For the "Smyrna Times"
The Fifty Cent Men.

Mr. EDITOR The following list comprises
the names of our citizens who were called by ex-
Senator Bewley 6 fifty cent men" numerous
class of his constituents whom he spurned to
represent because they own no real estate
But it will be seen that many Of them are
among the principal property holders and best
citizens of the town, yet the ex-senator classes
all as too poor to receive his august considera-
ton. Did he spurn them ON election day P
1t will be remembered that ne charged cor
fuption' upon some of the friends of the new
Charter; perhaps, not daring to specify the
parties thus accused, he accused them of the
sin of poverty-how truthfnly, we let the list
speak.
We the undersigned tax payers of the town of
Smyrna represent to your Honorable Body by this
petition that the act entitled "An Act to Incor-
porate the Town of Smyrna :" meets our approba-
ton, and we respectfully ask you to pass the said
act as it now stands.
