Hi Is Elected Mayor.—A Turkey Feed ‘Wtihout the Turkey. Everyone in the While a black and white orchestrs perspired, while all the sentimental songs popular in the last decade were “sung” and while Thomas (“Tippy") Fay orated from the platform, the Expressmen’s union, Ink., held forth in Bardeck’s hall last evening at one of thelr big turkey suppers. Alas, the turkey existed only in the fertile im- agination of the Hon. “Tippy.” of other good things there were aplen- ty and all ‘orie had to do to get some wae to sit. quietly. while the waiters passed through the throng. The big speaker of the candidate for the republican nomina- tion for mayor. Next to the headliner came a dazzling array of lesger stars, scme of whom showed their luster dimmed by old Father Time, . It wi a three-ring circus with sideshow and) street parade attached. Seated on the platform with Candlt dete Steele were John H. Sauter, Johnl J. Barry, Herbert Bates, Stephen ‘Ro: per, President Fay, Secretary Jnhq Farrell und James Farrell. German Band Not Welcome. 3§ Before the festivities opened somes one corralled a German street band and tried to hypnotfze the Hon. “Tip. Py’ into engaging it for the evening “Let them guys into this hall?"” quer- ied President Fay in disgust. “Nig nix on the imported music. - What do I care if the tariff is off?” As a substitute for the Gei band the black-and-white orch furnished what was alleged to e music. The orchestra consisted of Mart'n Gurley, pianist, Henry Gurley, bass drummist and snareist, “Tom' McGovern, violinist, ‘and Patrick Dig- on, clarinetist. When . Candidaty Steele entered the hall the orchestta struck up a tune. It was rumorsd later in the evening that the ‘“Ster Spangled Banner” was the selection. It might have been that or “Come Kiss Yo’ Honey, Ba-a-by.” You can seanch us. The program was opened by J Farrell, who introduced Presldem as the master of ceremont 8 “ py” strode to the front of the pWt- L|'form he waved his arm and- was immediate attention as all realised that a political gem was about to fbe placed on exhibition. % i Expressmen Paid for Becr. | “For the benefit-of a few doubthg Thomases I want to say that the pressmen will be a factor in the com- ing election and all elections to fol- low,” said “Tippy” jumping right'ifito ‘his subject with both feet. ‘““The pressmen are the poorest paid prof sion in the world and that ain't ho Ye.” President Fay referred to a' stite- ment published in the Herald . last night in which it was said that he and a candidate for office had fallen out because the candidate refused to pay for six dozen hottles of beer consumed at the last blowout of the expressmien. “The beer drank at our times has been paid for and we ain’t got noth- | ing against the candidates referred to,” sald President Fay. “You guys all know that it's against the law for any candidate for office to pay for {x:toxications. And another thing, it was ten dozen bottles and not std dozen, ' as the paper stated, If you don’t believe the expressmen paid for it go down stairs and ask the wo- prietor.

I Know why we got shipped out of Central park.” Why den't them gents come out and tell us Wwhy we were drove off the park? (Here the speaker stamped h.

We got something on them guys. Den’t blame the police, they're acting for the ‘'men higher up. “Now, gents, I've spoken my little piece. I've left my little challenge right here. I'm going out on April 14 with a lassoo and an axe and I'm going to get in a lot of republican votes. You might as well throw your Votes in the dump. as cast them for th'e hesd of the democratic ticket.” President Fay again criticized the candidates for the republican nomina- tion for tax collector. “Here's a guy (Mr. Steele) going out for a $1,200 a vear job and he comes and talks to us,” he said. ‘““And tkere’s them fellows going out for a 200 per year and do not take Substitutes or Imitations sarii HORLICK'S eSS MALTED MlLK ade In the largest, best ° FjoiHealths Sake ipped and sanitary Malted Milk plant In the worid ‘We do not make “milk products”— Skim Milk, Condensed Milk, etc. But the OFig inal-Genuine HORLICK’S MALTED MILK Made from pure, full-cream milk and the extract of select malted grain, reduced to powder form, soluble in water.

We were willing to pay. They had the power to make us, why didn’t they? “How was it they gave us a stand after we hired a lawyer, couldn’t they have given us the same stand the day they put us off the Park? “Why was one of our members ar- rested? Why were we all threatened with arrest? Why did some of them 8o out of their way to keep us on the move? “Why did they stop giving us city work nearly three years ago? Ask yourself these eight questions, brothers and see if yvour conscience will bother you for enrolling as a republican. Vote for Republican Mayor. “Brothers and friends, as election day is only two weeks away, I want to impress upon your minds what this organization expects and demands of every man, of you we expect you, first, to go to the republican city caucuses and vote, second: We not only waut your vote on election day, but we want to have you induce your father, your sons and your friends as well to vote the way you are going to. Re- member men, 10 votes kept George Hull from beécoming mayor of Bristol three years ago, and on the other hand don’t forget that Mayor Donovan of Meriden won on ten votes last fall, and always bear in mind that your vote no matter how humble you may be, counts just as much as the biggest man’s in the city. We are not go- ing to ask you to vote for any one only the head of the republican ticket, you can split the rest of your ticket any way you see fit, use your own Judgment. There are going to be good men running on the democratic ticket for the smaller offices, they are worthy of your vote and if you are a democrat, give it to them, we have nothing against any of them, but the man that heads the democratic ticket. Personally he has not done us any wrong, but the men he puts in office have, they are our enemies, and in order to get them we have got to got the man that put them in office, and we are going to too, don’t forget that the democrats are going to get swamped under this election, they haven’t got a 'Chinaman’s chance’ of winning."” John Sauter, the next speaker, erit- jcized the enemies of the expressmen for trying to put them out of bus- iness. He urged them to go to the caucus and cast their ballots for Mr. Steele. James Sheridan sang a song and | then- Mr. Steele was imtroduced by. the “Tippy” as “a prince of good fellows.” Candidate Steele's Speech. Mr. Steele spoke as follows: “It is indeed a pleasure ta me to, be granted the privilege of coming before you this evening, and being given an opportunity to briefly state my ideas in regard to our city gov- ernment. It is not my intention, or my purpose, - to criticise any of the past experiences of the city govern- ment. My only aim is the future, and what I will do if the voters of New Britain see fit to place me in the mayor’'s chair, “After fifteen years' experience in the city government, I feel that it is in no way egotistical for me to say that 1 can appre- ciate the needs of the city far more than people who have not had these experiences. Therefore, gentle- men, I say that the city of New Brit- ain wants a_business administration, and if elected I shall give a business administmtl@ without fear or favor, and shall use the office of mayor for the best interests, as I see . it for each and every taxpayer and citizen of New Britain. Business Man, No Orator. “It has been said, and justly so, that I am not an orator, but I do claim to be a business man, having made a success of every business I have undertaken. I earnestly believe that the people placed on the differ- ent commissions of the city should be considered from their experience and ability, and not by their political pull or financial standing. Therefore, gentlemen, if you are looking for a business administration for your city, and run on the same principles as our successful industries have been | built up from their very foundations, vote for me, but if on the other hand if you are looking for an ad- ministration by someone who will consider friends or influences do not vote for me, for if I am elected I can say most frankly that the people whom it becomes my duty to appoint will be people who in my judgment are the most fitted for the position, regardless .of their political or finan- cial influences, and who ¢an save the most for the taxpayers. Dividends for Tax Payers. “I shall endeavor as far as possible to handle the city affairs the same as the successful business man or manufacturer' handles his business. Not to get votes, but to get dividends for the stockholders, and when I say dividends for the stockholders, I mean and consider the tax payers of New Britain as stockholders, and to. save for them every dollar possible, which certainly means dividends. While there may be certain interests that will not be in favor of my candidacy, I can say most sincerely that I have no feeling whatever against any creed, nationality, or interests, and ‘while I am a republican born and bred, if elected mayor I Shall feel that each and every voter has a perfect right to look to me for a fair and impar- tia]l business administration, and I will exhaust every effort to give it to them. “I understand that it has been said 1 us.

This is perfectly true, as by leaving the tax collector’s office, which compels be to give by’ undi- vided attention, I have secured a po- sition which will return to me a much higher salary than the tax of- fice, and which I feel in duty bound to accept. But I am not by any means compelled on account of this position to neglect the city affairs in the least, and I pledge myself to the voters of New Britain, one and all, that if elected I will give every hour of my time to the city that is neces- sary for the best interests of New Britain, “Therefore, gentlemen, if you want a business administration and the eity government handled on strictly busi- ness lines, vote for me. On the other hand, if you do not care for this, use your own judgment, and vote for whom you wish. “In conclusion I wish to say that 1 have not a word against the past administrations of the city. Neither have I a word to say against any can- didate who opposes me. that the voters carefully consider be- fore casting their votes at the caucus or at the election,~and govern them- selves accordingly.” More of That Music. A vaudeville program closed the af- fair. Gunner Anderson sang Best in the House Is None Too Good for Riley” and “My Pearl’s a Bowery Girl.” Tom Lauder McGovern sang “In Our Back Yard Last Night.” This was followed by the rendition of “Somebody’s Waiting for Me,” by Pat. rick Caruso Dixon, Jr. The “some- one” referred to in the song was not any grand opera scout looking for talent. Mr. Dixon rendered a few niore songs in the course of the even- ing. Fred Kitson sang “Sweet Eileen” and then President Fay announced a short intermission for refreshments. “And remember,” he sald, “there’ll be no crowding when the eatables and drinkables are served, Everyone keep out of that back room.” The eatables must have gone out to lunch as they failed to show up. In order to keep the audience in a state of expectancy, James Farrell an- rounced: “The next number on the program will be Oscar Dangerfoot, the gun manipulator, in rative costume, 21l rights reserved.” ' Oscar must have gone out with the eatables, as he failed to put in an appearance. After intermission Roy Scofield sang “There’s a Pretty Spot in Ire- land.” Patrick Dixon, Sr., mounted the rostrum to give a solo on his fa- mous E flat clarinet. He was forced to quit when he was half through his selectlon, as he confessed that the clarinet tickled his lips and he could not continue, Other song birds who warbled were John O'Neil, who broke down when he tried to hit the high note in “Where the River Kanmere Flows,” and John Mahoney. The lat- ter started to sing, but the orchestra could not follow him, so he broke into a dance, which was a combigation of the buck and wing, a tango and a Gaby Deslys siip. Then came the grand old man, “Micky” Campbell, who did a toe dance. Other artists, too numerous to mention, assisted in the program. EXPEDITION POSTPONED. Captain Roald mundsen Will Not Cruise to Arctic Regions Till 1915. San Francisco, April 1.—Captain Roald Amundsen, discoverer of the South Pole, has postponed until 1915 the expedition to the Arctic regions he had planned to make this sum- Hijs vessel, the Fram; has been delayed on its journey from Colon, and cannot reach San Francisco in time to be fitted out for the start that was to have been made in July. Henry Lund, the Norwegian con- sul here, has received word from Cap- tain Amundsen, who is in Europe, that the expedition will not set out until next summer.

Lockett, Barrett and Palmer Sure— Two Bid for Other Place. New York, April 1.—Information received from Madrid, where the English polo team is practising for the international match with Amer- ica, is to the effect that the team is pretty nearly decided on. Capt. Vivian Lockett, back of the last team that came in quest of the cup, will again play in that position, with Capt. Bar- rett, No. 3, and Capt. Palmer, No. 2. The No. 1 is still in doubt, with Capt. Tomkinson and Capt. Lannowe both candidates. It is expected that the team will leave for this country on May 1 and the British hopes of success have grown because of the excellent prac- tice of men and ponies. There were seventy ponies in the string at Mad- rid, and these will be culled to fifty of the best to be shipped to this country. The Britishers consider it a good omen that the stiff work at Madrid has been conducted without a single accident. The men have be- come accustomed to each other’s style of play, and in this respect will be much more forward than Ilast vear's téam, which had no work of any consequence before coming to America.
