ing to make the campaign this fall
the most vigorous since the party
was organized. Tons of literature

be already on the verge of enacting
prohibition legislation.

 At the Pilgrim church Sunday the following resolution of sympathy was adopted: "The members of the Pilgrim Congregational church of Canaan wish to extend to the pastors and members of St Joseph's church their profound sym pathy in the loss of their well-beloved and highly honored Bishop, Micheal Tierney. Held in high esteem for his indefatigable labors in the interest of temperance and Christian citizenship, and in his many humanitarian and ed- ucational enterprises, and beloved by those who knew him for his kindly and sincere Christian spirit, we feel that his death is a distinct loss to the moral and religious forces of the state and of tho Kingdom of Heaven"

REMARKABLE COMPLIMENT

Hon. Charles ". Barnum, of Lime Rock, is justly proud of the decided and unprecedented compliment paid him by the delegates to the thirty-first district democratic senatorial convention at Ca naan Saturday. ..
 Mir. Barnum was unanimously nomi- mated for senator by the republicans on the preceding Saturday and the dele gates to the democratic convention un- animeusly endorsed his candidacy.
 As we say above, such endorsement of a candidate for so important an office as state senator is unprecedented, at least in the recent political history of this state.
 THE NEWS believes the democrats took the proper course. We are of the opinion that there is not a democrat in this sena- torial district who could defeat MT. Barnum for this office. And we say this without the slightest intention of casting reflections on any of the followers Barnam to be remarkably popular man with people of every political faith. More than that, he has been tried ill the state senate and not found wanting. He served on important committees and hls work in the legislature was of the model sort He applied intelligence and busi- ness methods to every task and the man. ner in which he handled intricate prob lems was so thorough, so accurate and so painstaking that his work soon at tracted the attention of his fellow legis- lators.
 And senator Barnum accepts these nominations not because he aspired to them but because the people call. To serve as state senator will mean per sonal sacrifice on his part, both of time and money, for he is busy man con- nected with busy big manufacturing concern where the financial returns are beyond comparison with the state sena- torial stipend.
 THE NEWS commends both the demo- cratic and republican parties for nomina- [ ting MT. Barnum and it congratulates [ him on this remarkable unanimity of ! opinion displayed on the part of both the '. old parties in the thirty-first as to his | qualification for the office.

"With a trail of injured and dying men and hopelessly wrecked racing machines behind them, six of the 12 au- tomobiles which started in the 24-hour race at the Brighton Beach race track last evening, were still in the mad while at s o'clock to-day" This extract from a New York paper explains itself. In an effort to establish speed record for 24 hours dozen or two speed maniacs took their lives in their hands, cast aside all thoughts of the safety of themselves or of others and ran automobiles at a speed heretofore unheard of. Unfortun- ately the maimed were not confined to the participants in the race. Aman who will deliberately place his life in such jeopardy is entitled to no sympathy if he is obliged to pay the penalty. Racing events of this sort demonstrate the fact the lunatic asylums are not nearly as well filled as they should be.

The New Haven Palladium believes that the result of the license vote, par ticularly when no-license' was voted will work to the detriment of the re- publican party at the polls next month It is claimed that the democrats are holding the republicans responsible for the increase in the temperance vote. We hardly believe the Palladium has the situation sized correctly. So far as we have been able to learn, party lines were not drawn in the license fight and both democrats and republicans were found on each side. The matter seemed entirely eliminated from politics and 70 fully occupied the attention of the voters that much less than the usual rivalry was manifest in the contest for town offices.
