Voters of New Britain
 TAXPAYERS AND RENTPAYERS

It Is very important for you, MT. Voter to know, that you and your friends and neighbors should not miss this election tomorrow. First of all do you want the Republican Machine to rule the city all the time. Every Tom, Dick and Harry know that the Assessors did not do the right work when they reassessed Main Street property and left out the Ma honal Bank Building. Did the Assessors refuse to increase this Bank Building by order of one of the Bosses?
 Why wasn't the New Britain Trust Co., assessed? When you the New Britain Trust Co., inventory you will find that their fixtures are inventoried over S3O,VOO and the machine nominates the treasurer of the same bank the School Board Of course it IS easier to spend the other fellows money than your own.
 Our Honorable Mayor will not remove the As sessors, 1t is to you Mr. Voter to 20 10 the Polls tomorrow and vote the straight Democratic Ticket Since 1892, the Republicans had always majority in the Council and it is absolutely necessary to change this to a Democratic Council so that the people in this city should get fair and square deal At pres ent, the way property is assessed one class pays from 15 to Fl mills and the other class from to l2 mills. 1t your duty to vote and change the COun- ci and let the boss know that you are going to let the people rule this City for the best interest of all 21 mills is stiff tax for the service the taxpavers get in New Britain We don't even get our ashes removed
 So it's up to you, Mr. Taxpayer and Mr. Rent payer to to the polls tomorrow early and vote the straight Democratic Ticket Every member on the Democratic Ticket has romised faithfully to work for lower tax, and honest and square government
