AN EARNEST PROTEST
Made Against Sunday Work on Sewer
 Rui1dinD

Made Against Sunday Work on Sewer
 Building.
 Many of the residents of the western part of the city were much annoyed yes terday by Sunday work conducted on the boulevard sewer, between Derby avenue and Chapel street. Work on the sewer was being conducted yesterday the same as usnal, much to the regret of many citi- zens and their families. Said prominent gentleman last evening: "The people of that section feel indignant. There was a large force of men at work and the engine was going and the steam whistle blown. It is the principle at stake of which we speak, and if one piece of work can thus be done on the Sabbath then the door Is left open for constant violation of the sanctity of the Sabbath day. We, in this country, are tending too much to- wards lsxity of observance of the Sab bath. It should be day of rest as much ss possible for man and beast. This rule works to the benefit of the race mentally, morally and physically. The only work permissible to be done on the Sabbath should be works of imperative necessity. The contractors who are building this sewer urged in their defence that the time limit of their cor tract for completing the sewer to Chapel street was ominously near, but they should have foreseen this and pushed their work along beforehand accordingly. I speak for many people when utter protest against Sunday work and desecration of the Lords day in our good old city.

 Shortly after 9 o'clock yesterday after CT Italian, whose name could not be learned but who is known as No. 15. Ali the Ital- fans in Bethany are employed by 0. w. Blakeslee & Son, who are constructing a new dam there for the New Haven Water company. In many instances 1t is impos- sible to ascertain the names of the Italians and in consequence each is given num- Der.

Words led l to blows and finally 8 general ecufas en sued. No. 15 and Gelsntino clinched snG for few moments fierce fight was wagec between the two contestants. Finally | when it became apparent that the Italian knawn as No. 15 was getting shade th, worst of the melee another Italian stepped l in behind Gelentino and drawing knif. l plunged 1t up to the hilt in his back.

DEMOCRACY vs. SOCIALISM.

Which Shall the Toflers Supportf-
 MT. Warren, the Champion of Dem-
 ocracy, Reviews Some of the De-
 mands of the Socialistic Labor Farty
 MT. Glynn Sets Forth the Frinel-
 ples of the Socialistic Labor Party.
 A large crowd of people assembled at Loomis Academy hall yesterday morning | to witness battle between two champion l kniahts of democracy and socialism. MT. Willard Warren of this city appeared to defend the cause of democracy, while MT. Henry Glynn of New York spoke for the socialistic labor party. Mir. Glynn was the first speaker and ID a speech 30 minutes in length he Set forth some of the principles of the socialistio la bor party. He said that circumstances formed the man, and that it was the aim of the socialistio labor party to improve the | condition of the laboring people. The so' cislistic party, he maintained, is the party of liberty, progress and education-un- selfish in its ends and high in its motives. 1 MT. Warren then arose and spoke for l democracy. In his speech he said that since the days of Jefferson the democrats had believed the least governed people were the best governed people, whiie the more government there is, the better 1t is for the people. He then reviewed some of l the ssdemands" of the socislistic party, l which were as follows:
 l 1. Reduction of the hours of labor. In
 speaking of this be said there had been considerable of that lately in New Haven
 end he guessed the people had had great
 plenty of it. He liked to see labor produce l as much wealth ss it could and be well paid for it.
 g. National and municipal ownership of
 all kinds of transportation and communl-
 cation.
 8. The inalienable ownership of public
 land rights.
 4 The issuing of money by the govern l ment alone.
 D. Incorporation of trades unions. l 6. Scientific management by congress of
 forests and highways.
 7. A professed income tax and tax on
 inheritance.
 8. Compulsory education of children un-
 der fourteen years of age.
 o. Repeal of all pauper, tramp and con-
 spiracy laws.
 MT. Warren made few remarks on each
 of the preceding demands" and was fol
 lowed in a 15-minute speech by Mir. Glynn, | own all the articles and instruments of
 labor collectively. Every man should
 earn his bread by the sweat of his own
 brow, and the intellectually inclined man
 should not be allowed to sit down and read
 and let some other man work for him. |, Mir. Warren then eald that such princi pies as his opponent had advanced meant
 the rule of an oligarchy. The Anglo. Saxor people had always believed in limiting power and force, while unlimited powe, t and force had always been behind the Ger
 man people. The American people were essentially Anglo-Ssxop, and the Ameri , cen government was started with the power limited.
 In speaking of the leveling policy of thu soclslistic labor party he said that if yor } took away from man the desire of com peting with his fellow men, you rob hin of all desire of living. MT. Glynn then spoke few words snt l the meeting closed.
