He then touched briefly on Sheriff
Sidney E. Hawiey's record since he has
held office. which has been continuous.
iy since he deposed Robert iii. Clark-
llon. of Stratford.
.He told of the battles which he and
Hawiey had fought shoulder to ehould-~
or and said that the people of the coun-
try will again any to him through their
votes: “Well done. thou good and
faithful servant."
He then cited a letter from Freeman
F. Patton. the candidate for state trea-
surer, which pledged Mr. Patton to
honesty and integrity in office should
he be elected. Mr. Hill's keynote for
the present campaign was "Let there
be no trading of votes in this cam-
paign. Let. us all stand together as
Republicans and cast a vote that is
representative of the Republicans of
The Norwaiks."
Taking up the platform of the De-
mocratic party he picked it to pieces
and showed that almost every plank
has either been already accomplished
by the Republican party, or else re-
form measure is in the works and
soon to be completed.
The first feature of the Democratic
platform taken up by Mr. Hill was the
primary election plank. in which the
party advocates its adoption.
Mr. Hill showed that a Republican
legislature had already appointed a
committee to prepare a law regarding
primary elections and that the Repub~
lican constitution demands that the re-
port of this committee be adopted at
the next legislature.
“They are just two years behindathe
times on that." said Mr. Hill.
Taking still another plank of the
Democratic platform. demanding a
corrupt practices act, Mr. Hill showed
that the Republican legislature had al-
ready adopted a corrupt practices act.
and at the next session there will be
made in it such changes as are neces-
sary.
"They are just about two years he-
hind the times on that."
Another plullk of the platform dc.
mantis an economical business policy
in conducting the state's affairs.
To this. Mr. Hill rejoined that. the
debt of the state has in the last. ten
years been reduced from 63,000,000 to
$300,000 and the debt would have been
wiped out entirely hail it not been.

other public buildings, and this has
all been paid by taxes on corporations.
"In view of this state of affairs they

on that." said Mr. Hill_ I

fee system.” remarked Mr. Hill. I
Still another plank was taken up.
that of the election of Judges by the
people. '
Mr. Hill called attention to the fact
that the Democratic party has had two
plaforms his year. one writen by Wil-
lie 0. Burr. of Hartford. and Colonel
Norris (l. Osborn, of New Haven. and
the other written later by different peo
pie. The first platform called for the
election of judges of the supreme and
superior courts by the people. Upon]
this Thomas Waller put his foot down
and would not allow it. When the
platform was finally finished it simplyi
called for the election of municipal
judges.
Another feature was then taken up.‘
that of tile employerli‘ liability act
plank.
“The last Congress passed one and
again the Democrats are two years he-
bind the times and are practically left
without an issue. This was prac-i
tically admitted by Mr. Thayor in his
recent speech in Bridgeport when he
said that about the only issue is ‘Shsil
we have a change of administration
or‘remaln with corruption? i
"In view of his frequent visits to
William Randolph Hearst and ‘Bluc
Eyed Billy‘ Sheehan and in view of
the impossibility of a. change of ad-
ministration i think he will have to
remain with corruption."
Mr. Hill then took another feature
and asked the people how the election
is going to affect them.
Congressman lllll then proceeded to
show just how an election would sheet
the people of The Norwslka. and how
vttaily a change in administration
would be brought home to them. He
explained minutely the system of par-
ty government. and how the party aye-
Iem permeate the whole nbre of gov-l
ernmont. and by it is necessary, exu
plaining that from the time a move In
started in Congress until it is closed
and done it in the work of the party.
in this respect the speaker said that
a northern Democrat. is practically
powerless in Congress against the
overwhelming power of the Democrats
tram lilo solid Smith.
He showed that length of service
in Con-rose determines precedence in
the committees and in fact all through
Congress. and that the law of length
at service iii rigidly adhered to and
that precedence gives a man an oppor-
tunity to be useful to his country and
in his constituents.
He told how the day before the last
. session of Congress opened that a par-
iy caucus was held, and how the party
callous named the legislators who ware
and the work of the party caucuses
was ratified the next day in regular
session.

were no loss than 27,000 bills or differv
ent kinds introduced Congress
was in session lust (7.000 minutes;
Now as some nulls billa'mmbages
long Congress would not have me
even to read them al through it a
session. much less debate them. and
that It is necessary to dispose of them
in some other way. and weed out the
ones which are not necessary or are
bad policy. This is done by means
of committees to which the bills are
submitted and these committees dis-
pose of them.
Of the 27,000 bills introduced they
were winnowed out until all that were
acted upon were 8,989 bills. When
Mr, Hill first went to Congress there
were only about 10.000 bills introduc-
ed at a session and he pointed out
the rapid growth of the country, as avi-
denced by this fact. He further ii-
iustrated it by showing the growth of
the slot machine chewing gum sales
which ten years ago were unheard of.
while now there are annually 375,000..
000 one-cent packages of chewing gum
sold in the United States every year.
He then explained further the party
regulations. and he showed how the
sold South dominates the Democratic
party entirely and said: "There is
no such thing as decency of treatment
of a northern Democrat , in Congress,
glad themembers of committees and
lnority positions which naturally fall
to the Democratic party are all filled
with southerners, the proportion on
most committees being ii to 1 and in
many 6 to none.
Starting with a solid delegation of
100 Democrats in the House all that
would be needed to change the control
tiop. of 53 Congressman from the elec-
tlon‘ of 53 congrsemen. from the rest
of the country to bring about condi-
tions like those of 1804 when the Dem-
ocrats experimented with the tariff.
The stand pat idea evidently does
not appeal to Mr. Hill very strongly
and he explained the different msth~
ods by which taxes are raised. there
being three means, an import tax. an
export tax and an internal tax and he
gave instanceeof countries which have
them. elaborating along that line and
showing the benefits of a protective
tariff in the protection of American
workingmcn and American industries.
He took occasion to take a rep at
our inconsistency in dealing with the
Philippines. We rule that. they must
pay an export. tail to every country
in the world except us. and then said
be: “We are so conteniptibly menu
that we set. up a tariff wall and claim
that they are not a part of our terri-
tory. Nations ought to be honest and
decent and that. is not." said he with
much fervor.
Having exceeded what he intended
to say a bit in vehemencc be said:
“i get a little angry when i think of
'that."
Great, Britain, which is supposed to
be a free trade country, collects prnc~
iicaily all its.revcnuc front the heavy
taxes imposed on a few articles and
he showed how it is that England must
allow free trade. in territory she is
not as large as North and South Dar

on the islands to feed them so it is
necessary to allow free imports. This
in turn robs many people of their post
tions and there is a tremendous army
of unemployed there. Fully one half

land and Wales 900.000 paupcrs.
“l traveled eight hundred miles
through England and did not see a sin-
gle new factory or a single new house
being erected. The country is living
on its acculilulations in the past. and
its money is being invested in busi—
nesses which are in countries where
the business is protected.
There it is impossible for man to
work and here it is impossible to get
men enough to do the work.
Mr. Hill said that he had telephoned
to four different factories in The Nor-
iwulks and found that in October. 1800,
their payroll was 630.800. willie for
this liionill It has been $82,112.
The people of ihe Norwalks are re-
cciving annual] about $3,000,000 per
year which is {1.700.000 iuorc than
they were getting ten years ago.
The national debt today is 6220 less
per cuplta than it was at the beginning
of the Spanish war and iii the some

better food and more of it. than ovtli‘
before; they are sending their cliilil«

penny of tax because they are things
which we needed in this country and
do not have to pay it duty and notwith-
standing thia vast amount of imports
there has not a man lost a day's work
because of them.
Mr. Hill discussed the bluff for some
time more and then spoke about emi-
gration. He said that he was not
sure but that there ought to be some
restriction placed upon immigration.
but thought that after all it might be
just as well to have them come to this
country and share our burdens than
to stay at home and flood us with cheap
made goods.
The matter of wages in other coun-
tries was then touched upon briefly
and he showed that batters in England
receive 66 and 68.75 per day and that
wages are from 50 to 600 per cent
higher here than in England. He da-
fended the tariff from the consumer's
point of view and explained why some
goods can be sold more cheaply abroad
than here yet manufactured here. This
is not the work of the tariff. lie alleged.
but the work of the trust.
in speaking of foreign expilris he
said that when in England it, did his
heart. to see Msthewson's
shoes sold there.
in closing. Mr. Hill made a parting
rap at the trusts saying that they are
dominated and controlled by Napoleon
of Finance.
No corporation is too big for me if it
is properly capitalised and the money
paid in but, the time has nearly crime

FIRE HOUSES iMPROVED.
New Electric Door Openers Installed
at Putnam Hose and Old Well
Quarters.
Councilman William R. Thompson
has just perfected and installed a most
ingenious scheme for opening the
doors of the stalls of the horses in the
Fire Department. The apparatus is
electrically operated and is similar in
some respects to a large telegraph in-
strument. it can her rates from
push buttons located at fluent parts
of the building and is so speedy that
by pushing a button in the bunk room
the horses are released and are at
their posts before the driver can get
down stairs.
The electricity through an electric
magnet releases a little drop and a
weight is also released which operates
a series of rods and levers which cause
the doors to swing open as if a cannot
ball had struck them. The apparatus
has alreedy been installed in Old Well
Hook and Ladder Company's quarters
and is a great success. and inventor
Thompson is installing it in Putnam
Hose Company's quarters today. The
service is far superior to anything of
the kind yet produced.
