These two words expressed the re- sult of the city election, and it was just what was to have been expected at the close of a good republican ad- ministration in the Anniversary year. The voters of Nerwich usually know what they want and how to get it. “The republicans are to be congratulat- ed upen thelr work and thefr com- plete endor t by the people. WHAT A CITY NEEDS: ‘There are thousands of editorials written during eamch succeeding year in this country exploiting what the city needs, and about one in fifty strikes high noon by pointing out that all meeds center in progressive man- hood—the spirit of progress will make any community great because it em- bodiés every attractive quality. The tity may need public play- grounds, more tenements, the abolish- ment of the old eyesores, and a deep- er ‘sense of civic pride; but its real need is men who possess the energy, unity and foresight to realize the dif- ference between a graveyard and a live town, and who know that to live for. self alone is to become incapable of oo-operation and to degenerate so that the city’ls an expression of their narrowness and greed, ‘When the men of a city get to- gether In the right spirit, all the rest of the good things will follow in their order. VERMONT INDUSTRIAL AD- VANCE. Govermor Prouty of Vermont, the sther day, told the newspapers of Bos- ton that during the past five years Vermont manufactures have increased faster in proportion to the percentage of inhabitants than in any other New England state. It is pleasant to be able to trumpet abroad a fact like this about one's state. The reason of it fs that Vermont has something more to offer than natural attractions. That state has as a rule low taxes and few labor contentions. Irrational conflicts end ruinous competition have taken the industrial prastige of many New England cities away from themr—bus- iness has been forced to seek & more congental atmosphere. Vermont is in- viting on account of its primitive- ness—the loss of neighboring states is its gain. A LABEL NEEDED, The tobacco growers of this state are seeking protection from those who 3| should at once be able to command put an inferior leaf upon the market as the real thing, and they ask that the legislature will enact a law requiring all Connecticut leaf tobacco to be plainly labelled “Connecticut,” but the packers are apposed to it, and the committee on agriculture has reported against it. The Providence Journal reads true when it says “the United States produces-more tobacco than any other country in the world, and Conmecticut shares with Florida the leadership for wrapper leaf. Yet the state name is quite unfamiliar to the average consumer. The growers claim that inferior tobacco from other sources 15 brought into the state by the packers and goes out under the good name of Connecticut leal” Tt is strange that an adverse report should be made upon such a good protective provision as this appears to be. WHAT I8 A PLUG? This question is readily answered here, for once upon.-a time all Beach pond trotters 'were plugs pure and simple, A plug is a poor, old, worn- out horse, and there are plenty of them in eastern Connecticut. The horse is the worst abused do- mestlc animal there is, and a plug is what remains after the animal has been brought to a stage bordering up- on the last ditch. The manager of a big business concern has sald that he no longer tries to purchase good horses, because the drivers would mis- treat them, and make “plugs” of them, anyway. This 1s a terrible indict- ment. We know of a case where a man starved the team ke was driving| and sold the feed for a couple of drinks. We know of a case where a man worked a team all day, fed them and then rented them out to work all night, and kept it up till the horses were ‘skeletons. Note the drivers on the streets who strike a horse to start him, who thrash him to make him run, who beat him ‘when he stumbles or makes an error. ‘Horses are overworked, underfed, in- &requently nwu.m—mm readily got out of him. It is the brute mtnh: ;?:' makes the plug, and that such brutes are too common. . RESPECT THE UNIFORM OF THE STATE. The lence of the militia at Sport hill last ltondu is an object lesson to the state of Comnecticut. Something should done to make the uniform of the state respected as much as is the uniform of the United States army, If the militia are to be effective there must be inculeated in the minds of the public & thorough re- spect for its uniform and what it rep- resents, The state guardsman repr sents the law of the state, the same as the law of a city is represented by a policeman, and the law of the Unit- ed States by its army and navy. The uniform of any of these bodies is sig- nificant, and any man wearing It vespect. The uniform of the state should carry with it such a prestige that young men should be anxious and eager to wear it, and be proud of it when they are enrolled in the state service. No city or town knows when the services of the militia may be needed and when it 1s, it is desirable that there be a well organized body of men available—men who will,’ be- cause of their presence, inspire awe and fear, if necessary, in the minds of those disorderly elements that some- times gain control for a brief period. It it is the custom to jeer and jibe at the mflitfa by such smart youths as often make up a transient crowd it will be found diffieult to secure desira- ble young men to enlist. But the state should think enough ef its own uniform to compel respect for it and to properly punish those who see fit to insult it. Connecticut might well emulate Massachusetts, which imposes a fine of $100 on any person who wan- £l tonly insults a member of the state militia in uniform.—Bridgeport Post. Americans should respect the man in the uniform, and the man in the uni- form should respect the government. A bum or a beat or a drunkard is no more worthy of respect in the uniform than out of it. The man who disgrace; himself and thus disgraces the uni- form s wholly to blame for the bad odor In'which uniformed ‘men appear to be in now and then. The uniform is regarded by some with the same reverence as the flag, and the man who trails the flag in the dirt is soon brought to order. Ought it not to be the same with the men who by dis- reputable conduct make of their uni- formed comrades suspects? Thers is little danger of a militlaman being wantonly {nsulted: who behaves him- self uprightly and courteously toward all, ALL EYES ON SEATTLE. For a fifty-year-old ecity, Seattle is an American wopnder, and in the next, few months it is to be In the limelight and after that it is likely to take on new energy and grow faster than ever. The Post-Intelligencer of that city says concerning business there for May: “The bullding permits Issued during the month called for an ex- penditure of $1,590,045, an amount $385,733 in excess of the building rec- ord for May, 1908. Besides, the per- mits issued' during the first five months of the year called for a total expenditure of $9,514,125, a sum near- ly $5,000,000 in excess of the amount involved in bullding activities during the Tirst five months of last year. Bank clearings in May reached a tots] of $48,049,612, the largest total for jany spring month in the history of the city, and an increase of 53 per cent. over May, 1909. Indeed, only twice before, October, 1906, and October, 1907, have the clearings for any month equaled the total of clear- ings for May, 1969. The total clear- ings for the first five months of the current year was $206,557,697, against $164,363,870 in 1908, $197,681,571 1n 1907, and $190,665,234 in 1906. These evidences of substantial prog- ress leave mo doubt that the men of Seattle are al] right or that the wheels of industry are spinning there. EDITORIAL NOTES.

There are two methods of municipal economy—to spend less money, or to get more done for the money spent. When it comes to talking, Senator LaFollette can drive Aldrich out; but that is the only way in which he can make him tired. If the Seattle exposition should look a large deficit In the face, a few months from now, it will only be following precedent. The Connecticut legislature has not begun to think about adjourning yet; but that is something it never sweats itself over, anyway. The rumble of the ice wagon ap- pears to be more disquieting than ever. Even the fast melting ica seems to be in the game. Between the June brides and June roses the June hammock does not get much publicity, but it is en all im- portant convenience. To have a collector call with an old bill when the vacation money ha¢ just been rounded up, is an embarrassing situation for any man. The output of whiskey this year is said to be larger than ever; and the government has not yet been able to tell just what whiskey is. The fact that all anarchists have been ordered to withdraw from the churches seems to indicate what all churches say of them Is true. It is surprising how quiek two mil- lions can be exhausted in law, and Bow little there is to show for it aft- er the distribution is all over, Our forefathers did not know how to put hens' eggs in cold storage for future reference, but they were none the worse for lack of the knowledge. ‘The rosebug Is one of the things that cannot get Into the June lime- light, but he gets iato the cherry tree Simpkins, bumpin in a vain en furnishing almost as mu department filled with wild beasts, naanly was cut out of the crowd by the compelling gaze of a fair demonstrator.

Simpkins gazed in rapt flml.!‘tlon lt her elaborately dw flufty, lacy lingerie walst, !armlnulnl at the neck in a burst of’white chiffon that foamed up around her ears with a weird effect of being buttoned to them by the big pearl earrongs. “It freshens and softens the skin," she purred, leaning toward Simpkins and rnking into his face with a ten- der, personal interest. “Makes it take on the bloom of youth. Absolutely harmless. Can be used on an infant's skin without the slightest danger.” Simpkins looked at the smelly pink eéneoction rather dubiously. “Kind of a funny thing for a fellow to be buying, huh?” he demurred, touching the mixture gingerly with an strator eagerl: ‘We sell lots of it to gentlemen' folks.

She turned back to Simp- kins, resting her small hands on the counter and humming a little tun “Getting warmer out, isn't it? inquired, presently. “Some,” replied: Simpkins.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. An Exception Taken. Mr. Editor:—In the last installment f George T. Bromley's charming rem- iniscences of his Jong life certain stric- tures upon foreign missionary work as observed by him In North China call for a rejoinder. No traveler who cares to take the slightest pains need have any trouble in discovering scores of genuine Christian Chinamen in and about every well organized missiol Tientsin and Chefu are no exceptions Half a hundred thickly settled villages in the district of Tientsin have each their vigorous bands of “pious” men and women organized into branch churchet No_missionary with common eense and Christianity enough to deserve the name could ever assert that in fifteen years he had never seen a Chinaman who was truly converted to Christian- ity. 1 had not been three days in Tientsin before 1 saw scOres of men d women who were soundly convert- ed Christians. I am personally ac- quainted with a great many. Seven years of missionary residence in North China fixed forever my conviction that evangelistic, educational, medical and industrial missions are emphatically successful. The Boxer outbreak of 1800 tested and proved the sincerity of thousands of Chinese Christianss won to a higher life b{ the direct or indirect instru- mentality of missions. Mr. Bromley's skepticism with regard to the convert- ability of the Chinaman cannot stand the light of the facts. GEO. H. EWING. Norwich Town, June 5, 1909. Law and Protection. Mr. Editor; It would naturally ap- pear that the people of the United States ought not to complain of pres- ent conditions, on account of the ab- sence ‘or lack of law, seeing that out of 483 members of our national legis- lature there are 327 lawyers in both houses, a clear majority of 156. The Earl of Chatham once said, “Show me the laws of a country, and T will show you the condition of its people.” Of course this would depend on the kind of laws, whether good or bad. It would be natural to suppose that with such an array of talent making our laws, there ought not to be any bad laws. But is there such a thing as bad laws? First, let us ascertaln what law is. Sir Edward Coke says: “That nothing which is against reason is law For yeason is the life of the law, nay, the common law itself is nothing but reason.” Then, to know whether it is good law, it must be measured by reason and common sense, the highest law known to man. But are not the people, as a rule, more to blame for what is called bad laws, than the ~ law makers themselves? There are a large number of people, if not a majority, that if you say any- thing to them about the tariff, or finance, will reply: “I don't know anything about politics.” Do these people know the true meaning of poli- tics, not the common acceptance of the vmrrl, but its true meaning® The dictionary says: “Politica, The science or the art of government, or the administration of national or pub- lic affairs. Political. Pertaining to government, policy, polity, or politics. Politiclan. One versed in’ the science of government; a person skilled in, or devoted to, politics.” Accordln; to this version, it is not a crime to “talk It would seem by this, that about the first duty of a voter should be to be- come a politician. If not, what is the ballot for? Just at present congress, or at least the senate, is wrangling (will you call it?) over a “protective tarift.” Let us analyze this word, “protective, or protection.” Protection means, something, or somebody, to be guarded against injury or danger. In this tariff discussion, ‘it is the work- ingman, the laborer, that is to be pro- tected. ' From the importation of goods made by labor at less wages than the wages here. The imported goods will take the place of goods made here, thus depriving the laborer here from producing such goods. This “Infures” the laborer here by depriving him of work, Every dollar's worth of im- ported goods broight in and sold here deprives the laborer here of just so many dollar's worth of goods he could have made. I think every intelligent person will agree with that, Now, if you are to “protect” the laborer here, and he can produce the goods here, why not put on a tariff high enough to prohibit the importation of such goods? This would “protect” the Am- erican workingman. “He would have no competition with the “pauper labor” of other countries. This prohibitive tariff to be placed on stch goods can be made here in sufficient quanti- tity to supply the American demand. Any goods that cannot be prodiced here, let it come In free. tective tariff,” provided, you are si cerely trying to “protect the Ameri- can workingman” Just as soon as you put on a tariff so low as to allow foreign goods to come in and compete with ours, you do mot “protect” the laborer. It injures the workingman to allow these goods to come in at all, at any price. Horace Greeley once said: “The way to resume is to re- sume.” The way to “protect” is to “protect” This tariff is to be a “law.” Should it not have as much “reason” in it as any other law? I it not rea- sonable that if you are to protect the workingman, that he should be pro- tected in a reasonable way? If there be “no cat under the meal” he can- not be protected in any other way. It it be unreasonable, then it must be unlawful. Can any one give any bet- ter method of protection? If 8o let us have it. Iam a protectionist, J. C. VALLETTE. North Frankiin, Conn, WHAT THE PAPERS SAY, The Congressional Fighters. Commenting on the recent set-to be- tween “Kid” Manning and Heavy- weight Bailey in Washington, ahd of the unsatisfactory result, since neither was knocked out, the New Haven Journal-Courfer says: “So, on the whole, the meeting was very unsatis- factory, and it is to be hoped that an- other fight can soon be arranged which will decisively determine the champion- ship. Then possibly a match with some famous fighter of the House Athletic club can be signed for. Sports in Washington are talking about nothing else. It would undoubtedly be a draw- ing card if a ‘go’ could be fixed up be- tween ‘Sunny Jim’ Sherman and ‘Uncle Joe’ Cannon. - We imagine that after Uncle Joe’s exhibition bout with ‘Jack O'Brien in Philadelphia there will be few of his compatriots in the congress of these United States who will care to come to actual blows with him. Mr. HIIl of Connecticut' scared him to a standstill once, and would be barred politics,” nor does it make a criminal of a man because he is a “politician.” and does more damage than the rob- ins. ‘Why should Flag day be a legal hol- iday?

In supplying that demand with its ex- cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remark- able success.
