AYLING, Norwich Representatives ALBERT J. BAILEY, JOSEPH H. HENDERSON UNITED STATES SENATOR. The importance of this office can- not be overlooked. It is highly neces- sary that it should be filled by a man of experience and by a man whose rec- ord and declered policy of protection is In harmony with the demands of the -state. Frank B. Brandegee has served two terms in the upper house of congress. He is one of the leading senators in Washington. He is a sen- ator of influence and strength, whose services cannot be dispensed with if the industrial interests of Connecticut are to be properly safeguarded. It is no time for an experiment, and de- spite the personal qualifications of his opponent, it is a time when particular regard must be paid to policies which they represent. The return of Frank B. Brandegee to Washington means not only strong and efficient represen- tieion, but the support of and effective work for principles which mean- the return of republican prosperity. It would be a gross mistake for Con- necticut at this time to contribute further by the election of Simeon E. Baldwin to democratic mistakes and failure. Tt is likewise important that this part of the state should see that Connecticut has a senator who is familiar with the interests and needs of this end of the commonwealth, New CONGRESSMAN. Two years ago in the face of warn- ing the Second congressional district sent to Washington a democrat. It wag a gift due to the prevailing cén- ditions. As the result of that plural- ity of 515 in a strong republican dis- trict this end of Connecticut has shared the hardships of democratic misrule. In spite of the knowledge of what the people of this district stood for then, and which by the way they still ,stand for in increased numbers, our representative has bowed to the 'will of the democratic administration. The Second district is closing its second vear of misrepresentation. Its expe- rience has been effective, More strongly than ever is it realized that the return of former business activity depends upon the true and tried prin- ciples of the republican party. The mistake of two years ago is widely recognized. The time is ripe for making amends through the can- didacy of Richard P, Freeman. He is pledged to principles which are in accord with the district demands. Not only does he recognize the needs, but ‘he will work for them, and not against them. He possesses not only the abil- lity but the inclination to represent all sectlong of the district in aeccordance with the requirements. He deserves.a. handsome majority. STATE OFFICERS. With Marcus A. Holcomb, at present judge on the superior court bench as the candidate for governor, the re- publicans have named a man of the highest qualifications and to wWwhose support the voters of the state will rally. He assures Connecticut the chief executive that it deserves and, ts votes today, should demand. State affalrs are in a condition which demands greater study and at- tention. As governor Judge Helcomb can be relied upon to 16ok well after its Interests. His extensive career in public office especially fits him for the exacting dutles of governmor. It was for that reason that he was nominated and for that reason he should he elect- ed. Connecticut needs just such = man et the helm, and today is the day to secure his services. ‘With him upon the state ticket have heen named men of fitness and ability, Compared man for man with their op. ponents they are entitled to election by a large majority and the voters shonld see that they get it. A vote for Holcomb and the rest of the re. publican ticket means better conduct of state affalrs, “IN STATE LEGISLATURE.

His en- dorsement should be so large and en- thusiastic as to make it evident that the voters do not consider that the office is one which should be made a political footbali. COUNTY SHERIFF. The excellent administration of the shrievalty by Sidney A. Brown makes it evident to the voters of the county that their interests lie in his reten- tion in office. He gives to the office the business ability which it needs. He devotes to his public duties the at- tention which would de given to pri- vate business. His qualifications and economical conduct of office demand his reelection. The experience which he has had in the office cannot be overlooked in the consideration of his candidacy. As in the past he is the man for the place, 8 VOTERS SHOULD VOTE. The task which ez before the voters today is to go to the polls and vote. It is to be presumed that opinions have been formed -as to the questions involved, the principles at stake and the fitness of the men who have been named to uphold them, but there is no reason to believe that these are mat- ters which can with safety be left to a few. It must be apparent to the most cas- ual observer that good government and the putting into force of the principles which mean the most for the welfare of individual and country rest with the voter. If opinions are held anad not expressed on election day no ad- vantage is gained. It is simply a con- tribution to indifference and negl gence and such are always the fore- runners of unsatisfactory conditions. That such a condition should exist to the extent that it does in enlightened communities is one of the great sur- prises of the age. Personal and community interests and welfare and the improvement of conditions which are governed by ac- tion on election day impose as serious and vital a duty upon each individual as if he was looking after his rights and investments in a private corpora- tion. It is a part of the requirements of good citizenship. The discrepaney which exists be- twcen the number of votes cast and the number which might be deposited is to a large extent due to lack of proper interest. Today is the time for the stay at home to get out and do his part in strengthening our po- litical institutions, If there ever was a time to get out a big vote it is here. EDITORIAL NOTES. Seymour needs a liveral display of safety first signs for auto drivers. The disturbance which Horace John- son discerns is unquestionably a re- publican landslide. The effort to blame it onto the Ger- man officials looks as if Turkey had lost control, Pull the republican lever or put a cross in the circle at the head of the republican column and there will be no regrets, The republicans opposed the ‘“New Freedom” in 1912 and they do £0 now with full substantiation of their pre- vious stand. The man on the corner says: Flec- tion day furnishes a chance to elect directors for which it is impossible to send proxies. 1t is tough that the heart should be blamed for the death of a woman for whom it had been persistently working 106 years. This is the day to overcome the stay at home habit. Go to the polls and vote for the best interests of your town, state and country. The indications are that the demo- crats have been driven beyond the river of @doubt and their retreat is being turned into a rout, Now that the Reockefeller Founda- tion is going to the relief of the non- combatant Belgians everyone can feel that he is lending a hand. The expressions which accompany the conversion of the beautiful shade into bothersome leaves, show how quickly admiration can be changed to disgust. S e The practice of wearing breast- plates has been revived in the French and Russian armies. Further evidence that thé war is pushing the world ‘backward. The democrats promised a reduction in the cest of living and prosperity. The country has received just the op- posite. Is that cause for endorsing it directly or indirectly? There is slight reason to expect democratic endorsement after a com- parison of republican prosperity and accomplishment with the hopeless fail- :!re of democratic promises end poli- es. ———e. ‘Blocking a canal Is bad enough, but it is preferable that the should be stopped by the sliding earth at Culebra than that it should be like the Yser canal in Burope choked with ‘human dead. e e e _The New Jersey slogan: “Do it for Wilson” is what 1s embarrassing the democratic congressmen.

Inside of half an hour they had persuaded Mrs. Briggs, at whose table they took their meals, to do her share. ‘When Uncle Jack arrived he showed every sign of being highly pleased with his nephew's wife and their home. He continually congratulated the -voung pair on their good sense in starting out so early to make a real home instead of this “infernal board- ing,” as he called it, and at every meal nearly he praised Mrs. Appleby for her good housekeeping. And things run with astonishing smoothness. “Now don't blush, little gzirl” he saild when the young woman was one day quite overcome by his warm ap- preclation of the cooking. “John is a mighty lucky chap to have such a capable helpmeet as you.” Another time she was almost re-: duced to tears when, handing her his| note book, he asked her to jot down | the rule for the delicious pudding they | had had that night, so that he could | have his housekeeper make it. “Oh, Uncleé Jack, Tll have to look .o the book and see,” she sald. “T'll copy it for you to-morrow. “Very well, my dear. anxious to carry home culinary secrets.” At this Appleby laughed so unroar- iously that his wife wes obliged to retreat from the room in disorder, and ‘when John hastily joined her she ex- You see, T'm | some of your claimed between laughter and tears. ‘T'm not going to carrv on this de- ception any longer.

Mr. Bditor: In the issue of the Bul- letin of Saturday, October 31st, a let- ter appears entitled Abuses of the Franking Privilége, signed by “Citi- zen” accusing the present representa- tive from the Second congressional district of gross abuse of the frank- ing privilege. May I suggest to Citizen that the words to which he refers, “I am a can- didate for re-election” does not con- stitute an infraction of the law sov- erning use of envelopes marked If in the letter to whith Citizen re- fers, the voter were asked to vote for the present representative, then it would be unlawful, but any member of congress has a perfect right to sub- mit for the approval of the voters in his district his record while in con- gress under his “fran Mr. Citizen will kindly note that Mr. Mahan in his letter does not so- votes; he simply places before the people in his district, his record while Washington, D. C. Mr. Jodoin’s Reply. Mr. Editor: In your issue of Sat- urday you print a statement signed “An Independent Voter,” which pur- ports to be an explanation of how the affairs of the town of Sprague were conducted during my term of office as first selectman. Contrary to all rules of fairness, Independent Voter does not sign his name to a lidelous statement. It is perhaps unnecessary for me to call your attention to the fact that the statement signed Independent Voter is a violation of statute law. In the many years that I have been and then to keep their stomach, liver and bowels regulated, and never know a reader of your paper I have mnever entertained a doubt that you were willing to treat all readérs with fair- ness and courtesy. That belief impels me, at this time, to ask you to print this brief reply to the libelous state- ment signed “Independent Voter. When I assumed the duties of the office of first selectman of the town ot Sprague the town was bonded for $43,000, at a rate of 6 per cent. inter- est, for g term of 30 years. That bond, with its exorbitant rate of interest, was placed during a republican ad- ministration. Tn 1902, still under a republican ad- minlstration. the town of Sprague was obliged to fight an epidemic of small- pox, and an. extra dedt of $18,000 was saddled upon the town, for which was not_responsible. Out of my own pocket I materially assisted -several stricken families, In 1911 the town of Sprague was under a republican administration, and during that vear a town hall was erected at a cost in excess of $10,000. ‘When I assumed the duties of first selectman the’ debt of the town, an inheritance left by a republican’ ad- ministration, was estimated in excess of_$73,000. During the years I was first select- man of the town of Sprague we con- structed two steel bridges at a cost of $18,000 and that-work was author- ized by a majority vote of the town. We also constructed four miles of macadam road, admitted to be one of the best roads in the state and the share of the town for that work was about $6,000, an expenditure also au- thorized by vote of the citizens of Sprague. At this late day L am not going to recount the many items of expense I saved the town of Sprague. A ma- jority of the voters know I reduced expenses at the almshouse and in va- rious departments: that I obtained pensions from the government for two poor women, who were dependent upon the town for support, but are now in a position to care for themselves in comfort; that I have always labored for the interests of my fellow citizens and that those citizens have demon- strated their trust and confidence in me by electing me first selectman for 14 vears, and I am still a member of the board. The reasons for the drifting awoy of a few voters from the support of the democratic ticket in the recent town election in Sprague are known to the residents of that town. and also to many persons in New London coun- ty. It is well known in Sprague that about one week before the town elec- tion, at which I was a candidate for selectman, and after T had been nom- inated as democratic candidate for sheriff, a republican _deputy named by Sheriff Sidney A. Brown, raided an alleged poker joint and arrested sev- eral young men. The existence of that joint was known to the deputy for many monthe, but no action was (VELY SINGING and ICING GIRLS 3 RSON ; n a Novel Character Change Oddity in a Dressing Room’ R Violinist L WA EEKLY- No. 15 Y l.- Two Parts & Chaplin Matinee 2:30, 5c and 10c; Eve. 7 and 8:45, 10c, 16 and 20c 8 gt.
