There has been considerable said since congress declared this country in a state of war about the organizing of a coalition government. That would mean the calling to the govern- ment’s assistance of those who could be of the greatest aid to the nation during the war regardless of party Hnes, but in the position which this country has taken party lines not only should, but must be, sbolished. The country must stand solidly back of the administration and those who are directing its affairs. It isn't necessary to call republicans to places in the cabinet simply because they are re- 1901, 90%, average. April 7, 1917.. publicans. The time has arrived when the coalition of the whole country is demanded. Unity has been the watchword in the past and it should be at the pres- ent time, and in dwelling upon this Elthu Root, in his address before the Republican club of New York, struck a keynote, as he has on many other occasions, when he said “We as re- publicans, banish from our hearts all thought of partisanship and pledge ourseives to do our duty to our coun- try in good repute or ill repute, in success or failure. That is-the way that the republican party must sho #hat it Joves this country it loves place and power.” Such of course is the only position 10 be taken for as Mr. Root said in praising the stand which the presi- dent had taken in his messaze, we are fighting for liberty and justice as against oppression and barbarism, the Hberty of mankind and the ideals of America, and that tannot be split on the rocks of partisan politics. For the time being the country must put partisanship behind it and present a united front. more than THE DEADLY. MINE. Not only the submarine but the mine has ‘plaved a much greater part in the present war than it has ever done before. It has been uSed without re- gard to what the consequences might be upon neutrals and it has been re- sponsible for the sinking of much val- uable shipping and the loss of many lives. And at the present time the Germans have by no means abandoned it for the submarine. Rather are they making use of it in connection with the ruthless naval warfare, and what desperate chances are being taken in order to derive the greatest results from it is clearly disclosed in the tale Which is told on the return trip of the American liner St. Louis to this coun- try after having miraculously escaped trouble from such a source as It was about to enter a British port. A rusty looking tramp fiying a dirty Norwesian flag had been discovered throwing bar- rels overboard and each of these bar | rels had been found to contain a mine When inquiry was mado regard- ing this harmless looking deckioad it was claimed that tke barrels contained fish destined for Cardiff but there was little in the way of an explanation which could be offcred whep the rea- Son for throwing them overboard he- fore reaching their destination was sought. . " Mine sweepers succeeded in gathcr- ing in somcthing less than a bundred of these barrels, but it is supposed that it was one of them which the New York encountered in that same iocality and-it all shows how little re- gard is paid to ihe rishts of shipping ‘when such dastardly efforts are put forth and when such a powerful aux- * dliary to the submarine is employed THE EDDYSTONE HORROR. On account of the tcrrors which have been set loose in the prosecution of the war and the handicapping of | the enemy, conclusions are quickly _ jumped at following such a horrible t: s that which occurred in the munitions factory at Eddystone, judgment 1s neverthe. Had it been a plant ves were not utilized. trouble was and upon whom the re- sponsibility can be placed. It is need- ed not solely to clear up any uncer- tainty which exists regarding this particular affair, but for the purpose of making anything lke it im- possible in other establishments of the kind. VIOLATING THE EMBARGO. Ever since this country has been en- forcing the embargo on the shipment of arms and ammunition to Mexico there have been indications from time to time that plans were not only being made to disregard the order but that consignments of both were reaching those in Mexico who were engaged in revolutionary operations. Such meant of course that in case of this country experiencing further trouble from that direction that its troops would be sub- ject to attack with munitions which had heen manufactured in their own country. The enforcement of the embargo has therefore been a duty to which this government has been forced to give much attention. How well its suspicions have been justified and. how: carefully its interests have been zuard- ed is now revealed by the overhaul- ing by two United States desirovers of a scheoner destined for the west coast of Mexico with a cargo of am- munition. This_calls not only for the confisca- tion of the Intercepted shipment but the running down and punishm-nt of those who were involved therein, and this does not apply colely to those who were caught with the goods for it is plain that there are others hisher up who unquestionably are more re- sponsible than those who were in charge of the vessel. Tt has been fre quently claimed that revolutionists in Mexico have received their encourage- ment and support from this side of the line. Such might Dbe possible without transgressing the law, but at the present time with the embargo in effect it is a glaring Infractlon and one which should be treated with full regard for the nature of the offense. STATE MANAGERS. Many experiments have been at- tempted in the past few vears for the improvement of municipal government and the adoption of business methods in connection therewith. These have included the commission form of city government and the city manager plan and where they have been introduced the results have variea in accordance with the support whick has been’given to them and in accordance with the kind of men who have been selected to assume these responsibilities, it being recognized that where the same political domina- tion prevails as under the old methods and where the same type of men is selected to handle the reins, it makes little_difference what sort of a char ter or form of government a city is operated under. But apparently inspired by the re- sults which have been obtained by a cliy manager, the Kansas Jegislature has decided to extend such an idea 1o state government and the law which has been passed to that effect has re- ceived the approval of tho governor. Kansas thus indicates that it wants the commonwealth conducted upon the same sound and sensible basis that n corporation with as great in- terests at stake would be, and the fact that the legislature has approved of it indicates that those who have been profiting in the past from the public crib are prepared to make the sacri- fice which must go with the chang> and place thelr own interests second to those of the state. For that rea- son the experiment which Kansas is about to make will be watched with keen interest throughout the country. Kansas has signified its willing- ness to be the dog for the testing of such a plan. EDITORIAL NOTES. Winter wins in proving that it can come back, but it is a safe bet that it cannot stay. l There are fears now of a shortaze of tin in this country, but not the kind which makes the mare go. The man on the corner says: Man might pay more attention to his con- science if it were to blow a horn. From the way in which some of the militiamen are shooting themselves and their “comrades, they appear to be able to hit what they aim at. Regardless of the way Germany feel& about it, it cannot overlook the fact et 1t h SRy VRS et kept urging the United States into the war. ~ The worst thing about that Wash- ington story that General Wood is to be retained at his present post is that it is an incorreet raport and nat the truth. Taking the report of either side, it becomes quite evident that the war has been pretty much up in the air over on the other side for the past several day Germany cannot get much satisfac- tion out of the speech of the head of the new Russian government when he urges that nation to stick to the allles to the finish, Of-course everything strange in the shape of a vessel wiil henceforth be put down as a German raider, the same as every ripple on the water last summer was a shark. That one other American ship which Senator McCumber wanted sunic be- fore congress took action has been put under the waves bcfore Germany had a chance ta hear about the challenge.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Ignorant Farmers vs. Progressive. Mr. Editor: I chanced to hear seven farmers all residing on farms between my house and Voluntown telling their troubles a few mornings ago and the wail of woe sent up by them caused me to look back to those days 50 years ago when—according to a know-it-all —farmers were ignorant and followed the moon changes in planting. Each of the seven are descendants of those “ignorant” times. The first complaint was the enor- mous cost of grain. All agreed that it was somethins terrible. All are in debt for last month's zrain. All agreed that where the next lot was coming from was a great question. Turni back the clock of time to the 50 vears ago “ignorant” days I find that wh-re as the present farmers who of cou; must be wise, are all in debt, th ancestors of 50 vears ago planted by the moon and raised their own grain, never thinking of buying cven a b: The sccond howl was about the or of meat.

There is not one of those seven far- mers that owns his farm. In the “is- rorant” days 50 vears ago, those seven farms were all owned free of any in- cumbrances by “ignorant” farmers who planted, set hens and harvested even killed their meat by the moon.

Not onlv success in farminz of the “ig- norant” moon plantine da¥s has gone but the social spice of rural life has gone also. Fifty vears ago those far- mers living hetween her~ ard Volun- town who must have been “ignorant” as thev planted by the moon, used to hotd debating socleties and Ivceums. whera creat and small questions were bandled in as masterly a manner as thew are handled today in the senate chamber at Hartford.

T find as I pass alonz this wav that the word “iznorant” is always handled very freely by those who themselves arc very, verv “ismerant” By those who nurse grouches until no word ex- actly sounds mean enough to them but a word whose very meaning they are ignorant of themselves. It's easv to sav “when people were ‘ignorant’ 50 vears ago” and also “pro- gressive” todav, but the trulv pro- gressive are those who in taking up a line of argument present some sen- sible, truthful, progressive views who prove something new before thev tear down what aireadv exists, who do not let—Oh, Lord, what's the use?

April 11, 1917 HOME GARDENS Fertilize This is an appeal to public spirited citizens of Norwich to aid the home zardening movement by providing fer- tilizer for those who cannot afford to buy it. Fertilizer is the gardemer's graat problem this year. The prices of it are very high. It is out of the ques- tion even to think of potash, which is one of the necessary fertilizer .ele- ments, for the war has put its price! beyond reason—in fact, there is Iit- tie potash to be had at any price. But there is one commodity which exists in considerable quantities in every city, and that !s manure. best of all fertilizers. The ow «oal, ice and lumber companies, azfl of delivery concerns, who employ many horses and thus have much mianure to dispose of, usuaily sell It at a good price. The human food need is so great this vear, however, that quantities of this manure should go to those cuiti- vating back vard and vacant lot gar- dens. The man whocan provide free manure to gardeners who cannot af- ford to buy it, will be a real public benefactor. Another necessary iiem for the new gardener is lime. Purticulariy in va- cant lots in which the ground has not been stirred in vears, the soil is apt to be acid. If it is sour and acid soil which the novice gardener under- takes to cultivate. he will be disap- pointed with resuite. or‘unately the liming oll ix not an expensive A pound of lime o or <o in bulk quas of 1t will sround. Plants are like animals in that you must feed them if they are to thrive. There is a certain amount of plant food in soil, but additional plant fer- dlizer—put ‘into the ground will pro- duce greater crops. In this connection there nomical and an extra asing fertilizer, particularly manure. If you scatter manure broadeast over your garden before spading it, that is wasteful. The better way is to spade (ne manure only into the plant rows. The fertilizer between the rows is iargely wasted Every gardener shou'd know of the store of fertilizer which he can get y the expenditure of a littie effort. This fertilizer is called humus, and i consists of rotting vegetable, matter in Thys in spading up a garden all of the sod. dried grass and stalks of plants should be spaded in. This process not only restores to the soil he actual plant food which is in this vegetable matier, but it makes the soil more friable and easier for the plant roofs to penetrate it, and it does more—it actually acts as a_producer of nitrogen from the air. Nitrogen is one of the most valuabe and most expensive or fertilizer elements. In the rotting humus billions of raicroscopic bacteria—germs—come to Each tiny organism breathes of the air that filters down through the 501l and fives an infinitestmal amount of the air's nitrogen in its bodv in siich form that the plant root can feed upon it. of gzarden proposition. costs a penny ties, and a_pound sweeten 30 square foet @f is an eco- agant way THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society Corunna, the &panish seaport from which Ambassador Gerard took pass- age is the subject of the following war geography bulletin issued by the National Geographic Society: “This ¢ity 4s by no means the most important of Iberian coast towns, hough it_has a long and interesting history. Situated on a_tongue of land between the Bays of Ei Orzan and La Bahia at almost the extreme northwest ‘Ip of the Iberian Peninsula, Corunna is the chief city of the provimce of Galicla and the seat of its captain- general. “Galicia was once an independent ihe uniformly good Sunkist of | Spanish, which, however bareiy miss- ed pecoming the general tongue of tongues. 2 “Under the Roman emperors of Spanish extraction, Corunna flourished, and the Roman® additions to the an- cient pharos ed by the Phenicians, who founded the town, are stiil plain'y to be discern though many a ruler since has had hand in extending the strueture. At Corunma the Norsemen were repulsed in 843 by the hardy Gal- icians; but in the early part of the Eleventh Century the place fell before the Caliph of Cordova and passed in- to Morrish hands. With the Christian restoration, Corunna acknowiedged Castilian rule; and it was through the wife of Peter the Cruel, daughter of John of Gaunt, that the latter sought ig gecure’ the throne of Castile in X . ‘From Corunna Philip I set sail for Engiand to marry Mary; and a gen- eration later another expedition, less friendly, quit . the port for Englih water—the Invincible Armada, which met its fate at Drake’s hands. Drake rimself was at Corunna ten years afterward, with a fleet which took the town and burned it; and two other notable British naval victories have Corunpa_as their scen one In 1747, when a French fleet was defeated and the other in 1805, when the combined fleets of France and Spain were put out of action. Napotonic “In the course of the wars Corunna again came to notice, for it was on the neighboring heights «f Eivina that a bloody engagement took place between the French under Marshal Soult and the British unde- Sir John Moore, who was about to mbark his troops after a series of actions in which the Little Corporal himself took part. “In this battle Moore was killed, and his soldiers, unable to take his body aboard the waiting transports, buried him at night upon the ramparts which he had defended so successfully to the jast. This sad ceremony, done into verse by the Revd. Charles Wolfe, is known to many a schoolboy to whom the solemn lines have been a standard accessory for every ‘deciamation day.’ Like many towns of the Biscayan und Mediterranean coasts, Corunna consists of the Old Town and the New, the latter, as is usual, lving along the harbor—for the 1like the New Englanders, were fond of building on the heights. It is in the Old Town, within the precincts of the |Garden of San CaMos that Moore's jgrave is to be seen, surmounted by a stately monument erected by the Brit ish In 1814 and which bears an equai- Iy stately inscription in no less state- |1v Latin.

Its manufactures are small. the government tobacco factor- ies beinz of chief importance. em- ploying principally women, many of whom come from the surrounding country, in some cases traveling many miles on foot to their empioyment. |Steamship ines run thence to Cen- | England. the largest lines of export being catile, though some of the wines of the country are sent abroad where they rank with those of Portu- zal and the southern Spanish prov- ‘nces. “As a military center Corunna now nolds no importance. the ancient forts which once defended the harbor have heen dismantled, one of them, the iCastillo de ean Anton. picturesquely situated on a rocky island, serving as a military prison. OTHER VIEW POINTS \ Stopping an anriual waste of seven hundred million dollars of foodstuffs in American homes—the estimate of the Washington experts—is one way of offsetting shortage of production. |It may be said that the figures are based upon guesswork. But enough is known about American habits to make charge of wastefulness hold. Today is the best time for taking up the question of economy.
