'Trumbull,' in the N. Y- Herald, ex- presses the belief that if the Bulkeley succession were left to the people, "Mr. Mclean would be the popular choice, but his danger is in having remained "too long out of the public sight and hearing for the public's memory isn't worth a button.'' The Farmer is in- clined to believe that a popular vote would elect Hill instead of Mclean, if the former could be induced to run against the latter.

Tor some years Connecticut has been
 16nnfa1Iy electing q Congressman-at-
 xe for no better apparent reason nm that the Republican party man.
 <ere could not find any method of c<1tfin< out a fifth district without 6,nkiug at least one of the five Demo- cratic. Evidently they have now [ound method of successfully gerry nuandarfng the State. for the Hartford W Elourant announces that 'it is almost corfa1n that the General Assembly of mn meeting after the census of 1910 . out, will redistrict the state.' This, mo Courant adds. "seems inevitable. g 6or s4he census of 1910 will show still nrna4er discrepancies than appeared in 1Goo, and those were enormous.' In xhnx year the population of the dis Gx1c<e was: First, (Hartford and Tol- land CountiesA, 220,003; Second, CNew z7aven and Middlesex), 310, ,923; Third, (1New London and Windham) 129.619; Fourth CFairfeld and Litchfeld), 247,- n56 The average was 227,000.
 Az one county. New Haven, exceeds fhaeS average by 42,o0o. it would appear 8hat 1t should be district by itself and that Mfddlesex should be placed < with some of the smaller counties. If placed with New London and Wind nam. the Third district would still be below the average of 1900 with a total Of but 170.ooo.
 Tho next largest district is the B6urth, and the third in size is the E1r1t With New Haven county con- Utitut1ng 2 district, and Middlesex uIaoed in the Third, the average of llael three districts, under the census < of 1900, would be 213.000. The popula- 1fon of Hartford county is 95.4S0: that 01 Fairfield county, 1S4.203. But the ceusus of 1910 will undoubtedly make uaatorfaI changes, and it is quite prob , n;ble that Fairfield county which has been steadily growing in population, zki1 show a total entitling it to be set 4 CT as Congressional district by itself
 This will depend largely upon wheth- af or not it can be classed as assured Hy Republican, and whether the other four districts can be so constructed as 10 give Republican pluralities. For it g certainty that this object will be kept steadily in view.

kleeEYs SUCCESSOR.

Now that it is pretty certain that Governor Kibbey will not remain much longer in the executive office at
 Phoenix, the friends of those who are seeking to succeed KIbbey as govrnor
 of she sfr4tory are g'etting busy. One of tn unfortunate features of a territorial government is the fact that the people have no voice in the SO lection of a governor. But this fact does not entirely eliminate the ele- ment of human interest in the seIec. ton of new governor In the past Arizona has been fortunate in the character of the man chosen as gov ernor with one or two exceptions when some pretty rank hombres crept in. According to Republican authority, which ought to be good as to the successor Of Gov. Kibbey. there are only two possibilities: J. C. Adams of Phoenix, and Col W. A.
 Sturges, of Pima county Both of these gentlemen stand high as citi- zens of Arizona and both have ac- complished much in helping to pro mote it's prosperity. Both are dyed Iia-the-wool Republicans and political Iy look very much alike to this paper. HoweveR We violate no confidence nor depart from truth when we say that Col. Sturgess would be the choice of the Republicans of Cochise county Republicans. Both Adams and Sur ges have for several years been prom inent in what is known as the anti Ribbey faction of the Republican party In Arizona. SO it would seem that the appointment of either would mean that the hole bunch of territo- rial officials would be compelled to
 Init the gritr very soon after Kibbey issaes his formal address.

If Governor Kibbey had any eyi- dence of mismanagement on the part of the territorial fair commission in connection with the fair last fall he should have called attention to the
 mismanagemene and demanded the
 resignation of the commissionera several months ago. In connection with the first announcement that the governor had written letters to the commissioners asking them to resign comes a story from Phoenix that the desire on the part Of the governor to get rid of Adams was the fact that Adams was party to the fight being made in Washington against the con firmation of Gov. Kibbcs-. Then later came the insinuating story that there would be charges preferred against the members of the commission be cause of some race or races won by Mir. Adams and Mir. Lockett during the fair. After these stories reflect ing on the commissioners they were left with the choice of either retiring from their positions under a cloud or remaining and demanding an in vestigation. oi course they chose the latter. It is quite likely that Gov. Kibbey will be able to sustain the charges formulated by himself to his own satisfaction. but those who know the commissioners and the success they have made of the fair will de mand mighty positive evidence before they will believe anything was done by the commissioners which could be construed either disc-editable to the Arizona fair or to themselves

PROF. SUMMERS TARIFF IDEA.

Prof William C. Sumner of Yale speaks of the tariff that shuts away our trade with Canada as the "deris- ion of common sense.p
 The navy to defend our oriental trade calls for an increasing annual expenditure of many millions. yet We have bigger and better trade rea@y for us in Canada. across the border of our own country. which is blocked by our foolish custom houses located on said border.
 The same thing may be said of Mex ico. Texas could do magnificent business with the country across the Rio Grande if the custom houses did not make this river. for many com mercial purposes. iH1Eassable.
 No, what ought to be done2 The Democratic demand for q tariff for revenue only as the closest practical approach to the ideal Of free trade does not commend itself to the Re publicans. who, while they have come to admit the necessity for tariff re- vision. stili talk about the principle of protection" which is the most un- principled thing in modern national legislation.
 Prof Sumner advocates tariff abol- ition by countries. A tariff to compen- sate differences of lost of production he pronounies "a futile notion" He insists ther is no such thing as a scientific tariff"
 William c. Zimmerman of Bostoa de seiops the Yale professors idea into the eproposai to establish free trade with the rest of North America, then with South America, then with Africs and Asia, retaining the tariff in a modified form as protection against the manufacturing nations of Europe.
 It is to be feared. however, that this is an acanemical plan. which will not be adopted by the Republican ma jority in congress. who believe in mall. ing profit by legislation for the man ufacturers, their influential Gonstlt- uents. The American people lack tar fir education, This is the crying DC litical need of the day Unless MT. Taft gives us his promised tariff re vision "in the interest of the con. sumer' we will have to have a tar if crusade in this country such as was waged by Golden in Great Bri- tian- The commercial greatness of modern England is due 10 the free trade polier. The United States is so rich in resources and enterprise that it can yet do an immense business with it's tremendous tariff handicap But our population is Increasing so rapidly that the shadow of the specter Of Poverty has begun to fall athwart our bath with a blackness that fright ens thinkers and will yet arouse the American voters and the congressional ways and means committee of tho preseat or the near future.
