A FEW REASONS FOR SUPPORTING
GOV. DAVIDSON.

His splendid record of many
years as a member of the legis-
lature.
His services to the republican
party at times when his assist
ance was very much needed.
The record he made in the
state treasurer's Office for four
years.
The fact he is a business man.
We believe a governor with such
qualifications is more necessary
at the present time than a pro
fessional man, because Of the
vast amount of business going
through the executive Office, the
construction Of the state capitol
and other buildings.
Gov. Davidson has run on the
tiChcU WIbl MI. La It Ollbbtc dUu
was 'elected lieutenant governor.
Having served less than year
as governor, unless some very
good reasons can be shown, he
is ordinarily entitled to- an en-
dorsement by an election. Mr..
La Toilette was elected governor
at the last election. He after
wards accepted the United States
senatorship and turned the Office
over TO Mr.. Davidson. Unless
Senator La Toilette had full con-
| fdence in Mr.. Davidson's honor
and integrity, he surely would
not have entrusted him with the
Office that the people had honor
ed him with. -Marshfield News.

chorus decided 10 go back to work.
Manager Conrled expressed himself
as much pleased with the outcome,

Fire at Albany Destroyed Large
Structure and Presidents Home.
ALBANY, N. Y. Jan. o.-Fire which
broke out in the north building Of the
State Normal college, on Willett street,
north Of Madison avenue, doomed the
building to destruction before the alarm
was turned in. Soon the fire had entire
ly destroyed the large structure, had
spread to the residence of President
William ]. Milne, next south, and had
spread still farther under the sweep Of
a stif northwest wind. One fireman
was seriously hurt BY falling walls.
The loss, It is believed, will reach or
exceed 800, 900, against which there ls
an insurance Of $4,000 permitted by a
special act Of the legislature. Dr. Milne
himself has about $500 insurance, but
his loss will exceed that, especially up

Remarkable Finding In New

CORONER'S UNIQUE IHEORYOF DEATE
Fatal Weapon and Poison Bottle
Found Close 20 Rear Door of Hill
Ter Mansion-Blood Stained
Trail Upstairs.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan. 9.-Sui
eide by means Of both bullet and poison
is the explanation given by Coroner Ell
Mix Of the mysterious death Of Charles
A. Edwards Of New York city at III,
Abigail Hiller homestead hero on Tues
day night last This finding is contain
ed In a preliminary report to State At
toney Williams and is based in part on
the discovery OF morphine in the body
OF Mr.. Edwards By Medical Examiner
Bartlett and the surgeons who per.
formed the autopsy. The finding Is sup
ported by some portions Of the evidence
taken at the inquest, which extended
through Eve days and which is not yet
completed.
The preliminary report Is made at
this time to relieve public suspense, and
Coroner Mix adds that Mr. Edwards
death probably was one Of the most re-
markable on record. The theory OF sui
eide, however, appears not to have been
held by the coroner until Saturday,
when two headquarters detectives un-
earthed In the shrubbery near the Hill
Ter house an old fashioned % caliber re
volyer and half pint bottle containing
a quantity Of laudanum.
The first action taken by Coroner Mix
after reaching a conclusion In the case
was TO order the release from suryell-
lance Of A. MaXcy Hitler, brother-in-
law Of Mr.. Edwards, who on Thursday
evening last was placed In charge Of a
police officer under a recently enacted
law which gives the coroner the right
to hold an important witness in a case
as he sees 1t.
The coroner's brief report does not
dlspel the mystery In the death Of Mr.
Edwards, and until the complete fnd-
ing is ready probably no public solution
can be found as to why Mr.. Edwards
