 Up to Tuesday the national Demo- cratic committee had raised a cam paign fund of $630,000, and it is ex- pected the expenses of the presiden- tial fight will total 8 round million dollars. Compared with some cam paigns of the past this will be getting by easy.-Bridgeport Telegram.
 We wonder why it is that the high CT the price of milk goes, the poorer the quality becomes. Is such a con- dition absolutely necessary, or does | 1t come about through a lack of sys- tematic inspection? It seems to be a | matter in which eternal vigilance in | needed-and perhaps more frequent | rosecution-Ansonia Sentinel
 With the West Point game disposed | of, Yale now turns to a series of threo | home games which are to prepare her for the contest with Princeton, which l in turn will make or break her for the final struggle with Harvard, observed only of the elect. The Yale team is an enigma yet but all lovers of foot ball will delight to puzzle over the enigma-New Haven Register.
 | There ought to be a protective tariff or a protective something in favor of law and order. It's mighty provoking when a gang of cutthroats come all the way from Chicago with a woman l der her. Now Connecticut must get | the credit for that homicide in the sta- tistics to be preserved for future gen. erations.-Waterbury Republican. Revolt is manifesting itself against the complicated zone system of ths parcels post But wait long enough until the express monopolies get from under and a fiat rate will be the re- suit. The express companies have en- joyed fayOrs to such an extent and for such a length of time that it would not do for the government to let them drop too uddenly.-Middletown Press.
 And it is this tendency to have his way at any cost that makes Colonel Roosevelt that big question mark in the minds of most people. The fact that the tendency increases with his years is noticeable-quite the most noticeable thing in his makeup. And 1t is the headstrong tendency to have his way no matter what the reckoning may be that suggests danger In giv- ing him too much leeway in the poli- tical affairs of this nation.-Hartford Post.
 The passing of Jack Johnson is at hand. Those who are interested in pugilism need no longer concern them
 selves with the development of
 white hope to snatch from the brow
 of that filthy negro the wreath of victory which was placed there two
 years ago last July, when Jim Jeffries failed to cope successfully with the black challenger for the championship. The most despised man who ever was Fprominent in the sporting world has reached the end of his rope; had he
 been in some localities he would now
 be dangling at the end of some other mans rope.-Providence Tribune.
 The political campaign in thi sstate
 has come right down to a question whether democrats or republicans are
 going to carry it Nobody of ob-
 servation has any idea that the Pro- gressives have any chance of winning.
 What they can accomplish at most is confusion. Whichever patty they draw most votes from must naturally be weakened to just that extent. Dem
 ocratic managers are trying to make
 serious minded republicans vote for
 Wilson on the ground that that is the
 way to beat Roosevelt But, bless you,
 Roosevelt is already beaten. That talk
 is a trap. The thing for the voter to
 decide is first, whether he will throw
 away his vote, and after that, if he
 decides to have it count, whether to
 cast it for Taft or Wilson.-Hartford
 Courant.
