Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-23
A CHANGE FOR AMERICANS.

The geographical position of the United States, the enterprise of our people and the natural advantages we possess would entitle us to a considerable share of the South American trade were we not ham pered and impeded in our efforts to secure it by an absurd system of high taxes. It is this system that has destroyed our mer- chant marine and robbed us of vast trade that lies at our very doors. The taxes that are imposed on our raw materials put burden on our manufacturers that practically prohibits competition. We cannot lay down our goods in the South American markets at prices to permit com petition with the manufacturers of Eng land, who have their raw materials free, and are so debarred from the markets.
 The advantage that we would derive from the democratic policy of free trade ill raw materials of manufacture is point ed out very clearly in private letter to the New York Times by MT c. s. Cary of Washington. A few years ago, says Mir Cary, the government made a treaty wish the Island of Hawaii, for the expor- tation and importation of free raw materi- als. The result has been that forty-nine sailing vessels and fourteen steamships have been built by American capital and American labor and are now sailing ex- clusively In connection with the trade of that island under the American flag They furnish employment to large number of Americans and are supplied from this country at an average expense to each vessel of about $15, ,000 per annum. The commerce which has been brought into this country ill consequence of this treaty is enormous. In fact, the above vessels constitute in number more than all other vessels sailing under the American flag en- gagged in commerce with foreign ports. This furnishes a significant justification of democratic policy. Suppose it were ap- piled to South America, an immense mer- chant marine would at once spring into ex- istence, and of the $500, 100000 now taken from South America into England much the larger portion would soon be added to the wealth of American commerce.
 These are matters for the voters to think of when they cast their ballots next month. The democratic policy of free trade in raw materials, with reasonable protection on manufactured goods, is the best for the country, best for the manufacturers and best for the workingmen. It should be accepted by the people.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-23

the republican ticket. In Manning, Bow man & Co.'S, however, and in other factories run by democrats the employees are invited to "decide the question as they think best" There is no hint, insfnuation or suggestion of instruction from the men in control. What contrast
 We believe that manly action like that of Manning, Bowman & Co will find ready echo in the heart of every democrat. We believe, too, it will win the respect of republican workmen and will gain many votes for party that stands for independ; ence of political thought and action unham pered by legalized intimidation or illegal coercion It is the true American spirit, the spirit that animated the framers of the constitution, the spirit that sustained the American people in the conflicts of wal and made our country the ideally free anc independent nation of the world.
 MT Manning's treatment of his employees is truly democratic. We commend it tc those republican employers who have de based their manhood and insulted theil workmen by the use of the political pay envelopes of Matt Quay.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-23
FOR REPRESENTATIVES

The gentlemen placed in nomination for representatives by the democratic conven- tion last evening are exceptionally capable and worthy to represent the interests of the city in the legislative body at Hart ford. MT O'Neill, ir, is a we'll equipped practitioner at the Connecticut bar, and has a reputation for legal acumen, direct and graceful expression and insinuating powers of achievement second to none in his profession. By education, experience and tastes he is fitted for a legislators work, and the town of Waterbury may congratulate itself that it will have the services at Hartford of man so thorough ly competent and experienced as Mir O'Neill. Should questions of constitution al reform come before the assembly-and the democratic state platform is committed in this direction-Mr O'Neill will be found an exceedingly valuable member for the democratic party to have around. His legal knowledge and powers of debate will be found extremely useful, and we can easily predict for MT O'Neill a leading position among his associates of the house. In MT H. L. Welch of Waterville MT | O'Neill will find a worthy and most eff cient coadjutor. A successful manufac turer, a man of force and character, prac tical by nature and rounded by an ex- perience that fits him to comprehend thor oughly the best interests of our city and to appreciate the best methods of pro- noting those interests, MT Welch may be expected to cope successfully with ques- tions of legislation at Hartford. No better man could be secured to run on the ticket with MT O'Neill.
 Unity of effort and harmony of action will elect the candidates nominated last evening. They are efficient, capable men, thoroughly equipped for the duties of leg islators, profoundly versed in the needs of the city, and should be chosen by rous- ing majority on the 9th of November
 Waterbury should and will have dem ocratic representatives in the next legis- lature
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-23

COLONEL HIGGINsoN, in accepting the democratic nomination for congress in the Fifth district of Massachusetts, vim dicates the position of the mugwump ele- ment in our politics. Colonel Higginson says the mere fact that the republican party has been compelled to bring forward measure of pretended tariff reform of its own is a confession of the courage and statesmanship of MT Cleveland; that the democratic party is entitled to the credit of having nominated and elected good men, and that, to secure good men to administer public affairs being the aim of good citizens, he accepts with thanks and without hesi- tation the nomination of the democracy of the district The record made by President Cleveland has strengthened the confidence felt in him by independent voters, and the cause of tariff reform which he has courageously brought before the people will gain many votes for him that were not given four years ago. There will be big independent vote for Cleveland this year.
