It also brings to light one of the strongest reasons why he should make this contest, why he should change his mind and repudiate his solemn promise to the people, and why he had the temerity to attempt to break down the tradition of the mation. It shows that he is playing the game protect the interests of the “good trusts” for whom he has been the guardian angel in the past It shows that during his term as pres- ident he was kowtowing to trust pat- ronage, and the correspondence brought before the senate from the department of justice shows conclus-| ively that he prevented the suit being | brought against the Harvester irust. It was not considered an advisable thing (o antagonize the Morgan in- terests at that time and the suit was dropped. There was no such partiality shown by President Taft. He saw his| duty and followed it. The Harvester trust and the Steel trust, which Pres- ident Roosevelt intentionally passed by, because they were Morgan inter- eats, were brought inte fecus. They meeded attention and steps were taken | against them by the administration | with the intention of giving justice te all and favor to none, The result that George W. kine until recently a partner c to is Morgan, and prominent in IHarvester trust affairs as far back as the Roose- velt administration, has jumped into the fray. Circumstances tend to bear out the belief that he threw Roose- welt's hat into the ring and demanded that the ex-president keep it there and the Colonel best he can to repa age. He has given unlimited money backing, which has also been Bs good fortune in the past. | Those letters show the true condi- | tlon of affairs and how far his cham- is humbly doing the his trust patron- been | plonship of the people’s cause is from | the real purpose of his fight for the| presidency & third time, The Har- veaster intereats evidently feel that it| will be easier and more satisfactory to defeat the administratic by such methods and by putting forth Roose- velt than to expect to gain su in defending the government's probable suit or plan for dissol on, It re- solves itself into a guestion of mxgh‘ vs. right.

It is not believed it will pre- | vall, but that next Tuesday 1 show that Ma chusetts believes as does Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont and New Hampshire, that President Taft is the only logical republican wdidate. So far this has been a Taft week. PEACE DAY PLANS, Imternational peace is probably as far off as the millenium, yet vearly progress in that direction is being stimulated by the determined and un-\ dismayed efforts of the organizations working for that end. One of the chief arguments used is the vast expenditure of money that is made for military and naval purposes, which could be so profitably used in bettering conditions and educational work. Peace day is observed on May 18, and the United States bureau of education has pre- pared a bulletin containing sugges- tions and material for the ob: of the day in the public schools education of the children on the im- portance of peace, as well as patriot- sm, Arbor and Bird day, and the memory of the great men of the na js thereby stimulated. The fu of land depends on the suc generatior and early info; 1wtiont prepares them for later decis- lons. In discussing yulletin present expenditure, the four countries of Ger- many, France, Great Britain and the nited States will spend in the next ity years the life of one generation r the support of armies and navies, an amount sufficient to build 20,000,000 mtry and village houses at an aver- ra cost of $2,500 each. With six in ‘h of the houses they would furnish mes for 120,000,000 people, which is ne than the total present population hese four countries living in vil- es and the open country, Thus the of war is consuming the homes ihe rural and village population of se great nations in a single genera- ' on 1T the cesive the cost at the rate of of war, SAYS the Roosevelt openly claims Vermont.i 1@ Montpelier Journal says the claim preposterous; and that Roosevelt grows more reckless and unscrupulous in his campaign methods every week.

Within the next few weeks the tax- payers bf Norwich will have before them the question of street improve- ments, For several years past there has been a gradual betterment of the streets in the center of the city in the interest of permanency and appear- ance. In accomplishing this, vitrified brick has been emplayed and its only objections are cost, unsatisfactory re- sults in patching, and its slippery sur- face. There is need of continuing the im- provement of streets in the interests of permanency. The original cost is large, but the upkeep {s small and the wearing surfaces of such streets last for many years, It is proper that some attention shounld be paid to Franklin and Wash- ington streets, which the taxpayers will have an oppertunity to express themseives on in June. The need is apparent and the sireets are the logi- cal ones for the extension of the im- proved street plan. For a long time ‘Washington street has been pushed aside for improvements elsewhere, and Franklin street, the one outlet north from the center of the city where hills can be avoided is one of the busy thoroughfares with much travel and the natural direction for business to expand. Tts macadam is as bad as that in Washington street. The rec- ommendation that Hassam be used on ihese streets at an expenditure of $18,000 will mean permanent, dustless, non-skldding roads, with a two-inch } wearing surface, and the cost one-half that of vitrified brick. It permits the making of repairs without holes and if the wearing surface should, after a long period, be worn off, it permits of replacing it with a new one at :mdli cost. Kconomy and equal permanency to brick is guaranteed.

All, however, are worklng‘ for peace, but in the case of the rail- | road the situation is extremely bad. It | has over it the interstate commerce | commission, which only recently said | that rates could not be increased, but | it does not say demands cannot be made on the roads which would cause | such increases. Some of the roads may be able to increase the rates and meet the out- lay without increasing freight and passenger rates or putting a mortgage on the property, but there are many which cannot, one, in particular, being in the hands of a receiver. The inter- state commerce commission hag proved a block to the old-time method of| meeting the demands of employes, and | it is that block which holds up the railroads from acting now. In other words, the commission is protecting the public, for all such advances in wages are taken from the public. It is the public which is vitally concerned m every strike, and being protected | now the problem must be met in an- other way. Therefore, the question A s hew will it be done, provided the | arbitration committee finds for the | engineers” WIll the interstate com- | commission yield, or will the he cut? or merce EDITORIAL NOTES. |or | of the undergraduates, NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, APRIL 26, 1912 BULLETIN SPECIAL YALE LETTER |JPoli's Broadway Theatre .

New Haven, April 25.—Even theugh the New Haven team of the Connecti- cut league suceeeded in administering a defeat, 10 te 6, to the Yale univer- sity nine at the fleld on Tuesday this week, the prespeets for a champion- ship intercolleglate baseball team nev- er appeared brighter. Yale seems to have an exceptionally well balanced team, one that hits quite as well as It flelds, and whese pitching staff, at Jeast in the college games so far. has lbeen found consistent and dependable. In the midweek game with Holy Cross Wednesday at the field the unl- vergity team had a walk-away with the visitors, Yale bringing in seven runs in the third inning by a series of well placed hits, The score was 8-2 when rain stopped the game in flw #ixth inning, With Columbia last Sat- urday Yale had an easy victory, 4-0. Yale will meet the New Haven team, which played its first game of the sea- son Sunday with a defeat hy Montreal, 3 to 2 again at Yale field.

Hely Anothar new a as to university improvement has been launched. The location of the new University library that will have to be bulit within the next few rears to lodge the growing Hst of books, some 769.000, that Yale possesses, has furnished material for discussion and letter writing for some weeks. Now the need of a life, is something that Christian as- sociation budldings, Byers in Sheff. and Dwight hall in Academic, or not even Mory's, to go without the pale of the campus, fall to fill, The English uni- versities have them, it ts urged, Penn- syivania has its Haughton hall, Chi- cago s Commons, Harvard its well! known Union. Why not Yale? The faculty favors the idea, at least Dean Jones and several others who weére in- iewed do. Prof. Abbott of the Scientific school, who is a gradpate of Oxford,thought it a peculiar circumstnnce that Yale, which is so famous for the spirit its undergraduate social life, has thus far failed to establish such an in- stitution. He suggested that the es- tablishment of such a meeting place, built on the west side of University square, connecting with the Yale din- ing hall, gnd ocompleting that quad- rangle, would be the most desirable single addition to undergraduate re- sources which could be imagined. “Such a location at the very center of the university could not fail to pro- mote that much desired and much talked of purpose of drawing together men from every department in a way which would certainly tend to the uni- fleation of ail interests in a natural and agreeable fashion. ¥t would, be- ing connected with the dining hall, have the facilities of the latter's kitch- en; and in addition to being of use and value to the students, it weuld atd wonderfully in meeting the increasing demands of commencement week. Dean Jones thought that “the plan deserves the thoughtritl consideration alumni, faculty and corporation.

The amount of money in the Roose- velt campaign leaves no doubt the in- | teresis are desirous of having him win, | Auto fire apparatus was one of the important factors that Waterbury had | on Its side in its recent firebug scare. How many ve militant suffra- gettes, seeking martyrdom, would have stood by their husbands like Mrs, Isi- dor Straus? The kind of preservative Roosevelt | using to “save” the republican party | dangerous to the people as ben- zoate of soda. ‘What Roosevelt Taft iz for the trusts; should have said: the people and against I am for the big business | and against the people. It is estimated there are 80,000,000 suns in space, and if they average three planets each, that makes a pret- ty large family of worlds. The Colonel thinks Taft has not the qualities of a commander—does very well as a lieutenant. He comes very near saying, “Look at me!” The British troops marching at night must carry a red light in their rear so that they will not be run down by motor vehicles and automobiles. Col. Edward Green has had 1,000 proposals since January 1, not because this iz leap year, but because he is the son of the richest woman in Amer- ica, While American free states are re. fusing to recognize the ability of wo- men, Uruguay commissions a2 woman as a diplomat te serve the country at Brussels. As funny as it might have seemed, everybody would have enjoyed seeing the Titanic’'s 2,200 passengers coming into New York harbor on the German Frankfurt. Inasmuch as Medill McCormick, publisher of the Chicago Tribune, is one of the Harvester trust, it is easy to see where Roosevelt secured such support in Illinois. Capt. Thomas Baldwin, on his re- says he made | enough from his flights in Japan to him for life. They must ha &s ral as they are courteous over there. liber After spreading It b.roadcut that | Taft was a friend of Lorimer's, Roose- velt has retracted and now deciares that Lorimer was friendly to Taft. In other words, any bad politielan op- posed to Roosevelt a friend of the president’'s, according (o the Colonel, 11ng 20 minutes each way for central i meeting place for undergraduate social | two. Vanderbilt, the magnificent, and Welch, the dark and gloom, are wm-‘ pared with disastrous results, while | old Connecticut is entirely beyond words. Then Lawrence, which Storer at Yale is making famous, has not the slightest harmony with Farnam, its neighber, and Dwight Memorial, the newest member of the campus family of dormiteries, and which will be ready in September for the incoming freshman class, looks strangely out of place among its neighbowrs. And so in Berkely oval and in Sheff. The only encouragement that is given is that the two big laboratories on Plerson- Huge square are going to harmondze ir design; and the prayer of the archi- tecturally inclined is that the new li- brary, if it goees on Plerson square, as it will according to the westward movement of things, will conform to its surroundings. | There is a prospect for next year for' xnol a few of the students of the Aca- demic department that is not looked forward to with especially keen antici- pation. It is that the new Sloane physics laboratory, out on Prospect street, on the Pierson-Sage square, will be used next year in place of the old laboratory on Library street, just |a few steps off the campus. Still the | faculty has been foresighted in allow- the trip |out and back, from which it may be | caleulated how long will be the walk that the several hundred students of | physics will enjoy regularly three| times a weelk next year. In the past the freshmen have been allowed to substitute two walks to Yale field and “k for one period of their compui- | sory gymnasium work. In the future it is suggested that a course in physies will also serve to meet the freshman requirements “in gymnastims. How- ever, the faculty have not decided. Governor Baldwin delivered two more | {of the annual Dodge lectures on the' | Responsibilities of Citizenship this week. On Wednesday night he spoke | on The Educated Man as a Creator of | Public Opinion, urging optimism and the promotion of public confidence in the soundness of our institutions. Each century in modern times has been better than its predecessor, the gov- ernor said, and to stand as well as the | average of men in your community is, | comparatively considered, to have at-! | tained some measure of success. The | educated American finds his largest | opportunities for leading public opin- fon in the ordinary intercourses of| common life. When, after long constderation and | discussion, Dean Jones assigned last year the south end of the campus tn] the seniors, the opposite end to ths- sophomores, and assigned Berkeley | oval to the junior class, it seemed as if the dormitory guestion was settled. This week, however, in a plea by jun- dors to be allowed to remain united in Berkeley oval for their senor year, the location of the classes has become agaln a live topic, although there is not much chance that the present plan will be changed. The tradition that the senior should spend his last year on the old campus would probably be too strong for the {inmovation, and though there is an objection on the | part of a few that Welch, Connecticut and Vandderbilt are less comforbable, the majority of the juniors prebably will be glad to choose the old dormi- Cortlandt Barker essee and Manager.
