Convention Long and Interesting. The convention was a long one and of intense interest throughout. The atmosphere was of mi er sultri- ness, and for hours many delegates sat in their shirt sleeves. At times the situations were dramatic and often practically every delegate sat firm in his seat, scarcely making a sound, waiting for what would happen next. Throughout the roll call on the sena- torship a few delegates left the bau and scores of them checked the pref- erences as names were responded to. In few conventions of the party were so many ready to make nominating or seconding speeches,"and only occasion- ally in the late afternoon did the au- dience show a disposition to urge the speakers to be brief. Little Bitterness in Dobate. There was vex?' tlémat bittarnus shown in the heat of debate, and only Chairman Ken- play for the man on the Hoor. and again references to President Wil- son and Governor Baldwin brought the convention to its feet to cheer, and each candidate as nominated was given an ovation. Most of those nominated were escorted to the speaker's desk, where they expressed their apprecia- tion of the honor briefly but with en- ergy, and with roseate predictions of the future of the ticket. his speech of acceptance Gover- Baldwin said: Speech 'of Acceptance, ‘In the eloquent address of the Bel- glan commissioners made on Wednes- day to the president, they said that ‘the American people has always dis- played its respect for justice, its search for progress and an imstinctive attachment for the laws:of humanity.’ That they have always displayed these characteristics~—respect for justice as against privilege, the search for pro- gress as against stagnation or retro- gression and an instinctive attach- ment for the laws of humanity found- ed on a recognition of the inalienable rights of man is due to the doctrine written down by Thomas Jefferson, first in the Declaration of Indepen- dence and then, 25 years later, in the platform of the democratic party. “The best guarantee that this char- acter of the American people will be steadfastly maintaineq lies in the re- taining of a democratic congress to e8, | uphold the hdnds of President Wil- n. # “I feel very deeply the confidenc ich the democratic party of Con iecticut has shown in me durirg th rast four years.

They are makers of treatles. They may be turned into a court of justice. “In our complex system of govern- ment which divides sovereignty be- tween the states and the United States the senate is the stronghold of the state. It is particularly the stronghold of the sma'ler states. “We in Connecticut belong to a lit- tle group of s‘ates closely connected by ties of historic association, by mu- ‘val interests, by mutual aspirations.

You AreInvited—Everyone is Invited To Attend This Formal Opening in the Millinery Dep't. time the vote was taken there had been no certain indication that Governor Baldwin would have the magnificent support accorded him, and they were disappointed because, in many cases, they had convinced themselves that Congressman Mahan had better than an even chance of winning, at least by 2 small margin. As indicated by the Getail vote, however, not all of the eastern Connecticut delegations were suffering from chagrin, and the fact that so many of the New London coun- ty delegates flocked to the Baldwin standard was something of a revela- tion to delegations from other parts of eastern Connecticut as well as from counties that did not pretend to as- eume they knew so much about what was_going to happen. Congressman Reilly’s Plea Hurt Mahan There were several incidents leading up to the nomination that many dele- gates afterwards said convinced them operated against the strength of the|of the two candidates. This phase of Mahan cause. A principal one was|the situation was coneiderably dis- Congressman Thomas Rellly’s speech in presenting the name of Governor Baldwin to the convention. It was ad- mittedly an unusually strong plea, it made a big hit with the convention, and, many of Congressman Mahan's friends claim, swung mamy uncertain delegates into the ranks of the Bald- win faction, for there wero délegates in the convéntion, and not a few of them, that had not fully declded which way they would vote on the senator- ship question right up to the last mo- ment. v Roll Call Votp Helped Baldwin.

The re- mark was heard more once that there were men in the conveation who voted for Baldwin under the perfectly proper method used that would have slipped a ballot for Congressman Ma- han into the box if that .plan of vot. ing had been emploved. for then they would not have been obliged to reveal & support that might prove disastrous to them in quarters where they owe debts of political gratitude.

No claim was heard that Congress- an Mahan would have won out if the incidents herein enumerated had not come about, the feeling being that he would have made a very close contest of it, as was being predicted by the great majority of the political sharps in the convention right up to the time that the routine of selecting a rominee was taken up by the convention.
