Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-10-11
DIR CRANE A MARK.

The democrats know nothing about the political document which pr Crane says he received by mail, post marked Waterbury. Somebody must have sent the medical examiner the pamphlet to get his opinion of Roose- velt's ability as writer, and he sWal- lowed the bait. A sharp republican would have said that although 1t was poorly printed the matter was good, so long as 1t emanated from the repubIi- can standard bearer. Another disciple of Aesculpius found a similar pamph- let in his mail to-day, union label and all, and he states that the only thing he noticed in 1t was that some folks might consider 1t too laudatory of the Irish. Roosevelt's orations on the Irish are proving to be boomerangs and the democrats are vAry anxious to have them passeo along.
 The republicans of Waterbury don't care to discuss the banner question. One of them said to-day that the amount of money political organiza- ton has to pay for banner would accomplish better results if used in some other way,

 The Hartford silk stockings are about to perform their usual stunt with Candidate McGovern and as knife wielders they have always in the past proved themselves masters. 1t does not seem, however, as if this sort of political fastidiousness would greatly help the candidacy of Lieutenant-Gov ernor Roberts.

 The Hartford Courant seems to bA considerably stirred up over the an, nouncement that the Swedish votera of the state are deserting the republi- can party and are affiliated with the democrats. and in recent issue att tempts to deny this fact However it will be found that many formes Swedish republicans are working ener- getically for the success of, the demo- cratic ticket The Courant's Swedish informant admits that the turning down of Charles Nelson, a prominent New Britain Swede, 'ruffled the feel ings of his countrymen," and this ruff fIe will need considerable pressing be fore it can be strengthened out.-Hart ford Times.
