CKING UP BUSINESS. According to the report of Fourth Assistant Postmaster General DeGraw, the fres rural delivery business I showing substantial signs of appreei- ation on the part of the people. In the last fiscal year the amnunt of mall handied on the rural frce delivery ates has increased to a point where is 3¢ ger cent ahead of the busi- ness four years ago. In other words, the amount of mail handled on the rural routes of the United States has doubled in four years. There != no doubt that it could be made profitable if it was permitted to do a local express business in the de- livery of small packages. The rural free delivery has come to stay, and it is the greatest civilizer the Tepublic has yet put into operation. It 18 mot too much to say that the institution of rural free delivery has worked and is working profound changes in our civilization and our politics.

There is no objection to every legit- imate step being taken in the interest of organized or unorganized labor, and it s admissable that the interests of the latter are often Involved in the interests of the fermer, but that gov- ernment must ever go down before the demands of organized labor is so mbsurd that even a large per cent. of those who represent it ought o be first to repudiate such cheap claptrap as this. to government Is essen- tial for security to labor.

McLean for the toga which Senator Bulkeley cannot be blamed for thinking fits him “very well indeed, says: Ithough the election of a United States senator will not_take place for a year, the lines are being closely drawn, and it will not be long Satore the bittarest stats battis within confines of the republican party will be fought.” This forecast is prob- ably as good as any other that could be made at this time. It must, how- ever, appeal to the average voter who trains in the republican ranks that a cause for bitterness in the contest really doesn't exist. Both the senator and the ex-govern- or are powerful influences in party leadership in this state, and what per- sonal differences there are may be be- tween them are only fully understood by themselves. Both are stalwart re- publicans, and both possess qualities of the character belleved to fit a man for service in the senate. Both will seck favor of thelr friends and en- deavor to influence the selection of representatives and senators to serve in the general assembly next year— which is & part of the game of seek- ing office instead of allowing the of- fice to do the seeking.—New London Telegraph. The Bulletin coincides with The Tel- egraph. There is no reason why this campaign should be anything but sweet. This is a free country and the race for the senatorship, or any other office, is an open race. There is no violation of rules or rights in such a contest. That it will be warm no one can doubt, but there is no rea- son why it should be spiteful or ndsty. The republican motto is: “Let the best man win” There is no dispute as to the fitness of either candidate, and, whoever wins, the interests of the state will not suffer. We expect a gumshoe campaign es & preliminary and a grand hurrah for a finish; but why any bitterness? The people and the candidates ought to be willing to get along without that. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? Robert D. Mulr of New Haven was treasurer of the People’s Bank and Trust company. He appropriated over $100,000. The penalty tmposed a few days ago was from one to five years in the state prison. It is lucky for Muir that he did not burglarize the bank and crack the safe, instead of betraying his trust and walking off with the securities. Had he been a mere safe cracker his enforced vaca- tion In Wethersfield would in all prob- abllity have been a good deal longer. In fact, as told in our state news columns, two men were sent to prison from twelve to fifteen months the oth- er day for forging football tickets. e fault that at most nettéd them less than one hundred dollars. It is not at all surprising that newspapers are talking about mollycoddle penalties for big criminals. It is difficult to see how the punishment fits the crime in many of the embezzlement cases. It is seldom that the common and far less dangerous thief fs shown such tender mercy.—Bristol Press. How much better is the man who betrays a trust and becomes a de- faulter than a burglar? From any moral point of view there can be no superfority shown. The burglar is what he is and lives up to it. The defaulter pretends to be an honest and moral man often when he is a hypocrite and a thief. It is about time that the verdicts and judgments of the courts fitted the crime a little closer. It is these glaring miscar- riages of justice which bring the courts into disrespect. EDITORIAL NOTES. Happy thought for today: The raw delights of life are more hilarious than satistying.

The Fateful Hyphen. It happens frequently and perhaps usually, where the hyphen is employed, to phrase a controversy, that the losing position is that of the party of the first part and the winning that of the party of the second part. Thus, in reference 0 & war, the name of the defeated na- tion familiarly precedes that of the vic- tor; the Spanish-American war, Fran- co-German, Russio-Japanese. It was the Cook-Peary controversy as gen- erally phrased from the first; and the result confirmed the rule by a curious fatality. Possibly in the psychology of what seems to be purely an accidental arrangement, the first place is alloted to the apparently weaker controversial- ist, pending a decision. Possibly, too, @ sense of rhythm is influential; though this may_be more imaginary than real. “Peary-Cook” might not now sound 04d had that been the original arrange- ment.

Our Increasing Use of Gi Under Boilers. s and Oils During the firat half of the last cen- tury it was solld fuel only that was employed for the generation of hea and power, but the last half of the cen- tury has seen the advent of liquid and gaseous fuels, which under certain con- ditfons proved themselves of the great- est value, and certain processes are now largely dependent upon their use, this being due to the ease of aplica~ tion which has meant economy in la- bor and greater facility for converting the heat into work. As an example of the ease of application making a fuel of poor calorific value more effective in use than coal of high quality, one may instance such manufactures as those of glass, where in_the heating by solid fuel the necessary temperature had to be imparted to the mass of raw material through the walls of a thick fire clay retort, the difficulty of appli- cation here being dependert upon the fact that the crucible had to be heated to a very high temperature to get the necessary fusing point of the glass mixture, and that maintaining this for & considerable period meant a big ex- penditure in fuel and great wear and tear to the furnace and containing ves- sel. Tt was clear that if the fuel could be gasified and the clean flame made to play directly onto the surface of the mixture to be fused, instead of having to impart ‘the heat through the walls of the ‘containing vessel, an enormous economy would be obtained, and this is now done by utilization of producer | gas and regeneration in the continuous tank process. In the same way liquid fuel, as soon as methods could be found for 'its proper combustion, presented such wonderful economies and advant- ages for marine work that, in spite of its being dearer than coal, it as once found a place in both the navy and merchant marine. The possibility of being able to, store it below the level of the boller in the ballast tanks In- stead of having, as in coal bunkers, to have the storage above that level, at| once gave increased space in the im- portant part of the vessel, and, what was of greater Importance in the ser- vice the being able to carry a larser supply of latent energy in’the same space as the coal occupied increased the radius of action of the vessel— Sclent!fic American.

No Real Trouble Over Time of Taking Inventory. ‘Washington, Jan, 8.—Investigation has put a very different face on the situation as to the manufacturers’ in- ventory in conmection with the new corporation tax which is to be paid first this year. The provision that there shall be filed an inventory as of Dec. 31 is not in the law at all, so that the matter didn’t have to g0 to the attorney general, but is a rule of the internal revenue office, Commissioner Cabell feeling that he must have an accurate inventory on which to base the tax of 1 per cent. on gross in- ccme. However, the commissidner s well aware of the impossibility of takiag an inventory in one day, in most cas ang it has been brought to his usie tion that in Connecticut inventories are usually taken et other times in_ the year, many during the. first month or two. His position is that a regular ir- ventory @s of Dec. 31 must be iled, but this need not have been taken on that day or in process of being taken. An inventory taken earlier can readily be brought up to that date in sul stance, and this is all that will be in- sisted upon.

While the population of the continental United States in- creased 50.6 per cent. during the years from 1880 to 1900, the total number of children from 10 te 15 years of age engaged in trade and transportation, increased 216.5 per cent, and of those engaged in manufacturing and me- chanical pursuits 113.4 per cent. In spite of sentiment and legislation, the number is still increasing. Compusory education and factory inspection are but insufficient safeguards. During the past vear a boy of nine was found working in a Vermont woolen mill. In the sardine canneries of Maine a good many children of eight or ten years are employed, and during the busy sea. son they sometimes work 15 or 16 hours at a stretch.
