A Chance for the People.

The greatest objection to a state
primary is the entrance fee the can
didate has to pay. But the objec-
tion to a convention are many and
serious. At a state convention the
voice of the people is seldom heard
and tricksters and the interest"
generally have things their own way.

BEARD WOULDN'T
 MARRY COUPLE AND
 THERE'S A REASON
But Justice of Peace Had
 No Such ScrnpleS.

Rev. Gerald H. Beard, pastor of the Park Street Congregational church, de-
 clined to marry a couple yesterday be-
 cause the bride had been divorced and
 did not bring a copy of the decree of
 the court to show that she had been
 the aggrieved party in the separation
 proceedings.
 According to the records of the town
 clerks office the bride was Mrs Mary Burdick, aged 35, a resident of New Britain. The groom was R. w. Good year, aged 8, of New Haven. He gave his business as musical dealer.'' The bride was a brunette neatly at
 tired and the groom was well appear ing. They were an exceptionally re- | fined looking couple and they wanted to be directed to the residence of Rev. Gerald H. Beard.
 ''The woman had, been divorced and 1 declined to marry them because she did not have her papers, said MT Beard today Upon the refusal of the clergyman to off1ciate, the couple were made man
 and wife by justice of the peace.

 London, Jan. 13.-"The enemy is pouring out it's money like water, for the booty is immense; the plumber of the people, the monopoly of the land and a. drink monopoly. All the powers of wealth and luxury are allied in an assault upon the peoples food, liberty and life. We want such a victory as W ill put the fear of God in the hearts of these desolators.
 This was the conclusion of an appeal to the voters today by the News, the leading Liberal paper.
 Today is the hottest of the campaign, marking the last day before nomina- tions. Never in the history of Eng fish politics has a campaign closed with such bitterness and such yituper- ation. Newspapers. speakers and can- didates are exchanging such epithets as liars, thieves. traitors, and anarchists, with a freedom such as no American campaign ever witnessed.
 The election promises to result in an unprecedented batch of libel and islander suits. Between 30 and 40 can didates have either announced that they will sue or are known to be pre- pairing to sue as a result of cartoons, posters and statements published with in the last "A hours. The suits, if brought, will involve many of the most prominent politicians and journals in England.
 Ordinarily Englishmen are very chary of slandering and labelling each other but the campaign has waged so hot that all restraint has been cast aside and there is no extreme to which the politicians seem unwilling to go The increasing frequency of fights

New York, Jan. 13.-Before White law Reid, ambassador to Great Bri- tain, arrived here on his way to the funeral of his father-in-law. D. O. Mills, he sent wireless messages con- 'taining what amounted to general de- nials of the reports that he had talk en an active part in the campaign for the general elections in England. A letter which Mr.. Reid wrote to a friend regarding the number of un- employed men in the United States was used as a campaign document by some of the Conservatives and found it's way into print. It was difficult to construe the letter as having any bearing on the political fight, but it was so regarded in some quarters. MT. Reid said he had never authorized the publication of the letter or it's use in the campaign.

LADIES OF ST. PETERS TO TRY

Next "wednesday night, Jan. 18th, the ladies of St. Peters parish are to, give a social and dance at the S1ocum gymnasium hall. This will be the last of the pre-lenten entertain Tnents to be held under the auspices of this parish and every effort is be- ing made to make this concluding en- tertainment the banner one. A friend ly rivalry exists between the ladies and gentlemen of the parish and this rivalry is an additional, incentive for them to work and if possible to sur- pass in results that very successful concert and dance given but a short time, ago under the direction of the men and if we are to judge results by the ladies' enthusiasm and the large advance sale of tickets now going on the gentlemen have reason to be fear full of the laurels which they have borne victorious for a while.
