The news-democrat. (Providence, R.I.) 1906-1909, 1907-10-04

prevented any tfickS being pllleo on.
There were cries about Dunn's being
the friend OF labor but they fell on deaf
ears in most instances. One big factor
In the fight was the energetic work done
at the caucus by the friends OF Mr.
Gamer.
More than score OF men who had
supported Alderman Dunn i'm previous
fighs> said last night that he owed his
defeat TO his threats to down Mayor Nc
Cartny and Representative Hogan. As
was stated I'm The Democrat after
the first rally held under the Hosnn-
Gamer auspices. the ward seems 10 be
Mccarthy stronghold. Mr. Hogan's OPP
ponent for the school committee proba-
bly, regrets that he saw it to oppose 50
capable man as Mr.. Hogan.
One of the most earnest supporters OF
the Hogan-Gaines ticket has been former
Alderman Mccarthy. who has opposed
Dunn for years. Last evening the formc.
alderman put the Hogan ticket I'm nomi-
nation. A big factor in the defeat Of Dunn
and O'Neill was undoubtedly the low
plane OF their campaign. They INDUCED
In very unpleasant mud singing and the
Hoganites. on the other hand, refused To
be drawn into personalities.
Though Alderman Dunn down town last
night threatened dire vengeance on Chair
man Luther for simply seeing that the
laws were enforced at the caucus and also
declared he would be the next alderman
just the same and further declared that
he would form a new party he will have
to work hard 10 recover the prestige he
has lost through last nights defeat. Jo-
seph II. Gamer according to the most
careful observers OF affairs at last nights
caucus will easily defeat the present al
derman.
