It is good for Presi- dent Wilson to have a full discussion of all things he has done, it is good for Candidate Hughes. And the only way an honest opinion can be formed among the people is for all the vari- ous points in the campaign to be brought out and fairly considered.

The island is in sight for some hours, and, if the steamer passes sufficiently close, a bold, rocky coast can be seen on which Roman outlook towers remain similar to those scattered along the south shores of Spain. The tourist seldom includes a trip to Sardinia in his trav- els, as neither of his advisers, Thomas Cook nor Baedcler, recommends it to him. 1It, however, is one of the few foreign fields that has not heen over- run and overfed by the tourist, and in many of the villages a traveler is still regarded as a guest and not as a prey to be pounced upon. ome day, when tourists are tired of taking the tours laid out for them by the guide-books, perhaps they will break away from the continent set sail for Sardinia, especially if they are not traveling just to enjoy hot comfor One can rent a good au- tomobile at Cagliari, and a week spent touring around the islana would probably leave the ple: cllections and an be remembered. “Sardinia can be reached by an cight hours’ night vovage from Civi- tavecchia, the nort of Rome, to the north end of the island.

COMMUNICATED A Political Soul Goes Through the Pearly Gates, and Then Is Weep- ing and Gnashing of Tecth. New Britain, Conn., Sept. 30, 1916. To the Editor of the Herald: In a morning paper I read with some interest and a great deal of amusement the valedictory of our old friend and former fellow townsman, John M. Brady, wherein he announces that he has at last seen the light and has forsaken the wiles, snares, and wickedness of the democratic party. he has become convinced that the light which has flickered and beckoned him into the political byways is in reality the real thing and he will in the future be comforted and warmed by the effulgence of its rays. Our ola friend at considerable length and 1 presume with his usual vehemence, details the indignities and abuses heaped npon him by the demo- cratic party during the past ten years; but it strikes me that either his memory or the memory of his chron- icler is much shorter than the mem ory of the voters of New Britain, and in all kindness I am tempted to sug- gest that my earliest recollection of Sonator Brady in democratic politics is of more t twentv-five years ago ana relates to the defeat of Philip J.
