Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-10-15

As Henry A. Bishop, democratic nominees for governor and lieutenant governor, came to Waterbury this forenoon and were escorted to the Hotel Oonnect1- cut on Center street, where they re- cedved callers during the afternoon, and the number that called surprised people who were not aware of what was going on. They included men in all walks of life and In some instances electors who have not been active in politics for years, notably Elisha LeavenWorth, N J. Welton, George
 W. Beach and others. Edward |.
 FTisbfe. ST, was out Of town, but sent his card that he was pleased to learn that harmony prevails in Waterbury and that the indications point to dem- ocratic victory in Connecticut Messrs Leavenworth, Welton and Frisbie were members of the first city govern ment of Waterbury, MT Welton being the first city clerk, and the trio are still sound democrats, twfthstanding all we hear about assertions from that organization. Among the callers were about twenty five members of the Waterbury bar, who marched in a body to the hotel, their presence on the street creating quite ripple of ex- cftement Delegations from different parts of the town kept pouring in right along and the candidates were on the hustle to keep up with the procession. They made no speeches, but they talked like men that felt confident of coming in ahead in the race and made a very favorable impression on all who called upon them.
 A rare treat awaits everybody who win attend the democratic rally in the Auditorium tonight. The speakers will be the Hon Bourke Cochran, Judge Robertson and Henry A. Bishop. Dr David will preside. Seats will be reserved for the clergy, No boys will be admitted. MT Cochran is expected to arrive here at T o'clock this even- ing and the following have been ap> pointed as committee to meet him at the railroad station: Hon Francis P. Guilfoile, A. H. Wells, Christian Strobel, John Moriarty and I. Chase. It seems to be pretty generally under stood that the Auditorium will not be l able to accommodate all who will turn out to hear the speakers, and 1t is probable that somebody will say few words to those who will not be able to get.Jinto the building. It will be the best rally ever held by the democrats of Waterbury.
 There was good attendance at the republican rally in City hall last night to hear the Hon MT DaIzell of Penn l sylvania, the steel trusts attorney and fmouthpiece. talk on the political situ. 1 ation. MT Dalze1l isn't an orator. but 1 he Is good talker just the same and put up first rate argument in favor of the trusts and combines. There was poor order, but the speaker was pa- l tient and didn't appear in any way an- noyed over the constant tramp of peo- pie who kept going out in twos and 1 fhrees and half dozens, to the great annoyance of people who wanted to hear what MT Dalzell had to say. Att torney Wilson H. Pierce, the republi- can candidate for judge Of probate, 1 introduced the speaker, who opened i by stating that when he came into ] iGOnnecticutc saw the various man. lfacturing industries and other eti. denecs of thrift, he thought he was nearing his own home, because hs brides himself on being resident Of I the most prosperous state in the l Union. He then reviewed the history l of the republican party from the days I.of Lincoln to the present time and
 credited practically all the prosperity the country has since enjoyed to the
 prudence and foresight of wise legis-
 Iation. He explained vhe homestead laws, which opened up the far west
 to tillers of the soil, who carried with them the church and the school house and the faith and the maxims of Saxon fertilization. Trusts, the speaker con sidered, belong to periods of prosperity 8 natural evolution of economy The day Of small things he considered had passed and accumulation of wealth for a common purpose is absolutely neces,
 sary. Every antitrust law passed by
 congress and every attempt made to
 enforce them was the work of repub- lfcans. He believed bad trusts would accomplish their own ruin, but made
 no bones Of stating that most of them
 are beneficial and deserve to be en-
 couraged If the trusts were put out
 of existence the manufacturers would
 still exist, but they could do so only
 by cutting down wages, so that ac.
 cording to Mr DalZells way of looking
 at things, the trusts are close friends
 of the wage earner. He explained the
 tariff laws. talked or free trade free
 silver, praised Roost and said he
 was told that Parker might be all
 right putting up swings at Sunday
 school picnics. The most biting piece
 of sarcasm in his address was a state st uGut IdkGu IT0H q IOD WHESOn QOCu-
 ment, which showed very plainly
 where the Watson men stand. The author of 1t could see how a sane man
 could vote the republican ticket, but
 he was at loss to know how anybody possessed of common sense could think 1 of supporting the democratic ticket. It I was the best thing the speaker put
 forward in favor of his side of the
 house, and then you win hear fellows get mad and want to light if some body tells them that all these side
 shows are working for the republicans.
 MT Dalzell not only wanted the head
 of the ticket elected, but he also plead
 ed for a republican congress, so tNlt
 there would be no appointment of committees to investigate this or that and thus disturb the peace of the coun- try. Tn fact, he spoke as if the party l does not care to give the other fellows
