It is w strange thing for them to ‘be advocating, but the democrats are taliking serfously of abandoning the free list and resorting to the Te-es- tablishment of the tariff on many Im- ports. This s not so much because they have been convinced that they made a grave mistake, for they are loath to make such an admission, but they are confronted with a big hole in the treasury. This deficlt is already large enough but there are excellent promises that it will be increased In the next year or two and some ener- getic steps must be made to overcome it if possible. For the month of November the to- tal jmports in this country reached $177,000,000 from which, customs were collected amounting to hearly $17,000, 000. In November, 1912, under the re- publicans the total imports were $156,000,000 from which the revenue was over 25 and a half million or al- most_ nine million greater under the republican administration than under democratic when the imports were $24,000,000 more. The democrats have witnessed the surplus which was left by the previ- ous administration melt away, and in its place is a deficit which is grow- ing at the rate of a million dollars a day. [Bfforts have been made to check it by the resort to all kinds of taxa- tion but still it grows and now the plan is to meet it by the good old re- publican method of the tariff. The proof of the pudding is In the eatinz of it, it is claimed, and .it must b apparent that the democrats will soon be forced to admit that they havehad their lll of free trade methods. THE MANN ACT. A decision which has been looked forward to for some time by the United States supreme court concerns the Mann white slave act about which there has been so much confusion throughout the country because of the fact that it was possible to Interpret it as applying to cases which did not come under the classification of com- mercialized vice. Lower courts have taken different views of the provisions. The most of the prosecutions which have been brought under the law have concern- ed cases which did not include the sale of women but were personal af- fairs between the parties involved. It has also been disclosed that the very fact that the Jaw exists has furnished those having the inclination with the opportunity to practice blackmail on an extensive scale and even to in- veigle ‘people into situations which would force them to pay over hand- some sums rather than face what they considered legitimate threats to have them prosecuted under the law. It was not supposed when the law was passed that personal escapades were aimed at. Those were matters which the state laws were able to take care of, but according to the su- preme court opinion the law covers them as well as the cases of comm clalization of women. The court has interpreted the law and it holds that it is as broad as it has been claimed to be regardless of the chance it af- fords for blackmall end if there are to be any changes made In it, it is the duty of congress to do it, and con- gress now has a basis for action If it so desires. h, Tuesday, Jan. 16, 1917. _ The Bulletin is sold In every towp and on all of he R.

From a business man’s standpoint I would like to make a few suggestions for the present Receiver to carefully consider. No doubt ali the bookkeep- ing and expert examinations of each and every asset of this ecompany have long ago been completed, and all’ that is now left to be done is to dispose of what assets that are still left and then wind up the company’s affairs. A $50.00 a year box in the Norwich Savings Society deposit vault would no doubt hold all the valuable docu- ments of this company. Why not then discharge the bookkeepers and stenog- rapher and move the books up to your own law office and devote your time as receiver to closing up this fimmny'- affairs as quickly as possi- e. ¥or almost four years by varlous ad- vertisements, and personal solicita- tions, the receivers have tried_unsuc- cessfully to dispose of the banking house at private sale. Just stop and think in that time in paying the dif- ferent carrying charges on this prop- erty that is in the tax list at over $50.- 000. And the small amount of revenue recetved from the few tenants that are now there, this property is not en- hancing in value, In fact, with _th large number of vacant offices it is steadily depreciating. It has got to be sold, why not stop this_expense now? Sell it at public sale for what it ‘will bring, and turn it into cash. The above suggestion applies to the Man- warring and other properties that you have for sometime been advertising to sell at private sale. A BUSINESS MAN. Norwich January 15 1@§7. STORIES OF THE WAR | LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Truth Will Prevail. Mr. Editor: There came to the shores of America a short time ago, a dark, slight woman, with an intense, intellectual face and quiet voice. With her came her son, a lad of seven. Months before she left her native land she was hounded by secret agents, her letters were opened, and her home was watched night and day by the police, and when the English government found she had set sail for the United States, it appealed to the American immigration officials to refuse her landing. And the only crime charged against her, is that she is the widow of a man murdered by an English anmy officer. This lady is Mrs. Sheéhy-Skefling- ton. The murder of Skefington was an uncivilized crime, still we know of anologists who try to justify the deed on the ground that Britigh military hirelings in Ireland can commit n$ wrong. Her object in coming to Amer- ica is to lecture and tear asidé the clork of infamy that England covers over the reign of lawlessness and in- timidation she has installed in Ire- land. She tells the true story - of British misrule and shows they are the same bloodthirsty savages as in the days of Cromwell. His widow tells of her ~ husband’s arrest, his treatment while in custody and how he was shot without trial, and even denied the ministrations of the priest before his death. How his body was buried, un- coflined, and no information given to her of what had occurred. How, aft- er the murder, they came to her home to_terrorize her and his little son. Mrs. Skefington is here to awaken public opinion to the real conditions in Ireland. She is highly educated, and will make a deep impression. The ar- rangements for her lecture tour are in the hands of John D. Moore, 26 Cort- landt street, New York. After hearing her lecture 'you have a clearer percep- bappy In their long winter coats, were fairly covered with mud as well. ‘Something about the epectacle re- minded one of Civil war days in Amer- jca.

Substitutes and Imitations in Germany The extent to which substitutes and imitations are rampant in Germany to- day form one of the most Interesting subjects of the now seasonable re- views. The rsatz’—the German word for substitute—is now common not only in the line of foodstuffs but in the chemical industry, textiles and metals. Though from time to time indications of this change in German life have become known abroad, there have lately appeared interesting sum- maries which afford a sharper focus on the situation. Some of the items in this development, under their respec- tive heads, are as follows: Saltpeter: Before the war Germany imported annually over $40,000,000 worth of saltpeter for agricultural and ammunition purposes, mainly from Chile, and all of this regular eupply was lost at the outset of the war. To- day countless factories in Germany are manufacturing saltpeter, whereas before the war there were only a few such experimental establishments, and Germany is now able not only to sup- ply the increased amount of saltpeter necessary for ammunition, but also has been able to furnish all that is necessary for fertilizers. Aluminum: Before the war the supply of Bauxite for the manufacture of aluminum had been imported from France, and the cutting off of this Where the British Tommy and French in its acts against Belgium but is one bit of evidence that it un- and doesn’t like the way-the ©of the world feels about them.

There they are dug in. the man in khaki and the man in pale blue.

History recalls how she destroyed Irish men, women, supply led German scientists to discov- a process of aluminum manufacture by electricity from ordinary clay. Mineral Oils: Chemical experts in the German coal fields haye discovered new ways of extracting oils from their coal, partly relieving the serious con- dition resulting from the cutting off of mineral oil imports, which, in 1913, amounted to no less than $277,000,000.

Mr. Editor: I would to attention of both ‘“the “Disgusted Depositor” to the fact there are assets Bt Lot oo, e reesty that either can speak the other’s ton- gue. It is not a show spot, this meet- ing place of the two great allied armies in France, nor is there a definite mark to show the dividing line. 1t is just a mingling point, not an ebrupt juncture. For perhaps a hundred yeards at the Joining sector the French and British Bsoldlers fraternize and visit. There is no break in the line any- where along the front and from time to time the meeting place of the arm- les is shifted, according to the and the agreements of the French and British staffs. Often the Germans are at a loss to know who is opposing them—French or British—and all sorts of ruses and subterfuges are restorted 10 in the attempt to gain information. It is considered of great importance on both sides to know just who the fel- lows are In the opposing trench, and ‘when there is a relief, or change in the line, the world war resolves itself at least locally into a hazardous game of hide and seek. Tommy and Poilu have the greatest respect for each other and if Tommy has been over very long he generally knows a phrase or two of Fremch, which coupled with war slang that is common to both armies, gives a med- fum of communication mutually em- joyed.

The supply of this has been developed until now it is sald to be sufficient to last for another eight months.

Since the of the war Ger- many has been dependent entirely up- on the inferfor Bavarian graphite, but German chemists have been able to find a process by which the Bavarian article can be purified to a 97 per cent. standard.

Zinc and aluminum and zinced iron find their use mow in switchboards and the like in place of marble or slate. Foodstuffs: Imitations have played almost If not quite as large a part substitutes for foodstuffs of which & shortage hag been creuted by the war. Many of theé imitations are of doubtful nutrious value, some of them have proved dangerous, but the authorities have kept a watchful eye on the sit- uation and have promptly put the ban on the bad imitations and required the proper labelling of the good ones.

Germany has learned to alter its tastes somewhat and to be content { with brews that are probably juet as wholesome as tea but not quite the same in appearance and contents, 1, OTHER VIEW POINTS Waterbury has found out that the city cannot hold responsible, under the present statutes, the man who does not clean his sidewalk and that community has had to pay dam ages for a fall and injuries on an un- cleaned sidewalk. It was presumed that the city was originally held re- sponsible in such cases and then the municipality recovered from the prop- erty owner, but as the supreme court: rules that the city owns the walks he responsibility for all acci- dnts on sidewalks, but whether that will be constitutional under the law will be a question for the supreme court to decide. The decision in the ‘Waterbury case, however, ought to act as a precedent. In Meriden the situation would be complicated by a charter amendment, similar to those in_other Connecticut cities, which ab- solves the city from responsibility unless there is a structural defect in the walk. Attorney Aubrey, when corporation counsel, caused this to be passed, and his understanding is that in this case only the perten Who falls is to blame if the is not defec- tive. Whether that is constitutional or not is a deicate question. As long as the city claims the ownership of the walks it should see that the walks are cleaned. Just how that can be done and responsibility firmly fixed is a problem for our lawyers.—Meri- den Journal vi ni America is a busy natlon. Bridgeport is a proportionately busy city.
