ECONOMIC LEAGrE.
Meeting Will Be Held Soon to Per
 feet an Organization. --


 waterbury is to have an Economic league which will probably be formed within the next three weeks. Repre- sentatiyes from every ward in the city held a preliminary session last night and discussed plans for the for nation of the league. It was decid- ed that there would be no hasty ac- tion and that the league would be composed of the strongest men in the city, irrespective of party, who want ed to see labor interests advanced It will not really be political party, but just what it's name indicates, an economic league. Another meeting is to be called within two weeks and this meeting will be public one and all the labor organizations of the city will be asked to attend and listen to speakers who will be brought here for the purpose of explaining the pur- poses of the league. These speakers will be the best obtainable and at the conclusion of the meeting the league will begin it's work. 1t is the inten- .tion to put ticket in the field for the coming elections in this city and in all probability only members of the league will be selected to run for of fee. Those who are advancing the league propose to make no mistakes in the orga.sization of the same and will avoid as much as possible all po- htical parties. One of the organizers said to-day that the league was just as certain of being started and that a ticket would be put i'll the field as any thing that has ever taken place.
