Waterbury evening Democrat., 1892-11-05

the on-the-fence vote, the order has
been given by the republican leaders to
claim every state hitherto considered to
be in doubt, and it is being done by the
subordinates with a hurrah that is SO
palpably artificial that it fools nobody.
That is pure bluff.
The so-called peoples party has sold
out bag and baggage to the republicans.
The authority for the statement that the
peoples party electors will, If elected,
cast their votes for Harrison, is the
editor of the national organ of that
party, printed at Washington.
That looks like Doodle.
Finally, the republican managers
have adopted the bulldozing and in
timidating methods of 1884. In New
York and the south they are working
the United States marshal and super
visor scheme for all it is worth. Here
in Connecticut the plan is to intimidate
workingmen by threatening dire conse-
quences in the event of Cleveland's
election. The old scare has been re-
vived and, to the shame of Waterbury
manufacturers be it said, the first note
of the calamity dirge was sounded in
this city.
Republican manufacturers have been
appealed to and a desperate attempt is
being made to "bunco" the working
men, as Congressman Vance very aptly
put it the other night. Already two
Waterbury capitalists have sung their
little song and in all probability more
will follow. The cry is raised that the
industries of the state will be ruined if
Grover Cleveland is elected. So it was
1884. An intimidating circular, signed
by many of our Waterbury manufac-
turers, was scattered broadcast by the
republican town committee on the eve
of election, and doubtless many demo-
Gratis in trepidation and fear voted
against their honest convictions.
What was the result?
Grover Cleveland was elected and
Waterbury never before enjoyed such
prosperity as followed his inauguration.
The disaster which the republican man.
ufacturers declared would result if
Cleveland was elected did not come to
pass and in 1888 Waterbury's democratic
majority was increased nearly three
hundred over the vote of 1884.
AS yet none of the prophets have eX-
planned in detail how a reduction of the
tariff is going to NAL Ike paupers of one
half of the people of Waterbury, as
predicted. To attempt to do so would
show that their claim is without a
shadow of foundation. For this reason
they wait until the eve of election be-
fore forw arding their contribution to
the republican literary bureau, and then
only cry "wolf."
Notwithstanding a full knowledge of
all these desperate attempts on the part
of the republican managers to retain
control of the government, which they
bought four years ago with money
squeezed out of the protected barons by
sanity john Wanamaker and other
shining lights of the party which talks
morality while it engages in the most
audacious robbery, democratic conf
dence is as firm and solid as stone
wall. Why? Because it is founded on
the idea that the great mass of Ameri-
can voters are too honest to be bribed to
vote a ticket which their conscience
| condemns, and too sensible and
courageous to be wheedled or bulldozed
| can candidate.
