DEFEAT RTAlN
 FOR E. J. HILL
Shepard, Progressive Candidate Tells Bridgeport Busi-
 ness Men.

Defeat is certain for E.. J. HILL 2, declared George F. Shepard of Beth. gress from this district. in speech. made ito the Business Men of Bridge port at the headquarters of the Pro- gressive party in the Sagal building last night.
 ssThere is a strong note Of dissat- isfaction all through the county with the Republican candidate for Con- gress It is recognized that he stands for the Republican party no matter how much it goes wrong by the mis- rule of the bosses He has freely made the statement, that he could not be pried out of the party with a crow bar, said MT. Shepard.
 want to call your attention to the. very true and opportune statement of Job Hedges one of the RepubIi- can nominees for Governor Of New York on the primary election. when in the heat of his campaign he eff fectively exposed the rottenness of the Republican boss-rule conditio ons and spIendid1y vindfcated and justi- fled the existence of the Progressive Party.
 Now I want to ask you, did E. J. Hill ever raise his voice, as MT. Hedges. a Republican, did, against the wrongs Of his own party? Never On the contrary MT. EIIl1 approves and fndorses the reprehensibfe boss ruled Republican convention deal at Chicago of 1912. the very thing MT. Hedges con- dernfs.
 Last December at a banquet in Bridgeport, after the knowledge Of the footing of the New York and New FIaL- ven railroad was publicly known, <E. J. -FIill made a speech in which he pictured the system as the victim of persecution and advised the people of Connecticut not to aid the federal government in it's investigation of that crime. but to let up on the New Hay- ven railroad
 sshIy Republican friends how long are you going to indorse that sort of representative in legislation?
 f'It is not reasonable or logical to expect honest legislation from either boss ruled or big crooked business ruled 1egisIat tors.s'

Governor Grants Pardon.

Governor Hays has granted a par don to J. K. Russell of Lafayette county, who was convicted at the Au- gust term, this year, of manslaughter, and sentenced to two years in the pen itentiary. He had taken an appeal, which was pending in the Supreme Court, and which was dismissed Mon day upon the granting of the pardon.
 Russell is 56 years old and had re- sided in Fafayette county since 1859. He had always been considered a good, quiet, peaceable citizen, and his pardon was recommended by portion of the county officials, and practically every white male citizen of the coun- ty, there being 763 names on his pc tition. He was convicted of having killed J. T. Conner, and the petition CTS say among other things:
 "The homicide of which he was con- victed occurred on his own farm and close to his residence. The deceased was drinking and abusive toward him, and if the provocation was not legal ly sufficient to justify the killing 1t was at least aggravating to a degree which mitigated his action. as shown by the verdict"

FIELD MARSHAL "BCBS"DEAD

London.-The death of Field Mar shal Earl Roberts Saturday evening in France was extremely sudden. He was in his usual health when he left England on Wednesday with his daughter, Lady Aileen Roberts, and his son-in-law, Major Levin. The party had rough trip crossing the English channel, but the aged general felt no i'll effects and went through with his program on the continent. In fact he was about to return home when his death occurred.
 Earl Roberts had motored to the British bases and camps, had review ed the Indian troops and had con- ferred with the leading officers. It was not until about dinner time Fri. day evening that he complained of a slight chill. As he was subject to trif. ling chest troubles, he followed his usual course and went to bed early. As his temperature increased medical men were called in and pronounced his condition critical. They relieved the general of his pain and he fell asleep. lis death occurred as he slumbered.
