PEOPLE’S MARKET, 6 Franklin St. ? s L medical profession, in favor of a con- centration of the instruments of the national government which have to do with the promotion of public health. In the nature of things the medical department of the army and the med- ical department of the navy must be kept separate. But there seems to be no reason why all the other bureaus and offices in the general government which have to do with the public health or subjects akin thereto should not be united in a bureau to be called the “bureau of public health.” This would necessitate the transfer of the marine hospital service to such a bu- reau. I am aware that there is a wide field in respect to the public health committed to the states in which the federal government cannot exercise ju- risdiction, but we have seen in the agricultural department the expansion into widest usefulness of a department glving attention to agriculture when that subject is plainly one over which the states properly exercise direct ju- risdietion. The opportunities offered for useful research and the spread of useful information in regard to the cultivation of the soil and the breeding of stock and the solution of many of the intricate problems in progressive agriculture have demonstrated the wisdom of establishing that depart- ment. Similar reasons of equal force can be given for the establishment of a bureau of health that shall not only exercise the police jurisdiction of the federal government respecting quaran- tine, but which shall also afford an op- portunity for investigation and re- search by competent experts into ques- tions of health affecting the whole country or important sections thereof, questions which In the absence of fed- eral governmental work are not likely to be promptly solved. The work of the United States civil service commission has been perform- ed to the general satisfaction of the executive officers with whom the com- mission has been brought into official communication. The volume of that work and its variety and extent have under new laws, such as the census act and new executive orders, greatly increased. The activities of the com- ission required by the statutes have reached to every portion of the public domain. The accommodations of the commis- slon are most inadequate for its needs. I call your attention to its request for increase in those accommodations as will appear from the annual report for this year. ’ Political Contributions. I urgently recommend to congress that a law be passed requiring that candidates in elections of members of the house of representatives and com- mittees in charge of their candidacy and campaign file in a proper office of the United States government a state- ment of the contributions received and of the expenditures incurred in the campaign for such elections and that slmilar legislation be enacted in re- spect to all other elections which are constitutionally within the control of congress, Freedman's Savings and Trust Com- pany. Recommendations have been made by my predecessor that congress ap- propriate a sufficlent sum to pay the balance—about 38 per cent—of the amounts due depositors in the Freed- man's Savings and Trust company. I renew this recommendation and advise also that a proper limitation be pre- scribed fixing a period within which the claims may be presented, that as- signed claims be not recognized and that a limit be imposed on the amount of fees collectible for services in pre- senting such claims. Semicentennial of Negro Freedom. The year 1013 will mark the fiftieth anniversary of the issuance of the emancipation proclamation granting freedom to the negroes. It seems fit- ting that this event should be proper- ly celebrated. Already a movement has been started by prominent ne- groes, encouraged by prominent white people and the press. The south espe- cially is manifesting its interest in this movement, It is suggesied that a proper form of celebration would be an exposi- tion to show the progress the negroes have made, not only during their pe- riod of freedom, but also from the time of their coming to this country. I heartily indorse this proposal and request that the executive be auther- jzed to appoint a preliminary commis- gion of not more than seven persons to consider carefully whether or mnot it is wise to hold such an exposition, and if so to outline a plan for the en- terprise, 1 further recommend that such preliminary commission serve without salary, except as to their ac- tual expenses, and that an appropria- tion be made to meet such expenses, HiGH GOST OF LIVING. Increased Gold Output Partly Re- sponsible—More Prosperity. I have thus, in a message compressed as much as the subjects will permit, referred to many of the legislative needs of the country, with the excep- tions already noted. Speaking gener- ally, the country is in a high state of prosperity. There is every reason to believe that we are on the eve of a substantial business expansion, and we have just garnered a harvest unex- ampled in the market value of our agricultural products. The high prices which such preducts bring mean great prosperity for the farming community; but, on the other hand, they mean a very considerably increased burden upon those classes in the community whose yearly compensation does not expand with the improvement in busi- ness and the general prosperity. Vari- ous reasons are given for the high prices.. The proportionate increase in the output of gold, which today is the chief medium of exchange and is in some respects a measure of value, fur- nishes a substantial explanation of at least part of the increase in prices. The lucrease In population and the more expeusive mode of living of the people, which bave not been accom- panied by a proportionate increase in acreage production, may furnish a fur- ther reason. It is well to note that the increase in tbe ¢oms of living is mot | confined fo this country, but tlo'vomwet,mlmfiou% ‘would charge increases iu prices to the existing protective tariff must meet taken place almost wholly in those products of the factory and farm in respect to which there has been either no increase in the tariff or in many instances a very considerable reduc- tion. WILLIAM H. TAFT. The White House, Dec. 7, 1909. Privateering. Privateering dates from the reign of King Edward 1.-1272-1307. He was the first monarch to adopt that method of making war on an enemy. It grew out of the fact that at that time the nations of the world had but primitive navies and had to draw on the mer- chant' marine for the bulk of their strength at sea. With England show- Ing the way, the other nations of Eu- rope lost mo time in adopting this plan of injuring an enemy. Commissions were issued by a belligerent state to vessels owned and manned by private persons, authorizing them to carry on hostilities at sea against the other bel- ligerent. It was not long before this license to merchantmen created a prac- tical state of piracy. PROFIT IN FLOWERS. Big Money Made by Waterbury Flor- ists in a Short Ti ‘The Watgrbury Republican says: 7t may sound like a fairy tale, but it is nevertheless true, that there are two men in Waterbury who have mad 370,000 in seven vears. These 1wo men now have a business which pays them about $10,000 per year and they hope to double that income within the next five years. In this optimistie hope they are joined by their two uc- tive partners—there are two active and three silent partners in the concern-—— and plans are now in preparation to bring about a doubling of the pres=nt income. The two men are John Saxe and Frank Floto, florists on Hamilton ave- nue, The two active partners of those men are Mrs. Saxe and Mrs. Floto, and the three silent partners are Per- severance, Honesty and Sobriety. It is a combination hard to beat in the business world, and a combination that seldom goes into the hands of the receiver, Seven years ago John Saxe and Frank Floto decided to go into the business of raising flowers for the market. Neither man was possessedi of much capital. Mr. Saxe had a small place out on Hamilton avenue ani ut first glance the soil appeared to be well adapted for the raising of rocks and stubble, and it was at that stage that Perseverance was taken into the firm. With such crude implements as ‘hey had in their possession, Messrs. Saxe and Floto went to work to clear up the land and by laboring before sua- rise and after sunset they soon had a large plot of ground in condition for the culture of plants. These plants found a ready market and the profits were turned over to the purchase of an adjoining strip of land and some ‘buildings. MUMMY FOR YALE. May be Former Rameses, May Be His Cook. A prominent Egyptian arrived in New York Sunday on the steamship Ara- gonia. He will make his home in New Haven as an attache of Yale. It is not certain whether he is a hitherto unpublished Rameses or whether he is the cook of the Ramesses who swatted the Hittities. That will be ascertained when he gets to Yale and they read the mean- ing of the papyrus texts, the amulets, the little figures of alabaster and the meseages to the old gods that are be- lieved to be with him in his cedar case. Harold Stokes, a brother of Anson Phelps Stokes, the secretary of Yale university, made his acquaintance in Egypt and believed that he would be a valuable acquisition for that insti- tution. Harold Stokes billed the mummy to J. H. McCullough of 100 William street, who represents Anson Phelps Stokes, and Mr. McCullough will for- ward the Egyptian to Mr. Stokes at the university, Mr. McCullough had practically no line on the mummy's past. He said he had an idea that an- cient Egyptians came in free under the Payn-Aldrich tariff and that Mr. Stokes would not have to pay duty. The lconoclastic Age. What?

Such records, notices and reports to the factory inspector, and any inves- tigation made by him or his deputies or agents, shall be privileged and con- fidential ghall not be open for examinati or inspection, and neither such factory inspector nor any of his deputies or agents shal be a compe- tent witness as to the facts involved in such accident in any proceeding pending in any court, unless such fac- tory inspector, depcty or agent was present at the time of the occurrence of the accident. “Sec. 3.—The term ‘accident’ result- ing in serfous physical injury, as used in this act, shall be construed to mean every accident which results in the death of the employe or causes his absence from work for at least one week thereafter. “Sec. 4—Any person, after baving received from the factory inspector forms for such notices, who shall fail to send notice of any accident as re- quired by this act shall be fined not more than twenty dollars.” In a busy manufacturing city like New Britain there are several acci- dent every week despite the fact that those in charge of the factories have used every precaution to prevent in- jury to their employes, Most of the accidents, however, are slight in nature and thus far very few reports have had to be sent to the factory inspector from this cit It is greatly to the credit of those in charge of the manufacturing establish- ments that they are doing all in their power to render accidents impossible. to Factory THOUGHT DEAD. Man Seen in Bridgeport —Sensation in Divorce Suit. There was a sensational develop- ment in a slit for annulment of mar- riage brought by Frederick Gillman of Arlington, N. J., before Vice Chan- cellor Howell in Newark last Friday when one of the witnesses in the case swone that Mrs. Gillman’s first hus- band is alive and that he had talked with him in this city the previous Sunday, says the Bridgeport Telegram. The proceedings were halted and a special commissioner was appointed to come to this city and interview the al- leged husband, Jeremiah Morton, who is id to live here. Iman’'s grouid for seeking the annuliment of his marriage is that his wife married Morton in Ireland, that there was no divorce, and that Morton is still alive. Mrs. Gillman claimed that her first husband died before she married Gillman in 1900, and wit- nesses swore to seing his body in the morgue in New York. The case will be resumed January .

NO WRITTEN HISTORY. Annals of City of Ansenia Never Put in Permanent Form. The suggestion of Supt., Buckley of the public schools ‘of Ansonia that a textbook of Ansonia be prepared for the use and information of the chil- dren of the city, is being favorably commented upon. There is no written history of Ansonia, and the teachers in the public schools labor at a di advamfage when touching local mat- ters. ‘The only book which the teach- er or other seeker of information re- garding Ansonia can consult is The History of the Old Town of’ Derby, published in 1880 by Orcutt & Beard: ley. Ansonia is simply mentioned be- cause it was a part of Derby while valuable in many ways, the book cannot be considered a history of An- sonia. FOR TEACHING SWIMMING.
