COLD STORAGE FooDsTUFTs.
CTorrington Register)

Whatever may be the outcome of the proposed legislation to regulate cold storage of foodstuffs, the one consideration of human health should be kept in mind, above everything else. If it is, a just law may be obtained, and if it guides further in the enforcement of the law there need be no more trouble. How long quantities of food or foodstuffs should be kept in storage or in what volume ought not to give serious difficulty if all interests are in earnest about conserving peoples health. It is a matter of social economy first, indus- trial last. It should never be possi- ble for articles of food to be kept in storage until they are impaired so that they may menace the lives of consumers. No financial consideration should be great enough to outweigh this one object. It is all nonsense to say that experts in cold storage can not tell how long each commodity may stand the process. The purpose primarily of the cold storage system was a good one, and if it was faith fully carried out it would have a very helpful influence on the household CTS pocketbook and health alike. But the primary purpose was not to faci- litate speculation. And the law should be so framed as to see that men do not gamble in~ these neces- saries of life, both to the physical and financial injury of the consumer.

KEENEY'S EMPIRE.

Fred Rays players in their scream ing travesty on Shakespeare will make a big hit at Keeneys this week. This act is original in the extreme, and as these noted players are well known to Bridgeport theatre goers, their ability cannot be questioned. The Musical Stoddards have a side splitting comedy musical act They are musical artists supreme but their comedy also needs special mention. Music lovers must be catered to, and this act will be bound to please Hal lev and Noble in rapid fire conver- sational act will be a. big hit. Tom Jenkins, novelty artist, can safely be said to Be the most rapid cartoonist on the vaudeville stage. He does all his work in full view of the audience and his subjects are exceptionally good. A great bicycle act is given by Tony Castellane and brother. They do some remarkable stunts with the aid of a spring board, turning somer- saults in the air. etc. This is daring in the extreme. New and up-to-date pictures close this big and pleasing bill.

VOICE OF DISSATISFACTION.

E. Philadelphia North American)
 The American people yesterday gave a tremendous expression of censure and dissatisfaction. The real meaning of the nominally Democratic sweep Of the great states east of the Mis- sissippi was not partisan gain, but repudiation of the false leadership of the Republican party during the past two years.
 The people were angered at in- creased burdens laid upon them. And while unconverted to the principles of the Democratic party, they used that party ticket to punish pledge breakers, servants of privilege, corrupt machines and standpat reaction.
 There were exceptions. But the rule was that where progressive Re- pubiicans had gained control of their party organization, crushed corrupt bossism and set their house in order Republican majorities were maintain ed.
 Uncleansed Republicanism in Mas sachusetts, Connecticut and Ohio was buried under mountain high popular disapproval. New Hampshire's Re- publicanism. regenerated, triuanphed with her sister insurgent states of the west.

HILLS REBUKE TO HAWLEY.

 Sheriff Hawley, of Fairfield county, was among those who fell by the wayside on Tuesday and there is some speculation as to whether he was crushed by the landslide or whether some of the Hill men administered a rebuke to him for his attitude in the Hil1-Brandegee senatorial contest two years ago, when he came out for the New London candidate. The re- turns from Norwalk, the home of Congressman Hill, shows his vote to have been 1928 and that of Sheriff Hawley 1235, several hundred less than that cast for any other Republi- can candidate. The figures look as if the knife had been applied to "Sid'' in the congressman's town

 The Hartford Courant seems to die hard politicall. As a sort of means of tapering off on the severe solar plexus blow received Tuesday, the at tention of readers is being called to Judge Baldwin's staff and wondering what kind of stage paint the incom- ing governor will use to have a re- spectable makeup so to speak in his official family. The suggestion is made that Governor Baldwin have no staff We'll, that wouldn't be a bad idea considering some of the exhibi- tions made by members of governors staffs during late years.

DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.
CNew Britain Herald.)


 Some students of political events have reached the conclusion that Con- necticut is still a Republican State and they point to the fact that the State tisket below that of Governor has been elected and that the Legislature is again Republican. This is true and one has only to go back to 1892, when the Democrats carried the State only to be beaten at every election since. It must be remembered, how ever, that there is a new class of voters on the scene now and that having once secured a Democratic victory they may be so pleased with it that they may feel inclined to re- peat their work another year. The Connecticut Democracy lost a large number of voters in 1896, the dissatis- fled ones going over to the Republican party and remaining there until last Tuesday. They are now back and they may stay. back. If they do the Dem ocratic organization may remain in power for longer period than some folks imagine.

ABOUT COUNTY OFFICIALS

Hartford Courant.''
 Certain Fairfield county newspapers are intImating that the incoming Re publican Legislature will elect Demo- cratic county commissioners for that county inasmuch as the majority of the members of the General Assembly from Fairfield county are Democrats. They say the county legislative cau- GUS has hitherto named the men and the same policy should now be fol- lowed.
 Without making inquiry we venture the prediction that this will not go down. For years "The Courant" has protested against the manner in which county affairs are organized. But the custom stands. The majority in the General Assembly names the commis- sioners in each county, letting it's county elegation-majority or mi- nority as may be-elect the candi- dates.

 The real problem is how to get better method of selection. It has been often suggested that the courts should choose the commissioners or some board to pass on liquor licenses We observe with interest that Sheriff Sid" Hawley, who will be ex-Sher- if in June, is out with the sugges- tion that the election of sheriff is mistake and that the judges should select such officials as they select State Attorneys This Is putting an- other political load on the back of the judiciary. It should be noted that the judges protest vehemently against any of these innovations that tend to draw them into political re- lations, and there Is much to sustain JneIr objection.
 As for the sheriffs, they are con- officials, and the Consti- tuition has always demanded that they be elected. Up to 1888 the General Assembly elected them. Since then they have been elected by the people of their counties. "The Courant" |, would be able to bear up if all the county lines were abolished, the Jails put upon the State and the work now assigned to county officials distributed among other agencies.

Put perhaps Judge Baldwin wants a little nicotine in his. The Courant also says that by dispensing with staff he would increase his leisure, inde- pendence and personal comfort But the judge has shown that he does not care much for leisure, revels in the personal discomfort of politics and can take care of his independence under any conditions. We advise the .Courant to give it up. At the same time. we agree with it that the State

A Startling Fact.
CNew Haven Register.)

Analysis of the Connecticut vote for Governor reveals the somewhat start ling fact that Judge Baldwin was elected by total vote of 5.312 smaller than that by which Judge Robertson was defeated in 1908. The total num- Der who voted for both candidates in 1910 was 29, ,994 smaller than the total in 1908. AS Connecticut surely has not declined in population in the two years, where were the 9,994, and what, had they voted, would have been the possible effect of their vote on a plu- raIity of 3929?
