One of the first charter changes that will be | considered will probably be the divid- | ing of the present safety board into a | fire and police commission, instead of | naving both departments under the | one supervision. Boosters for the | idea claim, and seemingly wisely, that ! one board of three men cannot de- | vote sufficient time to the city sratis | to take the proper supervision of both | branches of public service. With a separate board for each, one commis- sion would have nothing to do but devise plans for increasing the cffi- ciency of its own department. It has been said that a man cannot serve { two masters and inversely it might be said a small commission cannot satis- govern two big departments. ago this matter was brought | up ana passed the common council. | When it went to the legislature for approval as a charter change Repre- sentative’ . C. Goodwin opposed it on the ground:thas it was political scheme of Mdyor Quigley whose aim was to create more appointive posi- tions to strengthen himself. The is- sue was lost. Some new plan of taxation will also come in for consideration with the charter change With the idea of having the assessors devote their en- tire time will come the suggestion to do away with the two taxing dis- tricts, This two district scheme wa cvolved a number of vears ago to in- those living on the outside to vote for town and city consolidation, the argument being that with consoli- dation and two taxing districts the tax | rate in the suburbs would be less. A | charter change will be proposed doing with the two districts and pro- for property assessment on ac- tual valuation. There seems to be no iogical reason why there should be two taxing districts. People living in the sccond district have just as many city advantages as those in the first with the exception of police protec- tion, and in the first district there are seetions no better off. The second d trict people have schools, fire protec- tion, city water, gas, electricity, side- walks and roads the same as those in the first. And where there are no sewers they can be had by the usual method of assessment as in the first district. If the two districts should be abolished it would be eminently more fair to all. The same tax rate on value would mean that a man own- ing a fifty foot lot on Grove Hill would pay a tax on that lot commen- surate with its real value while a man owning the same sized lot on Osgood Hill, for instance, would pay on what that is worth. Thus ever property owner would be paying his fair proportion of taxes with favor shown towards none. While it not probable that it will ever come hefore the charter re- vision committee, some democrats have been advocating & plan to elect councilmen and aldermen at larse rather than from wards. They base their argument on the ground that democrats living in the first, second, third and fourth wards are practically disenfranchised as regards electing their city representatives to the council. These wards are so strong ly republican that their little demo- cratic vote has no bearing on the out- come. By electing at large.they could their interest and stand a bet- chance of success. Whiie practical, their scheme is not altogether feasible, however, for it vorks out that a man elected from a certain district will look after the in- terests of his own distriet much more cnergetically than those of anothe man elected at large would have much to take up his mind could not as well confine his attentions to any individual section. Then, too, a ward man has morc personal inter: est in his own ward, whereas he is not particularly interested about comething in the other end the Two years i duce away viding is pool ter and of o % With the agitation concerning the ke nuisance in this city should be tered another complaint: that of the factory whistle nuisance. This does t refer to the whistles announc- ing the time to begin and cease daily labors, but to the shrill signal whistle sin used most offensively, and almost en- | o iz by the Vulcan Iron Works. This concern, located on John strect and in the heart of a residential dis- trict, is the only one in the city that uses 2 whistle to call various foremen and employes to the main office. When foreman is wanted at the office the factory whistle, and it is a most shrill, recching one, is tooted a certain wmber of times. Fach man has a rumber which is sounded when he is wanted. The whistle is sufficiently to be heard a half mile away residents within a wide needlessly annoyed by it It almost unceasingly from T o’clock in the morning until 6 o’cloclk at night and when people are criti- cally ill in the neighborhood and ah- colute quiet is nceded, it's annoying blasts become a real menace. | action should be taken to compel this company to adopt another ng their minions into the Iy is loud and 1 radious OWs rstem of ofiice, . Sewage disposal in New Britain | continues to be a salient factor in the | city administration. Mayor Quigley, | after consulting with various engi- neers of prominence, has been advised to try the sludge system, but before the city to install such a tem it has been suggested that a few thousand dollars be spent on an experimental station with this system. The system itself is simple and it said to have worked out admirably at Milwaukee where it was installed at a ‘ of only $65,000. Next month |58 mayor expects to visit that west- | ern city ana will himself inspect the plant. Briefly, however, the system is this: Into huge concrete tanks, properly structed, the sewage is pumped or allowed to flow. Then, through porus quartz sand plates in the bottom Sys- W o sludge co { ercises. | those who a l;\ml died. steady, powerful flow of air is forced. i In time this reduces the refuse to clear | water on top and a sand like sub- stance as a precipitate. By using this sediment as a catalyzing agent, that is, by using it with the sewage in con- nection with the air flow, the new ge refuse is itself reduced to water and activated-sludge in a few hours. The beauty of this stem is that the resulting solid sludge has absolutely no offensive odor and, when dried, can be sold for fer- tilizer at about $9 per ton, accord- ing to the claims of Professor Bart- ow of the University of Illinois, who discovered this system. - But was New Britain only confront- | with the question of how to dis- | of domestic sewage alone, | ed pose this | might solve the problem economically, | and effectively. It is the emical wastes from the factories, mixed with the domestic that makes the problem and undoubtedly n the present sewer beds even | less effective.

The question now arises, | would the sludge system successfully | reduce a mixture of both chemical and domestic sewage. Casual opinion would be in the negative but to experiment is the only way to learn. Should no satisfactory solution be discovered, it may eventually be necessary to com- pel the factories to neutralize all | their waste before turning it into the | city sewers, if possible. But it would be very expensive and so would it be expensive to have the city construct new sewers for the factories so such waste could be taken to a central | point and be ncutralized before being | turned in with the other. But a solu- tion mpst be found and the quicker the better. waste, difficult 1kes e o Once again New Britain, in com- mon with the rest of the country, is about to do honor to its soldier dead on Memorial Day. The programs of the various devine, patriotic and Memorial Day services have been printed and it now remains for the citizen to show his reverence for the old soldier by adopting Com- mander Streeter's request that on Tuesday everyone wear a little sprig of green with a little how of the red white and blue to show that memory of the gallant boys of ’61 is in truth “evergreen.” Steadily the grim reaper is diminishing the ranks of the gray-haired old warriors of a half century ago until in a few years | hence there must he but one wearer of the little bronze button, tottering | and feeble who of all that vast horde of fifty vears ago, will have survived and on Memorial Day falter to the graves of his departed comrades and place there a flower of loving mem- ory; only to return to await the final bugle blast that will muster him into the service of the Great Commander. Then only memory of the boys in blue and the boys in gray will be left.

Wilson And Hughes, (New York World). There would be one mighty public advantage in the nomination of tice Hughes as the Republican can- didate for president against Mr. Wil- son. During the 1916 presidential campaign, at least, the American peo- ple would have to think with their brains and not with their lungs. It has been twenty years since the country did any straightforward litical thinking. For sixteen years under the Bryan leaderehip the Demo- cratic party was given ov to word: and emotion. - The republican, party has had a corresponding period of Roosevelt brag and bluff and bluster. Roosevelt and Bryan are talkers, not thinkers. Neither of them ever un- derstood any public issue that he ad- Neither of them ever did or ever could appeal to the sober sense and sober judgment of the American people. That is something Mr, Wilson can do. It is something Justice Huszhg can do. It is something the Amer people need, and need impera- A democracy that is not cap- 8 close reasoning about its public affairs is in a bad way, and the loose, haphazard political opinions of the average American are a much greater menace to the country than is any foreign Power. Mr. Wilson has done a great deal to re-establish the habit thinkihg; but the job finished until both a leadership that i telligent. The test of the republican party is soon coming. Where the rank and file has had a chance to express Itself it has shown a decided preference for mind over noise. But the final proof must be found at Chicago. Roosevelt's Boy Scouts are now making their last drive against the Hughes candidacy. They have a cam- paign fund that Mark Hanna would have contemplated with respect, if not with envy. They are rounding up all the former office holders who held place under Roosevelt and are not likely to get back into place will never he parties are under both sane and in- demonstration is to be made of the Roosevelt popularity in the hope that if the republican nomination ioes go to Justice Hughes it will go in a way that makes acceptance impossible. Then will come Roosevelt’s opportun- ity to do business with the Old Guavd. Perhaps the Boy Scouts will suc- ceed. Without principles or issues or a recognized leader, the republican party is deficient in imagination and infirm of purpose. class men are in control of its affajrs and the interests back of it are so sordid that they can see nothing be- yond the almighty dollar. 'To them Hughes is an unsafe proposition, little more trustworthy that Wilson. The man does his own thinking and gives his own orders, and that is supposed to be bad for the organization. Tt is also supposed to be bad for ness. There is nothing that busines is so suspicious of as brains in gov ernment, which explains the Wall Street attitude toward both Wilson and Hughes. Yet we shall continue to think that what the United States requires most of all is not less brains but more brains in its political leadership, and that is why the World, which intends to support President Wilson, would welcome the nomination of Justice Hughes by the republican convention. Asleep at the Wheel. A Peril of the Night in Automobiling (Chicago Journal.) FFrequently when there is an acci- dent, where the car runs off the road hits an obstruction or is upset, the driver or other occupant of the car or the reporter says that “the steering gar gave way.” Yet it is safe to venture that it is not the real reason for the accident. What often to sleep. In a report of an accident last fall the driver frankly id he went to sleep and, the next thing he knew he was under the car, which was thrown against an abutment. The soporific effect of driving an automo- bile at night for several hours is really responsible for more accldents than defective construction. The con- stant vibration of the steering whel, the continuous noise of the machine and the drone of the wind have the same effect does the buzz of an electric fan most folk.
