Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-11-05


 of the committee that he wanted to ' send these ballots to hardshell>repub- licans whom he had reason to believe would put them into the ballot boxes tomorrow. but who would work for them at the booths and as conse- quence would vote their own party ticket from top to bottom? But in any case 1t stirred up 2 hornets nest and sh0wn that even members of the town committee who ought to be unit on everything, differ widely from each other as to method.
 Dr Adelard D. David, the we'll known Center street physician, will address democratic rally at Willi- mantle this evening. Mayor Thayer will also be one of the speakers at the rally.
 MT Donahue came to town to-day and called upon his friends and the leaders of his party. He was san guine of winning by big majority. Regarding his failure to be here at the rally last Thursday evening, he said that he had heard there was to be rally here and later that the party could not hire a hall and the rally was called of, but that he was booked to speak here he had not had the slightest notice until Friday morning when he opened his mall. At the outset of the campaign. he said. the state committee laid out the plans for the stumpers and what the committee decided had to go. A number of machinists who met him asked If he could not speak here this evening and he said that however much he would like to 1t was out of the question as his voice broke down during his speech ln Norwalk Satur- day evening and he is billed for Derby this evening.
 There Is almost as much interest in Waterbury in the New York cleo tion as there is in the election in this state. Although Hughes is quoted as being 3 and to favorite there is very little money at these odds being put up in Waterbury. Almost every democratic voter in the fourth and fifth wards to-day received tick cts with Joe Reid's pasters over the naWe of John Hurley. Very few of them will undoubtedly be used, all though MT Reid thinks that the east ern. section of the city will give him a big vote. There was some com ment around town among other re- publicans about Reid sending tickets i out in this manner. but it Is under- stood that he received the sanction of Chairman Church of the republi- can town committee. MT Reid is of the impression that almost every young man in both the fourth and fifth wards will vote for him. John Hurley is not saying word. as he thinks there is little to he said, as he is of the opinion that his friends will stick to him and pile up rous- ing plurality. :,
 Come in and have cup of hot coffee on me-" said John O'Neill Sat urday to few friends whom he met on his way to the meeting of the board of agents of the Bronson H. brary. The invitation was accepted and while they were waiting to be served one of them remarked, giving the fellow next to him d nudge, that ONeill was getting generous. where. upon the astute disciple of Black stone explained that it was no such thing. hut he is candidate for office he said. and he didn't sec why he hadn't as good right to stir around | as others and see what votes cost He didn't suppose 1t was necessary because he knew his election was d | foregone conclusion, but even so he believed 1t to be the duty of every man who is placed on ticket to helr out. MT O'Neill Is the democrati, nominee for senator from the if. teenth district and is we'll aware tha, he hasn't ghost of show of being elected, because the district is hope lessly republican,. but that doesn', seem to bother him one jot. In fact it is pretty generally believed tha, John would not have accepted the nomination if he had the slightest notion that he would get there.
 | Crowley of St Thomas's spoke on pol itics. He said that as usual all can didates are now talking about better ing the affairs of the working man but after election the workingman is heard of no more, until next election time comes around. For the past twenty five years. he said, he has beer hearing of this cry about the work. ingman and always about election time. but SD far. as he could see the condition of the worLingman is about the same to-day as it has been. and whatever improvements he has secured were won by his own efforts The only thing for the workingmar to do was to form a party of his owr and let the republican and the demo cratic party take care of themselves and if he is unable to form a party o
 his own he ought to cut and slasl and paste until he gets what he wanti from the other parties. As for keep
 ing religion out of politics. he said
 the place for religion was in politics
 ard the moment young man take,
 the oath of citizenship from that mo
 ment he swezrs by his Cod to cast hi
 vote for the betierment of his coun try and for no man or party. If ther,
 was religion In politics. Father Crow
 ley said. there would be less dishon
 esty in politics. snd there would b'
 better men In politics. and social con
 ditions wouId be healthier and purer
 Father Crowlevis remarks were brief
