to put his guests at ease. Judge Baldwin
presents distinguished appearance. He
is about five feet and eight inches tall,
has a massive head with an unusually
wide forehead, keen eyes, and has
beard. He is alert and active, and does
not show his advanced age.
Judge Baldwin's election Is predicted by
well-informed people Connecticut Is
normally a republican state, and a demo-
crat has not occupied the governors
chair in years But the people of that
state are disguised with corporate and
boss domination and the regime of Sena-
tor Buckley, Colonel Ullman and the
other republican bosses, has met Its
DOOM Judge Baldwin is the strongest
democrat In Connecticut. The nomina-
ton sought him, and 1t was proffered by
reclamation. The people of that state
have the opportunity of electing an able
man, q man who would be an honor to
the state and to the nation. 1t is highly
probable that they will grasp the op-
portunity and elect him. His election
would restore the government of Con-
necticut to the people, and would have
most salutary and wholesome effect on
the nation. If he is elected, Judge Bald
win will become a potent factor in the
coming presidential election. His name
would add strength, dignity and prestige
to any ticket.
Charles A. Goodwin, is also a Yale man,

ing watched and followed by the sons of

connection with the university would
make his election a Yale event.

STILL LAND OF FREE
No Breach Visible in the Wall of Popu-
lar Government

From the North American Review.
History from the beginning of gov
ernments to the beginning of the repub-
lie is a seamy record of tyranny of the
strong, the rich, the powerful. To this
day, in nearly all lands except our own
real dominance is exercised openly by
a class. In Russia autocracy still
rules; in Germany monarchy "be-
queathed by Cod still has the final
word; In Italy, the nobility; in Eng
land, the aristocracy; in Spain, but
yesterday, the church, even in France,
clearly a class, the socialists, hold the
balance of power. The individual is
still his own master at the polls and
in his home. Serfdom Is no more. Per-
sonal service is not synonymous with
political servitude. Ours is still the
land of the free; and whatever differ
ences exist respecting the powers of
governance relate chiefly, on the one
hand. to restriction of suffrage and, son
the other, to the elimination of sex
qualification. Neither. project involves
revolution. Each seeks considerable
upon the ground of policy, despite the
insistence, in the second instance, of
inherent right. Could the fathers have
been assured of so happy a condition
among 100000 of people, can we
doubt that they would have felt far
more confident than they did feel that
the foundations they We're laying with
such care and foresight as were with
In their power to exercise would prove
indeed everlasting? Assuredly there is
no visible breach in the wall of gov

By RoDERIoK CLIFFORD

Washington September 24-(Special)-
The troubles in the ranks of the grand
old republican party are not confined to
the troubfes between the regulars and in
surgents. The regulars are having
troubles between themselves. Their
troubles will not come to a head until the
campaign for the control of the next
House of Representatives is settled in
November. Theirs is a family row over
the management of affairs.
Members of Congress. regular republic
cans, who are drifting into Washington
spasmodically these days looking after
wants of constituents are red hot over
tire campaign management methods of the
republican congressional organization
They believe that a serious mistake has
been made in the conduct of affairs of
the last two years and that the con-
regulars will have to foresake old politi
cal campaign methods and adopt the
progressive ways of the insurgents to get
supporters and succeed at the polls.
Publicity is what the malcontents in the
regular republican ranks want. They
point out that LaFollette. Cummins and
the other successful Insurgents main
tanned press agencies, and like former
President Roosevelt, never allowed their
names or ideas to grow cold in the col
umns of the press. They want the con-
gressional organization to go into the
publicity business.
