Governor Baldwin Urges
This Step in Advance of
Ballot to All Women
ALSO TACKLES THE VETO
Hits Plan of Passing Over
Disapproval by Just a
Majority Vote, as Here.

Hartford, Feb. 4-The chief speak
er at the banquet Of the Yale Alumni
association Of this city last evening
was Governor Simeon E. Baldwin
chief executive Of the State. Cover
nor Baldwin, after referring to the
training at Yale laying especial en-
phasis on the duty Of public service
and training men especially to the un-
derstanding Of public affairs went on
to speak Of number of measures
which he feels should be considered
and acted upon at the present time
in this State. In regard to these he
said. ST ask you to consider them and
to let the people know your opinion
about them. 1t may be against them.
All right. SO be it. Speak It out. II
may be in favor of them or Of some
Of them. If so, speak that out. It is
your moral duty as educated men, as
our government, to let our legislators
know as you have opportunity, what
you think Of legislation promised or
legislation threatened"
He then took up the subject OF
suffrage which he referred to in his
message and also the question of the
governors veto power and on these
topics he said:
Take for instance the proposition
to give the woman taxpayer the same
right as the man taxpayer to vote in
our towns and cities on municipal
questions. The Married Woman's
property act Of 1877, now regulates
the property, rights of almost all our
married women. They have become
a great propertied class. There are
many widows and single women in
that class also. All Of these are fore
ed to contribute to the appropriations
made by the community where they be-
long. Ought they not to have a cor
responding vote? Must they wait un-
given them? For that Connecticut is
not ready. For giving a vote to tax
paying women. believe we ar~.
fought not the governor to have a
veto that means something? What
States are there besides Connecticut
which do not require two-thirds
vote to override It? What has your
Yale. education taught you as to the
greater caution that naturally attends
the exercise Of greater power on, the
part Of an executive magistrate? What
has il taught you as to the compare
tive danger from i'll considered, legis-
lation and from an ill-considered vote?
And what has it taught you as to
the policy Of restricting special leg
islation that gives to and B and G
privileges that the rest Of us cannot
get? Is there state which has
adopted q new constitution within the
last thirty years that has not put in
to it a prohibition Of special legisla-
ton wherever q general law would an
swer the same end while giving every
body an equal chance to share it's
benefits?'
The governor devoted a consider
able portion Of his speech also to the
question Of a new system of electing
State Senators which he has been ia
voring and which he urges as an i'm
portant matter which must soon be
decided.
Other speakers were Mayor Ed
ward L. Smith OF this city, Walter
Camp, Yale athletic adviser; Profess
sor John c. Schwab of Yale, Rev. Fl.
A. Bridgman of Boston and Rev. C.
r. Carter Of this city.

Two Suicides
extended

Elk Lieutenant Governor j. E.
McDougall, his wife, daughter, Portia,
and son, Tyrrell, passed through Web
ster en- route to their home at Britton
after two weeks attendance at the
encampment of the state militia at
Lake Kampeska, near Watertown.
In conversation with our reporter the
governor said that the evening before
at WATERFOWL there were suicides of
two prosperous farmers. One, man
by the name of Morton H. Lewis, went
into Watertown and got on bender
so reports stated. HIS neighbor, John
Cooke, learning of it, took his automo-
bile and went after Lewis, whom he
persuaded to accompany him home.
On the way and while the machine was
going at a speed or about fifteen miles
an hour, Lewis jumped from the car.
Cooke stopped the machine as quickly
as possible and went back and gathered
Lewis up and took him to Watertown
where it was found he had sustained a
broken neck ard probably was killed
instantaneously.
Cooke then returned to the farm and
told the relatives of the tragedy and
went to bed. Later in the night, possi-
bly, crazed by the death of his friend,
went to his barn and hanged himself,
his body being discovered Tuesday
morning. Both men were among the
most prominent farmers of Codington
county and no cause can be assigned
| for their terrible acts.
In speaking of the militia encamp-
ment, Governor McDougall, who is
major of the militia, said it was the
most successful ever held in the state
and that the boys all had a splendid
i firno
