S.ugatuck Board of RrIisf.
Editor of the DEMOCRAT:


 Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 The republican nominations in this case contain the name of one person whose principles emi. ently disqualify him for the office. He advocates distinctions and that in every case against the wage worker. If the man ttat has nothing but what he gets by the daily labor. (the prin- ciple that is in practice in Naugatuck Is based upon forty per cent of the valua- tion; that is si0O tax upon every Sl.OOO of house and lot, ! this principle should be carried out with even justice. Now what do we find in the gentleman referred to, William Ward. The writer has heard him argue that the man with n SlO.0O0 house or lot should not be taxed in the same pro- portion as the man with lot and house worth s1 900. if you do you may send the big men away from town. Inference is that to keep these important gentlemen among us we must discriminate in thelr favor at the expense of the smaller fry. There are very many such cases of oppres- sion in the town. Another case against this gentleman's principles: A working | man either from want of knowledge or self importance enters his house and lot at cost in n particular neighborkood. This gentleman has said in the hearing of the writer that others in the same locality should be brought up to that one standard | instead of the one corrected. The polls is the place to correct these wrong doings by the republican board of relief. Fellow voters send this gentleman home to chew the cud of remorse for wrong doings to his fellow taxpayers. and put in the demo cratic men who have always fellow feeling | in these c matters.
 Yours resI ectfully, D. PRATT. | Union City.

An English sculptor has been interview
ed about women's arms and admits much
difficulty in securing perfect model. He
sums up the points of such an arm as fol-
lows: 1.-THE arm should be fully two heads
long from its insertion at the shoulder to
the wrist, the upper arm large and round,
dimpled elbow, the forearm not too fiat,
the whole diminishing in long, graceful
curves to a well rounded wrist. A wom-
an 8 arm is rounder and tapers more grace
fully than mans, owing to the deltoid
muscle coming lover down the arm, and
all the muscles having longer and more
gradual curve"
And he says further that women should
know how to move their arms.
"There is as much power of expression
in the arm as in the face. Sarah Bern
hardt is only one of many instances, espe-
cially among the French, Italian and Span
ish women. Her arms are certainly not
things of beauty on account of their shape,
but they are decidedly so in their move
ments. She knows how to manage them,
and the result is charming"

Agricultural Notes.

Have a small reserve garden where
plants can be grown for succession, to
be transplanted when required to re-
place such as are out of bloom or have
been lost by accident.
A single planting of peas in the gar
den is only an aggravation. They are
gone before you know it. Plant every
week from the time the ground is dry
enough to work.
Every time big armful of cornstalks
is turned into the bedding to waste, by
just so much are the profits decreased.
Every farmer should have a machine for
cutting up stalks, butts and all.
Almost every week adds to the evil
dence that the silo is about the best hay
making machine yet introduced. 1t in
creases the farms supply of manure,
and, what is more, 80 increases the stock
food that all the timothy hay may be sold.
The increasing prevalence of fungous
diseases makes it more than ever neces-
sary to rotate crops so that the potatoes
shall not be grown successfully ON the
same land.
