GOING AT THE RATE OF 100 A DAY In his address at Washington on Baturday at the unveiling of a memo- rial to Dr. Benjamin Frankiin Ste- phenson, the founder of the Grand Army of the Republic, President Taft had some nice things to say of the weterans of the eivil war, whose ranks are being depleted at the rate of 100 @ day at the present time. These quotations from his address will in- terest the veterans in this vicinity: “When men at the formative period in life—from 13 to 22—are associated. in any work, whether it be in college, society, church, or otherwise, they carry with them afterward the fond- est memories and assoclations, be- cause they have passed through a com- mon mould. But how much greater must be the bond of union between men who for four years passed through the dangers of the Civil war; those who survived thinking of the tender memories of those who gave up their lives, and carrying with them the sweet associations and the stories of courage. I can conceive no bond tronger than that which united the men who fought.in the Grand Army, and it was to the credit of the founder of the Grand Army of the Republic that he saw the solid basis upon which such tructure could be erected. e b e St i ‘The Grand Army of the Republic 15 most useful in this: Representing the men who fought in the Civil war, 4t can authoritatively teach forgetful- ness of the bitterness which existed during the war, and I am glad to say that while that bitterness may in a few fnstances obtain, you will never find it 1o exist between the men who actually exposed their lives. The union of the two sections has been moulded strong- 1y by meetings between the blue and the gray which ought to occur as often as possible.” 3. Murray BRANDEGEE BATTLING THE LEADERS. ‘While the newspaper reports of the proceedings of congress do not go in- to much detail, a perusal of the Con- gressional Record shows that Senator Brandegee in running debate in the wenate over the tariff bill is holding his own with the leading statesmen of that distinguished body. His pointed questions aimed at the framers of the bill, asking them for a definition of the language employed in the amend- ment taxing corporations put all the #enators on their mettle when they attempted to give a satisfactory an- ewer—Stamford Bulletin. Senator Brandegee lacks neither tal- ent,, capacity nor force, He has at heart the interests of his constituents and doés not desire to put a burde® upon our industries unless there is a good reason for it. There is no doubt about fhis abllity to cope with the leadets of the senate in debate and no question fears are natural enough; not likely that assassins are ing Taft, and that he ls const: imminent peril of losing his life. There was nothing happened in Nor- wich which called for a sensation, for had an assassin been where this ¢it- izen was seen, that which was feared- would certainly have occurred. ey Ty e THE IMPENDING STRUGGLE. This week is to see the crisis of the battle which since February has heen ‘waged between the electric lighting in- terests of the state and the Jarge num- ber of independent producers of elée- tricity. The judlciary committee, which has had the various bills dealing with the matter b2fore it, 18 to make a final report and the nate will be the scene of the real battle. A VI campaign’ has been made for the en- tire repeal of thé law which prohjbits the manufacture of electricity for sale. Forceful arguments have been put for- ward in favor of & general regeal. It will be put up to the legislature to make the final decision this week. Until May, very few, except electric light company officers knew that there was a bill which prevented the private citizen from making electricity and selling it to his next-door mneighbor. port company New Haven fleld, and one of its for- mer customers, the matter came be- fore the legislature and then became known all over the state. The Bridge- port company tried by amending the law, known as section 3,916, to still further tie down its privileges and to prevent any company from doing any- thing which it was not specially in- cotporated to do. This move raised such a howl that two of the proposed bills were with- drawn. The third, which provided for an injunction against the maker who tried to sell electricity, would alsd have been withdrawn if the people who had been attacked by the Bridge- port company agreed. But they re. fused and instead made a fight for the repeal of the law. In this fight they were backed by the state business men's association, which includes members in practically every town and city. There were lively hearings be- fore the judiciary committee, and it has been expected for several weeks that a report would go in disposing of the question. It has been officially announced that there would be only one report; that report in favor of the repeal of the law. But there has been a hjtch. Now the committee is understood to be minded to send in a report amending the law in such a way that a sop will be given to the powerful electric in- terests. They will be slightly punish- ed; not given the sound spanking that many persons think is their due. The present law is to be amended, but no person will have the right to make electricity and sell it to any other per- son or firm outside the block in which his plant is located, even though he is ready to sell it to that meighbor for less than the chartered company will. In other words, the law 1s to be left in such shape that a man cannot buy in the best market, but must buy from a company designated by the state. The state business men's association through its committee declares that such an act is not fair. It claims that the present law should be repealed. It points out that no other state in the union has such an unfair law upon its books. It declares that the only justi- fication advanced by the electric com- panies for the present law fs that it protects them; that to repeal it would interfere with their business. Business, of course, in this case, means simply profits. Another point made is that the law applies only to towns of over 15,000 people. 1t is legal to do in a small town what is unlawful in a large one. And the business men ask pertinently: “Has the good old state of Connecticut one law for a part of its people and another law for the rest?” But the matter comes up before the senate this week. The senate will have a chance to disprove the popular Delief that it is a corporation-con- trolled body. It can disprove that belief by voting squarely for repeal of the present law. If the report went to the hous there 1§ confident prediction that re- peal would be voted. But in the sen- ate! Well, all eves are on the senate. EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Bulletin has received from sev- eral readers reprints of the sensational #story about the man with a pistol who was looking for Taft while here on the 5th, with requests to print. The Bulletin knows the whole story, and all the persons concerned except the stranger with the pistol in his inside coat pocket. The Bulletin does not believe there was any one in Norwich on July 5th who contemplated assaulting the pres- tdent. It was natural that men should have weapons with them on that day, and this stranger who created such a furore with his pisto] was right in front of the grand stand at Chelsea parade, and had an opportunity to have used it fatally had that been his purpose. As he made no attempt to use it, there is no regson to suspect an assassin.

Revision of%the Tariff. Mr. Editor:—The old something like this: “Of all the mighty nations, in the east or in the west, This glorious Yankee nation greatest and the best: ‘We have for all creation and our ban- ner is unfurled, Here's a general invitation to the peo- ple of the world. Then come along, come along, make no delay, Come from every nation, come from every way. Our lands they are broad enough and don’t you be alarmed, For Uncle Sam is rich enough to give us all a farm. ‘When you stop and think of it for a little while it seems strange that our congressmen should spend 8o much time playing the daby aot. Yes, it is true, ‘this is the greatest nation on earth, but as for being the best, there might be a difference of opinion as to the meaning of best, and for whom it is the best. Give the people, the wealth producers, an opportunity, and they can feed and clothe the world. Congress is now and has been for a number of weeks discussing the tariff, the baby act. In proper language they are Jaboring to revise the tars What riff are they trying to revise the Dingley tariff, of course; other fariff have we? What is the trouble about this tarift that has given the country such prosperity for the past ten years that it is necessary to revige it? Are the rates too high? If ®0, why not reduce them? Are they 100 low? If 8o, why not increase them? 1t they are just right then leave it alone and not waste any time over it. According to the best evidence pro- duced so far it was the opinion of both parties that the tariff should be re. vised downward. The republican y in their platform declared it should be revised. The democratic platform de. clared for a revision. Mr. Taft in his Speeches sald it should be revised downwards mostly. The democratic platform declared that certain things should come In free of duty. When the vote took place on those certain article which they sald should come in free 18 of the democratic senators voted with Senator Aldrich. It is said “Wise men change their minds, but fools never do.” There is one question I would like to have some one answer, and that is who first discov- ered that the Dingley tariff needed re- vising? 0 sald the rates were too high or too lo Some one must have shouted “Fire!” and rung in an alarm. ‘Who is regponsible for this false alarm? Almoat everybody that knows nothing about tariff has praised the Dingley tariff for doing good work and produc- ing prosperity for everybody.: Why, then, should such a fuss be made over it at this time? It is true some people (very wise (?) people) have an idea that the little flurry of “cold chills” in October, 1907, was caused by the Ding- ley tariff. Those people have another guess coming. The Dingley tariff had 7o more to do with it than the devil has to do with holy water. But sup- pose it did have a tendency to cause the panic, it must have been because the tariff ratex were too high. This must be because both parties 86 declared.

If this be true, then of course if hi tarift brought the panic of 1907, it is reasonable to sup- pose that a higher tariff will dring an- other. The title of the Aldrich bill to accomplish three distinct things. The first is to increase the government revenud, to gét more money for the vernment. This cannot be done un- ess the ‘e brought in and the duty paid on them. The second is to protect the workingmen against the pauper labor ‘made goods. Now, if the goods are brought in eand the gov- ernment gets the duty, the money, then the first thing has been accom- plished, viz., the revenue. Now, how about the second. The goods are here, the government has its revenue, and these goods come in competition with the goods made by the American workingman. Will some one poirt out where and how his protection comes in? If the goods do not come in, “our” workingman will have to supply the same quantity as was kept out by the high tariff. This will be just so much extra over and above what he would have made, if the foreign goods had come in and the government hal received the revenue. The government getting revenue on imported goods,and protecting (?) “ou ‘workingmen against pauper labor made goods is like trying to ride two horses at the same time, each going in a different direction. It is very doubtful if it can be done without a split, and that is what it looks like now, in the senate. The third thing is to guarantee to the manufacturers “a reasonable profit on the capital invested.” Some people are 80 uncharitable as to call this “pa- ternalism.” This 18 what we call the “baby act.” The pretense is made that this is all done for the protection of the “needy earner. The “baby act” consists in taking care of the “industries” of “the greatest na- tion on the face of the earth.” Only think of it. A giant afraid of a “bogy man,” 11d away someéwhere, waylaying, to pounce on this “great giant.” Con sider the absurdity of the idea of pro- tecting the workingmen Erom competi- tion with the “pauper labor” made goods of the “bogy man,” and then for these same protected manufacturers to nd shipioads of these ‘“protected 0ds” over to the “bogy man” and sell them to the r labor of Yur- rup,” for less than they are sold for here. Just sit down and think over that proposition for a few moments, and then say it is not a “baby act” A litle further, if you iplease. If it be true, that the tariff is to keep out goods that are cheaper (in price) than our own goods, how can we expect to sell our goods to them for less than they can buy their own goods for? Just think it over. Is not the main object, then, to ” by law, “a reason- able for the manufacturer, re- gardless of the “needy bread winner?” Gentlemen, there is “a cat” under the tariff “meal’ J.

No place on the map is too remote for the Elks to se- lect as & meeting place. I've run across these jolly fellows on the road many times and the meals they can eat and the tips they pass around fill my soul with envy. I recall last fall seeing four of them pay a check for $16 on a diner, and the one who paid zave the waiter a $2 tip. The con- ductor of the car, who had given’ the four his_personal attention, could mot hide a look of disappointment when the waiter got it all, but sunshine came when one of the excursionits called him to the table, produced a $10 bill, and asked him if he could change it. ow, that put the conductor in a trying position.
