Practical politicians are no less impressed than those who regard the careless attitude of a vot- er towards the possession of rights of citizenship as bordering upon treason to_the state. Former Senator Thomas J. Spellacy has stated that he would prepare a bill for introduction in the general assembly, which would forfeit the right of suffrage to those. who ueglect it to the extent of not voting in 2 state or national election, unless possessing one of several valid excuses which would be specified. From the view- point of campaign management, the senatoy sald, it was ridiculous that the parties should expend thousands of dollars in maintaining party ma- chinery, and so large a percentage of the voters show their complete indif- ference by refusing to vote. The senator satd he would spend some time in investigating the laws of various states in regard to the penalties for failure to vote, but he doubted that any state provided for the loss of citizenship. When over Ekroesi £ Buliard Purlonnla. 20 per cent of the registered voters vloLIN George Shaw was a recent visitor in | of the state neglect to cast their bal- Baltic. lots despite the easy methods of transportation provided in the large centers by the party committees at party expense, he considered it high time that there should be legislative action. The official canvass of -~ the vote for. United States senator shows a total of 180,814 cast at the recent elec- tion. The vote for governor is not yet canvassed, but two years ago the total vote for governor was 184,581 a difference of 13,767. The total regis- tered vote two years ago was 227,171 To place it at the lowest possible cal- culation, 230,000 on November 3, the neglect of 50,000 citizens of the state of Connecticut to exercise their fran- chise is at once apparent. Should Senator Spellacy introduce a bill at the approaching session there is no doubt that the best minds of the statet would take up the study of what is growing to be a menace, the neglect of the ballot. In recent years there has been talk of allowing a vote by registered mail, but the de- velopment of the ballot accommoda- tions has not progressed that far yet.

These figures are received from the different institutions and departments of the state government. They are compiled and printed - in pamphlet form by the officials in the office of the state treasurer for the information and guidance of the general assembly. The figures are an indication of the extent of the demands “on the legislature |for appropriations at the coming session. They call for more than $30,000,000, The meaning of this statement will be better under- stood when it is said that if the de- mands were acceded to the expenses of the state for the next (wo_years would be $15,000,000 a year. Exclu- sive of bonds sold this is about dou- ble the amount of the expenses of the state for the last fiscal year. The demands made this year ex- ceed those of any other session of the general assembly. Nor do they rep- resent all the demands for appropria- tions with which-the legislators of the session of 1915 will be confronted. In addition there will be a large number of bills for projects which will create expenses. No mention will be made of the amount required to carry out the purposes of the bills in the draft which will be introduced into the gen- eral assembl; 1t is guite possible that when these are taken inot account the total of the demands will not be less than $35,000,000 for the two ensuing final years. Of course. it is not expected that the committee on appropriations will take favorable action on these demands, nor that it will be unmindful of the fact that while the right to make demands on the state treasury is unrestricted, the power to refuse is unlimited. The stationery of the committee should contain a large supply of blank forms for unfavorable reports. There are a number of expensive projects involving hundreds of thou- sands of dollars. - There is .the plan for a reformatory for females which will cost a large sum, but it is not likely to recelve favorable considera- tion. The scheme to establish a farm for ‘inebriates will be resurrected, but it is not probable that it will be put into effect with the state expenses Tunning over $2,000,000 above the re- ceipts every year. TOM COD FISHERMEN BLOCKING UP THE RIVER Tugboat Captains Say They Are in the Way in the Channel Tomcod fishing in Thames river above Scotch Cap is getting to be so popular that very soon it may be-nec- essary to suspend navigation, some of the boatmen say. One tug boat euptdn who went up the river with & tow, had to whistle four small boats out of the channel and the way the boats remain at anchor until tugs are nearly up to them is vexing to the tow boat men. One tomcod fisherman last week was the cause of two vessels ground- ing in the river and there was con- siderable expense in getting them off. It was Wednesday wheén tug Alert was trying te tow schooner Sylvia C. Hall to Fort Point to discharge a lumber cargo. A fisherman had anchored in mid- channel and the Alert whistled for him to move. He would not move. The tug steered clear of the sharpie In which thé man was fishing but the Hall struck the mud bank, On Thursday, when steamer Chelsea Was making her way to Norwich, she tried to turn out around the Hall and Wwas herself caught in the mud. The things that skippers and pilots said about that obstinate fisherman could not be chronicled on an ordinary typewriter. The tugs got schooner and steamer off on the following high tides but there was a good deal of extra york occasione: IN COMMON PLEAS e—— Suit Over the Sum of $26 In New London Court of common pleas came in at New London Monday morning to try the case of S.
