TWO MONTHS
 CAMPAIGN TOO LONG.

The Democratic State Convention is 0 meet in New Haven, Sept. 7-8; the Republican convention, at Hart ord. Sept. 1914. It is unusual for the Democratic convention to precede the Republican convention; ordinarily, the Democrats await Republican action, ,ut this time their choice for Governor S already practically determined, and ,ot in any way dependent upon the lction of the Republican convention.
 It is somewhat to be regretted that such lengthy period as nearly two months is allowed for the campaign. Nothing like so much time is really needed by either party, and were it not ,or the new ballot system. the election .,ould as we'll be held next week as in November The pending issues have ilready been exhaustively discussed md the campaign. in it's surface part, will be made up, of reiterations of arguments pro and con with which the voters are, or should be fully con- yersant Delay simply gives time for lub-surface work, and the public inter- est would be promoted by its total absence. --- 4-
 Aside from the J.l S. Senatorial con- test, fht moFge2'lnfmpp pprtant issues are he public utilities, employers liabil- ty and death damage questions, up- on each of which facts and argments have appeared in profusion for sew eral years. Other issues are of minor importance. It is upon the three cited, and the Senatorial con- test that the campaign will turn.
 The prospective candidates for the leading offices are already we'll Snown. Most of them have been in -the limelight of publicity long enough for their records and affilia- lions to be known of all men.
 As above said we regret that the campaign is to cover such a lengthy period. In these days of telegraph, telephone, newspaper and R. F. D. publicity, every voter in the State can be as fully informed as to candidates and issues in two weeks as in two. months and with much less chance of becoming muddled through wilful mis- statements.

Banker Clews names, in his week ly review, a number of unfavorable conditions: Cotton crop unpromising wheat, nothing more than an average crop; political discontent, particularly in the Vest; country entering upon "a period of reaction, retrenchment and readustment,' though with "noth- ing severe in this direction;'' railroads In need of higher freight rates. On the other hand, the corn crop which amounts to about one-fourth of our total agricultural products, promises about 5000, 900 bushels, and the condition of wheat is improving. In the stock market, according to MT. Clews, adverse conditions have all ready been discounted. He adds:
 Many stocks are now selling at prices which should be attractive to the in veStor, even in event of reduced div idends. Liquidation has been severe; many weak spots have been removed and stocks have passed from weaker into strong hands. It is impossible to avoid the conclusion that the dras- tic liquidation of the last six months must have very materially strengthen ed the technical situation of the stock market. So far as the railroads are concerned there is a fair prospect of their securing better rates when their appeal comes before the Inter state Commerce Commissioners after the November elections. It is also inn portant failures Or excitement.
 in excellent control; this being dem- onstrated by the skilful manner in which heavy liquidation has been ac- complished without causing any i'm pOrtant failures or excitement
 Perhaps the best feature in the whole sitation is the very decided inn provement in monetary affairs. Pos Sibly there may be some local string .ency or disturbance from overexten- sion of credits in the interior, but nothing serious in this respect is now apprehended, or certainly nothing more than what the banks can easily take care of. The financial situation is now well under control. Bankers are conservative. and encouraging con- tracti0EdLOnO broad is z,
 gold imports Mnir=-cOntinue; Europe has aided us immensely by free pur- chases of securities; the Eastern banks have greatly strengthened themselves. and are perfectly able to give needed assistance for marketingj the crops; so that there is no further reason for the apprehensions which existed in the early half of the year. Crre4fcy associations are being form ed in many States throughout the in terior, which will avoid any emergen- cy: but, as no emergency is now ex- pected their usefulness is not likely to be tested. We thus find that the market is working under conflicting conditions but into a safer position. Forced liquidation has about exhaust ed itself and the fact that security values are already upon such a low basis strengthens the probability of sharp rallies hereafter. Hence on pro- nounced declines the better class of securities should be considered prac- tically at bargain prices for investors and, if the crops turn out well, there is reason for expecting substantial recovery. It is, however, still largely a crop market-for the present.
