The intimation given in the Presidents
veto of the river and harbor bill that
congressman and the people generally
were drifting to a point where they only
looked upon the government fayorably to
the extent that they can draw from II
finds Il verihcation IN a plea made by
Representative Hepburn. OF Iowa, who
pleaded for the building Of a torpedo boat
in his district. He stated that as the
Missouri was the only river in his dis
trlct he had not been able to get in" on
the river and harbor bill. None Of his
constituents had war claims in the bunch
recently appropriated for, and none Of
them came in under the French spolia-
ton claims. and that unless he got the
torpedo boat the government would have
failed TO do anything for his district.

AN EARLY CAUCUS.

Now that the Aldermen and Council
members are elected for another TWO
years they should hold an early caucus
end nominate the city officers under them
without delay.
We imagine that in most instances
these positions win be filled by men al
ready well known to the new members
and no good purpose can be suDseryed by
delay in the matter OF the elections anu
holding in suspense those who are can
didates for the Offices.
AS for the consideration Of the pro
posed adjustment or consolidation or
some Of the offices we do not UNDER
stand that this would be done Immediate
~. even should the present investigation
prove that such change was advisable.
1t would seem to us IN justice to be due
the incumbents Of any Office That might
be discontinued that a reasonable period
be granted them to form new business
relations or to provide for their further
lahors in some other capacity.
OF course the new regime is pledged TO
reform methods and retrenchment in all
reasonable respects, but we should de-
plore any zeal that expended itself in the
adjustment Of a petty office or two and
failed TO manifest a lively concern in
the much more important functions OF
city government. We recall the Dockery
Commission at Washington. which en-
ployed three experts at 1900 per annum
each. and whose Tabors resulted in dis
missing some superanuated and super
numerary clerks and left the pension
office 20 deplete the Treasury.
Call an early caucus and DO not mis-
take the spigot for the bunghole.

Bethel Stage Route May Be Changed.

There is an active movement on
foot to secure the consent of the gov
eminent to having the route of the
Bethel stage, which for years has
been through South Pomfret to Barn
ard. changed to the Barnard gulf
road. Together with this change
the government will be asked to es-
tablish new post office at English
Mills, and to extend the route of the
West Hartford and South Pomtret
stage to Woodstock, in order to keep
up communication between the latter
points.
Two petitions ale in circulation
urging the change, which appears to
have many advantages. One of
them omits the request for the ex-
tension of the West Hartford line,
but If any change should be made;
this section of the route will doubt
less be covered BY the West Hartford
stage!
There is no opposition to the plan
at present, and it is being pushed in
a way which ought to insure success.
A larger number of people along
the proposed route will be benefited
by the change, and very few will be
at all South Pomfret is
of course, but so long as
the village has communication with
Woodstock, no objections will come
from that quarter English Mills
will get a post office. which it has
long wanted and needed, and the
residents in that vicinity would be
more than pleased if the scheme
goes through.
The Lakota Club is also interested,
As it would put the members in reg
llar and quite close communication
with the park, and during six months
If the year the line would do Il COM
large passenger and en-
Dress business between town and the
club grounds, as Il station would be
established ut the nearest point on
he line to the grounds.
