In this city the clty setties some claims for damages | because of the | slippery of this nature which makes the city ages resulting from falls in the highway, which has| been extended to cover the sidewalk There has heen some discussion as to | able for dam- from Injuries received | whether or not ice and snow con- stituted such an impairment as to| render the city liable Oarporation Counsel Kirkham desired a charter | amendment which would release the excepting wh city from lability there was a defect in the walk, The princip upon which the city's lability in » is no basic of | cases | for instance on the walk, | may properly be predicated.

Oh, Little Red Schoolhouse, | Up there in the hills, | Your coming will lower | Our tax to three mills, It appears from an interpretation| of the “feast of reason and flow of | soul" at the first annual banquet of the common nesday evening, that adoption of the| plan of preventing the school com- mittee from spending anything over $300 without the approval of the common council would bring back the poor little Red Schoolhouse and do| away with the sometimes embarrass- | ing modern cducational structures n'i the city of which the unenlightened | have foolishly béen proud. Now we know why the charter amendment was favored—it was to bring back that little Red Schoolhouse. And, of | course, the little Red Schoolhouse is the thing we want. Just think of the great men who were educated in that | litthe Red Schoolhouse! Certainly | what was good enough for them is| good enough for our children. Think Low sturdy the little ones of yes- terday became, fighting the draughts fn winter, dodging the spring rain drops as they seeped through the sweetly leaking roof with its pictur- esque air of decay ‘and homely sim- plicity. Of all things to be desired that little Red Schoolhouse the greatest. We have it on the authore ity of successful men. Bring it back; bring it back before our children suffer the horrible handicap of mod- ern education and, incidentally, be- fore we suffer the disaster of having council members Wed- is to pay for something that will not advance our own personal interests.

That those results have been | unsatisfactory to the general run of | the people, to “us masses” as Will | logers says, there can be little ques- | tion. Members of the commission are appointed by the General Assembly, the by the | Governor which, of course, means that | the Governor has the appointive power, The Democratic platform at the last election favored election by the people of these commissioners, This newspaper commended the suggestion, and nothing has happened since that time to alter the views then expressed. Mayor Paone: has offered his sup- port to the originator of a bill in the legislature which provides for the election by the people of the public utilities commissioners, 1t is presum- «d that The Mayors of Hartford and New Haven, being Democrats, and! other Democratic mayors, will give | like support. i ! nominations being made But the matter is one quite outside of politics, or one that should be di- vorced from politics. Affairs within the jurisdiction of this (‘ommisslonf are matters of vital concern ta all they people, and those who handle them hould be in touch with the people and answerable to them. The usual argu- ments will be advanced against the change—the arguments insisting that these commissioners should be chosen with special regard for their knowl-| edge and qualifications and that lht'lr“ selection should not left the people who are inclined to disregard But transportation much to the people to make them careless in selecting men | who will be able to attend to it effi-| Where the people may be less | be to such matters. means too ciently. exacting in the sclection of a public | official whose duties are the handling of state business which is not clearly the people who have to portation would be | understood, depend upon trar careful to place transportation matters in capable hands. If there is any one criticism 'lyu‘i1 may be made of the present commis- | on it is that its members have not| been close enough to the people and! a little too understanding of the needs| of a great corporation. This situation | is probably unpremeditated; the ten- | dency merely characteristic of the| members of the commission. But if the commission, with such capable| members has proven so unxa!w(ar-(ory’ what would be its success were the| membérs less efficient? | GROUNDHOG, BEGONIE, We refuse to believe it!
