What Editor Troup Hears About
 Thayer- Making New Voters.
 Alexander Troup having waved hside the overtures of the Bryan men and Economic leaguers of the New Ha- ven section to head an independent state ticket, they have since been cast ng around to find an available candi- date Tor governor. Among others they approached the Hon Charles F. Thayer Of Norwich, who. it is reported, said that he would s'take the matter under consideration" The Bryan committee expect to hear from MT Thayer by let ter when they hold their meeting to- morrow to consider the outlook for a third ticket. It is reported that who ever waited on MT Thayer first offered him place on the independent ticket as candidate for attorney general. This had been offered him at the time of the democratic state convention. He would not consider the offer then and was even less inclined to consider such an ofrer coming at this time. That MT Thayer will give any support to the independent ticket proposition is doubt ed by his political friends. especially in view of the fact that when the result of the ballot for governor was an nounced in the democratic state con- yention in favor of MT Cary, Dr Cassi- dy of Norwich who had placed MT Thayer in nomination, promised the full support of that gentleman to MT Cary. It is to be presumed that Dr Cassidy knew what he was doing Hartford Times.
 Charles Ufert of New York, who has just spent three weeks in the mining districts of Pennsylvania. will address an open air meeting at the junction of Bank street and Washington avenue this evening at 8 O'Clock. He will talk on the condition of the miners and the pending settlement of the strike. .. some surprise has been expressed that Mayor MulYihin of Bridgeport, who has been prominent candidate, was not In the ballot for sheriff at the qemocratic convention, Tuesday, at DanDury. The Bridgeport papers re- port that before going into the con- Nentlon the delegates from that city 4eid caucus. at which Mayor Mulvi. nll announced his withdrawal from lne race. He said he wanted harmony ana believed that could best be accom- pllshed by nominating ex-Sheriff Roh- ert F. Clarkson of Stratford. "
 Why Workingmen Should Vote for socialism Instead of a System That ferpetuates Strikes and War Re- tween So-Called Labor and CapitaI SIasses was the subject of W. E. Nhtes s address at an open air meet ing at Blakeslee square last night, It was terrible arraignment of the re- publican party and must have set those who heard it to thinking of the sreat need of a change. MT White must nave made some converts to de nlocracy. His reasoning wasplain and lhe man who listened to him and votes the republican ticket this falI or lends a hand to any of the side shows that tend to aid that party, must have little interest in the welfare of the country. -#a.@
 The board of registration will be in session in the city court room to-mor- row from o'clock in the forenoon until i'll the evening for the purpose Of making voters. Applicants whose names are on the stto be made'' list should endeavor to call there to-mor- AOW. I#eOple Ee1upIOyGQ III IacLOfloS or stores will find no trouble in getting out provided they tell their employers why they want to be excused. This is something all eIgibles should take advantage of. Every man should vote on election day. If he does not like one party it is his privilege to support another and, no one has any right to find fault with him for what he de- cides to do in that respect so long as he is acting for the best interests of the country according to the light he has of men and public affairs. The last town election made the board of registration a republican body, but this should not deter democrats from shame that this should be So in a strong democratic town, still the men chosen are tolerably decent citizens and despite the fact that they repre- sent the party of trusts and combines, it is but fair to assume that they will do what is right by all who want to be admitted to the franchise It should be remembered, too, that there will be few democrats on hand who will see that things are conducted in g proper manner.
