COMMISSION REPORTS,

The Hartford Times reminds for
getful public that severai important
commission reports will be made to
the incoming general assembly. In the
rush Of many things, and because of
the quiet with which most Of the COM
missions have done their work, other
matters have held the center of the
stage.
The most important report will be
that Of the public utilities commission.

LET THE MASTERS SPEAK.

y 1t Is grievous thing to disagree
with ones contemporaries. 1t is SO
much greater fun to dance with them
to the same tune and gaze longingly
into sympathetic eyes. Sass our old
friend and mentor the Hartford Cour-
ants 1.-THE main thing Is the state of
Connecticut. 1t Is up to Mr.. Lilley to
let the citizens whose votes he desires
know where he stands on the ques-
lions Of the hour in which Connecticut
Is Interested"
A more proper course Of conduct
could not be outlined for the Republi-
can candidate for governor. In this
connection the people OF the state of
Connecticut want to hear the issues
discussed by the men who are fgur-
ing to occupy the office of governor,
in fact though not In name, and to d.
rect legislation through the general
assembly. We refer to the Republi-
can machine, which Is commanded by
Grsimus r. Fyler, of Torrington. An
drew F. Gates Of Hartford and Henry
Romback Of Salisbury These are his
political masters because they have
made him, and 1t would be the gross
t,,Jo tvr Ia n,
refuse to follow them should the
voters in mistaken moment. or mis-
guided fear for Mr.. Taft, elect him
governor of Connecticut.
We do not rashly assert that those
men are the political masters Of Can
dldate Liley, or as the Waterbury
American would put 1t, to abuse
him. 1t is based upon careful study
of the facts which have led up to
his nomination. These were the men
who decided over a year and hall
ago, at a moment when the admin
istration of Governor Woodruff was
injecting with the acclaim Of the
press and the public, that Woodruff
should be set aside, Lieutenant Gov
ernor Lake denied the benefit OF
an old party tradition and Mr.. Lilley
given the nomination. Not caucu'
had been held at the time dispatch
was sent to Mr.. Lilley upon his arr.
val In San. Francisco from Honolulu
Informing him that, his nomination
had been decided upon by the ma
chine. From that moment until tn,
present moment he has been In thu
hands not Of the people, but Of hi!
masters.
Those were the men who told hin
last spring that he would have 4oN
votes In the nominating convention
1t was upon their assurance that h
