Governor Baldwin is baving a hard time finding a man who can surpass the qualifications of Highway Commis- sioner James H. MacDonald, as a road builder. In his scouring of the state he has put his mind upon several, but three have impressed him sufficiently to receive his offer of appointment. For several yvears he has been partial to Mr. Cadwell of New Britain, even to the point of insisting upon his con- firmation, but the senate turned him down upon the grounds of incompe- teney. His second choice, Engineer Cairns of Waterbury, who he must have looked upon as the next best, refused the use of his name for the office, preférring his berth in Water- bury as a job of less responsibility and friction. There is now before the senate his third selection for the highway com- missionership, Engineer Bennett of Hartford. He is a young man, a civil engineer, and in his line of work has unquestionably received deserved rec- ognition, but as a road builder his work and experience covers a small space of time. He is being touted as a republican, evidently for political reasons, but his politics by the word of the governor are in the support of the democratfé administration. The position demands a man who is thor- oughly acquainted with the problems of the office and ‘the conditions under which they must be met. When Mr. MacDonald fs being sacrificed for a new man, experience seems to be giv- ing way to politics. MEXICO’S FUGITIVE LAW. Mexico's fugitive law is one which is hard to understand In this country. Its interpretation is easy enough but fhat such should be allowed to exist in a civilized republic is what seems like the retention of laws of its early days. Such is, undoubtedly one of the reasons for the inability of Mexico to keep its citizens in a peaceful mood. The murder of Madero's brother was committed within the rights of the law of the country which is that all persons seeking to escape may be summarily shot. It permits of bréad interpretation and provides the loop- hole for the removal of those, by death, whom it is desired to get out of the way. Gustavo Madero had undoubted- 1y had much influence upon his broth- er in his conduct of the government but his actions were not such as to call for his cold blooded murder, except from the Mexican standpoint. Mexico has the right to maintain such a law, and it is probably under- stood in all its applications by the people, but such government approval only promrises that just such strife as has characterized the past will con tinue in the future. The act causes resentment, and as Diaz has for long been seeking to avenge his uncle, so will others seek to avenge Madero's brother. It was a shot against peace and should be made plain tothose in eontrol of the government that it was an 11l advised disposition of trouble disposed of which couid be easily otherwise. ~ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION. ‘When the senate commiittes dedided to report favorably upon the incor- poration of the Rockefeller Founda- tion it took action which-made prac- tically positive the passage of that measure which has been before con- gress for some time.

Not only the pres- ent, but the future of the state and nation demands it. CURBING EXTRAVAGANCE. The need of preventing extravagance in congress is brought to attention by the action which provides for the un- necessary appropriations but disre- gards and overlooks the necessary. The present session is giving careful at- tention to the “pork barrel” being con- cerned In seeing that it is well distrib- uted, while some of the big and im- portant bills for the best Interests of the government are apparently being pushed aside. A budget system prom- ises to give much aid to the situation ana- should be adopted, setting forth the needs and the probable income whereby the disbursement of the na- tion'’s money can be done on a bu iness basis. Believing that the budget would help though possibly not entirely solve the question,- the New York Post points out the method adopted in Great Bri- tain and eays: “We know how the diculty has been met in British finance. All money bills are reserved for the gevernment. A private member cannot even introduce 2 bill to spend public funds. Thus a rigid control is kept in the hands of: a responsible ministry. The chancellor of the exchequer can make his esti- mates without fear of having them knocked sky. high by a log rolling com- bination in the house of commons. In addition to a national budget, we must acquire somehow the authority to compel living up to the budget, if we are effectively to make headway agalnst extravagance at Washington. "At preseht,-as we can all see, there is only the feeblest control. Control would involve, of course, sound judg- ment. * * Till we get something of that sort, or until the president be empowered, as the governor of New York is, to veto separate items in an appropriation bill, we need not expect to free ourselves successfully from the coils of extravagance, which are now crushing congress as the serpents did Laocoon and his sons.” EDITORIAL NOTES. It is quite apparent that even our troubles have not ceased in Mexico. Madero was the candidate of the progressive party in Mexico. All which deserves proper consideration. of Happy thought for today: Judge Hollister seems to have rung up the change sign on the cash register offi- cials. Mylius is now given the freedom of the country. He ang Castro may vet present a bill against Uncle Sam for detention. The Buffalo nickel is to be coined as planned. There'll be enough of the old ones to keep the slot machines going for some time. The blind in New York will not have to see to appreciate their $150,- 000 home. There .is a belief which comes without seeing. Prof. Sykes is setting some inter- esting stunts for himself when he as- sumes the presidency of the Connect- icut college for women. The modern auto fire apparatus solves an important problem of get- ting help, to neighboring cities when- ever there is a call for it. After having gone through eighteen months of Mexican treatment Madero ought to make a good umpire for the renamed Connecticut league. Possession is min law ang therein Provisionai Governor points of the General Huerta has a commanding lead over self constituted President Gomez. Congress seems to be out for a spending record instead of economical appropriations. What it needs is a regulator in the shape of a national budget. The state senate has had to back down on its reference of the New London harbor bill repeal to Senator McNefl's committee. It is now In or- der to withdraw the whole bill.

The real cause of the incident was an attack of epilepsy on the first senior who first emitted a ghastly groan during the quiet of the prayer after the sermon, and was a few moments later carried down the aisle by a cortege of classmates.

The Knights of Columbus have gone on record as being anxious to investi- gate the question of socialism and have had Mr. Goldstein, the anti-socialist, here to expose the fallacy of sociai- ism. Nows if they are fair minded men and broad and tolerant and have the material and moral welfare of the members of their church at heart then they will at least have some man here who will speak in favor of socialism. That a mere handful of working- men who compose the socialist party of Norwich should have succeeded in rousing the powerful Catholic church of Norwich ang vicinity to the fact that we are on the brink of a vast social change and that human beings have bodies to save as well as souls is a sign of progress even in this con- servative religious organization. We would rather have people op- posed to us than have them indiffer- person read them and decide for him- self and they can only arrive at ome conclusion, that they are scientific, historical works on two phases of hu- man life designed for students chiefly and are thne personal opinion of these two men. Why didn’t Goldstein tell the au- dience that two-thirds of the data used in compiling these books were obtained from Catholic authors and writers as the church held uninter- rupted sway over all branches of learning up to the 16th century” We advocate the reading of these books in order to broaden the people’s mind and no socialist is compelled to either read them or accept whaf these books say. Goldstein resorted to the meanest tactics of all when he selected some certain paragraph out of these books and yelled. “This is what socialists teach.” You can only understand any bogk by reading it from beginning to end. He charged the socialists _with teaching the private opinion of Bebel. How ridiculous this charge. Did any ent for then you know which side of the fence they are on and in order to be informed of the activities, of the party they are compelled to investigate the principles and platform of the party. Some of the most active so- cialists in the party today started out by being bitterly hostile to the party, but graduaily became converted by the simple justice of its principles. Now Mr. Goldstein's lecture from beginning to end was a dirty, low, malicious attack upon the ihtegrity, the honesty ang the morality of every person who has ever advocated the principles of soclalism. It was designed especially with a view to please the ignorant and the uninformed on this most important question. It was disgusting to hear him insin- uate that socialists were nothing only thieves, home destroyers and that they all had a desire to conduct a Turkish harem. 1 have been associated with and know intimately a good many soclallsts in various parts of this coun- try and for people of high ideals, clean thinking ang perfect home lifé they could not be surpassed. They were always ready to sacrifice their (ime and money to help the downirodden and oppressed and they never even esked whether the peeple they were helping belleVed in God or pot. These socialiets will stand comparisen with Goldsteln or any of his friends any day in the week or any week In the jear, even I some of them ure athe- Sts.

What would you think if I took a Catholic Bible and went on the lec- ture platform, selecting some immoral passages from the same Bible, and | raved and yelled: “This .1s what the | Catholics teach! They are trying to break up the home!” Now wouldn't I get a nice reception? Yet this is ex- actly what Goldstein is doing, and I am informed that he gets $100 per lec- ture for doing it. It was a most pitiful and amusing spectacle when he at- tempted to deny that the human race had lived In a state of savagery.and { barbarism in prehistoric times. There are proofs innumerable to prove this, and no educated person, either soefalist or non-socialist, can or | will deny it. Mr. Goldsteln sald that the human race and the family originated with Adam and kve. According to Mr. Goldstein the white race, the negroes, the Hindoo, the Chi- nese, the American indian, the Ksqui- meau and the aborigines of Australia all came from one father and mother. ‘This 1s the loglc handed out by Mr. Goldstein in the year 1918.
