JOHN H. CASSIDY
Alderman 3rd District


 The Dem mocrats of the Third dis trict have again nominated John H. Cassidy who has already represented of aldermen. Mr. Cassidy for a mum Bryant Electric Cos He started to flee boy and gradually worked his way to the important position he now holds, that of foreman. He has many friends in that section of the city. They are sanguine of his reelection.
 Mir. Cassidy said to-day that all though he was not cIassed with the advocates of Frederick c. Mullins at the primaries he favored his election well as that of his associates on the. Democratic ticket. He pledges his word of honor as a gentleman and a democrat that he will be esfound sup porting the entire ticket named by the Democratic convention. Those who know Alderman Cassidy best say he can be depended upon to keep his word. He is a young man whose friends say he has a future in poIi- tics and they say it would be suicidal for himself or his close associates to be found where the enemies of the Democratic party are hoping he might be found on election day. MT. Cas- sidy has told his Democratic friends that this newspaper cannot make it too strong to suit him that he's for the complete Democratic ticket now and always and will use his every en- deavor to see that the ticket is sue ceSsful in his district.

it all together he has got about the fattest thing in any country town in the state. If the town wants to keep a club house for a part of the people it has a right to do it, but there are some who think it about time for little reform in this department as well as in others. The chemical gets out and makes a big noise. Half 8 dozen favorites of the chief are the only ones who know anything about a fire until they read about it next day. It's about time the bell rang again and the whole company of fremen who get exemptions and the privileges of the fire house should have a chance to do their, share And besides all the ex- pense of the chemical it never yet put out fire which could not have been handled by a bucket brigade or a, full company, with a hose cart in the old fashioned way There is a feeling right in the company about the at tempt of the chief to shut out all of the firemen but a few he has picked out He wants to keep it a close cor poration. There ought to be at least chemical and the first man there should take out the machine when the chief happens to be away attending to his many other jobs-

 FAIR PLAY.
 
 trees in this section and the rapid in crease of the disease is causing much apprehension. The disease is slowly working it's way toward the north and in the last year has made much prog ress. It seems to be worse in the vii cinity of the Housatonic river and property owners as far as the town extends are preparing to cut all af- fected trees this winter. Splendid trees all the way to Putney and be- yond have contracted the disease and will be valueless unless cut soon. There is a popular belief that the dis ease affects the nuts and makes them poisonous, but this has not been scien- tifcally established The trees are dy- ing by the wholesale, that is sure, and there seems to be no remedy.
 Supt. W. B. Kelsey has adopted the German method of constant supervis- ion at the Center school and has a1- ready noted it's good results Under this system children are directed in their play well in their studies. Tn the school yards, during the inter missions, scholars are taught accuracy, courtesy and fairness in their games. Educational features are unconscious1y introduced and many errors which arise among the children when they are left to themselves are either pre- vented or corrected before they have done damage. It is the principle of the system that children are learning "h11e they play and should also play while they learn. The experiment may be extended to all the schools of the town if it proves as successful as antici- pated.

 Stratford, Oct 31.-The following communication has been handed The Farmer for publication:
 Editor Evening Farmer:
 Dear Sir: After we had been asking for more lights in the outskirts to get home without being mired in the holes we came out and found the fire house a blaze of light. A dozen big electric lights were going full blast with no one to use them. The fire chief had Just asked the finance board for $4, 900 to run the department and even then he did not seem to know what was needed only he wanted the money.
 Now few of these big lights for which the town is paying will do us more good in the outskirts than it will a few people at the center who use them for playing cards or having a good time generally. The fire chief gets $2O per week from the town Be- sides this he is janitor for the Cup heag club and for the Futile building. He gets a large sum in fees as con stable and also as turnkey of the lock up The electric light company em- ploys him to look after it's lights and don't think he does that for nothing. Maybe he buys coal for use in his home. but Decrle don't believe tt Take

DANIEL E. WALKER Alderman 4th District

Perhaps the best known member of the present board of alderman is the candidate elected at the primaries in the fourth district to succeed himself, Daniel E. Walker. Mir. Walker has been a member of the board of alder men since the first year of the admin istration of Ex-Mayor Edward T. Buckingham. Shortly after his ad- vent into that body he was honored by Ex-Mayor Buckingham by appoint ment to important committees, and ever since he has been able to retain his positions of importance.
 For 23 years he has been a resi- dent of Bridgeport and practically all of that period he has resided in the West End. When Ex-Mayor Buck Buckingham named John I. Near for the position of superintendent of the Police and Charities building, MT. Walker was elected by the board of aldermen to fill his unexp1red term. Upon the expiration of his term of of ice. two years ago, he was nominated by his party, and reelected by the people. During the past two years he has been chairman of the committee on streets and sidewalks and of the committee on claims. He resides at 375 Clinton avenue where he has, a handsome home.
 It is MT. Walkers boast that re- gardless of the outcome of primary fights in the Democratic party he and those friends with whom he is on intimate terms of friendship can be depended upon to be found on election day working shoulder to shoulder for the success of the Democratic ticket. MT. Walkers friends in the Fourth district are supremely sanguine that he will be returned to the board by a substantial majority

This picture is important as well as interesting. It shows a narrow channel cut in the Cucaracha slide in Culebra cut in the Panama canal. The explosion of Gamboa dike was historic but as a matter of fact it did not complete the waterway be- tween the two oceans. The wedding Of the Atlantic and Pacific, while off, ciaIly consumnated by that explosion,
 did not actually occur until the great Cucaracha slide, which extended clear

This charge directed at the little fellow, the small office holder. How about the big fellows that are doing the same thing on an equally big scale? Each state having an election is having the benefit of Washington influences. Witness MT. Bryan today stumping the State of New Jersey in the interest of Governor Fielder. do not know that I see any real objection to it but would like to see a flair field and no favor."
