Democrats are beginning to pick lup courage and express confidence in their ability to put New Britain back into their column at the coming state election. Leaders whose optimism is tempered by conservatiyeness, say that the party will at least cut heav- lily into the republican vote and re- duce the usual G. o. P. plurality Ito nominal figures.
 Hopes, of course, are based on
 possibilities. They expect that eX- Mayor Angelo M. Paonessa will ac- cept the nomination for congress and that George =. Gabb will be nominated for sheriff. These would be two of the biggest trumps the
 party could play in this section.
 Paonessa is a vote getter. He was defeated in his contest against Mayor charged, partly because he was not enthusiastically aided by those whose aid he expected to get. Under this handicap he gave Weld hard battle. His friends are confident that he can make just as,>deep an impression on
 hte voters as candidate for con- gress. Gabb has already held office as county sheriff and enjoys wide popularity with republicans. His popularity is sllkely to be enhanced this year in New Britain because the republican county convention re- nominated Sheriff Dewey in the face of earnest appeals from the New Britain delegates to name House. Regular republicans will vote for Dewey but there are many, 1t is be- lieved, who will cast their votes for Gabb.
 Republicanism was strengthened this week when it was announced that, contrary to expectations, Sen- ator Edward r. Hall would accept renomination. Mir. Hall commands wide circle of friends and has per sonal following which is valuable asset to any candidate for office. It is generally believed that he would make a stronger appeal than E. w. Christ. who said at the republican state convention that he would pro- bably accept the nomination but who changed his mind. In Hall and Judge B. w. filling. candidate for attorney general, the republicans have two strong men in the race. It would be interesting to note whether the Paonessa-G -Gabb combination could overcome the AllingHall com bination and melt down the plurality which republicans have looked to New Britain to furnish.

The fans who sit by the ringside and wisecrack as the fistic gladl- ators of more or less ability settle their little dsagreements in the squared circle, have little on the political fans who tilt their chairs against the walls of the common council chamber and make obser- vations on the procedure of that dignified and august body.
 Seldom do these remarks appear in print. One passed last Wednes- day in which Alderman J. Gustav Johnson was the person under dis cussion caused officials to laugh a little louder and Q little longer than usual. By way of prefacing the anecdote, Johnson is a republican who has found little support among democrats and who has had the temerity to openly oppose his re- publican brethren. AS result he has been left high and dry when his resolutions came to vote. We'd nesday night he moved for adop- tion of pet resolution, and Mayor Weld addressing the council, said:
 Those in favor vote in the usual manner"
 When Johnson was the only one to vote "aye," an observer sung out: Johnson has voted in the usual manner all alone.'
