Lying Doesn’t Pay.
The following dispatch recently ap-
peared in the New York Sun under a
New Haven date line: '
The war 15 having a peculiar effect
on Connecticut State politics. Till now
two candidates have been neck and
neck in the race for the gubernatorial
nomination on the Republican ticket,
Senator George E. Lounsbury of Ridge-
field, and John Addison Porter, Presi-
dent M cKinley’s private secretary.
Porter is practically out of the race,
owing to the war, as his services are
needed in Washington. He has given
up canvassing, and retired as an active
factor. Senator Lounsbury had a win-
ning lead till recently," when Gov.
Cook’s friends started a boom to renom-
inate him as “War Govnor.” The
boom has gained much strength-
There are no Democrats in the field
for renomination.
In commenting on the above the New
Haven Palladium very truthfully says:
. There seems to be a systematic plan
In certain interested quarters and on
the part of certain champions of in-
terested parties, to efiect the retire-
ment of Mr. Porter from the guberna-
tor1alfield,and the method of furthering
the scheme is to persistently and per-
t1nac10usly print such reports as the
above in the newspapers with the evi-
_ dent purpose of forcing the conclusion
on the part of the public that Mr. Por-
ter 13 out of it.

‘ That, pursuant to the power and authority thereby conferred, the Committee have, at various dates between the
date 'of the said reference and the date of this Report, attended at the office of the Company, and have been~ waited on
by the Treasurer, the Comptroller,the Auditor, and the Cashier, together with the respective assistants of such officers,
and have carefully gone over all the items contained in the said Statement, and have found the same to be correct. They _
have examined and counted every certificate of stock, bond and other obligation held by the Company, and compared
the prices at which the same are carried in said Statement with'the market quotations, and find the same not exceeding
such quotations—in fact, in many cases below them. They have examined and counted the bonds and mortgages on real
property held by the Company, and find the same-to be as stated. They have also verified the valuation of the Com-
pany’s holdings of real estate and have verified the deposits of money in the variOus banks and trust companies, and
have counted the cash on hand held by the Cashier. _ . -
And the Committee certify that all the books, papers, documents, and evidence of title of every description neces-
sary in such examination have been freely submitted- to the Committee by the said officers and their assistants, and that
the same are accurate, in good order, and well kept. .
And the Committee further certify that the investments of the Company are of a high order, and that the system
and methods adopted‘oy the Company in recording its transactions and caring for the assets are entitled to commendation.

In the matter of a physician’s or
minister’s mail, there is. certainly no
one plotting against her peace 0f
mind, yet'there are many instances of
heart confidences that are meant for no,
ears save the husband’s.
A sensible wife will appreciate this
and will not try to pry into that which
in no way concerns her, and there
need be no jealousy or bitter weeping
if she is only sensible enough to look at
it in the right light.
