Many situa- ions which are likely to arise from leclaring an impartial attitude have ieen provided for in international law i et | i | | | sules. which have been agreed n to govern in such contingencies %5 it must be the aim of every neu- Apel government to see that they are mnforced and not winked at. In the matter of pew circumstances the best judgment is called for with a clear @&monstration of ihe fact that favor- "‘l’fl’n 1s intended for neither side. +'2In calling attention to alleged eva- =ions of neutrality in Ecuador and Co- Jombia, Great Britain and France ap- ‘yatently have some ground upon whicl’ 46" base their communications to the #ect that German veesels have been both as to wireless and coaling fagilities. In common with the prac- #ge where countries In North and Pouth America are concerned this country has been informed and denials e been made by the representatives of those governments that such accu- sationsg are true. Tn both of these matters this coun- try has had recent experience. It is possible that there is as persistent ort on the part of certaln ones to ald belligerents from points in those cduntries ag 2ppeared to be the case af different points in this country un- ti] stopped by & firm hand. The pro- ispts which have been made to Ecua- dor and Colombia are likely to bring tmm to a greater realization of the responsibility which neutrality carries 'fih it, even though the governments y.not have been wilfully negli- zdnt. ] , BLOWING UP THE NIGER. [The destruction of’the British war- sHip Niger by a German submarine, adds to the important exploits which that branch of the German navy has accomplishing. The picking off of this vessel, not only in its own terri- fory, but almost at an English whart lays the accuracy and daring with which the enemy is operating. Accompanying the report of the blowing up of the vessel is the ex- glenation that it was little used and of an obsolete type, but such does not lessen the accomplishment of the in- vaders in making a raid upon the Bnglish coast. Fortunate indeed as thege conditions may be, and even of ggeater importance is the fact that ifigarried only 2 small crew and there was no loss of life, yet it demonstrates 84t by the submarine the German navy is getting past the British pa- } at various points. They are oper- 2 either at long distances or have :stablifhed -a base upon the Belgium soast from which the English coast ind navy are open to attack. As far as the accomplishment of :he submarine is concerned, it is none %8 less important because the victim ~as only the Niger. It is the good laPfune of Creat Eritain thet it was agt a larger or 2 more modern ship, :féf ome of its latest dreadmoughts, lor the officers of that underwater ter- ror were bent upen the destruction of whatever was found. It makes it quite syident that the British admiraity still 138 something with which to keep-its mind occupled in dealing with the ferman submarines.

Numerous instances of large potato crops are being reported about ‘the state, the past’season having been a good one for potatoes or else more than the usual amount of interest and Increased acreage were devoted to the cultivation of the spuds, and it would production in Connecticut reaches the estimated total of 3,360,000 bushels in comparison with 2,208,000 bushels last year there is a reason. 7 3 This year's crop by no means es- tablishes a record for it is in fact considerably below what Connecticut. has done in recent years for the crop in 1200 amounted to 3,493,000 bushels so that encouraging as the production is this year it has been beaten. ‘What should be a stimulation to increased production of potatoes s furnished Dy two large raisers, one in and the other in Middlesex county who in the past year averageéd respectively 166 and 168 bushels to the acre, with a total yield of over 4,000 bushels. There is no doubt but what there are others who have done cor- respondingly as well and have dem- onstrated that Connecticut sofl s capable of handsome returns if prop- erly treated. There is no reason why Connecticut should not continue to improve the opportunities in agriculture. There are plenty of instances of the productivity of the soil, and what has been done can be repeated. Connecticut is far from worn out agriculturally. NEW YORK'S PROBLEM. New York has been given further evidence of the existence and activity of the bomb throwers. Though the only harm was the damage of an ex- pensive county court house, there are good reascns for believing that the missile was thrown for the additional purpose of taking the life of the judge who had been presiding over the trial of white slavers. Thus is indicated the linking together of that great evil and the forces of anarchy, or else those who are determined not to obey the laws of the land regarding white slav- ery have endeavored to strengthen their horrible business by supporting it with anarchistic principles and acts. It calls the attention of the metrop- olis to the dangerous conditions which are still being fostered in its midst. The accidental blowing up of the nest of bombmakers has not caused the disappezrance -of the students of such methods. Now the threats of death and the acts of destruction are being employed for the purpose of swaying justice and though they failed both in the prevention of convictlon and in carrying out the full purpose of the tomb throwing, they nevertheless dis- close a situation towards which that city should never relent until it s overcome. The perpetrators of such a crime deserve the full application of the law. There can be no half way station for public sentiment in such a revelation. Tt is bad enough that one form of evil should have its way as much as it does but when attempts are made to force it through the Black Hand and bombs, it is time to call a rigid halt and see that law and order are properly maintained. EDITORIAL NOTES The operations of the Australian navy is giving Canada something to think about. The man on the corner says: The war may end the tango, but it is ‘an appalling price to pay. It begins to look as if Colonel Roose- velt had learned the first lessons of becoming a good loser, Those who are talking about a short or a long war seem to forget that it all depends upon the horoscope. Those who were looking for an- other Malne affair over in Turkish waters were happily disappointed. Now that war has been declared Carranza and . Villa have a chance to eay just what they think of each other. All the American demands sur- rounding the evacuation of Vera Cruz have been granted—that is, all but the salute. If as Premier Asquith declares the kaiser is beaten, the fact remains nevertheless that he hasnt been con- vinced of it. It is noticed that the cod will oc- cupy a front seat position in the coming codification of the fish laws of Massachusetts. 1t Colonel Roosevelt 1z not geing to take his third cup of coffee, what is the substitute he is going to use, and what's the reason? How Germany can insist upon the Belgians going to work when indus- trial activity is at a low ebb even at home gets no explanation. Despite the increased accommoda- tions the ticket officials at Yale are having their hands full trying to keep the new bowl from overflowing. Mexico's effort to elect a president for twenty days failed. They might have succeeded better had the time Hmit been fixed at twenty hours. Preparations are telng made for the December sesslon of congress, but there is no emall part of that which must be devoted to farewell receptions, After the first class work which the Emden did in the Indlan ocean it doesn’t seem hardly right gow it is cruiser.

There appears to be a de- cided difference of opinion as to an- gels, anyway. It is not so very long ago that an issue was ed con- cerning sculptured angels, the claim being that the artistic winged woman wag a misconception: that the Scrip- tures gave this distinction to men, and a_ near-philosopher — said recently: “Barthly angels are all right, but* !he!‘c isn't mueh-excitement in being married to on ‘The -dictionary tells us an angel may be a messenger from God (no mention made of sex), or an elder in the chureh, or a gold two dollar and a haif piece issued in the reign of Edward 1V, which bore an image cf the Angel Michael, from which ‘it took its name, but not its value, Man with _his customary license has created angels and it must be with the angels he hag created himseif that this com- parison was-made: The saying that “True love mever runs smooth” was doubtless preserved as a warning to.those under enchant ment not to expect smooth eailing in the estuaries of life, but to learn how to meet buffeting conditions that they the better may be prepared for the dis- enchanting experiences in the open sea. No one can tell why true love should never run-smooth, and doubtless there are exceptions-to this rule-as there are to most other rules. A great deal of the matrimonial trouble comes from the inability of “true lovers to stand true in calm ot stress: they separate and a mess of life by marrying someonse else on the rebound who they like leass, and thereby placing over against themselves someone they like more. This begets the wish-I-hadn’t spirit and pute a ban upon joy. Right here let us say life which has to be made the-best of is not the best kind of life.- It is wher true love doesn't run smooth that it gets 'most interest- ing; and the triumph of the spirit gives an improved flavor to life.

If it had been an easy task we should never had been told: “He who ruleth his own spirit is greater than he who conquereth a cit; SUNDAY MORNING TALK GO DO IT. Volumes of wisdom are packed into the inelegant but forceful phrase. Of such ' advice thousands of mortals stand in need. We should take hold and get to work. There is a time to stop planning and purposing, to do the thing at hand. Many of us are inclined to dawdle, ‘We do not name it that, but the name s immaterial. We call it “consider- the circumstances”’ or ‘walting for the occasion.” But it all amounts to the same thing. It means that we temporize, twirl our thumbs, beau- tifully aspire—and do nothing. The occasion is rarely just right for -achievement. Conditions are not often ideal. Much of our work must be done when the mood or the cir- cumstances for hid. During one of General McClellan's Virginia cam- the roads were very muddy from long rains and the commissary wagons and artillery were having a bhard time of it. .The General turned to an old Russian engineer attached to hig staff and asked if the roads were as bad as that in Napoleon's [Russian campaign. “My son,” replied the old man, “the roads are always bad in war.” Life, for anyone who in it whole-heartedly, is like it may be added that of McClellan himself a sane and discriminating critic of his own time wrote, “He was always waiting to have every- thing just as he wanted before he would "attack, and before he could get things arranged as he wanted them the enemy pounced on him and thwarted all his. plans. There is now no doubt that he allowed three dis- tinct occasions to take Richmond to slip through his hands for, want of nerve to run what he considered risks” No unnecessary risk should be run. But risk is better than in- action. Conditions rarely shape up exactly as we want them. Grapple with the task in hand then, whatever it is. Get busy on the work given you. “Whatsoever thine hand findeth to do do it with thy might” Counsel like this is a sort of gospel for the day with a great nost of youth whose hands are in their pockets and whose eyes are on the’ clock. No excuse is accepted in this prac- tical age for failure to ‘“deliver the goods.” Performance is a better rec- ommendation than promise. Only one man in a century or so can write a graceful and convincing book like that of Frederic Henri Amiel to ex- plain how aspiration may displace achievement. We have not the grace nor the persuasiveness of the profes-— sor. There is nothing left for most of us but to accomplish something. Begin today you students. . Take up tomorrow's lessons right er supper, before you get sleepy or visit- ors come in. Take the hardest one first and let your brain wrestle with it, Don't dawdle or dream. Concen- trate on the subject. Hold your mind uapon it till it glows. Finish one task and then take up another. By bed time you may have finished your whole stint. Tomorrow you may face the teacher with confidence and self- respect. It depends on your attitude now. Here is the work. Go do it. You-who are long past school days, it 1s never too late to begin to culti- vate the habit of action. Learn the important art of taking hold. Rescue at least one purpose each day from the dreamy realm of intention into that of fact. Resolution finally be- comes a sort of second nature. ‘We have a thrilling book in the Bible named the “Acts of the Apos- tles.” No record is made of their resolves. A book of achievement may be written in each life if it accepts the task of each hour. “Do noble deeds, not dream them all day long.” ‘What is there that you ought to do today?

It is safe to say that the good pastor of Park church had. not the remotest idea then that his wish for his fellow citizens “of no mean city” would, be so soon granted,- and sajd citizens so soon awakened, as he had wighed, to a realization that they are not provincial not ‘bounded by any narrow harizon, but are in truth actors in a vital drama which has the entire world for its stage, For there is scarce one of us, no matter how humble our station, who has not been touched, in one way or another, by the world-war. and is mnlns -Iou the floo‘.,u‘n' with all great speed, home of the doctor's wealthy patient, overcoming all obstacles of tempest, fallen trees, live wires down, deep gul- lies, et al The physician arrives in the nick of time, the widow's heir iz saved, Lefty is the hero of the hour and of the film.

The first vein of coal in that part of France was discovered at Fresnes, and coal-mining has ever since been the principal industry. Glass-works and beet- factories also contribute their share to the ac- tivities of the place.
