r. 1. Result Depressing
(From the Lewiston Journal }

Perhaps the most depressing result OF
Tuesdays election is that of Rhode ISL
and. Those standing for better things
than such as have been embodied in Bray
ton, Aldrich and Wetmore in the Repub-
lican party OF Rhode Island combined to
elect better senator than Wetmore. Tho
reformers are defeated nominally; but
they are not defeated on the popular bal
lot, since the reform governor, who has
stood for better things I'm Rhode Island. is
reelected. though the legislature be be-
nayed to the old system Governor Hig-
gins is reelected because he has done
things, in particular because he succeeded
in driving Republican Boss Brayton from
the state house. But the methods OF
choosing members OF the Rhode Island
legislature are such that the popular will
Is not legislatively embodied. We agreo
with the Boston Transcript that IL Wet
more is elected to the United States sem
ate, IL will be plain to the world that the
state will be represented by man IL does
not want and will be compelled to lose
the services of Col. Goddard. whom it de-
