The Holstein cow wn as De Kohl Hubbard Piertiege, .ned by the Con- necticut Agricultyral college, died on Monday. The cow was eight years old last Aprfl, and had displayed an un- usual amount of vigor throughout its life, until two weeks ago, when it gave birth to a calf.

A special committee of the Comnec- ticnt Men's league has addressed communications to the senatorial candidates inquiring their views as ‘o equal suffrage. Responses have come from John H. Barnes, republican, and H. R. Branche, progressive, candidates from the nineteenth senatorial dis- trict. My. Barnes writes: “I spoke In Greeneville some weeks ago Andrew’s church (Episcopal) in favor of woman suffrage. As a member of the senate in 1899 the records of that body show that I then voted In favor of the =2:4 matter. I am still in faver of woman suffrage. Very truly yours, John. H. Barnes. H. R. Branche writes: “Most em- phatically, Yes! H. R. Branche” Benjamin H. Hewitt, republican candidate of the 20th senatorial dis- trict, says: “I am not oppused to their voting if they want the privilege. My opponent was a member of the last house and you cerainly know that he did nothing for the cause. I-am open to conviction on the matter. Sin- cerely, H. B. Hewitt."” S Vote for Brandegee Is, Logical... Just why any moderatdly indepen- dent voter should prefer Baldwin. to ns, that - 0 a Baldwin man would ‘be con- siderably ‘humorous. If the choice lies, as it does, between the man from New London and the man from New Haven no elector should hesitate but should vote for the former, The dem- ocrats may say that Baldwin's vote is needed to support President Wil- son's policies, which is doubtless true, but is thers any especial reason for supporting those policies? 1Zas. the cost of living been go cheap und work so plentiful of late that the palicies are things to be supported Governor Baldwin is as much of & free theorist as President Wilson while he possess- “dav‘n ‘klle- interest {n vgfkl;l:men and working women than the former Princeton _professor. — Shore Line Times. + NORWICH TOWN' Old Time Husking—S8ale of Stapleton Place—Red -Raspberriss Picked This Week.
