Stratford, Sept. 11.-At a meeting attended by more than a score of citi- zens and taxpayers of Lordship Manor in the town of Stratford last evening, an organization to be known as the Lordship Political association, was formed. The officers eletced were as follows: President, J, E. Phelan; vice president, Merle c. Cow1es; secretary Edward W. Wilson; treasurer, Joseph Reynolds. Twenty-one signed the membership roll, the majority of whom are or will be voters in the town Of Stratford before the coming election. The organization will be independent, but will, it is expected, build up Vot- ing power that will gbe a strong factor in the affairs of Stratford in general and the welfare of Lordship Manor in particular.
 It will not supercede, nor in any way conflict with the aims and endeaVors of the Lordship Proprietors asSoc1a- ton or the Lordship Improvement as- sociation, but will cooperate with and back up the work of these bodies with the added weight and prestige that vote controlling organization can bring to bear.
 The next meeting will be held in the Casino on Wednesday,, the 18th, by which time the membership will be considerably increased.
 Judging from the deep interest all ready manifested by the voters in the town in the registering of CT candi- dates for the different political offices. a lively contest is promised at the coming primary election to be held at the town hall on Tuesday, Sept. 21, from 12 o'clock at noon until 8:30 o'clock in the evening.
