 Seeing that all were getting ready to depart, the reporter left the hall and descended to the street. He gained the information that the meeting was an open one, that is open to all white. gentle Protestants and that all he had to do 10 get into the next meeting was to show mem. bership in the Odd Fellows, Masons or Knights of Pythias and he would be admitted. The meeting was not, he was told, a gathering of members Of the klan. but simply an organiza- ton meeting to secure applican nts. He asked how many had joined and some answered Quite few, but therell be more the next time."

Convention Tonight.

Hartford. Sept. 11.-Rain fell on the delegates to the recent repubi- can state convention and 1t seemed quite likly that rain would fall upon dlegates of an opposite political faith as they go to the democratic state convention in Foot Guard hall tonight.
 The state committee has everything in readiness for tonight's opening. The temporary roll of delegates was prepared by Secretary A. Sidney Lynch and will so to the committee late this afternoon for approval.
 Uncertainty as to nominee for governor preslsted this afternoon al though there was more specialization of sentiment around Charles G, Nor ris, brother-in-law of President Emeritus Arthur T. Hadley of Yale university as candidate than here tofore because of prevailing impress sion that several of the other well known democrats whose names had Dttu tlEublOlltu ldu IOlu lllVll friends they would not stand for the office. Mr. Morris lives in New Ha- ven, has a summer home in New town where he serves on the school committee and was in the general assembly from Newtown in 1919.

There will be demand it is understood that the platform men ton the Kan and also declare for modification of the Nolstead act. Congressman O'Sullivan, the key noter, has labored diligently while at Washington in behalf of the light wines and beer and his address is ex- pected to deal with this issue which will encourage delegates to demand a mobilization plank in the resolu- tions.
 As Mayor Phillips of Stamford has said that he will not take second place this has opened up again the question of composition of the ticket At district meetings to the held to- night after the first session there may be indications of apportionment of state offices among the counties
