It will be popular II will index the return of the govern ment to the people. It will bs purged of the rule by vested interests. It win be free of those archaic and ob- soIete features which have so long made Connecticut an object of critf- cism and the jest of her enemies. This new government Is direfully needed and as possible as the need is real
 ''It will be an era in which labor shall be happy and it's rewards are attractive. A government that is not slated in a business office but enact ed by the people in open forum. A gov ernment that shall not be the patri- mony of the rich but the inheritance of the poor. A government that shah not be dictatorial sword of craft, greed and dishonesty but of honesty and a shield of innocance',
