In a year when unbossed conventions have predomi- nated added interest is directed to the Empire state and the outcome of the melections. It was indicated that Dix could not again be the democratic nominee and it was not without a struggle that Congressman William Sulzer gained the nomination. He is a New Yorker, representing the East Side, with 1its" vast population, and one who is calculated to overcome the effect of Oscar Straus’ nomination by the bull moose. Mr. Sulzer is not a particularly strong candidate through- out the state, but he is a worker and does not labor under the handicap of being Murphy picked. Oscar Straus was doubtless the best man the pro- zressives could have named, but he opposed by men who have been wsen by the delegates of their re- pective parties, an action which Id unite the forces. fu Job Hedges, the nominee of thé Jlican conventlon, is presented a jidate whose popularity extends rom one end of the state to the other, Iiis popularity increases wherever he speaks and his campaligning is likely to be the most effective. He combines humor with his ability and has had the experienca which qualifies him for the office. He Is u candldate who will make a strajghtforward appeal to the people and should sweep the state NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1912 TRUE TO FRIENDS, PRINCIPLES, DUTY. It is evident that the men of the west are doing some thinking for themselves as to qualifications of the presidential candidates, and that in so doing they are giving consideration t8 the records of the men. It is a candid statement which R. G. Brown of Min- neapolls, a prominent Harvard man, Wilson college men's club to add strength to their candidate, when h¢ says, “as & Harvard man, I feel con- strained to give all the support within my power to that son of Yale, whose sturdy, judicial and statesmanlike qualities, as demonstrated by his rec- ord in public office, have made him, beyond all other presidential candi- dates, the exponent of that spirit of Harvard which is signified in its mot- to, ‘Veritas.' “Because of his unflinching adher- ence to truth, President Taft deserves the support of every Harvard man. He has steadfastly refused to compromise with error. He has kept in the straight course dictated only by wise and de- liberate. judgment, uninfluenced by any selfish interests or by any mere poli- cies of parties or persons, He has been true to his friends and true to his noble principles and high sense of duty. “Mr. Taft has fought and is still fighting: for the cause of good govern- ment, for the cause of i ess and reform under our constitgtion. He stands today, in a greater measure than does any other living person, as the bulwark of our constitutional gov- ernment against impracticable and vi- clous innovations, heedlessly and ca- priciously advocated by those who blindly plunge down the path leading inevitably to a tyranny, either of mon- archy or of democracy, for this na- tion.” It is such sentiment as this which is gaining strength for the president every day. It is mot overdrawn, and it cannot be too often emphasized. He is pre-eminently the man of the hour in the country's political situation. BETTER OYSTERS. That step in behalf of better condi- tions for the oyster beds from which 50 much sea food comes for daily con- sumption, is one which those who know the conditions of rivers, har- ‘bors and bodies of water from which some of the oystérs are taken, must heartily commend. It is the result of an investigation by the health experts of the national department of agricul- ture, and it is their report which de- clares that sewage pollutes the natural beds in waters adjacent to New York at some points in the Sound, and also in Chesapeake bay. It is not strange that- this pollution should exist, with | the greai amount of sewage from large cities steadily increasing. This does not apply to all oysters, but these in specific localities. This is a result of increase in city and in- dustrial life. It is within the mem- ory of many that oysters were grown in the Thames river which were said to be of unusual excellence, but the time came when the pollution of the water made their use inadvisable. This does not mean that all oysters are bad, but it should mean that oys- ter beds should be located away from contamination. No one wishes to in- vite disease by such a method when it can be avoided. There will con- tinue to be plenty of good oysters, but it will be incumbent upon the grow- ors and the dealers to ses that they are properly protected. EDITORIAL NOTES. For a man in a glass house throw- ‘ihg stones the third-termer is the liv- ing example. s Do we neod a new president be- ‘cause the president did not take his predecessor's advice? A Tefdrmer is often a man who sees something he wants and can think of no other way to get it. The woman who misstates her age is only a little worse than the man ‘who verbally shrinks his property. The Baltimore & Ohlo railroad has 92,000 freight cars in service and ex- pects soon to add 2,000 steel gondolgs. Heppy thought for today: Men who ‘try to look wise, should they see them- selves, might realize they look other- wise.

No statement is made as to fluids. —— This is the month when ‘the janitor of the flat thinks it is not time to fire up and the shivering tenants re- gard him as a fiend. The Colonel says he is the naked issue. Tf he stands at Armageddon till election day in that garb he is liable to change complexion. The fact that the dogfish are being ground into compost at the rate of a milijon a year makes the fisherman look with more hope to the future. The straw hat has disappeared; but the low cut shoe may be in evidence at Christmas. Ankles do not seem to be so very susceptible to the cold. Canada is to have a new fish plant that has a capacity of four million pounds of frozen fish a day. This foreshadows what fish-eaters are com- ing to. Roosevelt took the Nobel prize as a peacemaker; but was one of the most bitter opponents of the best ar- bitration proposition ever presented to the nations. The new $10,000 bill is to have the picture of General Grant. If that was the only portrait of him ordinary people could hardly hope to get a glimpse at him. ‘What blind sectarianism is capable of doing is being pretty well demon- strated in Treland.

New Haven, Oct. 3.—Eastern Con- necticut students who are at Yale for the first time as undergraduates are registered in the class lists made out this week. In the academic the freshmen include Earle Russell Bragg of Central Village, Plerce H. Brere- ton of Apponaug, R. L. Alfred H. Chappell, Jr, and Gordon Bodenwein of New London, Harry V/ Champion of Lyme, Lawrence Joseph Casey of ‘Willimantic. The total number of men in the class of 1916 is 384, by the lists at Registrar A, K. Merritt's office. In the class of 1915, Sheffield sci- entific school, are entered Roger Mo: timer,Eldred of Norwich, Harris Sam- uel May of Woodstock, William Beach Olmstead, Jr., of Pomfret Center, Wa- terman Wilcox of Mystic. One of the eleven appointments of the Connecticut scholarships made from seventeen applicants has been awarded by a committee comprising Dean F. S. Jones, Yale college, Direc- tor R. H, Chittenden of Sheffield sci- entific school and Dr. William H. Sall- mon, secretary of the bureau of ap- pointments, to R. Mortimer Eldred for New London county. In granting these scholarships, which cover free tuition for ome vear in Yale college, amounting to $155, or in the Sheffield scientific school, $168, the commiti made selections from those whd pass- ed entrance examinations for admis- sion, emphasis being laid on quality of work and strength of character and promise. Special consideration is giv- en to recommendations from high school principals and from the presi- dent or other officers of the local Yale Alumnl association. Other young men who have returned to their studies in Sheff are Clayton M. Gager of Norwich, who is enrolled in the civil engineering class. Willlam Hugh Burns of Willimantic 18 back as a_member of 19138, and C. C, Ayres is also on the list of students. Thomas K. A, Hendrick, formerly of Norwich, returns from New York as a member of the Sheff senior class and is ac- tively en&ued in running'es a mem- ber of e university cross country team, which is training for the fall meets with Princeton, Harvard and in the intercollegiates. Max Henry Fo- ley and Gecrge L. Randall of Norwich and Thomas Wheeler of West Hart- ford are Norwich Free Academy grad- uates in 19148, and from Killingly Austin J. Brooks is registered. Over two hundred men have turned out in the past week for the university and freshman crews, sixty-eight have reported for fall baseball practice, and eighty men were presented in an- swer to the university track and cross country call. At the meeting of the rowing en- thusiasts Captain Snowden attributed last year’s defeat to the impossibility of changing from an old stroke to a new one in 8o short a time. He start- ed fall rowing on Monday. Willlam H. Corbin of Hartford, of the crew of 1888 which rowed the course in the rec- ord time of 20 minutes 10 seconds, spoke of the decadence of/ Yale ath- letics in the past few years. No stu- dent now In college had seen a vic- torious Yale crew, Only the seniors have seen a champlonship team in any sport. There has been a feeling among many graduates that Yale men are trying for their Y's rather than for a victory, indeed, the honor ang value of the Y has been somewhat lost. * Chairman C. E. Allen of the rowing commitiee for two years on the crew, belleved rowing seriously undertaken nlgoad as any ten college courses, he said. Baseball practice began Wednesday afternoon under Captain Blossom and Coach Quinby and the track men have been out since cBllege began. . Secret prac was un by the Yale football squad thny :v'eak u:yd be- hind closed gates there has been much long that it is known the recent flood was the worst in 300 years. That's about 50 years before Norwich was settled. Candidate Wilson says: “The farm- ers of America do not need protec- tion!” What in the name of con- science did the Grange froth so at the mouth for over reciprocity with Canada? Reports indicate that James ' J. Corbett has given his last boxing ad- vice. The jab below the belt line which the doctors gave him showed that the strong as well as the weak have their vulnerable spot. The third-term party’s platform in Connecticut demands that “a pure quality of liquor be sold” in the sa- loons. It is this sort of thing that makes Chafin chafe, says the Kansas City Journal. It must also make Dr. ‘Wiley smile. The result of the craze for speed and stunts, whether it is by the auto, motorcycle or aeroplane, is be- ing repeated over and over again. No one seems to profit thereby. Only those who are killed cease taking the reckless, Uaredevil chances. The man who intends to vote for Roosevelt to destroy him, stands in his own light. He is trying to over- come a wrong by a negligent regard for his fellow man and endangering the welfare of the country. He is throwing away prosperity and beckon- ing the return of Cleveland "times. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Down With Labor’s Enemy. Mr. Editor: The great Oscar Under- wood reported that President Taft ve- toed his bill touching beef. In the Underwood report we read beef val- ued at $5.30 per 100 pounds abroad pays a tariff tax equivalent to 25.88 per cent., or $1.50 per 100 pounds. This bill proposed to remove this entire tax. Among the Condensed A. P. Cable- grams Tuesday we read: “Prices of meat and bread in Germany are now the highest in the world, and only the very rich can eat beef.” Mr. Underwood sends out another report as a campaign argument. Here it is: “The cotton bill reduced the duties on cotton manufactures from 48.12 per cent. to 27.06 per cent., a Te- duetion of the tariff burdens under this schedule from not less than $200,- 000,000 to about $12,000,000 for a year, or a saving of about $88,000,000 for a twelve month period.” Mr. Underwood does not say that the cotton weavers who weave that goods and the spinners who spin the varn ere the highest paid operatives in the world. under the =lashing of eotton goods schedule during the Wilson tariff days that Ame were lucky Mr, enouvh to get steady work : the very lowest wages. ood continues; “The bili receivi Under Neither does he say that| an cotton operatives who | IAL YALE LETTER attention paid to interference, for- warq passes, quick starting, and some hard scrimmages, in an effort to over- come weakness in preparation for the university of Syracuse on Saturday. The regular coaches, Howe, McDevitt and Scully, have been assisted this week by Walter Camp, Willlam H. Corbin, Harry Vaughn, Dr. W. T. Bull and John Field, head coach last year. The eleven has not shown itself either a scoring machine or a team with a good defense in either of its first two games. Holy Cross Saturday had the ball within a few inches of the Yale goal line and on a fumble Yale lost nearly as good a chance to score. It was a clever forward pass from Cap- tain Spalding to Cornish that gave Yale its only score. In_speaking of the new rules, Wal- ter Camp, the football authority, said that a quick running game will re- sult, with many shifts to draw out the defense, so that a light, experi- enced team may overcome a heavy team that resorts to old-fashioned football. End runs and forward pass- es will be especially valuable. The old, yet ever'new, idea of Yale as a place for “work” has been again impressed on another swarm of fresh- men, awkward but ambitious. At the receptions to the new classes, Presi- dent Hadley said that the ideal democ- racy is not a place where everybody is equal, but a place where everybudy‘ is doing the same thing. It is a place where everybody is working for the community, where everybody in the community appreciates the work done, and gives a stimulus to the best ef- fort. Opportunity which brings a stu- dent into competition is the best kind by which he “ecan mieasure himself with his fellow men. Of course, there are mistakes made in the awarding of the prizes in these competitions, as well as in anything else, but taking them in the large sense, you will find them here at Yale squarer than you will anywhere else. But get your suc- cess by pushing yourself up, not-by pushing another man down. Every Yale man, when he goes out into life, if he has used his college course here, finds he knows the mean- ing of hard work, The life of our great American nation comes to him, not as something strange, but as a part of him. . For the convenience of visitors, Yale university ha: anged to continue throughout the fall the services of a guide to those who wish to inspect the campuses and buildings. The guide starts at 2 o'clock each afternoon from Phelps gateway, except Saturday, when he starts at 1.30 o'clock. It is a service which for some. years, has been furnished during the summer and because of its value may he continued the whole year. In former {un, by long custom, cheering has been conspicuous by its absence at Yale fleld, up to the final big games with Princeton and Har- vard alternate years. This fall there has been started a strong current of opposition against this silence early in the season, and an effort, in which graduates and students are co-operat> | ing, is on foot to have organized | cheering from the first game on. | The spirited cheering and singing | of the large contingent that came down from Wesleyan for the first game of the season was one of the inciting causes. Another important result will be that with preliminary practice, the organized cheering, for which the Yale-Harvard and games are noted, will be even more effective than hitherto, while some of the same enthusiasm and atmosphere will be lent to the earller games with the smaller colleges, which games, by the way, often approach in actual playing the standards of the larger. It 1s hoped that the cheering may be begun at once. ’ placing sugar ‘on the free list would have saved during & year not less than $115,000,000 to the consumer. The tariff tax on sugar amounts to about 11-3 cents per pound.” But Mr. Underwood forgets that the great beet sugar industry that under protection has become enormous would have been almost completely destroy- ed by the importations of sugar raised and gathered by cooley, cheap Japan- | anese and Kanaka labor, whereas to- day the milllons of dollars spent by the American people for sugar are shared by thousands of farmers and tens of ‘thousands of the highest paid farm la- bor in the world. . Mr. Underwood continues: “Under our tariff law a barrel of flour valued at §4 ‘abroad is taxed 25 per cent. ad valorem at our ports, or $1 on the bar- rel. This bill removed the entire tax.” Mr. Underwood does not explain why ‘bread made from.this flour is the high- est in Germany of any place in the world. He does not explain the steady increase in cost of living in free trade England. He does not explain a con- tinual cost of all life’s necessities in France, Germany, Austria and, in fact, the whole world. Why doesn't some democrat tell us that the wages in free trade England are higher than here, and also that they are increas- ing? Mr. Underwood shows how the wool reduction proposed by him would greatly reduce the price of a suit of | clothing, notwithstanding the fact that the wool in the suit is the very lowest thing about it. Mr. Underwood cannot tell you woolen mill operatives where vou can get as high wages un- der free trade in woolens as you do here. Mr. Underwood, Mr. Wilson and all | the rest of them cannot show where | the tariff reductipn on wool is going to greatly decrease the pri of your suit of clothing, when it postivels proven that the entire material in a $22 suit of clothing, including buttons, lining, thread and all trimmings is less than $4.50. The reduction in woolen tariff will not make an actual difference of 50 RHEUMATISM ATTACKS THEHEART Rheuma Will Get Rheumatism Before Rheumatism Gets You, Here's auother man freed from the bondage of Rheumatism; there _are hundreds of others.

That is to say, I believe all I (or he) understands of it, which is not much. I gee goodness in socialism. Its fdeals are captivating. It is soundly practical and Utopian; and I love Utopla. Pure anarchy simply means every man so highly developed that he needs no outward laws, and surely this is the very aim of Christianity and of all culture. s The single-taxers make out their case perfectly, and show how their programme would cure a thousand ills. So I acknowledge the truth at the core of every religious sect.
