The Government needs big can use them, but it would appear inadvisable to appoint a man like Mr. Roosevelt to an im- vital points, and to appoint him war post would be which is to be men, and portant position unless he can adjust his viewpoint to that of the Admin tration. It is difficult to imagine Mr. Roose- velt changing his opinion to conform with anybody else’s, and hence we cannot figure out just how the Gov- erment can find use for him. THE IRISH SITUATIO! Every Irishman in this country, if he be a true and loyal American, will condemn of an plot to land troops in Ireland.

The Hartford Sunday Globe prints a statement, commenting on the po- litical situation in the First Congres- sional district, and which makes this reference to the political talk among republicans. in New Britain: Down New Britain way they are trying to figure it out that because Mayor Quigley pulled through and Frank Hagarty was defeated there is nothing to it this fall but the nomination of Quigley for congress, and that he is the only man who can pos- sibly defeat Lomnergan. The wisdom of the republican sen- timent in New Britain does not ap- peal to the writer in the Globe, who says quite irreverently of it: This the sort of political dope and bunk for which the re- publican party is famous. Tt is the sort of political dope that has spelled defeat for it at the polls on so many occasions that a few people have lost count and do not care enough about it to try to post up. The friends of Mayor Quigl claiming that the delegates to his nomination will congressional convention. They that the delegates from the Seventh Senatorial district will be for him to a man. This district consists of eleven towns and is the largest in the county. While its delegates can- not control the convention it has a leader who cannot be disregarded. It is conceded that Mr. Quigley will have the votes from his own sena- torial district, which is co-extensive with the city of which he is the mayor. But this is reported to be the extent of the absolute strength of Mayor Quigley at the present time. It cannot be left out of the reckoning, but it is not sufficient to sccure the nomination for New Britain's execu- tive. It is known that a strong pres- sure is being brought to bear on the republican leaders of Hartford to favor the ambition of Mr. Quigley to represent the district in congress, but the leaders have not vet shown disposition to yield to it. Notwithstanding the discouraging effect ‘which the result of the recent city election has had in = republican quarters it is still probable that the republican candidate for this year in the First district will a resident of Hartford. Whoever he may be, and whatever part of the district he may hail from, the repub- lican nominee will lead a forlorn hope when he will have opposed to him, as the candidate of the democ- racy, the present congressman, Au- gustine Lonergan. ir are favor- control be AUTOS FIGURE IN SUNDAY MISHAPS Andrew Colchan Thrown From Team | And Breaks Leg—Several Minor Driving Mishaps.

The property is | known as the Muir estate, No. 53. It has a frontage of T et with a depth of 175 feet. There are two houses and barn upon the lot. The pric ked was $10,500. The church officers have been laok- ing for a desirable location for build- 1 ing a house of worship some time. | At the beginning of the vear the pas- tor proposed a forward movement in the purchase of a church property The people have loyally supported the movement. The result has been the selection of the Franklin Square site, which is considered ideal church purposes. William Atkinson, Henry C. Capen and the pastor, M S. Anderson were the committee em- powered by the church to buy the property. The purchase price was peid and the deed was transferred. The pastor made the announcement to his people yesterday at the morn- L ing service. The Emmanuel Gospel church was organized two years ago last March, after Rev. M. S. Anderson resigned the pastorate of the People’s church on Court street, and 125 of Mr. erson’s former parishioners withdrew and formed a new congregation and extended a call to their former pas- tor.
