ator Klett predicts a republican vic tickets.
 When Senator Klett was elected to the senate two years ago he was given an appointment on the judiciary committee, the most important of all. He did good work on this com
 mittee and the chances are that if he is reelected he will be given the chairmanship of the judiciary com mittee this term.
 During the last session of the legis- lature Senator Klett was Instruments in saving New Britain many thou sands of dollars by his successful campaign against the pipe line tax bill which, had it passed. would have
 made the city pay thousands of dol
 lars in taxes for the right to have their water pipe lines run through farm lands. He worked hard on the
 compensation bill too, and it was he who secured the reduction of from fourteen to ten days that person must be pacitated before cofnpen- sation begins. He also put through the bill which makes the time that an injured party gets medical assis- tance unlimited, where before it was thirty days.
 Senator Klett's loan shark bill has
 worked out admirably and many pros cautions throughout the state have re-
 suited. This bill is one that has saved
 the people lots of money and prevent
 ed them from being duped and 'bled' by the loan shark operators. His for
 tune telling law has also worked out
 we'll and has prevented this class of
 people from feecing. the public in
 Connecticut.

 The capture of Curlu especially in view of the progress made south of the SOmme, represents a great step forward, for the village bars the road leading to the only points where the river can be passed. The French troops have now before them on the road to Peronne, their goal, a series of hummocks each of which is crowned by a village, ending in a narrow plateau.
 The British on their part have made steady progress toward Bapaume, which is an important center on ac- count of intersection there of the main highways which apparently are their objective

Germans Partially Successful.

London, July 3, 9:55 a. m.-As the result of one week of most costly on- slaughts on the Russian lines be- tween the Stokhod and the Styr rivers the Austro- o-German forces have ad- vanced their battle front at the most five miles eastward towards the Styr and that only in some sectors, says a Reuter- dispatch from Petrograd.
 Military authorities, the corre- spondent adds, are confident that the Russians are firmly holding the en- emy on this front, pending the devel- opment of General Letchitzky's sweep through Bukowina, meeting the Ger man reinforcem ents entering the field.
 Meanwhile the Russians have pro- gressed fifteen miles southwestward of Kolomea and the Austrians there are hard pressed to cover their re- treat to the Carpathian mountains.
