 F1angan-Hynes Case On Monday
 Last Day for New Voters. New Haven, Oct 1.-The democratic campaign was begun last evening with rally in the Hyperion theater. Sam uel A. York, candidate for probate judge of the New Haven district, acted as chairman. He introduced Melbert B. Cary, candidate for governor. MT Cary was received with generous ap- plause and spoke at some length.
 Mr Cary was followed by B. Kent hubbard of MiddletoWn, candidate for lieutenant governor. MT Hubbard tertained the mass meeting with some good anecdotes, one at the expense of himself. He used a simile from the football field, telling the principle of the game and urging that candidates and voters alike pull and push to- gether' like team for victory.
 Homer s. Cummings of Stamford, candidate for congressman at large, followed Mir Hubbard. MT Cummings drew applause frequently and was re- ceiVed with generous approval.
 Arthur B. Calkins of East Lyme. candidate for secretary of state, and Noble B. Pierce of Bristol, candidate for. attorney-general, were the last of the list of candidates to speak. George B. Wallace of New Haven was invited to address the meeting briefly in con clusion.
 An acr1on in law between James A. Hynes and John F. Flanagan, over the result of the recent town election, in which both claim to have been elected registrar of voters of the dem- ocratic party, was begun this after noon by Attorney Root, senior colln- sel for Flanagan. The action is simply petition to Judge Shumway of Bridgeport, 3 judge of the superior court, asking him to grant MT Flana- gan hearing and to decide that there shall be a recount of the votes cast for the candidates for registrar. The petition begins with a review of the vote cast in the respective five voting districts and the action of the moder- ator in each of them Paragraph 8 says John Blair was elected registrar of the republican party; the following paragraph says that MT Hynes was not elected a registrar of the demo- cratic party, etc, but he was declared elected. The next one says MT Elan agan was elected, etc, but was not de- clared elected, and then the petition concludes thus in effect: that your petitioner asks recount of the bal lots; that he be declared elected; and ii the court determine this petition in his favor, that you issue a certificate to that effect under seal of the court, entitling him to hold and exercise the duties of the said office. The matter may be heard at the next term of the superior court, which opens here in a week or two. =.
 The democratic senatorial conven- ton will be held in K. of C. hall Mon day morning at II o'clock. It is said that the Honorable William Kennedy or Naugatuck will be nominated to succeed himself. N
 For a brief period everybody is in vited to call at the republican head quarters in the new block at the cor ner of LeavenWorth and Center streets. Although one might not think they had the heart. to do it the repub- l1cans are working tooth and nail and while they are not making any con- yerts this is no fault of theirs. The democrats are doing things on the old plan, not turning a hand and appar- ently indifferent as to what way the scrap will end. Probably this appar- ent indifference on the part of the democrats is due to their notion that 1t ought not be necessary to tell any one how to vote this year.
 Applications to be made voters should be in the hands of the regis trars on or before o'clock next Mo1l- day afternoon. EligibIes who fail to comply with this order will have to stand Tn the shade for two years more. Drop in and see the registrars tonight. You may not have time Monday. The democrats are pushing the registration business this year while the republi- cans are fighting shy of it. The latter suspect that every new elector means vote against themselves so that it is only natural that they should not care to put weapons in the hands of men to be used against themselves. The people should be on the alert and get in every man who will mature be- fore election day. If they are ad- mitted to the franchise it is but fair to assume that they will know how to use it to the best advantage so that 1t behooves all except republican poli- tlc1ans to help in the matter of regis tratiOn
