It is announced today that they are to hold a mass meeting at the Seventy- first Rsxfmentvarmcry in New York on Sunday, April 14, when former Congressman Reilly will be the guest of honor, and it is said that he is to be made the recipient of a present which will amount to '$25,000. Mr. Relilly took an interest in the carriers and clerks when he took his seat In congress four years ago, and he never sllowed it to diminish while he re- mained a member of that body, his service finally ending on the fourth of the present month. There have been but few men who made their way into the front rank of states- men in such a short time as Thomas L. Reilly. He is a good speaker, and what is better still, he knows what to say and how to' say it. He re- celved an excellent training in the newspaper business, in wnich he was also a leader, and the information thus obtained gave him a fund to draw upon when he entered on a congres- sional career. New Britain always been proud of him because it was here he was born, here where he obtained his education, and when he visits New Britain the people arec glad to see and hear him. The létter carriers and postal clerks have been interested in legislative matters; Mr. Reilly saw the Jjustice of their claims and espoused their the first because he thought that they should be encour- aged, and he gave the best that was f2 him for them. They apparently rtalize this and propose to show their appreciation of the servy bir of congress who was close to the prople and those issues which are cal- cllated to benefit so many. It is ex- picted that there will be at least 10,- 0l carriers and clerks at the New Yirk meeting.

Fighting the Jitne (Bridgeport Telegram.) So sensational has been the success of the jitney bus, or five-cent taxicab in many of the cities where it has appeared that it has made most ser- ious inroads upon the patronage and receipts of the street car companies, and consequently, efforts are being made to squelch the jitheys in the courts. It is easy to predict, however, that such attempts are doomed to failure from the start, and the powers behind them must be pitied for their lack of imagination. It is a poor purblind soft of an attempt to meet a new situation. The streets belong to the public. They do not belong to any street rail- way, and nobody can be kept from using them. There are certain re- strictions for public safety which can be exercised through the policing power of the commonwealth, but these restrictions will not be written by pri- vate interests—at least, not in any de. cent community. The jitney bus idea is a new one, and like all new conditions, it brings a host of problems in its wake. As an example of the sensational suc- cess of the five-cent automobile bus, the case of San Francisco might be cited. Four weeks after the first jitney appeared on the streets, San Francisco had over 1,600 in operation, and the receipts of the street car lines fell off §9.500 in the month. Los An- geles had 1,000 jitneys in operation by the middle of February. Such a host of public vehicles naturally brought traffic problems in its wake. But the way to solve a trafiic problem does not lie in abolishing the traffic. and most cities are meeting the new con- ditions by attempting to divert the traffic properly, and by employing reg- ulations to assure that the drivers of public vehicles are competent. Rea- sonable regulation for public safety is required. But regulation for the pur- pose of suppressing competition is quite .another matter. In one case, that of Cleveland, O., the street railways arc planning (o meet the newly developed jitney com- petition in a really intelligent manner, 1. e., by opening competing lines giv. ing better service at a lower fare. The rallroads are welcome to do this if they want to. The public can only bene- fit by a little healthy competition; the whole trouble with the street rail- way situation is rooted in the fact that there has been no competition. Thank God for Pr (Christian Work.) There are men who, had they been in the president’s chair during these trying times, would have the United States ere this at war with Mexico, Ja- pan and Germany all at once. Things have been steadily getting worse. Every day things are happening which bear tly on our national honor. The ition of the war zone by Germany is a direct violation of all international law, and the warning to the United States to keep out of it comes very close to anfinsult. Ing- land’s answer to Germany likewise throws international law to the winds and cuts our commerce to the quick. We think every serious-minded man realizes that these are very perilous days and that international relations were never in such a sensitive state since the war of 181 One false step would mean irreparable calamity, perhaps a4 war with several uropean power If ever a nation had anything for which to thank God it is that Mr. Wil- son is in the president’s office. With wis calm, unruffled power he has steered the United States through these daily perils and no sudden incident has made him lose his head. More trying times may at any mo- ment. Suppose a German submarine should sink one of our ships? Can one not see what might happen with our people, whose nerves are now high-strung and overwrought? If ever there was a time when men who love their country should sup- port the president and pray for him and hold up his hands it is in this hour when he being tested as few men have ever been in walking among pitfalls innumerable. And yet, at just this time, when he needs all help and when he is proving so wise, so great a leader, and when he is al- most beseeching the people to uphold him, large numbers of men, some he- cause they see this is a chance, in time of crisis, to gain their own ends, and because they have lost their and becomne hysterical and pan- are doing thing in their power to embs the president and make his almost superhuman task in- finitely harder and more diflicult. We do not refer to those German-Amer- icans who are tryving to influence him, nor to those of British descent who complain of neutrality. They have little weight and connot greatly em- barrass him. We refer to that larger number who, in the ve face of his requests and protes on talk- ing war, and preparation for war, and of arming hugely on land and sea, and insist on to our danger esident Wilson, come cve pointing of from #miled.
