The Cireulation ol The Bulletin. The Bulletin has the largest elr- eculation of paper in Eastern Commeeticut, and from three to four times larger tham that of any in Norwdeh, It la delivered to over 3,000 of the 4,068 houses Nor- wich, and read by ninety-three per cemt, of the people. In Windham it is delivered to over 900 houses, in Putn Danielson to over 1,100, and in =il of these places it is comsidered the local daily.

Some idea of the fight which Rooseveit men have been preparing for is to be gained from the conduct in the opening day of the convention. Thare were the same kind of tactics which characterized the campaign with cries of thief and plenty of bluff and bluster, but it was found that Taft possessed sufficient delegates to con- trol the organization by the choice of Zlihu Root as temporary chairman. This indication of strength with 558 votes to 502 shows the preference of the delegates, 18 others having scat- tered their votes or did not vote. Shortly before the convention open- ed, a coalition effected by the Roose- velt managers with the LaFollette forces brought Governor McGovern of Wisconsin as the comgromise candi- date for temporary chairman by the combined progressives. This strength- ened Roosevelt by 22, the remainder of the Wisconsin and North Dakota delegates scattering their votes, If LaFollette drops out on promises of being backed four years hence he will be doing what he has always main- tained would never happen. His dele- gates will stand by him, but not all will go for Roosevelt. It is surprising that LaFollette should sanction any support whatever of Roosevelt, after the treatment he has recefved. The advantage of the organization was an important point gained by the Taft forces and Senator Root will be the permanent chairman. Many of the delegates who supported him canmot, because of instructions, vote for the presideat, but while this applies to Illi- nois and Maryland, Hawaii and dele- sates in other states will return to the president in accordance with their instructions. Senator Root set well before the delegates the duties in- volved st the convention and laid stress upon unison and adherence o constitutional government As a forerunner of what may be ex- pected today, the opening of the con- vention gave promise of plenty of life and action and the nomination President Taft for a second term., the of AS MEASURE OF SAFETY, For the purpose of adding another measure of safety to the regulations concerning the automobile a number of cities have adopted ordinances for the purpose of restraining the misusers of the auto horns. The desired object Is less nolse and more safely, New Jersey has long been the battleground for automobile legislation and only re. cently passed a law against the muffie; cut-out in towns and cities, much the same as in this state Newark has been greatly bothered by the careless and indiscriminate use of the automoblle signals, u source of much annoyance from the standpoint of noise, The ordinance adopted there requires that every automobile shall be equipped with an adequate signal and deflnes such a signal as one pro- ducing an “abrupt note, sufficiently loud to be heard under all conditions of traffic,” but restricts its use to times when it is “necessary as a warning of danger.” The purpose in obviating the needless noise evil and restricting the signal for the purpose of safety, is one which has the sanction of all rea- sonable motorists as well as the gen- eral publc. This keeps the horn with- in the use intended for it and instead of being used simply to make a racket and attract attention. 1If the public knows that tha toot of a horn indicates danger it will be better prepared to avold aceidents; whereas the senseless use of sirens, horns and squawkers may mean anything from hilarious joy rides to danger, President Taft did rfght in vetolng the army appropriation bill, 1f Gen- eral Wood is to be fired by any sucl underhanded method the responsibility should fall where it belongs, There were fourteen million veters in America in 1908; but in 1912 thewe will be 17,000,000, If the {ncrease is what the democrats hope, they can pass Ephesians 11:12 to us, ‘What Roosevelt has been so loudly condemning as fraud in the national committes ho regarded as “a hilly %00d method” In 1908, wheh ho made hie friend president, Now Roosevelt is claiming that Paf: is trylng to wreeck the party, and ex- pects the people to believe he is in hig right mind whea he imakes such a statement, If Rooseveit was a maa of kis word he has been saying thinge which sught to disturb the nation—but what he BEEF TRUST BREAK UP. The announcement made by the Na- tienal Packing eompany; the $15,000,- 000 beef combination, that it will vel- untarily @isselve by the first of August relleves the government of a task of causing it to @isintegrate and the vel- untary aetion of the trust indicates that it is desirous of evereoming the inevitable In a peaceful manner. When the government lost its criminal suit/ against the packers for vielation of the Sherman law everything looked rosy for the meat men until the eivil suit was threatened and that brought forth an indication that congress in- tended to push it. The criminal suits brought out that there was a combination of the pack- ers for the control and regulation of their business and the intention now to wind up that trust is an admission of illegality or they would not hesitate to fight it, By gaining the advantage of "a {friendly dissolution the terms lie between themselves, which is likely to be more favorable fhan might be the dictates of the court. The suit will not be withdrawn by Attorney General ‘Wickersham until he is satisfied that the combination has been broken up and that the law is not being violated. It will require some close following of the steps taken and a well detailed statement of the action to satisfy that the trust has ceased to be. This evi- dence the government should insist on before it drops its suit. CREAM OF AMERICAN ATHLETES. Speeding across the Atlantic to the Olympic contests and at the same time keeping up their training, is a ship- load of athletes, the pride of America. They are bound for Stockholm, to compete in an international contest in athletics, probably the most elaborate exhibitions ever arranged. Those who will compete represent the best of their respective countries and a magnificent contest should be the result. America sends the best she had in athletic abil- ity, lusty young men, who were not selected by favoritism, but because they excelled in open competition in running, jumping, vaulting, weight throwing, swimming, marksmanship, riding, and, in fact, practically all the outdoor games for individuals com- mon to the country. The country has confidence in their ability, though far from home, to give a good account of themselves and bring home victory. All sections of the country are repre- sented, and there is just pride in the American boys who make up the team, In bodily culture, which has been a part of their training, and a part of the educational system of the country, they represent the top notch of devel- opment in muscle and nerve. The team from this side will be able to show that all is not devoted to money making endeavors, and that the instinet for victory, whether it he in business or athletics, 18 just as keen as among the nations on the other side of the water, and should this prove true with the present team of athletes there remains the consolation for them that the chips of the old block are not disgracing the stock from which they came, THE PRESIDENT'S VETO, Despite the excitement which is at- tracting the attention of the countr: President Taft is giving his close at- tention to the business which confronts him and his judgment is not deflected In the least by the other interests, He did as he was expected to in applying his veto to the army appropriation bill. It is not because of the exorbitant expenditure for the army that he re- fused to sign the bill, for the expendi- tures have been cut down rather than increased, but he made it plain th: one of the chief oljections he has to it is the provision which legislates Major General Wood from office, and and the disregard for recommendations of government officials, The taking up of such matters of legislation and injecting them into ap- propriation bills is not the proper to conduct the business. He calls at- tention to “the fact that a single pro- vision of the bill can cause such seri- ous consequences offers further evi- dence of the unwisdom of a method which deprives legislation of its usual safeguards of scrutiny and discussion.” The intention was to carry through this rider with the important matter of the money for the army. It did not work and it ought not to any more than the disposal of the com- merce court by the same method, and the president will doubtless veto the legislative, judicial and executive ap- propriation bill. Other presiden v found it necessary to do so before and congress will now have to get busy and thrash it out properls EDITORIAL NOTES.

THE BULLETIN'S SHORT STORY. \ Ry SR George Verner entered a crowded surface ear and found the last unec- cupled seat.” It chanced te be direct- infant. Verner attempted to beceme inter- ested in his paper, but the profile of theflrlahfldofhhnfiilmgmml with every turn of her head. Bhe was very young ,very new to motherhood apparently; the man behind knew this ‘hecause of the frantic, strained effort she made to keep the child in one pe- sition that it might not awake, A : more experienced mogher would have known t the baby would rest more comfortably in the easy relaxation of her arms. Verner rems d the fearful, breathless clutch with which he had first held his sister’s baby, but breakable toy had left him. There was that same fear in the eyes of the young girl ahead of him, and Verner knew that she was living in momentary dread of the child falling to pieces in her arms. He was beginning to sense the strain of her tense attitude when the car came to a stop. “Car ahead!” yelled the conductor. The passengers, in various stages ot peevishness, gathered themselves and their belongings and prepared to fol- low the conducter's bidding. Not so with the woman and the ba- by. She cast one startled glance at the CAR AHEAD ly behind a very young weman and an | glad, outgoing passengers, and then her eyes met Verners. There was a positive tragedy in their depths. Then it was that Verner saw the big sult case on the floor beside her. “How did she manage to get on the car if she couldn't get off with a suit case and a baby ! Verner asked him- self while he raised his cap and ad- dressed her. “If you will permit me—I will car- Oh—if yop would be so kind,” she gasped in a frightened little voice, and before Verner realized it she had put the baby in his arms and was about to pick up the suit case. ‘I am more used to this,” she said, with a half blush. “I can easily take both,” Verner told her as he swung the tiny infant against one big shoulder and took the suit case from her. Her eyes are decidedly coquettish for a young mother,” was his inward comment as he helped her into the car ahead. He found it within his con- sciousness to condemn married flirts, even though they had shaded gray eves and one elusive dimple. When he had put her comfortably into another seat in the car ahead she made room for him bestde her and sent up a smile into Verner's eyes. Although he felt himself to be tread- ing on dangerous ground, he accepted the offered seat. His destination was a few blocks beyond and he felt that his heart could not be hopelessly damaged in so short a time, He sighed as he wondered who the man might be who called this little beauty his own. “You seem perfectly at home with babjer,” the girl remarked by way of breaking a more or less awkward si- lence. “I have three of my own,” Verner told her In a half jesting manner, and wondered afterward why he wanted to that impression. X was all the girl sald, but her tone was noticeably colder, her attitude more aloof. The girl's frigidity spurred on the man'’s imagination, He talked glibly of a beautiful wife and children whom he had never seen, of a home he had nev- { er known, An inscrutable smile, not unlike that | of the Mena Lisa, hovered over the | yeung weman's eves and lips. Verner | wondered whether or not she was be- Heving him. 3 A_sense of irritation stole ever him at the in her eyes, and when his dréw near he was half haif serry: “I regret 1 cflnm’t go on with you and heélp yeu w) ou get off the ear,” he sald way léave taking. “I have a business engagement.” “Than ‘_g:u very much,” she replied sweetly, “but baby's father will meet us at end of the line.” Verner bowed formally and received a cool little nod in response. Nor did he give way to his desire to turn and watch the car as it whizged off toward the end of the suburban lne. The young woman looked regretfully after him; then she sighed as she gaz- ed down at the sleeping baby and drew him with greater tenderness into her gradually that feeling of holding a |arms. “He 18 too good looking even for dreams,” she murmured, end whether she referred to the small man in her arms or the big man on the street no ::e, perhaps not even the girl herself, ew. Another meeting did not occur until sPme three weeks later. It was at a dance given by the Suburban Yacht club. Verner entered the ballroom with a stately beauty on his arm. Before they had made one turn of the room he knew that the lttle mother was among the guests, and that she was popular ‘with a number of cavaliers. The state- Iy beauty felt Verner's arms stiffen around her waist, and wondered at his sudden lack of interest in her breezy conversation. She might be a widow, was the thought uppermost in Verner's mind, but -the brilliance of her costume and the existence of the tiny infant prac- tically denied this. Together with his condemnation of married flirts, Verner felt irritated and jealous because of the men who dan- gled over the girl's dance order. He avoided catching her eye as long as he could, but when she danced so close to him that he saw the mockery in her expression and her nod to him he could only return her greeting. Aft- er that Verner found that he was being introduced to her. “The ninth and 17th dances are leap year waltzes, Mr. Verner,” she said, looking laughingly into his eyes. “May I please have both of them?” “You may if I may have two oth- he put in quickly. She blushed swiftly and handed Ver- ner her card. “Have you a dance left, Miss Greg- ory?” another moth about the candle questioned the girl. Verner's startled, interrogative eyes er searched the girl's face, and she laughed. “You are not married, then?’ he questioned without for the amused listeners. “Not any more than you are, Mr. Verner.” She glanced at him from be- neath her lashes. “You know—I dldn't believe even for a moment that you had three kiddies.” Verner had the grace to blush, “Just the same,” he tol her, laug hlntfli'. “you deliberately tried to palm it baby off as vours.” “T did not,” she retorted quickly. “You took it entirely for granted. I was merely carrying my brother's ba- by over to my home and gomebody helped me both on and off the car. Of course—" she paused and glanced shy- 1y at Verner—“nene of us ever dream- ed of my having‘to change cars.” “And yet,” he looked deep inte her eyes, “it was fortunate—in this ecase, wasn't 1t?” He waited with laughter in his eves, but a compelling nete in his volee, Alice Gregery looked up and the dimple came into play, ‘“Perhaps it was,” she said—Besten Reeord. regard | nations to anchor their dreadnaughts | and go to Holland, A man in Illineis has married his mather-in-law.

A piece of glass, or of wood, or of iron is but some molecules that have come closer together. After a while the meeting breaks up, the members ad- journ, and go home or depart to form other assemblies. The iron rusts, the wood “burns, the glass shatters and dlssolves. So apples rot, trees fall and become soil, soil becomes flowers, flow- ers pass to fruit. fruit joins the con- vocation we call Man, which by and by returns to dust again, For Man 1Is but a temporary Organ- ization, composed of delegates from Oxygen county, Hydrogen district, the state of Nitrogen, and the cities of Carbon, Phosphorous, and the like. Those busy gentlemen arrive by the door of the Mouth and the Highway of the Throat, and meet in Stomach lob- by and Intestine corridors, there get their orders and go each to his place, sailing through arterial canals, some to operate as brain, some as muscle, others as bone or hair or skin or eye- lens or finger-nail. They are elected only for a time; their term of office expires when their successors arrive, and off they go back again to Earth and Alr and the grimming Sea. These little molecules, or call them atoms, or integers, are the real People. We are Assemblies; when we meet, that is birth; when we adjourn, that is death. We are Factorles to which thoughts, feelings, and will-notions come trooping at bi=th-morning and go away when the six o'clock whistle blows at death-night. || OTHER VIEW PQINTS Perhaps ’twere better to have had a team and lost it than never to have had one at all, if we had had & team. —New Britain Herald, Buppese, just suppose, that Rebert Lineoln were the choice of the con- vention, The son of the martyr a ean- didate fifty years after his father oc- cupied the same position.—Meriden Journal, ‘When the small bey in his Fourth of Fuly celebration strikes a fireeracker that merely flashes instead of explod- ing, he calls it in derision a “sisser.
