A Democratic WranRle

as ever. N'.
 A Democratic Wranele
 The Democratic state committee meeting held this week to promote harmony in the Democratic partv fr thls state resulted in 8 displsv If m feeling and distrust which will f eo,,' tihued' make a Democratic victory next year impossible. That there were aiiierenees, and serious ones too. in the party was we'll known. but few thought that the leaders of the party would be so indifferent to eonseauenc- es or so tactless as to engage in a yer oal quarrel that was characterized h,- III manners and impoliteness of speeeh that would have disgraced a street bfawi The exhibition in New Haven was an object lesson in the way to de stroy the influence of the Democratic party m the state. The cause was traceable to the last Democratic na- tlonal convention in New York. It is about a year and four months since that convention was held, and that the canse should he remembered to this day and that t should be provoea- tive of irritation and i'll will among Democrats, shows how deep seated fl IS. Since the meeting on Thursday observing Democrats, who are loyally interested in the welfare of their par ty, despair of the success of their par tvs state ticket at the polls in 1926 If the questions involved in the quar- rel had been discussed with temper 4g in Ia fah sk blanee of politeness. the effect would not be so destructive of the Democrat ic hopes.
 There were women members of the state central committee present. but their presence was not regarded in the talk. The thousands of women who vote the Democratic ticket did not think that their party questions could be discussed at a meeting of the state central organization in such a violent manner. The temperemental display was humiliating to Democratic voters and particularly to the women of the party who have higher ideals of pro priety. Ii will not be questioned that the Democratic party stood stronger with the voters of the state before the meeting than afterwards. The want Of confidence in their leaders is more among the rank and file of Democrats than before the meeting The best thing that could happen the Democratic party Is the retirement of the leaders until the internal differ ences in the party were composed. The meeting played into the hands of the Republican party, and il made it much easier for that party to win next year. Personally the Democratic leaders are estimable, kindly gentle men and as men of affairs they inspire confidence in their methods and judg- ment. But politics at best Is often an irritating game, and those who play uneonsciousiy. yield to the temptation to be discourteous though, in their personal bearing, they may be models of courtesy.

The Royal Indemnity Company bonded Gilnatrie as exeeutor under the will of the late Joseph W. Cut Ter, and the United States Fidelity < Guaranty Company bonded Gilpatrie as trustee under the wil. \ disputed question was whether Gilpatric ever qualified as trustee under the will and had filed his final account as executor. II be had done both the entire liability would fall on the United States Fi- delity < Guaranty Company, t was claimed.
 Did Not Qualify
 The decision in finding joint lia- bilities as between the two bonding companies holds that Giipatric did not complete his exeeutorship in 1921 as claimed by the Royal Company and did not qualify as trustee. The Royal Company claimed that the United States Company should be held lia- ble for the entire deficit. and the United States Company claimed that 1t was liable for only s7.000.
 Judge Simpson pro rated the expen- ditures from the estate. which were not capable of being traced to either the real estate fund or the personal trust fund, between the two bonding companies according to their "prima facie" liability

Editorial nanieison Transcript
 Yesterday was A big day for the city of Putnam. and our neighbors to the north certainly did the job to per lection. When the news got around that a new bridge was to be construct ed. movement was immediately started to have the structure erected as memorial Co the men of Putnam who fought and died in the world con- flict of i9t4-i9is. A town meeting voted to appropriate sum Co cover the extra cost of honor roll tablets and other special features, and committees went to work with n will to arrange n program which would be remembered until the last of the present inhabi- tants had passed on. How well they succeeded Is known by each and every person who witnessed the parade and exercises. Without doubt if was one of the biggest celebrations ever held in d town of the same size in Connec- ticut.
 The holding of such an event on Armistice Day cannot help but add dignity to the anniversary of the close of the war. a date which has received too little recognition in our state. To the great host of men who fought on the battlefelds of France. and to the mothers. wives and sweethearts who had the harder lot of waiting in sus- rense at home. there is no date m his tory more worthy of commemoration' The zest with which the Putnam pro gram was carried through has already given new inspiration to the city g Legion Post, torn with internal dis- sension, and 1t has taken a new lease of life. To Putnam the affair Will prove to be a good investment in ad- yertising and good will and to sur rounding towns such an exhibition of ratriotism and appreciation of service i for the country will be an incentive to do as much. Danielson, without jeai, ousy but In a spirit of friendliness and 1 fellowship in great cause.-the wei fare of our glorious nation-eongratu- lates Putnam on it's Big Day.
