tcontinueo from Page 1.)


 accepting the nomination, he said: ''Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the
 Convention:
 Your committee has notified me of your action in selecting me as your candidate for the office of judge of probate for-the District of Bridgeport, and my first feeling is one of sincere qualification for the unanimous expres- sion of confidence which your action bespeaks.
 ''I thoroughly appreciate tte honor done me today, and that, appreciation is heightened by the knowledge of the importance of the office for which you have nominated me, a knowledge gained from four years experience as clerk, and I say to you gentlemen that in my opinion Sthere is no office more important, no office wbich more inti- mately concerns the material interests of the average citizen. and particularly of these whom he may leave behind when hc shall have passed away, than that of judge of probate.
 'Tn accepting the nomination which you have rendered me, wish to say that if elected. pledge myself to an
 
 the duties, and fulflment of the obli- gations of the office of judge of pro- bate, with this thought constantly in mind, that the paramount duty of the incumbent of the office is the conser- vation of and protection of the inter- ests of those who must have relattonS with him in his official capacity" When the convention had quieted, MT. Mullins, after brief introduction moved that vote of confidence and support be given President Wilson, Homer s. Cummings. candidate for the United States Senatorship, Judge Beardsley, candidate for governor and other members of the state ticket It was voted, amid clapping. Judge Beardsley and several other speakers expressed their views, of the political situation and commended the presi- dent for his policies and his actions.
 The nominee for judge of probate is a young man well known and very popular in this city. His greatest recommendation, however, is his ex- perience in probate matters. n
 MT. Lyons was born in Bridgeport, Aug. IA. 1880, and has lived all his life lLllS5 CIIy. I1c STduudI0u lTOIl the grammer schools and then com pleted course in the Bridgeport High school. H tf
 From the High school, MT. Lyons went to Niagara University where he studied one year. Thence he went to Yale Law school.
 Since graduation he has been prac- ticing law, with the exception of the four years that he spent in the office of Judge of Probate.S where he was assistant to the late Judge Edward F. Hallen. Working on probate law un- der a man of such experience, ability and human qualities as Judge Hallen i, possessed, it is little wonder that MT Lyons soon equipped himself splendid ly for the position which his friends are seeking for him. The many per- sons with whom he came in contact while in the office will testify to his ability.
 Attorney Lyons is married and has two children. He resides at 585 Park avenue.
 After the convention the delegates were the guests of the nominee at a luncheon in The Stratfield.

The army bill, which has finally been
worked through Congress, is not to be
considered a preparedness measure in
any sense of the word. 1t is slight ad-
vance on what the country has had in
the past perhaps, but it is in no way
adequate to the needs of the country.
1t is about like giving patient serious
ly sick few drops of sage tea when
radical remedy is required. 1t will
probably be hailed by supporters of the
administration as genuine measure
but to an old fashioned American who
believes that the best way to keep out
of war is to have the country prepared
to meet any foe in case of real neces-
sity, this new army bill seems to be as
valuable as would be feather buster
in pushing back an avalanche.

The request Of the Central Vermont
railway company to be allowed to COM
plete the Southern New England line
from Palmer to Providence should
arouse particular interest hereabouts
for if this should be done Brattleboro
would be the terminus of much more
important transportation unit than the
southern division of the Central Yer
mont now represents. and shippers in
this section would find their facilities
for doing business greatly increased
Brattleboro Reformer.
1t may not be generally known per
haps but the Central Vermont already
has more money invested in the
Southern New England than it can af
ford to lose. The plan probably is to
put in more money in order to get
something out.

Admiral Henry T. Mayo, who is
scheduled to become commander-in-
chief of the Atlantic squadron some
time in June is a native of Vermont
and his record in the past warrants the
belief that he will be a worthy success
sor of those other two famous Vermont
admirals, George Dewey and Charles
e. Clark. 1t is of more than passing
interest that the little state of Vermont
should furnish three such distinguished
officers to the American navy in so
brief a term of years.

oyne and Cooper were political op-

posites.
When the election was over and
HOyne had been elected as states at
torney, Cooper appointed John E.
Northup, Republican, to investigate
vote frauds supposed to have been
pulled off.
NorthUp was not only a friend Of
Cooper. but he also stood well with
Victor Lawson, publisher of the Daily
News and rival of Hearst in Chi
cagO. So although NOrthup didn't
find out a whole lot about vote
frauds, everything he did expose was
played up heavily by the Daily News
and killed by the Examiner and
American. The rest of the trust
press shifted back and forth, siding
mostly with Lawson, for he is the
big boss among the publishers of
Chicago.
Cooper's special grand jury didn't
get much on Hoyne, but it did serve
to widen the split between the Law
son-Northup-Cooper clique and the
Hearst-Hoyne combination.
In the next chapter Of the tale a
poor ten-dollar-a-week City News
Bureau reporter figured. He was
sent out to cover a meeting of the
bondsmen's club.
When the meeting was over he hui
ried into the office and wrote up a
story that Hoyne had called Cooper
a crook. Every paper printed it the
next morning.
Cooper cited Hoyne for contempt.
Hoyne denied calling him a crook
and the reporter testified that he
heard Hoyne say it, HOyne was SEN
fenced to several days in Jail; he ap-
pealed and the case went to higher
courts, the young reporter was fired
and the feud settled down again.
About this time the Hearst papers
started after COoper's scalp and he
sued from for 100000 The-case is !
still pending in the appellate court,

statements terming the judge prac-
tically as unfit Cooper sued again.
Atty Joseph B. David has figured
in the same fight He has sided with
Cooper and against Hearst always.
Twelve years back in the haze of
newspaperdom, David brought about
the arrest of the editor of the Ex-
aminer for criminal libel because he
made some bitter statements against
Mayor Harrison and his clan.
Harrison had put Hearst out of
the running as candidate for the
Democratic presidential nomination.
The Examiner printed a story that
HarrisOn's secretary had bribed GER
tain delegates to vote against Hearst.
The Examiner retracted on the.
first page the next day and the ed
itOr was freed.
Later, when the Examiner called
John F. O'MaIley, Sullivan Democrat
salOonkeeper, a bunch of bad things,
among which was "a vote fraud art
ist," David was selected to sue the
Examiner. On the 21st of last De-
cember the Examiner mailed David a
check for $8,336.O6 for O'NaIley be-
cause the courts had decided against
Hearst.
When David was nominated along
side Of Cooper a few weeks ago, the
Examiner started after him with the
statement that certain political boss
es were paying for service he had
rendered for them by nominating
him for judge. He wasn't a good man
for the job, the Examiner said.
And David hopeful of repeating his
success against the Examiner, sued
the paper for 100000.
