Our own! government recently got possession of a number of secret telegrams sent by the official censor to the editors of Germany to inform them what news they were permitted to print and what comment they should make on that news, For example The publication and the discus- sion of resolutions adopted at a strike meeting in Leipsic and of a telegram sent to Tmperial chancellor are not permissihle. “Reports concerning disturbances in political warn- ing from the commander of the First Army Corps are not permissible. “News about unrest and excesses Prague may not be published. “The printing and the discussion the speeches in the Austrian Parli ment by the Deputics Stransky Kor- sovez and Romansak, are forbidden “It is not desired to discuss or even to mention the German imports from abroad, especially from [olland | “The publication must contain noth- | ing concerning the state of the cloth- | ing material business “The printing and article, “Ter aw for Oh are not in of the e discussion of Conditions ning Necessaries permissibig. th Wt Life” i friends at the Stanley | while , command | to | for lar, 8 WISE, SMITH & CO., - - Hartford In Making Change THRIET STAMPS Will Be Given instead ol cash to who desire them—Every Thrift Stamp you procure HELPS UNCLE SAM WIN THE WAR.
