THE "CONTROL'

-
 For many years this newspaper has strfven humbly to represent the Democratic party, its principles, it's aspirations and it's progress In these later days it reads the columns of some of it's contemporaries with an amazenent born of doubt
 One Contemporary declares that the party of Jefferson in Bridgeport is controlled by "the. organization. ' which theIzEams unfailing authority says is controlled" by three men.
 Another journal speaks of the Democracy of Bridgeport as being in the hands of those ''who control the votes" and. occasionally of those who are ''the administration,' all of which is difficult to follow.
 If the Democratic party were in fact controlled by three men it would no longer be democratic, and if the votes of the party, of which there are some 5000 In Bridgeport, were 'tqoHtrolled" except by the con- sciences, reason and will of the vot. CTS. there would equally be no demo- eraey. As for the administration, that is Republican.
 It looks a little as if our contem. poraries are misinformed. We hasten to assure them that the Democratic party is not controlled by three men, hut by it's. voters, and that. the votes of- these voters are pot controlled by anybody excepting themselves, but we are willing to admit that the next administration will be Democratic, in nation. city and state.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-08-22
THE SUCKING HORSE

Mr.. Roosevelt seems to be sound enGughA upon the point that his or ganization cannot consistently en- dorse those who are against the measures for which it stands. His orders not to nominate congressmen who favor Taft, or endorse them, will be a sad blow to MT. Hill. who had hoped to have one foot upon Taft and. the other upon the Bull Moose.
 lA4f. FffIl enjoys the earned reputa- ton of being Connecticut's sturdiest foe of the principles enunciated at Baltimore, and in the second Chicago convention. a
 Ais to the income tax, he was one efo14 men alone in Congress to oppose the copstitutional amendment under which such a tax might be laid.
 -Theo initiative, and referendum he hates with an awful hatred
 It is pretty tough to have to ride two horses, but it is tougher to wish to ride. them and not be able to, be- cause one is bqcker.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-08-22
DEFECTIVE PROOF

sThe Board of Contract and Supply has produced an elaborate table, with which. it attempts to prove that it. is sffecting a saving of 31 per cent on purchases.
 s The table shows a number of arti- c;es, with the cost thereof, what was paid for articles of the same name last year, and the estimated amount Ehat will be paid for articles of the -azTe name this year. provided pur- chessss4 are ieentifuedf Il on the same s9sl at9iH ssoaf sE5 ri betse
 The evidence of saving is, not suf- fcients to constitute proof.
 The table fails to. show that the ar tieies. are of the same quality Pants, fof Ihstahce, is an elastic term. Pants values range-from just plain plants t5 A6tHsers worth si5 2 pair. So with such an item as oil of vitriol, which is sold at number of degrees of at- tenuation for prices that vary ac- nQxdinG to the density of the acid
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-08-22

Another serious defect is the failure to estimate the cost of making pur- chases into the price paid for the goods.
 The table shows the belief of the board that it will, before the end of the year. have purchased $S.o82 worth of the specified goods at an estimated saving of s9s2.
 Roughly speaking the cost of main taining the Board of Contract and Supply has passed the ss,ooo mark this year.
 There nyhst be a saving of $3,ooo on former purchase prices of goods of identical quality before there will be any saving at all. Under the earlier plan of making purchases. each department bought it's own supplies. without charge for the mere act of buying.
 The proof is defective in the further ludI IL6 L6p4S OOCS AAOI show the state of the market last year for the goods purchased. Markets fluctuate. An article bought in a lower market, would be so bought under any system of purchase, and no saving would be credited to the new plan.
 There is no claim here that the Board of Contract and Supply may not be able to save the city money, over and above the expense of conducting the board, but the task will be more difficult than the creators of the board probably believed. The object of this editorial is sim ply to indicate that if an actual sav- l ing has been made. it has not been shown So far as the evidence goes the community will be warranted in eupposing that there is up to this time an actual loss flowing from the op- erations of the board. That is. accepting its own figures lthe board has made a saying of sssa
