PLEA FOR WORKMEN
Correspondent Thinks ihe Ciiy
 Should Furnish Employment
To the Editor Waterbury Democrat:

| To the Editor Waterbury Democrat: Dear Sir:-In view of the fact that there are large number of men out l of empolyment and many are practi- cally destitute, would it not be a good Idea for the city government to fur nish work to those out of employ |ment?
 For what more worthy object Icould the public credit be used than assisting those who are in need? Furthermore, is it not the duty of |the government to deal with the |problem of the unemployed? A city is practically a corporation and each citizen is shareholder who |holds one share, his vote. Why should not each citizen use |his vote to force the government to furnish employment for the idle workers7
 It being through the citizens that Ithose who are now at the head of the -ity were elected to their different po-
 tions. their duty is to look after the |welfare of said citizens
 As those out of employment form large percentage of the citizens of his city those in control should im- Inediately devise ways and means to handle the situation
 To quote the immortal Lincoln
 To secure to the Iaborer the full pro IIuct of his laboTs. is an object worthy bf any government" I do not think bur government Is any exception to his quotation.
 Hoping you will do all in your
 ower to assist the unemployed
 am sincerely yours.

SETTLE AND
 GO HUNTING
QUIT LlTleATIon AND JOIN FOR DEPORTATION.

Louis Lane and Jake Berger got into some blame dispute, some time ago about the Nelson bench and declared legal war on each other, but when they came together last night there was nothing split but wins~ and both shook hands and agreed to satiate their bloodthirstness by going out together into the wilderness and killing game.
 The whole trouble arose from mis- understanding. Louis claimed he owned partnership with Jake in the Met son bench which the latter worked some years ago and, in which he did not recognize the part ownership of the other. Like with q railroad coach on the pinnacle of a hill, a touch will send a dispute one way or the other, and that little touch came in the pres- ent case from the wrong direction. But the brakes were put on in time. or in other words, the two friends saw the falsity of their movement and agreed that the mistake made was mu- tual. Now they will go hunting to- gethcr and wonder how it ever hap pened.
 A. J. Daly was Lanes attorney. and Orton was for Berger.

MEETING PASSED
 NO RESOLUTION

Quite a few men answered the call for mass meeting, which had been anonymously summoned for S:S0 o. clock last evening to protest against the reduction of city lights. but after some difficulty had been experienced in finding a chairman, speakers, etc., the meeting adjourned without having done anything except. as Councilman Chilberg seemed to think, endorse the action of the city council.
 The meeting began when John Woedson moved R. B. Milroy to the chair Charley Jones wSs mady sec retary, aid later explai ined tiflt hre knew nothing about the meeting and had only come partly through curios- ity.
 Captain Pierce called on s. H. Stew ems, who said the meeting was very aroused
 Chairman Milroy said he had no doubt some lights could be removed without injury to anyone. and when no one else seemed inclined to speak he advised the little gathering to quit if they wished to take no action.
 Captain Pierce came to the rescue, and said lights were badly wanted at his end of town. Darkness leads to awful tragedies. He remembered once when a man was held up in his neigh borhood and robbed of Is cents and plug of tobacco.
 Thorulf Lehman, of the Spit, who just dropped in, was invited to speak, and he said he believed the lights should not be removed from that part of the city Later he explained that he considered the present council was conducting the affairs of the city in most praiseworthy manner and that he spoke at the meeting only because he had been asked. He and Mir. Thorn ton. of the spit, who also spoke, wished to impress the minds of their hearers with the fact that they favored the present council and that they believed the council would act properly in this as in other matters.
 F. L. Holt said he spoke because no

one else seemed inclined to do so He considered a mass meeting for so trivi- al a cause entirely out of place.
 As he understood it, the council in- tended to take lights out only where they were not needed. A petition would have served the purpose as well as q mass meeting. which seemed ridicu- ious, when it was remembered that it was called to act on a matter which was only worth five or six dollars a night.
 A council cannot suit everybody he said, and the present council was a good suncs -s ~esse--JS-ss ssgs .-ssasf
 Councilman Chilberg, who was pres ent. was called upon, and said that it was evident the meeting endorsed the actions of the council. Some peo- pie had jumped hastily into the mat ter without having investigated nat terS, and condemned the council when they did not know whether the council was flgnt or wrong.
 Some of the lights which had been moved. he said, were absolutely use less to the people and whenever it was found that one of the lights proposed to be removed could not be removed without inconvenience to the public the light would be left where it was.
 The Spit lights. he said. would prob ably be left intact. He would not say examined the matter at that point. but wherever lights were needed lights would be.
 He wound up by saying the council was working for the people and that he knew there was no longer necessity for him to continue to speak as he saw the councils actions were endorsed by those present
 During Mir. Chilberg's speech those present frequently applauded Chair man Milroy said he considered the meeting to be premature. He did not know who called it. He merely occu- pied the chair because he was asked. and he had only come there for curios- ity
 The meeting then adjourned.
