VOTERS WANT THE
 FACTS ON BOTH SIT


 MT. Judson, Republican nominee for jSenator in the 18th district, acquits MT Banks, his unsuccessful competi-
 tor for the nomination, of all suspic- ion of bribery, but declares that the attempted bribery was the act of tttae
 New Haven road and the agents of the road, and he proposes to probe the 1 matter thoroughly. And so we now ihave- from Mir. Judson information as Ito thesidentitY of the wouId-be briber. tUpon how solid foundation;s MT. Jud-
 sons accusation is based, does not yet happear, and it is somewhat improbable ethat he will, in advance of legal pro I ceedings to be instituted by him, di- Fvu1ge the basis of his statement.
 MT. Banks has also made charges, in connection with the Westport eau GUS. Those charges are, in substance, that this caucus was carried against him by improper means, and that men were well paid~ for this work Now, if the source of the money said to have been thus used could be ascertained, the Republican case in the 18th dis trictS would be completed. It is as much the duty of MT. Judson, as States Attorney, to investigate the alleged improper acts of agents work Ting in the interest of his own candi- dacy, as those of ''the agents of the road' working in the interest of MT. Banks. It is not a case in which flesh can be made of the one side. and fish of the other. by an honest official. Nor is it 8 matter in which mutual exculptations of each other personally by Messrs. Judson and Banks suffice to abate the scandal. Though not Nissourians, the voters of the district want to know the true inwardness'' of the matter.
 At the commencement of the Jud- son-Banks contest, the Farmer stated its belief that more than the honor or the salary, OF both, of the office was at stake, and that, in it's opinion, the U. $. Senatorship and the public util- ities question were involved therein. to MT. Judson, the greatest public service corporation of the State was desirous of his defeat; presum- ably, then, it desired the success of MT. Banks. Now, the question recurs, What person or interest so desired the defeat of Banks in the Westport eau GUS as, according to MT Banks in formants, to use money? Does the fact that Judson favors the reelection of Senator Bu1keley, while Banks would support Mclean, account for the Westport caucus events?
 If so the Farmers original state ment that the U. $. Senatorship and the public utilities question were in voIved in the Judson-Banks contest, stands confirmed.

The New York Tribune finds in the Maine election "a warning to the Re publican party that it must fight this year in many sections of the country against the drift of sentiment instead of with it'', and that it must 'tcut loose from the incubus of bossisnl, re- acton and rule from the top and go to the voters with a program thor ough1y in harmony with the increasing public demand for fuller popular rule and higher standards of government ''
 Has it done this in Connecticut? :? Are tfba1lot-box stuh1ng'', bribery or attempted bribery. etc, synptomatic

Should Col. Roosevelt be elected fchairman of the New York Republican kState conventions his success will tend to boom the cause Of Insurgency, though the effect will be somewhat 1essened by the agreed-upon endorse ment of the Taft Administration in the platform. Perhaps the most sig
 nificant result of the recent Taft Roosevelt conference was the agree ment that the platform should not endorse President Taft for renomina-
 ton.
