Spectators Outside the That Is What Judge Agent Is Doing. Ring Claim Shea’s Press There s much public criticism on account of the Willimantic correspon- gence in a Hartford paper that mis- represents the public sentiment in this city concerning the approaching ap- pointment of a judge of the police court. The correspondent is the clerk of the probate court and it is claimed he writes simply as the press agent of Judge Shea, of that court, and is at the heaq of the publicity bureau of the municipal ring that is at the present time so much under fire for the deflant way in which they are ig- noring the sentiment of Willi. mantic oconcerning their official ac- tions.

It is stated that if Representative Kel- ley supports Judge Shea's candidacy and he should be appointed he (Kel- ley) it is believed would expect that Judge Shea would appeint him (Kel- ley) prosecuting attorney as a polit- ical rewarq for his services. Not a Willimantic citizen outside of the democratic municipal ring, has been heard to object to Judge Arnold’s re- appointment on the ground of his con- ducting a law business in Hartford while, residing in Willimantic. There is a tremendous _public sentiment against Judge Shea’s political greed in asking for the appointment of judge of the police court while he presides over the probate court. Citizens of all partles think he could not give his at- tention to the police count ~without siighting the business of the probate court which 18 constanily increasing. The supporters of Judge Arnold, whe represent the best element of the city and who also pay three-quarters of the taxes, openly declare that they also commend the splendid stand Attorne: S. B. Harvey, the democratic cand date, is taking on public matters and that Willimantic would be sure of an able, impartial and_independent police court judge if he (Harvey). should re- ceive the appointment. Chairman Thoms -of the judiciary committee is'reported by one of Wil- limantic's representatives to -have agreed that there shall be no recom- mendation made by the committee on the Willimantic police court judgeship | matter until after Judge Arnold's sup- porters are advised of a hearing and have a chance to be heard. } INSPIRING SERMON. Delivered at Congregational Church by Rev. Charles P. Croft, of Weatogue. Rev. Charles P. Croft of Weatogue, preached an inspiring sermon at the morning service at the Congregational church Sunday. Mr. Croft emphasized in telling sentences and apt illustra- | tions the fact that all men and women were as truly inspired to preach the | gospel by practicing the divine-human touch of Christ as was the minister | in the pulpit. “God fires no blank cartridges” was one of his striking sentences.

PERSONAL TAXES. Not Completely Collected on Lists of 1910 and 1911. One of the matters to come up at the selectmen’s meeting this after noon is the condition of the personal | tax lists for the past two ars. Se- | lectman Gelinas has been pressing the board to clean this business up so the | town may know how it stands in this | matter. ‘R. O. Snow was collector of | personal taxes in 1910 and 1811. The ledger account at the town clerk’s of- fice shows: that the assessment of per- sonal taxes on the 1910 list amounts | to $4888 and that there are $982 of | these taxes still uncollected. The 1911 ! personal tax Iist shows $5194 as the | sum due the town for personal taxes | and $1676 of this amount remains un- collected. Some exemptions would | somewhat reduce these two amount: of uncollected personal taxes, but town official thinks that 25 to 33 1-3 per cent. would be a fair allowance for exemptions. Michael Sullivan was the enumerator who took the personal tax census for ! the 1912 list. A considerable number of names not enumerated by Mr. Sul- livan have been added to the last list at the instance of the town officials and one citizen suggested to Select- man Gelinas that it might be well to | verify Mr. Sullivan’s list by making | a test enumeration of say 100 families | t in a distr are boar criterion of -t} in the town and where there lodging houses as a correctness of the enu- merator's work, for which he receives As this is an important matter, citizens are taking interest in it and they think this suggestion is only a fair business proposition.
