THE UNCOMMON SQUARE DEAL

THE people want the truth. They
are tired of truth half told and
truth exaggerated. Some of the lead
ing newspapers of the state are do
ing more to discredit newspaper in
fluence than they can imagine. Read
ers are becoming disguised. Papers
with statewide circulation have
adopted the policy of coloring news
and editorial comment to influence
politics and the people are coming
to the point where they have to guess
at the truth after they read what
the papers tell about the campaigns.
Frequently the Observer hears the
complaint that newspapers cannot be
trusted or believed. Even when the
newspaper one reads advocates the
candidate of ones own preference,
there is no dependence to be put in
its news reports. 1t is probably over
stating the facts favorable to that
particular candidate.

tions, and we believe there will soon

Sunday Recreation.
LGrcentield Recorder.

The signing of the Sunday sports bill
by Governor Coolidge clears the way for
amateur baseball on Sunday in towns
and cities which accept the provisions of
the act. Dire prophecies have been made
tf the effect of such law on reverence
for the Sabbath, but it is not likely that
they will prove true. We are not now
departing from the old New England
Sabbath; we did that long ago, when
people first decided that there was moth
ing particularly sinful in taking ear
riage ride on Sunday. Prior to that
change in sentiment the only ride which
could be taken on the Sabbath without
causing comment was the journey to the
meeting house and back.
But that idea was an absurdity, Just
like many of the other Sunday customs
which ran back to the early days of the
Pilgrims. 1t was once an ofiense against
the law for man to kiss his wife on
Sunday, and sea captain, returning
from a long voyage on Il Sabbath morn

his forgctfulness he had to spend a few
hours in the stocks as an example tC
others who might be tempted to commit
this heinous crime.

Connecticut and Suffrage.

1t must require a queer and most I'M
usual twist III a mans mental equipment
to enable him to act in the summary and
dlctatorial manner which has character,
ized Governor Holcomb of Connecticut in
hls response to the almost unanimous de-
mand OF Republican state conven-
ton that he call the legislature in
special session in order that the
state may ratify the woman suffrage
amendment, and thus insure that
the women OF those states lacking pres
idential suffrage law shall be given the
ballot IN time to use it III the approaching
national election.
Governor llolcomb, however, has not
only houted his own party convention.
but be has likewise ignored the request
OF a majority of both houses OF the Con
necticut Legislature, the request Of the
chairman of the Republican national
committee, and the demands OF the
women Of his state, but he Is willing ap-
parently TO 90 down in history as the
one governor who stubbornly stood IN the
way of complete enfranchisement of
American women this year The one
governor who would not yield his personal
views before the Judgment Of tWo-thirds
majority of both houses of congress, and
the legislatures OF thirty five Of the states
OF the union. 1t would be hard to find
| a parallel for such a case Of purblind
| egotlsm
| Governor Holcomb's myielding attitude
! also threatens Connecticut with the I'M.
enviable and unjust charge Of being the
only Republican state to deny plain
justice to the women Of America Every
state thus far which has refused to ratify
the Anthony amendment has been Demo
cratic Almost all of the ratifying states
are controlled by Republican legislatures
| This is record in which Republicans may
not only take great pride, but one which
has III 1T great party prestige. The iirst
great reform which the Republican party
promised upon being restored to contro
Of congress was the passage of the sui
