In making an early selection of the members of the workmen's compensa- tion commission Governor Baldwin has avolded a campaign of solicitation and political influence, and has named a board of five men who are capable of upholding the provisions of that act as it goes on trial in the state of Con- necticut. Careful thought and consid- eration have been given to the require- ments of the board as the appoint- ments indicate. The selection of three lawyers, a physician and a layman to constitute the board reflects his con- sideration for the duties which will come before this quasi ‘judicial com- mission. They are therefore men who are equipped by their professions and experiences to give the careful atten- tion which is required by the office with the legal, medical and surgical and industrial ends well supported. Governor Baldwin has not made it a point to overlook politicians but the appointment carries with it the self- apparent call for retirement from ac- tive politics, and the elimination of politics from all of the business of the commission. The appointments rank next to the judges of the state and call for a like administration and service. Norwich is henored by fur- nishing the medical and surgical ex- pert thereon, the first recent import- ant appointment which has come to this part of the state, while those who criticised President Taft in his choice of an industrial commission have rea- son to notice what even Connecticut’s democratic governor thinks of Mr. Chandler's ability. Governor Baldwin has chosen the commissioners as he would judges, upon their qualifications. It is their impartial service on the commission which will test his judg- ment. MORE WORK AT CAMP. Each year more efforts are made to get - better results from the annual camp, or the tour of duty of the Coast Artillery reserves, until there is little resemblance between the experience at the forts and the old time frolics at Niantic. Even the plan of sending ell the companies to Fort Wright has been abandoned this year for the pur- pose of putting more emphasis upon he work than upon the social side of he camp. This is a proper view of the matter if the government and the state are to get, through the exper- jence gained by the men, the benefit for which the encampment is intended. Actual training outside of a drill shed is the purpose of the annual ten days’ visitation io the forts or the camp grounds where manoeuvres can be gone through the same as would be re- quired if a call to defend their coun- try should ever be issued. This givag | an actual insight into the service as well as a theoretical one which the remainder of the year is supposed to develop. The social features are by no means eliminated and aside from the profit through increased knowledge of coast artillery practice every encampment has its value as an outing for the company members. It is the big fea- ture of every year in military circles but the importance of getting a proper return in knowledge as well as socia- bility for the expenditure has actuated the officials to strive for better results and it has the effect of instilling more Interest and thought and less play, all of which has its value in bettering the service. BExports of machinery to South America have increased 440 per cent. In the past decade, a record which, by the rapid development there should be put-distanced .in the next decade. President Wilson evidently realizes that the curréncy -bill has: less unity among the. democrats than. the, tariff, but there is-a demand for reform even greater than there was for free trade. Harry Lauder. has proved himself a comedian, &_singer and A preacher of international fame, but it is a strange turn which _his ambition. takes by wanting to go.to parliament. There's too much comedy if politics already. the farmers meet them at the station with autemobiles. MoNab and the situation re- . Justice. He saw the value to the administration inte the ‘breach at once, |small of stepping but his position of exonerating Sec- retary MacReynelds of the department of justice and then erder- ing him to proceed with tion of the cases, a course Nab had been endea: indicates that it was the commendation should ,xlvqn and whatever censure was need- ‘ed should have been applied where it belonged. It was a situation which was bound to cause annoyance to any adminis- tration and. it possibly came early enough to give the proper warning for futurs. guidance, but the president’s course in directing the presecution of the cases at once stands out in bold contrast to his words. It of course was an emergency with that particu- lar department attacked in such & manner to need emergency treatment, but the treatment proves to be full of contradictions. McNab, who was criticised and his resignation accepted, is upheld by the executive order to hastepn the trials, while Secretary Mac- Reynolds, who was supported in his order ‘for continuance is overruled by the same order to hurry. Though he has sacrificed his job, MeNab is the one to come out of the affair with colors flying. HELPING THE BOYS. No more commendable effort can be undertaken than that which endeavors to give the homeless and parentless boy an opportunity to take a hopeful look at life and arouse in him an am- bition 'to overcome his handicap and strive for the benefits which the world has in store for him. It is such an effort which the Linceln Agricultural school of New York is making, where boys from twelve to sixteen, waifs of the metropolis, are taken and trained in practical agricultur, taught proper living conditions and found places among the families of farmers. Through the realization of the need of providing real home environment, the school overcomes the unattractive fea- ture of the traditional institution through a system of grouping. Not only are they trained to become good farmers, but they are fitted to be- come members of the household in the better class of rural homes. It is a service of reclamation which betters the citizenship and gives the state more and better farmers. It is an outlet for a large number of boys who through the city environment would have a tendency for evil rather tha better ways, and peints out the way for not only getting his livelihood, but for getting on in the world with as good chances as other boys who have homes and better opportunities. It is one of those efforts where not only the boy profits, but the city, the state and society are benefited, for the boy of today is the citizen of tomorrow. LUXURIES AND NECESSITIES. Not a little surprise was occasioned by the strike of the crew of the Im- perator which recently reached these shores, since the cause was so much in contrast with what has been said of the luxury and eomfort of the Ves- sel, 5 As the Boston Post aptly says: “If the assertions of more than. 1000 of the crew of the glnnt steamship Im= perator to the, eflect that their sanitary arrangements are. poor; their food bad and' their conditions of work stch as ‘no human: being should be called. upon to endure,” are true, the heads of the company should at once see to it that reforms are made, and we have no doubt that they will “Magnificence, luxury, the refinement of every possible comfort for the pas- sengers of this mighty craft could not be enjoved by the humane if they knew that down below those whose toil makes possible the voyages of the steamship were not adequs.tely pro- vided' for.” The .complaint is one which-. is us- ually associated with -old' and dilapi- dated boats, but for the lafest queen of the Atlantic to neglect the reqlisites for the crew while catering to every luxury and comfort for the passen- gers only makes the demand more urgent for a better adjustment and proper relief for the crew. Because they are the workers is no reason'for improper treatment or unsanitary con- ditions. EDITORIAL NOTES. Prisoners have more excuses than ever now for trving to escape from Sing Sing. Even a prisoner needs san- itation. Two additionsg to the aviation death list have heen made this week. The more participants there are in fiying the greater the mortality. The way that appointments byhthe president are being declined may only indicate that he ig coming to ‘the real slate no faster than he has to. From a distance it is Attormey Mec- Nab who has gained the most credit out of the conditions he disclesed over federal justice on the Pacific coast: Attorney McNab has performed a service for the administration for which the president should be thank- ful, though he probably regrets it. President Wilson failed to do his duty by the sundry ecivil dppropria- tion bill, but he holds up duty before congress in behalf of the currency bill. It sometimes makes the umpire hes- itate in the calling of balls and strikes, but there is always a well rehearsed vocabulary as to what to call the um- pire. & Even though Meredith Nicholson has declined the post of minister to Portugal he has reteived a little extra advertising which will help in his bus- iness. % Despite the president’s criticism of McNab he has the grand jury of Cal- ifornia back of him and a widespread sentiment in the state, for the courage to stand by his convictions. According to reports the insurgents are having practically their own way in Mexico, and when they do meet the federals, it is to the advantage of the rebels, California is giving President Wil- son considerable, worry at the outset of hig administration but it must be remembered that they were heavy con- tributors to his election also.

"“And that's the gort of a place you—you—" “The sort of a place I dared to ask ou to come to live in!” he finished 'or _her. His thin bronzed face and dark eyes were bent toward her a bit doggedly. ‘You'd like it after a while, Eleanor! You're not the sort of a’ woman to smother in city streets and waste life in going to teas.” She struck her broncho petulanmtly with the reins and then stopped as abruptly. “It's what I've been brought up to!” she declared insistently. *T'd be miserable away from New York! ‘Why, when we were children together, Bert, and said we'd marry when we grew up, you were a New Yorker, too. You - might have stayed there, an dthen, maybe—but you've never been the same since you came West after college and t the mania and settled here. You've never been the e! Why didn't you stay—" Bert Norwood swung around in his §addle as their horses plodded slowly on and waved his hand at Rattlesnake Gulch. ‘“There’s a story about that. very place,” he said. “Seeing it brought it to my mind, and then I knew the fellow. When he first came cut here from the East he wasn’t very and he wasn’t very good. He h t run up against any of the hard things of life and he was selfish because he was ignorant and raw. He had never had to think of anybody but himself and his, own pleasure. He really didn't amount to very much. “At that time Rattlesnake Guich had a thriving and lively population and this trail was given a wide berth. You see, if by any chance one went over the edge ,the only way to get out was to cross the guich and the stream and get up to the other side, where it isn’t very steep, and natu ally nobody wanted to make the trip, | because there wasn't one chance in a hundred he'd get through unharmed. | “Well, one day Smith—this chap I'm telling you about—was on the upper Mrs. Byrne Not 11l Mr. Editor: In yesterday's Bulletin received by me this morning, I read in an article concerning my brother in- law, Rev.

I gave no one the right to use my name in connection with the affair and a liberty was taken in doing so. I am perfectly well and I would not like my many friends in Norwich to think otherwise. As the article was a prominent one I would like this to be ‘seen as much as possible in both the Bulletin and the Courier. Thank- ing you, 1 remain, MRS. JOHN F. BYRNE, 6th Street, Brookiyn, N.

President Wilson’s daughters are said to have declined to pay a Wash- ington department store $2 for alter- ing gowns on the ground that they knew how to sew and could make the alterations themselves. The = whole- some simplieity 6f the Wilson family is likely to make for great popularity. And it is relieved from any suspicion of crudity by the high scholarship and good breeding with whieh it goes hand in hand.—Hartford Times. The elimination of unfair competi- tion and the obtaining and giving of just weights and accurate measures are some of the objects for which the Master Butchers’ and Grocers’ associa- tion 'of the state is working, according to principles expounded at the rmntt T The most of these principles are usual- 1y advanced by consumers rather than dealers, but in either case they proper- ly come under the head of an awaken- ed business conscience—Angonia Sen- tinel.
