po,ntment as postmaster at that place. The

assistant postmaster for twenty-four years
and is now IN charge of the postoiiice Is
a candidate for the office.
A number Of his friends who own auto

use OF their machines for his campaign.

friends have also begun vigorous gaso-

rndorses Popular Election OF
Senators and Employers

Hartford. Conn, Jan. 4.-In his inaugural
address to-day Governor Simeon IL bdlu-
win suggested legislative enactments TOT
the regulation OF the navigation or the ar
advocated the extension of suffrage TO
women. election Of United States Senators
nv the people and general economic re-
form
When the first Democrat TO be chosen
Chief Executive of the State of Connecticut
since 1893 formally took possession OF MS
new office there was an unusually ldrse ar
tendance Of we'll known men from all paris
of the commonwealth. although the cere-
mony of induction itself was most simple.
The feature of the inauguration exercises
which caused most comment was the ao-
vocacy by Governor Baldwin of legislation
providing fer the extension or the SUI
frage to women. II was the opinion OF
/ Governor Baldwin that there had oeen
revolution of property relations between
husband and wife. and he said; Taxation
/ without representation does net seem 10 De
/ in harmony with our republican lnsutu-
| tons
The Governor, after making his reference
10 woman suffrage, paid his respects to the
progress made In aviation. This progress
he said. called for new legislation.
"FIving machines" he asserted, put IN
danger all over when they sail II is not
,nprohable that they will be used before
long as a regular mode of transportation
between distant places. and already they
are frequently directed through the air In
connection with public exhibitions or by
way Of experiment.
"I recommend the passage OF statute
providing for their registry in the office
NJ the Town Clerk In each town IN which
one Is owned; forbiddng their use for
flight within this state unless in charge OF
some one approved by competent authority
as capable OF directing their course with
due skill and care, and making the owner
lessee OF charterer liable for all damages
resulting from any voyage I'm one without
nroof OF negligence or fault In its manage
ment."
Although Governor Baldwin did not ad
vocate the enactment OF many new laws
bo maintained that the passage Of an en-
nIovers' liability act, a public utilities com
mission measure. a direct primary act. G
nrovisIon for a state purchasing agent foi
state institutions and an act removing the
limit ~ $500 as death damages was i'm
perative.
The message also favored the election o.
county commissioners by the people. viii
minority representation, and urged th'
printing OF the electors oath in full on th'
hack of each official ballot In order q
impress upon the voters the solemn nature
of the oath.
The proposed election Of United State
Senator's by popular vote was indcrsed. A
to the proposed income tax amendment
, however. Governor Baldwin pointed ou
that before action was taken the Attorne
Generals opinion should be secured.
