WILLIAM H. MCOY

William H. Mccoy, the Democratic aldermanic candidate in the Second district, is practically a life long res- ident of that strongly Democratic section. The voters of that section are especially fortunate in having as their candidate a man of his natural ability
 Mr Mccoy resides with his family at Summer street He has been known for years as a quiet worker in the Democratic ranks. He won the nomination after a hotly contested primary fight, which brought him into the public eye more than he had been accustomed until this fall He has large personal following, as well as the strength of the big Democratic majority of the district to insure his election.
 The candidate is an expert machin- ist. He has been identified With the Sprague Meter Go. since it's inception, and has followed the fortunes of the rapidly growing concern steadily ana faithfully, until now, as foreman, he has charge of a large body of work men and supervises a vast output or meters from day to day.
 MT. Mccoy is member of the Courtland club of Bridgeport aerie, F. o. E., and of Court Marina, F. of A. Voters of the Second are confident that he will exercise the good judg- ment and integrity that have been characteristic of his business life Tn the public work he will be called upon to perform as a member of the Com mon Council.

CHARLES H. AMMAN

Because of the prominence and standing as citizen and taxpayer of MT. Charles HI. Hinman, the Demo- cratic candidate for Alderman in the First district, the electors of that dis trict are confident that MT. Hinman will be chosen their representative in the next Common Council by the vot CTS on next Tuesday. Mir. Hinman is one of the best known men in Bridge port. Of old New England ancestry he was born in Bridgeport the son of Henry Meade Hinman, for many years a wholesale merchant in Water street. As boy he worked in his fathers store, and upon attaining his major ity he went to New York city where he engaged in business, remaining there for 10 years. Failing health necessitated his returning to his home in this city, where shortly after re- gaining his health he went to work for the Hawley Lumber Co.,, in a re- sponsible position. Some years later his business ability attracted the at tention of Frank Miller and he ac- cepted from MT. Miller the position of general manager of his big coal yards in East Bridgeport. There he re- mained until about eight years ago when he retired. Mr. Hfnman accum- ulated considerable competence dur ing the years of his business activity. He is married and has one son, F.. D. Hinman, of the Western Electric Co of New York, and one daughter, Mrs. A. P. Simmons, of Philadelphia. Years ago when that section of Bridge port east of the Yellow Mill pond was known as the borough of West Strat- ford, MT. Hinman served for nine con secutive years as borough clerk, in which position he displayed marked executive ability. He has been a consistent Democrat all his life and few men in Bridgeport enjoy the con- fidence of the public to higher de- gree. He has been prominently iden- tified with the Bridgeport Lodge of Elks since it's inception, being one of it's charter members and past ex- alted ruler, and for many years it's treasurer. No political party in the history of our city has ever nominat- ed for office gentleman better fit ted by eduction and experience to serve the people than Charles H. Hin- man. He is almost as strong with the Republicans as he is with the Democrats and it is believed that de- spite the normal Republican majority in the First district he will be elect ed

JOHN H. CASSIDY

John H. Cassidy, whom the Dem ocrats of the Third district have re- nominated, is entitled to reelection by the voters of that rapidly growing section of the city. Alderman Cas- sidy has an excellent record in the Common Council, and has shown in his keen interest in the proceedings of the Council that he has the welfare of his constituents at heart.
 Alderman Cassidy is a good type of the young man in politics. He is 30 years of age. He entered the em- ploy of the Bryant Electric Co.,, as lad of IA, working first as an office boy. Mis- natural aptitude soon won recognition and he has been advanced steadily until he is now a foreman. He is a native of Black Rock and his people for two preceding generations have dwelt in that section Practi- cally every resident of Black Rock knows him.
 While he holds the confidence and esteem of the older men, he is es- pecially popular among the younger men of the district. He has figured prominently in the affairs of the Black Rock Athletic Club, and he is a leading member of St. sJoseph's Tenn perance Society. His district, con- fident that his ability is largely re- sponsible for its numerous improve ments during the last two years. should return him by a substantial majority.

PETER J. CARROLL

Peter J. Carroll, the next alderman from the Seventh district, is nominat- ed in district that ordinarily rolls up a substantial majority for the Democratic candidate. MT. Carroll is not a stranger in politics. In 1902 he was elected alderman from the Sev- enth and his two years in the Com mon Council bear the closest scrutiny He was always found voting for the best interests of the people and for his district. dn 1907 he was returned to that body by substantiaI major ity:
 MT. Carroll succeeded by his diplo- matic methods in securing many im- provements for his district that were highly appreciated and it is not so long ago that his constituents will fail to remember what he did during his former terms in the Council.
 MT. Carroll is a painter, widely known throughout his own district. He is known as a successful district worker, and his well ordered methods of campaigning will likely result in his receiving a fine majority His friendly attitude towards labor meas ures in the Council called forth for him many expressions of approval from among the toilers, while in all transactions he was guided by sense of justice and right that won him such approval that the renomination to the Council is his practically at any time for the asking.
