 Senator Kennedy voted for the bhl estab ablishing eight hours as legal days work; also voted for the Dill gfv' ing the city of Waterbury right fo establish and maintain electric light and gas plant.
 All of the above bills. the 1aboring people of this state were greatly inter ested in at the time, and are now, and if you who claim to have done more than your predecessors will only take up the bills referred to above, and you being in the majority party in the sen ate, you would undoubtedly have az much influence in the passage of those bills as you did in making the six dem ocratic members in the state senate chairmen of insignificant committeess
 The above bills are only few of the many presented to the legislature of Connecticut in the interest of the la boring man. You have it in your power at the present time to introduce bill in the state senate to compel the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Go to leave the present strike or submit the same to arbitration. The employees are willing to arbitrate the differences existing between the railway company and themselves, and if you are the friend you claim to be of the labor men. why don't you introduce such a bill as mentioned above? The party you belong to have the power to pass 1t, and you could ask for suspension of the rules and send the bill to the house of representatives and the two republican representatives. Lines and Cross, through their influence. together with your own, cause said bill to be come a law and have the strike in Wa terbury settled this week.

Itor .,f E,venine Democrat ::

Editor of Evening Democrat:
 I noticed in reading your paper on January 23, 1903, Senator Tracy or Waterbury felt aggrieved and took ex- captions to some matters contaaned ln the Democrat in relation to him. He stated in his letter that he distributed some stock of the Tracy Bros to q few of the many employees of the company, and upon that ground he asked the name of some of his predecessors who have done more for the laboring class than he I presume Senator Tracy in distrib uting stock of corporation to some of his employees did so for the purpose of the employees taking more of an interest in the company than they formerly had and by making them stockholders, make his dividend larger. Undoubtedly Senator Tracy will introduce and advocate many bills in the senate that will prove beneficial and to the advantage of the laboring men, not only to this district but of the state, and I am waiting anxiously to hear when he will present such bills and their names and character. would call Senator Tracy's attention to a few of the bills that Senator Ken nedy introduced at the last session of the senate and ask him if he will be kind enough to procure copy of the bills from the secretary of state and introduce them at this session
 <. Senate bill No 6, "An act to extend and regulate the liability of employers to make compensation for personal in- juries suffered by employees in their service" providing for damages where injuries are received by reason of de- fectdve machinery, works, or ways where the same is in charge of any person who stands in the relation of a yice-principal, and also giving damages for injuries on railroads where the in- iuries are caused by the negligence of fellow servants, and making the em- ployers liability extend to injuries caused by the negligence of contrac- tors and sub contractors.
 Senate bill No g. tAn act repealing chapter 231 of the public acts of 1893, 7 providing for the repeal of said chap ter, which is an act authorizing cities and other municipalities to establish plants for the manufacture of gas and electricity

Consumption

The only kind of consump-
ton to fear is neglected
consumption"
People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease.
1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands Of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul-
sion is.
Prompt use of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.
