ATIVE. (Special to The Courant.) MIDDLETOWN, Wednesday, Oct. 9. The twenty-fourth Connecticut will hold its annual reunion in this city tomorrow and in view of the fact that it is the fiftieth anniversary of their enlistment, it is expected that the attendance will be larger than usual. M.
S. Dunn, the veteran letter carrier, of this city, -is the first vicepresident of the organization, and has received a large number of responses from members of the -regiment, who are planning to attend the reunion. Secretary L. Post of Kansas City is expected to arrive in town sometime today in order to attend the affair. Another guest whom the members of the regiment will be glad to see is General S.

The name of Judge Bacon was placed before the convention by John F. O'Connell of this city and the choice was made unanimous. After adjournment Judge Bacon entertained the delegates at luncheon at the Hotel Middletown. Mayor John L. Fisk of this city acted as chairman of the convention, and Dr.
John H. Moun- tain as clerk. Progressives To Nominate. Chairman C. P.
Bonfoey of the progressive town committee has issued a call for a caucus to place in nomination candidates for representatives from this town, to be held at his store in Court street tomorrow evening at 8:45 o'clock. Previous to this the electors the Thirty-third Senatorial District will meet and nominate a candidate for senator. Candidate For Representative. Lovell Hall, a well known member of the local bar, has announced that he will be a candidate for the republican nomination for representative at the caucus to be held tonight. He has issued a card stating his attitude regarding the matter, and telling what he will do if nominated elected.
The caucus will be held in the town hall and is scheduled to be called to order at 8 o'clock. Politicians Discuss Vote. Local politicians, resting yesterday after Monday's strenuous election, had plenty. of leisure to discuss the various phases of the vote, and as a result many interesting facts were disclosed. The old line republicans were greatly encouraged at the showing made, taking it an indicative of success at the polls In November.
Particularly pleased with the result were the members of the new republican town committee, this being the first election conducted under the auspices of Chairman Frank A. Coles. On the other hand the independent democrats were also well satisfied at the turn of affairs, despite the fact that they did not accomplish all they set out to do. The defeat of State Central Committeeman Humphrey S. O'Connor for the democratic registrarship was their chief aim.
and the victory of Thomas C. Lawton was gratifying to them, It was practically conceded early in the day would be almost impossible to defeat Mayor John L. Fisk for auditor, or Chairman Thomas F. Griffin of the democratic town committee for constable, consequently the victory of these two was not unexpected. Frank W.
Fenner, who opposed Mr. Fisk on the third ticket, received many compliments on his fine showing, as he led every one on his ticket with the exception of Lawton, the candidate for registrar. Constable Thomas F. Griffin managed to extract a few crumbs of comfort from the wreckage yesterday, because of the fact that he led his colleagues on the vote on the regular democratic ticket, although these same men had a wide margin over him on the total vote, because of their indorsem*nt by the independent ticket. One of the things that Registrar Lawton's friends were pointing to was the fact that he carried all four districts DOING THEIR DUTY Scores of Courant Readers are ing the Duty of the Kidneys.

in the town, even the north end section going for him by five votes. The regular republican registrar of voters, Henry Hanson, received many compliments on the large complimentary vote which he received, despite the hot contest in the democratic ranks, which attracted so many republicans. Mr. Hanson has occupied this post for more than ten years now, and is an exceedingly active worker republican ranks, as well as beinsthe competent official. Another man who was wearing the "smile that won't come off" was Charles J.
Bright, elected constable by highest vote received by any of the candidates for the various offices for which there was competition. Mr. Bright's total was 1,280, his nearest competitor being First Selectman-elect Howard S. Peck, who had 1,255 votes. It seemed to be the general impression about the streets yesterday that the landslide which swept the republicans into office was due to the independent democratic ticket, although some of the very optimistic followers of the 0.
claimed that the vietory would have been theirs anyway. As a result of the republican victory, it is expected that a successor will be chosen to Judge D. Donohoe, -the present town attorney, as well as a new clerk for the board. Yacht Club Smoker. The members of the Middletown Yacht Club enjoyed a smoker at its club rooms last evening after the regmonthly business of the organization.

The other expenses of the town have been kept within the income, notwithstanding the fact that the schools have cost town 459.03 more than the previous year and electric lights $326.17 more.
This could not have been done, however, but for the fact that nearly $3,000 was received from the state this year. This is known as the average attendance grant and substantially the same amount should be received for one or two years more. Credit for this is due to Representative Frederick A. Scott, who again succeeded in securing a change in the law, which enabled town of Plymouth to come within the list of towns aided by the state. WAREHOUSE POINT.

Hudson has announced that he is candidate for the nomination for representative on the republican ticket and as there seems to be no other candidate in the field at present he will probably be nominated.

I CONGRESSMEN WILL TALK AT MANCHESTER SCHOONMAKER TO BE PRINCIPAL SPEAKER TO.
MORROW NIGHT. Austin Cheney Will Probably Preside Over Board of Selectmen. WILLARD B. ROGERS MENTIONED AS NEW CLERK. (Special to The Courant) MANCHESTER, Wednesday, Oct.
9, Congressman Francis Schoonmaker of Pennsylvania will be the principal speaker at a republican rally to be held at 8 o'clock tomorrow night in the Wells street armory in South Manchester, The rally will be the biggest local political event of the season and will furnish a treat to the citizens of the town.

Prominent local republicans will also take part in the exercises of the evening. Citizens Look Over Situation.
Now that the election is over the citizens of the town are beginning to look over the men who have been elected selectmen for next year and are trying to pick out the ones, who, it is thought, will control the situation. the office of chairman there is little doubt but what Austin Cheney will be elected when the board organizes. He is another student of civic affairs as was his brother, Horace who has been chairman of the board ever since the new form of town. government went into effect and who proved himself one of the most able of the town officials. It is though that Willard B.
Rogers, who has the distinction of being one of the youngest selectmen ever elected in this town, being 24 years old, will be chosen clerk. He is conversant with town affairs, having been schooled by the training that his newspaper work has given him. On all sides are heard genuine expressions of regret that Horace B. Cheney, chairman of the old board of selectmen, is retiring from the prominent part that he has taken in town affairs since he was elected. When it 1s figured out just how many improvements have been brought about with a proportionally small outlay of money, it can be easily seen that Mr.
Cheney deserves the highest praise, not only for the way in which matters were handled, but for his great foresight. There is not an improvement which has been made since that time that will not stand as a monument to Mr. Cheney and to the old board that cooperated with him in a manner that bespoke for him their appreciation of his endeavors to work at all times for the best interests of the town.

J. O'Melia, democrat, and H. A. Middleton, republican, for first selectman, the latter winning by a good majority. Mr.
Middleton, while holding the office for the last few years, has done very satisfactory work. The only criticism against his dealings was the fact that the east side of the town, Warehouse Point, had been partially treated.
