Red- field, as the result the reports -of inSpectors who have been investigat- ing the steamships which are operatell in the Sound, that the vessels of the New England Navigation company are as well equipped, If not better, than the general run of vessels of their cldss, it is but what was eéxpected by these who kuow the prevailing condi- ¥ v o 2 ?tu‘ml during the testimony of Charles 8. Mellen, former president of the New Haven system before the in- terstate commerce commission that he referred to the steamboats which ply the Sound as “tinderbozes” That there was little basis for guch refers ence was generally conceded, but. for the detriment it meant to such bus- iness through its effect upon the trave eling public, the department of com- merce at once commenced a rigid in- vestigation, with the above result. Such must of necessity be accepted as an impartial and thorough probe into the condition of the boats, the precautions against fire as well as all the required provisions for the safety of the passengers and crews. It is now Mr. Mellen against the govern- ment and as such it must be realized that the government's position and opinion follow an exact knowledge of the facts. It rests with the depart. ment of commerce whether such ves- sels can be operated and where lives are Involved the investigations must be impartial. The clean bill which is given the company thus carries no small responsibility with it, and means what it says when it declares they are well equipped.’ . PEACE IN COLORADO. The country will be inclined to agree with the president when he calmly, but none the less firmly, tells those concerned in the trouble through- out the coal regions of Colorado that it is time for an adjustment of their troubles, or such a getting together at least as will make it unnecessary for the federal troops to continue police duty there. Since'it has been neces- s:? for the government to uphold law and order there,! there has been a ces- sation of the riotous conditions which prévailed previous to that time. Pol- orado has been restored to normal conditions, but it is time that it should ‘e able to look out for its own affairs, either through the assumpti of the onsibilities by the state or through settlement of the difficulties among thgse directly. involved, &on!idering the time which has been ocgupled by “the trouble, it should, be possible to make progress In some direction. Either. Colerado can or can- not relieve the federal troops, or the mihers and the company can or cannot reach an agreement, and the -proper stdp for determining it, one way or th§ other has been taken by the of- fef, of the service of the government investigators to such an end. It paves the way for disclosing just what the sitpation has developed into out there, whether the suggested three year truce is finally adopted or not. It 1s time that there should be a sensible end- ing of the disgraceful controversy. OUR EDUCATIONAL ADVANTAGES The opportunities which this coun- try has for interesting foreign stu- dents in its eddcational field have al- ways been large, but there can be no question but what they are going to be greatly increased as the result of theé war, and the conditions which must follow. Not only those students who yearly go abroad for foreign study, but those of other foreign coun- tries who have been attracted by the seats of learning in the Eurofean coun- tries, can well afford to investigate ‘what this country has to offer in that direction. = Such is the purpose of Commission- er Claxton of the United States burean of education in the preparation of spe- cial bulletins for the setting forth of the facilities for professional and col- legiate study in higher institutions of learning in this country. He well says that “we have now a supreme oppor- tunity to demonstrate our capacity for intellectual leadership. Within the last two decades the increase in oppertu- nity for graduate study and research and for professional and technical ed- tional school development tention our educational advantages. THE RED CROSS AID. As is the case calamity exists, nage; with the great number involved. theve is a service to suffering but if anything was needed to dem- onstrate the interest of this country in the cause of humanity, it is thus It is a noble response which has been made by this ecoun- try in furnishing the necessary contri- butions for such an importsnt and prompt tender of services and thor- oughly in keeping with our spirit of’ neutrality is the plan to divide the forces among the several nations, to is- being made by those who go to render aid, for while they are to be paid, inadequate must be whatever they receive as payment for their la- bors of mercy. — e CARRANZA AND REFORM. While it hs to be generally acknowl- edeed that Carranza has a stupendous task before him in the administration of the Mexican government in the po- sition which he holds at the present time, it must also be agreed that he in bringing several factions for the establishment of a constitutional gov- it ernmen The present head of the gavernment, whatever his title may be, indicates his determination to direct ‘the affairs of the nition in a manner which will meet the needs of the pation. Even though he may be there but tempo- rarily, the course which he has chosen is the one which is most likely to bring order out of chaos, and result to the benefit-osf the country in pref- erence to the accomplishment of po- litical alms of certain leaders. From all indications the breach be- tween Carranza and Villa is not so ereat but what there are gpod pros- pects that it will be permanently healed. It is for the inmterests of both as well as the country that it should be while the way ‘been opened by Carranza for the eting of other disturbing elements by the convention which has been &aled for October first for the purpose of discussing the pro- gramme of reforms which the coun- try needs. It Is through such a gath- ering that the way for ending such trouble as Zapata promises is_pro- vided. Carranza by calling such a convention has hit upon a method of determining the wants of the people which cannot fail to Impress. It is an opportunity entirely new to the republicy which has-great possibili~ ties. e is making a good start towards national betterment. EDITORIAL NOTES. ‘With Paris at bat the Germans are playing ‘in close hoping to make. a quick finish. ‘The unpopular end of the vacation season has put in its appearance with its customary regularity. ‘While the national lesislature is considering new revenue, it is well that old economy should not be given the “go by - It 18 perhaps just as well that the pointed remarks of Young America on the opering of scheol fail to get past the censdr. e e e Even the postage stamp collectors are looking forward to the time when the new fssues by the wafring nations will be forthcoming. — ATl kinds of storles ire coming from Europe about the war, its cause and effect, but no one has dared to tag it as purely psychological. [, ‘The designation of October fourth as a day of prayer for peace ought to be an excellent time for an “Hvery- body at church” Sunday also. Just' at the present time stories from abroad indicate that “safety first” has been ruth'essly abandoned when it comes to mine operations. il St iy The president is going to stay on his job because the country is bigger than party. Such of course is a fact, war or no war, but it is too often overlooked. Dolefm! 15 the calendar warning which calls for the shelving of the straw hats in less than a week, ex- cept to the fellow who wears one the year round. ‘When the weatherman reports no in- dication of a disturbance in the West Indies, he probably looks upon that trouble between: the Karlsruhe and Bristol as purely local.

The production and distribution of 0@ supplies is being based upon the theory that there is going to be an extraordinary foreign ‘demand. The same can be applied to business de- velopment with good results. The display of the products of New London county farms this week is one of the best arguments that such ex- cellent results can be accomplished by others and in increased amounts, if advantage is taken of the opportuni- ties afforded, cultural colleges, college and educa- great ald to such changes'which. comes ‘wherever such a the only mneed of Europs at this time is not men to participate in the great strusgle for supremacy.

You've been so dread- fully busy eince you got back from abroad that your friends simply have seen néthing of you! I know that was why you hadn’t been out to the house! No, indeed, you're not detaining me—I was just going up to papa’s office a minute and wasn't at all in a hurry! I all the time in the world for a Oh, now, the old business will walt, I'm sure!

Still, if one doesn't put one's self out a trifle far friends, close friends, that is, you underetand, it is hard to keep them! “T'N] wager you didn't treat every one that way! I felt really hurt over it, Mr. Wooflles! Now, did you? Oh, 'well, I never believe haif what you men say and I expect you would have to admit that you mailed heaps of letters if youw'd tell the. truth! “I even joked Estelle Lane about hearing from you-—she's always tuck- ing letters away in the book she’s read- ing and blushing in that childish way and trying to make ome think all sorts of things-—and I knew she was so pleased at being suspected. I've no doubt the létter was from her maiden aunt or some one equally harmless. Es- telle is a sweet girl, but she does like to give people the impression she's a great heart breaker. I think the girls who really are never say a word about it, don't you? I know that I— that {§—dead me, what a lot of foolish. ness I am saying! . “No, indeed. Myr. Woofles; I shan't miss father!

Of course there is one kind of labor that has already triumphed and which promises to in the future, and that is political labor. seem to swallow almost anything of a political nature nowadays as gospel truth.—Middletown Press. New Haven's grand list this year is $150,000,600. Her estimated population is 160,000. An average taxable prop- erty of $1,000 per capita is extremely creditable to this Connecticut city. Yet ew Haven's admiration of her public and private buildings, even $150,000,000 seems a low estimate of the actual wealth con- centrated in the municipality. — New London Telegraph. = ‘The economy which the New Haven road counted on from the diversion of the Waterbury expresses around by New Haven was so small that it did not justify the change when the mat- ter came to be considered. We con- gratulate the committee on making so convincing a presentation of its case and the road officials on seeing the point as soon as it was forcibly pre- sented—Waterbury American. Tt will take a very long tirhe for people to teach the price fixers the much needed lesson and once the peo- ple know how to act in such times they will be able to exercise a power than can be mede to bring about the desired result. The change has been a long time coming, but its arrival now is much better than never. Much can be saved now and a little persistence on the part of the consumer will cause the future to take care of itself.

No friends to.reward or enemies to punish for past favors or fancied injuries. To that purpose I make bold to state that Brandegee is the choice of more pecple, right now, for the U.

Designateq by nature to fill the po- sition, he has been in constant train- ing for the same ever since nature turned him over as a completed piece of work. Now as regards Bryan F. Mahan. He deserves several kinds of good luck in several different directions. But on the other hand he is about as well equipped for U, S. senator from this district as your humble servant would be for pope. J. W.
