Congressman elect Mahan Said to
 Favor This Plan.

One of the visitors to the capitol this week was Hon. Bryan F. Mahan, congressman elect from the Second district, says the Hartford Times. The visit was on Tuesday. the day on which the heads of the departments of the state government are at the capi- tol.
