to himself as stockholder in this corporation known as the city of New Britain which had been governed by a democratic mayor for ten of the past twelve years. The speaker said that on next Tuesday the people of the city will decide who is to be their as the other speaker had said Mr. PeltOn is a man that will fulfill all the requirements that the office calls for. MT. Halloran said that the tes- timony of a fellow worker on the charity board is one of the test as sets that the candidate can receive. He knew some of the abilities of the nominee, having named him as a commissioner when first elected to office, and his work during that time warranted a e-appOintment two years later. While the speaker said that the city is said to be normally re- publican, there is no majority that sentiment cannot wipe out and when d man like MT. Pelton is named to head the ticket, he felt confident that the people would turn out next Tues day and elect him as their mayor. MT. Halloran's remarks Werc tilletN with sentiment and were received with long applause.
 C. E. Hart, venerable member of the party who is never found want ing when the duty of his party calls said that the remarks of the previous speaker showed devotion to the best interests of the party. MT Pelton wilt give you d digni- lied administration that we need not be ashamed off, Mr. Hart added in closing.
 Attorney L.e Witt also spoke brief lN Tn lauding the choice of the party
 T. W. O'Connor said that despite the fact that it had been asked on numerous occasions as to who Mir. Felton is and what he has done. he believed that Mir. Pelton would es- tablish himself both as an acquaint- ance and a friend of the voters of the city when elected.
 MT. Hart said that the birth of democracy in Mir. Pelton's family oates back so far that no one can remember it.
 The following committee was ap- pointed to notify MT. Pelton of his selection as candidate for mayoraIty: State Central Committeeman G. NJ. Landers, Charity Commissioner Frank T. Riley and J. NJ. Halloran. When the committee returned a few minutes later with MT. Pelton, he vas rendered an ovation.
 Speech of Acceptance.
 Candidate Pelton's address of ac- CeptanCe follows:
 Ut is with very great pleasure that I receive the news of my un- animous nomination for the office of mayor on the democratic ticket. I accept it with deep realization of the honor conferred upon me
 During my twelve years residence in New Britain I have enjoyed work ing in several different ways for the good of the city. It is gratifying to feel that these efforts to be of service tC the community have been ap- preciated.

certain amount of his time to the ser vice of the city in which. he lives. New Britain, in the past, has been most fortunate in the willingness of her citizens to enter public life. The welfare Of each one of us depends on the growth and development of our city along modern lines of inn proVement.
 T have not previously taken a prominent part in politics. l have, however. taken a keen interest in city affairs and in the study of muni- Cipal problems.
 "Six years ago I was nominated for councilman on the democratic ticket in the third ward, and the next year my name was used for the nOmina- ton for alderman Both were forlorn hopes but it was a. pleasure to be of service to the party It was also a this manner for the principles of democracy.
 Five years ago Mayor Holloran asked me to serve on the board of public charities. After on year. when MT. Chase retired I was elected \chairman of the board Mayor Hal
  ed me and I served two more years cs chairman of the board
 The work was congenial and I enjoyed serving the city in this capacity.
 'These four years experience made me familiar with the work of the charity board in particular and also ,.it ness in other departments. The fact that I am a mechanical engineer can be of great assistance in solving many technical and engineering problems of city government Hay ing such knowledge and experience one would he better able to deal with these, important and progress sive branches of our municipal work and would effect considerable econ omies to the already overburdened taxpayer.
 'If elected I shall plan to co-or- and by a spirit of cooperation to de- 1clop tremendously the work of our city in an economical and efficient manner This will effect the best re- suits without friction By careful study and planning a considerable re- ductiOn of expenses can be made in some departments without lessening their effectiveness or their efficiency.
 II am not going to make many promises. Promises made before election fall into different classes. Some cannot be kept because they are beyond the power of the mayor; the keeping of others depends on circumstances beyond his control.
 Tt seems to me better, therefore. tC simply assure you that I shall. if elected, serve the people of New Britain, all the people, to the very best of my ability, that I shall ap- roint to the several positions those best fitted to fill them, and shall work for a harmonious, economical handling of public business to the end that New Britain shall be a

 When the naming of a candidate for city treasurer was reached, c.
