In a most faithful and consclentious manner has Judge Nelson J. Avling presided over the court of probate in this district. With unfailing courtesy, moderate charges In the settling of estates, ever-ready and thoughtful ad- vice and assistance to those with whom he deals, the great advantage of experlence, and strict attention to duties without the distraction of out- side offices, he is an ideal candidate, and it is time the district gave him such an indorsement that it will de- termine the belief that Judge A¥ling is the choice of all the people. He is the nominee of three parties today. His record is a bulwark of strength. Return him to office by a handsome maJority REPRESENTATIVES. False representations against a can- didate mever accomplish what they re intended to, but become a boomer- ang to the maker.

Getting to the polls early is a good habit it decreases the rush at the noon hour and in the last moments, If Woodrow Wilson is elected presi- dent today because of republican folly all of New England will have reason to be sorry of The man who doesn’t believe in the voting machine is very like the men who do not believe in the cash regis- ter or public The returns will be very uninterest- ing to some of us tonight; but we can go home early and forget our disap- pointment in sleep. No republican should vote for Wil- son to make sure of defeating Roose- velt. It can be most effectively done voting for Tatt. None of us destroy are going to vote today the country, for we all be- in saving it; but how many dif- ferent ways we have of doing it. The reasons some men give for changing their politics are mo better than the boys give to get off to foot- ball games, and not half as funny, Taft belleves in the people. He has no grievance if the people decide to- day to make someone else president. As history his four years' record will shine. Pull the second lever or put a cross in the republican column circle and you will make no mistake. From top to bottom, it's an excellent selection of candidates. An American citizen ought to be ashamed to neglect his duty today. It is more manly to express your spite at the polls than to let important re- sults go by default The voter should enter the election booth with the president’s admonition in mind that the giving of power to THE BULLETIN’S SHORT STORY. WORK OF ART - e e e e e e e c Mrs, Whitney raised her eves from her embroidery and glanced out of the window. Then she leaned forward, letting her work drop to her knees, and fixed her gaze on some object in the street. A moment later she feil back ltmp in her chair. “T knew it! I felt it coming!” moaned. “Oh, Henry, Henry!” Her cousin Katherine rushed across the room and peered anxiously out of the window, expecting to see mothing less tragical then the head of the household being borne home on a stretcher. Instead, she saw that per- son walking briskly down the street, apparentiy in all his pristine vigor and bearing a package of huge propor- tions. This package he placed carefully on the step while be fumbled for his Iatehkey. “Dear. me, Helen, what a_start you gave m complained Cousin Katherine. “What in the world is the matter? Mrs. Whitney sat up very straight and spoke grimly in measured accents. “Henry Whitney has been to another auction sale.” she C in Katherine looked somewhat nettled. “Well, really, Helen,” she said, “I don't see why it should excite so.

Whitney entered with the ineffable smile of one who says to himself: “T have a preciou ecret to divulge—all in my own good time.” He crossed the room with a perfunctory greeting to his wife and her guest and deposited his burden affectionately in the corner on a couch. Then he produced a p knife from his pocket and proceed: got ever has brought home a | to cut the strings which bound its pa- per wrappings. Layer after layer he removed amid a tense silence.

Send King by a rousing cid-time republican majori Cuba did well, and it is no wonder President-elect Menocal was elated over her conduct at the election. It is the settlement of such questions with- out the bullet which is going to help the new republic most. She deserves congratulations. Of the adult wage-earners in Eng- land 32 per cent. receive less than 35 a week; 42 per cent. earn less than 38.52; and only 6 per cent. get over $10 Straight competition with such wages means that American wage earners must come down to the same level. The country sees in banks $4,500,000,000 today; but if tar- iff for revenue wins they will not be there four years from today. The Taft administration leaves them at the high tide of deposits, to say nothing of the millions in the postal savings OTHER VIEW POINTS The appearance of Senator McLean in the Connecticut campaign is a joy to all, whether they agree h his political arguments or not. He is the sort of campaigner who makes peopie believe in his party through belief in him, and makes them enjoy being con- vinced—New Haven Register. Governor Hadley measures up to those standards which are dear to the Americar people. He is a progressive republican and combines the practical and idealistic to the extent of remain- ing loyal to those who had a right to expect. his loyalty so long as he did ns have to sacrifice honor.—Meriden Rec- ord.

The victory which they seem to have won over the unspeakable Turk will in- sure, at any rate, decent treatment for the Macedonian Christians, who have long been the cruel victims of Turkish brutality.—Waterbury American. The United States Express company says it can't pay its regular semi-an- nual dividend because of the establish- ment of the parcels post—which, by the way, is not yet in operation. But even s passing of a dividend may not especially distress those who use ex- press service—Providence Tribune. 1f there are republicans who, as has been repcried, propose to show their antagonism to Roosevelt by voting for Wilson, of course they must be willing | to accept the result in case Wilson ix | elected. Such an outcome would be |littie_else than a betrayal of protec- tion by his friends.—Ansonia Sentinel | France, in league now with Russia, | will not help to trim the bears cla | but Germany, Austria and Italy stand | together, and England. in the shadow, | watches every move on the ches | board. So there will always be fight- ing in the Balkans until the “sick man”breathes no more.—Hartfgrd Post. A despatch from Washington yester- | | day said a gigantic statue of Truth| ighing 25 tons has just been put in place in that city. Such a statue was | badly needed in that city, but we bet a fig it is dumb and will never speak | the truth. More lles of one kind and another come from Washington than | almost any city in the world. The | statue ought to stand in the grounds | of the department of agriculture, or | the weather bureau, where the truth | is badly needed—Middletown Sun. eEe | Tne Urited States army is in tne | best health it has ever known.

He is an old soidier and a citizen and patriot of sterling type. He is_liberal and broad minded, always affable and approachable. That he wili se elected Tuesday seems certain.— New Britain Record. Removing the tariff on beef and cat- tle will not bring real rellef, nor ma- terially alter the situation, it seems, thoug that is one of the measures that probably will be adopted in the near future. The operations of the American packers should be more fully explored with a view to stamping out an unwholesome monopoly and a free interchange of commodities between the United States and the great cattle producing countries should be devel- aped in order that the American con- sumer may obtain that which has be- come a scarcity with us—grass fed beef of the best quality—and at prices that are reasonable as prices go nowadays. If, as reported, we have to reckon with international monopely, the problem is the more difficult to cope with, but the government should leave no stone inturned to effect the relief desired.— Springfield Union. WAGES MUST BE KEPT UP The higher cost of living, as I aim of the Republican party is to abled to meet the cost of living b 1t is a simple purpose, and as have said before, is worldwide.

Wages must be kept up, and the way to keep them up is to keep the tariff protective, and not “for 1 cannot understand how any by throwing away his vote on the revenue only.” American voter can fail to see that third party, or by voting to put the Democrats in power in the White House and in Congress, he is as sure- Iy courting disaster as is the small child playing with matches.
