His record in congress and his experience make his services particularly valuable to this common- wealth and the countr: Whatever thought the senator may have had of retiring it must have been apparent long ago that such was not in accord- ance with the wish of his constituents, and as in the case of the governor his renomination unquestion: means his reelection. The names of Hughes, McLean and Holcomb are goinz to mean much to the voters of Connec- ticut this fall. SUBMARINE MERCHANTMEN ‘The entente allies may have expect- #d ‘that this country, as well as other neutral nations, would be wiiling to Aceept.the proposal made by them to the effect that all submarines be con- sidered vessels of war, but if such was the case the memorandum which bas been sent in reply thereto must be a bitter disappointment. This country has refused to sanction any such proposition and that was the only stand that could logically be taken and not take sid with one or the other of the contending forces in the war. The object of the entente appeal was of course to stop the operations of the merchant submarines, one of which has already gotten through the British blo de t e and a second Is claimed to be on its way to this country at the present time, but it was rlearly demonstrated thattheDeutsch- land was of such construction and so equipped that it was by no means possible to class it as a warship. Tt Is a mérchant the same as any vther vessel which is exclusively en- gaged in trading operations and sub- fect to all the rules and regulations which govern such ships. For their own protection it might be not only an act of wisdom but a move to prevent needless trouble if there,was some special desiznation on d while the extensive prosecutions that have been mads have been pro- ductive of much good and resulted not only in the reformation of many ad- dicts but have thrown the necessary obstacles In the way of others getting into the clutches of oplum ang its de- rivatives, there are constantly being Tevealed instances which show that the fight must be waged with greater determination. This is made plain by the disclosure just made in New York that school Children are belng used for the dis- tribution of the narcotics and by the revelations which come from Phila- Gelphia of the great prevalence of the drug habit in that city. The fight agalnst drug users of all kinds has been well begun but it cannot be per- mitted to show any let up. Rather is there reason for throwing greater forces into the field to combat it. THE JOINT COMMMISSION. Interest is bound to center in the deliberations and cutcome of the com- mission which has undertaken to ad- just the difficulties between this coun- try and Mexico, and to this section added interest is given by the fact that the conference is to be held at Groton. 1t is of course sincerely hoped that the mction which is taken by the com- mission will be successful in bringing about the desired result. When Sec® retary Lansing declared that if sus- picion, doubt and aloofness were to mal the deliberations little could be expected, and made it plain that he believed that much of the existing trouble was due to misunderstandings and false judgments he did not mince matters at all, and the attitude of the fexican members as voiced by Luis Cabrera when he said that the result which his commission seeks is the ame sought by the American dele- gates paved the way for the proper king of a start.

There is something melancholy in the thought that it is but a matter of a.week now before the bell will ring for the straw hat. Of course no one thinks of putting any blame upon the “big four” for the nce that has been noticed in the price of foodstuffs. With Billy Sunday getting ready for his attack upon Boston, he must realize that he has got to do better than the Germans have in their seige of Verdun. Now trips are being made over Ni- agara Falls in an aeroplane but it doesn’t furnish half as much of a thrill as the act of the fellow who took it in a barrel.

" How? Borrowing! "It's a res- ular pastime here. Why, I don't be- lieve I've a thing in my possession that hasn't been borrowed time and time again—usually just when I most wanted to use it myself. For instance, 1 hed my dining room curtains yestcrday, only to remember that Mrs. Pell, on the third floorehad my cur- tain stretchers. T hated to go ask her for them, so I ironed the curtains in- stead of stretching them—and, my dear the way they do hang now! “When the warm iweather began I bought an ice cream freezer.

This country remained aloof in the First Balkan War (1912). During the Sec- ond War, when Bulgaria, Serbia, and Greece were fizhting over the spoils whick had besn wrested from _the Turks in the previcus etruggle, Rou- mania again remained an interested bystander until the losing days of the conflict; then she threw her weight with Greece and Serbia in time to de- mand as her reward the valuable strip of Buigarian territory lying north and east of a line drawn between Turtukai and Baltchik, in the Dobrudja region, betwe the Danube and the Black Sea. This prize added some 2,900 cquare miles to her area “If, as is reported, Russia has prom- ised the big Palkan state the important province of Bossatabia, which adjoini it on the northeast, 17,000 square miles will be added to Roumanian domains, together with two_and a half million hundred people. In addition to_this tempting spoil of diplomacy, it is high- ly probable that the Roumanians wil! expect Bukowina as their share of the ‘parings’ in the event the Central Powers are defeated, for this Austrian crowrsland was a part of the Rou- ! manian province of Moldavia up to 1777 at which time it was appropriated by the larger nation. Roumanfans still comprise a large percentage of Bu- kowina’s population. “The Roumarian war budget for the fiscal year ending just prior fo the out- break of the war was -20,000,000.
