g3 WESTERLY PLANT'S FIRST SHIPMENT Textile Company Sends Off 100,000 Yards of Special Fabric +—Audience Enjoys Telling Scotch Wit and Trill of John Anderson—Town Council Makes Haste Slowly—Un- fortunate Woman Committed to State Farm. fhe posted placards, “John Ander- son, ;:io‘.e.' i: "H'.lobernl&n hall, Tues- day e at 7.80. h‘lz. Me’s & bonnle good Scotchman —for men only,” recelved response from quite a number of men inter- ested ?n the restoration of Westerly to the mo-license column. Mr. Ander- son is a resident of Cambridge, a contributor to the Christian Endeavor ‘World) and is in the regular employ of the Massachusetts Anti-Saloon league, being classed among the best speakers in the service. Mr. Anderson prides himself as be- ing a typical Scotchman, with the burr that never wears off, and has the wit and characteristics of his race, which, with his ability and forceful- ness, makes him an attractively pleas- ing s orator. He is leafned In all that to the temperance ques- tions, and has made the no-license topic & # ty for geveral years. Therefore he had no difficulty in firing ‘hot shots of figures and facts into the license camp. He, of course, told of the degradation ang crime caused by rum and painted word pictures of the good effects of no-license as against ‘the horrors resulting from licedse. He told how the license laws were strict- .i enforced in Massachusetts, and how the same could be done in Westerly. He) pfled argument upon ument lcense, and spoke of the sys- effort being made in Westeny Mmphvalmd ‘tu ttjn ntmoral condtité;n 8 imatie success al e ':nxt Tuesday. During his in- ting address reference was made to the kitchen barrooms, which he described as almost as far reaching for all that is against good govern- ment as 18 the licensed salcon. He the strict enforcement of the lquor laws in any event, whether the town went back Into its own in the no-license column or strayed away from the path that leads to salvation. Mr. Anderson visited Westerly upon i * invitation of the no-license commit- tee, which is working on a systematic basis against the continuance of lig- wor license in the town. Other speak- will visit Westerly before eléction , and next Sunday there will be sermons in favor of no-license in most of the churches. ! . The taxpayers of Westerly, d of a general improvement of ! gh- ways, when assembled at the annual town meeting, made, in ad- to the regular appropriation, several special appropriations for highway improvement; but as yet the . members of the town council have ' made mo ‘move towards carrying out the expressed wish of the taxpayers, Provision was made for the exten- slon of the granite block pavement in Main street, from School to Cross street, but so far as known the high- ‘way committee has made no move to- ward having the work done, either by the street department under the di- rection of the highway commissioner or by comtract. Provision was also made for macadamizing the highway from the Bradford station to the Hop- kinton line, but there has been mnoth- ing' doing in that line. A citizen of Westerly, who 18 a heavy taxpayer, argues that a vote of the town m should be construed as an order to town council. He said that about four years ago provision was fully made for a change in grade . of Union street for its entire length, . wid al from Main to Broad streets, but noth- ing has been done. Subsequently the . council voted to change the grade from the crest of the hill to Broad atreet in order to conform to the grade line of the new town building and courthouse, which carrled with it the idening of Union street seven feet t its junction with Broad street and on & seven per cent. grade. The ex- tension of the building is completed and thé ¢oping of the lot placed in the front and cormer, but there has e ——————— SUMMING UP - THE EVIDENCE Many Norwich People Have Been Called As Wif.nglul._ ‘Week after week has been published the testimony of Norwich people— kidney sufferers — backache victims— people who have endured many forms of kidney, bladder or urinary disor- ders. These witnesses have used Doan’s Kidney Pills, All have given their enthusiastic approval. It's the same everywhere. 30,000 - American men and women are publicly recom- mending Doan's—always in the home papers. Isn't it a wonderful, convine- ing mass of proof? If you are a suf- ferer your verdict must be “Try Doan’s first.” Here’s one more Norwich case. Daniel Donoghue 193 West Main Street, Norwich, Conn., says: *“I can , recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills highly. I had severe pains in the small of my back, across my kidneys, and my back ‘was very lame. Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured at N. D. Sevin & Son's Drug Store, rid me of my trouble in a short time and I therefore cannot 8peak too highly of them.” ‘For sale by all dealers.

Saves Leg of Boy. “It seemed that my 14 year old boy would have to lose his leg on account of an ugly ulcer, caused by a bad bruise,” wrote D. F. Howard, Aquone, N.

He also referred to the inactivity in relation to the paving of the Westerly section of the Broad street bridge, in keeping with the pavement of that portion of the bridge in the village of Pawcatuck. Provision was made for this work three or four years ago. Mrs. Anna Phavenent, recently di- vorced and custody of children given to their father, has become so discour- aged and disheartened that she was desirous of entering some state insti- tution, where she might have rest and recuperate’ her failing witality. Tuesday night she was taken Into custody by the police. In order to get the woman into a state institu- tion, where she could receive proper care and treatment, it was essential that she be committed. She was ar- raigned in the Third district court Wednesday and pleaded guilty to be- ing an idle person. She was sentenced to serve six months at the state farm. Mrs. Lizzie Hutchings Coggswell and daughter Susie of Los Angeles, Cal., are guests at the residence of C. B. Coon, 4 Elm street. Mrs, Coggswell was a former resident of Westerly, daughter of William Hutehings, who had a music store in High street. She was musically inclined, and, when a girl, sang in {ocal concept and church choir, and her father fréquently play- ed the violin in orchestra. Mrs, Coggs- well finished her musical education abroad and became a singer of con- siderable note. Soon after her mar- riage she moved to California, al- though she has resideq at intervals in New York where her two daughtesg received a musical education, one as a singer who is now on the concert stage and the other, Susie, as violin- ist, has become quite proficient. In order that she may be even more accomplished, she ig to take a course of instruction from s master of the instrument in Europe. Mrs. Coggs- well and daughter Susie will leave ‘Westerly for Boston, Wednesday, and sail for Liverpool on the steamship Bohemia. They will remain abroad until the young lady completes her course of instruction. Local Laconics. The new Westerly Textlle company made its first shipment of 100,000 vards of special fabric Wednesday. ‘Mrs. Samuel H. Davis entertained the members of the college club on ‘Wednesday afternoon at her home in Granite street, The local fire companies and the P. S. Barber hose company of Pawca- tuck, will unite in a parade this eve- ning and then be entertained by the Rhogde Island Ones. Just thirty-two of the bullmoosers went to Norwich to hear Johnson and one of the local leaders declared that about one-eighth of the party vote in Westerly was represented. The pre-election work on the liquor license question is one-sided in West- erly, but the license adherents are of the opinion that the active work of opponents will not bring the desired results. Mrs. Mary A. Whyte, who with her husband, Thomas Whyte, came to Westerly five weeks ago, died sudden- ly Tuesday at her home in Oak street, age 32. Besides her husband, she leaves an infant five days old. Mr. Whyte is a stone cutter and has no relatives in this country. At the annual meeting of the Peo- ple’s Mission, these officers were elect— ed: Mrs. Leroy Farnsworth, super- intendent; Miss Langworthy, assistant superintendent; Miss Florence Wheel- er, secretary; 'Miss Elizabeth Dower, treasurer; Miss Lena Wheeler, or- ganist; Miss Langworthy, superinten- dent of cradle roll; Miss Webster and Miss Perry assistants, LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Warning for Veters. Mr. Editor: The cry of frauds, of the injustice of the tariff, and the wide range of appeal of the charlatan for a change brought the change, and the day after election brought loss of con- fidence and the dawn of the first day of the awful calamity known as th: Panic of 1893, ‘Why not? The radicals would seon be in the saddle, Everyone knew this meant an cverturning of conservative - business methods. The protective tariff which had done so much to build up the country’s industries was to be torn to shreds. Why not? Manufacturers could not know where they were, as they must work one and two years in advance of consumption. No one knew or could guess where values and prices would be in six months or a.year. Business cannot live on uncertainty, and factories all over the land closed down. Millions of laboring men were thrown out ,?é em- ployment, and like a mad prairie fire destruetion reached out to railroads, steamships, banks, mines, whoiesalers, retailers, farmers—all must and did suffer. Confidence, the basis of all business, was gone, and ruin and dis- izf;_er and poverty followed in its in, The above from a republican cam- paign circular sums up the whole thing in a splendid manner. In my own way I have tried in the past few weeks to warn the younger voters who do not remember the dark days of Wilsonism and mayhap arouse some of the older ones also. There is only one issue before the people today—What will You do with prosperity? I have no time to answer ladies who are non- voters—but will say I certainly do wish they had the right to be in ev- ery one of the states where they do vote. The defeat of Wilsonism is a certainty—so allowed by the democrats themselves. Neither have I time for men who should be voters, and tell their neigh- bors they have not voted in 15 years. The fight is about over, and in Con- necticut it has been won.

McORMICK, 30 Franklin Strz: B vancement can say or do will defeat Hon. John P. Studley for governor; and no political cunning can defeat Hon. W. A. King for congress. There is one, and only one. danger, and 'that danger is fast growing less. There"is still a possible chance for enough ar- dent admirers of Colonel Roosevelt iu cast their votes for hipn at the ex- pense of the man who hks in the past two years stood so manfully between the people and democratic free trader’ As a last warning I beseech you, one and all {to vote early, vote a cross a; the head of the second column of can- didates, and don’'t make a cross on any other part of the ticket. The great danger, is carelessness. In the election just passed in Plainfield nearly 200 voters made mistakes; and no matter how smart you are there is grave danger the moment you try to split a ticket. What , appears easy ! enough to the better educated voter, or one who has thoroughly looked up the law, appears very differently to » man whose only political work is done election day. At the election ten years ago I was one of those who instructed, voters how to fold gnd mark their baliot. Ons school teacher was sent back three times: In another town near Nor- wich one of the men who helped pass the law told me he lost his own vote. So you see there is graye danger in irying to split. There is but one safe way to vote and that is a cross in the republican/ circle, which means Con- necticut for Taft, Connecticut. for Studley, Connecticut for congressmen who are not free traders, and Connec- ticut for a legislature controlled by the party that in this state passed the weekly payment law, the ten hour and other shortening of hours laws, the party that has made every labor law that we have on our books, not only here, but in every state in New Eng- land. Did you ever think of that, dear reader? Not a single iaw to benefit the workingman, to impreve schools, to benefit the people in any way, has ever been passed in the past quarfer of a century of labor advancement ex- cept by republican votes! t Never mind if I did vote for Bryan. I never did it when he advocated free trade. Never mind if T did vote for Bryan. Bryan never claimed to be a trust buster whilc governor of a state that is promoter and protector of more ‘trusls than any other state in Amer- lca. Woodrow Wilson Is now, and al- ways has been, an enemy of the pro- tective tariff. The great business of Connécticut does now, and always has, owed its great prosperity to that same protective tariff. Vote the straight republican ticket and you will nol have to feel after election “The sad- dest word of tongue or pen, it might have been, it might have been!” C. B. MONTGOMERY. Packer, Conn., Oct. 30, 1912, Obscuring the Issue. Mr. Editor: What is the real issue before the voters of Norwich today? Does it comsist in a choice between several candidates? No, not chiefly. The men nominated for the highest office in the nation are all good men. They may have their faults, and so do you and 1. But that they are hon- estly striving to accomplish the best things no semsible and well informed person can doubt. What, then, do we do when we vote for one of them? We vote for what that candidate stands for, and for what stands behind him. If we wish that the rule of the bosses, together with class legislation, be con- tinued, we may vote the regular re- publican ticket. If we wish to make a hopeless effort to rout out the rule of the bosses, with a good man at the head, we may vote the democratic ticket. If we wish to bring back to, the people themselves the government | of this nation, with one of the strong- est men in the world as our Jeader, we may vote the progressive ticket. There is not the slightest doubt that the prohibitionists embody in their platform, and in their effort, justice, | humanity, righteousness, and real pub- | lic welfare, far beyond that of any of | the other parties. But, with such a| government as ours, what can be ac- complished by the effort? Practically, that is the whole question. The all- important matter of temperance legis- lation is dodged by the republican and the democratic candidates for govern- or of this state. The progressive can- didate meets the question fairly as far | as he goes. JOHN OTIS BARROWS. Norwich Town, Oct. 30, 1912, IMPRISONMENT A JOKE IN REBATING CASES Than Two Hours Each.
