The opportunity is afforded to th taxpayers today, by the hoiding of a special meeting for the purpose of balloting, to determine what they are going to do in behalf of bet- ter sidewalks and the satistying of a crying need in tha* ~espect. The proposition before the voters is the approval or dirapproval of a bond issue to the amount of $30,000 to be devoted exclusivels to the build- ing of new sidewalks, $5,000 of - hicn bonds together with c:o interest must be met each year. Tke money is to be expended in cooperation with the propesty owners, the cily to pay haif of the cost of consiruction and the owner half, wherever walks are or- dcred laid by the ccurt of common council, it thus meaning that if the issue is authorized that new walks to the value of $60,000 will be built, and the expense, so far as the bond issue is concerned, distributed over a period of six years. Norwich has wretched sidewalks. They are in many cases a disgrace to the city and to the owner in front of whose property they are located. That there should be an improvement in the general condition, in which all sections should share, must be appar- ent to all who have given the matter any thought whatever. Good walks are needed for the comfcrt and conveni- ence of the public as well as desirable for the appearance of the city. This city has been backwaid in this re- spect long enough and there should be sufficient civic pride to get back of and put through this proposition which is a consistent and well de- vised plan of action. it rests with the pecple to say what will be done. It is a matter which should no: be neg- lected. There shouil be a full and free expression at the polls today which will be open, in the town hall only, from nine in the morning until eight in the evening. BE RIGHT AND BE FIRM. 'The necessity of fuliyydetermining the facts surrounding the sinking of the Arabic before any action is taken by this country is fuliy apparent. There may be nothing in the 'ast anal- ysis which will alter the opinion so Zenerally expressed country as to what should be dome, but it fs highly imporfant.that there sHould be a full what took place or d‘d not take place Béfore anything is dor Testimony obtained from official sources and from pussengers on the ill-fated vessel indicate that there is no loophole through which a valid ex- cuse can be offered for or by Ger- many, yet ihe matter is of such im- portance that haste cannot be allowed to characterize whatever move this country will make. It needs to be in full possession of all ihe fact That accomplished, however, firm- riess should prevafl 13 whatever move this eountry finds it advisable to make, ‘whether it be thé severance of diplo- matie relations or something else. Thero is indignation throughout the country at the apparent disregard for the rights of this country and its sub- Jects as a neutral, and it is but nat. ural, and it is time to give Germany to understand that any intcrpretation of mildness as the resnit of ‘he notes ‘which have been sent by this country to Berlin is not to be tclerated when it comes to imposing on the rights of this' country and its people. ITALY AGAINST TURKEY, The action of Italy in declaring war upen Turkey brings ty a head a move which has been threa‘ened for some time and means the launching of a stronger offensive for the opening of the Dardanelles. Italy has by no means sent all its forcvs agalust Lus- tria but has had in readiness a por- tion of its flect and a number of army tkroughout the knovledge of just has been occupied in getting to and maintaining the -position which the allies now hold and yet they are far frem realizing thair purpose. For Italy to send a fresh army into that region means new and greater prob- lems for the Turks to wrestle with and in their cramped position it bids fair to prove a move that will bring re- sults at a time when they are greatly needed. The blow must be . struck before Turkey gets the relief in the way of ammunition which it needs. Italy's action is by no means a sur- prise. It comes in the natural course of events and with Turkey doing just what was needed in the way of prov- ocation by 1ts interference with Italy's representatives, DOLLAR DAY. The coming of Doilar day in Nor- wich next Wednesday is an event which should be hafled with enthusi- asm by the purchasing public of Fast- ern Connecticut. It mecns Iaud o them and was devised for the purpose of not only giving the.n the attractive cpportunities afforded by sach an oc- casion, but of gettnz them hette: ae- quanted with the ‘1ading cond: h always prevail bere. Xerwich is the nataral best trading center in this nart of the state, a fact with which a iarge proportion of the people are weli acquainted and the convenience of the tramsportation accommodations should tring forth the ivers in large numbers to benefit from the offerings which have been arranged for their beicfit. In this urfdertal manifested a striki cperation upon the pesc housek They have recognized the, importance which is attzehed to such| 3 rroposition for the interest of all ccncerned, buyer as well as mer- chart, and the manner in which they have joined hands is une of the pleas- ing features of the advance efforts for Tollar day. Norwich should be filled with tar- gain seekers from far and near next Wednesday. There wiil be a welcome extended by each and civery store and no midsummer event promises to prove as great a success, or meet with such satisfactory results for all Eastern Connecticut as a participation in Dol- lar day. Opportunity is written all over it and opportunity -annot be side- stepped with wisdom. MUST RESPECT NEUTRALITY. When this country set forth its po- sition relative to the war in Europe and declared itself neatral, it ex- pected that there would be proper respect raid thereto by the different belligererts. It was a stand which should command that respect by the accredited representativeg of the na- tions at war. Where members of the diplomatic corps are involved there are exemp- tions from prosecution in this coun- try should they violate the neutrality laws and the course which is provided under such circumstances is the no- tifving of the country to which they belong that they are no longer ace ceptable, which means their recall will follow. Much activity has been man- ifested Wy representatives who are not in the diplomatic service, but who are consular representatives. That they may have believed thay they had sim- ilar privileges to the diplomats is to be gained from certaln actions which have followed, but in the opinion of the United States district attorney at San Francisco, backed up by the de- partment of justice, such is not the They are commercial, not dip- representatives, and are as liable as anyone else to punishment for violation of the country’s laws though their prosecution rests in the discretion of tke government as a matter of policy. The endorsement by the attornev general bf the action taken by the dis- trict attorney at San Francisco in lay- ing the cases of British and German consuls before the grand jury thus gives support which is called for. The idea that neutrality can be disregard- ed for advantages which will accrue to their countries is not to be tolerated. EDITORIAL NOTES. The city with good sidewalks is a city «which® makes a strong appeal to the people, The note books which this and other nations have been making do not ap- pear to have accomplished much. Russia has declared that it needs the friendship of the United States. When will Germany go on record in that respect? The man on the corner says: The day is approaching when people with remedies will make hay fever as prom- inent as rheumatism. Now that the president has had his eyes tested he will be in a position to give the new situation the ecriti- cal vision that is needed. “Those who are looking for business from pleasant Sundays do not stop to think that the weather man has other considerations on his mind.
