Norwich, Tuesday, April 6, 1909. UNSIGHTLY LOTS. Among the leper spots of every city are the unsightly Jots which are usu- ally fronted by a line of bill boards and strewn with old tin cans, ferment- ing food and animaj matter, poi- soning the atmosphere for Dlocks. There are only & few such spots in Norwich, but these few ought to be cleaned and put in a healthful condi- tion. These spots With a merry widow front and a death dealing hebind are a disgrace to any city. The New Ha- ven Journal-Courler says: “Last years clean-up week saw the dolng away with any number of un- sightly lots wbout the city. Few If any of ‘these lots have since then de- generated back to thelr former condi- tion. This weelf's clean-up should see the mbolishment of those few lots whieh still remain. All that is neede is & little co-operation among the pub- lie spirited citizens, The chief of po- liee has pleased all by the hearty man- ner in which he has given his support 10 the movement for a cleaner city by instructing his men to be especially on the slert this week in that regard.’ This e whet iy needed—publle in- terest, individual resolution, cordial co-operation. No eity mneeds fiith catchers or glop holes or disease breeders. Bvery city should see that health laws are enforced and pure at- mosphere s maintained. TAFT FOR CONSOLIDATION. President Taft stands for every zood thing. News comes from Wash- ington that he is in favor of the con- solidation of the federal health de- artments and would place them un- one head to dncrease their ef- and to make an end of the re- ce of balking antagonisms. This fs a policy which must com- d tsel to the people, for the ange would probably establish bet- onditions fa regard to the en- emont of the purs food laws than been revealed by the practical cation of orders from the bureau chemistry of the agricultural de- ent by a decision of a board of <perts upon & question that had cen practically settled to the satis- faction of consumers befors the oard was calied into being. This is & most consistent proposi- tion, angd it bears on its face the sug- gestion of more pleasing and more ef- ective garvice. BROAD-MINDEDNESS. Admiral Schley has been In obscur- ity for the last few years. This has been due to the stralned relations be- tween him and the Roosevelt admin- istration. Upon the death of Admiral Cervera of Spain he now comes for- ‘ward with a eulogy of the man he so signally defeated, a eulogy which does him credit as well ag Cervera. “Cer- vera undertook the only course left to him,” he says, “and he acted as wise- 1y as any other could have done un- der the circumstances, Tt was a case of measuring his strength with that of the enemy and ke lost, losing all save his henor.” That is true broad-mind- odness.—New Haven Journal-Courler. Admirel Sohley was always broad- minded. He saw at that time there wag glory enough In victory for every man of the navy, even to the last bluejacket to have his ghare. There was no need of a quarrel and he never asked too much of his superior offi- cer. Bchley did his duty at Santiago and history will not place him second to any man there. He knew how to appreciate success and how to justly measure his enemy, THE OLD BALANCE. There was never a tariff any more | successful or upon the whole satlsfac- tory as & revenue producer than the Dingley tarifft up to the time that national folly and extravagance made it inadequate to meet the public re- quirements. The nation is bullding a great canai and has great island ex- penses in consequence of the Spanish war, and it s probable that with a little curtallment of expenses and a few corrections of the tariff the ol and satisfactory financial might have been restored. s a mistake to make a new tariff to meet our extraordinary expenses, It is be- ing and the house should take counsel of the retired secretary of commerce and labor, the present secretary of the treasury, or some other man that hag had the tralning of running a large business without the help of an ad- visory councll of 500, They would pick up a few points. It doesn’t seem necessary to tax the people to death to mest a temporary exigency. We may dslve enterprises to success, but not by driving the peopls to distrac- tlon on account of excessive taxes. BEN. TILLMAN’S STEAL, The naval appropriations as a source of graft are so well knéwn in character and held in such personal regard by politicians that it is not surprising for newspaper readers to hear that the senators or congress- men are not only aware of the steal but are openly demanding their share of it The Bulletin does not hold Senator Tillman in high esteem, but occasion- ally he delivers himself Ir a way somewhat to his credit if to the na- tion's alarm. While the naval budget was under consideration recently, he| 1s reported to have said: “This bill s loaded down with ex- pansion in every navy yard. I am go- ing to try to get a little for Port Royal, because if you are going to steal I want my share.” Congressman Lilley was charged with insulting his colleagues when he @14 not say anything approaching this against his associates. What the gov- ernment needs to do is to return to the old-fashioned method of doing the business of the government upon strictly business principles, A Dakota girl who drew a cholce section of government land gives no- tice that she has all she can do to meanage the farm, and that husbands need not apply. President Taft has shown since he came to the presidency that If he is a Unitarfan he can attend church with & pumctuality that puts others to shague, 1d for a truth that the senate| CONGRESSIONAL FREAKS. The freak bill was once a legisla- tive curlosity, and it ig only recently that it has become & thing of note in congress. It is not improbable that it will stick for some time, now that it hag forced itself into the legisla- tive halls of the nation. Representative Sheppard of Tex: though not entirely new to Washing- ton, is yet in the freshman class. He leaped out of a demse obscurity the other day by Introducing forty-eight bills in a Jump, among them one to alter the preamble of the constitution; | another to erect a monument to George Washington's mother, and a third to call a national prghibition congress. There is Pdwards of Ken- tucky, who nearly caused his fellow- congressmen to faint away by pro- posing the reduction of salaries from $7,600 to $5,000. Since the appearance of these meas- ures it is suggested that a bill naming universal gizes for waste baskets, #hoes and omnibuses or one making the use of chewing gum in the District of Columbia a misdemeanor, ought to appeal to some new comer in congress, Anything to draw attention to one's self whether it is wise or unwise is a growing habit. | egs are getting too cheap for per- | sons who like to feed upon fine food, to eat. | = Sl | There are lots of familles whose | motto it 1s that “it is cheaper to move than to clean house.” Monday was a day on which oné ex- | pects to hear ringing out on the spring |atr: “Play B A $10000 French bulldog did not | know that corks were unhealthy.

They used the rubber to give the maple fla- vor which is so much sought after.’ “But what did they make the syrup out of then?” asked Mrs. Schoonerby, with a puzzled look. “There are no hemlock trees in Chicago, are there?” “Don’t need trees of any sort,” an- swered Schoonerby, shortly.. “Trees are a nuisance — take up too much room.
