LYNcH's CANDIDACY ESDoRsED.
Correspondents Who Says He Is 4 Man
All Can Vote For.

To the Editor of Democrat:
AS the time for election is drawing
near, it is quite surprising to see how
things are once more being set in mo-
ton by the menied parties to offset
the determined efforts of the wage
workers who appear to be absolutely
tired of the way things have been run,
both by city and state officials, and
who are just beginning to blossom
forth in the same old-fashioned man.
ner by treating everyone with smile
and How are your Never mention
the little on the side" etc. Despite the
apparent determined way in which the
workers Of the city are espousing the
candidacy of Attorney Lynch, it is
rather amusing to note the different
Questions people will ask, when at
tempting to decide who shall receive
their vote. The writer has been much
amused ut some Of the following ques
tons, such as, MWhat church does he
attend? SIS he Roman Catholic or
Protestant" rs he a good looking
fel1ow?" and last, but not least, cot
what nationality does he boast7' Now.
yeu cannot really blame man for ask
ing these questions for II Is the result
generation after generation. What all.
true citizens should determine Is the
two cardinal principles, honesty and
veracfty. II he is gifted with only q
small portion OF each he is worthy of
much consideration and support. The
Political game has been almost worked
to death, and Is nothing to be surprised
at when the workers stand out boldly
and cry Halt" Wlren any sane man
reflects on the incidents Of the past
few months and notices the inequality
of conditions which is the results Of
party power. and on the other hand the
extortionate manner we are at present
being taxed for all improvements in
the city, which is the 'esuIt OF another
kind Of party power, and all the while
on the other hand we allow mighty
and rich corporation to plumber and
rob all our city's principal thorough
fares and even act as though they
owned them if anything happens to
obstruct them and doesn't jump at the
sound Of the gong. These few ---+s
are enough to compel every unpreju-
diced citizen to attend the polls and
thereby use the only weapon he is pos
segsed Of to help to aneliorate our pres
emit system. To such Of these wage
workers / make this plea (who are con-
fined to the workshop almost 364 days
in the year,, to step forth Svith firm
step. and clear eye on election day and
pledge his support to such splendid
type of a fellow workman as the lab
organizations of this city have seen OF
to enthusiastically endorse in the per-
son of Attorney J. M. Lynch. In con
clusfon, cut out all foolish sentiments,
such as color, creed and nationality.
and cast your votes for a man. If the
workers of Waterbury do this then we
can safely wager who will be Water
bury's chief executive for the ensuing
two years. j.

Respectfully submitted.
M. ID. RUSSELL, Comptroller.
The communication was ordered on
file.
The comptroller was requested to
prepare another report affecting the
first taxation district where police pro-
lection has also been asked. Further
action relative to police matters was
deferred pending the reception Of this
report. The board Of public works
was requested to submit to the finance
board statement showing how much
money has been expended on certain
unfinished jobs together with the engi-
neer's estimates when the work was
authorized. This move was taken on
motion of Mr. Goss, who felt that the
board had ignored the charter provf-
sion that work costing 81 600 or over
shall be done by contract.
The board adjourned for a week.

Real Estate and Rents

the price, $500. IF you don't believe
1t try to get any other house on the
street and you win find that you can't
get any of them for less than So, 600.
This speaks volumes for the low price
on this house. 1t should be bought by
some one who intends to Live In one
part and rent the other part It Is in
good .condition and has all the improve-
Inents. This doesn't mean that it has
one portable wash-tHb. You have
prob ably been hunting the town over
for desirable rent, but you find 1t
hard to get one. You should buy this
because 1T will cost you less to own
the house and pay interest money than
it will for you to pay rent. IL you
have q few hundred dollars tucked
away in the bank, you should enjoy
the benefits of it instead of letting the
bank officials have. their shooting boxes
in the Maine woods and their villas in

Our policy is deliberately liberal.
It would be absurd for us to claim
any special advantages in gather
Ing these goods. The Factories OF
the world are accessible to OH re-
taiiers. However, we are ever
alert, continually on the qui vive
for exceptional chances. No store
is quicker or reaHier to grasp
them when they appear. That IL

The other, the vital and important
cause of low prices, here, is that
we are willing to sell on IA marrow

dealer. Admitting, for the sake
of argument, that we pay the same
as others, the fact that our policy
insists ON marking goods at the
very lowest OF low rates carries
