There is political feeling in New London and other towns in this sec ton that there will be a lack of profes-

the specified salary, receive transpor- tation at no cost to them. Now, con- ditions have changed and the ieg1s- lators are required to dig down in their jeans and help the state to Day for their services. For this reason men who are experienced in legislative matters, especially from the small towns, men who have been ever ready nouncing that they ''do not care to run again
 Governor Baldwin. the learned jurist and yet a student of constitutional tutional for members of the legisla- ture to receive but one round trip in mileage. That's all they received last session and that's all they will receive for services at the coming session. The reform governor made the dis covery and insisted on strict observ- ance of the constitution. But, he must know. as everybody knows, that the framers never intended that legislators should be required to pay for the privilege of serving the state. But that is the law and, according to the governor it is good law and must stand, until repealed by the people, and that cannot be done so that the members of the next session can have the benefit, for it takes two years to make a change in the constitution.
 In consequence of the Columbus act of Governor Baldwin, he did not have Political friends among the members of the legislature. and if there are enough of them among the delegates to the state convention he will be de- feated in his desire to get the demo- cratic nomination to represent the state in part in the United States senate. It can also be set down as fact that none of the republican mem bers will waste their votes on him, ghn1ld ha hnnT1ar, hV or crook to get the nomination, and many democratic votes will be missing in the general summing up. The leg islators are elected as representatives of the people of the state, and as such have more or less political influence f1uence will not be exerted for Baldwin either before, at, or after the demo- cratic state convention. The gov ernors action at the last general ses- sion of the legislature will cost him votes in the convention and at the polls in case he wins the nomination. All of which will help swell the ma jority in the reelection of Frank Bos- worth Brandegee. Still. with this ap- parent advantage for MT. Brandegee, the Baldwin press agents are busy circulating reports that MT. Brande- gee would prefer Congressman B. F. Mahan as an opponent! He would not.
 It is very plain at this time that Frank Bosworth Brandegee, of. New London will not only have the solid vote of New London county, but every other county in the state, and that therefore he will be the unanimous choice of the republican convention for reelection to the United States senate, election to the United States senate, and there isn't much doubt as to the

The oldest newspaper in Paris, the
Journal des Debats, was one of the
cluster of newspapers which sprang
into being with the beginnings of pop

1t was founded by printer named
Baudoin and purported to be. as It's
name shows, a mere chronicle of po-
litical events. Owing to its pungent
criticisms of men and affairs 1t soon
became one of the most influential OF
the Paris journals.
In 1905 the paper was compelled by
Napoleon to change its name and be-
came the Journal de PEmpire 1t was
in the course of the correspondence
which took place between Napoleon
and the editor, Fievee, on the subject
of the threatened censorship that the

come famous, about the policy of the
newspaper, that it should publish no
news unfayorable to the government
until the truth was so well known that
publication was needless"
After Napoleon's retirement to Elba
the paper resumed its old title. 1t is
still edited and printed in the house
where it was first started, beside the
