PROTECTION BENEFITS WORK- MEN. & An instance of the great benefit which the protective tariff has been to the industries of this country is shown in the case of the American automobile business, which has not only been given a start but become one of the great industries of the country. It has resulted in much better salaries for ‘ mechanics, bas built up cities and giv~ en. employment to thousands which employment is made steady and cer- tain, thus adding an additional asset to the future of the army of employes engaged in that line of work. Protection in that industry has re- sulted In this country progressing further than others, with the result that where foreign built cars were in use, the demand has disappeared ex- cept perhaps among the rich, who, inm satisfying certam desires to be dif- ferent, get a mathine from across the water. Not only is the American bus- iness taking care of the trade in this country, but it is also doing a bdig business in other countries, cars val- wed at millions being sent to all na- tlons, and even in England it is the American car which is capturing the trade. ‘When Americans buy a car made in this country, which ninety-nine per cent, of them do, they pay no mere for it because of the auto schedule in the tariff law, but it does benefit the American workman, who has plenty ta do, with wages ce as high :li' :.m in England and four times as a8 “sre paid in Italy. . NO HOOKWORMS HERE. The conditions existing in the north, the climate and the population are in its favor when a number of evils in the shape of disease are considered. There are sufficlent diseases which prevail in this latitude, but fortunately there is mot numbered among them the terrible hookworm, which is the scourge of the south. For the purpose of determining whether it was' the hookworm or other causes which caused the conditions in the south, Dr. C. W. Stiles has made a study of New England eonditions and particularly in cotton mills, and he finds that New England has no hookworms. Not a suspect was found in his visit to 26 mills, where he made records of over 4,300 mill hands. The result of lis study has shown that it is the hook- worm rather than the breathing in of the cotton mill lint which causes what is commonly known as cotton mill ammemia. Had it been the latter there would have been found an average of about 200 cases, in the New: England mffls visited. This is a matter which vitally con- cerns the south and in which the fed- eral authorities are deeply interested. The result of Dr. Stiles’ theory and investigation indicates that it is the deadly hookworm which has té be giv- en attention for the successful com- " bating of the many cases found, espe- cially among the negroes. As the re- sult of the investigation, New Eng- land, while sympathizing with the south, is happy that it does not offer encouragement to the dread disease, CONFIDENCE IN THE FUTURE. " No better indication of the coming of prosperity, the beginning of which has been manifested for some time, can be desired than the,unusual de- mand for labor which exists from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The railroads in the morth and morthwest are call- ing for men, the lumber industry is in a like condition, and in the steel pro- ducing section there has long been in- sufficlent help to keep up with the or- ders. Business is likewise in good condition throughout the east, in all lines of trade.. Prosperity never loom- ed up more auspiciously than it does at the present time. One buthper crop after another has been the bountiful contribution of nature, and despite the fact that it is a presidential year, confidence in the future is aiding the economic forces which make for pros- perity. This period of confidence and the strong indication that the better things predicted will follow, have developed during an administration which is in perfect harmony with a continuance of such conditions and a steady bet- tefment. It s an administration which has been devoted to the welfare of the people, the forcing of the trusts to obey the provisions of the Sherman inti-trust law like no other chief ex- ccutive dared to attempt, the conserva- ion of natural resources for the ben- ofit of the country and the building up nf home industries and better wages, in preference to providing a market for foreign invasion. Such contribu- tions to prosperity should not go un- récognized, and no one can afford to turn away from the course that leads to better times. HIGH COST OF LIVING. The high cost of living, about which so much is being heard, is not con- flned by any means to this country. It circles the globe and all countries are feeling the effects of it. Not food- stuffs alone are affected, but it ap- plies to mearly everything that comes in the list of human needs. Strong evidence of this is given in the re- ports to the state department from the consuls in the foreign countries, From India comes the report that the general cost of living has advanced fifty per cent. in the past five years, while from Australia, a community whieh is particularly prosperous, it s reported that the advance has been even greater. From Manchester, Eng- land, figures are given showing that food prices have taken a jump of ten per cent., while coal and other neces- sities have likewise advanced. In Germany prices are much higher, while in Vienna and Austria, on meat in particular they far exceed this coun- try. The great central truth concerning this state of affairs, says the New York Commercial, is that “money will not buy what it did a few years ago, its purchasing standard of value is not as great. The enormous increase in the world’s output of gold, greatly more than the monetary needs of the world, has lowered the standard of value (that is to say, pur- chasing quality), correspondingly. Im no other way can the extraordinary increase of prices, the world over, in the last ten years, and especially in the last flve years, be economically explained.” — THE CONSPIRACY CASE. The old and well known statement that murder will out, is proving true again in the cases against the men charged with dynamiting throughout the west. [t is evident that they in- tended to terrorize the country by their actions, and they had made an excellent start. There is always the mistake which criminals make of fail- ing to cover up every clue to, their action. It varies in different cases. It is often they talk too much or leave evidence which connects them directly with the crime. The McNamara brothers found it to their advantage to plead guilty, and now in the prosecution of the 46 men at Indiamapolis, Clark has pleaded pmty. This does not necessarily mean that the other 45 are guilty, but it weakens their case and shows that a conspiracy existed for the de- struction of a vast amount of property and likely the taking of many lives.| The cause of labor has suffered greatly from the action of this gang of men who wewe determined to accomplish at any cost their demands. It is a great service which has been ren- dered to the country by the running down of these men. They should re- celye their just deserts, and {n this the unions will doubtless be strong for such a course. Clark has saved expense, but that does not wipe away the crimes which have been commit- ted and which were planned. Thera appears to be no part for sympathy to play in this matter. EDITORIAL NOTES. 1t takes over 19,000,000 tons of coal to annually meet the wants of New York. i Is it the sign of a true trustbuster to get the trusts to furnish funds to make success sure? ' George W, Perkins, the idealist of the bull maose party, represents 19 corporations and trusts. Every day since Diaz abdicated his abllity to rule the Mexicans’ has be- come clearer and clearer. Baseball is getting to be as bad as politics. when men get to fighting over the merits of the best man. The man who makes most noise in political debate is usually the one who has the worst of the argument. The gunmen of New York have such friends in high places that they have lost all fear of consequences. Happy thought for today: The Mon- day clothesline has something to ‘do with making a woman's reputation. The farmers may have to pay high prices for what they buy, but the balance of trade seems to be in their favor. With the third-termer go sire of the solid west, it is noticeable what a Tot of personal attention he considers it needs. It will all be over in twenty-four days more, and then Wwill follow four years in which to emjoy or deplore results, T-A-F-T is the way prosperity is spelled and there’s no way of simpli- fying it; in fact, it ought not to be changed. The man who removes the leaves from his lawn each day has good pros- pects for a steady job for some time to come. The world's series of championship games are held for the purpose of giv- ing baseball fans something to talk about all winter. To get hot over reciprocity and toss the country over to the free traders is almost equal to cutting off one's nose to spite his face!l The Pennsylvania man who is dead from having drunk a quart of whis- key in five minutes is very properly regarded as a victim of speed mania. ) It is rather early for Denmark to be doubting Stefanson's discovery aft- er their experience in falling so quick- ly for Dr. Cook's discovery of the pole. Some people hate Taft so that they fly into a rage when a citizen speaks well of him. They are not actuated by principles, for intense prejudice serves their turn. It's less than four weeks to election, but no one would ever suspect it. Where are the good old days of flag ralsing, torchlight parades and cam-| paign rallies?

Leavens Home For a Year’s Study. By the preliminary list of under- graduate students issued this week by the university, the largest freshmen classes in the history of Yale are shown. The enrollment in the college class of 1916 totals 415, while in the class of 1915, Sheffield scientific school, the number is given as. 436 students. The total number of men in the two undergraduate departments is 2,414, 1,326 of them in academic and 1,088 in Sheff. By classes the enrollment is: Academic: Seniors 289; juniors 281; sophomores 341: freshmen 415; Shef- fleld: seniors 272; juniors 380; fresh- men 436. In the scientific school there are also ten special students. ‘While the lists of the graduate de- partments’ student body has not yet been completed, an estimate places the number at about a thousand, so that the total university enrollment will be approximately 3,500. Another Norwich young man enter- ing the first year class in the scientific school is Charles Wolcott Willey, and in the senior class of that department is Malcolm R, Wibberley of South Canterbury. The political campaign was resumed with all stress in college this week. Last spring, Taft, Wilson and Roose- velt clubs were formed with great displays of enthusiasm and even so- clalists were going to organize, but they never got around to it. New Ha- ven has been a storm center for poli- ticians this fall, and the infection, aid- ed by the recent visits of Governors ‘Wilson and Johnson on the stump for their respective parties, has again en- tered the university. The Wilson-Marshall club was the first to be organized this year. A big crowd of their supporters met on ‘Tuesday mnight under the sanctidn of the state central committee and took the first step in its campai; From headquarters in historic old Connec- ticut literature and buttons are from now on to be distributed without stint. Prof. Yandell Henderson, who as an exponent of progressive principles, has made more than one stir during the past few months, was the fore- | most speaker before the Roosevelt contingent Wednesday evening. The Yale Taft club is not uncover- ing its fall plans just at present. Yale 'cross-country runners will have to go to Cornell this year for the intercollegiate run. While in pre- vious years it has been the custom to holg them on the morning of the Yale- Harvard football- game, this y on November 23, in Brookline or New Haven, this time it was decided by the intercollegiate association to give the event a setting all its own. There- by m%‘:opo to attract more atten- tion. runners after the six-mile race wili be entertained with mov- ing pictures of the Olympic games, One of Yale's most promising dis- tance runners this fall is Tommy Hen- drick, '138, formerly of Norwich. In the first run of the season, Saturday afternoory which took the form of a four-mile paper chase, Hendrick led the fleld home and finished by an easy margin in first position. Closed gates and secret practice have besn '1:'.'1':' the rule with the uni- versity foot! eleven this week in spite of the earliness of the season. The dash with which the game with Syracuse opened last Saturday was the most encouraging thing of the season 8o far. In two minutes after the whis- |- tle blew, Yale had pushed the ball over the line, and in two minutes more repeated the touchdown. Lefty Flynn, a- big, six-foot Sheff t, 80 named because with his left leg he sends his 60-yard punts down the field, has been the subject of all talk since the game and he has been generally given the fullba¢k's place for the rest of the season. Remaining in obscurity until a few weeks ago, for last year the Shetfleld class of 1914, of which he is a member, were debarred from ath- letics during the whole fall following the Prospect street -bridge burning af- fair, Lynch blossomed forth in full glory Saturday with his long kicks and splendid line plunges, and since then he has been halleq as a second Ted Coy. With a little more attention from the coaches, Flynn really should be | sure of the fullback’s place. Then Captain Spalding will go in as one halfback and Philbin, Walter Camp, Jr, who ia just getting over a long illness, and severai other men, will fight it out for the other position. The quarterbacks so far have been having lots ‘of trouble and nonme of them has been able to run the ma- chine with the ability shown by Howe last year.

It was not visible to the naked eye, but appeared as a hazy star in the | finder, while in the nime-inch equa- ————— e states, and praised Bill Flinn of Penn- sylvania, a corrupt political boss, to show he stands for better principles. ‘With football in force, a black eye is evidence of a splendid affray on the | gridiron; and broken bones a dire re- sult, ‘When the Colonel sanctioned the ab- sorption of the Tennessee Coal,and Iron company by the Steel trust, it cleared $75,000,000.

The republican party became known as the grand old party not only be- cause it saved the union, but because it made by its policies the most pros- perous half-century the country had ever known. Bill Flinn says he put over $140,000 into the progressive campaign; but he doesn’t say he did it with the expecta- tion of getting nothing for his money. The financier finances for his wallet, not his health.
