 The funeral of Edward R. Webster, son of William E. Webster and grand son of Hon. E. s. Roberts, was held from the Congregational church Tues day afternoon, the services being con- ducted by the pastor Rev. MT. Fuller and Rev. Owen from Waterbury, who drew lesson for all from the exemplary life lived by the deceased. A clean, upright life will send its influence out over other lives and may be the means of helping many to live better. He quoted some of those beautiful helpful verses of Whittier's Eternal Good ness," poem all can get so much from. Friends sent a profusion of beautiful flowers and one team was re- quired to carry them to the place of burial, which was in the East Canaan cemetery by the side of his mother The bearers were Charles Roberts, E. l.. Roberts, James Garfield and Irving Gaylord. Relatives and friends were present from Waterbury, Salisbury, South Canaan and other places. Thus passes out life just at the beginning of manhood. May the pure, clean life he lived be an inspiration and help to many other young men.

peated reports that the national COM
mittee has ceased to carry on its cam
paign in New York State, the sup
preston of the prediction poll is be-
ing accepted az particularly signifi-
cant. Heretofore it has been the prac-
tice of campaign committees to make
public such polls when they contained
figures that world buoy up the hopes
Of their workers. When the figures
were discouraging the reports were
suppressed, as in this case. Even
Democratic lieutenants, except those
directly interested in the compilation
Of this report, admit that its suppress
sion is an ominous sign.
The taking of this poll, which was
directed by Mr.. Mccormick himself.
was carried on with the cooperation of
state organizations, county organiza-
tons and even the precinct captains.
In every precinct of practically every
state in the Union voters were visited
and asked how they intended. to vote.
The precinct officers were so thorough.
said Mr.. Mccormick, that in many cases
the names of the voters were given,
that all statements might be verified.
In no case were estimates made, il
was said. According to those PAL tici-
pating in the poll, no precinct officials
were permitted to count a voter for
Wilson because of past performances or
present ndications-only his statement
was accepted.
When it was learned that the report
had been completed three days ago Mr..
Mccormick was asked to make it public.

DEMOCRATS HIDE
RESULT OF POLL
Fear Effect of Costly
Nation Wide
Count

Democratic leaders suddenly have
decided that their nationwide Presi-
Dental probably the most COM
plete and painstaking ever taken
must not become public The canvass
that has been made by thousands of
paid workers and at a great outlay Of
campaign cash is to be reserved for
private perusal.
Chairman Vance C. Mccormick Of
the Democratic National Committee
says that it must be withheld because
of the psychological effect upon Dem
ocratic workers" Other representa-
tives of the committee said that its
publication might-just might, it was
sdded-cast a chill over certain state
organizations.

Wilson Needs Half Million
to Insure His Reelection

Democratic campaign fund collectors
announce that half million dollars
more is needed to assure the reelection
of President Wilson. Moreover, they
have cast an ominous eye upon New
York State, which, according to their
calculations, ought to provide 100000
of that sum within the next week.
Although the state has dug up $780,
900 CT the total of 81 ,OO6,2sS already re-
ceived by the national committee,
Henry Morgenthau, chairman Of the
finance committee, does not think thar
it has given in proportion TO its ability.
"Thus far the returns from the En-
pire State have not come up to expee-
tations," he says. "Of the SoOO,OpV
more needed to complete the campaign
we expect outside states to contribute
100000. When New Workers realize
the need Of 100000 more to insure the
election of President Wilson feel cei-
tain they will see that the money Is
forthcoming.
Looking over the lists of contribu-
tors to the two parties campaign funds
I notice that Harry Payne Whitney,
Henry Goldman and several other
wealthy men have not contributed 10
our cause. Our subscriptions have
come from true Democrats and the IN
dependent voter. The newspapers, for
instance, have sent us more than
60,OO0."
Mr.. Morgenthau called attention to
the total of contributions by states,
which included the following figures;
illinois, $4,000; Pennsylvania. S4S,-
900; Ohio, $4,000; Texas, SAL 500;
Missouri, $4,000; Massachusetts, S2e,-
600: Minnesota, $4,000; North Caro-
lima. $4,000, and Virginia, $4,000;
All other states contributed less than
sos. 900. When asked if Henry Ford
had contributed to the campaign funo'
or would do so before Election Day,
Mr.. Morgenthau said that the Detroit
automobile manufacturer would not
contribute through his committee. =,
"He is carrying on work OF his own
he said. "Mr. Ford probably will spend
more than 100000 on advertising
alone. What is more, he will put his
name at the bottom of his advertise
ments and will not masquerade under
some other signature, as certain ke-
publican workers are doing. We are
depending on Mr.. Ford, as on thousands
of other Independent citizens who have
the welfare of the country at heart'

as there any reason why it could
not be thrown open if it's contents are
favorable?" was asked.
"Why, the figures are favorable
enough, but don't want it made public
because of the possible effect upon
workers in certain states" said the ma
tional chairman. "You see, it would be
extremely discouraging to those who
are right up on their toes, working as
hard as they can, to read a statement
in the newspapers in which we said that
they were going to lose their fight"
When Mr.. Mccormick was asked
about the reports that his committee
had given up the fight, so far as New
York State was concerned. he said that
there was no truth in them. He re-
fused to make any estimate as to how
the election would go in this state,
however, except to say that he was con-
WINGED Wilson would carry it.
