duced Mayor Patrick j. Mccarthy, who
spoke i'm part as follows:
THE question before us from now until
the 29th OF June is registration. Regis
tration is ahead OF many banner years
this year and the list is still increasing.
This is leading up 10 big vote I'm the
fall and we must secure our share OF that
vote.
II thought when Col. Goddard was
nominated as the candidate for senator
that the nomination was premature. but
now 1 think that IL was a good thing,
and / would advocate that before you
go into your caucuses you would make
your selections OF the officers that you
intend to nominate at that time. so that
the people may have co confidence in
your honesty and good intentions. I
think this would make more people take
an interest in the caucuses than have
done so in previous years. Many people
hesitate TO attend caucus because OF
the diseraceful mismanagement that has
attended such gatherings In past years.
I'VE know there are enemies In our
own household and we know who they
are and what they are after. They are
men who pretend TO be Democrats, but
who are really the agents OF the Re
publican machine that has heretofore
controlled the Republican party.
THE delegation I'm the general assem-
bly, from Providence during the last ses-
sion acquitted itself well. and l think
everyone OF it's members is entitled TO
denomination and recollection. They not
only served the Democratic party and the
Independents. but they served the state.
/ have heard that in some OF the wards
there are factions being formed TO see
that none OF these men is reelected to
the assembly, and we must take care to
see that they are again returned for an
other year"
THEODORE FRANCIS GREEN
Theodore Francis Green said This
is the commencement of the next years
campaign. Last years book was closed
the night OF the Goddard dinner. but the
story was continued In our next The
last session was pleasing and interesting
to the members of the minority and /
think that all enjoyed the fight.
1--WE had great difficulty in getting the
members of the majority to talk. but
when they did think that 10 minutes OF
their talk did more than two days OF
ours could do for reform. Our idea was
to keep the public interested I'm the ses-
sion that we might show them exactly
what was going on. but we were unable
to really attack any Of the Republican
measures IL the Republicans would not
talk and strike a blow for themt The
public became interested. studied. saw
the conditions and will l believe, take
steps to change them.
Another thing which has been done
by the minority has been the undermin-
ing OF Brayton's poNer. Although Bray
ton was not driven out Of the state house
in body. in the last hours or an important
session ne was left deserted and alone,
and to me IL looks as II Brayton the
Boss had been driven out"
John w. Hogan spoke briefly. urging
that particular attention be given to reg

ing when he entered the First Baptist

REFORMERS TOLD
NEW G. @. P.LEAGUE
ISN'T SINCERE

Col Patrick III. Quinn declared last eve
ming that there was striking analogy
between ex-senator Wetmore's attack on
Boss Brayton and Lucifer rebuking sin.
Col. Quinn was the principal speaker at
big meeting or the Young Mems Demo
cratic club in the hall on Eddy street and
In the course OF his address he warned
independents who had aided the Demo-
Gratis i'm their fight last year not TO be
'misled or cajoled or lulled into any
sleep of apathy or inertia" by the Wet
more supporters.
Waxing specific Col Quinn said:
Between Samuel Pomeroy Colt and
George Peabody Wetmore no true reform
er can have any choice. The methods that
are now charged against one have been
the methods OF the other for a quarter of
a century.
THE Democratic party OF Rhode Island
and It's Independent allies are entering
upon the second year of their great fight
TO prevent the sale of our United States
senatorship to the highest bidder OF two
rich men. But II those OF our separated
brethren-nominally of another political
faith--who acted with us last fall desire
TO accomplish any lasting reform in this
state, they must not be misled nor ca
joled into any retreat or recantation on
their views, nor lulled into any sleep OF
apathy or inertia by the high-soundng
but empty resolves of Wetmore purity

is that a Democratic general assembly
