Westerly Jitngy Driver Hits Bov Wheel Went Over Arm and Shoulder and Foot Was Frac- tured—Old Woman Pays Providence to Westerly Tour Outlined. Several one-day automobile tours within the state of Rhode Island have been semi-officialiy outlined. One that combines good roads, scenic beauty and historic points of inter- est, is the route that leads out of Providence to the Nooseneck road to Westerly and around to Narragansett Pier, and reversed when the start is made from Westerly is thus discribed: The Nooseneck Hill road is reached by an abrupt left turn in Washington village. The road resembles a drive- way into the mill yard rather than a public highway. It passes between the mill and a white house standing close by on the corner. The road over Nooseneck Hill leads through some of the most picturesque hills and dales of the state. The road twists and turns through the cottage section, passes through the open country and emerging toward the ocean runs close to the shore af- fording the occupants of the car a magnificent combination of land and seascapes. At the end of the drive is the road leading to the Point Judith lighthouse and life-saving station. Nearby is the great breakwater that the government is constructing as n hari refuge or sorely pressed vessels that are compelled to s s romontory, regarded by imen as one of the dangerous points on the entire return to Providence familiar Pier Toad, wi Wickford, F is lies route road upon sdged with trees Tony Conti, when in High street, near K aturday and the 1 infully The boy | Bill of 38 Years Standing— been formed in Westerly and named Pequots, with Miss Alice E.

The account was 38 years old and the woman was inform- cd that it was outlawed many_times. She declared it was a just debt and that she wanted to pay it, now that he had the money, as it was a burden on her conscience.

Hill be- lieves that the question of taking the vote of the Connecticut militiamen at the Mexican border can be settled by calling a special session of the legis- lature to appoint commissioners to go to the border and take the vote is ex- pressed in a letter from Mr. Hill to Gov. Marcus H. Holcomb despatched from Washington Friday night. Congressman Hill outiines his posi- tion as follows: “It would be a gross injustice to the boys down on the border to_ deprive them of their right to vote. I belleve that the thirteenth amendment to the constitution was definitely limited to the Civil war, but a basty examination of the constitution leads me to believe that it was not a legal necessity to take this course then, nor do I think it is now. I think the whole tenor and right of the constitution is to the effect that the time, place and manner of holding elections:should be'discre- tionary with the general assembly. “To me, it 18 simply a question of legal residence and the proper authen- tication of voters’ intent. I did not lawyer and a graduate of Yale and was formerly corporation counsel of the city of New York. suppose that anybody on earth woyld claim that a soldier geing away in the service of the government, unless dis- trictly barred as a member of the reg- ular army, would thereby lose his resi- dence, 50 that question muy be con- sidered settled that the boys on the border, if they were at home, would have a perfect right to vote. he question is, has the legis! the power to appoint commissioners to go to the border and take their vote without their coming home. Person ally I believe, after a somewhat cas examjration of the constitution, that they have a right to do it, for, as I look at it, all power resident in the people and not forbidden by the con- stitution of Connecticut, is exercised through the general assembly, and it scems to me that this gross injustice of depriving them of their vote while 1 | ture their state shculd not be done unlcs there is a distinct and specific pro- vision depriving the legislature of the power to give them the privilesge. “I have read the ciauses with re- gard to the meetings of electors and modifications of it in the subsequent In the service of their country and of | amendments, but if I were governor of Connecticut T am satisfied I would call | & meeting of the general assembly and {put the proposition squarely up to | them and Jet them decide the case. Personally, I believe the action would nd as law, but T am not a lawyer.
