Congressman Hill and Charles y, Brooher in Field Against Senator from New
 London.
SENATOR IS CONFIDENT z
Declares That He Will Be Returned to Washngton--Wha the Hart- ford Times Says of the
 Situation.

Hartford Nov, o,--In referring to the announcement made to-day that Congressman Hill of Norwalk, har- bors the ambition to succeed Frank B. Brandegee as senator, the Times this evening says;
 The announcement that Repre- sentative Hill of Norwalk wants to succeed Mir. Brandegee as United States senator is hardly more import ant than the intimation that Mir. Brooker of Ansonia is likely to be in the field. It Is not to be supposed that this was made by the Hartford Cour- ant this morning without Knowledge of the situation, let alone the fact that during the recent campaign there was talk of Mir. Brooker and MT. Mo- Lean becoming the successors of tho present senators.
 With Mir. Brandegee seeking a re- election, Mir. Hill declared candidate and Mir. Brookers name introduced in the way 1t has been there is pros- pect of at least three active candi- dates. Each of them has a consider able following and the contest may become very interesting.
 Senator Brandegee is In now. which Is usually considerable ad- vantage.
 MT. Hill has first rate reputation for industry and capacity He has made himself an important figure in the house during the last seven congresses, and has gained. in reputa- ton and influence steadily.
 MT. Brooker Is a more brilliant man. member of the republican na- tional committee, and has relations with men of great party consequence which would be advantageous to him if he became senator.
 If Mir. Hill should be elected sen. ator 1t would involve a special elec- ton of representative from the Fourth district matter of some ex- pense and a good deal of trouble, which would have been avoided had he announced his candidacy for the aenate earlier, and declined to run for the place Of representative. but few man are altruistic enough to sacrifice bird Tn the hand for the chance of one in the bush. Probably he knew or apprehen1ed that the contest for the senatorship would be lively and tsr from certain, and he Is pru- Gent man. He is very useful where ha is. and 1t Is a satisfaction to know that now In any case Connecticut will not lose his services in the capitol.
 During the canvass just closed there was more or less talk and gossip of & nature hostile to Senator Brandegee, but it was not taken seriously, as the general opir'on seemed to be that he co,jld not bs defeated for a reelection. It seems now that there was q quiet or secret understanding to knock out Rrandegee. It's early development gives color to desire to be early in the field, and also confirms other eiec- ton canvass rumors. These rumors included freely circulated statement that knock out for Brandegee would be followed with an attempt to knock out Senator Bulkeiey in 1911. the only name mentioned for the lat. ters successor being ex-Governor Mclean"

Road Matter Postponed.

The county commissioners met
in lcalled or adjourned session
session Monday for the princi-
pal purpose of considering the
road matter mentioned in these
columns last .week-that is the
question, of changing the road
that leads out by the home of
ex-Sheriff Rigsbee so that it will
come in through West Durham.
Owing to the fact that COM
missioner Owens was out of town
and could not be present at the
meeting. the matter has been in
definitely postponed. This set
ties for the present the question
that has stirred many people who
favor the change and others who
| do not. favor it.
Several minor matters came up
for consideration and were pass
ed on by the commissioners while
they were in session. The most
important matter was relative tt
the price per ton .paid for rock.
The highest price paid per ton SC
far has been 81 cents. Areport
gained circulation that in some
cases the commissioners had paid
rs cents, and the matter was in
vestigated with the above result.

that they do not understand that
we have no choice in the matter
of continuing their subscriptions
unless they are paid.
Some appears to think that tits
merely a ruse to induce them to
pay. Such is not the case, and
all who have not paid within the
limits will have to be stopped on
April the first.
Following is an extract from
the order of the department.
which is effective April 1st. The
order was originally intended to
become effective January LIST but
was postponed to April LIST at the
solicitation of newspaper men:
'.3. A reasonable time will be
allowed publishers to secure re-
newals of subscriptions, but I'M
less subscriptions are expressly
renewed after the term for
which they are paid. within the
following periods:
"Dailies, within three months,
"Tri-weeklies, within six
m1nths,
'Semi-weeklies, within nine
months.
"Weeklies, within one year:
they shall not be counted in the
legitimate list of subscribers,
and copies mailed on account
thereof shall not be accepted for
mailing at the second-class post
age rate of one cent a pound, but
may be mailed at the transient
seeond-class postage rate of one
cent for each four ounces or
fraction thereof, prepaid by
stamps affixed. The right of a
publisher to extend credit for
subscriptions to his publication
is not denied or questioned, but
his compliance or compliance
with this regulation will be taken
into consideration in determin-
ing whether the publication is
entitled to transmission at the
second-class postage rates."
From the above you will see
that we have no choice, but must
comply with the ruling of the
postofice department? Many Of
our subscribers express the wish
that the paper be discontinued a
the end of the time for which
they have paid, and while it ii
not our purpose to be hard OF
any one, after carefully consid
ing the trouble it will be to keeI
record Of some that want thu
paper stopped and others tina
want it continued, we have de
cided that in the near future, VI
shall begin sending out notices
the first Of the month in which
your subscription expires. and il
case you do not renew during
that month your paper will b
discontinued. This will worl
alike to all, and from what man!
subscribers say will be mucl
more satisfactory. In the fu
tire remember that when yot
receive a notice, you should re
new during the month in whic1
you receive same If you do nc
want your paper discontinued.
