vancement can say or do will defeat Hon. John P. Studley for governor and no political cunning can defeat Hon. W. A. King for congress. There is one, and only one. danger, and that danger is fast growing less. There IS still possible chance for enough ar dent admirers of Colonel Roosevelt to cast their votes for him at the ex- pense of the man who has in the pas. two years stood so manfully between the people and democratic free trade: As a last warning I beseech you. one and all to vote carly vote a cross a: the head of the second column of can- didates, and don't make a cross on any other part of the ticket.
 The great danger, is carelessness. In the election just passed in Pla1nteld nearly 200 voters made mistakes, and no matter how smart you are there is grave danger the moment you try to split a ticket. What appears easy enough to the better educated voter. or one who has thoroughly looked up the law, appears very differently to 7 man whose only political work is done election day.
 At the election ten years ago I was one of those who instructed. voters how to fold and mark their ballot. Ons school teacher was sent back three times.- In another town near Nor wich one of the men who helped pass the law told me he lost his own vote. 1 So you see there is grave danger in l trying to split. There is but one safe way to vote and that is cross in the republican, circle which means Con necticut for Taft, Connecticut for | Studley, Connecticut for congressmen who are not free traders, and Connec- ticut for legislature controlled by the
 party that in this state passed the weekly payment law. the ten hour and | other shortening of hours laws, the
 party that has made every labor law l that we have on our books, not only i here, but in every state in New Eng 1 land.
 Did you ever think of that, deay reader? Not a single jaw to benefit | the workingman, to improve schools l to benefit the people in any, way, has
 ever been passed in the past quarter i of a century of labor advancement ex- l cept by republican votes!
 Never mind if did vote for Bryan
 I never did it when he advocated free | trade.
 Never mind if did vote for Bryan Bryan never claimed to be a trust
 buster while governor of a state that
 is promoter and protector of more
 trusts than any other state in Amer lea
 Woodrow Wilson is now. and al
 ways has been, an enemy of the pro-
 tective tariff. The great business O.
 Connecticut does now, and always has
 owed it's great prosperity to that sam,
 protective tariff Vote the straigh
 republican ticket and you will no
 have to feel after election "The sad
 dest word of tongue or pen, 1t migh
 have been, it might have been," c. B. MONTGOMERY.

obseurins the Issue.

MT. Editor: What is the real issue before the voters of NorYich today? Does it consist in a choice between several candidates? No, not chiefly The men nominated for the highest office in the nation are all good men, They may have their faults, and so do you and I. But that they are hon estly striving to accomplish the best things no sensible and well informed person can doubt. What, then, do we do when we vote for one of them? We vote for what that candidate stands for, and for what stands behind him. If we wish that the rule of the bosses, together with class legislation, be con-
 tinued, we may vote the regular re-
 publican ticket. If we wish to make
 hopeless effort to rout out the rule
 Of the bosses, with 8 good man at the
 head, we may vote the democratic
 ticket. If we wish to bring back to the people themselves the government
 Of this nation, with one of the strong
 est men in the world as our leader,
 we may vote the progressive ticket. There is not the slightest doubt that the prohibitionists embody in their platform, and in their effort, justice humanity, righteousness, and real pub lie welfare, far beyond that of any of the other parties. But, with such a | government as ours. what can be &C., complished by the effort? Practically that is the whole question. The all important matter of temperance Iegis- lation is lodged by the republican and l the democratic candidates for govern 1 or of this state. The progressive can- didate meets the question fairly as fa1 as he goes.

SUMMING UP
 THE EVIDENCE
Many Norwich People Have Been
 Called As Witnesses.

Week after week has been published the testimony of Norwich people kidney sufferers = backache victims people who have endured many forms of kidney, bladder or urinary disor- ders. These witnesses have used Deans Kidney Pills. All have given their enthusiastic approval. It's the same everywhere. 30,0o0 American men and women are publicly recom- mending Doan's-always in the home papers. Isn't 1t a wonderful, convinc- ing mass of proof? If you are a suf- ferer your verdict must be "Try Doan's first"
 Here's one more Norwich case.
 Daniel Donoghue 193 West Mair Street. Norwich, Conn, says: T car recommend Doan's Kidney Pills highly I had severe pains in the small of my back, across my kidneys, and my bacl was very lame. Doan's Kidney Pills procured at N. D. Sevin & Son. Drug Store. rid me of my trouble in short time, and I therefore canno speak too highly of them" For sale by all dealers. Price 5l cents.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Warning for Voters.

Mir. Editor: The cry of frauds, of the injustice of the tariff, and the wide range of appeal of the charlatan for d change brought the change, and the day after election brought loss of con- tidence and the dawn of the first day of the awful calamity known as the panic of 1893.
 Why not?
 The radicals would soon be in the saddle. Everyone knew this meant an cverturning of conservative business methods. The protective tariff which had done so much to build up the country's industries was to be torn to shreds
 Why not?
 Manufacturers could not know where they were. as they must work one and two years in advance of consumption. No one knew or could guess where values and prices would be in six | months or a. year. Business cannot live on uncertainty, and factories all over the land closed down. Millions of laboring men were thrown out of en- ployment, and like a mad prairie fire destruction reached out to railroads. steamships. banks, mines, wholesalers, retailers, farmers-all must and did suffer. Confidence, the basis of all l business, was gone, and ruin and dis aster and poverty followed in it's train.
 The above from a republican cam pa1gn circular sums up the whole thing in splendid manner. In my own way have tried in the past few weeks to warn the younger voters who do not remember the dark days of Wilsonism and mayhap arouse some of the older ones also. There Is only one issue before the people today-What will You do with prosperity? I have nc time to answer ladies who are non voters-but will say I certainly dc wish they had the right to be in ev- cry one of the states where they dc vote. The defeat of Wilsonism is 8 certainty-so allowed by the democrats themselves.
 Neither have I time for men who should be voters, and tell their neigh. bors they have not voted in 15 years
 The fight Is about over, and in Con- necticut 1t has been won. Nothine that the enemies of progress and ad.

Near al Hand

The fifth day OF the trial of chas.

charged with being the murderer oi
Alvin Batoman at Red Rock was re
sumed this morning Yesterday was
featured By the grilling given witness
es by Prosecutor Embry on cross-eX-
animation in his efforts to impeach
witnesses presented by the defense
tion
Judge Cottera will not allow any
further p0stpenment Of this case, he
reluctantly granted the one Nester-
day From this time on. the case
must 90 on without delay. There are
several other important cases to come
up at this term
Yesterday practically the entire
day was consumed in hearing tcsti-
mpny presented for the defendant.
Only two witnesses were permitted to
go unchallenged by District Attorney
ltmbry. Some OF the Witnesses were
kept on the stand twenty minutes.
One was under fire for thirty minutes
ana when he left the stand, the perspi-
ration was running down his face in
a stream
AS was predicted in The Leader
SaTuTIfdy, the defense viii stake the
successful termination OF this case on
the ground OF mistaken identity
This has been shown all the way
through the case since the defense
submitted witnesses. No evidence DT|
ing brought into court by Jennings or
any other point. Apparently it has
been his aim to raise question OF
doubt as t. the prisoner being Ben
Cravens ana he seems to have done
So but whether or not the masnltud
of this doubt will be su,:cient TO
save the neck Of the defendant from
the moose remains to be seen.
Few who have followed the case
believe the testimony for the defense
has been as strong as had been antcl-
pated. The eXactng and searching
cross -examinat lion OF prosecution ire
quently impeached some OF the best
witnesses yet the attorney for the
defense declares that he is satisfied
he has established ample grounds for
the acquittal OF the prisoner He has
used only about half the witnesses
.he had subpoenaed.
It is believed the crucial testimony
is still to come This is borne out III
part by the instructions OF the court
that all witnesses ubpOenaed III the
case who have not yet received their
discharges should be held in spite ol
the fact that direct testimony both Tor
the defense and prosecution has been
finished and that both attorneys stat
ed they could get along without q
number of witnesses, and would be
willing to do so in order to save eX
pense. the government already being
at an enormous outlay
Interest in the case is growing daliy
Long lines of people are in evidence
each morning early When cour1
!.nally opens a grand rush is made
for seats, and these who are not on
the ground ready for the hour must
