LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
The American Rebuked For Its un-
 American Utterances. To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT:

The American Rebuked For It's uu-
 American Utterances.
 To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 The editorial in last evenings American regarding the nominations of the demo- CT ratic school convention is manifestly un- fair. While condemning the democrats for nominating men of one religious belief and denouncing the ticket as an insult to the good sense and a threat to the peace of the community the Amerisan entirely loses sight of the fact that the republican nominees are always Protestants. The ticket made up last night was no exception to the rule. Would anyone object to any of the republican candidates on the ground that he is a Protestant Surely not. He would be a narrow minded bigot who would do so. Then why is the democratic ticket attacked? The candidates were nominated in regular form and all are ad- mitted to be men of integrity and ability. Republican members of the board are will ing to concede that Very Rev LA. Mulcahy has made the most efficient chairman the board of education has had in many years. Indeed, it is admitted that under his con- servative mar az sment the standard Of the | schools has been raised so that even the | Examiner, a bitter enemy of what it calls Oath olic control, admits that the Waterbury public schools are models. This talk of control is poppycock. It is raised by men of narrow gauge. A stranger attend ing meeting of the board of education or district committee would not know from their actions whether any or all of the members were Catholic or Protestant. | The Protestant teachers will also bear tes- timony to this fact. Ia fact the greatest care has always been taken by the Catho- llc members to keep questions of religion out of their ections. Again, suppose tho four Catholic candidates are elected, the other side will still have minority repre- sentation. But this is of small importance. The main question is: Are Catholic citi zens incapable of acting upon the school boards? claim that they are not. ant the record of the present board is sufh- cient refutation of the Americans charge The article Tn the American. not th' action of the democratic convention, is ar insult, and will only stimulate the demo crats 10 put forth still greater afforts te win. Let me refer the editor of the Amer ican to that section of the constitution O the United States concerning the right and duties of citizens. No mans religion can bar him from holding office in thii free lard. In conclusion it may be apro pos to say that Mir Chase. Mir Frisbie Judge Phelan and other Americans have on different occasions been invited to run on the democratic school ticket and de clined.

A Suggestion From MT Henderson. Edifc- of tha nrNtorpar

A Suggestion From MT Henderson.
 Editr- of the DEMOCRAT:
 Inasmuch as the complexion of the ticket that has been placed in nomination by the democratic school convention doubtless undesignedly, and only to be at ,dbuted to the imperfections of the meth cd of nominating aroused widespread indignation which threatens to disturb that harmony of the different clements in our community for which Waterbury has become noted. I wish to say that it would be a noble act on the part of some of the gentlemen whose names are on that ticket for them to decline to serve. An opportu- nifty would then ba given to have the blunder corrected. I have the highest re- spect for all those gentlemen. and do not question their fitness in the least, but they ought not to fill all the places on the ticket to the exclusion of other elements that have an equal interest in the schools.
