
shattered the claims which have been
made by the Brayton-Colt- Perry organ
on Friday evening of this week there
IS TO be a big rally In the hall on Caina-
tion street There have been other rail-
lies In this hall and some Of them have
drawn big crowds. but there is every res-
son to expect that this one Will be the
biggest thing OF the kind that was ever
held on the east side OF the city. IL Is
announced that John ]. Fitzgerald will
be one OF the speakers and IL Is possible
that Mayor Higgins will alsc be there to
give a word TO his home friends.
This battle for the Democracy mas De
gun In this city and II Is going TO be
hot one The Pawtucket Democrats are
nroud Of the fact that at the head or
the state ticket is their young and much
loved mayor and II is confidently believed
that on election day there VIII be pileo up
for him I'm this city such majority as
was never before given 10 candidate Tor
governor in the history OF the state
