 CALL TO sRMs
 Editcr of the DEMOCRAT:
 The insult to Waterbury democrats in this mornings Republican shows that democrats are being held pretty cheap this year by the republican leaders; too cheap as we ought to prove to them at the ratih- cation meeting to- morrow evening. That | the hard times were caused by republican | extravagance and blundering. the taunts of | the republicans of the slowness of the democratic senate in repeating republican measures that emptied the Unites States treasury. flooded the country with cheap labor and made the 30,000,00O of our farming population so poor as to be unable | to buy the products of our factories, clearly prove that the late James G. Blaine told | the truth when he said of the Mckinley | bill that it would never take bushel of | wheat out of the country. The farmers | know it now and so do we. Are we demo- crats going to desert the brave men and wise leaders who have brought us out of the mire that the republicans plunged us into now that prosperity is about to reward their efforts. now that the long night has passed and the dawn is breaking? Answer No, democrats of Waterbury. with shout that will make its echo reach the ears of every doubting Thomas and weak -kneed democrat in the land and rouse him to his duty.

 ITALIAN DEMOCRATIC CLUB.
 The Italian Democratic club held its first meeting last night and decided to prosecute a vigorous campaign among their countrymen in Waterbury and surround ing towns. It seems that at the meeting of republican Italians held last Sunday one of the speakers told his hearers that most of those who vote the democratic ticket are Irishmen and that this class of people is now and always has been bitterly opposed to the Italian laborer. The new club denies the truth of this statement and declares that those who are trying to foment discord among the Italians of Wa terbury are not acting for the interests of the people whom they claim to represent and should be regarded as a dangerous ele- ment in the community. The democratic committee are out to do battle for the whole ticket and wish to state that they are acting solely tor what they believe to be the best interest of all the people of this town and state. They will meet their own expenses and want no mans money. The committee is as follows: Dominica Trotta. Frank Marinelli. Tony Bochicchio. Rocco Piciulo, John Sirica, Moschino Cortese. Pasquale Colongelo. Nicola Spadola. Oar. mine M-ietti. VincenZo Orlando, Tony Salinardo, yiti Errico.
