WHAT NEXT?

What will be the next move II the
locaI-option gambling bill becomes a
law? Will this legislature or some 9TH
err pass law making stealing depend
ent upon local option? And will finally
the whole criminal law of the State be
connected with local option? If the
principle is good and safe in relation to
gambling why not in relation to other
crimes? And is it true that there is
such a passion for gambling in Connect
icut that It is wise for the Legislature
to yield to the urging element" and
allow any community that wants to
gamble to do it2 If it Is Connecticut is
in a very bad way. The law Of the
state is and has been against gam
bling. Must that law be modified now
so that gambling will be legal in GER
tain places on certain days? Has Con-
necticut degenerated so that a Senate
that votes for local-option gambling
correctly represents the sentiment of
the State? Or is it a local-option SEN
ate, which occasionally gives way to the
urging element ?"

season was over it became evident
that he had succeeded in reducing to
quite an appreclable extent the per-
eentage of deaths among children whose
chief food Is milk. He sold milk steri-
lized and prepared for infant nutriment
at one cent a 'bottle. and pure fresh
milk at four cents a quart. In parks
and public places he had booths for
the sale of pure milk at cent a glass,
and here, too, ster,ildzed milk was dis
pensed as a beverage, for the purpose
of educating into its use people who
had the idea that 1t was q medicated
compound. Mr.. Straus found last year
that his sterilizing plant, though of
liberal amplitude, was quite insufficient
to meet the demands made upon 1t. How
thorough have been his preparations
for this seasons wants may be in
ferred from the fact that he is quite
confident OF his ability to supply every
sick baby In New York with all the
sterilized milk it can consume. AS
children under Ave years Of age have
been wont to contribute 700 out of
every thousand deaths in New York

he task he has undertaken may be read

Many Of the people of the South arr
on the right side of the silver question
| and they will be strengthened in theii
position by an address which has beer
sent out by more than fifty of the larg-
est firms in New York which have bust
ness relations with the south and are
concerned in its prosperity. In this
address 1t is pointed out that a rise
in the value of the numerous products,
accompanied by an increased demand
for labor in manufacturing districts
and for money in financial centers,
foreshadow gra dual return to the new
era Of prosperity, unless confidence
should again become impaired by agita-
ton for the free coinage Of silver And
the address continues: The south has
every interest to adhere to the money
standard of the world. 1t cannot ex-
pect to be paid in 1t for its cotton If
friends Of silver succeed in legalizing
the payment of debts in a depreciating
metal Your advantage lies In the ex-
change Of your products for money
which, like gold, have a stable value.
We therefore urge you and your friends
to use your influence in opposition to
the dangerous doctrine of free silver
coinage.
This address, which will be sent
broadcast among the merchants, plant
ers and business. men generally in the
South, is signed by such influential
firms as Inman, Swan & Co., Latham,
Alexander & Co., and others engaged
in cotton handling and banking, and
by large dealers in mill products, dry
goods jobbers and others whose trade
with the South amounts to many mil

The Massachusetts legislature has got
tired at last Of passing Cape Cod Canal
bills, and having them amount to moth
ing, so 1t has attached an amendment
to the latest bill which provides that
the company undertaking the enterprise
shall first deposit with the State treas
urer the sum of $15OOOO, which shall be
forfeited unless the work is begun with
in one year and completed within five
years from the time the charter is
granted. This seems to mean business,
Several times the legislature has passed
bills chartering companies to build the
projected canal. but in each case the
parties back of the movement have
been more interested in forming canal
company and controlling charter rights
than they have in actually building the
canal. Shares and bonds have been
sold by the incorporators with profit to
themselves, but no canal has yet mate
rallied. In fact, serious doubts have
been entertained by some Of the lead
ing protectors of the enterprise whether
after all it would be possible to build
and maintain canal as planned at the
Bass River location. Now, however,
there is likely to be an honest attempt
made very soon to carry the plans into
execution, or else there will be speedy
and probably finally abandonment of
the whole scheme. The legislature has
certainly put an effective check upon
the paper canals which have been float
ing about in Massachusetts, for so many
years, and it has adopted method that
will show whether there is any practi-
cal value in the project.
