It was a move in be- half of liberty and justice that changed the whole course of cvents! in this country and started it on its way to the great nation that it is to- day. There have been momentous strus- | gles since that time in upholding the principles that were set forth in that zreat document and once again the| nation’s birthday will be observed with the country at peace and cele brating the victorious outcome of one the world's greatest struggles against tyranny. We have been proud to boast fo many vears of our Americanism bu we cannot fail to realize, the re-| sult of developments that have taken | place in this country that there never; was a time when there was greater| need of devoting our best efforts to the strengthening of the same. We have seen what forces have been and are at work trying to break it down. This very thing was feared following the Revolutionary war. and Abraham Lin- coln when a young man way back in 1837 gave this excellent advice ‘Reason—cold, calculating, unimpas- sioned reason—must furnish all the materials for our future support and defense. Let those materials be molded into general intelligence, sound morality and in particular. reverence for the Constitution and aws Upon these let the proud fabric of freedom rest as the rock of asis: and truly has been said of the only greafcr institution the gates of hell shal' not pravafl against it " Americanism w. today. almost a likewise of the | as as s needad then znd entury since, it i greatest importance.

FEach su should find entrenched the that g g Americanism is it aiversary more firmiy NOT A CHANCE. a little attention has to the question of unskilied this country and particula =0 since this country went into war. Just now there are many thousands who have been getting the benefit of American industrial activ ity who are headed for Europe and carrying with them large sized bank have been accumulated un- der favorable conditions in this country. The departure of such peo- ple is unquestionably overcoming the larze amount of unemployment that ed following the return and de- mobilization of the troons. The re- adjustment and the entering upon peace work would have taken care of though it might have required a longer without this large move- ment of aliens eastward But there are fears that there is going to be a shortage of labor in the| country only a been 1a- | Not riven bor in even as there was a surplus| short time ago. This is evi- denced by the plea madeé in connec- tion with the housing problem throughout the country that the build- ers and producers of building material of lowering the cost can see no way of materials or of interesting capital more freely in such undertakings un- less they get the benefit of cheap Chi- nese and Japanese labor. 2 Such suggestions have been heard before and it is of course recognmized | that there would be plenty of such! labor at hand very quickly if con-} gress should take down the bars now erected against it. Such labor is un- questionably low priced and quick to| learn. The danger of it has long| been recognized, but regardiess of the appeal that has been made and the situation that exists there is every reason to believe that advantage will not be taken of such a chance. Con- Eress and the country are opposed to it and the problem will have to be' solved in some other way. RIGHT STAND ON LYNZHINGS. | Quite in contrast with the action of the governor of Mississippi in declar- | ing that bes could take no action t prevent the Iynching of a Negro, when warning was given to him that sush| 2 movement was underway, is th= ac-| tion that has been taken by the gov-: ernor of the neighboring state of Ala- bama. In the latter state the lvnch- ing of a farmer last montn was not prevented and it does not appear that there was opportunity for the gov- ernor to accomplish such a thing, but| in view of the fact that such an un- | warranted crime was committed the governor immedistely ordered an in- vestigation of the circumstances sur- rounding the shcotmg of a farmer while under srrest in jail for Ikilling another farmer following a dispute over a mule. The jailer was overpow- | ered and armed men shot the accused in his cell while awaiting trial il o i bl | iong fan | Independence da: And the investigation ddes not ap- pear to have been a camouflage affair for nine men charged with participat- ing in the murder have been placed under arrest and it is expected that others will be added to the number. ‘What the outcome will be no one can tell, but it is made piain nevertheless that there is no disposition on the part of the governor of Alabama to wink at such crime. In that attitude it is to be presumed that he represents the best sentiment of the state. Such has been said to be the feeling of the public in other states where such crime has long been resorted to. and in rec- ord breaking numbers, bat it is noted that no very determined move is made to check”it. It is the attitude taken by the Alabama governor, backed up by the law abiding people of the state that will put’ 2u end to mob violence.) COUNTY ROAD IMPROVEMENTS. To, southeastern Connecticut noth- ing more important in the way of steps taken for highway improve- ment has been done, since the com- pletion of the military highway be- tween this city and the submarine base, than the letting of the contract for the macadamizing of the road leading diagonally across New London county through the towns of Preston, Ledyard and North Stoniagton. This road will be over nine miles iz length and will fill' in the gap now existing in the highway between this city West- erly and Watch Hill, and <will be built this summer. Highway Commissioner Bennett is ito be congratulated upon his decision to put this stretch of road in condi- tion to take care of the travel that will be accommodated thereby. It has been in a deplorable condition. It is a part of the foute leading from Hartford ghrough Norwich to the ishore in this end of the state to say nothing of the help it will be to the extensive farming lands in the towns through which it passes: It has been so long coming, how- ever, that there cannot help being a general rejoicing on the part of those who have waited so' exnectantly for action to be taken, but vata this provement undertaken there are rea- sons to hope that similar attention will be ziven to the stretch of road running south of Colchester to Boz- rahville which is on the direct road between Norwich and Hartford. The improvement of the section of five to many milec air line from the capital to the southeastern cormer of the state by connecting up as it would the excel- ent road to Colchester from Hartford via Marlboro and the improved road south from Bozrahville to this | Such would of course give this end of | the state only what it has so long de- d and what it has so patientiy awaited.

With a de- termination to succeed she applied nerseif thoroughly to whatever she undertook, whether it was in the early days as a country school teacher or later as a preacher and a champion of the cause of women. It was not long before it was evident that she had a mission outside the backwoods of Michigan and whether in the Chri tian ministry, as a doctor of medicine tor which che received her first doc- t degree. or as a teacher in the broad school room of the world she | made a mark that will not readily be! effaced. She was a woman of foresight and optimism. She possessed a keen sense of humor, as was plainly dis- closed to any who were favored with an opportunity of hearing her speak, and she was persistent and aggressive in the face of discouragement. was an early champion of the policies of Susan B.

The man on the corner says: The farther we get from the first of July the thirstier the crowd looks. If as reported the Montenegrins ars fighting the Serbs, it is the character- istic outcome of all wars in the Bai- kans. From the stir that is being made in Washington it looks.like a deter- mined fight to put an end to even the 275 per cent. beer. The judges of a baby awarded a prize to each ent probably presided over such contesis before and knew what to avoid. Now that the postage has gotten iback to two cents, it will be time for the advocates of one cent postage for first class matter to get busy again. /ith Bethmann-Hollwes asking a trial in place of the former kaiser in the expectation of being acquitted, he has the confidence of a Jack | Dempsey. It is hard to tell just now whether it is the “medicinal” supply or the 2.7 per cent. that is being supplied that is keeping up the business of the po- lice courts. While it has been found that no little dishonesty has been used in fil- ing income returns, it is likewise dis. closed that many honest mistakes have been made. How the number of automobiles has increased is well disclosed by the fact that the motor vehicle commis- sioner has taken in more morey ‘in registration and other ff@es in the past nine months than he did in the tweive months preceding that period. x miles would bring these two cities| rearer and furnish almost | city. | She | he | bringing about | Her last years were as ac- | and | NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776 o course of human events, it becomes for one people to dissolve the po- litial bands which have comnected them with waowner, nad to assume, among the_ powers of the carth, the separate -and equal station to which the laws of nature and of natures God entitle them, a decent respeci to the opinions . of mankind re- quires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
