% o T PR to the Poles the sum of 30,000,000 gold roubles. The soviets haven't kept this agreement. There is some question as to whether it is able to do so but that doesn’'t appear to be the ground taken up to the present time at least. Soviet Russia in fact indicates that even though it has the money it will not turn it over to Poland until the Poles drive out that anti bolshevik leader, General Savinkoff. = » The attitudes taken by both countries Sutecription price 12¢ x week; ic & menth; $5.09 3 rear, Entered of the Postoffics ot Normi-h, Comn, se [ Will fight. roond-clas matier.

The government at Moscow has been reminded of the fact it entered into a trealy arrange- ith Pofand by thd terms of which imong other thincs there was to be paid Poland is smuch exercised over the fact that soviet Russia has not kept its promise in this respect. Treaty terms are made with the expectation that they Wwill be kept. But the failure to keep treaty promises .doesn’t appear to be the only instance where the soviet gov- ernment has fallen by the wayside and Poland isn’t the only country that is complaining since it was only recentls that British statements were to the ef- fect that Poland was not keeping its trade agreements. Conditions in Russia are they were a few years ago. increase not whnt Indications that the soviet government is steadily slipping and the question must turally arise as to whether such an alternative as Poland threatens would ser¥e to hasten the break or help-to rally the many factions to the defense of Russia Poland might collect through the use of force but it shonld well con- sider whether it -is advisable at this time, and whether such a plan is best. USING THE VOTING MACHINES. There ars less than 300 who have been made voters in Norwich this month which gives them the right to participate Monday. in the town election next Unfortunately there were those to tho number of 45 who desired to be made but who had failed to take the necessary preliminery steps. It is probable that a large number of the newly made voters are not ac- quainted with the voting machines, be- cause inasmuch as they had not had occasion te use them they had not fa- miliarized themselves with them. For th benefit jt has been arranged to have a demonstration of the machine In the corridor of the city hall three af- ternoons nd evenings this week, com- men g today, for the purpose of in- structing any who may desire.

Even her dear father, with his broken leg, and broken spirit as well, was one of her greatest trials. Each day she resolved afresh that circumstances should never conquer her as they had conquered him. Today she had réad to him until he had fallen asleep—his kindly face now revealing the worry and discouragement that he sought so valiantly to hide while awake. The cosy little place, just outside the vilage, was a typical New England horffe. Faithful care had made it really attract- tve. But now there was danger of their losing it, for with her father's decident had come the added shock to Hope that the property was mortgaged for more than half its value. The holder of the mortgage, Lucius Calious, was a man who put no Value on Sam Warren's im- provements, at least not in his talk with Sam. Hope sat with her bare arms on the plazza -rail, gazing appreciatively over the beautiful patch-work of plowed gar- dens and green fields spread like a coun- terpane across the valley. Ludius Calious had said there was no sense in wasting the front dooryard with flower beds, so her father had sadly consented to have it planted with beans and the hateful leaves were even now poking their yellow-green crooks of stem up throngh the warm brown earth. But Hope had inherited some. of her mother's spirit—the brave little mother who had broken because she refused to bend before adversit 8o, when the front-yard controversy had ended she had snatched a hoe, 2 rake, and her tiny pansy plants, and had marched li a crusader of old, down the path and across the road to the trangular heather-piece where the valley toad intersected the main highway. There she had loosened the earth, taken out all the stones and grass roots, raked the surface smooth and set out her sturdy seedlings in symmet- rical rows. She cculd see them now, nod- ding tp each other like little ladies, no doubt dreaming of the finery they soon wonld be wearing. . A rattle of wheels attracted her at- tention, and a light buggy drawn by a blg sorrel horse came up the ley road. The driver was Ca!

Hot words rushed through Hope's mind —awords with which she hoped to sear the very soul of Lucius Callous, but suddenly her father's tired, patient voice recalled her. She rose from the ground and whlking toward the house a brave smile, not at all forced, came to her lips. “Never mind, daddy—I was pretty cross at first; but I have thought just what T'll do. I won't give Lush Callous the rating he deserves. But just watch me; I'll say it with flowers!” Into the house she dashed, and brought out a wooden box of earth with hundreds of little green plants. It was all she could carry, and she wasted no breath in words. Once more beside her Dan!'y Plot, ehe began to separate rthe slender stalks with loving, patient fingers. These were to have formed the border if her dooryard flower bed had not been forbidden. She smiled as she set them at regular intervals along the cruel wheel tracks, jreswing Jthe warm earth around the tiny roots, and whimsically telling them to hurry and grow fast for her. An impish thought struck her as she set the last plant. “I guess I'll fool dad too, just for good measur: So she ran back up the walk with the box in her hand and said care- “Some other plants that I'd plan- ned to use another way You don't think the qld Tartar will do that trick again, do you? I know I'm too uppish to suit him; he’s trying to humble me, that's all.” But her father's eyes were taking in her glowing young beauty with a new realization and/a new seriousness. “Hope, girl, you've growed like a weed this year. Heavens, how I wish I could get to work and help ye g0 to the college where ve want so to be!” “Now, daddy!” Hope was all contrition, as always when her father's courage flagged. She stooped and stroked his hair gently. “Now, daddy vou know it won't hurt me or my pl to teach for a year, first. And if. I can’t manage it by then Tl teach two vears, or three. I wont have you fretting when your leg is knit- | ting so well. Why, it won’t be any time now before you can be at work n, and then I just want to be around tell Lucius Callous to keep his nose at home and let us plan our own crops, too!” The raing fell—soft, pattery rans. and the sun shone, not fiercel to shriv el the young plantlets, but just right to make them reach for heaven through the long white days and nestle sleepil; in the dew at night.

During Mr. Cleveland’s first admin- istration he received comvaratively few threatening letters, but during his sec. ond term so many were received that Mrs. Cleveland became alarmed and prevailed upon her hushand to augment the force of secret sservice men. The result was that in 1895 the corps of guards at the White House was in- creased to twenty:seven, where before there had been -only three or four.

This sum is exclusive of the amounts spent for the reconstruction of public bujld- ings destroyed. In view of the grave condition of the public finances and of the present high cost of materials, the Govern- ment considers jt the part of pru- dence to limit the budget system re- quests for the continuation of the re- construction work to a sum estimated necessary for the building to be ac- complished in one year. About one-fifth of this sum will be used for the building of barracks and cottages to rehouse the populations made homeless by earthquakes. Five mijllion dollars is considered necessary for the construction of these dwellings and the sum of $17,520,000 is the esti= mation for the continuation of other works of reconstruction.—San Fran- cisco Chronicle.
