With the high cost of material and la- bor he sald that $25,000 is hardly suffi- ‘clent now for the general repairs and maintenance of the highways. It will require $10,000 to make permanent re- pairs to Canal street, when the sewer work has been completed to {iE curb, and $15,000' to complete Atlantic avenue and\Crandall latie at Pleasant View.

Senator Brown, who s opposed to | Barnes, is a member of the judiclary { committee, and while his assocfates hold him in_ high. esteem and ‘appreciate his true ability and fearlessness, the major- ity of them are not in sympathy with his reform measures; not that they doubt the sincerity of the senator, but they are not in favor of reform of measures that, in their opinion, have been in operation and evidently to the satisfaction of the great majority of the people of the state. Thebe reform measures, proposed by the senator, will not be liable to give strength to the opposition of the appoints ment of Judge Lames to the Norwich police court. Former Senator Albert Balley, Wwhe was defeated for nomiriation by a largs majority, has not been making trips 1+ the capitol for the sole purpose of aiding in the reappointment of Judge Barnes. Mr. Bailey is a candidate for appointment as workmen's compensation commission- er to succeed Dr. John J. Donohue, who has been in officc since the ereation of the commission. Mr. Bailef is & member of the republican state central committee and some of his wires are connected With some very influential members of that committee, and these wires lead to the appolnting power. Mr. ley's _main claim, 50 it is said, is thatihe is a repub- lican and a lawyer, while Dr. Donohue is lacking in these two essentials. True, {Dr. Donohue was first appointed ms a democrat, and while he is no lawyer his decisions have stood the tests of the courts, and he has admisistered the law that governs the office impartially and correctly.
