Republicans Will Probably Send
 Them to State Convention -- TALK SENATORIAL OUTLOOK
Campaign Will Probably Be Opened at District Convention Here April 3rd-Spcnd Night in Stalled Trolley Car-PIainyillc Son to Preach.

While they declare tho matter of selecting delegates 10 the state con- vcntion will be left entirely with the voters who will meet in caucus on March 30th, republican leaders expect that one of the towns representatives at the session will he either Edward T, Carter or Edwin H. Hills. proNit.- ing thcy arc dCsirotS of attending. Tn republican circles here it has been the custom for years to give preference to tho representative and tho chairman of the town commit tee when delegates to the state con vcntion arc being chosen This year the party is to have two Sessions the most important of which has not as yet been called. At the meeting to be held in Hartford next month Con- necticuts representatives to the na- tional convention will be chosen. There is not a great deal of interest in Plainvillc in the session, and contest at the caucus is not antici- patcd.
 It is probable that Mr. Hills will l'c named to attend one of the conven- tionS and MT. Carter the other. Plain- vile is entitled to two representa- tives, and it is not believed that there will be any rush for the honor.
 At the district convention. which is to be held here on April 3, for the selection of delegate e-at-large, it is expected that the campaign for the senatorial nomination will be Ia unchc Senator Pierson's chances of getting the place again are not thought to be very bright. Tn fact it is said that he will not be in the field Plainville will make a strong bid for yhc nominaNon this year. Local republicans believe that the town is entitled to tho nomina tio". The town has given great help to the party for a number of years, but. nevertheless has been overlooked in the distribution of faVors. f.
 Should A. Fl. CondCll want the place T. is likely that he will have the sup port of the party in PlainVille. F.. T. Carter is anxious to serve in uppht house at the next session, but it IS not expected that he will seek the nomination unless Mir. Condell keeps out of the race.
 Some time ago the belief was gen craI that PlainTillc would get the nomination without much of a con- test. Subsequent developments. how ever. have changed the ompIcNion
  nor has it that Elijah Rogers of Southington has his chapeauX in the circle and will mako q vigorous fight for the support of the convention
 As representatives of all towns in the district will be here at the con- vcntion on April 3. the candidates will have a chance to get some cnliGhtCn- mcnt on conditions, particularly as far as they concern the senatorial outlook. Consequently some interest ing developments arc looked for in connection With the gathering.
