 There is one convincing sign of the desperate character Of the attempt to load him back on to the congress sionaI pay roll. He had to have as a sort of political sponsor. so to speak, the chairman of the Republican na- tional committee, to attend the coa- ventien that nominated him Other wise that convention would probably have been in session still suffering the torments of disturbed spirits in being forced to listen to one of those never ending continued-in-our-n ext, talks from statistical F1benezer.
 National Chairman Hil1es adTninis- tered the customary political sa1ve ap- plication in his speech to the de1e- gates. Like whole lot Of other Re- publican leaders, gazing wistfully and Iongingly at congressional patronage. ignoring altogether patriotic princi- pies when political pap is in the dis- tance, he twisted and tortured facts and figures, in his customary partisan and l1nreasoning and unreasonable att tack, on the national administration. That is what he was there, for. That is what he is paid for, to intentionally naisrepresent the Democratic party, the Democratic adaninstration, and Democratic principles.

 want to take the credit from him and give it to a political organization. To
 hear some people talk one would think thai they believe that it is the Euro

CIew Haven Union-1
 They've put the old Calamity Ho wIer and Prophet into the con gressional race again down in Fair field county. The Republicans really couldn't help it. He has been plead ing to be nominated, and he has a wild notion that the Republican cleo tors in that Fourth district will lose their senses long enough on election day to try to return him to Washing ton. It is pitiful to watch the po7 lfticaI antics Of an individual who has been politically repudiated by his fel- low party men and citizens generally, cIa moriJla for another opportunity to draw salary from the national gov eminent, He is possessed of the idea that the country can't get along without hira He 1abors under the made in the tariff laws of the nation, he ds the only one, the solitary Re publican for the job. Isn't that ego tism for you2 Isn't it tiresorne? Ands sorry it is to have to say 1t, there are deluded members of his party, men under ordinary circumstances posses sing sound sense, who have got 1t into their heads that Ebenezer Hill of Norwalk is the only man in the United States who can handle the tariff and kindred questions that come before Congress.
 We'll his begging and his petition ing and his cries for he nomination have been heard, and after all per- haps it is just as well that the Re- publican machine of the Fourth dis trict has named him once more for Congress.

Hi1l for their candidate for cdngress in the Fourth district, which is now limited to Fairfield county, the Republicans bring squarely to the front the oppor- tunity for the voters Of this section to pass upon the question of free trade as compared with protection.-Bridge- port Post.
 E The esteemed Post can hardly mean that, because there is no one in this state who favors free trade and fur thermore the country could not have it if it wanted it. The Post cannot mean that the present tariff bill is a free trade measure, because MT. Hill has stated on the platform in New Britain that he has no complaint against the Underwood measure, so- called ,and if it was what the Post intimates it is he would not make such a statement.

1The .Stamford Mornlnr Nevvs1

lThe Stamford Morning Ne1vs0
 The Fourth District Republican Convention held in Stamford on Sat eurday did its share in closing up one of the important open spaces on the ticket which the Republican party will present for the approval Of the voters on the third day Of November
 Ebenezer J. EKtn was nominated by exclamation and the action of the con vention was really a foregone concIu- sion. His election, however, is far from being considered more than a possibility and even guess, for before Mr. Hill consented to stand he was as- sured Of the Progressive partyss en- dorsement and history now records that the attempt to negotiate the ap- prova1 of that wideawake body for our former congressman was not a success. It is true, Gutzor Borglum of Stamford, led the Hi1I wing Of the Progressives at the recent Bridgeport committee meeting but his support CTS were outflanked and nearly, if not entirely ottgeneraled by the Pro gressives who held out for the preser- walton of that party's identity. When the proposition to endorse the prob- able candidacy of MT. Hill was ad- vanced, it was met by the positive candidacy for congressional honors of one of their own members, George F. Shepard, of Bethel, and whose norni- nation is secured without a contest.
 The problem now up to the nanag- CTS Of the Hill campaign is, How to cheapen MT. Shepard,s bid for the berth held by Congressman Donovan and how to capitalize the pledge of MT. Borglum's support. What per centage of the total Progressive vote does the pledge Of Mir. RorgIum carry with it, and what excuse can be of fered by the ProgressiveE for their hoped for repudiation of the candi- their party in favor of the Repub1i- can. MT.
