Hartford, June 30.

The attitude of the Democratic lead CTS among the Connecticut delegates at the national convention in New York was distressingly painful to the rank and file of the democracy of the state. The preponderating majority of the Democrats favored the nomina- tion of Governor Smith and they were for him first, last and all the time. The state leaders of the party disregarded the sentiment which they were SUD- posed to represent, and by their tae- tics created the impression that Con- necticut was not for Smith. Of the prominent leaders Mayor Richard J. kinsella of Hartford. Dr. Dolan of Manchester, Judge William E. Thoms and Peter Fitzhenry of Waterbury. were the only ones who were stead fastly unshakable for the nomination of the idol of the New York democracy. The dissatisfaction with the conduct of the leaders was particularly noticeable in Hartford and the expressions Of dis satisfaction had no uncertain sound. The result is that confidence Tn the leaders who showed that they prefer red McAdoo to Smith has been shat tered. The state leader. who comes out of the convention with increased popularity, is Judge Thoms. He was conspicuously true to the sentiment of the democracy of the state, and his loy- alty to the wishes of the Democratic voters will be remembered to his sd- vantage at the state convention few months hence. His honest, faithful consistency will be rewarded by the nomination for governor in spite of the hostility of the discredited leaders. It viii not be accepted as an excuse that the convention did not pledge the dele gates to any particular candidate at the national convention. Everyone knows that the sentiment of the con- vention in New Haven on May 24 was for Smith and that it failed of express sion because of the crushing power of the steam road roller. This fact IS we'll known throughout the state, and it will not soon be forgotten. The de- mocracy of Connecticut is controlled by persons who are not in sympathy with it's sentiments and who have no respect for the predilections of Demo cratic voters.
 Bright Outlook For Republicans
 The Republicans ought to have no difficulty in rolling up majority of 40. 900 or 50,000 for their state ticket this year. The Democratic party Tn the state is entirely disorganized. The rank and file have lost confidence Tn the sagacity of the leaders and they have no faith in their political single-

 and Replaces Lenses

4 novel and perhaps unique type of theft was related to the Patriot reporter this week. While attending local theatre last Sunday evening local young man left his Ford parked on a downtown street. When he re- turned to his car he started the engine and pushed the light switch, only to find that the light did not go on. In- vestigation showed that someone had removed the lenses, taken out the bulbs from both headlights. and then put the lenses back on again.
