the Waterbury American makes suggestion
which seems in the main reasonable, and which
we should think ought to harmonic all the con-
fiicting interests. His proposal is that the col
lege should go TO New Haven, and, in return,
that city should agree that Hartford shall hence
forth be the sole capital of the state. New Ha-
ven should also contribute something toward
the expense of the removal. The respective
gains and losses by this arrangement are
summed up as follows:
''Let us assume now S550,000 as the price of
the site proposed to be sold in Hartford and let
us suppose that for that sum satisfactory size
and buildings can be obtained in New Haven.
Then suppose New Haven contributes that
sum, How will the account stand2 Hartford
Gains s550, goo. which goes for the benefit of
the whole state. Hartford gains the adj
vantage of being the sole c9pital. She
loses the college. New Haven gains the col
Iege; she saves S5O9,00O or so which she other
wise must very soon, as matter OF pride or
policy, pay to build another state house. She
loses the glory of being half capital of the state
and pays S550,000, all of which, however, is
Immediately returned and expended within her
own borders on public institution worth its
cost"
Only by some such compromise apparently
can Connecticut escape the expense aud incon-
venience of maintaining the luxury of double
capital. But that is her own affair, in which
the people of other states have little concern.
Many besides citizens of Connecticut, however,
are interested in the success of movement
which gives prospect of adding largely to the
dignity and influence of the university at New
Haven

SATURDAY. MARCH 8, 1912,
Renor, Leave 10 Withdraw.


We notice that several institutions in this
state, including Amherst college, are asking and
uraing the legislature to vote them grants of
money from the treasury, in sums ranging from
SD 600 TO $1,000 There are at least two peti-
tions for grants of $4,000 each. We have not
q word 10 say against any of these institutions.
For some of them we have great respect; but
members of the legislature will do well TO ask
themselves, very seriously, whether the treasury
can Just now afford to be subjected to these ques-
tionabe demands upon it. The towns and cities,
as well as the state, have already large amount
of indebtedness TO provide for, and our finances
need to be managed with as much care and
economy as sensible men usually bestow upon
their private business.
We hope the legislature will see the impor-
lance Of abstaining rigidly from all appropria-
tions of this character. The argument in favor
of Them appears to be substantially as follows:
eve want the money; such grants have been
made heretofore; therefore the legislature should
now grant what we ask" And, if the grants
should be made, a score of similar cases will be
presented to the next legislature, supported by
this plea: ''rhe last legislature gave money free
ly 10 such and such institutions; therefore you
must give us what we want" Let us put stop
TO this drain upon the treasury, which can not
well be afforded. If the institutions in question
want money and think they must have it, let
them contrive 10 get it from some other source,
and not assume so easily that the state treasury
must stand open to every call of this kind.
When the commonwealth shall have paid its
debts, and reported handsome surplus in the
treasury, it will be early enough to consider seri-
ously whether we can wisely give away large
sums of money to satisfy such demands

TACT AND TALENT.-Talent is something
but tact is everything. Talent is serious, SOBER
grave and respectable; tact is all that and more
too 1t is no. a sixth sense, but it is tie life of
all the five. 1t is the open eye, the quick ear,
the iud ing taste, the keen SMELL and the lively
touch; it is the interpreter of all riddles, the
surmounter of all difficulties the remover of all
obstacles. II is useful in all places and at all
times: it is useful in solitude for it shows
man his way into the world. Talent is pow
er, tact is skill; talent is weight, tact is mOmen-
tum; talent knows what to do, tact knows how
to do II; talent makes a man respectable tact
will make him respected; talent is wealth. tact
is ready money. For all the practical purposes
OF life tact carries it against talent ten to one.
Take them to the bar together and let them
shake their learned curlS at each other in legal
rivalry; talent sees its way clearly, but tact is
soonest at its journeys end Talent has many
compliment from the bench, but tact touches
fees from attorneys and clients. Talent speaks
learnedly and logically, fact triumphantly.
Talent makes the world wonder that it
gets on faster, tact eXcltes astonishment
that it gets on so fast. And the
secret is, that it has no weight to carry; it
makes no false step, it loses no time; it takes all
hints; and by keeping its eve on the weather.

that blows. Take them into the church. Talent
has always something worth hearing, tact is
sure of abundance Of hearers; talent may Oh
tain a living, tact will make one; talent gets a
good name, tact great one; talent convnces,
tact converts; talent is an honor to the profess
sion, tact gains honor from the profession Place

house, but tact wins its heart aud its votes. 1t

silence and glibness of movement, as billiard
ball insinuates itself into The pocket. 1t seems
TO know everything without learning anything;
it has no left hand, no deaf car, no blind side
Il puts on no looks of wondrous wisdom, it has
no air of prolundity, but plays with the details

The FUR TRADE.-Since the acquisition of
Alaska, San Franchises fur trade has assumed
large proportions, and is growing larger every
year. Last year the importation of raw furs
into thar city was 100000. The most of these
were, soon after their arrival, exported. One
steamer-the Alexander-alone brought sixty
two thousand seal skins, worth about $780, 900.
Seal skins are as yet the principal importation
from that territory. Previous to the purchase
of Alaska the citF had scarcely any trade IN
turs, all that were obtained in that territory be-
inc sent from Sitka, by way of Siberia, to Eu-
rope. Now, however, the tables have so turned
that hot only is it made the emporium of all
the furs of Alaska, but it is being rapidly made
that OF the lurs of Siberia as well. The distance
by sea and land iloru that country to the mar
kets OF the eastern states aud of Europe, is
passed over in a much shorter time by this
route than by any other. The Siberian furs are
said TO be much finer than any yet brought
from the territory of Alaska The PRINCIPAL
kinds introduced into our market for local con.
sumption, and for export, are sabes, ermines,
loX, sea otter, land otter, mink, beaver, &c
The sable skin product has much declined, and
is declining every year,

KEEP THE GATE SHUT.-An English farmer
was one day at work in his fields, when he saw
party of huntSmen riding about his farm
He had one field that he was specially anxious
they should not ride over as the crop was in a
condition to be badly injured by the tramp of
horses. SO he dispatched one of his wOrkmen
to this field, telling him to shut the gate and
then keep watch over it, and on no account
suffer it to he opened. The boy went as he was
hidden; but was scarcely at his post before the
hunters came up, peremptory ordering the
gate to be opened. This the boy declined TO do,
stating the orders he had received, and his de-
termination not 10 disobey them. Threats and
brides were offered, alike in vain one after an
other came forward as spokesman, but all with
the same result; the boy remained immovab!e
in his determination not to open the
gate. After while one oG noble presence
advanced, and said in commanding tones:
My boy, do you know me? | am the
duke OF Wellington, one not accustomed to be
disobeyed; and command you to open that
gate, that and my friends may pass through.
The boy lifted his cap, and stood uncovered be-
fore the man whom all England delighted to
honor, then answered firmly: | am sure tha
duke OF Wellington would not wish me to dis
obey orders. l must keep rhis gate shut, nor
suffer any one 10 pass but with my masters ex-
press permission. Greatly pleased, the sturdy
old warrior lifted his own bar, and said:
honor the man Or boy who can be neither bribed
nor frightened into doing wrong With an
army of such soldiers could conquer not only
the French but the world And handing the
boy ghttering sovereign, the old duke put
spurs TO his horse and galloped away while the
boy ran off to his work, shouting al the top of
his voice: Hurrah, hurrahl I've done what
