PURITY OF THE BALLOT.
' (New Haven Register.)
‘ The reallyL disappointing feature of
‘ tho governors comments upon the ef
tort! 'whlcb are petlodiea‘lly made to
purify the ballot is the impression he
gives that he does not believe anv-
‘ thin: has been gained by past efforts
in. that direction. We do not propose
to hold him down to the strict con-
struction of hlswords. fur we believo
he recognizes in his heart that great
progress has beenmade. and that still
mater must be made. if we are (o rt»
tnin free institutions. The envelope.
alone has done more to entancipa'te
the laborers of Connecticut .from an
. influence which did whether intention-
ally or not. deprive them of their sense
" of ihtlepondetrcs than any other ai gle
cause. The Very party of which 9c is

he. The elimination of party election
. officials and the substitution of state
, election officials. is another lllBtlit'al
feature of required ballot reform. and
no is a law forbidding the circulation
of ballots before. the booths are. open
9 which is a source of both unwarrnut
. ed expense and sly corruption The
conclusion is in 'faot irresistible that
the governor is not deeply interested
.in this subject for which wo are pro
- ,fonndly sorry. for his support would be
a tower of strength. There is no morn
important issue before the countin-
than the. purity of the ballot.

Increase of Business and Use of De

The impetus given the life insurance
business in the state the past year. has
resulted in a large increase of work at
the insurance department at the State

department that the business had pruc.
tlcnlly doubled. Two additional clerks
have been put on, .I. D. Butler. or

of the building has been assigned by
the superintendent for the use of the
insurance department during the win
tor and will be occupied by \ctunry
ick W. Skiff for work in connection
with the actuarial division.
The changes made by Insurance
Commissioner Scofleld in the annual
statement blank have caused a deal of
increased work. These. changes are
the requiring of all companies to make
their returns on n cash-paid-for basis.
and the reporting of deferred declared
dividends as a liability.

The. decision of the Connecticut dev'

insurance commissioners of the recent
annual convention in Hartford. has;l
