A. coul® not make things meet. According to his own showing he was backed by men who, according to his statements, were too stupid to guard their own interests, to say noth- ing of the bank depositors’ funds. He couldn't get caught and he could not muster up courage enough to con- fess. He says that about two years ago he deliberately went away and re- mainé@ most of one summer, hoping, he said, the condition of the books would be discovered. Glaring errors left behind in a way to attract atten< tion were overlooked during his ab- sence, and Hall returned to South- bridge, disappointed he said, to find no notice had been taken of what he intended to be an exposure. 5 Another time, Hall said, he went to Boston and remained three days, leav- ing papers and glaring entries in his Dooks, which, as he expressed it, “a blind man could hardly have -over- looked.” He said he expected hourly to hear the whole thing had been ex- posed, but when he returned to South- dridge no one seemed to have made any discovery, and so it went along, Hall expecting and hoping the discov- ery would be made. He has said his suffering has been great during the past three or four years. He hadn't been able to muster up the necessary nerve to tell of his doings, but, as he put it, he hoped that some one would make the discovery that would lead to an inquiry, that his mind might begat rest. Hall is quoted as saying: M Dntered at the Postoffice at Nerwich, Conn., as second-class matter. Bnllo:g Indn.- . Bulletin Joh Otflufi. “-‘. Willimantle Office, Room 2. Murray Builisg.

He does not believe in the whitewash brush or the whitewasher or the whitewashed. He §s not excited by the inquiry con- cerning high prices and their relation to the tariff, It is alleged that the president has informed some of the leaders that he desires an honest and fmpartial investigstion, without refer- ence whether the tariff is hit or not. Me feels that any other sort of an inguiry conducted with the object of shisiding the tariff would be worse than useless, that the country would resent it and that it would be political- ly dangersus, President Taft's heart is right and hie Nead level. He still knows that homesty of purpose is one of the best assets any political party can possess, and that trickery and false pretence are msoon detected by the people and are followed by merited reversals of poliey. He does not believe in political art simply because he knows that political honesty is better, He desires to have public matters probed right. If the wooépile is investigated and there is a nigger in it, he wants him shown up. This §s why he will shine whether his desires are met or not. OUR FOREIGN TRADE. In connection with the furore over'| high prices, attention is being called to our Increasing foreign trade in ag- rieultural products which in the past half-century has been more than quad- rupled and has reached nearly a bil- Mon dollars a year. ‘The Philadelphia Times calls atten- tion to the fact that Uncle Sam 1is feeding and clothing a large share of the people of the earth outside our own boundarfes. It says the chief agricul- tural products exported in the last half “For two examine the books. I have made per- sonal application to the bank direc- tors to have the books examined, and I have talked the matter over time and again, but it is true that aside from my anxiety to have the books examined I gave no hint of their condition.” He speculated in real estate and on one occasion claims to have shared with a relative $40,000, and that is the only success he shows in squandering a half-million that did not belong to him. It is not very complimentary to the offiefals when he declares it was the hardest job to excite interest enough among bank officials to have his books examined, Try as he would, he could not get caught, without telling the story himeself, PAINT ADUL I ERATIONS ALLEGED The legislative committee of the Master Painters and Decorators’ asso- ciation of Connecticut, which has been making examinations of the paints and oils on the market, in a circular to its members, asks them to work for the passage of the Heyburn bill, which is intended to prevent the sale, manu- facture, or transportation of adulter- ated or mislabeled paints, turpentine or linseed oil. This committee says chemical analysis of the contents of kegs labeled “white lead” shows in some instances not an atom of white lead in them; other kegs so branded have aconsiderable percent. of foreign matter. 'Ochres in some cases have proved to be eommon clay, and “mixed paints” are adulterated with 10 or 36 per cent. water instead of linseed oil. Other adulterations are also alleged.— Despatch. | ‘This is a matter which should in- terest all property owners. The users of paints are aware of the dishonesty of the trade—of the poverty of the materials used, of the fact that paint- ing a house has come to be like throw- ing the money away. It makes trou- ‘bles for painters and decorators and must to a considerable extent slacken the demand for their services. Men who receive unsatisfactory results for g00d money soon cease to be enter- prising. - Of course, competition of a criminal order is at the bottom of these adulterations, and the desire of patrons to do things cheap encourages this means of meeting the trade. Cheap paints are not the best. It is the fair price which produces good goods and good work. All that can be done by law to stop it should be done. EDITORIAL NOTES. The New York man who has been married nineteen times Is something of a matrimonial bureau himself. third, packing house products. consifering the civil war period, the tendency of cotton exports has been steadily to increase since 1851. The highest year was 1907 when 4,518,000,- 000 pounds were sent out. Exports of grain and grain products amounted to $215,000,000 in 1908, a total much above the average of recent .years, though there has been a decline since 1896- 1900, which was the period of largest graln exports. When it comes to packing house products, it is weorth observing that they have Increased much more rap- iy in the last half century than cot- ton or cereal In 1908 the exports of packing house products amounted to $196,800,000. The principal items are pork, lard, beef and oleo oil. Beef has deelined since 1905, but even at that we are shipping abroad about 359,- 000,000 pounds a year.

THE EXCITEMENT OF THE OPER- ATORS. ‘The excitement in Wal street is not as marke@ In its effects upon the coun- try as it used to be, and it is to be hoped that the day of stock gambling is fast drawing to a close, for that is one of the dlights upon the nafion to- day. Because Wall street operators are disecuraged, business mneed not be alarmed, and it is not. Bradstreet’s, reporting on Friday up- on the state of business throughout the country, said: “Yet jobbing trade is moderately wotive and traveling salesmen continue to send in satisfactory spring orders; vwhile manufacturers are still operat- ing on the basis of full capacity, the iron and steel trade conditions are ir- regular” ‘We select these sentences from Dun’s weekly report: “While there has been no rsturn to the remarkable activity of a few months ago, current cemsumptien of iron and steel continues in heavy vol- umse ané all leading producers are bus- ily engaged in filing contracts on their beooks, “In the jobbing markets, the trade for the week has been more active, the mederate advances relative to the use of raw . materials doing much te stimu- late confidence.” ‘This hfi‘:ttal that Wall street has ceased to be the pulse of the country— it is only the pulse of the speculative ifratqroity.

There is a revolution in the style of “The Bulletin’s Pattern Service. sleeves. The g, ight, severely —_— & plain ones are steadily giving way to % the elaborate models. The new sleeves show a variety of ornate shapes with gathers, puffs, plaitings, slashes and smockings galore. Some are full length. some end above and others just turn the elbow. There are wide and narrow cuffs of net and lace, with full puffs above, held by bands of velvet or satin ribbonm, gold, silver or bronze tissue. Sleeves need no longer be of the ma- terial of the gown; indeed, they are more often of fabric far removed from that of the frock. Lace, net, gold and silver tissue and chiffon cloth are used in creating the majority of sleeves of smart gowns. On one frock one or two of these materfals may be used; on another all of them may be com- bined to form a ravishing arm cover- mg.
