Coming Out Fer German.

The Dudley brothers, Of the East
ern Shore. will play an important
partin the German campaign. Hi
ram G. Dudley, a business man of
Baltimore, is likely to take the
place of /. Freeman Rasin as the
active chief Of the German forces
in Baltimore. Hundreds of Dem
ocrats in this city who in 1895 were
against German are now with him,
but many are not $50 friendly to
Rasin. They want new leader in
the city, and Dudley appears. to be
acceptable.
Because German wishes to win is
his reason for the proposed change
in leadership. Mayor Hayes is OPP
posed to Rasin domination, but
German intends to bring the Mayor
into line, as the latter's support is
needed for the City Hall contribu-
ton to the campaign fund. The
city administration failed TO con-
tribute to the Democratic Campaign
Committee either last fall or this
spring, and the $40, 900 or $50, 200
to be derived from the assessment
of municipal officials lie needed.
Dudley has several strings to his
political bow. In addition to his
prominence in city politics, he has
two brothers, one, w. @. Dudley,
in Talbot. and the other, Z. L.
Dudley, in Queen Anne's County,
Of the Eastern Shore, who will be
candidates for the Legislature, the
first-named for Senator. Thus the
Dudleys will WELD an unusual po.
litical power in the selection of the
next United States Senator should
the two be successful in their can.
didacy for the Legislature, and
their brother Hiram will WELD con-
troll over the city delegation
German has not yet made any
public statement of his candidacy
for Senator, but the public takes it
for granted. He will control the
State conventions and, with few
exceptions, the county conventions.
At q conference of German, Chair
man Vandiver, Hiram Dudley, Free
man Rasin and other leaders last
week, the candidates Of the Legis-
lature we're discussed. German
scrutinized the lists, and wherever
there were contests int;mated bis
choice of the candidate.
A State leader says the plan Of
the State Executive Committee is
to have the convention unanimous
ly pledge the members to be elected
to the General Assembly to vote for
German for United States Senator.
This will make German the issue
of the campaign.
This course was followed in 1891
and the General Assembly chosen
that year, on that issue, was over
Whelmingly Democratic. Demo
Gratis from the county declare that |
the precedent of 1891 should be |
adopted this year that German
should be nominated as then. by q |
Of the State Convention,
aud the fight for the General As
should be made on that line. |
Many Republicans are urging the |
party leaders to announce their |
choice and meet German on his own |
field. 1t is not so easy to do. The
Democrats will throw out the battle |
cry:
"Mudd against Gorman-which |
will yon have"
Few Republican leaders believe
Congressman Mudd could be elected
to the Senate. Baltimore Cores

FIRST LESSON ON A BICYCLE.
Doing Twisters at O'clock This
 Morning-Wheel is Now for Sale.

Can Henry ride? Well that is hard to tell, but the rise and fall of one of Waterbury's sporting men was wit messed this morning on East Main street. Who is Henry? Why anyone down in the New England Watch fac tory can tell you who Henry is. His ambition was to learn to ride wheel and he struck a bargain ill one for SlO. He sttrtei out this morning for uis first lesson and at , o'clock he was do- ing twisters ill front of the Immaeu- late Conception church. The wheel seemed to be possessed of some evil spirit for Henry took an ascent into the air of some ten feet. He tried to remain there to hide himself from the crowds of church goers, but he came down and he came down hard. His dignity was ruftied and so were several other things about his person and that wheel is now for sale at half price and Henry says he will speculate in
 Northern Pacific before he ever at tempts to ride bucking wheel again.

Consolidation

Of our city and town has been decided upon, and after January 1, 1902, we will be one big city, all by our lone some. Say, Senator Kennedy must have felt lonesome when he found he was the only one in the senate who dare vote conScientiouSly and for the people who sent him there, but didn't he slash those fellows right and left who had the impudence to say harsh things about Waterbury citizens, and who misrepresented us in the manner they did. Why, outsiders would have thought we were pack of numbskulls if our courageous senator didn't get up and tell them a thing or two. Say, If We only had whole lot of fellows like him sent up to Hartford every year there wculdbe no labor troubles, no strikes. nothing but harmony be- tween capital and labor, because the laws would govern both. Harmony is a great thing in a community, but har- mOD3 in each family is also necessary, 9Sfd you have never yet seen real Family -.jar' spring up when good tea and coffee Is served at each collation..

 On Monday last Marshal Edmonds had 9 general round up with some In dians down near the foundry They were armed with all kinds of weapons, from pick handles to double action re- voIvers and resisted arrest so vigorous ly that it looked for a time as though they would get the marshal over a bar rel. However, Joe was too much for them and escorted two squaws and a buck to the city jail
 We notice that some of the boys who are dog fanciers have lively time in rustling scraps to appease their appe- tites. Perhaps it would be good plan i to keep two dogs, as they can be relied upon to furnish scraps themselves; for, ! is it not written, where two or more dogs are gathered together, there shall i scraps be also.
