On the mornir in question, howev this man v absent from his route and another person was in his place. The change was a very disagrecable one for all who took that trolley. To begin with, the substitute conductor acted more like a brute than a man. The first offense of this snobbish collector of fares happened when a lady asked him to adjust one of the shades on the car. She had at- tempted the task and had failed. He promptly informed her that if she was unable to succeed he surely could do no better. And he made no attempt to remedy conditions. Then he started in on a tirade of abuse that lasted from Maple Hill to Hartford. There was scarcely a lady on the car who missed his wild perorations. Had there been a few young men on board am sure this surly conductor would the Center at Durin events the shoppers Hartford leaves the mentioned sons: First course of of women car and into all him calling. the which, would be a very just reward ¥for He seems to have missed his Instead of gracing the run- ditch all in | ning board of a street car this man should be dancing around the inner confines of a prize-ring.

The New Haven railroad has placed emphasis on the rule of ¢ set up for its employes. The Connecticut company might follow suit.

If the great mass of progressive party members in Connecticut who scorn the idea of returning abjectly to the party which they left for con- scientious reasons, are in earnest in their protestations of independence they have before them a great oppor- tunity if they care to seize it. The opportunity is ripe for progres- sive-democratic fusion in the state campaign. The progressives who never polled more than 30,000 votes in the high tide of their party, can have no hope of carrying the state in Novem- ber, even though they should name a state ticket. Many of them are calling for a state ticket, however, as a means of ridding Conneocticut of the domina- tion of the Roraback machine. The presence of a third ticket in the field would, of course, assist to that | { sons his lack of political skill and ex- end, but if a third ticket should suc- ceed in its purpose it would morely have the effect of putting into office the candidates of the democratic party | in whose selection and in the buflding of whose platform the progressivo party has no voice. If the progressive v is satisfied with destroying the power of the Roraback machine for the time belng that result will, of course, be satisfactory, but there Is no reason why the progressive party should not become a constructive as well as a destructive force. The progressives of Connecticut and the democrats of Connecticut are not far apart on state issues. The demo- crats are not likely to declare for anything in their platform which the progressives do not fully there are few things which the po- gressives are insistent upon as reform measures which the democratic plat- form will not carry. The democratic party in making its nominations for office will beyond any question endeavor to select men who will command the respect and confi- | dence of all Connecticut citizens—such men as will easily be representing the antithesls of back machine domination. Here are two political parties in Connecticut who typify protest against the kind of government that lessens respect for Connecticut in other states. By pursuing independent courses these two parties unquestionably can drive Roraback out of power for two vears at least. By combining they could make that retirement permanent. Tt is not necessary that the progressive party should lose its separate identity. Tt can maintain itself as a political en- tity and by working with the demo- cratic party select the sort of candi- dates and the kind of a platform on Rora- which both can agree and which will | command the respect of all voters who object to a Rorabackized common- wealth. Getting About What He Deserves Too! (Collier's Weekly.) Nestling in a newspaper corner next to the Panama-hat ads we find this stray sunbeam of a heart throb: The first face the baby sees in this world is full of kindness, and the last to bend over him when he is old and dying 1s full of pitying tenderness. It is tho faces he_secs In between that cause him all his trouble. This ila a dear sweet thought, ‘but it strikes us that the ‘“in between' faces are looking at him and very likely reflecting back to him just about what they see. Quite often it is not either kindness or tenderness, taking it by and large, this is a ¢ Just world. The U. S. Army Hat. (New York Herald.) The why and wherefore campaign hat, also known service hat, with which the United States army, Boy Scouts and other military organizations are equipped is demanded by David Gardiner, in a letter published in the Herald recent- Mr. Gardiner holds that the hat he very antithesis af he dubs it. In so far as is concerned, Mr. Gardiner reason to make complaint, | but army officers said yesterday, as its name implies, the service hat is not for parade use, but for hard ser- vice, ana it has stood the test of many years' campalgning in the army. The hat under many forms has ex- isted since the time of the Mexican war and is related to the combreros of Mexico and of the plains. It has Leen kept in service for the Teason | that, after trying all forms of head are: as heen shown conclusive that a felt hat with stiff brim gives the maximum of protection from the sun, wind and rain, with a minimum of weight. Although adopted in recent years by the British colonial troops, the can n hat is of purely American Tt came into use in the Brit- ish service during the Boer war, when the colonial traops—Canadians and Australians—took it over and when General Sir Baden Powell developed the Boy Scouts in England a short time later, it hecame their official headgear. Hence its present nse by the Boy Scouts all over the world. The unmilitary—it it be military means simply smartness—appearance of campaign hats prevented its adop- tion in Furopean armies, although it | was tried out in the French service | twenty years ago. It has therefore | become a characteristic of the Ameri- | can soldier in the fleld. The slouch hatted, blue-shirted troopers of the Tndian wars became the slouch hatted, khaki-clad troopers of the Spanish- American war, and later when the present olive drab uniforms were jssued, the slouch hat was retained. Fvery of uniform or equip irmy authorized only | deliberation and trial by boards of officers so that the retention of the campaign hat s full guarantee of its value. of the as the smartness, its aspect has some chat ment the is after mature | been endorse and | ; | and the admiral is to be congratulated recognized as | | Francisco, | south than from Duluth to New Or- for it The present form, with the peaked crown came into effect in 1912, when a new issue of hats, or heavier grade felt was adopted.

Long befare this the Mexi- | cans and plainsmen had found out the | same thing, so in 1912, despite the rather unmilitary form, the present | “Montana peak’” form of hat was| issued in the army.

Rear Admiral Peary has withdrawn his candidacy for the United States senate in Maine. He gives as his rea- | perience and his unwillingness to op- | pose personal friends. ! The first of these reasons is cer- tainly enough. Admiral Peary has skill in abundance for the sort of tasks | to which he has devoted himself, and his experience—in exploration—has unique. But his knowledge of | politics and public affairs hardly war- | rants an ambition on his part to be- | come a senator. The admiral explains that he per- mitted the use of his name because he thought he might be able to help the cause of preparedness along. But there are others who can do that as well as he. There wa the Peary candidacy from the start, on his decision to withdraw. He would probably have found the realin of politics as chilly at the Great White Wilderness of the North and his fame which is now secure, could not have been augmented by a congressional ca- reer. A New Oontinent. (Kansas City Star.) The news that the Australians are building two thousand miles of rail- road to open up the interior of their country doesn’t even interest the av- erage American. ““Well, what of it?” he is apt to say. Nine in every ten Americans know almost nothing about Australin and care less. But the Australians hope to make us take more interest in them as thelr export trade develops. It is for the development of this trade as well as for the general opening up »f the country that thev are building two thousand miles of railway through a desert. Few of us realize what a mighty continent Australia is, that it is bigger than the United States; that it is far- ther from east to west across the con- tinent than from New York to San and farther from north to leans, “But,” you say, after looking at a map, “it is only settled around the coasts; across the whole interfor i printed “The Great Victoria Desert Yes, and there was a time, within memory of men not yet very old, when across the interior of America, where Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado and Ne- braska are now, were printed the words, “The Great American Desert.” The railroads proved the American desert to be no desert at all, but a pro- ductive country. Big Docks Needed. (Troy Times.) Big ships need big docks space for berthage. This truth was borne in on the minds of New York officials some years ago when gigan- tlc steamers were put into service be- tween their port and the old world. Some of their vessels are nearly a thousand feet in length, and the thou- sand-foot dock became a necessity. In one or two cases provision was mado by temporarily lengthening some of the piers. Now the city has completed a slip which will afford permanent accommodations for ships of a thou- sand feet, and doubtless others will be provided in due time. The demands on the facilities of the port are ever- increasing, and the metropolts must be equal to the emergency if it would retain commercial and maritime su- premacy. ana hiz Pointed Paragraphs.

They bring out some striking facts concerning the makeup of our national body po- litio. The society’'s bulletin on the subject is as follows: “It is a fact not generally recog- nized that the foreign population of the United States together with sons and daughters of parents one or both of whom are or were of foreign birth constitutes a third of the entire pop- ulation of the country. “In a number of states the people of foreign birth or foreign or mixed parentage exceed in numbers those of native birth and parentage. This condition obtains in Massachusetts, where the foreign element by birth or parentage is twice as great as the element of unmixed native lineage. That state had, in 1910, 1,103,000 peo- nism, | ple both of whose parents were horn within the United States, as com- pared with 21,000 who were either born abroad themselves, or had one or both parents born abroad. “The same condition prevails in Rhode Island. That state has a pop- 821 of native ancestry 372,671 of foreign birth or | lineage. | “In Connecticut we find a popula- tion of natlve ancestry aggregating | 895,000, and of foreign birth or an- | cestry aggregating 7083,000. “In New York there is a popula- tion of native ancestry reaching a to- tal of 3,230.000. Against this there is a population of foreign birth or foreign or mixed ancestry amounting to 5,715,000. “The balance in favor of the pop- ulation of foreign birth or foreign | ancestry, in whole or in part, in New | Jersey is 425,000, the population of native ancestry amounting to 1,010,- 000 as against 1,435,000 in the case of the foreign element. “Illinois also falls in the list of states where the population of full | native stock is smaller than that of | forelgn birth or foreign or partly for- elgn ancestry. Its population of na- to tive lineage amounts 2,600,000, Against this there is population wholly or partly foreign by birth and ancestry of 2,925,000, a difference of 826,000, “Mlchigan also falls in this claas, with 1,560,000 wholly or partly of for- eign birth and ancestry as compared with 1,224,000 of pure native lineage. “Minnesota has nearly three times as many people born abroad, or with one or both parents of foreign birth, as she has of sons and daughters of native stock. Her population of for- eigners and their children totals 1, 488,000 as compared with 575.000 for the native element. “Montana has 199,000 people of foreign birth and foreign or mixed ancestry, as against 162,000 of native ancestry. Wyoming gets into the same column by about the same pro- portion. The state of Washington has 390,000 more of the foreign than of the native element, while Califor nia practically breaks even “Taking the statistics of the mdle population twenty-one of age and upward for the entire country, if is found that only 48.9 per cent. of them are of straight, white native ah- cestry. The negro element adds 9.1 per cent. to this, and the remainder, 41.3 per cent., is represented by the men of foreign birth or the sons of foreign or mixed parentage “Taking the different. find some striking statistics. In ?he proportion of foreign birth forefkn or mixed ancestr to native, among the men of twenty-one years and up- ward, North Dakota takes first rank among the states with 79.9 per cent, belonging to the former class. Minne- sota ranks next with 78 per cent., and Wisconsin third with 77.7 per cent. “Approximately two-thirds of the men in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and Utah are sons or grandsons of foreign lands In New Jersey, Illinois, Michigan, South Dakota and Montana the pro- portion ranges from 61 per cent. to 57 per cent., while in Nebraska, Neva- da, Washington and California it fs slightly more than half. “In Utah it falls to # in Wyoming to 43 Missourt to 29.7 per cent., to 30.8 per cent. and in 40.4 per cent.” years tates, we or per cent,, cent.,, W in Kansas Oregon te I | Book of Princeton verse, edited by Al- | fred Noyes. . | Chemistry of familiar things, by S.
