In assigning a cause for hi- and the downfall of the remainder of the democratic ticket, Goveisu. win says that it was due to the return ©of the progressives to the republican party. That this was one of the causes of the turnover is unquestionably a fact. There can be no doubt of it for 3vhen there is a drop from 35,000 votes for the progressive candidates two $ears ago to less than 10,000, it is guite evident that a large part of that difference went to the republican party, whence it came. : This support of republican candi- dates was by no means confined to Connecticut. It was to be found wher- ever elections were held, all New Eng- land, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio and other states disclosing the , deterioration of the progressives even fo the point where they lose thelr gtanding as a party. . While indications had foreshadowed 2 large return of the progressive party members to the republican fold, there can be no question but what the ob- Ject lesson of the democratic admin- istration and what might be expected from an endorsement thereof, had & powerful influence upon the minds of all party voters. It was reflected in the large vote which was cast which i8 a pretty good indication that the sbundness of republican principles car- rled much weight in the opinions of the electors. It was the logical action efter a comparison of past and present nditions and it means that the most 'ective results are to be obtained ffom within the party. £° VALUE OF MACHINES. ;Once again has the voting machin d¢monstrated its efficiency and d - ability, The accuracy, the speed which it permits in ascertaining the resuits of the day’s voting, the assurance which is given the voter that his vote has been counted as cast and the overcoming of the long tedious hours of counting under the old paper bal- lot system are all welcomed in large communities. The mechanical method of obtaining and adding the vote of the electors is so far in advance of the Australian ballot that it is futile to_attempt comparisons. Perhaps no better evidence of the dilatory operations of the Australian ballot is needed than the delay in the announcement of the vote in the city of Willimantic until 3.15 a. m., al- most daylight of the day following election, while in Norwich and even such cities as Bridgeport, New Haven, Waterbury and New Britain it was known within two hours how the elec- tion had gone. FElectlon results are what the people are anxious about and they are entitled to know as early as possible and Norwich finds occasion to songratulate itself on every election flay that it saw fit some time ago to rdopt the voting machines, It is the ideal method of voting and sven though not absolutely perfect it s 20 far ahead of the other method that its shortcomings become insigni- ficant. It is e noteworthy fact that no voter lost his right of franchise on the machines whereas every town which used the ballots had many to throw out as {llegal. MARKETING FOODSTUFFS, What a demand is being made upon ‘e foodstuffs of this country by the war is disclosed by the large expor- lation this year in comparison with pst. September figures of foodstuffs tent abroad show that it is fortunate ndeed that this country had the means whereby it could respond and that jature so favored it as to furnish a Brge supply in certain lines at Jeast. During that month there were ex- jofted foodstuffs to the value of $68.- 194,000, a large gain in view of the ‘act that in the same month last year e value was but $38,786,624. We have wvheat this year wherewith to meet e demand, which was not the case a rear ago. In the third quarter of the rear there has been exported 89,250,- 00 bushels of wheat where for the mme period last year the exportation vas but 50,000,000 bushels. In other staple goods there is also in increased movement. out of the ountry. FEleven times as much fresh Jeef was sent out of the country in quarters and not in others. To Villa it is satisfactory, but the selection was made.in the face of the protest submitted by Carranza. Coming from the lower middle ¢lass Gutierrez was a merchant until the recent revolution, but in acknowledg- ment of his assistance to the consti- tutionalist cause he was made gov- ernor of the state of San Luis Potosi by Carranza. His lack of fitness for the important position is generally recognized. He is not an educated man and under ordinary circumstances would have little or no claim wupon the office, : The deliberation of the peace del- egates should have brought forth the best available man in Mexico. It is dificult to think that the selection warrants such e conclusion, however, for his record makes it evident that something besides the best interests directed the action. It is perhaps well that his election is for but twenty days. Therein may be manifested enough of his qualifications or dis- qualifications to guide the action when the time comes for the selection of the provisional president, who is to serve until a permanent president can be chosen at an election. A EDITORIAL NOTES. It has been found that Culebra is not the only place where landslides can be expected, It is quite evident that the voters haven’t forgotten how to decide by the ballot . The chances are that Sulzer 1s en- joying the outcome of the election much more than the Colonel. The unity of the protectionists is one of the manifestations of the elec- tion results. It always means a sure win. The republican forces have shown the Germans something new in slege guns for battering down the finest po- litical fortifications. Inasmuch as the Germans have abandoned their coast campaign in Belgium, Crnada can rest contented for a while longer. Russia has proved in this war that she can come back after her defeat by Japan. It remains to see what Tur- key can deménstrate. ‘The democratic administration was bad enough, biut when it came to pay- ing taxes on it the burden was too much for the people. The man on the corner says: The reason some people call 1ife a vale of tears is that they cannot ses the sun- shine following election. The claim is made that the gangrene microbe has been discovered. The world would appreciate ths determin- ation and crushing of the microbe of war. The condition of some of the West Side walks has been materially bet- tered. It is certainly a well placed and inspiring -example for other property owners, It is natural that the sick man of Europe should worry over another im- pending amputation. He is liable to succumb under one of these frequent operations. It would be interesting to ses what a real patriotic public spirited citizen of Mexico would be willing to saeri- fice for the good of his country, aside from being president.

Mr. Editor: Kindly allow me to state for the benefit of the licensed hunters and pubdlic of Norwich and viginity that I have been in m0 way connected with the department of fish- eries and game since September 9th, 1914, upon which date I resigned as a special protector of fish and game. I have served as a deputy flsh# game commissioner (state game - den) in Massachusetts and have rec- ommendations showing that I enforced the game laws without fear or favor while I held the above offics. I have passed the Connecticut civil service examination for the position of state game warden and my name is at pres- ent on the certified list of eligibles for that position. As I am being unjustly criticised for not enforcing the game laws, I take this means of informing the li- censed hunters and pubdlic that I am in no manner responsible for the e: Vermellie—A village of northern France, five miles southwest of Be- thune and 13 miles north of Arras, on a small hill overlooking 2 branch of the canal running from La Bassees to Afre.

Was It an Appeal for Votes? Mr. Editor: Wednesday’s Bulletin, referring to the democratic rally at Middletown, Monday evening, evident- Iy quoting from some other newspaper, says of Congressman Bryan F. Mahan: “He explained fully the letter sent out by him under the frank of congress and denied absolutely that it was an appeal for votes.” Now, if Mr. Mahan is correctly quoted, it is well to examine the letter itself. It begins: “My Dear Sir: I am a candidate for reelection as repre- sentative in congress from the Second congressional district of Comnecticut, and wish to submit for your approval my record in congress, as well as my record in the Connecticut legislature, in the house and senate.” Then fol- lows his statement of what he has done in congress and in the state leg- islature. It concludes as follows: “Hoping that my record in congress will meet with your approval, I re- main,” etc, followed by Mr. Mahan's name, The printed letter was mailed to voters in this district a few days be- fore the election. If the statement that he was a candidate for reelection to congress with the hope that his record would be approved, mailed to voters just at this time, was not an appeal for votes, it would be hard to state what its purpose and import was. How were these voters to indicate on a small afiuent of the Lys. The raising of cattle and the sale of the agricultural products of the neighbor- ing country are the principal activities. The population is about 500. Pilica—A small town of Russian- Poland, 30 miles northwest of Cracow and 33 miles southeast of Czestochowa, on a river of the same name. The town has carried on a good trade inf grain with Prussian Silesia and with Austria- It has large tanmeries and textile works. The population is be- tween 4,00 5,00. The Pilica’ River rises in_the southwestern corner of Rusian Poland, flows north for about 80 miles and north of east for about 60 miles, falling into the Vistula 28 miles above Warsaw. Revigny— A town ot northeastern France, eight miles west of northwest of Bar le Duc and about 1? miles south of the Forest of Argonne on the Ornain Rriver. Its population is about 2,000. Much exploration for phosphate fossils has been carried on in the neighborhood. The making of watches is the principal industry. A beauti- ful church of the 15th gentury is still standing. Revigny suffered severely ‘when olt was attacked by the Swedes in 1640. Nowemiasto—A town in Russian Po- land, two miles from the Galician bord- er and 37 miles south of Kielce, near the confluence of the Nida with the Vistula. The town was probably founded in the 13th century, and for a long time was the meeting place of the Polish diet The princes of Po- land made their residences there before For at least thirty years Peruna has had a great reputation It is especially valuable in cases where grip has passed.
