sORDID REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP.

HE Republican leadership of Connecticut IS not o1 quality
 to inspire admiration Its several elements are provd-
 ing valuable criticism, which completely relieves Dem ocrats of the necessity for doing anything of the kl4d
 Democratic policy in Connecticut this year IS concerned with obtaining maximum amount of unity for the support of the war If harmony be shattered let it be shattered by MT. Roraback and Mr. King.
 Politics has indeed sordd when leader accuses he others trading the life of the and the others reply Mayor Wilson ought not to be lieutenant governor again because of the notorious affair of the Baby Doll the negro dive keeper.
 In this controversy Mr. Roraback has somewhat the best of the situation in logic and Mr. King courage. It would be dct to prove that Rorabac anticipating the death of the governor Mir King declares the upstate leaders are dog H would be comparavey easy to the facts connected with Baby Doll and it difficult to prevent full sideraion connected with this dive keeper when election joined if Mayor Wilson were the candidate
 is not to supposed that the upstate conscience is so tender actually resens the alliance between negro dive keeper and Republican politics. There must be many such a ances that politics and dive keepers not necessarily negro.
 But Baby Doll burden He did exist The facts are of record They be easily proved and something could be them But upstate prudence probably IS concerned none with getting rid of ocomb than with deep fear of the election day consequences of the Baby Doll exposures
 In midst of this intrigue Governor Hocomb is bright spot He old he is clean He has been enthusiastically loyal the truth could be known, Roraback wants him little as King.
 It up the Democrats to nominate strong and loyal man. Republican quarres develop the defeat of Hocomb might occur which event the Democracy should have an absolutely reliable
 The very argument the governors advanced years red to the polls by powerful faction of Republicans might beat him. the last election the state Republican only by few thousand most of which obtained in Fairfield county which is the seat of disaffectiOn.
 The governor awful load to carry. If he is eim by death the state will be turned to the most sOrdd elements to do they please with.

ALIEN PATRIOTISM.

c TIRNG indeed in these troublous times is the evidence - of Americas performing its function as the worlds great
 melting pot, ex6mpfed in the entertainment given by the graduates and pupils of the parocha school of St. Johns Slovenian Catholic Church.
 These exercises attended by hr6ng of the Slovenian American element of Brdgeports population and by many noabe in public life the city nation evoked great enhu- siasm but more than their excellence deserved.
 Under the unirng leadership of the Rev. Andrew E. Komara the Slovenian Catholics of Bridgeport have forged from humble beginnings into important place in the religious and civic life of thee y Evidence of this fact is to be found the splendid properties that the parish has accumulated the least important of which the large building used both school and civic center for this hcy populated econ Appre catng perhaps than many Americans the vantages of their found democracy these demonstrated their realization of these advantages by making of them The facilities education and for partci- patton in the civic life of the city which placed within reach of these people have beenp Ut to good rising generation who becoming leaders the industrial and commercial life of the city.
 Prominent guests such the president of the chamber of the chairman of the bureau others similar prestige paid deserved tribute to the accomplishments people through their attendance the commencement exer cses.
 These exercises gave opportunity public recogn ton of the civic services of Father Komara The spiritual guide of his flock he is also their temporal adviser and loyal friend His patriotic Amercansm is reflected in the sponta niety of the responses of his people Amerca appeals for operation in aims The generosity of the Slavonans in various financial drives for patriotic ends been uniformly indicative of true Americanism
 The spirit of Americanism carried out in the commence ment exercises inspiring that unfortunate many thousands did not have the opportunity witness them Yet the CzechoSova policy of President shows that Amer ca is not blind to the worth of these citizens Uncle Sam knows that they make for Americans of the type worthy o carry the stars and stripes to the final victory.

The war with its insistent demands for money

The war with its insistent demands for money sympathy and aid is never far away from our thoughts We who are far distant from the actual scenes, who are living quietly and without serious inconvenience, find it difficult to realize under what stress those who are actually at the front may be. Of course we are willing to help. The plan for a National War Savings Enlistment Day is upon us. Every patriotic American will be asked to prove his patriotism by signing pledge to buy definite number of War Stamps or Thrift Stamps each month this year. It is good investment. The money will be returned to us with interest No one will hesitate as to whether it is worth while or not Every dollar raised is to be used to fur ther our war aims We must win, and we will win sooner if every person will do his utmost. What matter if we do not save anything for ourselves. Whatever we have will be of no to us personally unless the war is won. And this is saving plan of the best kind.
