PETITION BEINZ SIGNED Many Interested provement of Road. in Proposed Im- Hampton-Brooklyn Indications Tuesday were that there is to be immediate concentration of aid of the state highway department in providing a better highway be- tween Hampton and Brooklyn, a sec- tion of the most direct route hetween Hartford and “Providence. A number of Danielsot business men have shown immediate interest in the proposition. Brooklyn and | Hampton residents also have prom- ised their aid in getting the matter properly before the state highway de- partment, The section of highway desired to be improved is a part of one of the trunk line highways laid out, a few years ago, for improvement by the state. In this section it is quite open- ly asserted in some quarters that politics may be held responsible for failure to improve this route, while another and roundabout highway has been put in first class condition as a route between Providenc: and Hart- ford. The time has come when the resi- dents of the towns of Killingly, Brooklyn and Hampton should unite In an effort to have the state carry out a plan made years ago to develop the Willimantic-Danfelson route as & state highway.

SEEKS POSTMASTERSHIP Joseph Halle Will Take Civil Service Examination at Putnam. Joseph Halle, Cottage street, has announced that he is a candidate for the postmastership and that he wijp take the civil service examination at Putnam July 10. Mr. Halle is one of Danielson’s well known demiocrats. He has served as a member of the democratic town committee and has been an active worker in the party ranks for ‘a number of years. No complete list of those who ars to take the examination for the post- mastership has been made available, but it was stated on Tuesday that |there will be as many as seven can- didates for the place. The office pays $2400 a year. ‘While the examination at Putnam fis to be under the civil service rules it is understood that the appointment is to he a presidential one. Prohibition the Issue. Talk of nominations for represen- tatives from Killingly a few weeks hence is heard frequemtly nowadays, and the aim of party managers seems to be to get candidates who will measuré up to a difficult situdtion po- litically. It is now well understood that a strong effort will be made in Hartford at the next session to put Connecticut in the list of prohibition states, and this means that candi- dates for representdtives in Killingly muet face the scrutiny of voters who will want to know how they are coing to vote on that particular issue, gardless of their party and it also means that, with many, Loth wets and drys, this issue will be more paramount than republicanism or democracy, which will line the vot- ers up much after the manner they are found in Killingly in the license campaigns. No prohibitionist can go to Hart- ford from Killingly rext session with- out making a tremendous effort for victory, it is sald in well informed effort on the proposition to enlist the | PUTNAM Democrats Nominate John O. Fox for Sheriff — Willimantic Delegates Promise Loyal Support — Attorney Eric H. Johnson for Senator—Re- sults of Tuesday’'s Classifications— Order Numbers of Men to Go to Camp Devens. The democratic county convention held at the Chickering hotel in this city Tuesday morning nominated John ‘0. Fox of this city as the party’s can- didate for sheriff of Windham county. The vote was unanimous and Mr. Fox’s acceptance of the nomination was later announced. The particular thing about the con- ‘| vention that lent additional interest to the nomination was a statement by members of the Willimantic delegation, that they would take their coats off, g0 to speak, and 'go to it for the elec- tion of Mr, Fox, who will have as his opponent on_the republic ticket Sheriff Charles A. Gates of Willimantic. +People who follow the political game will recall that Mr. Fox ‘“fell down” in the town of Windham when he was a candidate for sheriff, to succeed him- self, four years ago, and it has since been admitted that some of the demo- erats of Willimantic who can do things in the political field in that city did not overexert themselves for Mr. Fox's election, for “Charlie” Gates, conceded by all to.be & =ood fellow, was their friend and they were not over-anxious to aid in an effort to defeat him. There has been a mayoralty election in Willimantic since then, however, and Mr. Gates is the mayor now in addition to being sheriff, so things are somewhat different than they used to be, considering especially that a dem- ocratic idol, Daniel P. Dunn, went down to defeat when Mr. Gates was elected mayor. In Mr. Fox the democrats conceed- edly, have nominated their strongest available man. Mr. Fox was not a candidate for the honor, but he was told that the Windham democrats would work for him this fall and this, his friends say,-may have had some- thing to do with brimging him back in_the field. Mr. has filled the office of sher- il of Windham county with credit. He received ihe appointment from Gov- ernor Paldw after the death of Sheriff Sibley and filled the place un- til he was succeeded by ‘Sheriff Gates, who defeated him at the election four years ago. Hon. Asa M. Ross of Thompson and Putnam was chairman of tk§ conven- tion, which was harmonious through- out. The delegates to the convention, including the follawing, had dinner at the Chickering hotel. a considerable number of them remaining over for the senatorial convention of the Twenty- eighth district in the afternoon: James Haggerty, J. F. Keon, V. L. Murphy, Daniel P. Dunn, M. E. Donovan, all of Willimantic; Harry R. Lathrop, Ed- ward Riley, Brooklyn: Arthur Viens, Killingly; F. C. Ross, Asa M. Ross, C. W. Stearns, F. / Munyan, all of Thompson; F. W. Sherman, R. J. Sherman, Sterling; A. M. Bowen, East™ ford: F. C. Dayv! Pomfret: Richard Gorman, Frederick Dumas, Putnam. Eric H. Johnson for Senator. At the senatorial convention in the afternoon Attorney Eric H. Johnson of this city was nominated as the democratic candidate for senator from the Twenty-eighth district. His nomi- tion w: unanimous and Mr. John- son, who is prosecuting attorney of this city’s court, accepted.

Manager Thomas McDermott of the Putnam basepall team has made the generous offer of putting on a big baseball attraction here Sunday, July 21, for the benefit of the boys of the district who are leaving next week for Camp Devens. There are 65 to go and Manager McDermott wants to do something that will give the people an opportunity to show’the boys how they feel towarq tnose who are fighting and are to fight the country's battles. Manager McDermott's proposition is to put on a big game and to turn over every nickel of profit above the actual s to the selected men of this district, that they may have a fund to buy smokes or other things that may appeal to them on the day they leave for camp. A committce of the selected men will be at the zate to help handlé the fund as it comes in. Jf the game proves a {lnancial loss, Manager Mc- Dermott says he is wiiling to stand the cost qut of his own pocket. He himself is a veteran of the Spanish war, and he knows what it means to get out and make ready to do vour bit. In a word, the big game will be in the nature of a sendoff for the men, and if the arrahgements are made, as now seems certain, there is a prospect of getting together the biggest base- ball crowd of the season, City Briefs. Special officers will be on duty.to- night to keep the “night before” crowd within the limits. Fred Sherry has enlisted in the navy and will get a second class machinist's rating. Putnam bass fishermen who were at Alexander’s lake for the opening of the season on Tuesday say the fish “were not at home.” ‘Berries of various kinds now com- ing in in quantities are being made into jams by Putnam people and used a sa substitute for butter.
