The constant efforts which are be- ing made to gét around the laws of this country in times of péace ars sufficient to keep the .authoritles on their guerd at all times, but ‘particu- larly is. this S0 at the present time when this country has too large a number who are doing their utmest to defy the regulations regardless of what form they take. New attention is directed to thIs by the arrest of three G®rmans and a Swedé for trying to ship a consider- able amount of rubber from this country to Germany by way of the Swedish line of steamers without fil- ing a manifest of the goods. The rub- ber which was in sheets had been placed in envelopes -and hidden. in trunks with false bottoms and a music.cabinet and carried aboard the ship as the property of these men, There is of course no objection un- der normal, conditions of permitting the sale of rubber or any other goods to Germany. Foreign trade is sought regardless of the purchaser, but tpere wre requirements which have to be met whether the articles exported are automobiles, pins or rubber, and it was the failure of these men to abide by the law which got them into trou- ble. It is highly probable that either they or others have been able to get similar consignments through and that the attempted shipment of this lot was not the first time such an eva- sion of the United States eriminal code had been undertaken, but it only em- phasizes the fact that, while ~those who are charged with enforcing such laws may at times seem to be too fus- sy and too strict, they cannot be too thorough when it comes to catching those who are actually doing their best to beat the law. THE LOAN TO FRANCE. When the proper amount of thought is given the matter, there can be no surprise that the suggestion which has been made that this country glve to France'a large sum of money, which according to the suegestion has been fixed at a billfon dollars, has met with so much favor throughout the coun- ry. This is because this country by th: stahd whith it has taken regarding armed neutrality &nd the likelihood that it will eventually get into the war on the side of the allies will have reagon to use its forces and resources in the fighting of Germany, and be- cause of the debt of gratitude which It is feit that this country owes to France for the services which it ren- dered to this nation in the days gone by, when its help was of the greatest value. It is natural therefore that this idea should make its appeal. The oppor- tunity will doubtless be presented for us to show our gratitude and when that time comes there can bé no ques- tion but what such financial assist- ance would be of the same relative value to France in its present situa- tion that the millions which Franklin was able to secure from France were to this country during the revolution- ary days. And then of course France did more than to lend us money, for the financial assistance which the United States received was a loan and not a gift. ‘Whether the proposition which has been put forth would be the most ac- ceptable manner of expressing our gratitude and friendship will doubtless be determined before any such step gets beyond the stage of a mere Sug- gestion. There are of course other ways in which we can and will help if present indications deyelop Into facts. EDITMI:L NOTES. Now that a tin can famine is threat- ened, the dogs will have one less cause for Wworry. Geography is one of those things which is undergoing a long period of decided uncertainty. The man oh the corner says: Potato bugs will look more ltke an enemy than ever this summer. It isn't too early to begin to think about getting.the fishing tackle ready in anticipation of the trout season. The pacifists appear to be able to work themselves up for a good sized fight when_ they feel the spirit move. With desertions by Bulgarian regi- ments the situation does not appear s0 rosy for the central powers along the Saloniki front. Indiana is getting some econcrete examples of the kind of havoc that is being wrought over in Europe though from a diffexent cause. Two dozen mew destrovers - have been ordered by the war department, and it would be well if théy were ready to put into service tomorrow. Horrors of horrers!

The Sidewalk Question. Mr. Editor: The Misses Lucas, whose letter appeared in The Bulle- tin Saturday morning, while proféss- ing to be in favor of putting the side- walks of the iiy into good condition, compldin both of the law and its en- forcement. The writer,® one of those ordered to construct a granolithic sidewalk, and who will cheerfully com- ply, takes a different view of the mat- ter. Let us bear in mind that the side- walks in the city of Norwich in many places are, and for a long tme have been, in a disgraceful condition. Im- provement has been discussed, by the public and by prior municipal admin- istrations, and nothing has been done. Now, if the evil is to be remedied the municipality must act, and in the way authorized by law. Left to the pro- prietors themselves, some act and then are ainoved by other’s inaction. The charter of the city points out the way, and the only way it can be done by the publ It provides that the eommon coun- cil “may, from' time to time, brder the proprietors of the lands and buildings fronting such sidewalks and gutters, at their own expense, to level, raise and form, and when necessary to repair such sidewalks and gutters on their several fromts, according to the width, course, helght and level designated as aforesaid, and also to flag or to pave such sidewalks and gutters and to repair such flagging or pavement in such manner as -said court of common council shail direct.” No matter what plan is adapted, some are sure to feel that the wisest course has not been pursued and that they have not been fairly dealt with. While complaining of the mayor and reporting their interviews with him, the Misses Lucas omit to mention that before any order was passed, the proposition was heard by the com- mon council, after legal notice to them, and that they appeared by their attorney and were fully heard, making the same argument which they now make in trying to try the case over again in the newspapers. The council decided on the order made, and the writers of the letter in question are quite too hasty in thinking the onmly mind in the council is that of the mayor and all the others are nobodies. But some one had to take the initia- tive and this may well have been the mayor with the advice and assistance of Mr. Chandler, the city's engineer. 1 do net know who would have been more proper nersons. The complainants are Qissatisfied with_the law. For one thing, the city should béar part of the expense it is said. I leave the question for others to discuss whether the proprietors of lands on Spring street, the Joseph Perkins road or on nowhere should contribute towards the - éxpenss _of sidewalks on the leading streets. But such a plan would be whollx new and without preécedent in Norwith. The construction of the granolithic side- walks the whole length of Sachem street, for example, was done by the adjoining property owners and not by the _city. Will_til# principle of once flag, al- ways fla®, hold? It would seem clear enough under the charter, that if a& walk needs repairs, the common coun- cil should state how it is to bé done and aré not bound for all time to keep it flag. Evidently the common couneil have simply taken the law as they found it, and they .are no more responsfble for its provisions than for the law of PMoses. Neithar these complainants nor others who t good sidewalks (provided they are constructed ac- cording to /their own notiens), nor prior city administrations, nor our representatives in the general assem- bly have at this or any of session of that body moved for chinges along the lines suggested, and/ thede pro- visions haye been on the statute books for more than fifty years. It is puret- ty late to begin complaining of the law. i They next complain of granolithic walks, and note instances in_Boston and New York as well as in Norwich, where the granolithic waiks have be- come defective.
