 Politics are beginning to boom In } this section. The whisperings and street corner confabs are becoming louder and voters are, beginning to place themselves under the standards Of their favorites. Lieutenants are busy at work. One meets them every where. Their praises of their favor ties cannot be too great. It is not tha position of alderman that is the sub- ject of discussion but it is the more prominent position of mayor of the city of Waterbury. Dame Rumor has it that there will be six candidates aud from what one hears each candidate has large following and their bench- men are hard at work gaining for them new recruits. The man, in whose in- terests active work is being done are Mayor E G. Kilduff, Dr Hayes, ]. J. Mcdonald, Tax Collector Thoms, Cap tain D. D. Fitzpatrick and Selectman Doran. Many warm discussion hHs been already indulged in by people in this section as to the relative merits of each candidate but as yet only the smoke of the fire can be seen. Soon the flames will appear.
