RUNNERS OF THE STATE—NOT HARTFORD. It is wiih considerable interest that we read in the upright and honorable Hartford Courant every morning, in- cluding Sundays, of the horrible con- dition of the cities of the state in re- gards to rum runners. New Britain is, of course, the worst of the of- fenders, but the Courant's activities in “exposing” the ring are by no means confined to New Britain. No indeed, many other places are men- tioned. The wonder of it is that the #esteemed journal with so much solici- tude for the welfare of its readers in other towas has not seen fit to cast the beam from its eyes in regamds to its own city. Can it be that the Courant staff. so eficient elsewhere cannot find evidence of liquor in the Capital City? Every few days we find, in an obscure place in its col- umns, details of a raid or of an ar- rest for drunkenness. Of course, with the rest of the state so rotten, Hartford cannot help but suffer from the nearness of such towns as New Britain. One or two rotten apples in a barrel may corrupt the whole barrel in time. By the time that every rotten city has been cleaned up by the active little investigators of the leader of the virtuous Hartford alone will shine in our midst as the only uncorrupt locality we suppose. The morning paper has a connip- tion over everything that it may find off color in any city, its own smug- ness keeps it from recognizing its own fauits. Possibly some of the political pets of the clique which the Courant represents are ‘‘getting theirs” in Hartfo Possibly some of the newspaper boys think too “Thuch of a drink to investigate their places of ccnviviality. We cannot say why it is, we certainly wish we could, but it is certain that a drink is ob- tainable in Hartford, j as much as in Wallingford, New Britain or New Haven. Why not give us the dope old t:mer? You know so much about us, you must know something about yourself. R ARMISTICE DAY. We have seen already how soon war, and those who participated in it, gave their lives for the cause they believed in, is forgot. . After a war is finished and the ef- P fects of it are felt throughout the | country, the word “war” is on all lips. But is is spoken of more often as it has affected business and ecopsfnic imatters, than otherwise. s How often men shed tears over their Joss of ducats the war and reorganiza- " fion has brought; how often they be- " wail the fate that made men fight; ' how, they say, for the sake of busi- L ness alone, there shculd be no more of ' war—something should be done about it. “Those people at Washington, who are supposed to have brains should . prevent a recurrence of that Thing which. turns everything upside down and makes a man ignorant of ‘where | he stands’.” : Occasionally a few men get together . in organizations and talk over ways means to gain again the position n life they would have had were it ¥ not for the war, to plan things they should do, as soldiers. Many of them ‘have lost all the money they had, and ! came back to their old work only to find that ancther has gone on pro- gressing from the place he himselt occupied, to a position much higher. The ex-service man is having a hard Job. Sometimes his service ‘looked entirely. But now, long before the day set to ccmmemorate the day of signing of the armistice, the President of the United States shows that he has not forgotten. Few men with hearts that are humane have forgotten. The president asks that every man and woman, on the anniversary of Armistice Day, Novermer 11, pause in his or her labors of the day, and at the hour of noon, say a silent prayer at war shall come no more,—a pray- for those who have gone—a two tes spent in paying tribute to those who made the end of the conflict possible. Thus early he has made the request that it may be talked of; that the tribute may be universal — that all shall learn to remember the day and hour and come to it with the spirit which should be given, in all rever- ence, at that time. 2 Remember November 11, and the oldiers’ two minutes which should given them. is over- “JEST RUMINATIN".” (Robert Russell) They're meetin’ there in Wash- ington to help the unemploy- ed; They're thinkin' o’ the maay things those fellers ain’t en- joyed For weeks an’ months, while they themselves ain’t noticed things were wrong, Except, when they walked round their plants, t heard no cheerful song, O’ men enjoyin' what they done, an’ lookin’ for the day When things would hum, an’ then, perhaps, would come a raise in pay.

WILSON, AT HOME. It is said that Joe Tumulty, former- ly secretary to former President Wil- son, is rather emphatic in his declara- tion that the Former President Wil- son will take no active part in advis- ing the Democratic senators regarding the treaties. Be it said that the former president doea not have to take any active part, even though he were able. Had his League of Nations become binding up- the United States as it has been upon its members, there would have been no necessity for treaties with Germany, Austria and Hungary at this time. Moreover it will be remembered, probably, that Mr. Wilson wanted things done his way. It is therefore inconceivable to imagine just what he would say now that things have gone on to this point, and in the way ol whick he did not approve, and he had been suddenly placed in the midst of them in a position where he must act. Tt is impossible, therefore, to say what ho would advise, in the pres- ent situation had he not been through the previous fight. But knowing what has happened, and having stuck to his position through a great illness, it is quite sure that e would retain that position, he would insist that similar treaties be made with all countries if those coun- tries would join in the Treaty of Ver- <ailles, covenant and all, in which the United States would have joined a long time since. Woodrow Wilson's views have not changed, though it is quite possible that his long, continued illness has made him feel greatly re- lieved that the people allowed him to retire from the strife, and that an en- trance into it again would be most un- seemly. But the senators who wish to know his attitude should not have to figure long on that point. The length of time they should devote to the question would be was Woodrow Wilson right in the first place and would be right now, holding to the same theories al- though they would be applied to a changed situation. INVITED TO LEAGUE. It is reported that the United States will be invited by Great Britain and France practically to enter tho League of Nations, at the Washington conference on tho limitation of arma- menta. The main fight against the League, when it was the one great subject of the campaign, was Article Ten. It ig said that the interpretation of this and other articles by the league has shown the United States their erroneous con- ception then. Moreover it is said that the universal peace desired cannot bz obtained by a decision to limit.armaments of the powera that will meet and will be joined by the covenants made at the Washington conference. And Eng- land’s and France's contention is true that the possession of large armaments by the smaller states constitutes aa great 4 danger to universal peace as would such possession by the larg nations Who have more to gain and lose through war. They feel, there- fore, that the only means of accom- plishing a disarmament that will as- sure peace, is by working with unan- imity, the small as well as the great nations bein: included.

There is something peculiarly touch- ing about a bald-headed man’'s con- demnation of bobbed hair. It is asserted that the Disarmament Conference will mark the first page of a new era of history. You might call it the frontispeace. There are two kinds of poets: Those who write real poetry, and those who make a pretty good living.

It provides that any nation breaking its League obligations with regard to going to war shall be considered to have com- mitted an act against all the other members of the League and shall be subject to severance of all relations. * It seems that all the delegations agreed that Article X did not consti- tute a pledge of members to go to war to protect the borders of members but was a declaration of principle and a pledge of the nations not to violate the territory of their neighbors, with agreement that such aggression would be punished largely with the use of the economic weapon. This construc- tion states that no nation is bound to se~d troops for such a purpose. Even a re-writing of the covenant has been suggested and there can be little question but that any desire of the United States would be embodied in the covenant or stricken from it. Every time there is a war in Europe someonc here is apt to say, “Now we might have to send out boys across again if we were in the League.” Under this construction such action would not be obligatory mcrally or ethically or by the terms of the cov- enant. There! is no question but that this league is quite a different one from the one fought agdinst during out presidential campaign, as it was then conceived. One who favored the Leagua so construed it at that time. Such a one relied more on the economic boycott than on anything else. We may not be more ready to join the League than we were at the time of electior, but we know a deal more about it, and people all over the coun- try will consider deeply, once again, the matter of linking hands with the newly interpreted League, which could, eventually, bring about actual disarm- ament. “Groundwork to Aid Unemployed Already Laid,” headline.

Court reconvened today for the regular Fall term. No cases of National im- portance were placed upon its docket Jduring the summer recess.
