Mellen to resign from the head of the Boston & Maine and the Maine Central railroads. it was an action which displayed good judg- ment and a determination to give to the New Haven road the benefit of the concentration of his services, which the change will permit. The ex- pansion of the New Haven system of control has required his attention most of the time and taken it from the lines where it was originally applied, for the bullding up of other roads. When he therefore reduces his activities in this regard in New England it means an increage in the service rendered to the actual New Haven lines and the lift- ing of the multitudinous responsibili- ties from the shoulders of one and placing them on several. That it has been the result of the contimued opposition since the merger of the two systems is plainly indieated and 1t serves in a measure to offset the effect of the interstate commerce commission’s report by making a move in advance which might naturally' be expected to follow the findings which have subsequently been made pubfe. While the commission criticised the policy of the road in gathering unto itself the extensive holdings in trol- ley lines and devoting its efforts to their development instead of applying itself solely to raiiroading, it had a good word for the passenger train ser- vice, barring the lack of steel care, and for the reliability of its freight service. The commission makes rec- ommendation for extensive changes of policy and control of lines but full rec- ognition is given to the value of the varfous propositions by themselves without the financing which places the burden on the railroad. Whether con- ditions throughout New England will improve remains to be seen, but there is reason to expect the New Haven to show good result ENCOURAGE ARBITRATION. | Just what will be the outcome of the demand of the conductors and train- men of the eastern railroads for an increase in their wages is uncertain at the present time. \They are of course inspired by the result of the efforts of other classes of railroad employes who have sought angq obtained some in- creases in the past two yvears and their determination is indicated by the vote which has been taken in behalf of a strike. -Opposition from the railroads comes on the ground that the demands cannot be afforded, that such conces- siomns could not be granted because of the impossible obligations under which it would place the roads, and figures are shown which indicate that the con- ductors ang- trainmen are already re- ceiving good wages. Regardless of the almost unanimous vote of the employes to strike, the proper course for the dispute to take is to submit it to arbitration under the fairest terms possible. This can un- questionably be arranged but the method of arbitration is bound to be a bone of contention just so long as the present provisions in the Erdman act remain as they are. The efficacy of arbitration is being hampered by the delay of congress in amending this important plece of legisiation, the need of changing which is fully recognized. Why there should continue to be a postponement of action thereon is diffi- cult to upnderstand inasmuch as reli- ance is placeq upon a government measure and the existing one has been shown by experience to be weak. The very basis of arbitration is fairness and it deserves encouragement in every way. . Capt. Potts might have made his protest over retirement whether he had been given the opportunity to show his mettle, but his handling of the accident of the ILouisiana places him and his protest in a most favor- able light. Anything like “gross misrepresenta- tion” ought not to bother Boss Mur- phy of Tammany. Little things should not worry him unless they are true. What is going to happen to the health of Massachusetts is not neces- sarily indicated by the record break- ing mumber of-weuld-be doctors, ' i —_— Norwich, Thursday, July 10, 1913. ATTRACTIVE NEW ENGLAND. This is the season of the year when New England is attracting visitors from other sections of the country by | the thousands and there is a generai visiting about of its own people, so that for the obtaining of the full ben- efit, this section of the country should be at its best, 'not only in the way of attractions, but in the way of its ap- pearance. There ig a yearly increase in the interest in and response to the charms of New England. No section of the country holds a greater variety of attractions with its seashore re- sorts, mountains, lakes, rolling coun- try and historic places. It abeunds in natural beauty and a climate which iy conducive to the enjoyment of all its pleasures even during the hottest period. New England has been undergoing .development for many years in this respect and it is still progressing with the increased advantages which are offered through the automobiles and the good road movement. The many thousands of summer guests are cf much advantage to every state in New England. Fach one means more bus- iness in all lines of trade and the stranger must be given the welcome and the entertainment which will mean his return season after season. Tourist travel is not a passing fad any more than is the summer hotel guest. It continues as long as there is the attraction gnd whatever is contributed in the way of increased advantages cities beautiful or civie improvements is a valuable aid for such summer bus- iness. DISCOURAGE FUTURE LAMARS. Whatever is the outcome of the Ta- mar affair, whether there is a law found under which he can be punished for his impersonation of congressmen it is evident that a stop should be put to any further possibilities of a prac- tice of that kind being pursued with- out a means of prosecution. The need of the influence of such a law which would make the offense punishable by a fine or imprisonment, for the pur- pose of preventing the repetition of any such inclination, is imperative. Lamar seemed to have been actuated by a scheme all his own, but he has given a suggestion to those who are open to ideas te cause more trouble than he has created, and to place a stumbling block in the way of national legislation of a most .insidious char- acter. It is easily understood, therefore, that Senator Cummins’ should expect much support for his bill which would make such an act a felony punishahle by imprisonment of not over five years or a fine of $5,000. It is a preventive measure and would be in existence if needed in the future, though the great- est effect it could have would be the restraining of any others who might be inclined to outstrip Lamar’s rec- ord. The existence of such a Ilaw would do no harm, but whatever salu- tary effect 1t will give should be taken advantage of. DANGEROUS LEADERS. There has been an important warn- ing for the followers of the I W. W. in the manner in which the strike which they instituted at Hopedale has progressed and ended. There has been a wave of such trouble which has spread over New England to the great detriment of the workers who have been incited to attempt things regard- ing which they knew little or nothing, but placed their confidence in outside influences. Hopedale has taught them a costly but valuable lesson. In the belief. that other communi- tles should meet the outbreaks in the same manner the Boston Advertiser says: “The threats of anarchy and mob rule, which the Industrial Workers of the World carry with them, must be faced in New England, in every com- munity where this threat looms up. Tt is a serious expense to each town, un- doubtedly, to meet this menace effect- uailly, but it must be done, if the laws are to be respected hereafter, in New England. Every proper and legal means which can be used to reach the mob leaders should be used; and they should be taught, as they have been taught at Ipswich, at Milford, and elsewhere in New England. just now, that the law will protect the right cf the individual to do honest work, in the face of any threats or terrorism, which the I. W. W. may attempt to exert.” The harm in following the dangerous leaders which the I. W. W. have proved to be has been apparent in every strike which they have instituted. EDITORIAL NOTES. Nothing is hurrying the green corn to the table like the spell of hot weather. President Mellen Is using good judg- ment in reducing the number of irons in the fire. Happy thought for today: The long- er the cool spell lasts the less hct weather there'll be. The Balkan states don’t consider ex- pense. They go to war whether they can afford it or not. Even President Wilson knows how undesirable it is to give up a vaca- tion which is being enjoyed. ‘While the Balkans butcher each other, Austria, Roumania and Turkey are all itching to get in on the grab at the finish. If the terrific battles in Macedonia continue it will not only be a ques- tion of borrowing money, but one of borrowing soldiers. The city beautiful movement is hav- ing its good effect in Providence when aviators are forbidden to scatter hand- bills over the city. There is no question about how the California grand jury feels about the MeNab affair whether the judge ac- cepted their report or not. The democrats may be satisfied with their one majority for the tariff bill, but it is like claiming the country for | tariff for revenue only on a minority vote. The confusion of names of state in- stitutions here seems to demand that one shall be the Norwich state hos- pital and the other the Norwich stute sanatorium. When the Erie railroad declares th: it cannot afford to increase the pay of its trainmen all it has to do is to demonstrate it and it has the best ar- gument in the world. ‘With the huckleberry bushes burden- ed with fruit and prices good there is no exouse for idle hands and crowded street corners for those who are will- ing to earn a living. A test of the constitutionality of the woman's suffrage legislation in Ti- linois is promised. As-long as it is being considered it is a good thine ¢n get it off their minds. “I hate pineapples,” said the bache- lor girl. “I acknowledge my bad taste, I know I should rave over them as does ihe rest of humanity, but they never appealed to me, somehow. “I_think my dislike dates back to childhood days when my mother told me to prepare a pineapple for the ta- ble. It seems to me that I labored from early dawn till - midnight, or later, over that so called fruit. To me it was the incarnation of all the tor- menting things in existence. Ta[k about chasing a golf ball! Why, it's nothing compared to seeking the eve of an agile pinapple! Pineapples wink, I suppose, when they see you coming. Anyhow, when I completed.tke toilet of that pineapple of childhood days I crawled off to bed embittered for life. “It has always been a great trial to me that Kitty Davis, my best friend, is crazy about pineapples. s would go a mile just to look at a pine- apple. When she is in the act of eating one she actually purrs. She says it is such a refined and ladylike fruit. I love Kitty, but she has been a source of much grief to me in this respect. When we are eating lunch- eon together she always orders, pine- apple and then comes to with a start after the waitress has disappeared and apologizes for making me face the unpleasant fruit. “Last week Kitty came to pass a few days with me, and, as she was not feeling well, I had a time finding things for her to eat. At market one morning, as I looked around, the gro- cer said that he had an extra fine case of pineapples. I turned pale, but as 1 regarded the pineapples I began to wonder why I shouldn’t order some. I was trying to find something to please Kitty and what kind of a friend was I if I considered my own wishes? “So I bought two pineapples. I had- n’t the ghost of an idea how much one pineapple made when it was cut up and since I was in for it one pineapple more or less didn’'t matter. I carted the things home and laid them on ice If it hadn’t been for Kitty I should have hoped that they would freeze to death. Just as I tucked them in along came Kitty, who had been out buying things on her own account. She look- ed guilty and had a bundle and said she was horribly sorry, but she just couldn’t help it and they did look so good, and, anyhow, she'd fix it her- self. “I just couldn't say a word, so I opened the icebox door and showed Kitty the companions of her purchase | OTHER VIEW POINTSI o e If the corporations will tell how they have been held up and bled in New England and who the “Rough Rider of legislative fame actually are they can add some interesting and very in- structive matter to the inside history of New England politics and individual cussedness.—New Haven Times-Lea- der.

Pim- les Full of Matter, ltching and urning Intense. Cuticura Soap and Ointment Cured. P. O. Box 25, Alburg, Vt. — “My hands were so affected with eczema that I could hardly do my house work for all summer. &= ‘The eczema broke out as pimples full of matter and the itching and burning were so intense that I scratched and made it spread all over my hands. They itched and burned so I could not sleep. I tried different kinds of salves, pills and liquids but to no success. Then I used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I washed the sores with Cuticura Soap thea let them dry and then I used the Cuticura Ointment. In a few nights I could sleep well and in two ‘weeks my hands were completely cured.” (signed) Mrs. George Pelkey, Oct. 14, 1012, A generation of mothers has found no soap s0 well suited for cleansing and purifying the skin and hair of infants and children as Cuticura Soap. Its absolute purity and re- freshing fragrandg alone are enough to recommend it above ordinary skin soaps, but theréare added to these qualities delicate yet effective emolliagt properties, derived from Cuticura Ointment, which render it most valuable in overcoming a tendency to distressing eruptions and prorioting a nor- mal conditign of skin and hair health.

She threw her arms around me and said she knew what it had cost me in self- sacrifice and, anyhow, we Wwouldn't have any for lunch. “We went out to dinner that night and were so late getting home that we couldn’t fix any pineapples 1or breakfast. Then in the night I heard the cats in the alley. I've always yearned for something that was just rigat to throw at those cats and on this occasion I thought of the pine- apples. I really can’t imagine any- thing better to convey your disappro- bation to a cat than a pineapple with its weight and its pickly frills. Steal- thily, so as not to waken Kitty, I slid out of bed, and headed for the pantry. 1 knew Kitty would be terribly mad at me, but I thought I could explain to her that it really was-a case of life or death—life to the cats if 1 missed 'em and death to me if I had to stay | awake listening to them. | With my' arm full of pineapples I approached the window, took aim and fired. There was an awful squawk and | something fell overboard. I think it |'was the tenor that I disabled.

Anyhow, the cats left. “I slept peacefully till Kitty woke me in tears to say that a burglar had broken in and stolen our pineapples. She asked me why he hadn't taken our jewelry. Just then she saw the pineapples smashed against the fence outside, Altogether she was so.excited that T had to tell her what I had done. Since then she has seemed a little cool in_her demeanor. 1 fear that Kitty's mind_is unable to recognize how im- possible it is not to grasp a golden opportunity when, it presents itself. “Just as we were getting friendly again over the episode the Bingham boys called and recited in chorus that they remembered I had an ice cream freezer, so they had brought up some pineapples and stuff, and wouldn’t it be jolly to make something cool like pinéapple i Kitty clapped her hands with joy—girls who have pretty hands are addicted to doing that. I've noticed—and said maliciously that she knew that I was just as pleased as she was at their thoughtfulness “So we spent all that blessed even- ing backing and sawing at the pine- apple and grating it and being per- meated by it—and I wicked enough to be glad when we suddenly discov- ered that the ice had all melted and we couldn’t make pineapple ice after all. That is, I was glad, until Kitty said it would be a pity to waste the | pineapple and she'd show me how to ke pineapple jam the next morning. 'And she did. Since she became engaged to the oldest Bingham boy Kitty doesn’t care what she does to her friends.
