 As stated. in these columns a few days since. the Liaenanians propose to take a hand in stateand local politics this fall. A prominent member of this club told a reporter the other day that the Polish people of Waterbury would control over 400 votes in Waterbury this year. How much truth is in the statement it would be difficult to tell, but it is certain that there Is large number of those people resident in Waterbury and which ever side they ally themselves with is sure of a good backing. The club has rooms at 27 wes, Porter street. The officers are: President. Charles Wurban. vice president. Joseph Jankosky; secretary. J. Moksinowy. If the janitors of the schools in the other wards have devoted as much tune tc the work of cleaning the school rooms dur. ing vacation as those in charge of the school building in this section have done teachers and pupils will be treated to an agreeable surprise on their return to their respective rooms next week. Janitol John Mccarthy of the Porter street school has given the place a thorough cleaning from cellar to attic and the con- dition of the different rooms and the school grounds give ample proof of much labor on the part of the man in charge At the Bank street school Janitor William Ramon has the place in excellent condi- tion. Every room. desk. clothes closet and in fact the whole interior shows tho work of skillful hands. The lawn has been the talk of the town all summer ! We don't remember missing inc iAnitor from around it for one day since vacation It has been said and very truthfulIy, too that n sparrow could not pick on the build ing or in the yard without Mr Bannon': knowledge.
