Attorney Homer s.

He will deal with the unemploy- ment situation, pointing out that millions of men are out of work and have been unemployed for nearly three years. He will call at- tention to the hard and bitter win ter ahead and severely criticise the national republican administration for it's failure to take adequate steps to relieve the needy suffering from the depression.
 Former National Committeeman Cummings will also call attention to the fact that when President Woodrow Wilson took office on March 4th, 1913, his first act was to drive an importunate and corrupt lobby out of Washington.

fsnecial to The Democrat

Naugatuck, Oct 21-Reports of the informal meeting of the board of warden and burgesses held yes- terday afternoon gave an ominous view to the financial status of the borough government under the re- publican administration and resi- dents were conjecturing how much longer budgets will last if the re- ports of the meeting are true. No members of the press were admit ted to the closed door conference of the borough fathers. |.
 According to reports of the ses- sion which are worthy of credit Warden Harris Whittmore inform ed the board members that there was but $2,100 left in the public works budget to carry on projects the remaining five and one-half months of the fiscal year.
 He suggested that the burgesses vote by secret ballot, although no motions are supposed to come up at informal meetings, to determine if a special tax of one mill should be~levied. The six burgesses voted against such a tax after he had explained, it was said, that if $15,- 900 was raised in this way the Naugatuck Unemployment Fund, Inc. would donate $25,00O and the administration could manage to live within the budget the remain der of the year.
 It was said that Warden Whit temore informed the board that all street department employees in- cluding foremen will have to- be laid Off Saturday. He was report ed as saying that he regretted such action was necessary right now at election time.
 A member of the board suggest ed that the borough enter a bid to construct the Millville bridge, a state highway department pro- ject. If the bid was awarded the borough many men could be plac- ed to work there.
 It was also reported that efforts would be made to stage a boxing show for the benefit of the Nauga- tuck Unemployment Fund, Inc, or to stage 8 fair to which newcom-

DRIVE TO START OCT 3l

Arrangements for the big county wide rat banquet on Halloween, October 31 are almost completed. Raymond K. Clapp, New Haven County Farm Bureau Agent, re- ports that many persons are taking advantage of this opportunity to get rid of rats, and that orders for the special rat baits are pouring into his office.
 If everyone in the county having a rat infestation will cooperate in this campaign, many thousands of dollars will be saved by farmers and other persons. It is estimated that the labor of 100000 men is required every year to produce the food and property destroyed by rats in the United States. It is hoped that this campaign will reduce New Haven County's share of the $200,- 100000 loss each year in this coun- trv. In many of the campaigns con- ducted in New England, farmers have reported an average loss by rats of $40 a year. The use of spe- cial campaign baits seems to have been an excellent investment.
 The rat is~one of the most pro- life breeders among animals, hav- AAAS V SO " AtttCL6 O. year W1th du average of 10 young to- the litter. If one pair of rats were allowed to mbultiply at the normal rate of three years. and if all the animals lived, there would be 359,709,482 rats alive at the end of that period. No wonder that rats have spread over all the earth within a com paratively short time. The rapid multiplication of rats, as we'll as their migratory habit, makes it es- sential that everyone cooperate in this organized drive on October 31.
 Since the bait method is the most satisfactory way to kill rats, prepared baits will ,be mixed at a central point and distributed to eevry community in the country To three kinds of baits will be added the remarkable raticide, red squill. This material is relatively harmless to human beings, domestic animals, and poultry, but it very toxic to rats. It is the safest poison known to the U. s. Biological Survey, which is supervising this campaign. The regular combination package of thre kinds of bait provides suf- ficient material to cover the aver age farm or other property mak- ing 100 small baits. It is necessary simply to expose the baits accord ing to the directions on each pack age. This plan will make it very easy to get rid of rats at the low cost of fifty cents, as under a CO., operative arrangement each person using the baits will be asked to share the wholesale. cost of the materials.
 To obtain these baits 1t is neces- sary to order them in advance. Write Nor telephone your order to New Haven County Farm Bureau before October 24, and you will be advised where to call for the bait on the afternoon of October 29 to '31. If you wish your ratts to par take of this banquet, do not neg lect to order your baits right away. as these prepared baits at this low cost will not be available after the campaign.

Painful Piles
Go Quick-No Cutting-No Salve

Go Quick-No Cutting-No SaIves
 Itching, bleeding or protruding piles go quickly and don't come back. if you really remove the cause. Bad blood circulation in the lower bowel and ,hemorrhoidal veins causes piles by making the affected parts weak, f1abby, almost dead. Salves and suppositories fail because only an internal medicine that stimulates the circulation and drives out the impure blood can actually correct the cause of piles. Dr J. s. Leonhardt discovered a real internal Pile remedy. After prescribing it for 1000 patients with success in over 300 cases, he named it HEM-ROID.~ Apothe- carries Hall Co and druggists every- where sch HEM-ROID Tablets with guarantee they will, end your Pile misery or money back.

CALEB POWERS DEAD AT "a
Kentucky Member Of
Congress Figure In
CoebeI Feud

BALTIMORE, July 27.-The
body of Caleb Powers, who repre-
sented the Eleventh Kentucky
district four terms in Congress
after having twice been con-
victed of conspiracy in the MUIR
der of Gov. William Goebel in
1900, has been shipped to Nash
vile, Tenn.
Powers died at Johns Hopkins
Hospital Monday. He had been
a patient there four weeks, suf-
fering from cancer. He was 63
years old.
Powers spent eight years in a
pentitentiary following conviction
of conspiring in the murder.
After being pardoned he was
elected to Congress in 1910 and
reelected in 1912, 1914 and 1916.
Upon his retirement he was
named as assistant counsel to
the Shipping Board, a post he
held until his death.
His district is now represented
by Charles Finley, who was also
indicted for conspiracy in the
murder, which was one Of the
most sensational crimes in the
country and which almost pre-
cipitated the State into a civil
war.

County Officials to Contend
They Can Collect on
Two IndemnitieS

Recovery from bonding COM
panies of more than $45O,0OO
under which E. Wade Ball,
former Arlington county treas
uFer, was held while in office,
will be attempted within few
days by Lawrence Douglas,
Commonwealth attorney.
Ball is short 1854. .405 40 in his
accounts, an auditors report
filed yesterday at the courthouse
declares.
Arlington officials will contend
that two fidelity bonds, one now
in force for 100000 and a former
bond of $150,000 are both collect
able.
Moot Point in Law
This is moot point in the en-
tire case, according to lawyers,
who point out that courts may
rule the $150,o0O bond is not
collectable. The other bond will
be contested, Arlington officials
believe, but they are confident
they can recover on it.
If both bonds are collectable
and the figures of the auditors
are proven in court, the county
stands to lose $114,405.40. If only
the $500, 900 bond is collectable the
county will lose 1854, ,405 40.
In addition, the county will
have to pay the expenses Of the
audit which amounts to more
than $4,000.
Audits of the accounts of
William H. Duncan, former clerk
of the court, and F. Jasper Hal
lock, former clerk of the school
board, are to be made public
today, it was indicated by county
officials.

that Hallock was accountable for

was made of the Duncan short
