The New Haven Leader denounces @s a dangerous bill to private inter- ests & resolution introducedsto the gflem assembly, which reads as fol- “Resolved by this assembly: Thas} the Danielsonville Cotton company, for fts own purposes, is authorized and empowered to comstruct lines of poles with rwives and clectric fixtures there- on and eomduct electricity along the same, upon bhighways or upon privite property in the towns of Killingly and Pomfret, between its proposed power plant in the town of Pomfret and its roperty in the towns of Pomfret and Killingly; and is given and granted the right and authority to take, in the manner provided for the taking of land for raflroad companies, such real estate, rights of way, and ease- s as its directors shall consider mes necessary for the construction of any such pole line which sald direc shall locats upon private pro The Leader very properly conside this an unwarrantable extension of | power, an invasion of personal rights, | and it says: “This resolutipn obviously proposes to give to a private corporation the right to take land for private uses by the law of eminent domain “If such authority ean be given to one power company it can be given to numberless others of like character. “It proposes an infringement of pr vate rights to an extent never before proposed in any bill or resolution fa- vorably reperted by s legislative com- mittee, “It ought to be defestsd and the fight Mr. Bishop will make against it when it egain comes up for considera- tion ought to result in its defeat.” This measure would be in no danger of passing were a majority of the rep- resentatives to the general assembly property owners; and if intelligently considerad thers appears to be littls whance for it The law of eminent domain should 70t be perverted to promote corporate interests for n them the interests of the whole people are mot involved. Such legislation might lead to a chameful abuse of power. MISREPRESENTATION OF FACTS. |’ In his reply to the report of Senator | Hemenway, President Roosevelt shows clearly that there has been a gross exaggeration of the facts concern the number of men employed in secret service and the amount of comt. The president says “To speak of thess men as ‘become an ‘army’ or as ‘3,000 the | n e gaged n secret service' and similar work is comically out of accord with the actua] facts, The increase was 7 men, of whom but a score r two habitually engaged in ‘secret ser work’ As for the amount expended the statements In the debate in bo houses are so exaggerated as to hear no reference whatever to the actual figures. Thus it was state: two- that thirds of the money appropriated .’m’i | the department of justics was spent In criminal investigation. As & matter of faet, the attorney gemeral reports to me that the a tion 0 spen construed on the most liberal possi- ®ble basis, was fn reality 1.7 per cent 0 that the statement in question was | o thirty-fold exaggeration. | “In the same way it was stated that 10,000,000 (or, as ons gentleman put | it, that $20,000,000) represented the | amount expended for this seeret sery- l ice work, while the totals of another | _ st of figures amount to $32,000,000 as money which could have been ex- pended for such work. A table care- | fully compfled, covering all the de- | partments, shows the amount actually | expended ‘during the first six months of the present fiscal year in all work that can by any possibility be consid- | ered to come under thig heading as a | Yttle less than $764,000—an estimated tote) for the entire fiscal year of a proximately $1,600,000—which goes shew that the statements referred to contain only from 5 to 17 per cent, of | warrant in faot." | Our congressmen seem to be learn g the tricks of the scnsational r porters. 1t is hardly fair to the go ernment to so grossly misrepresent to the people, WORKING OUT ALL RIGHT. The most excited paper in the coun- over Congressman Lilley's exne ure of politieal graft in the navy districts, and of the especlal v ness of the Charleston yard of big battleships, must be t0 hear that Senator Tillman is pry claiming that politics is running the navy department, and the Charleston (8, °C.)

J. Hill or our own Mellen, and the idea found im- medliate opposition, and Tillman said an emperor was necessery first before the plan could be endorsed. Nothing came of the suggestion and nothing is likely to eome of it for the present, for it must be thoroughly dis- cussed and brought to the attention of the perple, The Kansas City Journal declares that the ablest and most capable men in the nation should be in the natlon's service. But as a consequence of dis- trust and suspicion taught by dema- sosues the great corporations have nost a monomoly of the best brains of the country while the people must con- tent themselves, as a rule, with the services of the second-raters, men of mediocre ability who have never been able to aghieve any great measure of success in thelr own affairs and who, obviously, are unable to render any better service for their country. This is, manifestly, a poor policy for the people to pursue. They ought to have the best public gervants that can be had, ‘'and they would have them but for 'this absurd prejudice which we have alluded to and the picayunish parsimony which is practiced in pub- lle affairs, of paying such poor sala- ries that the best men cannot afford to accept the offices, Uncle Sam should be at least as wise and alive to his interests the corporations, which employ the ablest men to be had and pay them adequate salaries. Such agitation does no harm. The people know what they want, and in due time they will be very likely get it is LABELING GOODS. The persgh who prepared the bill now in the legislative mill requiring that all gonds made in the state pris- on be stamped “convict made,” was too liberal and generous, He should have included & demand that il art wanufactured in the state bear a label ecifying the nationality, political s us_bellefs, character and st ing in the community.of the people | who worked on them.

Sometimes he carried a bag or two of seeds on an old horse, but more frequently he bore them on his back, going from place to place on the wild frontler; clearing a little patch, sur- rounding it with a rude enclosure, and planting seeds therein.” It was sald of Johnny that he could not bring himselt to kill or do injury to any creature.
