The republicans of this city placed in nomination on Wednesday evening a ticket for city offices which should commend itself to all the ecitizens for the business ability which it repre- sents, Over half the candidates are men whose experience and efficiency in public life leave no question as to their fitness. Mr. Grosvener Ely is a new man—a young man of promise because of his training and education, who brings dignity and homor to public life and who will make an admirable alder- man. Mr., Lyman W. Whiting is also a live and successful business man with every commendable qualification for the honor. The four candidates for council- men are citizens of stamina and abil- ity and are worthy of the full support of their party. City Clerk Crowell is .prompt and efficlent and a winner. The treasurer, Ira L. Peck, repub- Hcan, and the collector, Thomas A. Robinson, democrat, have the full con- fidence of the people, and their nomi- nations by both parties makes the bal- lot only a formality for them. The candidates for city sherift are well known and Mr. Rouse’s previous service has not been forgotten, The nomination of Albert S. Com- stock as water commissioner, which is equivalent to an election, retains in this important office & man who has by his ability for the past eight years won the respect and oonfidence of the men of both parties. He is one of the most capable officers of the water board, and his loyalty and faithfulness there should be accepted as an evi- dence of hworth for a hlxher;ta- tion. Téken ld’{u completeness, this eity ticket s the most ig¥iting to the pub- lic of any ticket of recent years. A STATE ROAD. Mr. Frank J. King is right in his estimate of the value of a state road on the east side of the Thames be- tween Norwich and New London, and s a part of the state highway com- missioner’s plan it may be comsidered as settled without any speclal prod- ding or prompting of that officer. ‘What he plans to do with the .ap- proval of the state he does with the co-operation of the parties in inter- est. There was a time when every town would have had to be consulted and to have consented, but under the later and better arrangement the state does the work because the towns of smal] grand lists are not equal to their ehare of the tax required for their bullding and support. It is, as ‘was suggested, a business entérprise, both on aceount of its scenic attrac- tions and excellent facilities for trav- el and business. The Bulletin agrees with this senti- ment, and it feels sure that State Highway Commissioner Macdonald will meet the committee of the board of trade more than half way and give them assurance of his purpose te do the work as early as possiple under the conditlons of the good Foads law. On account of the abundance of grass the price of milk has gone down one cent at Wakefield, Mass.,, where it has sold for 8 cents for years. Some men are so habltuated that they never think that they had a good time if they do not get up with a se- vere headache the day after. Salem, Mass., 18 booked for an Old Home week in July. As a coast city it has the east wind to give assurance of coolness to fts enterprise, The heavy financiers say that Mr. Patten only improved an opportunity, but as it ground the face of the peor comsuendable. in order to protect the of South Carol Americen intelligence. South Caro- lina. after over twenty-five years of work produces on the average little more than 10,000 pounds yearly. The consumption of tea in the United States is about 100,000,000 pounds yearly. It is proper to ask the question: Should 80,000,000 people be taxed for their tea for the benefit of a few holdere and against the protests to the senate and house of consumers, and wholesale, jobbing and retail as- goclations, from all over the United States? The latter numbers 400,000 retal] merchants, representing the tea- consuming public of the United States, ‘The addition of 10 cents a pound duty means that the consumer will have to pay 15 cents more for tea, and‘this is an imposition which should not be put upon the masses, RAISING FISH FOR A PROFIT. ‘There are large lakeg in eastern Connecticut which could be used for the cultivation of carp and it is likely that such fish culture would pay. The fishermen at Ithaca, N. Y., re- port that fourteen tons of carp have been sent to New York city from Cayuga lake since the opening of the fishing season. They réceive a whole- sale price of four cents a pound, and the fish sell readily in the great city, where food of all kind finds a ready market. ‘When the earp was introduced in this country, its value as a food fish was much vaunted, but of late the fish has been decried as a nuisance and effort is being made in a number of states to exterminate it in certain waters. Considering the fact that meat is generally high in price, and that the carp finds a ready sale as an article of food, the condemnation of the fish as & nuisance is not explainable ex- cept on the ground that in some places it has driven out game fish. | But the food" supply of a nation is an important economic item, and the carp seems to he contributing heavily toward making the annual catch of fish sufficient for the demand. EDITORIAL NOTES. The mosquito finds the peek-a-boo waist very convenient, as well as oth- ers. - A murderer' can cover his tracks very well, but he can never make his consclence right. The Porto Ricans should study good behavior. To misbehave might bring lamentable results to them. ‘When a lunatic escapes and takes a joy ride ' in an automobile that is just what is expected of him, The straw hat feels at home when the roses bloom in the open. It is now coming forth with assurance, There are 158 cities in this country with over 30,000 population. That is a good showing for a young country. Remembering the dead is a most worthy example, but forgetting-the Hving is just as condemnable as ever. President Taft sits in silence, al- though his opinion of tariff revising would be mighty interesting reading. X SR ST RN D The Boston man who has set Sep- tember 15th for the end of the world should prepare himself for disappoint- ment. A Kentucky man pleads guilty to not having taken a drink of water for twenty years. He doesn’t complain of thirst. The average dividends In 44 New England cotton mills has been 6.67 for the past 20 years. That is doing pretty well. Attention is called to the fact that Count Zeppelin is getting the compli- ments, and that the Wright brothers are making the most money from air{ navigation. There appears to be no doubt that the summer is going to be hot, for the demand for shore cottages is as good as ever. The Princess of Orange is sald to look n her photographs pretty enough to be recognized with the average American baby. Happy thought for today: The cit- fzen who is prompted to vote by his prejudices is always on the wrong side of the political fence. MR. KENEALY AT HOME. Chairman of Republican State Central Committee Leaves the Stamford Hos- pital. Michael yesterday, Kenealy left the hospital and is now at his home in Suburban avenue. He ls, of course, weak after his long illness and the surgical operation, but there is an excellent prospect that his recovery to his full strength will be rapid. Mr. Kenealy sat on his pilazza yesterday afternoon and was heartily welcomed by many of his friends. He is very cheerful, and is anxious to get back to his work as soon as possible. He is especially interested in the resutl-of a suit involving the constitutionality of the emyployers’ liability act, which he won in the superior court and pre- pared for the supreme court of errors, { where, however, it must be argued by another, as a speedy determination is desired, not only by the present litigants, but by persons and corpora- tions throughout the state. Since his convalescence began, Mr. Kenealy has | kept pretty well posted and his friends regard it as a splendid sign that he is taking a keen interest in everything.— Stamford Advocate.

WHAT‘ THE PAPERS SAY. “Almost Impeached.” Among the memorial services of Monday was one in honor of Andrew Johnson. We observe with interest a headline in the Waterbury American that revives a discussion which re- recently took place in the editorial rooms of the Courant and spread con- siderably beyond. The American re- fers to Johnson as one “who was al- most impeaced.” Not long ago the London Spectator (and that was what started the discussion) referred to Johnson as the “president who was im- peached.” The general impression ac- cords with the Waterbury one. High authorities in the law differed when questioned on the subject, but the ma- Jority of them gave at first the opin- ion that Johnson was not impeached. On second thought, however, it was generally agreed that he really was impeached, although the impeachment failed of securing conviction. In a sense impeachment corresponds with indictment. A man may be indicted and tried and acquitted. Similarly one may be impeached and tried and ac- quitted. That was what happened to Johnson. It is a mistake to assume that im- peachment involves guilt -and that there is no Impeachment if conviction does not follow. The formal presenta- tion of charges of misconduct in of- fice In {tself impeaches. Andrew John- son was impeached; that is a part of history.—Hartford Courant, American Cruelty to Animals. Mrs. Bellamy Storer (“My, Dear Maria”), described once as “President of the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Ananias Club,” has written a letter to the Bos- ton Herald with characteristic interest and power of appeal. A very clever and able woman she is, or she would not have interested Mr. Roosevelt so much and so long. She touches a sub- ject which must have disturbed every humafie person who, on railway trains, has seen brakemen drag dogs through to the baggage car, followed by anxious, angry, or even weeping women: or in the baggage car has seen these poor creatures fastened to trunks, fright- ened half to death, and liable at any time to’ be scolded, or pushed aside or crushed under a tumbling pil~ of bag- gage. This is just the complaint she makes, and says that this count-- is unique in its methods eof h anim and their owners. A four pound dog, which she ecarried in ‘a basket in her lap, noiseless and in- offensive, and only to be noticed by prying eyes, was carried into the - gage car and kept there, notwithstand- ing her protest. In Europe, she says, kennels are provided for big dogs, na emaller ones, that can be carried in baskets, are admitted to regular cars with thelr owners by the payment of the value of a dog ticket, which varies in diflerent ¢ ‘countries.—Waterbury American, “Your baseball team doesn’t seem to be drawing very large crowds this season.” “No. There is little interest in the game here.
