MIR. yopoIN IN The FIELD.

Now that it has been oficially de-
clared by the committee of congress
that Edwin w Higgins was elected
congressman of the Third congression-
al district and that Mr.. Jodoin was
not. 1t may not be amiss to speak OF
Mr.. Jodoin's political ambition to rep
resent eastern Connecticut in con-
gress.
What are his special qualifications,
and does he come out Of his alleged
contest with more strength than he
hitherto had? He declined TO accept
the count of his own party and car
ried the issue to Washington to be set
tied by partisans he hoped would take
advantage of technicalities, if there
were any way to give him an honor he
was not entitled to. In order to do
this he had to indict all the election
boards in the old Third congressional
district of inefficiency and of doing
discreditable work 1t was an assumed
and false position, taken in hope or
personal gain; but his own partisan
counters find that the election count
ing boards Of Connecticut are efficient
and gave the election to the candidate
who had the plurality Of votes and
was entitled to it, which leaves him
guilty OF a false assumption and Of
making false averments against hon
est and competent public servants.
Certainly this result of the issue in
no way helps him or makes him a
more desirable candidate than before.
So far as The Bulletin is aware, Mr..
Jodoin has had no training which
qualities him to become a competent
successor of any congressman who
has represented the old Third district
at Washington in a quarter Of CEN
fury.
AS to the new Second congressional
district there are new lines and new
contestants for this high honor in
Tolland and Middlesex counties and
the broadening of the field has in no
way added to Mr.. Jodoin's chances Of
success.
Mr.. Jodoin's desire to get something
which he had no claim to. his display
of selfshness and his arraignment of
our election officials for incompetence
have in no way added to his public
popularity or strength, or increased the
possibilities Of his controlling the next
democratic convention. In fact, with
such a man as Mahan of New London
in the field from his own party he
doesn't stand a ghost Of chance.
If every other quality possessed by
Mr. Jodoin was the equal Of his per-
sistence in a forlorn hope, of course
he would be the political darling of the
coming campaign.

When Frances Carey returned from
the tennis club one afternoon and
casually informed her mother that she
had been playing with Tom Taylor,
old Peter Taylor's grandson. Mrs. Ca
rey performed the feat popularly
known as throwing a fit."
"Old Peter Taylor's grandson" she
cried. Surely you are not serious"
We'll, he said he was" declared
Frances. AT least he said that his
grandfather was named Peter and
that he used to live here, SO ! suppose
he's the one you used to know But
he's visiting Clayton Porter. so l think
the faint of his grandfather must
have been somewhat reduced"

TT seems awfully hard for every one
to be judged entirely by GRANDPA

Taylor is a fine business man and he
made a wonderful record at college.
Besides, he's visiting the Porters and
you know Mrs. Perter's the fussiest
woman alive about the people she en-
tertains'.
Mrs. Porter can do as she pleases,"
Mrs. Carey conceded very graciously,
but ! must ask that you respect my

meekly.
Afterward she excused her later con-
duct by saying that since her moth

could remember she had a perfect
right to be as pleasant to Tom Tay-

Interpretation of her f1lial duty was
that the young man with the objec-
