 The laws of Connecticut in relation to employers liability and the assess ment of damages by the court in dam age cases have existed practically un- change since the formation of the col- ony of Connecticut, and no democratic administration has taken action when in power to change these laws. The re- publican party is the party of progress, and we recommend that the general as- sembly give these questions a full, fair and impartial hearing, and if it is found that wrong or injustice Is done under the existing laws that such laws be changed so that justice shall be done to all citizens whatever their pursuits or avocations. We recognize and honor the heroic services and great sacrifices of the vol- unteer soldiers of our state in the de- fense of our country and for the honor of the flag, both at home and abroad, and pledge to them anew both the sym pathy and aid due to gallant soldiers. We present to the citizens of the state the Hon. Rollin s. Woodruff as our candidate for governor, and commend him and his colleagues on the state ticket and our candidste for congress- man-at-large, George L. Lilley to the electors of this commonwealth for their suffrages. Convention Opens. Congressman Lilley was five minutes late in calling the convention to order.
