The ruins of the burned Chester build ing, after several months' service as an eyesore to the community, and a black- oYe to the town by reason of the prom- inence - of location opposite the railw. station, has been finally razed, and appearance of that section has thdreuy been materially improved. At @ meeting of the executive council of the republican club of Rhode Island, the services of the club during the com- ing campaign were tendered Joseph P. Burlingame chairman of the republican state committee, TWwenty-fivq more are to. be added to the membership of the executive council. George B. Utter, of Westerly is the town's official represen- tative in the club. The republican or- ganization in the state is -complete, which is in marked contrast of the dem- ocratic lack of organization. g\ere is no democratic organization in Wellterly and no provision has been even made for a party caucus to elect dele- gates or make nominations for senator and representatives. The state organi- zation has evidently ignored the local democrats, who have heen endeavoring to keep the few within the party fold.

His friends feared he had been the victim of foul play and they sought the assistance of Police Chief Brown, who started an investigation.
