VOTERS SHOULD DO THEIR DUTY.

Having placed before the citizens a ticket which commands the utmost confidence, and which is bound to convince the voters irrespective of party that those who have been named thereon can be relied upon to give the city the kind of an adminis- tration that it wants, the republicans have faithfully performed one duty, but it is highly important that this ticket should receive the support that 1t deserves. That it will get it is probable but there should be no dis position to neglect the further duty of getting out the vote.
 Unfortunately it is the stay at homes who decide many elections, but with such an important matter before the citizens as the conduct of muni- cipal affairs and the demand for a businesslike administration there ought to be a keen realization of the responsibility which falls upon each and every individual.
 It doesn't represent good judgment to find fault with the way in which the affairs of city are conducted and then remain away from the polls when the opportunity to bring about a change is presented, any more than it does to neglect to vote, thereby leav- ing it to others to say who shall be en- trusted with the city government, and then set up howl because matters go wrong.
 A city election is one that every body should be interested in. Matters In which everyone is directly con- cerned are involved and when it comes to city government the best is none too good The repllblican ticket has been named with that end in view and it can and will be accomplished if the voters do their duty.
 With the republicans united, and proud to stand back of ticket that Is meritorious from top to bottom; which list of candidates is made up of substantial citizens and men of af- fairs, there can be no question of the result if those possessing the right of suffrage go to the polls and act for the best interests of the city.

tie cruiser, making six in all and two drendnoughts it will De recognized that such an addition is not only needed but that 1t is more nearly in accord with the recommendation of the naval board. Many in the house were favorable to the addition of the dreadnoughts but were beaten out by a narrow margin, although ft is to the credit of that body that the provision for submarines was mora than dou- bled and fifty instead of twenty have been authorized.
 Though Senator TilImau declares that he is not talking his stand be- cause of the recent clash in the North sea, since there is not enough datn available from which to draw definite lessons at this time. the part which the battle cruisers and the dread noughts were called upon to play can- not, however, fail to make an impress sion upon those who are considering the increase of naval strength, and Chairman Tillman of the senate naval committee ought to be able to con- vince his fellow senators that the problem of preparedness ought not to be left half solved.
 This country needs the battle crllls- CTS for the speed which is thus elb- tained in addition to the fighting a1il- ity of such ships, and 1t likewise has not been shown that we can get along without the dreadnoughts. The Brit ish had them and had they been closer so as to have been put into ac- tion before the German fleet turned the enemy might not have suffered SC lightly as it did.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Vote for Better City Government.

Vote for Better City Government. Mir. Editor: Every taxpayer should vote at this city election and they should vote for principle regardless of politics. It is time the taxpayers baked at being led by the nose by their favorite political party.
 The men who hold our city offices are placed there by the people and their salaries are paid by the people and they should remember that they are servants of the people and will be held accountable for the managements of our city and the taxpayers affairs. The present administration has been weighed and found wanting and ac- eording to popular opinion there should be a change and the taxpayer should vote for a better government and for men who will be efficient, energetic and-who will practice econ omy that Norwich may grow and prosper as it rightly deserves.

 MT, Editor: It has come to my knowledge that the rumor is being circulated, for an Obvious purpose, that am attorney for the Shore Line Elec- tric Railway company. Out of justice to lie other nominees on the republi- can ticket, as well as myself, wish to state unqua.lihedly that this state ment is absolutely untrue.
 Neither the firm of Brown & Perkins nor I myself represent this company, or any of it's affiliated companies, in any capacity whatsoever
 The fact is that at the present time we are pressing two claims against the trolley company, one on behalf of the people of North Stonington, objecting to the increase of fares under the copper zone system, and the other for the widow of deceased employe for relief under the compensation act.
 Very truly yours,
