The political significance which some
people attached to the fact that the Pres
idential party was obliged to pay the
regular fare, while travelling on the rail-
road through Connecticut to attend the
Centennial celebration at Concord, loses
Its Importance upon explanation Of the
fact By order Of the Superior Court of
Connecticut, the New York, New Haven
& Hartford Railroad Co Is enjoined from
Transporting, without payment Of regu-
lar fare. the members of any legislative
body or the officers or servants Of any
state or Of the United States, or Of any
town, county or city Of the United States.
Those papers which recognized this
eoolness on the part Of Connecticut off,

that state towards the President, the

In the future. place less confidence IN
the old adage that "straEs tell which
way the wind blows" which they found
50 useful in explaining how this simple
incident proved that Connecticut would
give democratic majority at the next
election 1t we'll illustrates how party
newspapers in this country will seize
any circumstance, however trivial, which
BY any possibility could be distorted in
to an indication Of political feeling. and

Snow MUCH WAS ne WORTHY

There is terrible significance in the
questions we sometimes ask upon the
death eff a wealthy man. if we only un-
derstoOd the real significance of the
questions. "How much was he worth ?"
we ask. And the angels might reply I:
Worth? He wasn't worth anything.
His money is worth something. His
body is worth something. as source Of
fertility to the soil. But he wasn't worth
anything"
So we vary the question: "YeS but
how much did he leave ?" .-oh. leave. "
it might be answered "Yes. | viii tell

and as naked and destitute did be 90

But his neighbor has died; q man
who was not known on Change nor in

be has left nothing; but be has taken
