JOHN MITCHELL'S ADDRESS. The American citizen will ind noth- ing to object to in John Mitchell's ad- dress, whether he is a union man or not. The right of every American cit- izen to trade where he pleases, when he pleases, or as he pleases, cannot be denied; neither can his right to speak for his own well-being, the well- being of his craft, community, state or country. For none of these things has union labor or unien labor leaders been assalled. The personal right to boy- cott is as well-established as the per- sonal right to trade; but, by organ- ized methods, to seek to force or in- duce others to boycott a business, or ! by conspiracy and advertisement to destroy & man’s or & firm's business, is another thing; as also is the defying of a court, The case of the Danbury hatters is a case in point, where a firm was blacklisted and pursued from state to state untll its business was destroyed from Danbury to San Francisco, a oriminal case because it lacks every element of right and justice. It rep- resents revenge carried to the extreme of injustice. Every citizen’s right to talk within the law and to act within the law is secure in this country; and we can go on trading where we please and saying what we please without let or hindrance. A TAXPAYERS LEAGUE. The formation of a taxpayers’ league in the city of Bridgeport for the pur- pose of having the tax funds more economically and satisfactorily ex- pended has met with organized op- position, but it s not likely to stay the movement if what The Telegram says is true, that “the taxpayers know too much about both parties to have confidence in either of them. They are thoroughly convineed that in city af- fairs the interests of Bridgeport must be set above all other considerations. “Buch a movement,” continues The Telegram, “will hurt no honest man. On the contrary it will give those who ave trying to do good work such an assurance of public support as thes have never before possessed. There is little encouragement for a man to give the people of his best if he is certain | that his good deeds will avail noth- | ing and that it is useless to plan any further ahead than the next election. One of the chief objects of the asso- clation would doubtless be to keep a geod man In office as long as he did good work and to get rid of an indo- | lent and incapable one with ‘all con- venient speed. “The business of entrusting import- ant offices which involve the expendi- { ture of theusands of dollars to men | who know nothing about the work in- | volved in them has in the judgment | of many citizens gone far enough. Both parties are so deeply engaged in it that it is useless to look for help from | them. A movement to give the tax- | payers of the eity some measure of | the control over their own business | which is their right would also benefit the non-taxpayers in the end. They also would doubtless prefer better and safer streets, more efficient city de- ! partments and the substitution of men who understand their callings for un skilled persons who have drummed u votes in corner groceries. An associa. tion open to all taxpayers without re- gard to race, sex, creed or social sta- | tion is surely broad enough to in- clude everybody who has a property interest in the city. It would be im- possible to divert it to political ends 1f a majority of the taxpayers belonged | to it, and the only way ome party could gain an advantage over another | weuld be by a steadfast course of good ‘behavior.” It is the inefficlency and unsatisfac- tery results here complained of that is making popular government by | commission and the new charters with & referendum by which an ineffi- clent public official may be removed by the people before his term of office explres. A REGRETTABLE INCIDENT. Had the cattle commissioner urged the passage of laws which would pre- vent the importation into Connecticut of diseased cattle, he would probably have been favored with such legisla- tion as he desired, by the general as- sembly. It is a lamentable state of affairs, indeed, when government in- .terveation is necessary in behalf of the health condition of a progressive state. Two years hence such cattle laws should be made as will make it impossible for Connecticut to become & dumping ground for rejected food animals—New Haven Palladium. 4 Perhaps. But the conservatism thut rules in such things Is “past finding ouf.” A man who owns a few cows and other cattle doesn’t want in- terference with his property—often- | times. And it is astonishing how | much sympathy with that sentiment prevalls in legislative action. Doubt- less Commissioner ‘Averill knows the possibilities of the situation as well as any other man and better than most others.—Bridgepert Standard. The Bulletin concurs with The Btandard in its opimiomns; but there is | no deubt that it always becomes a public official’ to register words of | warning and wise words of recommen- | dation whether the legislators will heed them or not. It is fully as im- portant that an officer should be con- scious of his duty and do it, as to know and understand the opposition to protection or progress. The acflon of the government is not complimént- ary to the state and the incident is as regrettable as it is mortitying. Tt is worthy of note that Sir Thom- as Lipton never says anything abeut the tea pusiness while doing this country, but few persons on earth know more about ft. ‘When the Hen..“Fingy” Connor was young and wild, no one thought that in his better days he would feel oblig- ed to go south after an ardueus cam- paign to find repose.

Her failures were applauded as |the help of a* successes by her father, or joked over as trifles. In the seriousness of her efforts she often failed to see the point. She would keep on trying, she dog- mirror as she adjusted her veil pre- paratory for the trip to town. These shopping trips were not, as one might suppose, pleasant breaks in the. mo- notony of her simple life. On the con- trary, each trip was a painful expe: ence. However, they were not with- her fund of knowledge of things in general, human nature included. Naturally she visited ” the shops tention when her father's carriage had left her at the doors.

To a woman forced to do business wholly on her husband's credit, a 25- cent piece looks better than a twenty- dollar gold plece does to a man. The Chicago News does not think that “a man who can be rescued from poverty by a legacy of $100,000 could have been much of a New Yorker.” A western judge has decided that an unkempt, prickly beard and a dir- ty collar furnish sufficient grounds for any wife who would seek a di- vorce. A Boston paper says that “with bounteous harvests and abundance in the garners, the cost of living goes up like a balloon released from cap- tivity.” The man who believes that prohibi- tion laws cannot be enforced belongs to the same class who believe that the ten commandments cannot be lived up to.

United States Minister to Denmark Has Confidence in Testimony of Rasmus- sen. An article on “The Witnesses for Dr. Cook,” by Maurice Francis Egan, American minister to Denmark, ap- pears in the November number of The Rosary Magazine. The article fs of interest for the quotations from Knud Rasmussen, the explorer, who exam- ined Eskimos of the tribe to which Dh. Cook’s companions belonged, and on' whose testimony the Danes of Gree: land relied in part in accepting the e: plorer'’s narrative. Rasmussen is ex- plicit as to the Eskimos’ knowledge of maps, which has been questioned by Dr. Cook's supporters in challenging the story which I-tecok-a-shoo and A- pel-lah told to Commander Year's par- ty. Rasmussen says the Eskimos are “yery experienced in finding their awherabouts by means of maps,” and tells of having the members of the tribe trace on his own map the route which I-took-a-shoo and A-pel-lah had said they followed with Dr. Cook. Of the polar dash, Rasmussen says: “The auxiliary sledges left pPr. Cook and his two companions only after they had reached the polar ice and there gteer=d north right over the ice. The two companions were then well aware that they went toward the pole. They knew the direction well from the countless expeditions of Peary, in which almost all the men of the tribe the two Eskimos told to Commander Peary, on the following grounds: “I do not know much about Peary’s report except that he insists that Cook has not been far from land. And that is nonsense. If the expedition had only been a few days’ journey from land, why should they have come to Cape Sparbo for the winter? And the ex- pedition has been there. One of the Gireenlaneds knew the place very well. This is to me a very important point, which to the highest degree has con- firmed my secure belief in Dr. Cook.” A Golden Rule Failure.
