Send Men for Workingmen's interests.

MT Editor: If you will allow me a few lines in your valuable paper in reply to an article printed on Mon day morning.
 Being anxious to see that the work lng1nen of the town of Norwich are not led astray by misrepresentation of facts, in which John Eccles sets forth his position as a friend of the Iaborine man.
 In the first place, tlle workingmea of the village of Taftville cannot agree with him on this point. During the strike of 1899 at the Ponemah mills, when the committee representing the Worlingmen called on MT. Eccles in regard to the grievance existing be- tween the weavers and the corpora tion, MT Eccles stated to the commit tee, with emphasis: T do detest and denounce labor unions" Can the work ingmen expect anything that will favor them in Hartford if MT. Eccles Is elected?
 Can the Workingmen take MT. Ec- cles' word and trust it, after the an- nouncement he made to them during the campaign of 1896 at one of the Tallles here: Just as sure as the joy ful tidings announce the election of William Mckinley, just as sure will | your wages be advanced 10 per cent. ? | What was the result?
 On Dec. Sd of that same year the 1 Ponemah mills reduced the wages of ! their employees 10 per cent. instead of l the promised advance.
 Now, it Is up to the voters of the | town to make sure about the thing, and sec that they send men to Hart | ford they are sure will vote for their interests. Such men are John F. Cra- ney, who has been tried and has prov 1 ed his usefulness to the workingman. and William T. Delaney, who Is also a | friend of the workingman: Vote for
 the above named candidates and yo11 will vote in the interests of yourselves, Remember the words T do detest and denounce labor unions," and judge
 for yourself if you can expect any
 thing. from the man who made the statement.
 Thanking yod in advance for your valuable space, I am

Whitsside- Strauss Company at tho Cprheurn Theater All Next Week.

Few Companies playing ct popular prices have achieved the success and popularity of the Whiteside-Strauss coupPny. because the average popular pr!oad company does not realize that the patrons of a repertoire company are as discriminating in their tastes as the patrons of the higher priced at- trac, ions. The Whiteside-Strauss' comp any have put forth every effort to ma ke their annual tour an event in the cities in which they appear. The evolution ob the popular priced attrac- lions aince they have been forced to meet the competition of the dve-cent picture house has been wonderful
 sout the only thing good about those r a days from the standpoint of the play patron Is that they are gone for with them went the blood curdling melodrama and h its place today the Whites de- Ssf sfauss company is pre- senting only plays of the highest class. Their opening play Is an example, The Parish Priest, the play that made DAn suiiv famous. A standard attraction for years st two dollars Every play on their list iS of the same standard of excellence and every performance is as carefully staged aa the original production.

.ETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
A Divided House Cannot Stand.

Mir Editor: One more appeal-the last. Are we ready for the question? There seems to be sufficient evidence now to warrant the feeling that MT. Roosevelt is third in the race. Even some of his strongest supporters ex- press doubts as to his election or words to that effect. They guess he will be elected. Well. that brings the matter down to choice between Taft and Wilson. That, undoubtedly, is the sit uation. Now, do you want MT. Will son to be elected president of the Unit ed States Do you want a democratic congress? Those of you who have vot- ed the republican ticket heretofore cer- tainly do not. IL is up to you to de- eide it. This fact has been brought to your attention repeatedly, but do you fully realize what 1t means? You can not afford, now, to allow any other thought or feeling to influence you. It is your duty to yourself, your fam fly, the country, to choose between what you can possibly call the two evils But, how can you think i'll of President Taft? He has proved him. self 10 be an honorable, conscientious executive and worthy of our respect and support. In regard to the repub- lican party-if you are using d ma- chine in agricultural pursuits or for the manufacture of any, article, and that machine does not work satisfac- toruy, you fix it, you do not con- sign 1t to the scrap heap. Probably 1t needs a new part to take the place of one which is imperfect or badly worn, and by the introduction of that new part the machine runs all right and does just as good work as before, If the republican party machine was not working to your satisfaction, there is all the more reason why you should help to fix it. If we all deserted the republican for some other one,- we should be right where we started. Isn't it good name? The trouble is not with the party. A house divid- ed against itself cannot stand. Unless we remain united the democratic par- ty is going to win out. Are you pre- pared to accept the penalty? Re- member a vote for any other candi- date except Taft means a vote for Will son. Make no mistake, at the polls next Tuesday.
