Eve} since the question of making a new contract for supplying the city with electric current has been under consideration much uncertainty has existed in the minds of the citizens as to whether it was more advisable to purchase euch an amount of electric- ity as it was possible to buy and have delivered at the plant ready to be stepped down and distributed, or to maintain the steam plant, and re-equip it for the additional load which it will be required to handle if those seeking more current are going to be supplied. There were few if any informing figures available which would throw light on the situation but The Bulle- tin has been to considerable expense to ascertain the cost of operating mu- nicipal plants in Massachusetts, as fur- nished in its issue of February 17 where it was shown that the cost of production averaged $0.031 a kilowatt hour. In today’s issue figures are present- ed which show the cost of production at the local plant for the past ten vears and nine months, the average cost of producing the electricity being $0.0367 a kilowatt hour, all of the ex- penses of the plant being figured. It Norwich is going to prepare for the new business which is In sight, and that is what it must do for the business which would require the doubling of the steam plant is in sight, it means an additional outlay at the plant of $100,000 at the least which would contribute to the cost of production. Thus if the matter is viewed from a business standpoint, which certain- Iy ought to get serfous consideration, and the city can get a certain amount of current at $0.011 a kilowatt hour and is able to contract for the re- mainder or a substantial portion of it for a figure slightly in excess of that amount, and at the same time save the appropriation of a large sum for additions to the plant it would appear to be the wise thing to do. This is a vlew which must appeal to all citizens who give serious thought to the situation. If Norwich can save a third of the cost of each kilowatt hour by having & contract with one or more produc- ing companies it appears to be a ®ood business proposition and one at least which the commissioners must take Into consideration, in addition to the fact that the cost of production has been showing a slight increase for the past two and three-quarter years. By comparison with the figures which other cities are paying for their municipal lighting Norwich is getting attractive results, and nothing should be done now which will interfere with those in a way to cause an increase. A lowered cost of production, how- ever, is bound to result to the benefit of the municipality and the users of electric current, a fact which must be kept constantly in mind. FEDERAL ROAD BUILDING. Even though this is not the most favorable time to advocate the ex- penditure of government funds for the purpose of constructing good roads about the country even under the most careful arrangement, it is being pushed with much persistency. Such would be a new departure. It would mean an endless expenditure of fed- eral money, for once started there would be no limit to the demands which would be made from all sec- tlons of the country. Objections are being raised to it be- cause it is believed that the money would be spent upon local post roads instead of going towards the devel- opment and betterment of interstate highways, and others feel that the ‘building and maintenance of highways is & matter which should be left to the respective states, and that states ‘which are already spending large sums for that purpose ought not to be bur- dened further through federal taxa- tion in order to provide roads for the states which are unwilling to spend their own money for such con- struction. However if the bill for national good roads is looked upon with fa- vor at ‘Washington to such an extent that the appropriation will be voted, there should be careful attention given to the plan under which the money is to be expended and the character of the roads which are to be built. Mil- lions upon millions have been wasted by states because too little thought was given to this, and the money which was voted for good roads was virtually thrown away. Though it is not always the case where government. money is used, the plans-under which the expenditure is made ought to be such as to insure the best results for the least money. If, however, the need of economy in national affairs gets any attention it will be some time be- fore there will be any government money used in road bullding for states. —— . THE RAIDER MOEWE. New laurels have been won by the commander and crew of the German raider Moewe if the report that it has reached a ‘home port’ means that it has gotten safely to Wilhelmshaven. Boldness has characterized its opera- tions from the very start and by the adherence to the rights of commerce destroyers it has succeeded in sinking or seizing 17 merchant ships of the allies besides being responsible for the destruction of a battleship by the mines which it distributed. From the strict patrol which it is claimed that Great Britain maintains in-the North sea it has been repeated- 1y ridiculed when announcements have been made to the effect that certain ships of the German navy were plan- ning a dash to the Atlantic, yet the commander of the Moewe has demon- strated that it is not only possible to get out but to get back also, and the latter accomplishment is all the more clever since there was supposed to be a special guard to prevent it. That the Moewe used disguises and took advantage of flags of other na- tions is to be believed, and it can be appreciated that it profited extensive- ly from the wireless communications which passed between other ships, while it remained silent and went where danger was the least apparent. The Moewe has been and still remains much of a mystery but the part which it has successfully played as a com- merce raider is bound to receive a prominent place in the history of the war. The Emden came in for much attention in the early days of the conflict by its daring operations but the Moewe eclipses it in that it was able to get back home after one of the most sensational escapades of the war. NEW FEATURE OF SEAMEN’S ACT The additional provision of the sea- men’s act which was delayed until the measure had been in force for a year has now gone into effect. It has not come without a thorough understand- ing on the part of ship owners as to what is required and in obedience to the additional requirements there have been steps taken by those affected to meet the situation. The law as it has stsod up to this time applied to all vessels of domestic registry but the new feature which went into effect Saturday concerns ships of foreign registry which enter American ports. Under this the crews of such vessels have the right to de- mand half of their wages when tha vessels upon which they shipped come into American jurisdiction. They al- so have the right to leave their em- plovment upon such ships and go to others where there may be better con- ditions and better pay, so that hence- forth it will not mean that when they ship on foreign vessels which come to American ports they can be forced to return with that ship. Objections of various kinds have been raised to this condition and the claim is made that it will lead to the dissipation of a large amount of the wages which such employes would or- dinarily carry back home to their families even though no change in em- ployment is made while the ship on which they sailed is in American wa- ters. With shipping as it is at the pres- ent time with war complications impos- ing conditions which makes it impos- sible to get enough vessels to handle the business that is piling up await- ing foreign gelivery, the effect of this addition to the seamen’s law is for the time being discounted, but there will nevertheless be plenty of oppor- tunity for studying its effects and as soon as conditions get back to normal the chance to pick out the justice or the injustice of the act will be fur- nished. EDITORIAL NOTES. Portugal appears to be taking its time answering that near ultimatum from Germany. If the display of styles amounts to anything it ought not‘to be long be- fore the good old summer time ar- rives. While most everything else has pre- vailed in abundance, there has been no serious outbreak as yet of spring fever, When a German air raid results only in the death of an infant it must be put down as ruthless destruction and nothing else. The latest Ford joke, according to the manufacturer's own admissio: was the filing of his name for presi- dential candidate. Berlin must have come to the re- alization of the fact before this, that it is no Alphonse-Gaston matter get- ting into Verdun. — It must be disconcerting to Carran- za, with all the new troubles bobbing up, that he has not been able to dis- cover Villa’s hiding place. The man on the corner says: It is during these cold mornings that man discovers the need of an efficiency ex- pert most at the getting-up time. From the way in which the Russian bear is feeding upon Turksy it looks as if he was finding plenty of suste- nance and little or no resistance. From the way in which Senator O’'Gorman continues to oppose the pres- ident it looks as if he was being ig- nored in the selection of that New York postmaster. Even those who Lyman intendea to have held him make a million escaped through no fault of theirs, they will probably be ready to do their part when the next get rich quick operator appears. ‘While most of the drug store sup- plies have be steadlly advancing, the small boy has been eagerly watch- ing for the time when it would put castor ofl, and sulphur and molasses out of reach of the pocketbook. The examiners for the interstate commerce commission are repeatedly asking if other steamers than those owned by the New Haven road would not do in the Sound transportation business, but why force those whose business is concerned to take up with experiments and probable failures when there is no opposition to the existing conditions?

It covers an area of about flve square miles, and its barracks are capable of housing 50,000 men without crowd: So far about $0,000 Russians and sev- eral thousand Italians have been quartered there, since the establish- ment of the camp in January, 1915. At present there are in camp 304 Russian ofiicers and about 17,000 men, the re- mainder having been detailed to do work on Austrian farms. The barracks are large wooden structures, covered on the outside with 1 W s oo g < C . r shot right in the thick tar paper, painted white.

The barracks described are intended for the ordinary Russian, the peasant, who, as a rule is whoily illiterate, and with whom the “intellizent” does not want to associate. The experience has been so that the two classes o not mix well, and rather than have con- stant strife between the prisoners, the Austrian government decided to sep- arate them. For the “Intelligenz Kiasse” a dif- ferent sort of barracks has been built. It resembles the common barracks but instead of having eight sleeping plat- forms, it has two floors, upon which a sort of wooden atigue” or work S th fu ing form as I fell out of that chair.

Only fifty “In- |Eot one. it seemed she had medicine telligents” can be housed in a building of the usual size. “We try to satisfy, so far as we can, the wishes of he prisoners,” sald Gen. Notte: “In_our own army we do not know such distinctions. We have of- ficers and privates, and no other class. But with the Russians it seems to be different. “The intelligents” are us- ually people of some refinement to whom the constant association with the untutored peasant would undoudt- edly be of great hardship. One has to bear in mind that men in prison camps must_associate with one another more | i closely than anywhere else. It is not our business to either reform Rus- sia’s social structure, nor to make the enforced stay in our prison camps more irksome than confinement nat- urally is. So we went to the additional trouble and expense of building the barracks. for the “intelligents.” An ‘officer connected with the fin- ancial administration was of the opin- ion that so far the Austrian gov ment has disbursed considerably more than 33,000,000 crowns for the Klef Muenchen camp, and that the keepinz of Russian prisoners had entailed an expenditure of approximately 1,100, 000,000 crowns, and in Austria-Hung- ary there are today 30 other prison camps. The recurency of diseases is sald to [T be connected with the failure of many | of the prisoners to do the best for|q themselves hygienically. Though re- |4 cent arrivals of prisoners showed no|s case of cholera, five cases developed about two weeks ago. Une of the men four are on the road to recov- Typhus and typhoid also appear occasionally, and tuberculosis is ever- present, because many of the pris- oners were aiflicted with the disease in th n & 1 ¥ a dormant state before they were g drafted into the Russian army. On|¢ January 12, Camp Klein Muenchen o had 34 patien of this class. Very often Russians are brought in whose wounds, received in actions pr or to the one in which they were cap- tured need attention. On the day on which The Associated Press corre- spondent visited the camp ciose to a hundred of such cases had either been disposed of by operations or were under observation Usualy, the troubie is due to a bullet or small fragmnt of shell in the patient’s body, which some Russian surgeon apparently thought best to leave undisturbed. Of 80,000 men who have been in the camp, 560 have died. Most of the lat- ter came to the camp sick or infected. They are buried in a pine grove. Graves are marked with a black, Wood- en cross, bearing a number. The cross is later replaced by a headstone cast of concrete. This headstone is given the number formerly carried b, the cross In the mortuary chapel erected on the cemetery a book is kept in which by means of this num- ber the name of the dead prisoner may be found. _ The cemetery at this camp, shows incidentally, to what extent enmity may cease once a man has been taken prisoner. For ornamental purposes there has just been completed a small structure 300 feet away from the chapel Between the two bulldings runs an arcade supported on its open h: h a 3 o da side on arches and closed In on the other side by a wall. On this wall will be placel tablets bearing the names of the Russians who have died in the camp. The bronze tablets com. commemorating thus the fate of these unfortunates are now being cast. The dedicatory inscription on each tablet will be: * “Here died for his father- land and lles buried then will come the names. The food of the Russian prisoners consists of a soup and bread in the morning, soup and a meat dish at noon, and another soup and bread at night. Three times a week a sort of pudding is added to the noon meal. Each man is allowed 17 1-2 ounces of bread a day. No tea or coffee are issued, but the prisoners may buy these at a price of two hellérs, or about one-third Amer- ican cent a quart. Tobacco is obtain- able in the same way. p! b a by al n the little dark woman uneasily prowl- | ing around the Toom.

Rheumatism is easicr to avold than to cure, states a well-known author- ity. We are advised to dress warmly; keep the feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less meat, but drink plenty of good water. Rheumatism is a direct result of eating too much meat and other rich foods that produce uric acid which is absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accumulating and circu- lating through the system, eventually settling in the Jjoints and muscles causing stiffness,” soreness and pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a table- spoonful in a glass of water and drink before breakfast each morning for a week. This is sald to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impuritnes.
