NOMINATION voters QUIGLEY'S About half the of the clty decided yesterday to regis- ter their wishes as to who should lead the ticket of their party at the coming election. Most of them decided they wanted George A. Quigley—or rather, most of them decided they wanted someone rather than knowing the only way to bring about any sort of change they voted for Quigley despite the strenuous opposi- tlon he met in some quarters. The Herald Republican Curtls and, congrutulutes Mr. Quigley on being given this opportun- ity to run for an office in which, if he i successful in obtaining it, he will have a chance to serve the people of the city in a splendid way to make such changes in the manner of the city's administration that there will be no cause for complaint from the taxpayers. The candidate's success once again the change in public sen. ment—in the manner of public think- ihg or feeling. Mayor Curtis conduct- ed his' campaign in " manner similar to that adopted by him two years ago. His, more than Mr. Quigley’'s, “‘conservativé,” according to Curtis. ‘His methodsd, more than Mr. Quigley's | are ‘‘conservative.” The fight between Alderman Iaon- and indicates WAE ® “dnsa an@’ Mr. Quigley will ‘Be interest- ing.

And nobody secms to care, girls could sleep and thing one one darned it's just A movement which, if successful, should be reflected in more nearly permanent prosperity for New Britain is now being launched throughout the country. In brief, it is to encourage property owners to ‘“re-hardware” their homes and buildings. In spite of all precautions hard- ware will deteriorate in proportion to the rate at which the building of which it is a part deteriorates. As new hardware gives a building the finishing touch that spells complete- ness, so worn, scratched hardware makes a displeasing picture. It is not difficult to imagine that the poet was partly impressed by a rusty lock when he wrote: “Still sits the schoolhouse by the road, A ragged beggar sunning Around it still the sumac grows And blackberry vines are running.” The ‘“raggedness” of the school- house was probably intensified by old hardware which gave it the appear- ance of being down at the heels. Real estate operators have had their attention attracted by.the “re- tiardware” idea and are making cap- ital of it. For example, when prop- erty is bought, for purposes of specu- lation, among the improvements which the purchasers will make will be to substitute new for old hard- ware.. Thig, in connection with the renewal of the woodwork through the liberal use of paint and varnish, will increase its value many times the original cost of the hardware. In fact, it has been estimated that “re-hard- ng” wilf result in a price ten per xcess of what the property ng if this improvement were cent. in would br overlooked. If the practice of ‘“re-hardwaring houses and buildings becomes general it will have a tremendous influence on New Britain's future, There would be such a continuous demand for builders’ hardware, locks, bolts, knobs, etc., that a steady flow of or- ders would come to many:local fac- tories which specialize in these prod- uct Not only would ‘“re-hardwar- ing” find favor with real estate spec- ulators, but it would also appeal to the home owner who would have much interest in having new hard- ware furnishings installed as he would have in buying new rugsor new silver or china for his wife. There no limit to the possibilities It would seem at this early that the movement can be made suc- handled by the proper pro-| and sufficiently financed. date cosstul if pagandis!

In view of the cordial relations ex- Isting between Mr., Paonessa and Mr, Halloran during their contest for the nomination, it is expeeted that both factions will harmonize with the single object in view of electing a democrat to the mayor's office, One of the surprises of the sixth ward caucus was the strength of IF'rank 1., Conlon, successful candi- date for aldermanic nomination. Mr, Conlon ran far ahead of his rivals in spite of the fact that he did not de- cide to become a candidate until Jast Monday. He is a live young man with plenty of experience in govern- ment affairs and should be heard from when he assumes his place as alderman, Members of the eity meeting board who voted to reduce salaries of pub- lic employes must be convinced hy now that their action was ill-advised end hasty. I%ar from falling over themselves to comply with the rec- ommendations of the board, public commissions have taken an opposite course and several of them have voted against bringing ahout a reduc- tion in the wages of their employes. Whatever the ultimate outcome, the action of the city meeting board is certain to cause confusion and té create doubt in the minds of many citizens whether the law is so sacred as they have bheen led to beliéve, They have been told that, as individ- pals, they must not transgress against the laws of the city and state and yet this is practically what the city meet- ing board did when it attemped to usurp the authority of the common council with respect to establishing salaries. Inthusiastic supporters of the board’s action will no doubt scoff at the foregoing and say that it does not furnish a true comparison. But law is law, and what should be law for the masses should also be law for the clas: The charter is supposed to regulate the conduct of city offi- cials, to explain their obligations and their powers. It has been approved by the state legislature and therefore becomes a law for a part of the state. To seek convenient loopholes in it is just as dangerous as to break any of the statutes. It is plainly written in the charter that the common council shall have authority to fix salaries. By what in- terpretation of their powers do mem- bers of the city meeting board seek to delegate to themselves authority to do this work? Only by the widest stretch of the imagination is it pos- sible to conceive that the legislature ever intended to transfer from the common council to the city meeting hoard control over the salary ques- tion. To argue otherwise on the ground of a technicality is to strain at a gnat. The expected has happened. Only those who were blind to the real sit- uation and who did not include ai understanding of human nature in their reckonings ever believed that public commissions would meeckly bend the knee in response to the ukase which 1ed from the session of the city meeting hoard. Thus far a number of commissions have seen fit to stand pat on the sal- ary question. The board of educa- tion holds to the opinion that it would not he playing with the boys and girls of New Britain, as well as the parents, to lower the tandard of the teaching force. Sal- arles for teaching have not been re- duced in other cities. There is not a surplus of experienced (eachers. Therefore, if New Britain drives away the teachers around whom the educa- tional structure is built, if it disrupts its organization, it will suffer from less efficient instruction, The board of education is quite within its rights in taking this view of the situation. It is morally obliged to provide the best school system, within reason, that it can, and its actions should not be influenced by outside political con- siderations.’ The police board, water hoard, health board and board of public works have also decided to stand pat as the members helieve that their em- ployes are deserving of salaries which have alrcady been recommended, The common council committees on sal- aries has likewise refused to he dic- tated to. It made a report on salaries to the parent body, a report based on information that' had been laid before it. Tt would be hipocrisy for the committee to “about face” now just because it had been told to do so. Without questioning the sincerity of those who fostered the Jower salary drive, it must be said that the effect | has been very disappointing, resulting only in a tangle which seems to be becoming more involved every week. That is usually the case when one branch of the government tries to clothe itself with authority that le- gally belongs to another branch of the government. Fven the most irritable driver of autos or horses will admit that the duties of a traffic officor are weari- some, annoying and such as to try the patience of a modern Job; but at the same time a traffic officer should be a man well qualified, mentally and diplomatically, to handle such a task with all the tact that efficient public service requires. A grouchy traffic officer, instead of being an asset to the city, is a labilily. A traffic of- ficer is & public servant, paid by the public and dependent upon the pub- lie, in a manner of speaking, for his livelihood. The duty of a traffic-of- ficer is to make himself a valuable aid to the public which he scrves, both by keeping the lanes of traffic open and e, and by giving udvice and by graciously answering questions asked. While no attack on the traffic squad is contemplated—for on the whole they are a courteous and effi cient body of men—nevertheless at- tention has been directed to certain actions which should not be con- doned. The fact that a driver misun- derstands a signal and starts up when he should stop, or goes around a post when he should cut in front of gives the policeman no excuse for it, | g ] vouring and ranting llke a wounded bull, scolding the hapless driver and humiliating him in front of the crowd, If a man violates the ordl nance or law It I8 within the police- man's provinee to arrest him, 1f an arrest s not necessary it is certainly within his provinee to warn him or advise him; but he most assuredly is not acting as a good officer when he flies into a rage, berates the offender and in so doing helittles himself, Several instances of this kind have been reported of late, especially by visitors, Also, about a week ago an- other flagrant case of a traffie police- man, over-officious and with a display of evil temper, who slapped a small boy was reported, According to the report, made on good authority, there was a traffic jam at a certain corner and while it was being un- tangled u smgll boy on roller skates essayed to skim across the street. With a roar of rage the big, burly policeman reached for the youngster and hit him a resounding slap across the face, ordering him to get bacit (l“l the sidewalk. Of course the hoy was not injured physically and for- tunatefy for the policeman none of his relatives sitw the act, else a com- plaint might have been filed. How- ever, such exhibitions of temper are inexcusable and by slapping a small boy In the face the officer excceded his authority. Also, does that seem the proper v to instill into the minds of the rising generation a fit- ting respect for the majesty of the law? “Who are those gentlemen walking down the street arm in arm?” in- quired the interested stranger of Phil- osophical Phil, who stood on the cor- ner of Main und Church streets early this morning. Philosophical Phil removed his cigar from his mouth and started his monologue. ‘“The hLandsome man with the broad, good-natured smile, who is greeting everyone so affably,” he began, “is Mayor Curtls, and the other—the chap who has his arm through the mayor's is Mr. Quigley. They work hand in glove together, these two. Kind, courteous, gener- ous, broad-minded and full of en- lightened on, both of them, “Over on the other side of the street,” continued Philosophical Phil, “just coming out of Wilson's store, is Candidate Paonessa. See, he's head- ed for Curtis and Quigley. It is ru- mored that the three of them like nothing better than to gather together in the rear of Joe Halloran's store and tell Joe how the city ought to be run. Joe’s had some political aspirations. “Coming up the street, so modest and polite-like,” Philosophical Phi! went on, “is Mister P. 3, McMahon, They wanted him to run for mayor but he's too busy trying to ralse funds for the publie library and artistic things like that to be able to make a campalgn. He's a quiet, reffring gort of chap is Mr, McMahon “That group of people slanding there by the monument,” added Phil, following the direction of the inter- ested stranger's glance, “are repre- sentative taxpayers of the city, Theyre a happy lot, talking about how well the city has been always run, especially just now, They're sa ing that it's fine so mayny good men offer themselves as candidates for of- fice, They are telling how hard it is for them to decide which is the best man, they're all so good. Of course they are a little sore that the city docsn’t spend more money for fino things such as dental clinies, physical training, new parks and the like, but they'll get over that—they know they have 8o many things to be thankful for." Philosophical Phil smiled content- edly, rolled hig cigar about in his mouth and leaned comfortably against the lamp post. “You have interested me very much,” said the stranger, moving away. “I belleve this would be an ldeal place in which to live—your political situation is 8o good." He started toward the railroad sta- tion but halted & moment as he heard the sleepy voice of I’hilosophical IPhil following him. “I forgot to tell you,” came the words, “that the only satisfaction we get out of politics here is laughing at ‘em. Today is ‘All Tools’ Day,’ vou know. So I had a right to tell a few lies.” STROKF IS REPLACED.
