KING JOHN AND
 JOHN KING ALIKE
 HAVE FOLLOWERS
And That's the Reason Why 639 Men in Bridgeport Who Might Vote, Chose Not to do SO

There are 639 men residing in the city of Bridgeport who undoubtedly do not care about exercising their right to suffrage, the right that only a portion of the people in the world have secured. If the knights who held up old King John at Runny- mede and forced him to sign the Magma Charta- could come back to earth they would probably ask the press to print a communication ask ing some of the citizens whether they were sore on old King John or wheth- CT they had a grouch on because John King is in the political ascendency and destined to be a. big boss in case of Republican success.
 There are four parties in the pres ent campaign with remedies for all legislative ills, and it looks as though there are over 500 men in Bridgeport who can't find ticket that they vote in an effort to make the country better place to live in.
 The selectmen had the names of 1906 men on their to-be-made lists and only 967 of the number took ad- vantage of the opportunity The session in the common council cham Der closed promptly last night at 8 o'clock, according to law. At 8:30 there were a half dozen prospective voters who put in an appearance, but they were too late. The doors were locked.
 The selectmen will hold a session later in order to make voters who mature between last night and cleo ton day.

NO RELIGIOUS ISSUE IN THIS
 ELECTION
Official Organ of Hartford DiO- cese Rebukes UnprincipIed Politicians Who Would Create Religious Prejudice

The following from the Catholic Transcript, the official organ of the Hartford Diocese, sounds a note of tolerance and shows a refreshing breadth of political view, which will put to blush some of those unscrupu- lous men who have been trying to inject religious issue into the pres ent campaign to influence votes for Governor.
 The Transcript says, under the title: 'No Religious Issue':-
 It is conso1ing to note that neither candidate for the Governorship of Connecticut can be charged with anti Catholic bigotry. Weeks ago some one endeavored to raise a religious issue. He failed as every disturber ingloriously.
 We take this to be a tribute to the Catholic body as well to the gen. tlemen who are in nomination. It is ing Catholics cannot be reused to re- Hgious warfare without good and suf- ficient cause: They find nothing in the record of the public life of either candidate that affords a shadow of proof that he is anything but benevo- lent towards the Church, and appre- ciative of her conspicuous service for the welfare of hundreds of thousands of citizens of this commonwealth. On the contrary, it would. be easy to quote instances wherein each of the gentle
 
 within the gift of the people of Con necticut, has shown that he duly val ues the great work which is being ac- comp1: shed by the Catholic church.
 Politicians are alert to take advan- tage of every chance Some of them are ever ready to play hard and fast with the reputation even of the most deserving public servent. Some of them do not disdain to play upon the credulity the prejudice, the ignorance, the simplicity, the inexperience and the zeal of any class of voters. We have a full share of these designing men. The fact that they have not succeeded in dragging religion into the Tnire of the present struggle Is credit to our good sense and a warn ing to all who are unprincipled enough to kindle the fires of religious strife.
 It is we'll for the State of Connec- ticut that such irresponsible opportu nists are unable to excite Catholics to mutiny and rage. Their day has passed. The present campaign, though decidedly interesting, has not yet produced a Mare Antony. Should such a dastard undertake to lift his head before the closing of the polls on November 8, we shall be at pains to hold him up to the reproduction and contempt of the Catholic people of the Commonwealth.
