William Redden of the 11th dis trire1 and the 22nd Senatorial district, has been selected to succeed Alexan- der L. Delaney, state senator, as state central connitte teeman from that district.
 Mir. Delaney declined to act on the state central committee due to his pressing law practice that will keep him busy daily from now until next January.
 Delaney a year ago found the con- dition of the city more than he could stand, and he arrayed himself against the machine of his party. His stand played an important part in securing the election of reform adn1inistra- tion. He is paying the penalty, it is said, for preferring his party to the
 Connor Is leader of the Republican party in the Twelfth District. He was tax commissi oner for Bridgeport for some years, and in the center of the fight to reform the taxing meth ods. Many Republicans, owners of proper ty, asserted that the tax office was used to strengthen the political ma chine.
 He is however a leader too strong to be put aside. William H. Redden, Is a well known lawyer, highly re- spected. He is prominent in the Knights of Columbus and other ord- CTS.
 Arthur F. Connor, one of Kings right hand men, has been chosen to succeed himself on the state central committee from the 23rd Senatorial convention.
 The appointing of the state central committeeman took place Thursday noon at the Stratfield Hotel where conclave of Republican leaders and representatives from the Senatorial districts was hetd. The fact that the appointments were made at that time was not made known.

 It appears from the testimony of- fered today from Mccoy and his wife, Madeline, that Mrs. Warner, alias tJessie," was of questionable char acter, having lived with various bargemen from time to time and was known to associate with barge men whenever they arrived in Bridgeport Mccoy said that he became drunk yesterday and about l o'clock went tC bed The first that he knew of the woman being on the boat was when he was awakened by the officers who told him that a woman was drowned My God, said Mccoy I would have jed to save her if I knew anything to-"

 killed two detectives, went cheerfully to his death in the electric chair. lie ate heartily. walked brislkly to chair, smiled as was strapped down, said good bye to the prison doctors and passed on. Perhaps his appearance of courage was a mask. an effort to die game, a proof of the power of a. limited quantity of mind over matter. The abler man, the more sportsman like his death; as a rule. There are exceptions.
 In America thousands have been judicially killed. Do the legal killings . prevent the illegal killings? What sort of men do the illegal killings? Some have uniformed. poorly nour- ished or diseased brains Would hanging a dog. prevent other dogs from killing? The other dogs would not understand, or If they understand they cannot restrain the blood lust.
 The temptation to kill comes In weaker or stronger form to all men. It is an inheritance from remotest ancestors. Some who have brains with which to understand. and strong enough for restraint. are aided by the knowledge that if they kill illegally. they may be legally killed.
 It is hard to be sure that sucn movements are not right. They al ways seem to be~wrong in the oegln- ming. but they often seem rignt m the end. The early Christian seemed much meaner to the Roman 1ntell1- gence, than Bolshevists seem to us, and the Romans treated them worse By burning, boiling in oil, GruciIlNlon' throwing them to the wild beasts, Roman rulers exhibited the1r op1nlon of the Christians, while the Roman population for more than three cen turies applauded every cfuelly.
 Henry Ford will smile when he reads that the Pennsylvan1a rallroao has ordered locomot1ves or heavles. Ford Built them light. He has com; peHed nearly everybody else to build them light. Heavy cars are oe1ns turned in every day, for light ones Autom obile dealers know that. Ask Louis Pawlett, Rotarian, and auto mobile engineer.
 Railroads carry too much weigh of every sort. Too many f1nanc1ers too much debt, too many strikes, ana heavy competition with automobiles Hauling around those heavy trains with their inordinately heavy loco motives, is tremendous waste. whicl must some day be ended, or railroad! will be ended.
