Bearles of Thompson has been sur- prised by the way his name has been bandied about as a prospective oppon- ent of Congressman Higgins in Wind- ham county, for he has no aspirations for the place and sees no necessity for & change. The. gentlemen who have mentioned him as a probable candi- cate have done so without conferring with him upon the subject. The Put- nam correspondent of The Bulletin has pesitive knowledge of the conditions in Windham county and he says that the Hon, E. W. Higgins of Norwich will heve a clear fleld 1a Windham county when the time comes to nom- inate him to succeed himself in his present office. That Mr. Searles will ot be opposed to him is a positive fact Congressman Higgins lets no inter- st Jax in his district, and for prompt- ness and efficiency in promoting the interests of his constituents, and the communities forming the Third district hie has made a record of faithfulness and of accomplishments which will compare with the record of any prede- essor. PRIVILEGES TO CIVIC SOCIETIES The fact is of country-wide inter- est that civic societies have been giv- en new postal privileges under the sec- ond class rate. A bill has passed the house admitting to the second class rate periodical publications of benev- olemt and fraternal societies, institu- tions of learning, trades unions, and professional, literary, historic, and sci- entific bodies, where no subscription list, within a strict interpretation of the law, can be shown to exist. It seems strange to see the second class rate to which so much ajpse and misfortune has been attributed =o liberaily enlarged, but it is a just thing and will be appreciated by mil- ons of Americans having membership in different civic and other societies and there is little doubt that under this extension of privileges the income of the postal department will be in- creased. The opening of a right kind of a percels post would be a greater con- veniemnce to the people and add mil- lions to the revenue of the department. It must come! A GOOD RAILROAD REPORT. It is the privilege of the press to praise as well as to knock the rail- roads, and it is a source of satisfac- tion to nete what good work the Am- erican railroads have been doing in the year 1309. The bureau of raflway news and statistics says that “never before in the history of railways has such a record for comparative safety been made as that recorded of Amer- ican refiways during the year ended June 30, 1800.” The showing is almost incredible. Of the 268 companies which reported to the bureau, no less than 247, oper- ating 159,657 miles of road and carry- ing 570,617,563 passengers, went through the year without a single fa- tallty to a passenger in a train ac- cldent. Ten of the remaining compa- nies, operating over 27,000 miles and carrying over 185,000,000 passengers, barely missed entire immunity by a single fatality each, The immune roads cover every section of the country frem Maine to California, and embrace not only the little branch line ten miles or so of track, but some of the great systems operating over 7.000 miles. The record represents a mileage nearly seven times that of all British roads, and equals the aggre- gute of all Furope, excluding Russia. The bureau report contains this im- pressive reflection: What immunity to fatalities to pas- sengers over such a vast mileage means may be partly realized from the fact that only twice in half a century has it occurred on the 3,000 miles of | British railways, and never, to the writer's knowledge, 80 far as statisties reveal, on the raliways of any of the sreat afvi Certainly it has never occurred on the aggrer gate railways of Europe. It would take seven consecutive years of im- munity from fatalties to passengers in train aceidents on British railways to enual this phenomenal record of Am- erican roads.” This showing is certainly highly ereditable to the management of these great roads and leaves no doubt as to A GOOD MUNICIPAL EXAMPLE. Throwing away franchises, or feath- ering the nests of the few at the ex- pense of the many, has not gone com- pletely out of fashion, but it deserves to be brought to a close that the peo- ple may come into their own. Forty years ago Minneapolis granted a franchise to a gas company to run for forty years, reserving the right to take over the business at the ap- praised valuation at the.end of that time. e time expired in 1910, and to chefk the people from taking the business this private company re- duced the price of gas to private con- sumers to 85 cents, and to the city, for street lighting and other public purposes, to 65 cents. Nor is this all It is provided that the prices shall be subject to regulation every five vears and the city is given a new option for the purchase of the plant at the end of 20 years. This seems to be one of the square deals which are so much talked about, but too infrequently demonstrated in these days. It has taken nearly half a century to mature it, but it is worth @all the time it took, and the whole community is sharing in the cream of this wise transaction EDITORIAL NOTES. Tt was the driest May, in forty years and to this is attributed the great fire losses. Because the ice-man smiles is no evidence that he is pleased with the weather. It is getting so that the republican factions are giving two definitions of a republican.

Happy thought for today: The first | law of nature is self-psgservation, but | don't try to do it in alcohol. Commander Hines gives the Central Americans notice that to fire on the American flag is one of life’s fatalities. New Haven is booked for a sane and safe Fourth—committed to better things whether she obtains them or not. The professor who sayvs this spring is a duplicate of the spring of 1833 is not in much danger of being dis- puted. The per capita circulation is 14 per cent. greater than it was a month ago, but every woman’s pocketbook will not show it. The man who cannot afford lability insurance is not wealthy enough to run an automobile and do justice to all concerned.

The Barnum Centenary. The 100th anniversary of the birth of P. T. Barpum occurs on July 5. Bridgeport is preparing for a suitable celebration on the Fourth. That seems peculiarly appropriate day, for it is entially American, was Barnum. But isn't there unconscious hWumor in th statement of the Post of that city wihen it says the Fourth should be chosen B use it will give an op- portunity for the public to observe the day without making a feature of blowing oif arms, legs and heads with cannon and explosives.” That does seem rather foreign, because the great P was the original affinity for freaks, and armless and legiess ones were dear to him. A headless one he would have prized beyond measure. But the memory of Barnum should be honored. He was in many respects | the care exercised in the public inter- est or of the safety of traveling upon American lines. ‘Tais i3 ths way the pre-election talk ran in Iowa: “The insurgent states men have not 1made it clear in respect to the way shey propose to increase the profits of the farmer by cutting down his prices. The farmer who re- mains in his field today instead of go- ing te the pells to slug the insurgent ccsas makes the mistake of his life.” a man worth remembering. He devel- oped the art and the courage of ady tising. he contributed vastly to the en- tertainment of mankind, he set an en- { during example for the youth of the | lang in fighting against an unkiud, fate and in overcoming discoutage- ments, and above all he was a loyal, public spirited and generous citizen.

It is the good u:n':g in life that render comfort to mind as well as to the body. If one thinks seriously of life's disappoint- ments they will discover that a great many of them are the outcome of dreams that did not come true—of ex- pectations which were without founda- tion. What we think the other person should do and what we hope he may aoccomplish_are of our minds, not his. If he felt what we feel he would not =0 often be a disappointment to us. We do early in life what we think is the best for children, and then later in life discover ‘we couldn’t have done worse. We are all fallable creatures, and we go stumbling through life be- cause we are.plain folks instead of sages. Everything that passes for wisdom, you know, is not. There is nothing like having an aim in life, but cne must be careful not to aim too high. Life has been made a barren waste to some people because they di1 aim tco high. You canmot see this: but many a young woman who is sitting alone, except when she gathers with the left Gvers, realizes the truth ' of this. They get to spinsterdom to| decover that woman cannot have whom she will for @ mate, or man either— most of them take those who will have them. We talk in these times of soul- mates, but in the days of Eden it was helpm The helpmate is the only | true mate there is, for this is the basis for co-operation, sympathy and har- and where thése three meet love is their midst. Too many good things have gone out of fashion in this world since the days ¢f Adam. | Science has .introduced us to the in- habitants of milk which in its pure state supports a good many varieties. Milk in all stages is populated by about 700 varietles of bacteria, in size from @ 20,000th part to a 300th part of an inc! They are round, spiral and rod- like, and they become of adult size in 20 minutes—life is short with them and they have to hurry. The honest cow gives down milk bacteria free, but the populour- air of the barn pollutes it in & few minutes. They rain into it at the rate of 2,350 germs a minute in the barn, and in the meadow they come at the rate of 650 a minute. Of | these 700 species of bacteria, 150 are pecullar to the dairy and some of these give good keeping quality to the butter ana some give the fine gilt-edged ticed for butter-making as a means of producing what s commercially known as the besi. The cow doesn't worry about these things—the consum- er ought not to. . a pretty ood specimen of humanity, if he is given to telling fish stories. He never tells all he knows. When he is in company glory- ing over the way the fish bit, you nev- er knew him to mention the way in which the mosquitoes bit, although if the trout had bitten with the same per- sistent sharpness he would hase come home with his creel full. He forgets the bites for blood in his ecstacy over things of larger good example to those who constantly complain of the little nettling things | of life. He always glows over the| trout he saw in the brook, and he never mentions those he saw held in a pri- vate collection in a cold spring to save the successful fisherman from failure. He knows where the reserve is and what a God-send it is, and still is mum. He is to be respected rather than de- rided. The angler i It is too bad that it can be truthfully said that it is easy for a married man to be polite to a pretty woman who isn't his wife; and the married woman who cannot tell him that he had better kéep his politeness for home use Is slow. I have noticed that it is always easier to do as we please than to do as we ought to whichever sex we be- long to. When it comes to faults the Creator saw that the sexes could bal- ance themselves if they were given only half a chance. It is a great head that knows what to do and just when to do it. Perhaps the genus homo could do better at this if it would just practice more. It has been said to be as much a sign of wisdom to know when to let go an opportunity as when to grasp it. If you do not think that it s, try it. Mother love is the most tolerant love there is, and perhaps there is none blinder or less appreciated by those whom it holds dear. It has been said without danger of contradiction that a man’s idiocies look like real genius to his mother; also that a young mother is so wrapped up in her first baby that | she is apt to boast of the way it has| It is a mighty good thing for humans that this is so, and it is not surprising that mother love is only second in human hearts to God's love. It forgives when all the rest of the world blames—it pities often when all others deride—it forgives when even the culprit realizes that it is more than he deserves—it is merciful to those who have been merciless. That was a neat_compliment given the boys of '61 on Memorial day. but there was another class in that Grand Army who deserve just as much praise, ang 1t is the men who had passed the military age and who could not be dra d to go to the front. There were a great many men above 45 who were to forget that the country had no claim upon them, and to voluntarily assume the hardshlps, perils and trials of ac- tive military life; and many of them lived through the war and returned home to enjoy the honors they had won on many a hard fought fleld. The many & boy in his 'teens to enlist, but it did not call out the grandfathers of '61, for they realized the risks, but love of country and pure grit must be credited to thém when they joined the forces whose motto “Give me 1ib- erty or give me death. #The season has arrived when we can say: “Now in my garden the flowers bloom and the butterflies idance.” It far more true of Nature's wilds, in whose pastures the gay-winged but- terflies flirt with the flowers and in whose forest-aisles the little blue but- terflies dance, the Hesperidae skip from bloom to bloom, and the wood- nymphs flit out from the shade inte the light spaces and then back again to quiet restinz places on leaves or ri.

At this moment 1 am on the north porch with my writing pad on my knee, writing in_the rain and delighting in the sunlight, glorying in both. Kit- Kat is sitting over against me, with his pretty paws folded and his sleepy eyes half closed. He is resting and purring, rejoicing and delighting, and ja as lazy as a petted cat can be. Sometimes I can tel! what he is think- ing of, but not always; never when he folds his fore-paws under his breast and narrows his eves to slits and yet is not asleep, but keenly alert, though no prey is within sight, hearing or sgent. And never when he withdraws into himself, regards the outer world from behind the cover of his eyelids and gazes at me with those strange, unseeing, inscrutable, animal eyes that reveal nothing. No, T do not even be- gin to understand Kit-Kat, neither the brain nor the heart of him, as, after years of the closest companionship, I might know him, one would think. I have learnea some of his little ways and habits. I know when he is ask- ing for food, and when he wants the door opened, and that when he arches his back against my feet and purrs he is condescendingly willing to have me talk to him and rub his head and pet him. Suppose it were a child that T had housed and homed and nourish- ed for half a score of years. Would I know the brain and heart and inner- most spirit of him any more intimate- Iy, or any less? Kit-Kat loves me af- ter his fashion, and has his own ways of showing affection—I would like to say “devotion,” but the word would not be true.
