He has grown accustomed to them every campaign year and is of the between opinion that no “solemn referendum® | some | without hetween would he complete acrimonious political stage managers. Therefore, when he reads that one Democratic faction is suffering from a brain storm over Mayor Paonessa’s approval of Mr. Hall, a Republican, for the state and ex-Mayor Quigley's faetion in the Republican show cannot get along with the artistic argument the senate, “temperament shown by Stage Director George W. Klett, he bats a contempla- tive eye and tickles a retentive memory and remarks to the nearest person kind enough to listen that it was always so. Why should there not be factions within political ranks? What a dreary kind.of politics it would be if all poli- ticians always agreed, denying to ‘ themselves the pleasure of disputation and to the public the thrill of specu- | lation, Instead of merely two factions in a party there might be three or four to the general advantage of the faction- {sts and the audience that likes a good show for its trouble in Keeping Inter- ested. It's oppogition that enhances the in- The more our doughty politi- the terest. cians engage in verbal combat greater the prospect for a full housuI of onlookers. A genuine old-fashioned fist fight now and then would increase the box receipts even more; but it is to be feared that nowadays, with women taking an active part in the casts, the actors must perform more gentlemanly, leaving the fist fights the exclusive property of the chivalrous gentlemen of North Carolina, where a senatorial candidate engaged in one the other day merely because he was ealled a “dirty liar."” The town committees have reached the point where they are “organizing” in preparation for the election show down. In the ironing out process dis- agreements may verge upon disputa- tion, and one faction may seek undue advantage over the other in more ways than ona. But if there are two factions in one party and an equal number in the other, the vesult will bg mostly fifty-fifty. The chief result is it will serve to shake the apathetic voter into some semblance of attention. The platform of the downtrodden and voter is, ‘“more snd better factions." subservient HIS PRIVATE OPINION When Mayor Paonessa “endorged” Edward F.

The other day a patient reader wrote in to the editor wishing to know whether the paper was ever going to publish anything advocating the election of Coolidge. This was the signal for an ‘“ex- planation” by the editor. In the fu- ture, it is probable that on days when Mr. La Follette gets three columns of editorial space in the Union Mr. Cool- idge will get at least half a column. Party organs are peculiar animals, The day when the public swallowed the dope without looking is past, vet they continue their efforts to lend a totally one-sided interpretation to every po- litical development. To such papers s the Union everything Davis or Bryan, or La Follette and Wheeler say is nonsensc; and everything that | Coolidge or Dawes say is golden. But nobody believes that except the party organ editors and the machines they speak for. The truth is, there are some gopd points about all the candidates and also some bad points. The same holds {rue about their platforms. The pub- | lic makes its choice according to its :nghts. Attempts to mould its opinion on political questions are well-nigh futile. The only system that counts with | the public is for publications to weigh and analyze the facts and evidence, or to emphasize facts and evidence that reasonably ought to figure in ar- riving at a proper appraisal of the claims of candidates. Party organs| nowadays are distressingly weak in in- fluencing public action regarding po- Jitieal issues, Buttonhole a man on the street and ask him what he thinks of a statement in a party organ and nine times out of ten he will say that it was just what could have been ex- pected. He is left cold and uncon- vinced because of its source. What great party organs in carrying elections in their cities of publication? Candidates are con- sistently elected despite their opposi- | tion. Indeed, their opposition fre-| quently helps a candidate. | | A paper that belongs to a party can- not possibly represent all the people at the same time, and usually does not advocate the common interest, but only the interests of the party and the interests supporting the party; they | reflect party organizations in the spoils | of office rather than the benefits of the succeed common people. | The fact is, the public resents being | told whom to vote for when the ad- | vice comes from partisan sources. | here is every reason to believe, how- | ever, that the public welcomes a rea- presentation | sonable and restrained | and analyeis of campaign claims, that | it may be alded in coming to a fair | conclusion regarding their merits, | Wien a newspaper fills this require- | ment it serves its publie weil, BEAUTY PARLORS | They say a beauty parior is nothing shop for as believe more or less than a barber fair they can be made faire intended can enter to engage an expert where such than nature the 86X, bobs. curls and cesmetic ar- to fiser of touches of exquisite left off. rang: 4 | | benuty where nature A heauty parior is no place for th 5 the of men; the nea Lapproach he can perfumed precincts of such delectable institutions is he the | | door of onc and gains a fartive glanc invasion mere experience to when passcs into the frescoed and white-enameled There appear to be a plenti- hot water, perfumery and curling irons; some of the dainty tools plicd by manicured finge r-tips | suggest an affinity to those use d by the | | more energetic masculine barbera. | | 18 rumored that even dainty razom® e | interior. | tude of towels, 4 o | she already | preme, | door capable, If she is unmarried, realizes she is better fortified to win in the chase for supremacy over son worthless male whom she may be In- in at the while If is married, she is vinced of being able to hold hubby's terested moment; co | attention and prevent him from being enamoured of another, In fact, they feel just lke a does when he emerges from a barber shop; the young fellow is primed to conquer a heart, while he who has already conquerad one goes home and obtains an extra kiss for looking so man handsome, WHEN TRACKS WEAR OUT The car tracks along various lines in New Britain are gradually getting near the stage where replacement will be necessary. On some of the lines speed is not maintained because of the constant “bowing” of the one-man cars—Indeed, they seem to bow to every passerby. Probably the same thing is happen- ing in other citles of the state, \When tracks become entirely too rickety for travel, the question naturally will arise along non-paying lines—is it worth while to replace them or adopt busses? 1t is almost a safe bet that when that ftime arrives the Connecticut company will be going into the bus business on the wholesale plan. It would be ridiculous to replace tracks on losing lines. Thomas Edison told President Cool- | idge he will be reclected if he keeps his mouth shut, Dispatches did not hint whether this was intended as a compliment or subtie eriticism. e e Governor Morrison of North Caro- lina has sent a delegate to the League of Nations in Geneya, greatly embar- rassing League officlals, The North Carolina executive didn't even adopt the characteristic ~ Washingtonian method of calling him an “unofficial observer.” “Coolidge Praises Dawes' Am'vpl-! ance”—headline, Change the verb to “Lambasts” and it would be a more interesting story. That fist fight betwen politicians in South Carolinia was caused by one of them terming the other a “dirty liar.” Calling him a liar wasn't so bad, but gpecifying the kind of liar was en- tirely too much. The New Haven aldermen tricd to prevent the Connecticut company from laying a track with spurs on Water street. The company said 1t would lay them anyhow. Oh very well, seeing it's the trolley company, there's | no use objecting. et i Jewelry robbers, chased after stag- ing a bold daylight geizure in Boston, escaped because pursuing police and taxicabs were hindered by a traffic jam. Some day there will be a fire and half the town will burn down be- fore the fire trucks can get to the secat of the blaze.

New Haven, Aug. 23.—Announce- ment was made today by the Yale school of forestry of the annual meet- ing Thursday, August 28, of the Lum- ber Manufacturers association of Southern New England at the school. The visiting members of the asso- ciation will dine at the shore and then visit the school, where they will be welcomed by the school officials and officials of the state forestry as- sociation. Moving pictures dealing with for- estry and lumbering will be exhibited and the visitors will view the school plant and especially the collection of woods of all kinds, said to be one of the, most comprehensive existent and also a collection of equipment combatting forest fires. Members of the association are owners and operators of saw mills cutting lumber and Interested in.the conservalion of the supply, and especially in a movement of the state forestry association looking toward the building of a large enough area of state owned forests to supply tim- ber for the future, the announcement says. George L. Ingalls of Norwich is president and Theo I..

Despite thelr political differences, Mayor Paonessa and Mr, Hall are fast friends. Mr, Hall is chairman of the board of finance and taxation, an ap- pointee of the mayor. In this posi- tion he has been closely in touch with His Honor in the role of adviser, When Mr. Hall announced that he would be a candidate for the state senate it was generally conceded that he would make an exeeptionally strong run with the probability that he would ba elected. His chance has been strengthened a great deal by the mayor's endorsement which serves to discombabulate the Demo- cratic party, If you get what we mean, and to instill a feeling of dif- fidence in members of the party who thought they would ltke to go to the senate, Tt there is discord in the Demo- eratic backyard, the noise in the Tte- publican field of battle is positively deafening. Once more the G. O. P. organization has said to ex-Mayor Quigley: “This {s where you gat off.” Whether he will follow {nstructions remains to be seen. At a conference of hand-picked Te- publicans Thursday night, plans and specifications were drafted for a guadily decorated band wagon. The {architects will permit the Quigleyites to stand at the curb and applaud as the wagon passes, hut all scats are loccupied by the chosen few and no ride. The conference developed fnfo a quiet anti-Quigley meecting., It de- cided to work for the election of cer- tain conention delegates and to have a machine in ecach ward. We said a few lines back that it was a band wagon, But closer inspection reveals the outlines and the mechanism of a which plays ‘“Hail, hail, the gang's all here.” According to friends of Quigley, the republican organization called the “machine” by the vulgar, is incapable of Jearning a lesson. At {he city election last spring a drive was made against this self-same or- ganization, a successful d e, which put Mayor Paonessa back in office. In spite of the mayor's great personal popularity, it is doubtful whether he gould have been re-clected without the help of republicans who did not love him more but the organization le: They rose and smote the or ganization hip and thigh and left it breathless, Whether they will con- sider the meeting of the chosen few Thursday night in the light of an {overt act cannot be determined. Tiut the fact sticks out like Pike's Peak lon a moonlight night that the con- terces turned fheir respective and col- lective noses up at candidates for convention delegates who are thought to be friendly to e sor Quigley. Among those who were treated to icicles was Maxwell 8, Porter, a for- {mer member of the council who re- fused to become subservient to the G. 0. P. organization while serving in his official eapacity. Mr, Porter is n resident of the third ward, a popular resident, it might be added.

It takes particular delight in mocking a man who delivers ice in the neighbor- hood.
