TO RUN AGAIN.
Raymond J. Jodoin Tells Putnam Friends He Is No Quitter-TaIks Frankly of Plans.

Raymond J. Jodoin of Baltic will again be a candidate this fall for the democratic nomination for representa- tive in congress from this district Mir. Jodoin made the announcement while in Putnam Monday afternoon. He made it strong, too, and says he will be right in the fight to the finish.
 MT. JOooin says he has no criticism to make of the treatment that he re- ceived at Washington or over the fact that Congressman Higgins has been awarded the contested seat but he feels that the strong showing that he made in the last election makes him owe to himself and the people that voted for him the duty of making another try for the office.
 When I start this time" said Mir Jodoin, T am going to keep right at it. l shall ask my firm for a vacation. take off my ceat and go after the job. am doing tt now, in fact. and have been ever since l was candidate the last time When I talk cheese or crackers with man I also take time to find out where he stands on the matter of sending a congressman from this district to Washington.
 This year when I really get to work if it is a case of where I have to do lL to get LIlc FuLths l Will 30 up Into Woodstock, for example, and help the fellow l am after to do his blowing if I can't get him any easier way. I am willing to meet the expense. and as long as I am spending my own money in an honest way, nobody ought to kick"
 In discussing an article that ap- l peared in a Waterbury paper of Sun day, MT. Jodoin said: T see that they l intimate that l am not very well known | in Windham county except around Putnam and Plaintield or something ! like that, and that my principal sup l port came from the French voters, who are rapidly going back to Canada. but ] will tell them this-l am one that is not going back ] am here to stay. ." When asked how much opposition he expected to have in securing the nom i nation. MT J0doin said that he under stood that Mayor Bryan F. Mahan of | New London was in receptive atti- 1 tude and probably the strongest man mentioned against him. but this did | not seem to worry him any Mr. JO- | doin said he was going to make a big 1 try for the nomination, and added If ! I get it and lose out, l am through | for good"
 A peculiar circumstance was that ! Mir Jodoin concluded his interview to | shake hands with Mayor Dunn of Will | limantic, who was going on the same ! train to Willimantic with him. and wh0 | has also been mentioned as receptive l for the nomination for the same office
 that MT. Jodoin seeks.
