If free trade was established the pro= duction of China alone would put ev= ery mill and manufacturing establish- ment in New England out of business. If a proteetive tariff has increased the cost ‘of living, it provided for higher wages, high enough to meet the high- er cost of necesities of life. He then spoke of the necessity of getting out the full republican vote of Washing- ton county, and especially Westerly, in order to make good possible losses in the northern part of the state. He urged the hearty support of all to Mr. Utter, and the candidates for senate ang_house, making special reference to the support of Mr, Murphy, the reg- ular republican nominee, who has four oppoments in the First district. The speaker said that the nomina- tion of Mr. Cooney should not e con- sidered serious, as he was defeated for congress two Years ago by 9,000, apd this majority should be increased for Mr. Utter. He urged all to stand for republican policies, that are not as changeable as the winds, and give the state of Rhode Island the largest re- publican majority ever. The closing speech was by Judge Sweeney, who made special reference to the Banking 'aw which was put into effect by Governor Pothier and the re- publican general assembly, with its advantageous segregation clause, which is appreciated by depositors. Mr. Waterman. the democratic. nominee, was opposed to that clause.
