The Bulletin learns that a republican »ficial In the Sixth district is co-op- erating with the democr to sell out the republican nominee for alderman, Herbert M. Lerov re interests of the democratic nomineg, for alderman, fenry ¥. Parker, who is now running for his t public office. Mr. Lerou was elected to the court of common eouncil in June, 1305, and appointed to the board of police com- and again in 1906. e secured the information which led up to the investigation of the man- agement of Yantic cemetery in 1906, ané was the cause of the superinten- 3 dismissei for inefficiency in June of the same year. Mr. Lerou also d the information and framed charges against a supernumerary ceman, whe, after having made an took the prisoner into a saloon anklin square and permitted him ; a drink, and the policeman was found gudlty of the charge the penaity for the offence being dismissal.

The grand list of the city of wich has e 1870 increased about $4.000,000, or 50 per cent, and the tax “ounciiman Lerou clean, conscientiou ts will see reached the highest point in the his- tory of the city in 1901 when it was made 15 mills on a list a million and three-fourths greater than the list of 0, when the city tax was 6 mills. While the tex list has gained 50 per cent. the tax rate has increased 68 per cemnt, In 1904 the tax was made @ mills on a grand list of $11,386,649 and the year closed with a deficit of $50,000, and an 11 mill tax was iaid the following vear to meet the rrent expenses and wipe out this oating debt. There has been an aver- age tax levy of 10 1-4 mills on the srand list, which since then has been increesed a milllon and a half. There has been a large increase of permanent expenses. but the republicans have kept within their appropriations the past year and come out with unex- pended balances of $17,004.99, $6.000 of which is for the gas and electric light plant, which leaves a clear balance of ed nearly $12,000, and it is now propo ugh this mun to carry the city thr year upon § mi hich has not been e since 157 and upon this proposition the repub- licans invite the support of the voter o party in thirty years has made a setter record or made 4 SqUATer prop- osition to the taxpayers Chere nothing under such circumstances in- viting a change of administration, and the voters of Norwich have ne ade & change under such condition UP TO THE ;AXPAYERS. There are a thousand things that Norwich needs; and the needs of Nor- wich, like the needs ofiany city of its clean, a thing size, are simply exhaustless. There has net been e time in thirty vears that the demands of the different rec f the city have not exceeded the abillty of the city fathers to grant -never year that improvements nave not to be delayed until a more opportune occasion.

THE INCREASED EXPENSES. The voters should realize that an increase of permanent expenses leaves no chance to levy lighter taxes. The cost of the fire department has more than doubled, the cost of the police department has been advanced perma- nently by the pension system, there are new park expenses, the school sys- tem is constantly making larger de- mands upon the people, and because of recent extravagance by the legislature a state tax now has to be paidl This state tax amounts to about a half-mill upon the grand list, but added to other permanent expenses is a burden that is felt. The responsibility for these permanent advances is chargea- ble to both parties and to the times in which we live; but a care should be exercised to keep permanent expenses wn; and to see that the tax funds are economically spent. The Interest rate by refunding has been cut down commendably, and the pledge of a par- iy that has made as good a showing as the republicans have made in the past twe years should be accepted by the peop A YEAR OF GREAT FLIGHTS. The summer of 1910 promises to be a ison of achievements in air navi- ition, as has been shown by the three zreat flights recently made—the flight of Paulhan from London to Manches- ter, England, the flight of Curtiss from Albany to New York city, and the flight of Rolls from England to ince and back across the English | channel without stopping, in a Wright | biplane. 'These were all daring and ~cord-breaking flights, and they fore- | dow a season in this direction without a parallel. It is likely that fiights may be attempted from New York to Washington and from New ¥ to Chicago; and it would not be surprising if the Rochester man who announces his intention to fly across ke Ontario should succeed; or if | some one should capture the prize for a flight from New York to St. Louis. There is no foretelling what the fiy- ing machines may do in the next five months. The biplane ought to work the fairs in the fall, since it would be a great drawing card. EDITORIAL NOTES.

Soclety, 1| man, if the t feel conscio THE MAN WHO TALKS There are two definitions of man at present—the religious and the sciemtif- ic; and it is surprising how far apart they be. The church teaches man is the noblest work of God, a sentiment which las attained a permanent place in the heart and in the conceit of man. The scientists teach that physically nan is Imperfect and Js fuel for dis- ecase. It professes to inake man im- mune.from disease by artificial means, which, if their theory is correct, God doesn’t do. Both definitons are ac- cepted by religious people without no- ticing the inconsistency, or the fact that if this is true the power of man is_exalted above the power of God.. What thinking person entertains the thought that God has filled the earth with diseases to menace, afflict and de- stroy his noblest work? What a difference there folks! Although the command is to help one anether, scme have an frritating manner and some a soothing manner. Seme people embarrass you and others soothe you by their very presence. Some it is good to be absent from, the others it is good to be with. Mrs. Blaine said in one of her letters: “T would rather quicken my falth by five minutes’ talk with Anna PotteF than Dby listening to five sermons upon the immortality of the soul.” All this means is that Anna was inspiring to®her, and the pulpit wearing. Too much talk, never mind how able or sincere it is, often defeats the purpose of the talker. | | ! by glotter as it is by simplicity—the heart that loves us impresses us more than the heart that would teach us the way. ng on the level is better than being on a hobby-horse in any work. { e Perhaps you have not realized how | any moons the people have created ! y analogy. They have the blue moon, | the silver moon, tne herb moon and | he honey-mmon, Things that are done ofice in a blue moon” are attended to | twice a year. The silver moon glitters in song and has afforded the music- loving world much pleasure. The herb-moon is the moon of long court- ship—the moon of tittle-tattle, not of accomplishment. The honey-moon is the moon of them all, generaily under- stood, but really indefinable because there were never two honey-moons just alike. Perhaps you have never been delighted by a glade-moon,which makes the lanes on the ocean by which craft appear and disappear to those who sit upon the beach. It is generally con- ceded that moonglade, for the lane of light on the sca, is one of the prettiest words in the English language. ! I suppose we are all victims of the cks of trade. In the commercial Iks of life the men who can do the other fellow legitimately and oftenest are the best fellows. While achieve- men and tricks often go hand in hand, they are nmot of the same cloth, for chievement is blighted by trickery; trickery gives a man a bad name where | real achievement gives him high repute. | Commercialism is full of penny and two penny tricks—underweight, under- measure and under-quality—and every | cay some'one in consequence countis ill-gotten gain. The greedy man thinks 1t is only a little here and a little there, tut the burden of the {ll-gotten aggre- gate often bears upon his conscience when he has no fear of the law. It is well to be morally clean, since soap and | water has no power to make white a man besmirched with little dishonest- ies. | A little money or a littie fame make some people very interesting to folks who have neither. It has been said that if you have money those you are introduced to seldom forget your name; but, then, your enemies have just as tenacious a memory for your faults and vour failings. There is a sort of indellibility to the meanness of others | the moment that it is practiced upon us—only the masterful can forget it. There are many better things that could dwell in memory and be more pleasureatile and profitable to all of us. Only a few have learned to forget the evil_acts of others and to cherish the good for good's sake, but all may. Meanness has to be noticed to keep alive, and it takes two to doi it, just as it takes two to make trouble. The wise form better partnerships. One day the past week I saw the first humming bird of the season enter the tube of a yellow lily and his em- erald green throat glistened brighter than ever. Then I recalled that I was just as pleased when I saw the first bluebird, and robin, and wren, and oriole, and_swallow.” If the birds do not add to’ the gaiety of the nations, they do lend e charm to nature for those who are awake to the beautiful. | The first flower, the first toad, are al- ways welcoms, 'too. They mark the advance of the calendar toward the | more salubrious and more fruitful part of the year. Cats do not seem to keep | the birds away, and I know they do not | kill many. The fact is, the well fed domestic cat is too lazy to catch birds | or mice. Life to such cats passes from a ferocious pursuit to a dream—a dream of salmon from the can instead of featherless birds in a high nest. | Cats, too, court a life of leisure, We know that man abuses his | stomach until he invalids himself and | he abuses his mind by lending it to| unprofitable subjects, two of which are hate and fear. The scripture says: ‘Whatsoever things are true, whatso- ever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good repor if there be any virtue and If there be any praise, think on these things.’ The adversities and the grudges and the prejudices and the fears are not worth lending one’s mind to.

Her badby lovely surroundi ng: 1 y alive, In a bright, fair beauti- ful world. Perhaps what she enjoyed most was her own inner power of imaging. She was born with a wish- ing-cap, which no one ever saw but herself, a cap that her into all sorts of interesting places, and carried her in and out of wildly exciting adventures, and gave her all the wonders of the earth and heavens to possess and call her own and glory in.” No one else knew. Often when she was quietest, making her eiders no_trouble, playing silently and alone, indeed, not seeming to be playing at all, she was really having a beauti- ful time inside of ‘herself—perhaps journeying in a caravan across the desert, beset by wild beasts or whoop- ing red Indians, perhaps raising on the d wings of some fabulous ‘bird high into the up air, or sailing the opal seas in a white-winged ship, or walking the tinted clouds of sun- set. In exalted moments, she was an angel, sweeping the golden pavement with her trailing robes. Many an hour she was silently play- ing with her favorite playmate, the boy friend she liked best, the boy who lived in the wall and saw everything she saw, who was always with her when she wanted him, the friend who was hers as she his, the boy who walked and talkel and played with her, and whom no_one but herself ever saw or heard. Even her two big little brothers, sons of giants, never saw him. They would have said he did not exist. "It she had spoken of him, they would have laughed him to scorn and called him “sissy;” they would have booted both at him and at her. Intuftively the child knew this, and spoke not a word. The boy was real to her, the dearest friend she had, the only one, in fact, to whom she could tell everything, and talk her heart out, and be sure he would understand. In their silent way, the boy and the child played all sorts of plays together. Sometimes she was a street waif, a tired, cold, hungry, homeless child, without shelter from the rain, ragged and barefoot and friendless. She would be driven out into the streets at dawn to earn or beg or steal, some- how to get bread and scraps of rheat and copper coins for the terrible ty- rants who controlled her and had her in their power. She was forced to sweep a city crossing for a penny bit, to stand on & street corner to beg, or iry to sell a bunch of withered wild flowers to the ladies hurrying by. She was always stretching out.a small, bare, brown hand for the something— or nothing—that might be dropped in- to it. How the child fabricated these pathetic dreams of hers, it would be hard to say, for she was not yet six, too young to have read them out of story book$. She herself was always cheeks for the waif she felt herself to be. It was a sorry life she lived, compelled to beg the hard crusts of her <daily bread, pushed and jostled and thrust to one side by the busy crowd, a little friendl child, alone in a rushing world. But into the depths of her ml‘l:r{l‘l:msdk one of bright, whif e knew l':yn ‘when the long day ended, when the welcome night came, when one hy one the street pes should be light- the corner would by the hand be sure, it was a wretched hole of a basement into which she plunged at night, with only a bed of s to sleep on, and only v{ rare Tuck could she slink into it unobserved, and 50 escape the cruel cuffs and blows that were always hers in waiting. But the walk al nfitne gas-lit streets with her hand in his seemed like go- ing home. A princess she was at times, oc- casionally in \disguize, byt oftenest a veritable princess, the daughter of a kingly line. Then she was apparel- ed in rich brocades and cloth of gold and wore upon her hair a jewelled coronet. She was marvellously fair, angelically kind. She knew every- thing, and did everything she knew. Mother's pretty sitting-room stretch- ed away into palace halls, mosaics were bemeath her feet, wondrous tapestries veiled the walls, perfumed fountains sprayed the court, flowers bioomed and full-throated birds 1rill- ed for her. Mother herself was trans- formed into a queenly sceptre. Father was lord supreme of all the realm, her brothers were courtiers in velvet and gold lace and sweeping plumes. The majls and the out-door man were retainers. And the boy? Ah, he was the prince! She was oftener beggar girl than princess, however. Brocade and gems and glitter were far less dramatic than rags and hunger and weeping in the rain. She never loved he princess self as she loved her waif; and the prince of the court was never so dear to her as the boy her who rounded the corner of the street to rescue her from drudgery and lone- liness and desolation, and to iead her by the hand. As she grew older, he studied with her and helped her over the hard prob- lems in her lesson books. They never quarreled, not even for the excitement of it. They could not quarrel, being so truly onme. Not that they invar- iably thought allke. He was neither her slave nor satellite. Rather, she knew him to be her leader, and glad- Iy she followed whithersoever he led. Indeed, she could not do otherwise. She would not have dared take one step by herself without him, lest she lose her way in loneliness and doubt. Boy though he was, and growing as she grew, he always seemed to be her own better, wiser, nobler self. THE RECLUSE. As an sane and vise policy in handling 1910, of $50,000, is an example. The treasurer took $19,000 from from five to four per cent. pended balances of §17,994. Browning in Address to Citizens. The Republican Record illustration of what has been done In all departments, the They had to be met at that treasury and borrowed $25,000 at four per cent., thus reducing the rate The administration kept decidedly within the appropriations, and Treasurer Peck’s figures, which do not lie, show that there are unex- Some $6,000 of this should go to the new pole line built by the electrical department to Taftville, but that leaves $12,000 as a balance from last year's appropriations. The common council now recommends a considered carefully all the necessary expen the bonds which came due Jan. 1, time. the sinking fund, $6,000 from the ne-mill tax, after having of the city.—Amos A. spoken of as “mon- | strous animals.” I have no doubt that some husbands are all that. You see | in looking at the little faults of their | ‘wives husbands are likely to overlook | big faults of their own, und they do | not really know how bad they be. As a bad husband cannot make a good citizen, good citizens may be rarer than we think. It has been estimated that it will take $52,000,000 to evangelize the world, and the expectation is that it can be done in five years, or in two vears less time than the Panama canal | can_be built, and for about one-sixth of the cost, although it is ten times that stunt. If it really can be done for the price of four Dreadnoughts and a gunboat, the money ought to be forthcoming at once. The estimate looks low to me because it represents only 25 cents a head for the heathen | literature are saved for much less than the average of $400. Harmony in all nations and | tribes would be worth ten times t! amount, or $520,000,000; and the mil- lenium would not be dear at that price. I do not like to say anything dis- couraging upon so fine a project. We are in favor of it, and we should like to be alive on that great day.

With most of us the test comes far oftener as we bear our responsi- bilities, in ‘the home, in business, in the church and in the world. The presumption is. I admit, that majorities are usually right. On no other theory can we maintain popular moment to decide ‘twixt truth and false- governmenf. But the voice of the people is not invariably the voice of God. It was mot that when in the judgment hall of Pilate 18 centuries ago the fickle populace raged against a weary, hunted, yet still kingly Gall- lean peasant. and shouted incessantly in thelr madness: “Crucliy him, cru ity him!™ No group of men can keep or bind my consclence, yet on the other hand, T must not mistake consclence for obstinacy and so become a _chronic i ¢aer.

In his re- | cent. volume of reminiscences, Dr. Washington Gladden shows that one the others. At last her opposition be- came almost unbearahle, and when the vote ona day stood, as it had so many times before, four to one, and she had put forward her old excuse that she could not conscientiously vote for the measure, my friend turned toward her and blandly inquired: “Mrs. Blank. did you ever hear the little boy's definition of conscience?” “No,” she replied. “It is that thing in you which says ‘T won't.”” The vivid blush which overspread the woman's face showed that she saw the point. One must certainly weigh carefully is free from all opinionativeness or self- will before he sides with the minority. But, on the other hand, in making his decisions he must put just as far from him the fear that if he follows the right he may stand alone or at least with but a few. All the reforms which have lifted mankind started with a man or a group of men who were for a while in the minority. That is equally true as respects such great issues as human slavery, or such mi- nor matters as particulars of our wardrobe. The man who carried the first umbrella on the streets of Lon- don wa hooted. Minorities in the course of the years position after another that he cham- pioned when but a few could be rallied to its support, has come to be gener- ally accepted.
