and that the defeat of Mir. McAdoo for the nomination for president will not affect their attitude to the dis advantage of the candidacy of Mir Cummings for vice president. Con- nectieut has never been the home of a person who was elected Co the office of vice president of the United States On one occasion the office of vice president was filled by Connecticut man, Lafayette :. Foster, but only in an ex-ofiieio capacity as president pro tenn of the senate, when Andrew Johnson succeeded to the presidency on the death of Abraham Lincoln Some years since the friends of the late Morgan c. Bulkeley made a strenuous effort for his nomination to the vice presidency at national convention. Their efforts were not successful but Governor Bulkeley re- ceived a vote that was gratifying to him and pleasing to his friends in this and other states. Connecticut's 8 remarkable industrial development and it's remarkable growth in popula- tion within the past quarter of a cen turv give it position of importance in the policies of both political parties which cannot be ignored. With the nomination of Mir. Coolidge of Massa- chusetts for president, by the Republi- can national convention, and which appears to be a foregone conclusion, it will be impossible for the Republi- can party to gratify the wish of Con- necticut for the vice presidency. It would be simply counting defeat for the national convention to select the candidates for both positions from New England. Connecticut continues to be hostile to the nomination of Mir. McAdoo even though the repre- sentative of the state on the Demo cratic national committee, Mir. Cum mings. favors it. It is of some inter est to speculate on what the delegates from this state to the convention in New York would do in the event. improbable though it Is, of McAdoo landing the nomination for the presi- dency. It is not at all unlikely that, to secure the vice presidency for this state, the votes from Connecticut would be included in the McAdoo column on the decisive ballot. This, indeed. would be hands across the continent from the Pacific to the Atlantic coast. From the standpoint of locality the situation would be im- pressive.

MORTLAKE'S
 LETTER
Hartford, February 19, 1924. Where the Governor stands

The opinion which Attorney Cen eral Frank E. Healy gave the other day to Governor Templeton defined the constitutional limitation of the gov ernors authority as 1t applied to local government in the state. The opinion was timely. It eorreets an erroneous opinion as to the extent of the power which the governor may exercise, and while it shows how limited these pow CTS are 1t points out way in which town or city may escape the eonse- quence of the failure of q local official Co function. That way is through the courts, and an aggrieved municipality may obtain redress by securing a man. damus. It is fitting that state, whose civilization is based on law, should look to the courts. where the facts and equities in case are the determining factors. and not to an au- thority that might be arbitrary. Local government in the one hundred and sixty-nine towns of the state Is cher ished principle and the invasion of it does not make for the happiness Of the communities which constitute the commonwealth. The more the towns are allowed to govern themselves, without interference from the chief executive or from any other source, the more contented the inhabitants of the towns will be. This fact is recog
 nized by the general assembly at most every session in the importance which is attached to an argument that has the local sentiment of the community behind it. How often the statement that the people of community have the right to their own form of local government is heard during q session. and it is a statement that Is never contradicted. If there Is anything which. in it's effect, is likely to destroy the principle of home rule in the gov ernment of local communities if Is the tendency to look to the state for money to help in the financing of local under takings It supplies a reason for the justification of the states participa- ton in phases of local affairs. It Is too much to expect that the state will make a contribution to a local pur= pose without having something to say how the money shall be spent. If the towns wish to be absolutely lndepen= dent of state interference they must meet the entire cost of their govern mental functions. That, of course, Is out of the question. Another effect Of the opinion of the attorney general Is to show how limited the authority of the chief executive is under the con- stitution. During the five months the legislature is in session, once n every two years, there are, at times, indica- tions that the fierce light which beats around q throne" has mitigated counterpart in the interest taken in the doings in the executive office in the capitol. But, unless the chief exeeu- tive Is in accord with the general as sembly the governor can exercise little influence in the enactment of laws. That was shown in 1907 when Rollin $. Woodruff was governor. and. again, at the last session.

Mir. Goodwin's Refusal

The refusal of Charles A. Goodwin to accept the Republican nomination i for mayor of Hartford was a keen ! disappointment to the Republican voters of the city and to many who have not formed the com mendable habit of voting the Re publican ticket. This IS the second time that Mir. Goodwin has refused to run for mayor. II is hat that he IS l lacking in loyalty to the Republican party or that he is unwilling to re- spond to the call of his fellow citizens to the public service ot the lrtssss.Sipal- ity. but he feels that he could not give to the duties of mayor the time and at tention which their satisfactory per formance requires without neglecting his obligations to private trusts which he assumed when he took charge of them. To him 1t k q matter of con science He could not take the oath of mayor unless he felt that he could give his entire time to the office. His standard of official responsibility is a high one, and he could not be tempted to deviate a hairs breadth from 1t. He appreciates the high honor of being the executive head of the capitol city of the state with which his family has been connected for nearly three hum dred years. It is of passing interest to note that Mir. Goodwin and Simeon E. Baldwin, who defeated him for gov ernor by a narrow plurality some years ago, are the descendants of Ozais Goodwin. who took up his resi- dence in Hartford in 1885 and who was the progenitor of the Hartford Goodwins. Mir. Goodwin first entered the public life of the state in 1909 when he was appointed executive sec retary by Governor Lilley, an office which he continued to fill during the incumbency of the governorship by Governor Weeks, the successor of Gov ernor Lilley. It is believed that but for the unfortunate misunderstanding over q ballot that was found on the floor of the platform he would have been elected governor in 1910. The in- cident created a feeling that eontin- ued during the campaign. MT. Good win was the victim of the feeling, though he was in no way responsible ! for the incident. His campaign was clean and absolutely unsullied. Though defeated he came out of the campaign with an enhanced reputation for high political honor and untarnished pro- N
 pity. He has thorough knowledge Of municipal affairs. Nothing but his re- fusal to accept nomination keeps him out of the mayorality for the coming two years.
 Mir. Cummings Chances
 No one seriously thinks that the democratic nomination for the presi- dency will come to Connecticut even with the brilliant Homer $. Cummings in a receptive mood. It is not so unlikely, however, that Conneen- cut man may be nominated Tor wee president by the Democratic conven- ton and that Mir. Cummings will be the choice. Mir Cummings favors the nomination of Mir. MeAdoo and he will continue in that attitude until Mir. MeAdoo eliminates himself or Is eliminated by the convention. It is understood that the MeAdoo delegates will favor the nomination of Mr. Cum mings for second place on the ticket,

current year approximately 15.4 per
cent on its S25,0OO,00O adjustment 5
per cent bonds, according to estimates
made in the financial. district. If this
estimate is realized it would not be
surprising if the directors at their

payment of 21a per cent on account
of accumulated interest on those bonds
in addition to the regular payment of

If the present rate of earnings is
maintained the company could make
