Brandegee, as a member of the Isthmian canal commis- sion, has been to Panama, looking over the work, and has returned home in time to join in the ‘Thanksgiving festivities. He was very much pleas- ed with the work done and the bright prospects for its completion in five years’ time. He said that the work of sanitation had shown wonderful prog- ress, evidenced pointedly by the driv- ing out of the mosquito pest in many places where that task had seemed atmost hopeless.

A young New York woman physician has found a way to dém- onstrate it without asking permission of the state. Dr. Louise Robinoviteh, a Russian woman, put a rabbit and a dog to death by the electric current and there seemed to be no doubt about the fatal energy of the electricity ap- plied, for doctors and other experts present made all the tests usual in such cases and formally pronounced | the animals dead. Then the young | woman applied an intermittent cur- | rent of low voltage, which set up | “rhythmic excitation” of the muscles of the heart and lungs, and in a few minutes the animals were alive again and seemingly uninjured. This marks & decided advance in our knowledge of electricity, and if convicts are barred from its use, it will prove of advantage to those ac- cidentally overcome by the fluid while at work upon electrical apparatus. A LOUD CALL FOR REFORM. The football season closes tomorrow and the record blotted with 30 funer- als and two hundred ambulance calls in a short six weeks does not look well and is condemned by the press of the country. A call is being made for reform in both our great national games. It is claimed brute forece is getting into baseball through blocking and the use | of spikes and the Philadelphia Times says that the national baseball com- mission and its subsidiary bodies must grapple with the trend toward rowdy- ism in the great summer game or more players will be Injured by spikes and Pblocking than ever before in baseball. It is said for a truth that baseball games do mot depemd for attractive- ness upon the laceration and conse- quent incapacity of valuable players; that football is not made more enjoy- able through employment of the am- bulance and the hearse as adjuncts to the game. President Ban Johnson of the Amer. fcan league, and a number of owners of the baseball teams have declared against the wearing of spikes. Heads of great colleges and universities are joining in a demand for a modification of football rules. It Is to be hoped that the savage features of these national' sports will be eliminated, for they degrade them | and are unnecessary. EDITORIAL NOTES. Tt is a slow city in which the Y. M. { C.

Of these coccidia the Springfleld Re- publican says: “It is one of the lowest forms of an- imal life and appears to be kin to the germe of malaria and hydrophobias “These coccidia are taken up with the food and drink of the fowl. Up- on entering its new home the germ divides into four minute pointed bod- ies; then into the true infective ele- ments, eight in number, called spor- ozoiles, which begin at once to raise | large familles, that penetrate the in- | testines and in time kill the bird. No antidode which will kill the coccidia without also killing the turkey has yet been discovered. A fatal result is al- most’ inevitable where thesge para- sites find lodgment, and prevention is the only solution. This, of course, is very difficult, and can only be secured by keeping the fowls upon wide ranges of fresh, uninfected territory.” The time is likely to arrive when | these germs will be controllable and | the turkey industry be again made§ profitable. MUNICIPAL FRONT DOORS. Various citles in Vermont are tak- ing a thought to their front-door en- trances via the lines of the railroads. ‘We should dislike to have an opinion formed of Barre by this means, for the North-Barre front door is not en- tirely to the liking of those with a desire for the beautiful, = It does give an indication that Barre is a busy ‘ community,’ at any rate. Montpelier furnishes a good illustration of an at- tractive front door to have, -because one of the finest sectiens of the city lies just mcross the Winoeski river from the railroad track, with some of the most imposing buildings of the city, Including the State house, the National A Life building and several large and handsome residences. How- ever, the approach from the line of the Montpelier & Wells Riyer railroad is not so good; and the conditions are much as they are in North Barre, and hard to improve upon, because of the location there of a great many granite plants. Still, as between beauty and buseiness, give us business.—Barre Times. The first impression a stranger gets of a city stays with him the longest and if the first evidences he sees are cleanliness and industry he feels that the place is inviting to do business in or live In; but if the entrance to the city is disfigured with filth, salpons, and bagnies, to say nething of unat- tractive businesses, he tells any in- quirer that such a city is a good place to keep away frem. A city extra-haz- erdous to developing manhond is cer- tainly against thrift. It is a good thing that some of thess New England cities are becoming ashamed of their approaches. A Mary Ann frent with a Queen Anne behind is a reverse in the official axe. It doesn’t disturb him to see the heads fall. Governor Fort of New Jersey says that golf and automobiles are taking from churcH attendance on Sunday lots of desirable folks. The Red Cross holiday stamp is be- Ing saluted by the press of the coun- try and commended to the people as the foe to tuberculosis. The papers of the country that are lending support to the cause of the insurgent republicans are charged with using “canned editorials.” Did Rhode Island turkeys ever be- fore see the time when they were commanding thirty-eight cents a pound upon their native heath. A California man traveled 190,000 miles while courting his wife, and now she is his and can walk a few thou- sand miles in waiting upon him. Happy thought for today: People who spend too much time trying to be miserable seldom think that they ean be thankful that life is no worse for them, The Massachusetts authorities are taking the licenses away from automo- bile drivers who get into the courts for violations of law. That will cure the trouble. ‘Why should we not believe in uni- formity of law? __A southern exchange says that in Virginia a man gets three years for homicide and in Kentucky, three drinks. ‘The Standard Oil company @ppears to be pleased to show that it has a few ministers and other respectable people among its stockholders. They must be ashamed of it. A Kansas paper wants to know why boys in the pibliec schools should not be taught to button four or five small buttons a minute. That might make more useful husbands of them. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. The Money Question. Mr. Editor: I suppose there can be no harm in my having a word to say on the money question, as I see that Senator Nelson W, Aldrich has started out to “revise the system.” It may be a surprise to a great many people that Mr. Aldrich should attempt to “revise” or settle a question that “has been set- tled for all time,” so many times in the past. ‘We have been told repeatedly (pub- licly) that “our present banking sys- tem is the bhest the world has ever known.” This being true, why does not Senator Aldrich “let well enough alone?” In Ris speech at Chicago the other night he gave us to understand that he and the commission are search- ing for “legislative remedies for the defects and weaknesses of our curren- cy and monetary systems.” He also informs us “we have had, in this coun- try, troubles and contentions over the charscter and volume of our circulat- every sense of the word and ever will oe, Hast Willlamsburg, L. 1., in ten years has come te be a place of 75,000 in- abitants, and is pointed out as ene of e hoom towns of the country, ing medium” eince the feundation of the government. If this be true, it is evident it was wrong when first established. It is also evident that it has been wrong all the way through, judging by the num- ber of times it *has beenisettied.”'Tt is also very euident that it is radically “There ‘goes ¥ Si on,” lald‘ the blacksmith, ‘poiniting 0. & passing w:th. “I reckon he's lookin’ for a Lookin’ fer @ job has to be a chronic condition w ed Snow- son,” said old Dave des as he lit his pipe at the forge. “Findin’ jobs is jest as chronic with him,” spid the blacksmith. “He finds io‘ba an’ loses them so rapid that he s a job in th' air all the time, like a feller huskin’ corn in the field.”. “What ails Jed, anyhow ?” asked old Dave. “He looks all right an' talks like a sensible feller enough “He's like old Pop Misner's razor,” said the blacksmjth. “He looks fine in repose, but he's no good in action.” “He’s had a powerful wide fleld of experience for a lad,” said old Dave. “He has tried his hand at about every trade an’ profession,” said the blacksmith, “an’ he's made a fizzle of every blamed thing he’s gone at, He ‘won't take time to learn a trade or a business before he wants to work at it an’ draw wages., “Jed’s strong card‘is references. He's got a lot of relations, all well- fixed people, an’ they dig up refer- ences for Jed whenever he wants to tackle a nmew line of business, which is about every two weeks. : “He'll go into a bank, an’ after springin’ his references he'll get on as a clerk. Then when it turns out that he ain’t got the ability or the educa- tion to tally for a thrashin’ machine, there is hard feelin’ an’ Jed is pushed through the swingin’ doors. “He got a job night watchin’ for a big factory one time. He pulled the watch boxes fajthfully up to 9 o’clock, then he locked himself up in the office an’ went so sound asleep that when a man from the watchmen’s headquarters come over to see what ailed him thet he didn’t pull the boxes the man had to get the fire depart- ment to help wake Jed an’ get him on his feet again.” “I heard he got a good job drivin® wrong now, else Senator Aldrich would not be devoting his time in trying to revise it, and “secure the adoption of a monetary stem the wisest and best the world has seen.” Does any one doubt this last statement in face of the recent revision of the tariff, which Mr. Taft is quoted as saying “is the best tariff iaw ever given to the people by congress” Senator Aldrich appears to think there are two “chief questions” and that one of them is more import- ant than the other. At first, his opin- ion was that “note issue was the more important of the two,” * ¢ * “that is to say, who should have the right to issue bank notes, upon what condi- tions they should be issued, and the kind of security to be required.” But he changed his mind, and concludes thot the issuing of bank notes is not the most important of the two. He now considers "an efficient organiza- tion of the credit and banking system of the country as much more import- ant.” That is to say, it is of secondary importance whether congress creates the bank notes and hands them over the banks, or whether congress shall grant the privilege to the banks to 1te them, themselves, the main and important point is for the banks to secure the special privilege of furnish- si ing the 1 ss and labor of the coun- try with ba notes, as a substitute for money, which ccngress alone has the power to create. His Important point : “most important,” that ficient o Z3 safe for th> holders of the bank issues. That i what the national bank bills are now, perfectly safe to the holders, and why? Because the government guaranfees them and makes them good. A question: Congress makes the bank notes good; why cannot congress make the government's own issue just as good, and thus eliminate the “fifth wheel of the coach?’ If not, why not? Mr. Aldrich so far has not pointed out anything new, so far as the principal question of not issue is concerned. Not one word does he say about money. Are the people to have nothing but | bank notes with which to do business? | How about,a legal tender, lawful man- ey of the United States with which to pay debts with? Bank notes are not money. They are debts. Bank notes cannot be made money. Congress has no authority under the constitution to make one man's debt a legal tender money and compel any other man to accept it to cancel a debt. The one question is, shall ccngress furnish the ot g ” “He got that job,” said the black- “That was his sense enough to be he wanted to be. “The company actuall fer starting Jed in him a single rig an’ a pic route. “‘Now, says the company ‘you take this wagon an’ to the corner of Lake an’ Canal s , an' drive south as far as Jackson—and you call wherever you see our cards hung out.’ “‘“Thet’s easy,’ says Jed. “‘And,’ says the boss, ‘you take up the cards and bring all freight to this barn.’ “Well, away goes Jed, happy and gay, and about three hours later in he comes a radiatin’ sunshine from every pore. He came into the office, luggin’ a stock of the company’s call cards and plunks ‘em down on the desk. “q got 'em every onme’ says he, proud as a peacock. ‘Some of the peo- ple tried to stop me, but I soon showed ‘em where they got off’ says Jed. ““Where's the freight?” asks bos: “ ‘What freight? says Jed. “Well, sir, if there was a madder man than that boss in this world it was the next express boss higher up. They didn’t know where the cards had been. They had no way of findin’ all that freight, but to wait fer ’phone calls, meanwhile runnin’ the chance of losin’ gix blocks of customers.” “They discharged him for that, dld they ?” asked old Dave. “No,” said the blacksmith. “Dis- charged is too mild a word. They didn’t give him time to walk out by the door. He jumped through a win- der.”"—Chicago News. apologized just givin’ ~—W. B. Meloney, in American Maga- zine. Protest from Yale. If there is any one thing that is wn- fair to a university with an established reputation, it is to appropriate its reputation for a bueiness or educa- tional trademark. Every large uni- versity suffers from this kind of thing. Harvard has its beer brewers, its su: pender makers, its “pant pressers,” its cellulold collar manufacturers, its ash cart service—all ma.lqueudlm r the reverend name of John Yale, in only one city telephone di- rectory—that of New York—has its “Yale pants company,” “Yale suspen- der company,” “Yale walst company,” “Yale dental company,” “Yale laundry company.” Elsewhere, bottling works, brewing companies, business colleg: first aid veterinary remedy manufac turers, ice cream makers, ice deale: iron workers, and wood deliveries, a pear under Elihu’'s family name. Is it not manifestly unfair to a university that had no dental or business college or wood-splitting yard attached to it, to find that these names (which the future might develop) have been ap- propriated by private institutions? Hard-earned pre-eminence, whether of a university or an individual, invites the appropriation of such benefits as it may have in the public mind. Un- fortunately the law does mot protect men and institutions in this particu- lar. There are Taft belts, and Roose- velt popguns, and Depew cigars, and Harvard beer and Yale “pants.” Now and then a protest against the prac- tice is sufficient. But not always, un- fortunately. Wherever graduates can help to limit the use of the names of their university to its proper and only authorized sphere, they will do a great service to their institution—Yale Alum- ni Weekly. British Are Seeking Canadian Markets It appears that British manufactur- ers have set out to make a special e fort to capture a larger share of the trade of the Canadian markets. Con- sul Frederick I Bright makes this report from England to the department of commerce and labor, which in turn gives warning to American manufac- turers that in future they are to en- counter a sharper rivalry in the Cana- dian field. The Canadian market is an import- ant one to the United States, the ex- ports to Canada last year amounting American people with . money, with which to do the business of the coun- try, or shall congress delegate the power to banks, to furnish the people with the bank’s “promises to pay” (debts) ? J. C. VALLETTE, North Franklin, Conn., Nov. 17, 1909. MR. PULITZER'S WAY. His Idea About Saving Words and Spending Money. “Don’'t waste words,’ Mr. Pulitzer has dinned in the ears of his sons and his editors and reporters. This preach- ing has been summed up in these three words placarded all over the editorial rooms of The World: ‘Ac- curacy, Terseness, Accuracy—J. P. An introduction to an article or ‘story’ for his paper ‘is a waste of time, good paper, and words,’ he has protested dver and over again. ‘T don’t want to read a thing three times and you have to do it when an editor tells you in headlines what you may expect to read, and the reporter tells you in an introduction and again in the body of his story and maybe two or three times more something that you know already.’ “Mr. Pulitzer’s respect for words is not an idiosyncrasy of his infirmity. In the old days on The Post-Desgpatch and later on The World he held edi- tions many a time while he struggled to get into an editorial a word of the proper shading, or ‘killed’ an editorial in the forms and wrote a new one. The familiar summaries of the big fea- tures of a news articles—they call them ‘boxes’ in newspaper offices— which one may read as he runs, is one of Mr. Pulitzer's pet ideas. He likes things massed. “‘Pay the highest price for the highest efficiency,’ is one of Mr. Pulitzer's cardinal rules, Men with ideas he counts greater than riches. He adores the man who will dare to do things. There was a man who en- tered his employ at whose command he placed unlimited funds with which to work. The funds sere unused, and six months passed without his doing anything. Then, one day, an idea came to him. He was on his own re- sources. He cabled to Mr. Pulitzer to know if he approved of his carrying out the idea. “Don’t bother me,’ was the answer he got back. ‘T don’t hire you to do that. For heaven's sake do some- thing about which I can tother you.'” More Than 20 Ingredients give to Hood's Sar- saparilla its great curative power — power to cure many and varied com- plaints, including diseases of the blood, pilments of the stomach, troubles of the kidne; sthmm.. o s ot Many of the lients are just w the profession prescribe in the ailments named, but the co portionsare peculiar ive it curative power E Therefore, there can be no substitute for Hood’s.

As more and more American goods are sold in Canada ‘We thoroughly take out every spot It behooves American ers to be up and doing if they are to keep their Canadian business. While our trade with ,Canada Is great, it be much greater under a wise system of rocal tariff relations which would obviate any er from British competition. It is in also that in view of the great proportions of our export business to Canada and the eagerness of British manufacturer- ars to capture the Canadian market, it will go hard with us if the maximum tariff is applied against Canada and there is a tariff war.—Philadelphia Times. As They Talk in Kansas. The determination of the progres- sive republicans of Kansas to make a “clean sweep” in the congressional dis- tricts now represented by their Rhode Island congressman, as expressed by William len- White recently, is pre- cisely the conclusion that might have been expected. . . .
