Norwich, July 26, 1909. d JUHN McWILLIAMS, GILBERT S. RAYMOND, EDWIN A. Washington, Oct. 20<~Drastic meas- ures, including the exclusion of im- portations from any country unjustly discriminating against this country, might be found necessary by the pres- ident in the event that it should be re- garded necessary for this country to adopt retaliatory tariff measures against France. While so far tiis government has received no official information of the intention of France to operate a maximum tariff against this country upon the termination—on October 31—of the commercial agree- ment, officials here admit there is some danger of the two countries, for a time at least, applying their maxi- mum rates against eac hother. e Exclusion Power. The exclusion power, which Presi- dens Taft might find it necessary to invoke during the period until March 31 next, when the maximum tariff law could he brought into operation, is furnished in section five of the tariff act of August 30, 18%0. This section empowers the president, in case Am- erican goods are unjustly discriminat- ed against by any country, absolutely to prohibit the importation into the United States from that country of any article he may see fit to name. The paragraph reads as follows “That Wwhenever the president shall INTERNATIONAL SILVER CO. Has Had Biggest Year in Its History —Encouraging Outlook. | The year 1909 will go down in the history’ of Meriden's greatest manu- facturing concern, the International Silver company, as the banner year of its history, says a Meriden exchange. his is evidence that the era of pros- perity so long hoped for by the people of Meriden, has arrived and the out- look is that it has come to stay, The International Silver company a greater volume of pusiness s r than ever before since it was organized. Its numerous factories have been kept busy all the time and are now busier than ever before. While it is true that some depart- ments were on short time during the carly part of the year, the general business of the company was very large. President George H. Wilcox, Friday evening, said: “We have done more business than in any given year. Iam not able to state figures or give the percentage of increases, but the vol- ume of husiness done by the company has been unusually large. “The outlook for the winter is very bright. Tt now appears as if we would be kept hustling all the time. Orders continue to come in and there is every reason to believe that the excellent business of the vear thus far will be continu The 4ra of prosperity has arrived. Are You Hoping for an Office? _In ajmost every factory in the city there are doubtlcss many workingmer. who are eagerly considering whether by some chance of politics they can manage to obtain nomiaations for some of the city offices which look 80 inviting to outsiders. They have heard that the hours in such offices are short and the labors light. The salaries seem large when compared with an ordinary day's wages and there ars alw s rumors of extra emolument which the wise may contrive to obtair. Many men are thus tempted to aban- don their niodding trades with their dull certainties for the imagined dig- nities and desperate chances of po- litical lite. The secrets of that especial prison house are rarely told, but they ars worth the telling. The light work and short hours demoralize most men who have been accustomed to the usual rules of labor, and if at the end of a vear or two ‘they are driven out of office by political changes they have not only lost their footing in the bus ness in which they were formerly en gaged, but they have also become unfit for the restrictions and_hardships of regular occupations. Neitber have they enjoyed the full benefit of. the salaries which looked so large in an- ticipation. They find their office doors beset with persons who are anxious to share their good fortune. Half the population seems to have helped their election or appointment and desires pecuniary recognition therefor, Every organization great or small which gives an_entertainment rushes to them with tickets to sell and threatens vengeance if the money is not forthcoming. All who desire subscriptions for anything whatever regard the unhappy office- holder as a shining mark. He becomes an involuntary contirbutor to nearly every enterprise m the city. The extra emoluments either fail to materialize or they are only to be ob- tained upon terms which an honorable man must reject. The officeholder speedily learns that there is no such thing as “Nonest graft.” Unless he is of an incredibly sanguine temperament he soon decides that it is vain to at- t2mpt to commend himself to the pub- doing his duty. There are 1 persons who would consider it 1 siest way lo shorten his term of office. In brief, any citizen who can find other emplovment is foolish, to seek yaid political offices.—Bridgeport Telegram. Colonel Eaton’s Great Institution. Surely Colonel Eaton has done the state a service and the people can congratulate him on his visit to ¢hurch and its effects. When next he goes to Hartford he can call the boys together at a famous inn and tell them of his magnificent reception. One can im- agine “Ed” would take it all seriously and that even J. Henry would be wili- ing to endorse it with enthusiasm, but “Andy” might have the smile en that is childlike and bland. Yet, great is the lobby, great is the institution that killed the public utili- ties commission bill because it would hurt its calling; great is the Institu- tion that juggled with the electric light bill, that throttled the employers’ lia- bility act, that strangled the bill to re- meve the iniquitous limit on damages; great, we say again, is the institution and its prophets which supported ‘ev- ery lax liquor law and endeavored to Xill every one at all restrictive, Sure- ly it is grand and the people and the newspapers and the reformers are all fools not to have found it out until Colonel “Bob” went to church.— Bridgepost Post. Lest in Scriptures. It is more amusing than serious that two prominent men, both dis- tinguished ‘graduates of Yale, Presi- dent Taft and Otto T. Bannard, ean- dicate for wayor of New York, should have misquoted in the same week, & familiar. biblical saying. Mr. Bannard said: “The man who controls his temper is better than he who rules a city.” He was rebuked by an asso- ciate, and a Bible stralghtway added to the campaign equipment. Presi- dent Taft yesterday preached in Fresno, Cal, from the text, quoted from memory: “He who conquereth himself is greater than he who taketh a city.,” Th e real words are. “He that ruleth his spirit ls better than he that taketh & clty."—~Waterbury Am- erican. Influence of Environment. TALK OF TARIFF President Taft May Adopt Dmfih Measures Against France if that Country Carries Out Its Intentions RETALIATION ed that unjust discriminations are by or under the autherity of any foreign state against the im- portation to or sale in such foreign state of any product of the United §t)l61.. he may direct that such prod- uct of such foreign state so discrim- Imt::‘ against any product of the Uni States as he may deem proper shall be excluded from importation to the United States; and in such case he shall make proclamation of his di- rection in the premi: and therein name the time when such direction against importation shall take effect, and after such date the importation of the articles named in such proclama- tion shall be unlawful, The president may at any time revise, modify, ter- minate or renew any such direction, as in his opinion the public interest may require.” Extremely Harmful to Both Countries. The application of the maximum rates provided for in the Payne-Al- drich bill to French goods would un- doubtedly very materially reduce our importations from that country and the same would be true of -France should she apply her maximum rate to American goods. The result there- 1o to both countries would be extreme- Iy barmful. NATIVE OF WETHERSFIELD. Promotion of Benjamin Adams in New York Public Library.

A Story of Governor Lilley. On Monday evening while the city election was in progress, the New Ha- ven Union prinied an appeal against grumbling and fault-finding, however the vote turned. It sald in substance that the campaign up to that time had ‘een clean, though sharp; that there had been no personal abuse and that no one should allow his feelings to get the better of him if he found the decision _different from what he had hoped. In connection with this it told ’the following story of Governor Lil- ey : “We recall to mind the act of the late Gov. George L. Lilley during the last gubernatorial campaign. Aft- er he had voted, the first thing he did was to call his secretery to him and dictate a message of congratula- tion to his opponent, whick he sealed up and ordered mailed if he (Lilley) were defeated. When asked why he did this and whether it indicated that he thought he would be defeated, Mr. Lilley replied in his characteristically kind way: ‘No! I expect to win, but you never can tell. Now. this has been a very bitter campaign and while I have had no part in the personali- ties that have been indulged in, and regret. exceedingly that phase of the election, T do not want to carry this thing beyond today. So, before the result may sour my feellngs in this respect, before I know what happens, 1 want to dictate a lettér to my [ ponent and I want it to contain ry best sentiments, to mirror my pres- ent good Intentions, and, win or lose, I want you to send it to him, no mat- ter what anybolly says.’” This was a sound sentiment worth recalling by everyone' who enters as leader or follower into any political contest.—Hartford Times. Grange Fairs. The recent fair held by the grange in the town of New Lebanon, an an- nual event, unlike any other in Co- lumbia_county, attracted widespread attention. While it is, to a certain extent, fashioned after the average county fair, vet theré is sufficient dif- ference to render it unique. The whole souled interest on the part of the participants is what has brought ahout Success. They place on exhi- bition the products of. their fields, gardens, dairies, schools, etc., not be- cause of any hope of financial re- ward, inasmuch as no cash premiums are paid, but because of a pride in their town and their organization, and also because of desire t6 show to the public the pessibilities along the lines mentioned. Such events as these are valuable in_more ways than ome. The good- natured competition brings out latent talents in the young people of the community, it induces effort on the part of the farmer or the villager to raise something just a shade better than his neighbor has and the pros. pect of receiving one of the premium ribbons will inspire the housewife to do her very best along culinary or hor- ticultural lines. The honor which goes with the biue or red ribbon is all the competitors expect, all they de- sire. The 'grange fair is interestin~ en- tertaining, educational—Chatham (2 Y.) Courier. Boss Brayton on Connecticut. Cennecticut, a state where not a three-fifths or a three-fourths vote is necessary to overtirow a veto, but a majority vote. Connecticut, one of the best’ gov- erned states in the union.—Charles R. Brayton. Connecticut's faflure to give its gov- ernor a real veto power is much to its discredit. In this respect it lags be- hind the progressive, almost the uni- versal, American practice. It would be much better for Rhode Island to follow the example of New York and Massa- chusetts—of the United States of America, indeed—than to put in the hands of its chief magistrate a puny authority such as the executive at Hartford wields. 1t Connecticut is one of the best governed states in the union, what is there left for sincere wishers for good government to work and hope for?

Danbury The Danbury News say. Postmaster A. &'x'.m has been fig- uring up the unt of business that | the Danbury did during the week of the Danbury fair and finds that the sale of postage stamps during that time amounted to about $2,000. This indicates that a great many let- ters were mailed at the Danbury post- office during the week of the fair. ‘As regards the number of pieces of mail matter, probably there were more postcards _than anything else. The Danbury office sold 67,000 one cent pos- tage stamps during the Danbury fair season, and that indicates that nearly if not quite 67,000 postcards were ‘sent out «from Danbury during that time. This would be fully half of the number of pieces of matter hailed, as can easily be reckoned. The postage on 67,000 postcards would be 670. Taken from a total of $2,000 sal there would be $1,330 to be accounted for in other postage, and figuring the next possible smallest amount for each individual piece would provide for not quite 670 pleces. The postcard business of the Dan- bury postoffice during the week of the Danbury fair is greater even than that of the Christmas holidays. Violin Made of Toothpicks. Three thousand three hundred and soventy-four dollars is the sum asked for a violin which is constructed of ex- actly that number of white birchwood toothpicks. This unique musical in- strument is the handiwork of Thomas Atkinson, genius and expert maker of freak articles. Mr. Atkinson lives in Greensfork. Ind. The violin, which is wag more than a year in completing, has been tested by musicians and prohounced high grade in every respect. Its quality of tone is seldom surpassed. Its lines are grace- ful and the finish perfect. In the construction of this violin Mr. Atkinson first made a frame, or mold, patterned after a world famous instru= ment. It was so constructed that it could be picked to pleces and removed from the completed instrument through the openings. The toothpicks were all ra!h!oned by hand to fit the particular place in which they were to lie. When the violin was completed no one could tell from the outside appearance that it was made of so many tiny bits. Many of the picks were so tiny they could scarcely be seen by the naked | eye. When tested by musicians who | knew the unique instrument was de- red to be extremely valuable for its qulilies, apart from its pecuilar con- struction. The fnstrument Is to be sent to New | York, where it will be given every test by skilled musicians. If the ver- dict be favorable Mr. Atkinson will immediately begin another, on the or- der of a world famous violinist—The | Hagerstown,. Ind., Dispatch. | Pleased With E. J. Hill's Suggestion. Congressman Hill was undoubtedly in earnest when he advised our man- ufacturers to go after the Philippine trade, and as a result of the visit of the comgressman and Colonel Colton steps will be taken to introduce made- in-Bridgeport goods in the far off isl- ands. Bridgeport and the state have good rkason to feel well satisfled to have so able and far-seeing a friend as Con- gressman Hill, who can be depended upon to be on the job all of the time. His good offices in securing the pres- ence of Colonel Colton, who soon goes to Porto Rico as its governor, are ap- preciated, as the true status of the trade situation was brought to the at- tention of the manufacturers in a most convincing and authoritative way.— New Bedford Standard, Helping Themselves. The crusade against the great white plague is on in earnest and is being conducted along lines that promise to give significant results. It is worth noting that nine fraternal societies, with a membership of three million: and three international labor unions, with a membership of over 100,000, have enlisted in the service. The cam- paign is primarily one of prevention, though of course a#l possible assistance is given the afflicted. It is one of the most encouraging facts of the day that aside from those in the orders men- tioned, are working together along sci- entific and sensible lines to lessen the ravages of the greatest scourge of modern times. Much may be expected from the determined efforts now under way.—Bristol Press. Abuse of Franking Privile The charge has been made that the treasury is forced to spend several millions yearly in settling bills for the transportation of mail despatched by public officials in the executive branches of the government and by members of the house and senate. If an approximately correct idea can be formed as to the real cost of this prac- tice, a sound basis will be furnished for efforts to curb abuses which un- doubtedly accompany it. The assertion that the franking priv- flege should be -abolished outright seems to sweeping. Within certain limits—which ought to be rigidly de- fined—it is probably legitimate. But it has plainly been carried to an ex- treme in the hundreds of tons of mail which now go forth each year, and it should be signally curtailed.—Philadel- phia Evening Bulletin, An Image with Clay Feet. Mr. Taft is for a subsidized mer- chant marine. There is plenty to be said in favor of it, and it is all peri- odically said.

This rebellion, which has convulsed the nation for four vears, threatened the union, and caused such sacrifice of blood and treasure, may be traced in a great degree to the diseased imagi- nation .of certain South Carolina gen- tlemen, who some 30 or 40 ‘years since studied Scott’s novels, and - fancied themselves cavaliers, imbued with chivalry, a superior_class, not born to labor, but to comimand, brave be- yond 'mankind generally, more intel- lectual, more generous, more hospita- ble, more liberal than others, Such of their countrymen as did not own slaves, and who labored with their own hands, who depended on their ex- ertions for a livelihood, who were me- chanics, traders and tillers of the soil were, in_their estimation, inferiors who ‘would not fight, were religlous and would not gamble, moral and would not countenance duelling, were serious and minded their own busi- ness, economical and thrifty which -was denounced as mean and miserly. Hence the chivalrous Carolinian af- fected to, and actually did finally, hold the Yankee in contempt. On the other hand, the Yankees and the nerth generally underestimated the energy and enduring qualities of the southern people- who were slave own- ers. It was believed they were effem- inate idlers, living on the toil and la- bors of others, who themselves could endure no hardships such as (are) in- dispensable to soldiers in the fleld. It was_also believed that a civil war would, inevitably, lead to servile in- surrection, and that the slave owners would have their hands full to keep the slaves in_subjection after hostili- ties began. Experience has corrected these misconceptions in each section. —Diary of Gideon Welles in the At- lantic Monthly. The Shooting of Ferrer. The refusal of the king of Spain to spare the life of Prof. Francisco Fer- rer, the convicted anarchist, is the most courageous act of the relgn of thig young man. ‘¥or no doubt it was through fear of the consequences to himself that many influential persons begged Alfonso not to let justice take its course. He is known to be a fa- telist. “They will get me some time, is the way he has been quoted as put* ting it. But he does not propose to be hampered by that consideration. Hence his delight in evading the guards who find it difficult to keep an eye on him. Ferrer was @ man of distinction and learning. He took his chance, with the result that he had to face a plat- oon of infantry the other morning. He must have realized that he was but paying a penalty for which he had bargained. He had openly.incited the insurrection at Barcelona. Such dis- turbances are not to be put down with rose water. Upder the circumstances the appeal to the king’s generosity and chivalry was absurd. The injury had been done to the state, not to him, as its head. But, as its head, it was his duty to keep his hands off.—New York Evening Sun. The Veto for Little Rhody. Rhode Island votes at the coming election upon a_constitutional amend- ment that would confer on the gov- ernor the veto power. The state that runs the United States government through its senior senator is not very progressive in many respects. It fol- erates an antique franchise system which few other states in the union would endure. Political conditions ase admittedly bad and might be improved were the governor given the authority to check possible indiscretions by the legislature. Ohio is one of the recent states to adopt the veto power, and it has proved to be what its advocates claim- ed for it, a_damper on improper leg- islation. ‘While the acts vetbed have been comparatively few, the knowl- edge that the governor had the power has doubtless exerted a curbing ins fluence upon the legislative branch of the government.
