CONGRESSMAN REILLY.

(MeriGen JOurnal.)
 Thomas Lawrence Reilly, of Meri- den, congressman from the Second d district, has just been renominated d by the Democrats to succeed himself. only under the new division of the state made by the last Legisl lature he will now be candidate in the Third d district.
 MT. Reilly has served one term in the House but those two years have been busy ones for the only Connec- ticut Dem ocrat and it is said that he has made an enviable record for a new mem Der.
 There is no doubt but that Mr. R Reil1y is popular. He has friends all over the district. both Dem ocratic and Republican, who stand by him at all times. He has worked for his dis triet and has been busy every min ute.
 With the Republican party split badly this should be a good year for Democrats and the fact that there will be a Progressive as well as Re- publican running against him should not lessen his chances
 As things now size up Frank But terworth will be the Progressive and MT. Tilson, now eongr ressInan-at-large, has been named by the Republicans of the Third to run against Mir. Reilly.

National Politics

Nobody can say with certainty who the democratic nominee will be, but l thing it safe bet that there will be no nomination until after the third ballot,'' said Conrad F. Newton of Chicago.
 With so many candidates for the nom- nation in the field 1t stands to reason that no one can get that two-thirds vote on the first or second ballot I have heard some democrats say that Woodrow Wilson would come mighty near getting the two-thirds on the second ballot, but my guess is that two-thirds will go to someone less in the limelight today than is the New Jersey governor. Underwood is more likely to be nominated than Will son, although Wilson will probably start in the convention with larger vote.
 q am a republican, but always take interest in what the democrats are talk ing about or doing. I feel confident that President Taft will be nominated on the first ballot in the republican convention. In our party the majority wins. Roose- welt has no show at all, and what sur prises me is that he has allowed the third term movement to progress as far as it has"

"pOpv TAYLOR,s SERMON

From the New York Herald.
 Wish to live in Happy Valley? Keep out of politics. The answer is from 'Fiddling Bob,'' known also to fame as the senior senator from the state, whose wandering sons he addressed at the sev- enth annual dinner of the Tennessee So- ciety in New York, held in the ballroom of the Waldorf-Astoria last night.
 Senator Robert J. Taylor also charmed his auditors with his dulcet voice, and although he had no fiddle he went through the motions of playing one. Also he lifted up his voice in song. The only really dismal things he said, or warbled, were about politics and the desire some Americans have to accumulate earthly pelf.
 "The American people, said the sena- tor, "are getting so fond of gold that when they go to another realm they will be digging up the streets of the New Jerusalem Some of them, after they get inside the gate where St. Peter stands, will levy a tariff on the harps of the angels for the protection of American in dustry l hear the golden jingle in their laughter and even the eyes of the church are jaundiced with gold,
 Having been born in Happy Valley him self. where the rising sun sends out its shining straws to waken the world and | tickle 1t into laughter, the senator spoke | and sang at full lecture lyceum length I concerning the wonders of the great state 1 from which he had come. We uns of Tennessee some 400 in all, brave men and handsome women in about equal quantities laughed with the Senator and at him and delighted in his quaint stories l of the Volunteer state.

Deficiency in Temperature

We have 213 degrees of heat com ing to us. This big sum of heat units has accumulated since January l. This of itself shows how cold the win ter has been. A winter that is short 213 degrees of heat in month and four days, is indeed cold winter, and a hot summer can alone make this deficiency good.
 It is an ill wind that blows no one any good, and the hope is freely ex- pressed that the low temperatures of the present winter have frozen to death the boil weeyils and other in- sects who had secreted themselves for spells of Information. This, however, remains to be demonstrated next sum- mer, for no one knows the fate of rioxious insects until they fail to re- appear. It is far safer to assume that some boil weevis and some of every other class of hibernating insects will reappear when the sun shines warm again. There are always a few who know where and how to find shelter from even 10 degree weather, and these few soon breed more. Thus the insects is re-established in it's chosen field, and the work of destruction goes on.
 In word then, plant corn and don't depend upon temperature deficiencies. No one who plants corn and cultl- yates it properly comes out loser, while he who pitches his crops accord ing to weather reports may get small returns indeed at the end of the grow ing season.

Violin Artist

Miss Anna Otten will give a violin re- cital at the Country club Thursday aft ernoon next at o'clock under the aus pices of some of the ladies of the Mu- sic Study club. A part of the proceeds will be given to a local charity.
 Miss Ot.en appeared as soloist with the Philharmonic orchestra of Atlanta at q recent Sunday concert and musicians and music lovers there were unstinted in their praise. Miss Louise Dooley, the well known critic of The Atlanta Constitution, spoke of Miss Otten as "a solo violinst whose work it was joy to hear.' The critic then went on to say:
 "She is an American, and the thorough ness of her achievement happily bellies, at least in this instance, the reputation that is fastened upon the American girl student of music abroad, that she will not work. Everything Miss Often did provcc that she had applied herself, her intelli- gence, and her conscience to her music and all three elements spoke through It.
 'The feature of her program was a very beautiful concerto by saint -Saens, opus 61, and the clearness of her pre- sentation of it was such that, although you might never before have heard tine work, it was not the fault of the violin ist if you went away without very in- telligent idea of it. She has the inter- pretative force to put you in touch with the gist of the thing, and if you missed the value of it's detail it was not because Miss Otten failed to bring it out.
 Tn other words she is truly the artist with the intelligence to grasp. and the training to convey. The confidence of skill she possesses in every motion. and in the repose of her work, which put the orchestra at once at their ease. and en- abled them to give her d sympathetic and admirable support.

All Quiet on the Rio Grande

Juarez lies opposite to and just across the bridge from Fl Paso, and this is what renders it a point of strategic interest. The Rio Grande runs between the two towns, and from Juarez the National railroad to Mex ico City starts. Juarez is an impor- tant point, and the recent outbreak there Was for that reason alarming.
 But it really had no political mean ing. It was in the interest of no rev. olutionist. It was more a want of dis cipline than anything else. The Ma dero government again holds Juarez and the men who created the outbreak have been pacified by General Orozco.
 Gen. Leonard A. Wood is holding Uncle Sam's regulars in readiness for service along the Rio Grande, but they will not be needed along the inter- national line, especially if the govern ment of Madero applies the drastic methods of Diaz to irregular out breaks. This is what the federal gov ernment in Mexico proposes to do, and it seems to be a necessary remedy in that country.
