The police of New Britain are tak- ing all possible precautions at thig time to keep on the lookout thieves and other criminals who have madae their appearance. But. the police are not able to do everything. Chiet Rawlings i1 especially aux- fous that the people take the neces- sary steps to co-operate with his men. Already people are responding. By so doing they protect not only them- selves but their neighbors. When the would-be criminals find out that the way ia being made’ as difficult as possible for them, they are more apt to turn their attention elsewhere. Therefora it ia wisa and most im- portant to assist the polica in miyk- ing New Britain a place of “hard pickings” for .thieves.

That the City Meeting Board will have no power to do anything but authorize the issuance of the bonds and the appropriations made by the Common Council is seen from a read- ing of the amendments to the char- ter approved by the Lesgislature. No power is given t{o change ose appropriations, proposed altera- gs not having been advertised. power is given to reject those poriations, no such proposal been advertised. pituation would be the same, e, at an adjourned meeting, jmeeting would be but a pn of tonight's session. ho did not attend the pub- Es held here, or the hear- d in Hartford may be sur- by the statement. the future there will be for those wishing to criticize spur of the moment to pres- the City Meeting Borad any ons in the plans of the board Inance and taxation which primar- manages the city finances and mbers of which devote valuable e to the consideration of its af- affairs. Th wording of the charter amend- ment gives ample time to those ob- Jecting to the recommendations of that board to make their objections known by advertisement and by fil- ing them in the office of the city clerk. The meeting of the representatives of the people of the city, the City Meeting Board, will not be a scene of misunderstandings and disorder caused by a purposely delayed offer- ing of a new plan which feasible and wise on its which might, be but which cannot considered coming, as such plans have no may seem face, or indeed, be wise wisely some- times been presented in the past, at the last moment when no one wouid have the chance to study it before voting upon it. This provision, due licity to be given matters that will come before the City Meeting Board, will make the sessions of that body ones where questions bated intelligently by who have been informed, or who have had a chance to inform themselves, on the things to be discussed. Fairness between the board finance and taxation, and those requiring pub- may be de- people of op- delegates, representing all the peo- ple, with the Common Council and the board, will be the judges. The people, as represented by 144 ‘dele- gates to the City Meeting Board, will have th great majority and by far the loudest voice in the decisions to be made. The pertinent points of the amend- ments to the city charter, which show that the City Meeting Board to- night may do nothing but approve the bonds, are: Sec. 18 (After pro- viding" for the filing with the city clerk and the advertising of any pro- posed chasges in the estimates sub- mitted by the common council to the City Meeting Board,) Says: “Said City Meeting Board may change or modify any estimate of income and expenditure and the appropria- tion therefore as made and recom- mended by the commén council, may strike out entirely any appro- priation, if such change or modifica- tios or petition to strike out has been presented as heretoforc provided, to the city clerk at least five days before said city meeting and duly advertised by said city clerk, but it (the City Meeting Board, Ed.) can- not otherwise change said report of the common council and cannot act upon any appropriation for any ob- Ject or matter not included in said common council report.” The report of the board of finance and taxation was accepted ap- proved and the appropriations made by the common council June 15. No objecting petitions have been filed or advertised as required. The only vote possible, if a vote on the bonds is put, will be one for their authori- zation. or and CHIEF JUSTICE TAFT. While the man who holds the highest office in the world—that of the Presidency of the United States —is benefitted by the posse: the “judicial temperament,” any man in any position is benefitted by it, that-which is considered the sec- ond highest office—the Chief Justice- ship—calls for its possession exercise in a far more gree. The President should be man of action, originality and determined per- severance in the prosecution of his plans for the and wel- fare of the people, conservative when safety may be gained by conscrva- tism only, progressive up to the limit of sane, wise progression, ever mindful of the old evils to rected, never led into untried paths of progress until the conviction their om and safety has mind capable of seeing thought, the fact that demand sion of as and intense de- betterment be cor- of wis come from a far- deep, and never asleep to new things absolutely new viewpoints. William Howard Taft, just ap- pointed to the Chief Justiceship, the judicial temperament has been al- ways the characteristic that has kept him from becoming the great poli- will. His habit In tician—statesman if you devotion to precedent and of mind which both sides of a his has led him to its inclination to leave his mind open to counsel, kept him ing leader of the to all of hear stor; in minute detail, and hi most has the dash- Roosevelt type, before the the conviction, always active, which might have placed him at the top of the list of statesmen of the from becoming able carry in him| en- thusiasm country.

It is believed, despite the fact that former President Taft has been out of the law for a considerable that he will make a fine record as Chief Justice. The kecener the lawyer the more he appreciates that a few months will put him “out- of-date” regard to precedent. Every day a new light is thrown on Every day decisions are rendered, some of them in the lower courts, which illuminate mat- ters before somewhat in doubt. It is in a measure this ability of the wise judge to recognize his ig- norance that makes him the wise judge he is. It is noteworthy that Chief Justice Taft is the only man who has held the two positions which we consider the highest in the world. It is with pride that we of this state note the appointment was credited, not to Ohio, but to Con- in matters legal. necticut.
