Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-06-02

The suicide of Representative Rob- ert (''Bertie') Adams of Philadel- phia, yesterday, has induced sombre feeling among Pennsylvanians in Washington. He was one of the pop ular members of the house. It has been known for some time, however, that he was worrying over the politi- cal situation in his district. Once a rich man, having practically nobody to care for but himself, he has been bled by political rings and "heelers" from year to year. until he had at the time of his death next to nothing left. Of course, it is an open secret that he lost considerable money. in various sorts of speculation, but his real trouble was political. Realizing that his fortune had been swept away and that without money he scarcely could hope for a renomina- tion to congress, he became despon- dent and finally ended his trouble with revolver.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-06-02

Do you think Mir Bryan will be the next democratic candidate for president?" was asked of Mayor Thayer of New London, recently. T do," he. replied, because I think he is the biggest and broadest man in the party, and because his experi- ences in two campaigns will lead him to yield his own ideas on the financial question to those of the people. I believe the people both east and west regard him favorably, as a sound man, whose character and ability have never been questioned. And except for his old-time views on the silver question he would have been elected in his former campaigns" It begins to look like Bryan, and it al- ways was fact since his first defeat by the voters of his own party, that there will be no unity in that party until these men reverse themselves and fall in line and vote for Bryan or some other democrat who is gifted with his ability and ideas.

seeker and those who desire to bet
 ter their condition. This was made
 plain by few pertinent remarks of Government Statistician Blanchard in an address few evenings ago to a club of young men. 'The west, ]" said he, lis the land of opportunity. and the great development now going on in that region has widened the field of human endeavor. There are openings in all lines of industry for those who are willing to work. It is favorable field for common labor CTS owing to the initiation of govern ment construction, the extension of railroads and the growth of cities and towns. Opportunities are offered under the government works for a laborer with a family to take up a homestead and during construction the male members of the family can work on the canals. The contractors all over the west are complaining of the scarcity of men and farmers are begging for more help. These con ditions indicate an excellent time for social economists who are concerning themselves gravely over the conges- tion in eastern centers of population to investigate the question of trans ferring some of these landless men to these manless lands

VERSES BY STUDENT.
Read at Luncheon to Board of Educa-
 tion by Friendly League Pupil.

The verses following will be of especial interest in connection with the luncheon that was given at the School of Housekeeping to the board of education. This is the fifth annual luncheon of a series that has been rendered to this board of public school students of the cookery class es, whose instruction is received at the Friendly League School of House keeping. One hundred and eighty stu dents from the Sth and 9th grades have been in attendance at these classes during the school year 1905- 1906.
 Readers will be interested to learn of the estimate in which that work is held by these students. In no way perhaps can this be accomplished to better advantage than by considering the following lines from the pen of a High School student, member of q former cookery class, and graduate of the High school.

SATURDAY. JUNE ?, 1906.

A committee appointed by the Brit ish parliament to investigate the tramp problem in England estimates that in seasons of depression there are S0,0O0 tramps in that country, and that it is less than half that number. Tramps are everywhere and constitute any eye sore. They are considered to be vehicles of infectious diseases. Legislation by parliament to regulate and mitigate the evil is recommended, though no solu- tion of the problem short of finding en- ployment and paying better wages is regarded as possible.
