Coal s & fubl is nDecessary and when there is @ stoppage of production it means the werking of harm, soomer or later, throngh the shortage that is bound to re- eult. The price of coal has been at the top notoh for a considerable period, and it Is mot surprising that there should be a popular demand for a decrease in the pries to the comsumer of this commodity quite the same as there is for reductions in ober lines. Boosted to & high figure begause of the war conditions the users of coal are naturally desirous of cheap- - coal. They stand in the way to get some bemefit through lowered fréight rates, but the peak of high wages, which the miners desire pushed even highes”is one_obstacle in the k. ent time there has bes he operators to meet the mder the eondiions which the nibtrs st forth, because there is an un. willingness to fix & wage for «oal min- g that would apply to all regions re- fardiess of conditions. —The miners have juggested a conference on the district plan but the miners are unwillipg to confer on such a basis becamse they would not get the advantage that they Woxld under the other method.

TIGHTING ADULTERATION. Onee again by ts annual report of the work dome in behalf of pure food pro- fucts and drugs are the people of this state reminded of the important service that is being rendered by the Connecti- sut agricultural experiment station. Those who -buy foods or drugs take what they are given with the supposition that they afe getting articles up to the standard, There are excellent possibil- Ities for those who cars to resort to such methods to adulterate and in past re- ports it Bas been shown that thers has besn much adulteration for which the wonsumer pald at the same rate ‘n all srobabllity, and of course expected the same results, as if they had been up to the standard. From the latest report of the experiment station it would appear| that the probability of detection through the ‘examinations made has dome 1much 1o @lscourage such a practice, both on the part of thoss who manufacture and those who sell, since the latter are not Slsposed to dea! with those whose goods) ire not up to requirements. The dairy and food department of the wate is responsible for much of the ma- ferial that is sent to the station for ex- amination. In the Insistence upon the maintenance of pure article samples are iaken whether suspicion rests thereon or Bot, By the report of the examiners it s ascertained what the people of Con. Becticut are getting for their money. In the matter of ice cream for the past year thers were 7 samples presented to Ihe station which were found to be below tandard, and In all but even instances the cream was made by the party sell- ing At. In the matter milk there were 78 cases of adulteration by using wa: ter,’30 by skimming and thers were 265 samgles “hat were below _standard in sther ways. With more than a third of all samples found adulterated or below standard §t can be appreciated what value is attached to the service that is Seing rendered by the cooperative ser- vice of the dalry and fdod department ind the experiment n.un‘\ * 1 BASEBALL IN ENGLAND. Opintons may vary even among ood Englishmen as to whether the game of Jaseball could ever become popular there, Thers are enthusiastic sports in that sountry guite the same as there are here ind even though thelr inciimations run ™ other directions because they have, bean developed that way, there's the Tcs- wibility that Baseball might in time so sppeal fo them that they would become s good fans as the people of this coun- wy. It is the opinion of Sir Arthur Coman Doyle, who rscently returned to Eng- land, that the English might easily be- some bastball enthusiasts. He gualifies Bis statemefit, however, with the asser- Hlon that it would have to be properly Introduced. That Is no more than ought 1o Do expected.

Rhode Island has come to the same concjusion that other states bave. is not a time to drive existing compan- fes to the wall and engourage other means of transportation which is not as satistactory and which neediessly adds to! the trafie of the streets. Improved ser- vice is to come from just such methods as are being employed in this state and which are now adopted in Rhode Island and with the unfalr competitors elimi- mated there will he reason in the insist- ence upon the improvement of the ser- vice just as fast 28 the trolley ljnes are able throngh the patronage provided to accomplish . THE OUTLAW RESOLUTION. When Samuel Gompers goes into & tail &pin because of the resolution adopted by the railroad Jabor and asserts that it is mpossible for the board to do any such| thing as outlaw ‘the raliroad shopmen's union, since that is a matter which rests entirely with the American Federation of Labor, he gets the impressisn that the board has done something far in excess of what it has never attempted. The railroad labor board has mot un- dertaken to tell the shopmen that they. are outlaws of the federation or that they must disband their union. Al that it has done 1s to point out the fact that inasmuch @s it has taken itseif outside of the emvlovment of the railroads it has gone beyond the furisdiction of the board, and having done as it has and s President Jewell says it hes, the zction of the board outlaws them only so far as the authority of the board is concern- ed. What the American Fedsration of La- bor does about the shopmen is another matter entirely, Mr. Gompers must Te- alize that what the shopmen: have done been to outlaw themselves. The t:rd was established by the government for the prevention of strikes, 1t is an agent of the government by Which nego- tiations between the railroads and the employes can be carried on after they have falled to' agres among themselves. Having carried through such negotiations and having had the shopmen refuse to abide by the Tesults they cannot be ex- pected to retain their rights hefore the board. They are mot obligated to mocept the decision and they have mét, but In striking they have left the employ of thé roads and that by the board's decis- fon denies them the rights they have heretofore had," and opens those same rights to those other shopmen who go to work for the raliroads, unleas the. strik- ers are reinstated by the acceptance of the board's decision. The board has terminated tts relations with the strikers but not the strikers’ relations with the tederation. l EDITORIAL NOTES. Baltimore continues to-bs a oity of many large and eostly fires.

Her maiden name 'was Dandridge and she was famijiarly called “Patsy.” by her many admirers. “Patsy” and George first met at the home of Major Chamn berlayne in Virginla in 1759. At the time she was a widow of 25 and most attractive jn appearance. The father of our country was always fond of the fadies, even from the days of hig hoysh lave for the famous “Low- jand Beauty.” Mrs.\ Custis is said to have Jooked especially charming on the morning of their introduction fn her favorite gown of white dimity, a clus- ter of May blossoms at her belt. and a litt’e white cap ‘half covering her soft waving brown hair. _ Of the love letiers Washington: wrote to his betrothed only one has come down to us: a manly, affectionate letter, show- ing the straightforward nature of the man: “We have begun our march to the Ohio. A courler is starting—for Will- iamsburg and I embrace the cpportuni- ty to send a few words to ome whose 1ife is inseparable from mine. Since that happy hour when we made our pledges 1o éach other, my thoughts have been continually goiag to you as to another self. That ali-powerful Providence may keep me in safety, is this prayer of “Your faithful ard ever affectionate triend, G. 'Washington.” The Washington-Custis wedding which took place on the 6th of Jamuary, 1759, was a brilliant one, full of sunshine, life and color. Life opened brihtly for the happy pair and their honeymoon did not end with the proverblal six months, but lasted. we may say, the forty yees of_their married life. When Wachington went to the Con- tinental Congress, udon being appointed commanded-in-chief he wrote to his wife in a epirit of earnest modesty and real tenderness: “My Dearest: T am now set down to write you on a subject that fills me with inexpressible concern and this con- cern is increased when I think the swhole army raised for the defense of the Amer- fcan_cause shall be put under my care, anfl that it js necessdy for me to proceed immediately to Boston to take upon me the command of it. “You may believe me, my dear Patsy, when I assure you in the most solemn manner, that so far from seeking the appointment, T have used every endeavor in my power to avoid it, not only from my unwillingness to part from you and the family, but from a consciousness of it being a trust too great for my ea- Dacity, and, that I should enjoy more real habpiness in one month with you at home, than I have the most pros- pect of finding abroad, if my stay was to be seven times seven years. I shall feel mo pain from the danger of the campaign; my unhappiness wal flow from the uneasiness I know you will feel from being left alone.” The following winter Mrs. Washington spent with her husband in camp at Cam- bridge, Mass., and his custom she con- tinued unti] the end of the war, spend- ing the summers at Mount Vernon. The six years that intervened between Wash- Ington’s retirement to Mount Verfon and his return to public life—his “furlough,” as he called them, were happy but not as quiet as he and his wife wished them. - Finally there came an end to Wash- sultry weather that adds to the joy of those who are spending a vacation camp- ing.

Mr. Editor: We East-Siders who re- céntly pétitioned the common council of Norwich to allow no more carnivals to show on the Battle Grounds wish to correct a statement in Tuésday’s Bulletin to the effect that we petitioned “that no more carnivals should be allowed to come to the city.” We made nd such petition, What we did ask was that they should not be allowed to comé to the Battle Grounds; first, hecause the Battle Grounds are o near our homes as to render the noise of the carnivals 2 muisance, especially late at night: and second, because we do not like the class of people which they bring to our neigh- ture. from the for it a home fr stomach, flatulence, cating, and bil fuss or bother, you ok ‘ompt sal anteed or money refunded.
