DEMOCRATS READY
 FOR FIFTH WARD
Will Stage Rally in Skritulsky's
 Hall Tomorrow

One more invasion of the Fifth Ward will be made by the democrats tomorrow evening, when a rally will be staged in Skritulskys hall and from the program arranged, plenty of fun together with the usual amount of political chatter will no doubt be served up to the attendants at the af- fair. Vaudeville acts, boxing bouts and refreshments will be dispensed during the evening, and the good-fel- lowship of the democrats, it is hoped, will tend to win back the ward lost several years ago.
 G. M. Landers, E. ~O. Kilbourne, O. F. Kraus and possibly an out-of-town speaker will dispense the doctrine of democracy. From what can be gleaned from the so-called leaders of the party, the hopes for winning back the ward this year were never bright CT. Senator Landers always popular
 with the voters in the ward has bol- stered Up the ticket, and the repupll- cans do not regard their chances in l that section as over mediocre. While the republicans are smiling 1 about the return to their GOld of the 1 progressives, they evidently overlook | the fact that not all have done so. | The citv will be favored with one of 1 the followers of "Tempestous Teddy' | in 1912 Bainhridge Colby who will ] unrave1 some more of the workings at l the Chicago convention which select l ed c. E. Hughes as it's nominee for 1 the presidency at the Lyceum thcater | Thursday evening. MT. Colby is one
 of the most capable orators in the
 country Conditions in the west which
 have been reported to have lined up
 strongly for President Wilson will be l elucidated by ex-Congressman John J. 1 Ientz of Ohio. Eric Oberg, secretary
 of the American Society of Swedish
 Egineers and an editorial writer of a
 prominent technical journal will also l address the rally.

His machine landed "lthln the German lines. The day before Captain Boelke had shot down Ills fortieth aeroplane.
 A Paris newspaper on Oct, IS. re : ported that Boelke had been severely wounded by a shell from a French antl-alrcraft gun. Since then, how ever, his name has been mentioned in the German official statements
 Captain Boelke was the most snec- tacular figure among all the thou sands of aviators flying at the front in Europe. He seemed to bear a charmed life, and as recently as Sep- tember it was reported that he had escaped almost certain death five diff ferent times when his aeroplanes were practically shot from under him.
 In June it was reported that he had been killed in an air battle with Roger Ribiers, a French. aviator, over

MELBOURNE RAISES A VITAL ISSUE
Assails Connecticut System ol Representation in Legislature

\ E. O. Kilbourne, democratic candl- date for representative, has brought an issue to light which has been side- tracked in Connecticut ever since the famous constitutional convention or 1902, but neverth eless grows more important with each passing year. It it is the system of representation in the house of representatives which was adopted over 100 years ago when there were no large cities and prevails today when the cities like New Haven, Bridgeport, Waterbury, Hartford and New Britain have but the same representations as towns like Union, Ashford and Colebrook. The issue was fought out in 1902 ana the towns won on the same basis that they have ruled for a century, name ly having the power to legislate they refused to give it up or concede any, thing to the cities which in popula- tion outnumber them by tens of thousands.
 At 8 recent meeting of the French Naturalization club MT. Kilbourne went into details on this vital sub- ject and showed by the following figures the utter injustice of the pres ent system and the urgent need of reform in this direction. Below is a comparison of the small towns and the cities from the point of population and representation, which indicates clearly the fallacy of the existing sys- foT

1 the Verdun battlefield This report vas corrected a few days later by Vic- tor Chapman, the New York aviator who recently lost his life while flying with the Franco-American Flying corps
 Boell1e is shown in the pictures W1th German aeroplane brought down in Russia. He started in the Imperial Flying corps as an observer later becoming a pilot. His steady eye, sure nerves and courage soon sent him to the fighting detachment Of his service where his duties were to meet and fight off the French and English battleships and reconnois- sance machines. In this he was more successful than any other aviator. He always flew alone, managing his ma- chine and it's gun by himself
 Boell1e vas q native of Dessau, and took up aviation in peace times as {. sport. When he was called out by the war he entered the flying service. He had filled a very large place in Germany's war imagination, and his death has brought universal grief to all parts of the empire. The em peror and the military authorities had

The cities of New Britain and Wa terbury together had in 1910 popu- lation of 117,057, and each icity sends only two representatives,. The counties of Litchfeld and Middlesex have a combined population of 115,- 897 and send GA representatives. A most glaring inequality in numbers. On fair basis of representation New Britain and Waterbury would be en- titled to 60 more representatives. Comparing any of the other cities with the counties, similar disparity in numbers will appear.
 Forty-one towns having a popula- tion less than one hundred thousand each send 50 representatives.
