CONTINUED From Page -

and his candidacy was materially as
sisted nv the attacks made upon MIN
and the conduct Of the opposition.
His opponents were Lieutenant Gov
ernor Everett L. Lake OF Hartford ana
Governor Rollin S. Woodruff OF New
Haven Lake carried on vigorous
campaien and under different clrcum-
stances might have been a winner. ANA
thereby hangs a tale one that brings
in tho contest for United States sena-
tor.
When Frank B. Brandegee was
elected four years ago he received the
, support of the Fessenden element IN
the marty associated with all those
elements that so fit to break with the
Hartford machine, which planned TO
name former Governor George P. Nc
can and so make two United States
senators from Hartford.
The machine had just triumphed
completely in electing Morgan e.
Bulkeley. But when it came TO nam
ing Mclean, despite his high standing,
the locality cry prevailed ana the res
sender wing triumphed.
This outcome strongly cemented
the alliance between the Brandegee
and the Fesenden forces and when
peace was made with the old machine
the combination became extremely
powerful, as it included most OF the
ablest leaders in the state.
Two years ago Congressman Lllley
was a candidate for governor. so was
Rollin S. Woodruff, then firm follow
err Of the machine. Congressman LII
lev was induced to withdraw with the
promise of the support Of the machine
two years later. Woodruff secured the
nomination by reclamation.
When 1t came time for making nom
nations this year Woodruff at first
had no thought of being a candidate
His political agent had made prom
Use for him and he intended to keep
it. Then, too, he had broken with
the machine leaders.
Lieutenant Governor Lake, who is
extremely popular, came into the
field The majority of the machine
leaders felt more kindly disposed to
ward Lake than to any other candi
date and but for the senatorial com
bination they might possibly have
forgotten their promise to Lilley and
divided upon the question Of naming
a governor.
The senatorial intrusion was due
to the fact that there was doubt about
Lakes position regarding Brandegee
; The leaders were committed absolute
ly to Brandegee and when Lake re
fused to drop those who were known
to be opposed to the New Londor
mans denomination the leaders hest
tated no longer and came out fiat
footed for Lilley
Right here certain interests induced
Governor Woodruff, despite the prom
Use of his political agent, to become
a candidate. This promised to compli
cate matters for the time being. Blu
the governor came too late into tht
field and he failed to make much i'm
preston at the caucuses. He is favor
, ed more or less by the business ele
ment, but has never strongly inspired
the rank and file Of the party and thu
large caucuses held have been over
whelmingly in favor Of Lilley. Thu
rank and file think Lilley has beer
; abused by congress and they wan
, to show what they think Of such &C
tons. This feeling, coupled with TIL
support of the machine, gives Lille,
his strength and it seems impossible
$ TO defeat him.
