INVITED TO WITNESS RAISING
OF THE MAINE.

President Taft acted with good
judgment when he extended an invi-
alton to Spain to send a representa-
tive to witness the raising of the bat
eship Maine from Havana harbor;
and Of course. there is a curl ous in
lerc<t to see If the Spanish govern
ment Will accept or decline the invi-
tations. So far as governmental
courts and findings are concerned the
matter is at present a closed issue.
The representatives of this govern
ment found that the battleship was
destroyed by an explosion from the
outside: and those of Spain found
that the ship was blown up and sunk
because of an explosion from the in
side.
1t appears that the old hulk is in far
better condition than has been gem
orally supposed, for Mr.. O'Rourke, the
civilian engineer who has urged that
he be given a chance to try his meth
Cd of lifting sunken vessels, has been
quoted as saying that the Maine is
capable of being patched up to an ex-
tent that would permit its being
brought to New York under it's own
steam or with a little assistance by
tnwage. Army engineers on the other
tahu, are Sdiu 10 HHd tue forward
section of the Maine but a mass Of
debris impossible to be assembled.
1t is to be hoped that an honest in
veStigation will be made of the hull
ard the truth be discovered as to the
exact cause of this disaster, which
prompted conflict between America
and Spain. There are Americans who
go about telling the people that the
disaster was tracea BILE to Americans
and that the Spaniards were not re-
sponsible for it, although they are not
supported by the official documentary
evidence. 1t will be a good thing if
the facts can be made undeniably
clear, and forever settle and settle
right the question as to how the
Maine was blown up with such dis
aStrouS results.

SCHOOLS OF INSTRUCTION NEG
ESSARY

The Australian ballot designed for
Use in this state was found at the
town elections 10 be so complex that
crly the towns that prepared the way
Tor its correct use by schools of in
strurstpn came or with small losses
on accoant OF the confusion and mis-
takes OF the voters under the new
FORM " expressing their choice. 1t
- but three short weeks TO election
day, and The Courant recognizes that
if The republicans desire to win that
they must prepare the way for an in
tefiiEeDt use Of this new ballot by all
citizens. The Bulletin commends the
following words of warning to all the
party managers of eastern Connect
cut:
In some towns where they have en-
terprixtns party managers they have
already arranged for schools of in
st-Hction in the use of the Australian
ballot. That is COED, but it should be
TODD of every town where they are not
TO use voting machines next month.
BY the way, 1T may be mentioned
here that the constitution permits the
use Of voting machines, and conse-
quently no ststute can compel the use
Of the Australian ballot. Wherever
the Australian ballet is used there
should he definite instruction before
election day.
The outcome of the little town
elections Is evidence that such schools
are needed. Think of several thousand
votes being lest at one election. The
movement should start at once to show
people now 10 use the new ballot. 1t
is all right to talk of instructing the
ignorant, but it is we'll, too. to find
out who the ignorant are. BY all re-
ports the college graduate, the profess
sional Than and the Intelligent got
DOWN as deep in the pitfalls of Octo-
Der as did any citizens who had only
a iignfed education to go by.
''5ust bear in mind that it is advis-
able TO teach the whole voting consti-
tuency."

THE HON. STILES JupsoN.

The Hon. Stiles Judson of Stratford
shows up as the most popular man in
his senatorial district, of any man in
the state. His acceptability to the
voters of the Twenty fifth senatorial
district is shown by his nomination
for senator by the conventions of both
parties, which makes his election sure
from the start. He has been in the
military and political life of the state
for about twenty years. His career is
briefly sketched as follows;
He is the son of Stiles Judson, and
was born in Stratford February IS,
1862, received his early education in
the public schools and the Stratford
academy, and was graduated from the
Yale law school with the class of 1885.
He was admitted to the bar the same
year and began practice in New Ha-
ven. He remained there but a short
time. when, he went to Bridgeport and
opened an Office there. He was con-
nected with the Connecticut national
guard for ten years and was at one
time captain of Company K of the old
Fourth regiment. He was a member
Of the house in 1891 and 1895, and of
the senate in 1905 and 1907 being
president pro tenn. of the senate dur
ing the latter session. Upon the death
of Samuel Fessenden, he was appoint
ed states attorney for Fairfield scoun-
ty and holds that office at the pres
ent time.
With such a long record his pop
ularity COMFORTS with efficient and
honest service to his constituents;
and leaves the impression that he is
" orthy of the confidence reposed in
him when both the republican and
democratic parties find him acceptable
in such a campaign as the present

Walking is one of the best autumn

parents are encouraging the fad with
all their power. Walking cannot pos
sibly be harmful. 1t is wholesome, in
expensive and a beneficial method of
exercising. The popularity of walk
ting this fall has been assured, al
though many women differ somewhat
in their ideas of pedestrianism and
the practical side of it. A girl in
making ready for her afternoon tramp
over the hills should don a one-piece
costume, blue serge being of the best
materials, made with a natty blouse
and short skirt. High button shoes
are the best for walking. protecting
the ankles. The hair is tied with a
black ribbon and a wide brimmed
straw hat completes the costume.

coNcERNlNG WOMEN.

j. M. Barrie has analysed six of
Thomas Hardy's novels and found in
them eight heroines, with % lovers,
with incidents that lead to II secret
engagements, three marriages and
three elopemeats that come to nothing.
Nearly everyone of the ladies prac-
tieally proposes to at least one man,
and two run after him to do SO, and
one of them then marries another.
Were these eight women to meet their
Y lovers in, say. the market place of
