Waterbury Democrat., 1901-11-23

Editor Wells of the Hartford Post, formerly of this city, and republican of the dyed-in-the-woo kind, doesn't take any stock in the talk of throwing out the democratic ballots east in the third ward at the last city election. Here is what he has to say on the question: "0n the democratic ballots which were cast in the third ward at the recent municipal election in Wa terbury was printed the word For That's not allowed by law, and the typographical blunder clearly inyali- dates the ballots. If the republican, candidates, who failed of election, cared to make a contest the ballots would doubtless be thrown out and the democratic nominees, who were de clared victorious, would be thrown out with them. We don't admire the con- duct of the voters of Waterbury in electing a democratic city ticket, but that's a habit which they have and which must be charged up to q mis- taken judgment or sinful heart Ney- ertheless, we don't for a moment as- sume, suppose or think that the repub- licans would take advantage of this legal technicality The For ballots were cast in good faith, and there's no doubt about the intention of the voters. The illegality represents no fraud either ill the casting or the counting of the ballots, and it involves nothing more than a blunder which dis
 credits the alertness and intelligence of the party leaders. To throw out the ballots. however technically illegal they may be, would be to thwart the will of the people, to defeat the pur- pose of the electors and to do a moral wrong to the man behind the vote. The republicans of Waterbury, though not averse to the honors and emolu- ments of office, wouldn't seriously think of climbing into power over a quibble. They aren't built tliat way. Then there's the gruesome grief that
 Mayor Kilduff would feel if he were showed off the gangplank To iniict such suffering unnecessarily, especial ly at q time when there's considerable sentiment against vivisection, would be an offense against the humanitarian tendencies of the next century after the nineteenth"

The fact that a man has done good work on a con- mittee in the past is no guarantee that he will be put on the same at the next session. Still, as a general thing, the old committees lines are observed, eA cept in the cases of nen who have op- structed the decrees of the party. For instance, MT Babcock of Wiscons'n' who is a member of the ways and means and who introduced his widely discussed tariff reform bill at the close of the last session. may be, and indeed will be, displaced from this important assignment if the American Protective Tariff association has it's way There is always tremendous pressure rom old membe CTS who have served on less important committees to be trans ferred to more important ones in which vacancies have occurred. This time there are some eighty odd new mem bers. nearly one-fourth of the entire membership of the house, whose pc culiar adaptability to certain lines of work must be studied and their as signments planned accordingly tal- though his identity may be well knownl, and it is evident that the three weeks that interevene between the assembling and the Christmas ad- journment are none too long for the task.

 NEW YORK, Nov. 23-R. c. nun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
 Careful search discloses few unfa- vorable factors in the iron and steel situation. Probably the least satisfac- tory conditions are found at plate mills, which report an uneven distribution of Crders. 4 few large concerns appear 10 secure the bulk of new business, but heavy orders for cars will largely ex- pand the buying, while the new combi- nation will put this class of mills on q stronger basis. In rails there is no ap- parent limit to the orders placed, though some mills are unable to guar antee delivery within year. One Pittsburg report places the years out put of structural material at 100000 tons. After six months of more or less interruption all machine shops and kindred plants at San Francisco have fully. resumed, and it is certain that the greatest force on record is now en- gagged in the various departments of iron and steel making.

POSSESS AN HONEST EYE.


 A business man said that he once devoted half day to hiring a man whom he needed in his office. In answer to his advertisement, a great may applicants called. He rejected the first because he would not look him tp the eye. 'sThe second man." said the merchant. twas aluned with double barleled recommendation from his pas tor, with testimonials as to his business ability and good character: but, though he looked me in the eye, saw that we could never hope to get along well to- gether and so I dismissed him. The third interested me. the moment he stepped inside the door. He was poor ly dressed, and, though his clothes were whole. they were at least two sizes too small. It was evident that his attire troubled him not the least, for he held his head high. and, as he approached my desk, looked me square ly in the eve. He said that he had no recommendation. that he had no busi- ness experience, but that he was will ing tc do his best to please me. Tn an instant, it dawned upon me that before me was the man 1 was looking for. He had nothing to recommend him save an honest, bright eye and a pleasant face; but that was sufficient. l engaged him on the spot.
 Since then I have seen fit to ad- vance him over a man who had been with me three years. The latter gruln- bled, but there was reason for my moye-the new man had proved him self worthy of promotion"
 Instances might be indefinitely mul- tiplied of the value of an honest eye. That wonderful window of the soul, the eye, is a sure index to character. If you have it not, cultivate bright honest straightforward look. It will more than repay your effort. Look up and fearlessly meet the eyes of those with whom you converse. Many a choice position has been lost through an indifferent, fiinching eye; and many coveted position has been won through fearless, honest eye. That kind of eve is better than hundred recommendations Success.

Mike Scheeier Taken in Charge Be-
cause of Mental Condition.
Sheriff Shoemaker was called to the
Miller billiard hall on North Center
street Friday night to take charge Of
Mike Scheeler, who had taken posses
sion of the place and had frightened
most of the patrons and caused them to
seek safety in the street. Mr.. Scheel-
er's actions indicated that his mind had
become unbalanced. Sheriff Shoemaker,
assisted by officer Hurd, succeeded in
getting Scheeler to the Jail with little
trouble, but the mans condition was
serious and he did not sleep at all dur
ing the night.
Mr.. Scheeler was engaged in the liv-
cry business with his brother c. j..
Scheeler, for a number OF years, and
was devoted to his business interests. A
few years ego he sold his interests to
his brother and of late has been in the
Dakotas engaged in buying stock. He
lost his money in these speculations and
three weeks ago returned to MARSHALL
town. Mr.. c. ]. Scheeler attributes his
brothers mental condition to his finan-
cial troubles.
Thinking that perhaps Mr. Scheeler's
affection was only temporary it was de-
cidad to postpone bringing him before
the commission for few days to await
