The newest rumer is that he is being con- sidered for the portfolio of postmaster ! general in the cabinet of Mr. Harding after the Ohio editor takes up the dutfes of president. The question which natural pre- | sents itself is: Has J. Henry Roraback of New Canaan and the Allyn House been consulted? J. Henry claims no little share of credit far the tremen- dous republican victory in Connecticut last Tuesday. If memory serves, he gave an interview in which he ascrib- ed the sweep to the pure patriots whom he has so zealously led along the paths of political virtue since he has been dictator in the cammon- wealth of Connecticut. In fact, his statement was considered of such import that it was printed under a | two col of the * | fondly referred ! “our wet nurse.” | So it can be seen that back's opinion on which Is sometimes to by republicans as Mr. Rora- cabinet selections | accepted with much.selaaming and v-ing of the knee. It seems but yes- terday that Mr King erstwhile lord of the Fairfieldfief, was assidously applying his every endeavor to break Mr. Roraback’'s political legs. This may not be literally true, of course, but his occupation was of that pleas- ant nature, which should rightfully be war-taxed under the head af amuse- ments, an occupation in which he dis- played ¥nuch zest and verve, if you get what we mean. "Twas at a banquet, or something, when he hurled his mailed glove at | the feet of Mr. Roraback and bade him pick it up if he dared. Well, to make a long story short. Henry dared and since then the Roraback and King families have been sticking out their respective tangues at each other. Along conies the boom for Mr. King for membership in President Hard- ing’s official family, a job which would afford much pleasure inasmuch as it would enable him to read all the pic- ture pastal cards that flood the mails during the summer. Thus far the boom has not given any signs of pass- ing through the puling, anemic stage of imfancy, but you never can tell, be- cause many a baby that has been given up as too sweet for this world has developed inta a piano or a pro- fessional weight lifter. There will be many claims for recognition from states which helped swell the tide of victory for the Grand Ola Party and Mr Harding and his confereres wifl have a delicate task to appease the appetites of all thase who come knocking-at the back door with piteous pleas for “Something to eat for a poor ol'’ man who hasn’t et nothink since 1912, Kind Lady.” Per- haps Connecticut will be fortunate enough to land something big, like a cabinet job, but if Mr. Roraback runs true to form it will not be for John T. King. see A5 the democratic party emerges from the debris of what hit it last Tuesday and begins to take inventory of its lacerations and bruises, the thoughts of the leaders naturally turn to an analysis of the day's happen- ings. To the political progeny of Thomas Jefferson the effect is plainly obvious. What they are now interested in is the cause. E It seems to be the consensus of thase who have been interrogated that the cause can be nailed down to one thing—the people wanted a change In proof of their theory they point to the big vote rolled up against Con- gressman Lonergan in New Britain, community which gave him a hand- some margin only two years ago when he was a candidate for the House of Representatives even though at that time he was runping against a “favor- ite son,” George A. Quigley. Their de- ductions are supported by events in other parts of the state, especially | Hartford, where an anticipated Lon- ergan wave turned upon and inundat. ed him, Certainly no democrat had | brighter prospects than Gus Lonergan, | whose record in the lower house has been clean and shows the effect of in- dustry. Other analyists are convnced that the strength shown by Senator Bran- degee was due to the fact that women voters, through inexperience, were ignorant of how to split the ticket and pulled over the republican lever, giving their vote to the senator, there- by extending him a majori though less than those won by other candi- dates on the republican ticket. There is na doubt among close ob- servers of politits that the League of Nations was instrumental in helping to pile up such a big republican ma- | jority in New Britain. Whether the arguments of G. O./P. orators were | invalid or irrelevant has nothing to do with the case. The fact remains ath- | wart the path of reasoning that the League of Nations was the big issue locally and the muititudes turned | their thumbs down. | Among rumors which have reach- ed the ears of local democracy is one dealing with the apathy of certain leaders in other sections of the state. In one large city known for its leaning toward democricy, it is sald that the influential democrats expended very | little energy toward promoting the | interests of the candidates. Their at- | titude, it ix said. was based on the ! fallure of one of them to secure a | place on the state ticket or to be se- | lected as candidate for senator. This much is certain: Democracy, as it expresses the beliefs of a polit cal element, is breathing very faintly. Whether it recovers from the shock of the beating it took is a matter af | some doubt. Perhaps a fickle electo , ate will about face four years ! hence and give the republican party just such a thumping. But t| is only wery dim possibility. | | THE OBSERVER MAKES RANDOM O3SERVATIONS — ON — THE CITY AND ITS PEOPLE. A on the front page : should not be scorned, but should be . By ROBERT ! Most of the trouble is produced by those who don’t produce anything clse.

This is reflected in the attendance at Sunday afternoon games and in the number of telephone in- quiries received at the Herald office ! every Saturday night when the scores are received. While New Britain has always dem- onstrated a live and healthy interest in all kinds of sport, old abservers say that they never knew of a year when so much attention seemed to be focussed on the zridiron, and they are at a loss (o account for it. Foatball is heroic, more than any other kind of contest requiring mental and physical skill, and perhaps it is | because we have unconsciously turned to hero worship in the past fow vears that we place football on such a high pedestal. Foatball players are required to un- dergo a period of rigorous training that quickly discourages those without the necessary stamina. This is parti- cularly true in the case of college elevens whose members must deny themselves many worldly pleasures in order to make their minds alert and their muscles responsive and strog. Of course this is true also to a certain extent with candidates for other teams but with the possible ex- ception of rowing none other holds aut so few allurements—or such great rewards.
