BOSTON MAN IN TROUBLE.
Henry Landsman of Boston, former
valley clothing dealer visited the valley
on Tuesday and as result was served
with a writ OF arrest by Deputy Sheriff
Andrews and II caused him some little
trouble and considerable delay in getting
back to the hub.
The trouble is of long standing and
dates back TO the time when Landsnian
closed out his store at Arctic Centre TO
leave the valley. at which time he had
some difficulty with Max Hirchheld, an
other Arctic Centre merchant.
Landsman sued TO recover a certain
wax figure, which Hirchfield had, and
which was claimed by Landsman.
The affair was threshed out in the
courts with the result that Landsman
failed to prove his case. and yesterday a
writ OF arrest was served upon him at the
instance OF Hirchfeld for false arrest
After some delay in giving bond he was
released. and once more the matter goes
TO the courts. 1t is reported that Hirch-
field is TO cue to recover $1,000 damage.

DUNN FOLLOWERS
HOLD A RALLY

The Dunn forces held a rally last even
Ing at which addresses were delivered
chiefly in opposition to the enrolment
which is now an accomplished fact
The principal speakers were Councilman
John j. O'Neil and the alderman himself
and they did not mince words in dealing
with the situation created by the enroll
ment. In fact, some of the language used
was so unparliamentary that 1t would not
look we'll in print outside OF the Republi-
can machine organ
Frank Reavey acted as chairman and
Councilman Donovan and William j.
Nolan, candidate for school committee,
declared IL was the duty OF Democrats
whose names have been scratched to ap-
pear before the executive committee OF
the city committee and demand reinstate-
ment.
The following is a sample OF the O'Neil
style OF oratory:
Although l haven't looked through the
lists very thoroughly, / think we've got
those misfits skinned a mile. Out in my
section they scratched off the enterpris-
ing Italians just because Alderman Dunn
lives out there and because Mr.. Dunn has
attended TO their interests In getting work
done on the streets. They cut off pretty
nearly all the Jews They left few on,
probably few personal friends who may
possibly owe them money.
How strange II seems, gentlemen. 1t
takes all the professional men in Provi-
dence to defeat a plumber. Can you beat
that? This fight Is one to supplant the
present alderman and they dare not come
out and fight squarely. 1t Is an injustice
to have those criticisms OF Mr.. Dunn"
Alderman John c. Dunn asserted that
when certain men were renegades asso-
ciated with him they got square deal. In
part he said:
"They haven't shown why they should
have ordered an enrolment In the Third
ward, one OF the best Democratic wards
In the city. They can't show a reason,
either. The only reason is that they are
afraid to come out and give fair and
square fight. They take advantage like the
thief in the dark and scratch the names
of good Democrats. disfranchising them.

whose names were sent In by the ward
