The Newtown bee., 1901-10-04

1 too. MT Morris has administered the
 office, not as partisan, but in busi- J ness-like and straightforward manner. l And this is what the great body of l taxpayers want, if THE BEE is not mistaken. Many taxpayers have eX- pressed their honest appreciation in
 finding their chief official always sober
 and ready to do business. And indeed l it is marvel that the taxpayers ever permitted and cOuntenanced a contra ry state of affairs The present ad- 1 ministra tiOn came into power with a discOuraging outlook. The present
 board have paid something more than s5, 900 in old bills which MT Glover had thoughtfully neglected to attend to-. They have demonstrated that the
 town can be run on a 12 mill tax, and something paid yearly on our debt of s44 1000. And mind you, this has been done in year of some extraordinary expenditures and in the face of local industrial depression.
 And in face of all this do the voters want to go back to the old go-as-you- please, happy-gC-lucly state of affa irs?
 If we read local sentiments aright, we say most emphatically no. We have no definite knowledge as to who the lead their ticket. Public sentiment will compel them, doubtless, to select some eminently respectable person. But will he, whoever he may be-, have 1 the courage to stand up against that element who would get their hand in 1 the public crib? Is it wise to swap 1 horses when we are crossing the stream? We care not how respectable and eX- cellent their nominee THE BEE be- lieves that from a business standpoint l land that is the only way to look at
 town affairs), the situation demands l the reelection of Levi c. Morris. And what is to be said of party
 which permitted the extravagant ex- | penditures which were allowed under
 the Glover regime? It cannot wash | it's hands free from the stains. Like
 Lady Macbeth the party bosses may
 well exclaim: ''Out, damned spot, out
 say!-One, two! Yet who would
 have thought the old man had so much
 blood in him.''
 "What, will these hands ne'er be clean?"
 "Heres the smell of the blood still l All the perfumes of Arabia will not
 sweeten this little hand. Oh! Oh l Ohn'
 And so, voters of Newtown, THE
 BEE appeals to you all to arise to the heights of true citizenship and on the
 7th of October next rally to the polls
 and cast your ballot for a man who
 will be free from obligations to party
 and who will administer his office in a ! fearless and independent manner.

EDITORIAL INK DROPS,
OUR PLAIN DUTY.

The voters of the town of Newtown are now approaching the parting of the ways, namely, the annual October election, when they must decide by their ballots, who they will have to rule over them, and to endorse or con- demn the honest, fearless and business like administration of Selectman Morris. And we heartily congratulate our plucky first selectman that he has the courage to stand for a reelection against his own personal wishes in the matter. In the issue of October , last THE BEE said in commenting on MT Morris election:
 "No happening. in local political cir cles since the election of William II. Hubbell as first selectman few years since has given as much solid sitisfac- tion to the great body of taxpayers in Newtown as the election on Monday last of Levi c. Morris to this high post, and the general verdict will be, the best man has won. MT Morris election should not for one moment be considered in the light of a partisan victory, for republicans, citizens, dem- ocrats and prohibitionists, labored together to bring about what they hope and pray is the dawn of a better day in the management of our town affairs. The incoming board of select l position, but knowing them as we do, we feel confident that they will labor | together to put the town on a sound | financial basis. It is MT Norris mis- fortune to follow in the steps of a man who has been frightfully eXtravagant. And now final word to that class ot carping critics who know it all and are always ready to graspa club when new 1 llldH SCdiC Us Ill. Doil eApeCC COo ll1uCil | MT Morris is human, but we believe he is honest to the core, fearless in what he believes to be right and a man without hypocrisy. He will do his level best, and all citizens, irrespective of party, ought to help him."
 And has the high ideal held out fol
 MT Morris been realized? THE BEE
 believes it has, and most emphatically

ANARCHY IN

There is something like war in one
region Of Kentucky, but that is not un-
usual out there. In the mining region
Is a condition existing very like an
archy, and this has been going on for
three months, and it grows worse.
What is h remedy. The governor
ought to be equal to the occasion, for
he has the Of the state to
draw upon. II he will send a regiment
or two with cavalry and artillery the
anarchic conditions will soon disappear.
But up north where state rights is a
constant suggestion, the first thought
is to order u. S. troops to the scene of
trouble. The New York Evening Post
speaks approvingly of having the Unit
ed States authorities ito move in the
matter as they did in Chicago There
has never been a more deliberate,
Wanton invasion of a state and a dis
regard to and indefiance of the pro-
test of the governor. Let the govern

~ROsEBERY AND A CRISIS

The opinion grows in Britain that a
new leader is needed. Lord Salisbury
is old and is regarded as slow and lack
ing in vigor. He is really a man OF su-
perior talents, but has comitted him.
self to an unfortunate and indefensible
war in Africa. Lord Rosebery is sug-
gested for the leader Of the divided lib
erals. But whatever his ACCOMPLISH
ments and abilities he a been tried
as Premier and failed, and when there
was no war. He will hardly meet the
demands at a most critical time like
the present. He seems lacking in
breadth and p~ertinacity although OF
marked intellectually among living
English p oliticians. He is essayist,
biographer, gifted speaker and adj
mirably cultivated. put he has not the
Cromwellian gift or the Gladstonian
devotion to certain great moral prin-
ciples. He believes there is a crisis. but
he is not the man to grasp the occa-
sion . He is lately reported to favor
peace as it is practicable. A London
special to the New York Herald on the
18th says OF Rosebery:
He thinks the liberal imprialists
have gone too far in support of Joseph
Chamberlain, n that he believe. in
the practicability Of peace.
He never committed himself to any
thing more ministerial than the propo-
sition that the war was inevitable after
the ultimatum. Nothing follows from
that proposition. 1t begins and ends
with itself. Lord Rosebery, Heretofore,
is free to give the county the benefit
OF his knowledge and experience in this
anxious n critical period.
The columns Of the Times show out
side the cabinet the change at work in
the minds of men who a short time ago
were against making any terms with
the Beers. The Times has fairly pub
lished letters from both sides on this
great national question"

NEW BOOKS.

Beautiful Thoughts" from Ralph
Waldo Emerson, arranged by Marga-
rett B. Shipp. New York, James Pott
& Co., 1901. This is a neat, handsomely
bound little volume of 800 pages, con-
tanning many selections in prose and
verse from one of the most gifted of
New England authors. 1t is arranged
by Mrs. Margaret B Shipp, widow OF
Lieutenant Shipp who was one Of
North Cardinals very gallant, meri-
torous officers who was killed in the
Spanish war. There are selections for
every day in the year. It would be a
nice book to give a friend.
North Carolina History Stories" in
one volume, published in one VOL
ume by B. F. Johnson, Publishing
Company, Richmond, Va, is by w. c..
Allen, superintendent of the Waynes-
vile, N. c., city schools. This volume
is divided into six books, each con-
tanning short stories concerning North
Carolina. 1t is really a meritorous work
of it's kind, we'll printed, and replete
with interest. 1t is intended for the
young, but many of the Did might read
it with profit and pleasure. 1t is a good
reading book for the schools of the state.
Prof. Aliens plan is good and he has
worked it very successfully. We are
glad the boys and girls have such a
book to read.

4 GREAT NEWSPAPER.

Laying aside the politics OF the New
York Evening Post what a handsome,
wide-awake, up-to-date, very able
newspaper it is. 1t is the most
scholarly, the most literary of all Ameri-
can newspapers. 1t celebrated its
Tooth, anniversary On the 18th of No
yember 1901. It's issue on that day was
supremely fine and most elaborate. 1t
published a fac smile Of the first issue,
on November 16, 1901, and a small,
dingy, common specimen it was, n
yet it was of the best possible at that
time. The Messenger is a great sheet
compared with it. The Evening Post
has had q superior staff from the start.
Alexander Hamilton was one Of the
original owners. 1t has had several
men OF distinguished rank connected
with it-William Cullen Bryant, Edwin
L. Godkin (who is alive and not dead
as We saw reported some months ago,
we are gratifed to learn) and others
1t is in very able hands now in all de-
partments, and it has a superior rec
ord, and has been an exponent of the
pest politics in its section, and oeG--
faithful to the highest ideals In htera-
ture, education, science, art and all
that makes for mans elevation. 1t IS
Independent and of curse many OF It's
views are not such as the south holds.
