HENDERSON PLACE FOR REAL PROGRESSIVES. Though it has been declared upon several occasions that it is principles for which the progressives are in exist- ence and fighting, there have been reasons for Dbelieving otherwise. ' Ac- tions have spoken louder than words, ‘but now comes the statement from Representative Rupley, secretary of the progressive congressional commit- tee at Washington where “He admits that the object of the committee is to prevent the republicans from elect- ing a majority in the next congress.” That they have had their ambition realized in the past is evident and with it goes the responsibility for the democratic control and results. Rec- ‘ognition of this fact by those who , have contributed to it has brought about a marked change throughout the ranks of the third party. .Candidates have refused nominations or with- drawn from tickets upon realizing the contributions whigh they were making to the democratic cause and against principles for which for the most part they are in-accord. Others are fully in sympathy with the Massachusetts progressive state committeeman, R. D. Worcester, who, in resigning, says: “I believe that it will be disastrous to the state and country to give the democratic party the opportunity to rule through the division of the voters into two parties which have nearly if not quite the same aims. T am con- vinced that the place for real pro- sressives is in the republican ranks to fight for the principles they stand for.” Such a conviction has possessed a large number of the rank and file as it has candidates and officlals and as it must the voter who gives the mat- ter a little careful thought and seeks to find what there is .in the dem- ocratic policy which deserves to e endorsed. New _London BROWN, PROTECTING THE PEOPLE. Experience has shown that too much care cannot be taken for the Rrotec- tion of the purchasing public. There are many pitfalls into which they are led which can be avoided and one of them is overcome by the insistence of the govern- ment under the Food and Drug acts that medicinal preparations must be properly labeled. That all sorts of claims could be made as to the cura- tive value of preparations for the pur- pose of inducing a eale, whether as a matter of fact there was any chance of good results is a matter of common knowledge. It became in some in- stances a rivalry as to claims and the number of troubles that could be cured by any one of several remedies, but the cure all has run its course and by the latest ordey, “A preparation can- not be properly designated as a spe- cifle, cure, remedy or recommended as infallible, sure, certain, reliable or invaluable, or bear other promises of benefit unless the product can as a matter of fact be depended upon to produce the results clalmed for it.” Taking advantage of the gullibility of a certain number of people is an old story, but it is as important that a determined effort should be made to break up swindling in this direction as well as in any other. It is only proper that misrepresentation should be re- moved as much as possible in connec- tion with the sale .of medicines. Not only is it bad enough to establish false hopes without justification when the auestion of health is concerned, but it is high time that misleading im- pressions as to thelr worth simply ta Increase personal profit was stopped. WHAT WILL TURKEY DO? Just what Turkey has been prepar- Ing for hes been & matter of uncer- lainty for some time. Reports as to readiness to enter the war have en followed by . contradictions, still ere has been an activity along cer- lain lines which made it evident that sonditions were by no means normal there. Both sides have been exerting their nfize for the good graces of that »mpire in the present struggle, either 5y particlpation or rmaining out of the conflict and thus far Turkey has naintained neutrality in so far as it :2s not entered into active participa- lion. What it has in mind for the fu- The order foreign Tep- wure can only be surmised. tecently given by resentative that all women of the em bassy should leave, but ask no ques. tions, has been followed by the declin- ation on the part of Turkey to remove the German soldlers from the two cruisers said to have been purchased from Germany by that country. At the same time millions in gold have ‘been sent to Constantinople from Ger- many and a long trainload of war mu- nitions destined for Turkey has been held up in Roumania. This with the giving of orders to the head of the Greek church to depart adds to the interest’ which surrounds the actions of that country, Upon the position which Turkey finally takes depends the course of several others in that troublesome neighborhood. It might be supposed that Turkey was destined to gain the most by remaining out of any further wars at this time, but pressure in be- hailf of trouble is likely to carry more weight there just at the present time than influences in behalf of neutrality. GETTING SOUTH TRADE. That the Investigations which have been made or are underway in behalf of a greater trade between this coun- try and South America are bound to bring forth good fruit is beyond ques- tion. That the countries in the south- ern half of this hemisphere are look- ing to other sources than they have been used to for their supplies is evi- dent, and it is equally true that they ‘are 'desirous of entering into better trade relations with this country, but it is dlso evident that before such can be carried on very extensively there must be better financial arrange- ments. As has been said, it doesn't require any great ability to go to South Amer- ica and sell goods, but it must not be expected that steamship loads of goods can be taken into.the ports of that continent and be exchanged for cash. We do not possess the advan- tages of the financial exchange which European countries had and upon which they developed their business. This is no new revelation which has been made by investigating commt- tees. It existed before the war and was one of the handicaps against which this country was trying to do busimess there. Thus it becomes quite evident that as transportation facilities are neces- sary for the development of new re- gions, so is it important that a sys- tem of financial exchange be insti- tuted with those countries if a stimu- lation of business is desired or ex- pectéd. With the reguirements dis- closed the setting into motion of the details of a plan of action ought to be .instrumental in bringing results. American enterprise should be suffi- ofent to meet the exigency. AMERICAN CAN DO NQO HARM. Though the president has permitted the impression to be gained that he is not very enthusiastic over the prop- osition of Representative Gardner for an inguiry into our military prepared- ness, it has only increased the vig- orous effort which the congressman is making in behalf of his resolution. He has indicated that there are excellent reasons for gaining such knowledge as an investigation of that kind would bring forth. ‘There is no reason for a scare be- cause we do not maintain a burden- gome standing army for we do not depend upon giving or receiving jus- tice in such a manner, but there is no harm which could come from, though there is much good which could result from, such an inquiry. It was but recently that General Leonard ‘Wood, former chief of staff, pointed out some weak spots in our military system, which needs to be remedied under the small army policy of this country., It is a time when it should be known what even our limited degree of preparedness actually is. There should be some basis for action when future demands are made for changes or additions in army and navy, for they are bound to come as the result of the revelations from across the wa- ter. It would also be well to know what efficient contributifons are being made to our preparedness and what are to be classed as the useless. It is & subject upon which there cannot be too much accurate unbiased knowl- edge, EDITORIAL NOTES. President Taft declares that he likes private life. Such cannot be sald of every ex-president. —_— Greece is paralyzed by an earth- quake, but it is really. less demoraliz- ing and costly than war. By the way while the president is commending congress what has be- come of that famous gibbet act? “Colonel to lunch with Taft today,” doesn't mean what you thought. No, no. It was Col. Watterson of Xen- tucky. Delving' into anclent humor must be as Interesting as being compelled to listen to a story which was heard the night brfore. Plentiful as apples are it is going to require an excellent system of dis- tribution to overcome such appeals as “Give me the core?” It 1s a significant fact that our ex- ports of lead should rise from almost nothing to 72,730,000 pounds in a pe- riod of five months. — . When it is declared that the British army will be at its best about a year from now it is easily understood why Germany relied upon quick and de- cisive actfon, The American Bar assoclation is In session at Washington, but there is no possibility of its remalning there long enough to interpret the Clayton anti-trust bill. The only way in which the south- ern advocates of the cotton petticoat can make a success of their effort is to devise some way to make them sound like silk. One of the results of pitiless pub- licity has been the burying of the hatchet by President Wilson and Cols. Harvey and Watterson. Now for ‘watchful cooperation. It was of course unfortunate for the democrats that just when the house passed the Philippine bill the Moros should muréer a friend and helper of thirty years’ standing. The man on the corner says: This is the season of the vear when there should be a general response to mo- bilization orders for the crushing of General Apathy’s revolt THE CUP The cup had just been placed in the center of Mr. Blake's window. Lord Morston's gift to the Club was displayed so that all who passed up and down High Street could look and long. The news spread through the little town. Augustus Pearson, -head salesman of the boot shop which supplied foot- wear for all the. villagers around Morston-on-the-Wash, was told that the cup had arrived within 10 min- utes of shutting up the shop. Ile affected a quiet disregard of the news, while, at the same time, his eagerness was throbbing through him. Augustus Pearson meant to win the cup. He was a leading member of the Rifle Club, but he was not the most popular person in. town. He thought too much of himself. When he got opposite to the bril- liantly lit window of Blake's shop he stopped and joined the loiterers in front of the plate glass window. Cer- tainly the cup was a desirable trophy for anyone. Mr. Pearson turned into the shop, and asked Miss Blake if the London evening papers had arrived or not. “Oh, Mr. Pearson,” said Miss Blake, “surely you are going to win this trophy. His lordship’s butler brought it down this afternoon, and, talking with him, he mentioned your name.” Mr, Pearson twirled his mustache and looked kindly at Miss Blake. “Well, he said, “of course, Miss Blake, sport 1s sport.” “Indeed, Mr. Pearson, it must be so. But, if I know anything of our noble ;‘l::enders, you, Mr. Pearson, will wia Rifle “If T do, Miss Blake,” replied Pear- son, “I hope’— As he was framing a pretty speech a short, thick-set man bustled into the shop, and asked roughly for a packet of notepaper and envelopes. “Hallp, Gus,” the man said to the immaculate Mr. Pearson. “What about tomorrow > “That remains to be seen,” 'kald Miss Blake. “Here's your packet of notepaper, Mr. Jarvis” “Well, T'll say good night” said Au- gustus Pearson, and left the shop, fol- lowed by the newcomer. Mr. Pearson and Mr. Jarvis imme- diately, and without a word, dived down a_side street, and into a small public house known as “The Rifle- man.” They sat down together in the little paneled place. “Now, then, Gussie,” said Mr. Jarvis, “about tomorrow. What's it worth to me ?” “It's worth a couple of quid to you.” That’s all very well,” Jarvis replied, ut I don’t see how it's to be done. ‘Waddington’s a better shot than you, and Thorne is a better shot than either. I place you third in the com- petition, and third you will be. So I don't see”— “Of course, you don’'t see, Bob,” Pearson replied. “And that'’s why I'm talking to you now. You're chosen as marker tomorrow, aren’t you?’ “Yes, I and my brother Bill marking for the competition.” “Very well, then, What T'm going to do is, to show you how The two men were sitting close to- gether. Behind them was a window hung with red curtains, which hap- pened to be ajar. Neither of the men noticed it. are Just \\'hnt I want to know,” heweiea Mo Peats s son. “You mark, you pull the cord, and the whitewash brush goes over the tar- get. You're chosen to mark down the score as the bullets hit the target. Therefore, what you put down on your sheet stands in the competition for the Cup. “Of course it does, Jarvis replied I shan’t know who's firing. T shall simply record the shots upon the sheet, and 1 shan't know whether it's vou, Waddington or Thorne.” Augustus Pearson looked keenly at bis companion. “T'm not the fool,” he said, “Well, then, get at i do you mean, Gussie?” “Just this. Yowll be watching the impact of the Dullets upon the target and, as you say, u won't know who's firing. But I've got a little plan by which you will know who's firing. You will know it's me, end no one else, for the reason that vou'll see a blue stain upon the whitewash. I bought a couple of blue pencils yester- day, end I'm going to cover the bullets with the blue before I fire them. When they get onto the target. youw'll see at once who's shooting. There will be ‘What exactly LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Majority Governs Mr, Editor:—I would like to ask you a question on parliamentary rules, viz: An informal ballot having been taken in a caucus to bring forward names of candidates for any office, after which a motion is made ta make that inform- al ballot a formal ballot, can it be done when there is objection against such a procedure? Will you please an- swer the question in the next issue of your paper and oblige A CITIZEN. Hampton, Conn., Oct. 19, 1914. (Unless there is a rule which re- quires a ballot, the expression of the majority, ascertained by aye or nay vote, and not an objection, determines the procedure.—Ed.) ATONCE! STOPS STOMACH MISERY AND INDIGESTION “PAPE’S DIAPEPSIN” MAKES SICK, SOUR, GASSY STOMACHS FEEL FINE. Do some foods you eat hit back— taste good, but work badly; ferment into stubborn lumps and cause a sick, sour, gassy stomach? Now, Mr. or Mrs. Dyspeptic, jot this down; Pape's Diapepsin digests everything, leaving nothing to sour and upset you. There never was anything so safely quick, so certainly effective. No difference how badly vour stomach is disordered you will get happy relief in five minutes, but what pleases you most is that it strengthens and regulates your stom- ach so you can eat your favorite foods without fear. Most remedies give you relief some- times—they are slow, but not sure. “Pape’s Diapepsin” is quick, positive and puts your stomach in a healthy condition so the misery won’t come back. You feel different as soon as “Pape’s Diapepsin” comes in contact with the stomach—distress just vanishes—vour stomach gets sweet, no gases, no belch- ing, no eructations of undigested food, your head clears and you feel fine. Go now, make the best investment you ever made, by getting a large fifty cent case of Pape's Diapepsin from any drug store. You realize in five min- utes how heedless it is to euffer from indigestion, dyspepsia or any stomach dizorder the blue mark upon the whitewash, and you'll book me up accordingly.” Mr. Jarvis chuckled. It was unfortunate that the little red curtain window at the back of the con- spirators had been open, because Mr. Livermore, the secretary of the club, and also the range superintendent, happened to be reading the paper in the landlord’s sanctum. The voices on the other side of the wall had dissi- pated his incipient slumbers and made him sit upright. The driil hall at 7 o'clock the mext evening was full of territorials, mem- bers of the Rifle Club and local mag- nates. During the day the cup had been shot for. Mr. Thorne and Mr. Wad- dington had struggled for the mastery. Time after time the signal had dip- ped, ducked and risen again to the con- fusion of the champions. At the end of the firing Mr. Pearson was ad- judged the winner. Now the hall was full, and Augustus Pearson, sitting moderately three or four benches away from the platform, was the recipient of the congratula- tions of his fellow members. These were hearty, indeed, and Augustus felt that, after all, life was worth living. He was indubitably the hero of the mement, and also of Morston-on-the- ‘Wash. Yet he was not entirely happy. Somehow or other his comrades, while congratulating him, seemed to be a little rough in their regard. They smacked him on the back with a some- what insincere heartiness. They con- gratulated him with voices in which the sensitive young man almost im- agined that he detécted sarcasm, it not menace. There was a sudden Mush. The bell had rung; everybody settled themselves in their seats. Mr. Dalton, the mayor; Mr. Purvis, the rector, and Lord Morston. After a fow preliminary words from the mayor his lordship took a step forward and began his speech. Always, he sald, he had been a pa- tron of and a believer in the rifle clubs of this kingdom. It was now his pleas- ant duty to present the cup which he had been privileged to provide to the winning shot of Morston-on-the-Wash. This cup has been won by Augustus Pearson, and—here there was applause in the body of the hall—and, he would add nothing to the applause which he had just heard, but simply call upon the champion shot of the Rifle Club to receive that which was his just and proper due. Urged on, not to say pushed on, by his enthusiastic companions, Augustus Pearson advanced toward the plat- form. A servant came hurriedly upon the ' platform holding a large silver tray. Upon this tray was a china mug of a deep cerulean blue_ In it was a sheaf of blue pencils, a dozen at least. Lord Morston bent over the platform and handed the trophy to Augustus. THE WHOLE BODY \ NEEDS PURE BLOOD The bones, the muecles, and all the organs of the body depend for their sncngth and ione and healthy action on pure blood, Hood’s Sarsnpanlla makes pure blood. It is positively unequaled in the treatment of serofula, catarrh, rheumatism, dyspepsia, loss of ap- petite, that tired feeling. There is no other medicine like it. Be sure to get Hood’s and get it today. It is sold by all druggists. — ey ‘When Augustus eventually reached the door of the hall, he had nothing in his hand at all. All he carried away with him was a packet of washing blue ‘which someone had pressed down be- tween his neck and his collar.—London Daily Mail. OTHER VIEW POINTS Fifteen years ago the price of New Haven railroad stock was $215 a share. Now it is $50. It costs something to change from a conservative policy to a buy-all-or-bust policy and the New Haven's stockholders are paying the price now.—Waterbury Republican, Tt is a good report that comes from the state hospital for the insane on the east bank of the Thames. The weekly cost is $3.63 each, which is lower -than in neighboring _states. Nothing essential omitted. An evi- dence of good management, apparently. —New London Globe.

Big business seems to be getting bigger and little politictans smaller as time wears on.—Middletown Press. Dr. Frank W. Wright, health officer of the city of New Haven, in the Octo- ber bulletin of the city board of health, makes a strong plea for more healthful school customs. He registers a protest against competitive athletics and over- indulgenco in social activities on the part of the pupils in public schools. The state spends a vast sum of mon- ey in public education and anything which interferes with the proper per- forrnance of the functions of the pub- lic schools should either be restricted, or eliminated if restriction will not accomplish the desired end. Dr. Wright deserves the commendation of all who are anxious to see the public schools subserve their proper function, and the time is not far distant when the abuses against which he protests will be prohibited as a matter of course.— Torrington Register. lFTlll]AY IS FREE STAMP I]A‘!l=ll irst Reductions SUITS $15.95 Values to $20 O % (] fl I fl (] navy and black. the season. do this early in o values, $10.00 to $25.00 Today at The Manhattan Three Important Offerings || suITS $19.50 Values to $25 Assortment embraces practically every popular style of @ season—in every wanted material and color New Short Coat Suits Smart Long Coat Suits Fur and Pomeroy Trimmed Suits Gabardines’ Serges, - Broadcloths, Ripple Chev:ob and Poplins.
