THE PASSING or FlNGY.

"Fingy" Connors is no longer Chair
man OF the New York State Demo
cratic Committee. The men who made

chairman In his place. The change
was made in very becoming fashion,
with regrets and praise for Fingy and
praise and congratulations for John.
Fingy took occasion. in his farewell
speech, 10 boast that he had nor been
controlled by Tammany and pointed
TO what he had accomplished for the
party in the upstate counties of New
York; Dix declared that he would be
Chairman for the whole state. and not

GOOD sALooN-kEErERs.

Father Adrian, the pastor OF st.
Nicholas's Roman Catholic Church. 81.
Louis, made a, speech at the annual
dinner Of Council No. 1 of the Liquor
Dealers Benevolent Association of
that city on Thursday. in which he
paid a remarkable tribute to the sa-
loon-kcepers In his parish. saying that
they are the best praying and best
paying men among his people; they
are honest. honorable and upright
gentlemen" when / need assistance
In charitable work they are the first
to offer aid; they are the most per-
sistent attendants at church. and are
sincere in their worship" "in their
places of business a workingnian can
not spend money which rightfully be-
longs to his family. and no person is
allowed to become intoxicated Moth
ing better than that could be said
about men who are not saloon keepers.
Those who pray as devoutly and pay
as we'll and give as much for charita-
BILE work in the other parishes and
congregations in st. Louis will, of
course, be justified in casting the first
stone. 1t is not in our baiiiwick.
