CONTINUED TAXATION.

The republican policy as embodied and declared in the Chicago platform is one of continued and even increased taxation for the promotion of special interests Economy and prudence, which are the basis and fabric of all good government, have no place in that policy, and are expressly re pudiated by the resolutions which call for increased governmental expenditures. There is no pretense of husbanding resources; nothing but an avowed purpose of con- tinuing excessive taxation in order to fur nsh excuse for lavish expenditures and magnificent subsidies.
 Higher duties more taxation, increased expenditures, that pretext may be found to continue special privileges under unequal legislation And strange as it may seem, not an article in ordinary use among the people is, according to this policy, to be relieved of taxation. Wool, lumber, salt, the raw materials of manufacture, even sugar are to be taxed; not penny of tax shall be taken off these articles which enter into the daily life and comfort of every workingman's family in the land. And yet the republicans tell us that they seek to promote the workingman's interest promote it, that is, by taxing him on every thing from the crown of his head to tLe soles of his feet and on everything that goes into his modest home. Here we have a tariff higher than ever was dreamed of before the war, higher than ever was i'm agined to b, necessary for purposes of protection, bringing in millions of money to the treasury every year, taking it out of the channels of trade and the pockets of the people where it properly belongs; and the republicans tell us that this needlessly high tariff should be continued, it should be perpetuated to suck the life of the nation in order to put great fortunes in the pockets of the favore d few. Is not this Bourbonism of the ex- tremest kind There should be no progress unless it be in the direction of higher taxes, no movement towards better tn ings, but war taxes on lifes necessaries, war taxes forever and ever and ever If the money that is coming from the people must be let loose in the business channels, if some of the burden must be lifted from the neck of an overburdened nation, let it come from rum and tobacco, but not one cent from | the necessities of life.
 The Chicago platform is a Bourbon plat form. It is fashioned like a crab-it goes backward. There is nothing cheering, noth- ing stimulating, nothing hopeful in a party that could father such monstrosity Thoughtful men will reject the platform they will defeat the party that built it.
 Unnecessary taxation is unjust taxation, and continued unjust taxation will not be tolerated by an enlightened and progressive country.

THE campaign in Indiana is developing the fact that General Hovey, the republi- can candidate for governor, left his militia ry post in the face of the enemy. In a report made as commander of the military division of the Mississippi July 25, 1864. General Sherman recorded it as his "em- phatic opinion that it is an act of injustice to officers who stand by their posts in the day of danger to neglect them and advance such as General Hovey, who left us in the midst of bullets to go to the rear in search of personal advancement" Hovey's record won't win many soldiers votes for him.

THE CITY TICKET.

The city convention last evening worked with harmony and unanimity that augurs well for success next Monday. A ticket was placed in the field that should win with ease, and that is sure to win if the demo- crats do their duty at the polls. There is not weak name on it. Every man but one on the ticket is at present holding the office for which he was named last evening, and is consequently peculiarly fitted to the discharge of it's duties.
 The faithful and efficient city clerk, Edward G. Kilduff, has kept the city records for many years, and his uniform courtesy and never-failing urbanity has made him favorite with all who have business with the office. The duties of the office have been particularly we'll attended tn during his incumbency, and few cities are blessed with 8 more competent and faithful city clerk. It is pleasant to note that his zeal and efficiency have earned him popularity and esteem with his fellow citizens, and that he will be again chosen to the office that he has filled so well. John w. Mcdonald, the city sheriff, has been model official, and years of service in the position have specially qualified him for the discharge of it's duties. MT Mcdonald has the respect and confidence of the citizens, which he hes well earned by his close attention to all the duties de- vo1ving upon him. He will be elected again and the city will be the gainer. William c. Keenan, the city treasurer, and James E. Birrell, the city auditor, are worthy gentlemen, competent and zealous officials, and qualified by an ample experience for the requirements of their relative positions. MT John H. Moran, the candidate for water commissi- oner, is the only untried man on the ticket, but he stands very high in the community and is well adapted for the exigencies of public office A man of rugged native force, of well balanced mind and matured judg-
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-09-25

ment, MT Moran will discharge well and faithfully the duties of water commissioner.
 The convention acted with wisdom and good judgment in their choice of city ticket. There can be no charge of incom- potency brought against the candidates, for their record is the proof of their capacity; and the personal popularity of each candi- date on the ticket is certain to assure his election. It was good nights work, and will unite and solidify the party. The dem ocracy of Waterbury will achieve a victory next Monday, and this will be but fore runner of the greater victory that vii perch on its banners in November.
 The city ticket is winner.

QUAY GOES FISHING.

Chairman Quay of the republican nation al committee has been on fishing trip fishing for ''fat' with the high tariff fo1 bait. While the democratic national com mittee openly pleads for contributions from those who have Gin view the benefit and prosperity of the whole country" Quay draws on the manufacturers, who, accord ing to Foster, "get the sole benefit, or at least the most directly important benefits Of the tariff laws" When Quay went on his fishing trip last week it was given out at Headquarters that he went for the benefit of his health. The Philadelphia Record gives the result of his health-seekin ing trip.
 The Record says that Quay has con- cluded that about half million must be fried out of the republican manufacturers of Philadelphia and Pittsburg He appor- toned $4OO, ,OO0 to Philadelphia and S10O,- 900 to Pittsburg. Of the $50, 1000 assessed on the carpet manufacturers $35, ,O0O was raised in single day, ,and a similar promp- titude has been shown by other industries assessed. This readiness to fry has com pletely restored MT. Quay and he is at his post again. His fishing trip, his health seeking expedition has been successful, ,and Matthew is himself again.
 Why do these manufacturers hesten to whack up at the rate of half million dol lars at the simple behest> of MT Quay Is it for the benefit of the wage-earner We'll, hardly. Pennsylvania, and notably Pitts burg, has been very prolific of strikes, and

Left at the Photographers.

Photographers are frequently puzzled to find means of disposing of the many toilet articles which ladies leave behind them in the dressing room. Paints, powder, false her and chamois skin do not retail at a very profitable price second hand. A Philadel- phia photographer has established counter where he sells .hese articles as a sort of an- nex to his regular business. The 'goods'' are fixed up, put into new boxes and sell nearly as we'll as when new. Of course the ladies never return to claim the property Chicago News

 ''There isn't any such thing, Johnny" re- piled the old gentleman, who had been in- volved in considerable litigation.
 "But this book says a man was 0 great law giver."
 Its a mistake. Law is never given. It's always retailed in mighty small quantities at mighty high figures. ."-Merchant Traveller.

13 East Main Street.

The people of the New England Shoe store
 whoever they arc, fOr they do not seem to think
 it advisable to use their own name) have kindly
 considered our lowly condition and in their ad
 in the DEMOCRAT have called the public's atten-
 tion to the fact that we give away towels. Under the caption of An Honest Fact" they
 also tell you we charge extra for the towels.
 They also give you that chestnut about carving could see some of it. That story is of the dimen- sions they gave you, when the brains of the houses in Boston told you that that old played out tired out worn out, pony and gig was $4OO worth No horseman in town would have given $65 for the turnout Yet they tell you it's an hon. est fact. Let the good work go on. Pile on your abuse, tell the people that our towels are worth less that our prices are way up. Let the public see how bad you feel. Tell everybody what narrow minded small souled, pusillanimous cuss W, F.
 Thoms is and from past records they will be sure to believe you. Say that giving away towels is illegtimate. Legitimacy! That comes in good taste from the New England, the first shoe concern to
 violate our state lottery laws, Be sure and bring An Honest Fact
 To the public:
 Buy your shoes of us. Our goods are warranted our prices the lowest in the city. Remember we give you towel instead of lottery ticket.

THE RED BANDANA

We believe in thaa part of Belva's plat form published in the DEMOCRAT referring to education, the lack of which is shown by her grammar. But the demand that every husband buy Shoninger Piano or Organ for his wife entirely destroys her chances. Oh, Belva. would you destroy family ties throughout our land No. The Red Bandana will be used for the next four years in dustinG such Fine Pianos as Mason & Hamlin, Boardman & Gray, Baus, and Wilcox & White and New Eng land Organs. A company with business stability is preferred to the hireling of a manufacturer who sells Pianos for new ones and few months later claims they were manufactured long years ago.
