Ameriean commerce, has been drv- en from the seas now for half a cen- 4 the people of other nations Dage “I-v wimt the American flag |°‘h¥he. George W. Childs Drexel, 4 Phiflad , banker, has been on a yaching crfise In American waters and he was surprised by the almost total absence of the flag from all South American ports. The people of those South American countries re- celve an entirely wrong impression concesning the United States, because they bepeme famillar with the flags of ofher ons, figing from their D x Basdor, while the flag of il 9 almest never seen. is betng calied to the fact that hetl congress passed the Gallin- ger Dbill after it had passed the ,. something like twelve large steamsiips would now be in process of *construction, every one of which, as soon as it was in commission, wet been flying the American in- forélgn ports. The bill pre- efi"\lur a payment by the govern- men? for carrylng the malls, as an encousggement to American ships. The . P! would have aggregated nb-tg:.‘“ & year. Now, it is wosth wiife to reflect that the post- office department in 1907 paid for the ocean madh service to foreign countries other then Canade and Mexico the s Z 5,624.21, while the proceeds xm by the government from post- age between the Upited States and fosglgn coumtries otier than Canada u,lufio was $6,008,807.53. This left a prait to the government of $3,043,- 188.92, or.nearly much as the Gallinger Mill caled for. The ericans who stand for a re- vival of the merchant marine, and those who are earnest to have the flag respected by the observation of its natal day might join their forces, and get the flag upon the seas once more and impress the world that we are a weorld power. A world power that dces all its business under for- sign flags has not the prestige of more self-r t nations. AMERICAN EXPORTS. While the exports of domestic prod- uctsfor may, 1909, were less inamount than In May, 1908, the value of them on account of increased prices was censiderably larger. ¥ The number of bushels of corn, for instange, was 45,733 less last month than in May, 1908, but the value of the exports was $12,349 mere. Meat and dairy products show a falling off. +Cattle on the hoof, hogs and sheep were fewer In number. Flour and wheat fell away greatly, as did the ofl exports. In cetton, however, there was a notable increase, the value ris- ing from $15,743,031 in May 1908, to $24,956,680 in May of this year. The exports of foodstuffs, cotton and min- eral oils show a galn in total of $3,- €25,000. Exports and imports while they in- dicate the public pulse to a degree, do not reflect the conditions of the general business of the country. The country can prosper with the balance of foreign trade against it. DEPORTATION OF CRIMINALS. There is a movement on foot in New York to shift the white man’s burden, and it has underlying it adeal of sense. According to Superintendent Collins of the state prison department, the prison population is made up of 990 alien conviets, of whom 319 were convicted of felenies within three yeags of their landing in this country, and there- fore under the law they may be sent back to countries from which they came. Superintendent Collins is to notify the department of commerce and labor at Washington, which has jurfsdiction over the deportation of such aliens, of the reports of his in- vestigation. It is also stated that Governor Hughes will be asked to commute the sentences of all such allens, whose sentences vary from a few. months to life imprisonment, in order that they may be deported in a body, without waiting for the expira- tion of their terms. Of the 319 who can be returned to thelr native land, over half_ are Ital- fans. It must be admitted that this is a ‘way to shift a burden, and thatethere is @ feeling of haste about it, is not to be wondered at. HAS JEFFRIES GONE MAD? The world expects prizefighters to indulge in a great deal of talk in or- der to work up excitement and tb make the prize ring profitable to all concemed; but it is rarely one of these pugilists says anything inerim- in#ting, and he s usually spoken of as releaging hot alr, or joshing. New a despatch from Pittsburg says that James J. Jeftries said there: “I have always been afrald of my own strength in the ring, for fear I would kill a man; but I will have no such fear when I get in a ring with Johmson. Wor the first time in ‘my lita, I will' then hit a man with all the foree in me. I want to see how far I can knock him. I hope when Ketchell meats Johnson, he kills him. ¥ repeat it, I'hope he kills.him!” This doesn’t sound like Jeffries when In his right mind. He has hith- erto ehown no such spirit or indulged in talk which might prove incrimi- nating. Having said this, suppese Jeffries should strike Johnson a fatal blow? Nefther he nor his lawyers would like to confront this statement in coust, for it shows a venom which would make a case against him inde- fensible. A San Francisco woman Has shown that her husband let her have but $20 in the fourteen years of her married life, and still Mrs, Gould thinks a wo- man cannot dress on less than $35,000 a year. The Connecticut farmers are still said to be putting up thousands of dollars to aid in the discovery of Captain Kidd's treasure. They are -ividends. mewshoys have to suffer on this ac- count as well washerwoman. A bright newsboy of Meriden protests through The Journal against the prac- tice. In, his letter to the editor, this boy says. . “A customer, known tx the paper- boy, 18 the one that says ‘I haven't any change, or ‘My husband is not at home.’ 'But Saturday is pay day and ‘all customers should have the money to pay for uulrjapnu on that day. 2 ' “Then comes .vacation, and some peoplg want to go away and need the change, so the paper-boy can wait. Why not think the paper-boy might want to go away, also? “A customer may think, T am the only one that lets it go, so it won't make any difference,’ but on a route of fifty, about fifteen put it off every ‘week. ‘hey all pay, but not every Satur- @ay. Why not, beginning tomorrow, have the money ready, or, if you ex- pect to be away, have a place to leave it, for it is discouraging to a boy that peddles in all serts of weath- er and serves his customers well, to find, at the week's end, he has not collected enough to pay for his papers, and this is what occurs about every week." This boy shows the real business spirit and that he has the making of 2 man in him. He writes well and may yet become an editor himself. EDITORIAL ‘NOTES. Arkansas is 73 years old, and it has to be admitted that it is no better than it should be. Every man who runs an auterdbbile is not the man of means he looks like when he goes whizzing past. The man who has tried to drown his troubles knows that they float like a cork. That is a useless endeavor. It does not matter how the neces- saries of life advance in price, the marriage license fee is ever the same. Happy thought for today: Those who do not have a tained purpose need not worry about tainted money. A boy regards the man who says that sawing wood is good exercise as enough of a lunatic to be sent to an asylum. It is apparent enough that a mul- {i-millfonaire does not always know what he has married, although he knows who she is. More than one graduate will get ap- plause the coming week for settling the labor problem, or for regulating the finances of the nation. The Chicago Blade proposes to let Americans see how Africa looks from a halloon. This will be a new kind of a picture show for daily readers. Even the men: who are most earn- estly in favor of the tarfff like to draw too many lines. They like to see money coming instead of going. A Chicago woman's husband was spoiled by bridge whist. Bridge whist dogs not spoil folks hereabouts. It only makes them all the more alert. Mrs. Gould was always affable ex- cept when she wab pickled in alcohol. This is evidence which should be made the ‘most of by temperance workers. Too many folks nowadays decline to cast their bread upon the waters unless they can have assurance that it will come floating back again as ple. Nothing is being said about “Where are you going this summer?” in Nor- wich. After the 250th anniversary is over it is time enough to talk about that. When legislative committees junket at public expense, it is noticeable how much more extravagant they are than when out on a lark by them- selves. The college professor who says that we shall all be wanting food a hundred years from now is mistaken. That is just what we shall not be asking for. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. Raising Salaries. _ Mr. Editor:—I notice in this morn- ing’s paper that the commgqn couneil has in view the raising of salaries, and it is very gratifying to good citizens and taxpayers that one alderman stands for righteousness, has shown his courage and ability from the start and wants to corduct the city business as any successful man conducts nis own business affairs. There is nothing wrong or unjust for the heads of these departments to ask for more salary, but would it be out of place for me to suggest that our new aiderman who was elected at the last election experi- ment in raising salaries at the Ash- land Cotton company, where he was recently made manager, and if the fixed charges grow under extravagant management and are satisfactory to the board then he might experiment at the city’s expense. At the last city meeting our es- teemed citizen. John McWilliams, when asked “Why wi Mr. Bogue's salary raised?” replied: “I have ,no apologies to make.” Why should he, when it is rumored that Mr. McWilllams has made $40,000 out of the city gas plant through his contracts and ought to be very grateful that he is in the swim, I ask you, Mr. Editor, is the gas com- mission following out a business prin- ciple in confining their work to one contractor, and he a member of the commission? Regarding Mr. Beckwith's salary of $800, how much time does he give that office? T have been told by those who actually know what time is given that the president receives five dollars for every hour of his service. It is the greatest injustice to pay the president of the water board $300 a year. Many of us have looked to the mayor to put a stop to this leakage; but in some re- spects we are disappointed. 5 TAXPAYER. Norwich, June 19, 1909.

FOR BRAIDERS. People who spend a great proportion of their days doing fancy stitches nat- urally seek at times to put the work upon things unmistakably useful. Lin- gerle comes in for a regular share of it, but at certain times of the year frocks clamor for recognition. Women who love this work cry out for fresh ideas. “What is there that has not been done by our friends and neighbors?" “Tell us something new to embroider!” And this time the something comes to hand in an oblig- ing model-—one of the long, loose frocks whose front panel is plain, ex- cept for a motif of embroidery just across the bust, and whose half-fitted side pieces are done in an all-over braiding pattern under the arms to the hem and extending round to the back panel. This panel in turn.is treated to a repetition of the slight motif em- broidery just at its top, across the shoulders. This braiding is distinctly new in its position, and is undoubtedly worth while on the white wash gown, which will not fade, or on the black net even- ing gown, which will be so serviceable as to repay the worker the full meas- ure of satisfaction. HANDLE CHILDREN CAREFULLY. Make children acquire the habit of saying hew-do-you-do and good-by without embarrassment, which con- stant practice eventually overcomes. If the child is shy, she must be gent- ly dealt with, but insistence will win her around. On no account allow a timid child to indulge her natural propensity. for shrinking away from people, as this gives her an awkwardness most diffi oult to overcome in later years, says an exchange. - Forward, pert children require as much attention as the shy ones, for they must be checked and restrained, which is more easily done if it is ex- plained to them that bad manners make them unlovable. For all young- sters like to be loved and will strive hard to improve when rewarded by affection. ‘Winsome manners make the plain- est children attractive, and parents owe it to them to make them so, re- membering, however, that they teach quite as much by example as by pre- cept. It is now obsolete for children to say “yes, ma’am” or “no, ma’am,” instead of which they are taught to reply, “no, mothen” or “yes' father,” or "yes, Mrs. Blank,” as the case may be. This is a most important point in good manners which cannot be too strongly insisted upon. NEEDLEWORK SUGGESTIONS. Paris Transfer Pattern No. 8002.
