President Taft reached Washington om Sunday after having traveled 15000 miles throu. states and hav- ng in 57 days spoken 305 times ta the people, estimated to aggregate at cast five million citizens. This greatest tour ever made by an American president has net in any way worn upon him and he was re- markably fresh in appearance when he left his train in Washington for the White house The president is well pleased with the manner in which he was every where received and what he ha learned and observed in his journev- ngs inspires him with kope. The d affection of republicans he found to have been very much exaggerated, and the party is standing firm for the pro- zressive republican policies Taft rep- resents. After a rest of a few davs, the pre dent will begin work upon his mes- sage to the Sixty-second congress. which comes in three weeks from to- dav. FIVE YEARS OF REFORM WORK, The Rev. Rennetts C. Miller has just made a report of his five years work in Connecticut as a reformer, to the advisory council, in which he says: T have given about 1,500 public ad- dresses in the past five vears—an av- erage of nearly one a day. Four-fifths of thess have been given without com- pensation. 1 have addressed about 150000 children in the public schools and elsewhere on the cigarette and other perils. I believe these addresses have been an important factor in pre- veniting thousands of boys from be- ginning the cigarette habit. circulated over a million pages of literature in Con- neeticut during the past five years, thus doing what Lincoin said was more important than passing laws or rendering decisions—educating public sentiment. I have published the state iaw on obscene literature and circulat- ed it, more or less, over the state as a warning to careless or indifferent newsdealers along this line. The supreme mystery of my five vears’ work here is that while it has iterally, received the hearty commen- dation of thousands of the best peo- ple in Connecticut. yat our financial support has been a constant disap- rointment. Of course, I recognize that there are many organizations, charities and philanthropic enterprises in Connecticut doing noble work, that are calling for contributions and “col- lections” from the generous people of the state. Still, it is hard for the writ- er to understand why such an impert- ant work, as he has been o often as- 1red that he is doing, should suffer »r lsck of funds. I have spoken in hurches, large and small, all the towns and citiés of whether or not I received an for our. wo T Our bureau has { some of . the in nearly | the state, | “offering” sympathize with the churches in the many appeals that | come to them. and I have never un- | pressed this phase of our work. | Perhaps this explaine why 1 have | never received but one collection that might be called large and that was | |town would be very much dryer than Quile a bit less than $100.

The vital question is, do the people here, who sve in my work, want me to stay “agerly enough to adequately suppert our work? My decision, in justice to 7 family, will be largely influenced the people’s response to this ques- v within the next %0 daye.” ne Manchus are mot as good as trhe tried to look te the revolution- ts.

Ellison of the Na- tional Rivers and Harbors congress, who has'been in Washington making the preliminary arrangements for the cighth annual convention of the con- gress. which meets at the New Wil- lard December 6, 7, §, regards (he forthcoming sessions as the most im- for improved waterways. “Not in twenty years has there been so many new faces in the lower house of the national legislature as are in this the Sixty-second congress,” sald Captain_Ellison. “These legislators will be called upon to pass a water- way ‘budget and it is therefore highly necessary that they have an intelli- gent grasp of this very important subject. My understanding is that the edict has gone forth from the leaders of the majority to cut everyihing to the bome, which, if it is followed liter- ally, might seriously jeopardize the passage of a river and harbor bill. It therefore behooves the friends of wa- terways throughout the country to at- tend the coming convention of the Na- tiona! Rivers and Harbors congress and to show our lawmakers that the old piecemeal policy of makink ap- propriations for the improvement of our rivers and harbors and canals is a thing of the past. That in its stead has come a better and wiser policy of making annual appropriations which is in the interest of economy and ef- ficiency. In my judgment the coming convention will be the Jargest and most enthusiastic we have ever held.” BRIDGEPORT'S FIRST EXPERI- ENCE. Bridgeport's first experience with the votipg machines was most satis- factory and surprising. The Bridgeport Post of Wednesday said: “Just a word about the voting ma chines.

Those who do not know anything about voting machines and still fear their accuracy, ought to have their apprehensions put to flight by such a result as this upon its first trial. EDITORIAL NOTES.

Question Box Q.—Are we to belisve the B of Jonah and the whale? Answer.—There should be no doubt in the minds of any as to the truthful- the fish. We need not necessarily suppose that it wasa whale that swal- lowed the Prophet, as the Greek word ketos signifies a “huge fish.” There have been discovered the fossil re- mains of animals and fish that were far lirger than any in existence at the present time. Some of these monsters, seketons of which may be seen in prominent museums, fe story measured more than a hundred feet in | length, and their other measurements were in proportion. The Lord who cre- ated these would certainly have neo difficulty in preparing a great fish to | hold the Prophet for the period of three days. However, the principal reuson why this story should be ac- cepted, is that our lord Jesus vouched | for it. (Matthew xil, 46.) And twelve g00d men and true, the Apostles, vouched for the teachings of Chris If we are disposed to reject this testi- mony then, to be honest in the sight of God and men. we should cast aside the Rible and join the ranks of those who have not hope, no faith, and who regard with suspicion every line of good and reliable testimony, tablespoonful of butter, one teaspoon- | plates o days, but it is a pneflul idea sii the matter of pro- viding a special wrap for every [rock suitable for street service Is one to give the economist pause in this pe. riod of high talloring.
