Delivers Strong Talk
at Hotel Davenport
Gathering -— Many
from Up-State
175 PRESENT
Dinner Tendered by
Stamford Democrat-
ic Town and City
Committee
BTMAFORD. Dec. 18.—-
Hon. Homer 8. Cummings. Stam-
ford's most prominent citizen and
statesman. delivered a brief but
spirited address to approximately 175
men and women. at. a dinner last
vnight in the Hotel Davenport. tender-
ed him by the Democratic Town and
City Committee.
Mr. Cummings dwelt but lightly
upon present conditions of the politi-
cal World in his extemporaneous ad-
dress.
It was not a partisan gathering
that was present at the Hotel Daven-
port to pay Mr. Cummings tribute.
many of both parties from New Ha-
ven. Bridgeport. Danbury and Nor-
walk being there. He singled some
of them out for special mention in
the fore part of his address. causing
laughter that prevented him Eontin-
uing until it had subsided.
“In the language of a. great Hiber-
nian orator." said Mr. Cummings in
starting his speech. “I see faces that
I know well."
This remark followed by mnny
unusual anecdotes; kept the guests
in a. conilmmUs uproar during the
greater part of his address.
"Most of my time." he said, "has
been spent in the minority. and it
seems good to know that I have some
friends."
"Politics is an uncertain business."
said Mr. Cummings, "it brings you
into touch with all sorts of people
and all kinds of conditions. but it
enables us to test the loyalty of our
friends. As I ldok about the tables
in front of me 1 can see many who
went through fire together."
He thcn called attention to Mr.
George Gordon Battle, of New York
City. whom he called a life-long
friend who came "all the way from
Sew York to be in attendance."
The Right to Aspire
Mr. Cummings mentioned the fact
that some newspapers throughout
the Sum: uanlcd to linow “why he
was here." and if he had "announc-
ed his candidacy at yet." He said
that anybody has a right to aspire.
“There \are many Republicans
present and this meeting should be
great experience for them. They
will learn the truth. They never
get out of life the thrill that We
Democrats do." he continued. "To
be a Democrat is to be engaged in
n. lifc-long adventure. Anybody
can be a Republican." said Mr.
Cummings amid great laughter.
Parties are means through- which
good is operated. They are agencies.
When they become unsuitable and
don't measure up1to that standard
Lhcy have failed." said Mr. Cummings
on the more serious side of his ad-
dress. “in the year of 1912, when
:;1.- Democrats on e into power. the
political lllol‘fllf)‘ the country was
low. It needed a cleansing. and in a
brief time the Democrats were able
to put through domestic legislation

“Tho war came on—snd it was

of the pLOlllC to the mountain-tops.
They made a record that is glorious
