Immediately the Republican campaign artis arise and attempt to ridicule the plan. They decry it as a reversal of the historic dootrine of free trade. Democrats are accused of stealing Republican thunder. At last the followers Thomas Jefferson have seen the light, proclaim the wise men. There is this to be said in the premises. The Democratic party attempting to foster an infant indus- try is not trylng to kick over the traces. It does not propose to set up a high protection and thereby donate of in huge profits to trusts and other great | | 1y learn the value of reading. enterprises. It is not catering to those in need of no assistance along these lines. There is, and has been always, a great difference between a duty to protect a new industry and a high protection for enterprises that are old in business. The dyestuff industry has never been built up in this coun- try. It would probably receive no consideration from Republicans Democrats but for the present war abroad. It has been started out of necessity. When it gets started it will run into heavy competition from for- eign quarters after the war.

McLandburgh Wilson, in New York Sun, | council of putting | i | eipal Town Topics Considerable publicity has been glven to, and much interest taken in, the wrangle between the principal of our High school, reported as voicing the sentiments of the superintendent of schools, and the High Schaol Ath- letic Council during the last week. Indications are that the principal- superintendent forces are to make an attempt to oust the alumni council members in case they do not bow sub- missively to their demand. And, it is said, they will not. What will be the result on High school athletics? When the High schoaol athletic council was first organized to supervise athletics at the school sports were in a bad way. Teams did not suppart themselves ond no such records were made befora as | since. The council was composed of | taculty members, representing the school, the managers of football, bas tall and basketball, representing the student body, and three alumni mem- ters, representing the graduates, whose interest in the school has al- ways been great. Originally faculty members gave the benefit of | their advice and knowledge, the man- | agers conducted the real business and | the alumni members, with the faculty, | directed them wisely and saw to it | that their equipment and instruction | was proper. But their duty did not | c¢nd there. Tt was up to the alumni | members to keep alive interest among | themselves and it is safe ta say that | without .the support of the alumni body athletics at High school Svould not be self supporting. Discredit the alumni councilmen without cause and it is safe to predict failure for the school future. Such men powerful in public life as Senator George W..Klett and others are immensely interested in | the athletics at the school and Sena- tor Klett is himself president of an £lumni organization to assist the school in raising funds for an athletic | field and to encourage the boys | The whole trouble has arisen over | the election of Dr. Frank Zwick as| football coach. Principal Slade, os- tensibly at the request of Superinten- | dent Holmes, has informed the| council he is persona non grata. The alumni councilmen do not pro- pase to be dictated to and have said so. The faculty members have resigned. Now the alumni council members have asked Prin- Slade to glve them definite reasons for the coach’s discharge and if he fails to reply they are going to teke the matter directly to the school board next week. The trauble dates back ahout a vear. Dr. Zwick is a strenuous man, has dealt with strenuous men and re- ceived his athletic training from the strenuous college coaches. Fe he- came imbucd with their methods. It was charged that he was too strenuous in his language and the council re- quested .him to be more maderate. He did so and things seemed to be running along smoothly. Last fall he turned out a championship football team. During the basketball season the son af the superintendent of schools with another youth are said to have alleged that they heard the coach | speak too strongly to the captain. | Frofessor M. F. Davis, wha was be- side the coach at the very moment, de- clared to the council that he heard no such remarks. After this cpisode the | council learned that Superintendent Holmes was credited with the state- ment that he would not permit Dr. Zwick to remain as coach. Later Principal Slade asked that he be not re-engaged and is said to have finally | admitted that he was vaicing the su- perintendent’s view: Then he de-! manded the coach’s release. In thirteen years the athletic has directed a dozen cham- pionship football teams.” Tt has paid | all bills and today has a good balance. Never was the athletic rating of the | school better. Is there then any reason for the superintendent via the | principal to interfere? Coming back to the matter at issue however, a most | careful study of the constitution of the | athletic cauncil, adopted In January, 1912, fails to disclose anything that | officially gives the principal of the school or the superintendent of the school any final authority. The prin cipal is remarked in the constitution as being a member ex ofMeio.

In those days it was the custom to permit the Fourth of July celebration to begin at 4 a. m., on the Fourth, but promptly as the clock struck twelve on Sun- | day, July 3, 1898, the lid flew off with a bang. No attempt was made to sup- press the patriotic outburst of noise. Pandemonium reigned. Fully 10,000 people thronged central park. The din was terrific and everything that could make a noise was used, from flint lock muskets, revolvers and fire crackers to cannons. The city that celebrated the Fourth | in a manner that would have made John Adams sit in his grave and appiaud, for Adams the | father of the Fourth There were a few mostly for setting fire to buildings add to the excitement That was year long to be remembered.

George M. Landers was beginning ais firs. term as 1nayor, Although due notice had been given that all boisterousness would be suppressed, Young America did not relish the idea and were prepared to buck it. The night of July 3 was a damp, drizzily one. Chief Rawlings had detailed many plain clothes men to patrol the center and they did their work well. Promptly at mid- night Young America biazed forth and just as promptly did the many arms of the law reach forth and ar- rest the celehrators. On Main street alone there were ten arrests in five sninutes. Then a meciful rain fell, dampening the ardor of youth and materially assisting the police. Each succceding year the safe and sane idea has been getting a strong- er hold on the public until this year, when the safest and sanest ever w recorded. But the old days were glorious ones, though fraught with danger for it s then considered only a miid form of joke to throw a lighted fiie craclk- cr near a person's ear, to dlscharge a revolver in a similar way or to make pedestrian jump by the detonation of a dynamite cane at his feet. But those were the days and the younger gencration does not know what a real Foarth of Jul celebration is. e sowewhat strange that ew Rritain, always quick to adopt things of merit that have proven their worth elsewhere as well as not being at all backward in innovations of her own, should never have had, or never made any preparaticns for, an home week. Our much smaller sister city of Ansonia is the first Connecti- cut city this vear to make such pre- parations. Why not an old home week in New Britain? It would not neces- sarily be such a prchibitively expen- sive venture. Its returns would be commenstrate. Tt would boom the city, stimulate trade, stimulate civic pride and be a source of pleasure for {heusands. An old home week members of the community an op- portunity to welcome back to their home town members of their families, former friends and old acquaintances long since moved away and other vis- itors long identified with the town. Happy days of former years would be Giscussed, surprise wculd be expressed at the rapid zrowth of the city and thoe who had moved elsewnere vould be brought to realize what their old home tcwn :eally means to them. Some cities have had such elaborate and costly home week programs that it provea a failure but such would not be necessary lere.
