Greater New York indicated herself
in Tuesdays election. The overwhelm-
Ing defeat of Croker and his Tsmmany
Hall will encourage every boss-ridden
community in the country to take heart
from the example of the metropolis, and
purer municipal government will become
less of an ''iridescent dream" than 1t has
been In many a day. Good for New
York!

In a recent interview ex-United States
Senator Washburn of Minnesota says
"Steel rails can be manufactured today
at fair profit and sold at $l7 80 ton.
At that price the rail mills would make
a larger profit on their product than the
Touring mills would make by profit of
10 cents barrel on four-which the
Touring mills would be glad to make,
but do not. From the best information
l have been able to gather, steel rails
can be manufactured at about SIG per
ton. Sold as they were two and half
years ago at Sl7 so, there was profit OF
81 50 per ton, which is more than the
profit on flour at 10 cents per barrel,
and that is a larger profit than is aver
aged by the Touring mills of this
country. Yet such rails are now being
sold at $2S per ton, making it easy to I'M
derstand, with such enormous profits,
how the steel mills are enabled TO pay
dividends on shares three.fourths of
which are composed of water. | do not
know Just what sum would be required
to rebuild these properties, but from
what am able to learn | am satisfied
that they can be reproduced at less than
one half the amount for which they are
capitalized. The consequence is that the
people and the consumers of the country
are being taxed TO this enormous extent
in order that the trusts and consOlida-
tons may pay such dividends. And yet,
with this condition of things, we now
have a duty of $50 per ton on steel
rails And what | have here said OF
steel rails can also be said of structural
steel. which now enters into construction
of different kinds to such an enormous
extent. If this is not robbery | would
like to find some stronger word to char.

Old Manuscripts in sheldon Museum.
The surest place in town to find old
manuscript record books is at the town
clerks Office, but a glance at well
filled and good sized book case in the
Sheldon Museum would reveal many of
much interest, il not Of financial value.
Some of them are more than hundred
years old, and many are Of the earlier
years of the last century. Lake Dun
more first came into prominence by the
establishment of glass factory, which
included hottie factory at East Middle
bury. They made money also, genuine
paper bank bills, and with the record
books came also bounteous supply to
the museum fellow. A county agricul-
tural society was organized in 1919, and
the record book comes down to us with
the constitution, bylaws, officers, pre-
MUM list and record Of meetings, all in
one handwriting and that almost as
plain as print. But the most interesting
to note is the autograph signatures OF
about hundred and fifty of the most
prominent men In the county. There
are few living who can recall nearly
all of them.

Mrs. Juen Decides not
to Prosecute Her
Husband.

Pong Chong was brought before Judge
Wilcox yesterday for a violation of the
sanitary laws. The defending attorney
asked for a continuance of the case un-
til March 5, stating that the prosecu-
ton was willing to give defendant a
chance to make certain alterations in
his premises.
| The Judge granted the continuance,
saying that he did not want the Board
! of Health to raise howl that they
could not get justice in the District
Court
! Six of the drunk and dsorderly bril-
gade were sequestrated from 81 and
costs.
| Ryan, also drunk. said: Il am off the
George Curtis; | was not drunk-only
slightly intoxicated; L partook of but
two small beers.
! Judge Wilcox said that it was a diff
ferent name for the same thing, and
added that as defendant had only drunk
two beers he would limit the fine to two
dollars.
Alexander Hagan, another victim of
X akaako private stock, said that he was
a soldier from the Sheridan, and i'm
plored His Honor to let him depart in
peace.
| Inc deputy SnerlH SdlO, however,,
both the Military and Naval officers of
the transport had seen him in his cell
and refused to release him. evidently be-
cause they would rather have his room
than his company.
The Magistrate fined him the usual
amount, remarking that if he were a
betting man he would wager that de-
PENDANT was a stowaway and would be
somewhere along Hawai's peaceful
shores long after the Sheridan had left.
Jim Moore asked for a discharge on
the grounds that he had not been drunk
for seven weeks.
Seventy times seven and I might have
relented," exclaimed the Judge, as he In
Vited Mr.. Moore to produce.
Harry Juen, charged with having COM
mitted assault and battery on his wife,
told the Court that for certain reasons
he had decided to plead guilty.
Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth explained
that Mrs Juen did not wish to prose-
cute but only wanted her husband to
idesist from beating her He said that
defendant was very much under the in
fuence of liquor when the assault took
place and asked that sentence be sus-
pended.
Judge Wilcox remarked that complain
ant had experienced a rather sudden
change of heart and suspended sentence
for six months.
You must not go around to other
women's houses" he said to defendant.
when you got married you were sup
posed to quit all your old loves. 1 sup
pose it's like mixing oil and water to
tell you both to go home and live peace
ably"
