NERMoNr's WAR CLAIM-On the first
day of April, 1870, the balance of war
claim of this State against the general
government which had been disallOWed
and suspended was, according to the
report Of the Auditor of Accounts,
$1O8. 82t.17. Of this sum about $32,
900 was for extra State pay, ($7 per
month"; which had enormously been
presented to the government, and which
cannot be reimbursed under the present
law; $4,000 was for equipments and
horses furnished by Governor Fairbanks
to commissioned officers, which cannot
and should not be reimbursed the State.
Since April I, 1870, Mr.. Ferrin, the
State Auditor of Accounts, has presented
supplementary installment of indebted
ness against the government amounting
to $4,000. of the whole claim
amounting to 1927, 921.17, some
thing more than $50, ZOO has been al
lowed during the past winter, Mr.. Fer
rim having been in Washington and pre-
sented the claim ut the departments in
person. Excluding the $4S, 900, which
was enormously presented for State pay,
and for officers equipments, and about
$4,000, which the State has already re-
ccivcd for the soldiers barracks at St
Adams, and other places, the total
amount unadiusted at Washington at the
present time is $26,821.11, no part of
which can be allowed under the present
rulings of the departments and the pre-
sent law. This balance IS very much
less than that of any other State in the
Union against the government, and this
fact is due to the earnest and persistent
efforts of Mr.. Ferrin, who has made this
claim a subject of his especial care, and
has pressed ii with great judgment and
vigor. Mr.. Ferrin has been greatly as
sisted in this matter by Maj. Fl. b.
Bradley of Woodstock, whose expert
ence in matters of this kind and personal
knowledge of the history of the accounts
has been of great benefit to him

:. r. IL. Morse.

The telegraph brings us the intelli-
gence which has been for several days
anticipated, that the great electrician,
Prof Morse, is dead. He has made his
name famous throughout the world as
having given to us the greatest invention
of modern times, which has made all
nations neighbors and thereby promoted
social international friendship. The fol-
lowing sketch of his life will be read
with interest
Samuel Fenley Breese Morse, LII. D.,
one of the inventors of the Electric
Telegraph, was born in Charlestown,
Mass, April 20, 1871. He was the son
of Rev. Jedidoah Morse, the distinguish
ed geographical writer. He graduated
at Yale College in 1910. He went to
England with Washington Allston, arri-
wing in 1911. He studied painting I'M
der Benjamin West, and exhibited
painting entitled Dying Hercules" at
the Royal Academy in 1918, and in May
of that year received prize of gold
medal from the London Adelphi, for
plaster model of the same picture. He
returned to this country in 1916 and
painted portraits in New Hampshire at
fifteen dollars piece. He took up his
residence in New York city in 1923, and
painted a full lengsA portrait of Lafay-
cite. In 1929 he edited the poems of L.
NJ. Davidson with biographical sketch.
h went to England again in 1929 re-
naming until 1882, and on his return
home the first idea of a permanent re-
cording telegraph was suggested to him
by Dr.. Jackson, his fellow traveller. In
1S35hs demonstrated the practicability
Of hl' invention by model and filed his |
caveat at the patent Office, 1887, perfect
ing his invention in 1910, completing the
first telegraph in the United States-be-
tween Baltimore and Washington in 1874.
A. Convention held in 1851 for the |
purpose of adopting uniform system of |
telegraphing for all Germany, that of
Morse was selected. Professor Wheat
stone, the English inventor, took out
with W. F, Cooke, joint patent for a
telegraph in 1887. The repre-
sentatives of the principal European
powers, assembled at Paris in 1887 and
made gift of the sum of 400, 900 francs
as a recompense for his invention. Ina
letter of Mr.. Morse to the Secretary of
the United States Treasury, dated
August 10, 1913, occurs the first sugges-
ton of the Atlantic telegraph. Honors
have been showered upon him by Euro
pean sovereigns and by scientific and
literary societies. He resided on the
banks of the Hudson, near Poughkeep-
tic, His publications were "Foreign
against the United States"
published in 1885, and a biographical
sketch of Lewis Clausing, printed in
1886 I

Connecticut.

Connecticut responds to New Hamp-
shire in an endorsement of Gen. Grant,
in the election of Governor Jewell by
the people. The battle was fought amid
difficulties, which is all the more honor
TO the gallant Republicans of that State.
The canvass was thorough and the con-
test earnest. The ultra-temperanCe men
have polled more votes than was thought
probable, while the Labor Reformers
have presented a stronger front than was
anticipated The Democrats constructed
their platform ana selected their standard
bearers with the hope of making diyi-
sion in the Republican party. The De
mocracy hoped to carry the State with
view of influencing the action of the
National Convention at Philadelphia.
They have mistaken their aim, for righr
manfully have the Republicans stood by
their party organization, and the policy
which saved the nation in war and leads
her to prosperity IN peace.

THg Town SYSTEM. The question
whether a town can legally rescind a
vote to adopt the town system of schools.
has been passed upon by the Supreme
Court. The town of Corinth, in Orange
county, at its annual meeting in 1871.
adopted the town system. At a subse-
quent town meeting, a vote was taken
to rescind the former vote The case
was taken to the Supreme Court, and
was tried at the last term in Orange
county. The court decides that there is
no alternative, that the first vote could
not be rescmded; that C'orinth has adj
opted the town system, and that the
school directors elected in 1871 are in
power, and cannot be elected. save by
act of the Legislature. The vote to re-
scind amounted to nothing but trouble
to the town, as only about half of the
schools in town have been held under
such legal sanction that they can draw
any of the school money. The decision
of the court is, of course, the only one
that could have been anticipated. If it
had decided that board of school
directors legally elected could be turned
out by a subsequent vote, the same
thing could, of course, be done with

THE SIGNAL SERVICE. -Thc question
ton as to the continuance of the Sig
nal Service branch Of the War Depart
ment, and also the present arrangement
between the Government departments
and the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, is one exciting much interest just
now. The President of the Western
Union Telegraph Company has notified
the Government that he will not, after
the present agreement is at an end, which
will occur In about a month, make any
new arrangement at the same rates. 1t
appears that the present rates, paid by
the Government for telegraphing, are
about 40 per cent. lower than those paid
for commercial messages by individuals.
The sentiment of the country, as under
stood by the appropriation committee, is
in favor of continuing the weather re-
ports, but that committee seem ayerse to
increasing the rates of messages fourfold,

selectmen, or any other town officers,
and there could be no permanence or
stability to any town Office. The case
has interest in this vicinity, from the
fact that the town of Essex took some
what similar action, which, however,
was very wisely not persisted in. We
trust and expect that many towns will
in years to come adopt the town system,
and once fairly inaugurated there will
be no desire to change. Free Press
