New Haven's opposition to the Water bury court house bill is simply case of chronic jealousy. The claim that the county finances are at low ebb and that it would be better to postpone the matter is moonshine. Waterbury is not pleading with New Haven for favor. Justice is de- handed, that is all.

The House Atmosphere.

Washington Letter in New York Press.
For years l have listened to TRADES on
the foul atmosphere of the House. Some
say it is due to the faulty ventilation of
the kitchen; others charge it up to the
lumber rooms under the terraces. Ii
seems to me that the odor of cheap CAPT
toll cigars prevails over everything. I am
surprised that the rules against smoking
are not enforced. Yesterday. for instance,
the air was heavy with the smell of two
fors," sold in the capitol restaurant at
Is cents each Men with axes to grind go
around with pockets stuffed full of vile
weeds. with which they hope, and try to
get the good will of members. The result
is bad atmosphere when these things are
lighted There is no smoke in the Senate
and the air is fit to breathe. How differ
ent the Senate is from the House! The
latter, at the close of day, resembles the
New York stock exchange. The floor is
Uttered with all sorts of trash, bits of pa
per. cigar stumps, etc. In the Senate there
is order and neatness; no smoke no trash
and rubbish. In the House men laugh,
hum, beat tatoos, chat and gossip in the
course of debate. Nobody appears to care
what anybody else is doing. The COM
mittee chairmen look after legislation,
their followers failing along like sheep
after the bell wether. A few old stagers
let nothing escape them, but most of the
young men knock about. having a good
time. l notice. too. that few of the old
members smoke. If they do, they retire
to one of the cloak rooms.

In part Rev. DR.. Levy said: THE print

of progress. We are so accustomed to it's
products that we accept it like many
other wonders of the world. Almost the
first thought of the workingman is for
his newspaper, without which he feels
lost 1t is as necessary for his prepara-
ton for the days work as his breakfast
The daily paper is considered the most
important product of the printing press
1t is tremndous distance from the prim-

berg to the great cylindrical Hoe press
of to-day, but the greatest achievements
have taken place In the past twenty
years, so much so that as we stand in the

Perhaps Senator Hin was a bit hasty

This Is characteristic of true heroes. Often

he makes between what is "gamey" and
what is spoiled should not expose him
