a,
 In the preface to this resolution, the members call attention to their qualifications as loyal members of the party, and then to those of MT King as national committeeman. declaring that he should endeavOr to bring to- gether the various factions. rather
 than to adopt an attitude and make attacks of a kind which have been largely responsible Tor the falling off in Connecticuts Republican majority from 45,0 900 to 1000
 The resolution adopted reads: Be it resolved, that as we keenly feel
 the unjust, insulting, personal at
 tacks upon our party leaders, and especially resent the attitude of the national committeeman, and mindful
 that such an action is not conducive
 to keeping peace and harmony in the
 Republican party and Is detrimental
 to the welfare of united Republican
 ism in this state; that since John King by his own admission is not the
 one who will exert himself to bring
 about peace and harmony in the Re
 publi can ranks, that he resign in
 favor of some one who can, in the
 best interests of the party
