Brady A1- derman Brady has lived in the Eighth district for IS years, and his natural gift of keen perception and his deep interest in public affairs have resulted in his finding the spots in his district that need attention and securing the needed improvements.

JOHN E. LYDDY

John E. Lyddy, nominated by the Democracy of the Eleventh for alder manic honors, is peculiarly well fitted for the responsibility of representing his district in the Common Council. A native of Bridgeport he has lived in the Eleventh district practically all his life, within a radius of few blocks of his present residence at 90 Hough avenue.
 Mir. Lyddy is noted as a skilled par 1iamentarian. He is one of the lead ing spirits of a number of fraternal organizations among which his able oratory and parliamentary skill have won wide recognition. Until now he has never aspired to public office. On many occasions he has declined nom nations to positions of trust. This year. however his friends were so ur- gent that they persuaded him to ac- cept the nomination, which was won after an exciting contest and they were at once confident that his nom- ination meant election, for the con- test was strikinkly devoid of person aIities and i'll feeling.
 MT. Lyddy has been a consistent Democrat since he became voter, and while not in public life he has taken an active part in the affairs of his party in the Eleventh district. He is gifted with rare executive ability, a quality long since recognized by the Crane Co.,, of which he is chief in- spector and foreman. MT. Lyddy may be depended upon to represent his dis trict faithfully and we'll, for it is such men as he in public life that make for the uplifting of municipal standards.

William H. Mccoy, the Democratic aldermanic candidate in the Second district, is practically a life long res ident of that strongly Democratic section. The voters of that section are especially fortunate in having as their candidate man of his natural ability.
 Mr. Mccoy resides with his family known for years as quiet worker in the Democratic ranks. He won the nomination after a hotly contested primary fight, which brought him into the public eye more than he had been accustomed until this fall.

GARRY PADDOCK

There is probably no resident of the Twelfth district, better known than Garry Paddock, the alderman whom the Democrats of that district have favored with renomination. Inasmuch as the Twelfth the largest district in the city, it goes without saying that Alderman Paddocks acquaintance there is unusually widespread and nu- merous.
 Though a native of New York state, born in Brewsters Al years ago. he has spent most of his life in Con- necticut. Until 16 years ago he re- sided in Danbury, but since then he has been a resident of Bridgeport, 1fv- Point" in the East End.
 After number of years of political activity, MT. Paddock was elected to the board of alderman four years ago. His record in that body at once at tracted attention, and last year, he was elected Senator from the 23d dIs- trict representing the city at Hartford with splendid success.
 Senator Paddock's record. at Hart ford comments itself especially to the toilers. He fought for the Public Utilities bill, for the removal of the death damage limit, for the Working mems Compensation and Employers liability bills and figured prominently in the support of such measures de- signed to protect the purses of the workers as the net weight package food bill. the full crew train bill, the bills designed to place weights and measures upon a uniform inspection basis and as Senate chairman of the Committee on Federal relations he

THE MIKADO

When Sheriff Joseph Weller makes his entrance on the stage carrying a sword 7 feet long, tomorrow night at the Park Theatre, there is bound to be one grand round of applause. MT. Weiler's part as the Lord High Exc cutioner in this production of the ''Mikado' is a very fitting one, as in his every day role of deupty sheriff he is accustomed to all the gestures and perquisites that become that part. It may be interesting to many to know who the chorus is: School girls, mo- bles. guards, etc, Misses Mabel Vree- land, Hazel Beard, Florence Seeley, Alice Seeley, Mabel Umstatter, Anna Mae Hammet, Anna Horsfale, Grace Garfield, Madeline Sterling, Florence Reed, Louise Elrod, Virginia Bursey, Gertrude Bursey, Ethel Clapp, Ger trude Clapp, Mabel Gunnsenhauser, Florence Riley, Hazel and Mae Lamp man, Ruth Mcbride, Jessie Joudrey, Florence Bradley, Grace Curtis, Edna Garneau, Sophie Lehman, Lilhe Dis brow, Margaret Hughes, Ida Love- grove, Emma Pederson, Mrs. c.

CARL DORSCH

Voters of the Tenth district are to be given an opportunity next Tues day of recognizing merit in a young man who has been their capable rep resentative in the Common Council but a short time. Carl Dorsch was elected to fill vacancy in the Com mon Council. His membership there has been comparatively brief, but he has made an excellent record and it is likely that he. will receive big vote.
 MT. Dorsch is especially we'll known in German-American circles, while his acquaintance throughout his district is very wide. He is personally very popular, and his political career. has served to enhance his large following.
 Mir Dorsch is a young man of much ability.

The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-11-01
JOHN H. CASSIDY

John H. Cassidy, whom the Dem- ocrats of the Third district have re- nominated, is entitled to reelection by the voters of that rapidly growing section of the city. Alderman Cas- sidy has an excellent record in the Common Council, and has shown in his keen interest in the proceedings of the Council that he has the welfare of his constituents at heart.
 Alderman Cassidy is a good type of the young man in politics. He is 30 years of age. He entered the em- ploy of the Bryant Electric Co.,, as a lad of IA, working first as an office boy. Mis- natural aptitude soon won recognition and he has been advanced steadily until he is now a foreman. He is a native of Black Rock and his people for two preceding generations have dwelt in that section. Practf- cally every resident of Black Rock knows him.
 While he holds the confidence and esteem of the older men, he is es- pecially popular among the younger men of the district. He has figured prominently in the affairs of the Black Rock Athletic Club, and he is a leading member of St. Joseph's Tenn perance Society. His district, con- f1dent that his ability is largely re- sponsible for it's numerous improve ments during the last two years, should return him by a substantial majority.

JOHN J. ENNIS

Electors of the Ninth district have cause to be elated at the selection of John J. Ennis as the Democratic nominee for alderman from that sec tion. MT. Ennis is an able repre- sentative of the young man in po1i- tics, 29 years of age, deeply interest ed in public affairs, an able debater and a thoroughly consistent Demo- crat.s MT. Ennis was nominated for aldermanic honors last year, and lost by a close margin, due no doubt to the large personal following of his opponent.

He is especially we'll known among the young voters of the Ninth who will rally to the polls in his sup port in large numbers.

PETER J. CARROLL

Peter J. Carroll, the next alderman from the Seventh district, is nominat- ed in a district that ordinarily rolls up a substantial majority for the Democratic candidate. MT. Carroll is not stranger in politics. In 1902 he was elected alderman from the Sew enth and his two years in the Com mon Council bear the closest scrutiny. He was always found voting for the best interests of the people and for his district. In 1907 he was returned to that body by a substantial major ity.
 MT. Carroll succeeded by his dipIo- matic methods in securing many inn provements for his district that were highly appreciated and it is not so long ago that his constituents will fail to remember what he did during his former terms in the Council

was powerful supporter of the Par cells post, the Income Tax and the Popular Senatorial election bills.
 As an alderman he has sought to conserve the interests of his district faithfully and we'll, and he is willing to stand or fall on the record he has made in the Common Council. His experience in Hartford has stood him in good stead and now he is regarded as among the leading parliamentary ians and speakers of the council
 Alderman Paddock is a natter by trade, and is employed in the Bridge port Hat Co.,, at Main and Golden Hill streets

IRVING BISON

Democrats in that Repuh ncan stronghold, the Fifth district, look for ward with confidence to election day returns over their aldermanic contest, for they have chosen worthy rep resentative in the person of Attorney tive of Bridgeport, but during his brief residence here in the practice of law he has made many friends and has inspired the respect of his large acquaintance.
 Attorney Elson is not a native son, but came ito American shores at the age of >15. He completed his early education in the high schools of New York city. He was graduated from the St. Lawrence University in 1906. and promptly began the practice of law in New York City. In 1909 he removed to Bridgeport, and shortly thereafter married Miss May Neben- zahl, whose family is one of the hest known of the West End.
 Attorney Elson'S attention was di- rected towards municipal affairs tn rough his own property holdings in the Fifth district. He says that he looked to the Republican representa- tiyes of his district in vain for inn provements, and finally had to seek the needed work through the Demo- cratic representatives in the Common Council. Then he began seriously to consider the condition of affairs in the Fifth district.
 The nomination was rendered to him without solicitation but having already entered into a study of affairs mun1- cipal, he was ready to accept it. He is making a personal appeal to the voters of the district and with his well organized campaign victory is not soremote as it might ordinarily be ex- pected to appear in a district normal ly so strongly Republican.
 MT. Bison points out that in his dis trict all improvements have been made for the benefit of the rich, and the districts inhabited by the poor or modest home owners have been neg lected. He proposes, if elected to see that all classes are equally we'll serv- ed.

His friendly attitude towards labor meas ures in the Council called forth for him many expressions of approval from among the toilers, while in all transactions he was guided by a sense of justice and right that won him such approval that the renomination to the Council is his practically at any time for the asking.
