Their Written Pledges.

The iack-screws which the COnnec- ticut Business Mems association plac- ed back of candidates for the leg1sla- ture at the time of their nomination. were set up one more notch recently through the issuance by the associa- tion of a statement which is reprinted in the news colmns of the Sentinel. The association is also sending out copies of letters written by state sen- ators in wfdch they pledged them selves to stand by and work for pub lie utilities commission. According to the statement, 2S of the 35 state sen ators pledged themselves, previous to election, in favor of public utilities law and commission, and the Business Mems association now takes the op- portunity, for some reason, to refresh ton promises.
 This reason, in all probability. lies in the fact that President Mellen has been presenting his side of the story, which is being followed by signs Of weakening among at least 8 few who, before their elections were sure, were outspoken in their views. Space for bids the printing of these individual letters, and we do not know that any, thing would be gained by doing so at this time. They may, however, prove very interesting reading after the pub lie utilities vote has been taken. By means of these letters it will be pos- sible to ascertain which senators stand firm
 In this connection the Sentinel would state. also, that it has on file at this office the pre- election statements of a great many of the representatives,ke kept solely with view to watching the converts. s."-Ansonia Sentinel.

 Our Editor says 'tWfo'' would like to hear from Glenwood. think we would all be glad to hear from her.
 Her letter appealed to me.

 Professor Parker paid 8 very high tribute to the art of Mr. Mccormack, went into the matter of the old Irish folk song, suggesting that the Knights interest themselves in the formation of singing society, with the purpose of reviving interest in Irish music.
 In concluding Professor Parker gave his auditors a criticism of Herberts s grand opera, "Natoma," which was exceedingly interesting, and an- nounced that Victor Herbert had been invited to conduct his Irish Rhapsody which will be played by the New Ha- ven Symphony orchestra at it's next concert.

Haskell Libel Suit
Against Hearst is to
Be Revived Here

Suit of former Governor c. " Haskell
OF Oklahoma against William r.. Hearst,
owner of the Hearst newspapers and
magazines. and former head Of the indie
pendence league, for 100000 damages for
libel and SANDER. which was started in
the United states circuit court in Omaha
three years ago, is to be brought to trial,
according to John w. Battin, attorney
for Hearst
Within the next two weeks arguments
on a demurrer and on a motion. both
made by Hearst, will be made to Unitet
States Circuit Judge w. II. Munger, Mr.
Battin said. and II they are overruled
the trial will come within a few weeks.
Il supposed the case was to be dropped
from the docket as it is three years since
1t was started" said Mr.. Battin, when
seen at the court house, but l have just
been informed that 1t is not to be dropped
and that Mr.. Haskell proposes to so
through with it.
1.-THE demurrer is on the ground that
the publications complained OF are not
libelous in themselves The motion is to
require the plaintiff to separate his
causes of action. He alleges publication
of the alleged libelous matter in seven
Hearst papers. We assert that the pub
lication in each paper is a separate cause
of action, il there is any cause OF action
at ALL"
The Haskell Hearst case started In the
autumn of 1908, during the national
political campaign. Hearst had organized
the Independence league and was going
about the country attacking the repub-
lican and democratic parties in speeches.
In speeches in Columbus, o., and Mem
pills. Tenn, he made such attacks and
made serious charges against Mr.. Has
kel, then governor of Oklahoma, and Il
member of the democratic national COM
mittee. Haskell prepared petitions for
100000 libel and sent them to several
cities to be filed in any city in which
service could be secured on Mr.. Hearst.
When Hearst came to Omaha one of the
! petitions was filed in the circuit court
here and service was secured, though 1t
was necessary to break into his state
! room.
