ROUSE _— HAVE A GLASS OF SODA. The season for taking a eoel drink instead of a hot ome has epened, and it is an every-hour salutation, “Take # sode with me’" Americans are great drinkers and pretty soon there will be a hundred at the soda fountain to| ome at the bar. The size of our seft drink bill enough to make temperate folks sit| up and take netice. The venders of mineral waters took in nearly $7,000,- 000 (36,394.134) in the United States| in 1909, a slight increase over the fig- ures of 1905. The quantity sold was 64,674,456 gallons, at an average tail price of 11 cents a gallon. In dition over ,000,000 zallons was e: mated to have been used in the man: facture of soft drinks. There has been a steady increase in the prod mineral waters for the last the figures for 1855 being 1,31 value of the impo T in 1909 was $1,08 with an average of 31 cents a gallc When this is retailed at 5 cents a glass it fs easy o imagine that these wholesale figures will be small com- pared (o the retailers’ receipts which soN e must approach and perhaps exceed $100,000.000.

This is what the senator say can say this, though I am opposed to the, agreement. Its provisions do vioklence to my economic and politieal peinciples. [ recognize. howeyer, that pyobably a majority of the people in iis country are in favor of its enact- mént. 1 think President Taft is per- fectly right when he calls it a popular measure and asserts that there is a strong, sound, public sentiment in fa- vor of its adoption. This being true, as 1 believe it is, why has not Presi» dent Taft received more public credit ap@i more public praise? * ¢ o ¢ “Soon after Mr. Taft became pres dent, he signed a tariff law which he did not approve and which did not coincide with his campaign pledges. Before he had accepted the tariff bill that he aidm't like, Mr. Taft had in- duced the senate to enact a corporation tax law which hardly a member of the senate favored. I never saw that do before. Now, apparently, Mr. Taft is on the verge of repeating the experi- ence. More than a majority of the ate is oppesed to Canadian reci- notwithstanding the public sentiment in favor of it. Yet I be- lieve that we will give it our approval and that the agreement will go to Mr. Taft as he desires it without amend- ment. It cannot be said that we will do it through fear, favor, or hope of reward, %o far s the presiggnt is con- cerned. “1 kn told t procity w that what President Taft delegation of Grangers the other day is true and that he is not considering his political fortune in preasing Canadian reciprocity. So far as 1 have besn able to ascertsin. he does mot consider his political fortune in relatio nto any other proposal or action of his. Te cap it all, his re- ems assured and inevita- . and yet I don’t know a single re- publiean of conseguence in the senate or out of 1t who believes that Mr. Taft can be re-elected, It is a curious and unreal condition.” SWAMP LANDS THAT MAY BE RECLAIMED. seems possible that there of swamp land 1t hardly are 79,000,000 acres east of the Rocky mountains which may be reclalmed. This great total is given by C. G. Eillott, chief of drain- age investigations for the government, and his statistics include only those lands which may successfully be trans- formed inte profit-preducing farms. By states, the government's acreagq for these lands is given as follows: New York . acres Connecticut acres Massachusetts . acres Vermont acres Rhode Island acres Delaware .. . acres e ol acres New Hampshire acres New Jersey . acres This shows there are 289,784 acres n the New England states, over one- half ef which are located in Maine. To persuade the federal congress to recommend and authorize bond issues for swamp land reclamation will prob- ably be an important parp of the pro- ceedings of the Chicago meeting of the National Trrigation congress and Chi- ago business and railw: ested in this phase of the work will lend their efforts towards the success of this movement, which ‘already has been launched and given considerable impetus. CREATING A GOOD FEELING. The new president of the Missouri Pacific railroad believes in the reg- ulation of public service companies by the government. In a recent inter- view, he said “The public should havé semething ¥ regarding the laws under which roads operate. After all, the ds are created by the public and the public should control their cre tures. When the interstate commerce ommission was first created and an- ed certain rules under which 1d operate, there was a m railroad officials opposed the idea of public commission ‘interfering’ in private business, We now know a railroad is a public, not'a pri business. And some of us have luded that the public has a right o control railroads and other corpora- to hat tions. T see, froin newspap that James J.

A resolution raising a commission for the purpose of comstructing a bridge over the Housatonic river be- tween the towns of Stratford and Mil- ford stirrcd up considerable debate when it was taken from the foot of the ca'endar in the house Tuesday. Such opposition as was aroused —and there was a generous amount of it— was based on the principle that it would mot be wise for the state to enter upon an enoch of wholesale building or replacing of bridges over streams flowing through the state, and acting on such a bellef the committee on roads, brilges and rivers reported unfavorably on the resolution. It is held by the advocates of the measure that the bridge wanted is to replace one over nsvigable waters; that a bridge at this point is the connecting link in & great truak line highway be- tween York and many Connecti- cut points; that the present structure is narrow and unsafe, and that the cost of bullding a new structure would be too great for the counties of New Haven and Fairfield, which met the ble, is to be had for § Another class can now get into the swim.

On_motion of Repre- sentative Evarts of Milford the bill was finaily recommitted to the committee on roads, bridges and rivers. John L.
