 Yesterday the Evening Democrat printed exclusively the news of q cut in the wages of the employees of the NJ. Heminway x Sons silk factory. In connection with this article was statement regarding the election of Representative Heminway. The Dem ocrat would like to explain itself fur .ther. AS a paper devoted to the in- terests of the laboring classes, the Democrat could not understand why | Homer Heminway, a capitalist, could believe it good policy to cut down the pennies of the very men who gave their votes for the election of a rela- 1 tive of his, Attorney Heminway, of this town, as their representative. In l this matter of wage reduction, Rep resentative Heminway does not fig ure, because he is powerleSS to raise q | finger for the workingman in this in- stance, but it goes to show the grati 1 tude of Homer Heminway in appre- citation of the honor bestowed by the people upon a near kinsman. Repre- sentative Heminway is a man of hon. or, a gentleman, well liked and respected by the entire community.
