understanding that in order to make a ballot valid the voter must place a cross within the circle at the top of one of the party columns, and that failure to so mark a ballot would make the ballot void. and holds that such action is not mandatory but per- missible and that a ballot without cross in the circle is valid if one or more names of candidates are marked with a cross. That is. a voter may or may not place a cross in the cir cle at the top of party column. Another ruling is that a plus sign must be considered an "X' mark, Another is that, when a cross Is made in the circle at the head of a column, and also opposite a name in another column. only the latter shall be counted.
 The decision, as reported. does not clarify the ballot situatio so greatly as is desirable. but possibly its full text may do so. Certainly, the new ballot law gravely needs judicial in- depreciation in most of it's details. If we rightly remember, Judge Gager's decision upsets some of the rulings made by the Attorney General before the official instruc lions as to tha proper use of the ballot. It would be well either that the Supreme court be asked to pass upon the doubtful points. or that the Legislature so amend the law as to make it's provis- ions clearly intelligible.

MOST BEAUTIFUL ACTRESS, KITTY GORDON, IS TO SUE
 HUSBAND FOR A DIVORCE

New York, Dec. 1O.-Kitty Cor don, the7 beautiful English actress. who until a few days ago was the star of Alma" at Joe Weber's Thea Hon. Mrs. Henry Beresford, is going to detach herself from the latter dis tinction, she says. . She expects to accomplish the de- tachment via the British divorce courts.
 eve had my solicitor bring suit against the Hon. MT. Beresford," Miss Gordon announced yesterday in her suite at the St. Francis Hotel
 s'Why?" was asked.
 My word!" replied the actress. ''Why do women generally divorce their husbands?"
 Another wOman?"
 Another one-and then another- and still another. Three!"
 Miss Gordon added that the three were London ladies'; but she had spared their feelings to the extent of statements she made and forwarded, together with the testimony of other witnesses, to her solicitor, William Merrick. of London.
 .'I've been going to divorce the Hon. MT. Beresford for two years or made things up with me, and I gave him another chance each time. But now I'm going to carry it through was informed that MT. Merrick would serve the necessary papers in London this week."
 Society in London will probably be stirred up some over the suit, for the Hon. Henry Beresford is a cou- sin of Lord Charles Beresford and the brother of another peer, Lord Decies. to whose title he may some day succeed.
 
 tirement from Alma was solely be- cause she wanted a rest, and that her approaching divorce suit had nothing to do with it.

TRUE INWARDNESS"
 OF HIGH PROTECTION

The Knights of Labor have. through their General Assembly. petitioned Congress for tariff-revision downward. They say, in the petition. that the pro- tective tariff "has not caused advances in wages to any material extent, and that it has only secured an "aggran- dfzement of capital'. This has. in substance, long been asserted by tariff reformers. Wage increaseS. such as have been granted. have been obtained through the demands of labor organi- cations while in protected industries employing unorganized labor only, wages are still based not upon tariff duties. but upon the supply and de- nand principle in the labor market But on the side of capital. protective duties have brought about combina- lions and trusts for the fixing. and maintenance of high prices. the sup s,-ession of competition. and the rapid manufacture of multi-milionaires. It is pleasing to know that the truth has finally dawned upon at least one labor organization: workingmep have for years been "gulled'' with the so- called full dinner paid.
 The Knights of Labor further say in their petition to Congress:
 We respectfully ask for such a re- vision of the tariff as shall yield no more than is necessary for the needs of government economically admins tered We further believe that the function of government is simply to provide revenue and not protection to special industries and demand a tariff based on revenue. with the inc'dencal protection such a tariff would yield.
 This is the familiar principle of tariff for revenue. with only incl dental protection. which was once and perhaps still is popular with Vest ern Republicans. It differs somewhat from the principle laid down in the last National Republican platform. which was that tariff duties should only equal the difference in cost of production here and abroad. d.z with a reasonable profit. In practical operation. the two principles might not differ widely that is. the duty for revenue upon a given article might equal or approx innate the difference in cost of produc- ton.
 That organized labor is beginning to realize the true inwardness" of high protection, is one of the most hopeful signs of the times.

."One thing the city of Bridgeport should do for the welfare of it's peo- pie is to establish a legal department g said house owner. in East Bridge port. few days ago. ''The city of Dusseldorf. Germany, hires a lawyer no reason why Bridgeport cannot do the same thing. The sum of about $10.000 would hire a good lawyer and a couple of assistants for year. and they could give legal advice to sthe people of the city without charge. because they cannot afford a lawyer. There should be public law office for poor people. New York has it's legal aid societies that are of great use to poor people. A public lawyer with two assistants in this city~would stop the hangers on at the courts and the gang that haunts offices and drums up business for the legal fraternity"
 Several politicians in East Bridge port are enjoying what they consider of certain foreign colony who allied themselves with the Republican party in the last election. The pair thought they were going to hold the money bag on election day. But when cleo ton day did come around a we'll NIlOWH pOilllcldI WHO llNeS OH Iilo west side of the river. a rank outsider, came across the river and doled out the dough.

Both are sore because the Republicans did not put all of the confidence in them they might have done.
 Local Italian politicians are enjoy ing a good joke that was pulled off in New Haven few days prior to elec- ton at the expense of a certain Re publican politician who had plenty of money to put out for club. The Italian State Democratic Association composed of a handful of politicians. found that there was going to be no funds from Democratic sources. They called a meeting of the club two Sun days prior to election and the officers resigned. New officers were re-elect- ed and then a resolution was adopted, changing the name of the organiza ion to the Italian State Independent Club. After this was done the league adopted another resolution endorsing the en-

Governor-elect Wilson of New Jersey has fssued signed statement. antag- onizing the candidacy of James Smith, Jr.. for ID. s. Senator and advocat- ing that of James E. Maritime The reason given by him is that "at the recent primaries 4S.000 Democratic voters. a majority of the whole num- Der who voted at the primaries. de- clared their preference for Mr. Mar tine". As the Democratic party favors election of U. s. Senators by the peo- pie instead of by Legislatures, and as the New Jersey system of nomination by primaries is the nearest possible approach thereto in default of a con- stitutional amendment authorizing direct elections. Gov Wilson's reason seems conclusive. It would be gross breach of good faith to elect Smith when Maritime is the directly-ascer- tained choice of the party.

4 New Haven letter to the Hartford Times having stated that neither Sen- ator Bulkeley nor the rival candidate. MT. Mclean. is able at the present time to count on more than S5 Repub- Iican members of the Legislature, the Hartford Courant denies that any deadlock will occur in the Republican caucus. and renews it's previous asser- fion that a majority of the Republican legislators favor Mclean. but does not give figures in support of the claim.
 It was the current belief immediately after the election that majority of the Republican legislators-elect were Mclean men. During the month since elapsed. doubts as to whether they could be solidly held for him have been expressed. The argument used and still in use is that the defeat of Goodwin for Governor was equally a disapproval of Mclean for Senator, the two candidates having been close ly linked together during the cam paign. How effective this argument has been, we do not know. nor can any one know until the legislative cau- GUS arrives.
 But we are inclined to believe that the Mclean strength has diminished since the election. the amount of the loss being now finascertainable.

It cost the Democratic Congressional committee s27.771.22 to carry the House. while the Republican committee ex- pended $73 337.25 to be defeated. The proportion Is about three to one. and a similar proportion Is found else where, particularly here in Connecti- cut. It proves what has often been asserted. viz, that when the people are aroused, money Is ineffective. or fin other words. that the corruptible element does not constitute balance of power between the two parties. a most reassuring proof of the perma- nency of free institutions.

 A prominent politician who is noted for his uberality. was spending a few days at the seashore two years ago and was awakened after midnight by one of his constituents who had met with misfortune and who wanted to borrow $35 to purchase glass eye. The politician counted out the money and went back to bed. The money was to be paid back in q week. but never a cent was paid. In fact the politician never spoke to the bor- rower of the money until last elec- ton day. When he approached the polls the man with the glass eye ap- preached him from the committee Of the opposing party and asked him to vote for a friend of his.
 The politician did not answer but asked. "How is your eye?"
 Fine" replied the worker.
 'T did not know it took so long to get one of those artificial optics to work" replied the politician.
 'Fow is that?" asked the other.
 ''Why, I have been meeting you once a week for two years and this is the first time that you could ever see me with that new lamp" replied the politician. who entered the polling place and voted the straight Socialist ticket by mistake.
