made n speech tradueing the populists after his party received their aid, The democrats condemned the income tax when We republicans passed 1t during the war 10 pay the soldiers In the field. This tax will be put down by the manufacturer, or any corporate company as any other expense to be met In the uscual way. Now l ask you who will pay lt? Will not the expense ultimately come out of the working men? l think you will agree with me that 1t will. No firm can pay dividend until the per cent. tax Is first paid
 Cleveland recently said In letter to an Alabama senator that wedge had been inserted into the tarin ques- ton. and that they meant to go on with the tariff war until every veStige of the old protective tarifr had disap- peared.
 Now. l want to impress on you that when the price of labor goes down. the price of your house and lot VIII go down. It cannot be otherwise.
 When the sugar bill passed MT, Will son said that $40, 0,000, 900 had passed Into the hands of the Sugar trust. You VIII get three or four pounds of sugar less for the dollar than you did before.
 "R. c. Dun X Co.,, who cannot afford to lie, say that s2000, 100000 has been taken from the pockets of the work ingman In this financial depression. Now, when you take from one man. you take from another. If you don't sell, you can't buy. AS soon as the power to earn Is regained you VIII nave the power to buy again"
 Attorney J. P. Goodhart was the next speaker. He said in part: Tt makes little difference whether MT Collin Is placed in the governors chair at Hart ford playing the flute, as he is charged with doing, or Mir. Cady playing the Tyre, as the democrats have so long done but it is rather a question of whether the policy that gives us bread and butter is going to continue or not. Now, it was my good fortune to save enough from that honorable profession, the law, to take little trip OH the other side last summer and I saw the condi- tion of the working people in Germany France and England. And just wish that could take thousand good, sen sible democrats over there and have | them see what I saw, and . feel confi- dent in saying that they would come back converted to ideas truly Amer | ican.
 Now I am going to say something about the democratic nominee, the Hon Mr. Pigott. I never knew him to dc anything successfully. As a lawyer never knew him to win a celebrated case. He didn't do anything at Hart. ford. He never did anything at New Haven except to show up a little before some little two-cent local election anf pat someone on the back. I heard MT | Sperry say he made J speech agains
 the populists. I never heard of that speech before. I never had heard hIn accused of doing anything.
 AS opposed to this man we have MT | Sperry, man who has brilliant rec ord as an efficient public servant When you vote for Mr. Sperry you vote for bread and butter. It is question Of putting a man in congress who believes in the theory of bread aud butter or one who does not"
 Councilman Joseph P. Peaker then made an interesting spaech. He Was followed by Alderman A. Maxcy Hitler who made rousing republican speech which was listened to with great inter- est by all present.
 The meeting then adjourned.
