We have no sympathy with pro- etors of saloons and stores that k the laws on Sunday, but it is to deplored that state policemen use ol pigeons to procure their evi- e. If they want the evidence they ld procure it themselves. This ky way of planting stool pigeons, after they are in town a few s, have them spy and spot ever then can, is anything but a imendable manner to procure evi- ce. Judges should demand some- better before they convict.—Wa~ ry Democrat. is is the first real hard knock that been given the state police in a time. In the early days of that nization criticism was as common the knocking of street depart- in every city today. It has ays seemed as If the greater part | the work done by the state poMce is ‘for which the city force is paid jd the only argument offered for it the latter is so well known that impossible for its members to Bccess' to places where it is sus- rected that the law is being violated. The state police has been doing some important work along lines other than liquor matters and for that reason it appears to have ingratiated itself into public confidence and practically disappeared. Is it not a reasonable Muestion to ask, however, at this time, Waterbury liquor men do not close up on Sunday as do the New Britain dealers and then they can snap their fingers at the state police, stool pigeons and all kinds of sneaky business. That is the best course to pursue and it is also the safest. FOG AT SEA. The sinking of the steamship “Em- press of Ireland” has started a dis- cussion as to the best course to pur- sue in times of fog at sea and it 1s quite natural that there should be some varied statements. It is being suggested that as soon as the fog set- tles over a ship that the boats should be manned and preparation made to leave the ship. It does not require a great deal of sagacity to see that such action would produce almost a panic on shipboard when in reality there would be no need for it. If it should be made a rule of the sea that in times of fog ships be reduced to the slowest possible rate of speed, to keep the horns blowing and a sharp look- out ahead there would not be any danger of a serious collision. It is impossible to see any great distance ahead in a fog but the blowing of the horns would serve to answer as a warning, the answering blasts woula give the location and there would be no likelihood of a collision. It often happens that men in charge of a ship pay no attention to a fog and when one comes they run their ship at the same rate of speed, col- lide with another and the result is similar to that which followed the crash in the St. Lawrence river yes- terday morning. It is said that the captain of a ship which made a re- cord run across the Atlantic a few years ago never stopped for fogs or anything else during the trip. There was a fog but the sea was smooth and taking advantage of the smooth water he had his firemen pile on the coal and the steamer was kept at top speed and when it came into New York every bit of craft within seeing distance saluted. The ship had made a record run and that is all that was thought of. Had another vessel been encountered it would have been cut in twain. There was a loud demand made for safety at sea when an investigation was made of the sinking of the Ti- tanic which was due to pure careless- | ness and what has been the result? Here is another case almost as dis- tressing and judging from the infor- mation obtainable it would seem as if the collier in question were going at a good rate of speed when it hit the Empress when it should have been traveling slowly and almost a thous- ané people went to their death. There will probably be another in- quiry now, it will be told that great care was being exercised and that will be the end of it until there is an- other disaster like it. MUST HAVE SHOWER BATHS. The board of health of Harrison, N. J.,, has come to the conclusion that the bathtub is a menace to health because of its use by so many persons, and it has declared in favor of the shower bath. It has been discovered in more than one community that bathtubs have been used as receptables for coal, thus avoiding the unpleasant neces- sity of going to the landing on a cold morning with the hod. But the'Har- rison#board of health views the whole matter from the standpoint of clean- liness and sanitation though it does not seem to have ggme' far enough. The proper way is to have each per- son take a wash in the tub and then take a shower. That is the new way and the Harrison officials are not only new but they wish to have all others sprinkled. The New Jersey: folks will, of course, throw out their bathtubs now or turn them into other uses than for bathing and install shower baths. Is it any harm to ask if there are any plumbers or shower bath dealers on the board? There must be something else besides mosquitoes in New Jer- sev, It is interesting to note that grav- el is coming into its own for roaa making purposes. Years ago men of experience in different parts of the state built gravel roads as experi- ments and as illustrations of what the material, properly handled, was capable of. Those roads are excellent today. Then came the era of crushed stone and macadam, which relegated gravel to the dump. Now crushed stone has been pProven unsatisfactory and not at all the durable thing it was supposed to be. This condition has compelled quite a number of towns to turn again to the gravel banks, Bristol among them. The re- sult is better roads for less money.— Bristol Press. criticism has | why the | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, MAY 30, “| TOWN 7A4LK. HE baseball fan is now beginning to take an interest in the na- tional game, the home team is playing better than it did and he has been awak- ened from his lethar- gy. It is amusing to hear those who can recall some of the old days, the old teams and talk about some of the scenes and incidents of former con- tests on the diamond. A party of men were gathered near Keeney's theater the other night and as usual were dis- cussing baseball when D. J. Donahue produced a score card of the game played between the Chicagos and IHartfords at Rentschler's on Septem- ber 20, 1883, with the late H. C. Guss- man as umpire. The reason for the game was that the late “Tom™ Burns was then with the Chicagos, his New Rritain friends wanted to see him play in such big company, and Thomas J. Lynch and the late C. H. Faulkner arranged for the game. The score card was a rather small affalr, scarce- 1y large enough for the names of the two teams on one side, and the fact was announced in large letters on the other side that “Dan’ Krause, who was supposed at one time to have been the best looking man in the town, was still engaged in the clothing business in Hanna's block and that he was the leader in styles and a crusher in prices. The Chicago team was made up of Dalrymple, 1f.: Gore, cf.; Kelly, c.; Ansoy, 1b, Williamson, 3b.; Burns, s.; Pfeffer, 2b.; Sunday, rf., and Gold- smith, p. The Hartford team was composed of Jones, 3b.: Cramer, If. Murphy, c.; Hatfield, 1b.; Pierce, 2b.; Dolan, ss.; O'Neil, p.; Griswold, rf., and Creeden, cf. The latter team had been transferred from New York to Hartford and had been known as the Metropolitans. The game was Wwit- nessed by about 2,000 people. When Mr. Burns stepped to the plate for the first time the game was stopped and the late Ambrose Beatty, then mayor of the city, presented him with a diamond pin. The answer was a three bagger which pleased the mayor and set the stands wild with applause. Burns played a splendid game that day and when the contest was over the score stood 10 to 3 in Chicago’s favor. O'Neil, who pitched for Hart- ford afterwards went to St. Louis, played in the field and for a long time led the American league in batting. Sunday, who played in the fleld for Chicago that day is now the famous evangelist and is driving the devil cut of the various communities in which he finds him intrenched. No one at that time, however, thought he would ever be engaged in his present work. He was a great ball player and one of the speediest base runners in the country. There are many around town who can talk as interestingly of that contest today as they did when the game came to an end and the crowd rushed on the diamond to shake hands with “Tom’ Burns. A lull has come in politics and even Mayor Quigley is unable to stir up enough enthusiasm to create -an argument. The novelty of the early days of his administration has worn off and there is no longer the in- terest in what he says and what he does that there was when he took up the reins of government. It 18 announced that he is quietly investi- gating the conditions at the various sources of the city’s water supply and that when he has collected all his data he will send a special mes- sage to the common council. Just now all the reservoirs are full and up to a few days ago they were over- flowing, a condition which did not exist when the mayor was an al- derman in the council and his rg¢- marks were far from being compli- mentary to the members of the board of water commissioners. He has gone the right way about acquiring information about the department, however, and his special message ought to be different in tone from what he used to say when he was campaigning. The board of char- ities matter which aroused a great deal of interest in the city has been followed by the regular routine and it is popularly supposed that the last has been heard of who got the rooster or where the superintendent was when the bird disappeared. The board of public safety has several ap- pointments to make to the police force and when the work is complet- ed there may be something new to discuss. There are a number of ap- plications for the various places to be filled; there will naturally be some disappointment and perhaps a little criticism. There usually is, but the members of the board know the men from whom they pick the for- tunate ones and if they cannot make the right kind of selection then it seems as if no one can. A visit to the police station and the fire sta- tion, both being located in the same building, will convince any one that either department should have new quarters. It would be better that the police should be provided with a new home and the present Com- mercial street structure left to the firemen. They need it in order to house their apparatus properly and give suitable accommodations to the men who are virtually obliged to make their home there. There was talk at one time of locating the ‘police in the rear of the City Hall, but it is a matter of general commendation that the change was not made. It has always seemed that if there is one place more than another where the police should not be located it is the rear of City Hall. But it is apparent that a place must soon be found for the department and that it will fall to the lot of the Quigley administration to provide it. It has really been in the works for the past few years and the overcrowding on Commercial street has almost reached that point where it will soon be nec- essary for some one to move. Good reports have come from the conference on the extensitn of the trolley line in the north end of the city this week. Mayor Quigley gave the representatives of the company a sen- sible talk on the conditions in New Britain, pointed out the scarcity of tenements and the high price of land unless the Jocation is too far removed from the factory districts. The mayor's position is that if the trolley liney were extended in certain directions that a building lot could be purchased for a few hundred dollars, and the poorer class of people, those who are | now cramped up in small tenements, would be encouraged to build homes of their own and in this way the | tenement question would be solved. This is a sound argument and does not permit of successful contradic- | tion. As far as the proposed north | end trolley line is concerned the company agreed to build it, provided that those locally interested would | guarantee the money and this they have done, but the. company has shown an inclination to back out of the agreement. It is seldom that men have obtained money for a larze corporation to build a line, the com- pany usually furnishing its own money and doing its own work. In| this case it was agreed that the com- pany had no funds for such an ex- | tension and consequently could not | comply with the request of the New | Britain people. Tt was at this junc- ture that those interested said they would raise the funds and loan them to the company, which was agreed to, and it looks like a case of wmall potatoes for the company to back out | now. As to whether such a line would pay at the beginning does not enter into the question at all because in all classes of business there are certain lines of goods which do not bring in any profit, in fact they are sometimes sold at a loss, but they must be kept on hand because there | is a demand for them and what fis | lost there is made up on something else. This matter has been gone over in detail with the trolley company and both sides thoroughly understind it. An extension of the trolley lines would be a great benefit to New Brit- ain because there must be more houses provided. This cannot be | very well done until land can be pur- chased at a fair price and in order to do this it will be necessary to go out- side and when that is done there must be means for transporting peo- ple to and from their work and it is there the trolley becomes a necessity. | The problem is not one to be dis- missed with a little talk. It will be necessary for the people or their rep- resentatives to keep up the agitation, to keep after the company and in time they will be successful. The growth and comfort of the people de- pends on this movement and too much time cannot be given to it. Mayor Quigley has started out on an important mission and if he succseds in it he will have brought about a great benefit to the city, Jewish Farmers in Connecticut. (New London Day.) The first Jews to take up agricul- ture in Connecticut did so in New London county. One of them was a New London man. The very first ven: ture upon the soil made by persons of the Hebrew faith and blood was in 1891, when three families who haa been assisted to employment in a Norwich woolen mill saved up money enough to buy abandoned farms near the Rose. The next year Haymin Pankin, employed in a mill in this city, bought a farm in Chesterfield. These purchases were all made with the assistance of the Baron de Hirsch fund. In the same year assisted Jews established the Colchester colony. Everybody in this vicinity knows how those colonies of agriculturalists have grown and how the individual mem- bers of them fave prospered. Al over the state}unre and more Jews are getting onfo the land and are maintaining themselves there. Some of them are becoming well-to-do. It would be ridiculous to claim that the Jewish farmers of Connecticut are among the best farmers in the state. It would be unreasonable to expect any such thing. The point is that they are going upon the lana and staying there and that tHey are not crying for help. They are mak- ing a beginning. and it is traditional of the race that once it gained a foot- hold it has never fallen back until forced to by the persecutions, confls- cations and outrages with which its history for hundreds of years has been marked, but which it will never ex- perience in this land. , The impulseithat sends the Jew to the soil is-precisely the same that sends the American, the Irishman, the German or the Pole to the soil. It is the instinct to establish himselt as his own man on ihs own little kingdom, the inborn human desire for a real home. It is the best and most honorable impulse that ani- mates man in any age or any couh- try. It is the true love of freedom and of the land. If at the beginning of a racial ag- ricultural life, made after hundreds of years of debarment from owner- ship of the soil, the Jewish farmers do not always exhibit the same fa- cility for farm operation and farm labor that is exhibited by the de- scendants of true peasant peoples; if in some instances the Jew display what appears by contrast to his neighbors as a Mck of adaptability and “farm sense,” there is nothing sur- prising or discouraging about it. If at once he is not able to rid himselt of the commercial and industrial hab- its of many centuri. and sometimes appears to his hereditary agricultural neighbor to be inefficient, it should be remembered that he is starting away back where his neighbor's ancestors started many, many generations ago, and that his task Is not only to make a farm but to make himselt | and his inherited characteristics all | over again in a new mold. Judged in this light, which is the only fair light, the Jewish farmers in Connecticut have performed and are performing wonders. It is extremely doubtful If any other race of people on earth, laboring under the same handicaps of racial experience and deprivation of opportunity.. could have done as well. It is quite certain none could have done batter. The Jews as a whole are far from being our best farmers. But they are getting to be better farmers, and by and by they are going to bring to bear on the science of agriculture the same progressive, daring, enterprising | ularit Rest for the senatorial . “the state taxes this | to 1914, Il’l!P”lgDn(‘P that has made their race a power in the financial and business world.

Democratic Governors. | (Chicago Letter to Philadelphia Pub- lic political Ledger.) The landed democrats of 1912 number of explosion an extraordinary in the office of governor, and there was a natural fear on the part of republicans, largely growing out of their own conceit, that these niew men would not be able to admin- ister affairs satisfactorily. It must be admitted, however ,that so far as the west is concerned the newcomers have done well. Nebraska is a notable example. Gov. J. H. Morehead has given out he does not care to run agaln, n uprising in the state against decision, and the party leaders have asked that he again file as a candidate. Ohio is another state. Cox, democ James M. t, has not the same pop- y in his state as Morehead has in Nebraska, but the party is gradu- coming to the conclusion that it would be a serious mistake to make a change in a candidate whose admin- istration has been good. In Illinois there is no complaint against Gov. Dunne, other than would ordinarily be expected from political cpponents or disappointed applicants for office, but Dunne is in till Jan- uary, 1917, In this state it is the United States senatorship that commands the ora- ry and manipulation of the poli- ticians. Roger C. Sullivan’s cam- paign has become so effective that his opponents are now combining against him, even though those opponents are not altogether loving in their rela- tions with one another. Mayor Har- rison, Gov. Dunne and Senator J. Hamilton Lewis have formed an al- liance to oppose this ambitious Irish- man. It is the plan to find:some- body down state that is worthy of Sullivan's steel. Such a man Kent E. Keller of Ava is believed to be. A Political Shipwreck. (Ansonia Sentinel.) If Bryan F. Mahan is truly quoted in his declaration that he is not a candidate for senator and that there is no lure for him in the nomination for governor what becomes of the dual alliance, which was so impres- sively launched months ago in whicn Senator George M. Landers was. the interested and considerably benefited party of the second part, Mayor Ma- han being cast for the star role and the high pleasure of removing the scalp of the present govermor. Has some concealed rock ripped a. plate out of the hull of the political dread- naught or have Messrs. Mahan and Landers from the conning tower sighted a storm in the offing and put back to port. A goodly number of democrats, who have been’ perching on the fence in the senatorial con- test, would like to know just where they are at and it is to be presumed that they will be enlightened in due season. The chances are that the members of the alliance learned the ordnance carried by Governor Baldwin was of the fourteen inch variety and that It outclassed any caliber in their pos- session. Outsiders have never been sanguine as to the formidable na- ture of the Mahan-Landers combina- tion and it is possible that this pes- simistic unbelief that had its effect upon the members of the junta. Be that as it may it seems to be fairly well settled now that the con- toga will be between Senator Brandegee and Gov- ernor Baldwin with a possible pro- gressive cdndidate in the field in the person of Dr. Flavel S. Luther, backed by % lot of enthusiasm but mighty few votes, There is nothing in that prospect dhat will cause any conser- nation among the friends of the re- publican candidate, who hag the great advantage over his rivals %f having already demonstrated his value as a legislator of hlgh efficiency and tried experle’e The State Tax.

Meriden taxpayers will have to pay vear on a sum about $1,000,000 larger than last year, We thought at first when this jump in our list had been made by the state board of equalization this Wweek that Meriden was being dis- criminated against specifically or that there had been some mistake made.

Woman Sentenced to Death. (New York Times.) the electric chair was Doom to pronounced yesterday on a woman by Justice Davis of the supreme and although the trial as it went on attracted little of public attention in Bronx county, where it held, there is no doubt that before the sentence is executed there will be a campaign of vehement protest. In- deed, there need not be much more fear than hope that Madelina Ferola will die at the hands of the law, for modern sensibilities, which are not a little disturbed by the judicial kill- ing of men, even wWhen they are par- tieularly cold-blooded murderers, can with difficulty endure to think of the dreadful act when the victim of it Is a woman. Logically, of course, there is no excuse for drawing the sex line the punishment of murderers, and | less now then ever—if there can be less than none, and there can, in a way, as every mathematician knows. For the women from whom we hear most are at present vehemently de- manding the abolition of discrimina- court, was in | tions both for and against them. Some to be sure, and among them the most strenuous, will insist that the sen- tence in this and like cases is un- just because imposed under man- made law and after a trial in which only men took part, but it is only when a woman's life is involved that they seriously present that argument, and they do not carry consistency to the length of insisting on the re- lease of women from all the laws there are until new ones can be made after a new fashion. Those of us who recognize the emp= tiress of the purely sentimental plea for the murderess as a woman, vet have an underlying desire that some colorable pretext may be found for not breaking the state's practically settled habit of Jetting off with im- prisonment the woman who kills in no matter what circumstances. The ghastly task of putting a woman to death in the electric chair involves details of preparation which, though trivial from what would be called the “sensible” point of view, really do make this form of execution more abhorrent than the gallows or the block. They do it by adding the element of personal indignity. The strictly correct position, Madelina Ferola from the chair to attack capital punishment £ either men or women. They cann advocate a legal discrimination bee tween the sexes in the matter of pulie ishing murder. g o ik L3 now- 1 € | ever, for those to take who would save
