TRADES UNIONS AND sPoILs
 POLITICS.

The difficulty which has reached an acute stage in the New Haven Eco homie league will not cause surprise to those who have given intelligent consideration to the question of labor organizations in politics. In New Ha- ven, as elsewhere, are men who make a business of spells politics. These men care as little for the welfare of the masses as they do for the Golden Rule. They make their politics a source of personal profit, with no in tention, whatever, to benefit those whom they are supposed to serve. They are tout for the stuff'' and they regard with feeling very closely akin to contempt their fellows in the pub lie service who are so old-fashioned as to be conscious of moral responsibil- ty.
 In New Haven, as in other popuIous sections of Connecticut, the Economic league has been very potent factor in promoting clean politics able. con sc1entious public service. The New Haven league has done most excellent work. But, apparently. it's usefulness is in grave danger of impairment from the pernicious activity of an element in its membership which was last evening denounced by the leagues president who followed up the denun- ciation by resigning the office
 The New Haven experiences will be duplicated in other towns and cities where Economic leagues exist unless the organizations are kept entirely free from the machinafions of self seeking politicians The association of individuals for the common good is to be commended and in every proper way encouraged, but the shifty fel- lows who seek nothing beyond their own advancement. and that to the prejudice of the general good, should be kept outside of every body organiz- ed to secure good government.

 The New York Sun advertises in Printers Ink of July g, that their gain in advertising for the months of April, May and June, 1902 exceeded that of the same months in 1901 by 294,S23 lines-the gain on the Sun be- ing p per cent and on the Evening Sun42 per cent. AS is we'll known the Sun had a long and bitter struggle with Typographical union No. 6 of New York, during which time not only was that paper boycotted, but it's ad- vertisers as we'll. The result was that both the newspaper sale and advertis- ing patronage of the paper were near ly ruined, the largest of general ad- vertisers in the country as we'll as the New York merchants withdrawing their patronage and many newsdeal- CTS throughout the eastern and middle states refusing to handle it under any circumstances. The boycott was taken off just prior to April l. 1902, at the time when the increase in advertising began to show The Suns adv. is the most eloquent tribute to the power of unionism that the writer has yet seen.
 It is quite evident that labor organi- Zations are following closely the steps of the capital organizations, insomuch as we are informed that the British miners are ready to demonstrate the internationally of their different un- ions by moral and financial support which is offered to the miners of the United Mine Workers of America in their present heroic struggle for better conditions. This is without doubt a step in the right direction and which will ultimately end in the adoption of ama1gamation. Ama1gamation of the trades unions is the secret of success, by which labor can place itself in a position to demand it's just rights. This is being exemplified every day even in our own city by the conces- sions granted to the toolmakers and machinists recently of the nine hour day. they having about decided to or ganfZe under the auspices of the Anal. gamated Society of Engineers, etc Since capital, through it's leaders, and the press states that the trusts honor no flag that floats over the fields of commerce and industry. so long as the dividends are, consistent So should la Dor begin to. drop their foolish, patri- otic sympathfes and begin to combine under the flag of amalgamation, no matter at what craft they may be em- ployed, ,+ as,sss..f ~ s.

It is now given out by both operators and miners that the great coal strike will probably end within the next four weeks. Both sides claim they will win. Patrick Carney of the executive com mittee of the miners, says We fool ishly started this fight at a time of the year when little coal is ever mined Now we are approaching the period of the year when coal will have to be mined some way. The operators will have to have coal by October 1, but the strikers are able to remain out in- definitely. I think you can readily see we are going to win" Waterbury peo- nle who are now paying $7.50 per ton for their coal and expecting it to go much higher before cold weather sets in unless some settlement is reached, cannot see the men go back too quick 1v to please themselves, but the major ity will hope to see them receive a fair recompense for their labor and a set tied agreement by which such affairs will not be of so frequent occurrence in the future.

COLD CURED CHEESE.
Experiments Show That the Colder it
is the Better the Cheese.

Experiments Show That the Colder it
is the Better the Cheese.
An experiment on commercial scale,
which is expected to stimulate the do
mestic and foreign trade in American
cheese, is being conducted in a refrig-
Grating warehouse in North Moore
street by the United States department
of agriculture and the New York state
experiment station at Geneva. Several
tons of cheese, representing the best
brands of New York, Vermont, Penn
sylvania and Ohio. have been placed in
three rooms Of the warehouse and the
effect of different temperatures upon
the qualities of cheese during the ripen-
ing process is being studied. A similar
experiment is being made in Chicago
by the department of agriculture and
the Wisconsin experiment station.
The experiment is the outgrowth of
others made at the New York state
station between 1899 and 1901, in which
cheese cured at temperatures common
under ordinary conditions were COM
pared with similar cheese cured at low
er temperatures. These experiments
established that keeping the cheese
comparatively cool during the time Of
curing would improve the product. The
lower the temperature the better was
the cheese.
The results convinced the department
of agriculture and the experiment sta
tons cooperating with it that cheese
can be SO improved as to make it pa
tent to manufacturers that the temper
ature of the curing rooms should be
materially reduced, Three tempera-
tures-ferty, fifty and sixty degrees
Fahrenheit-are now being employed.
1.-THE experiment is likely to increase
the popularity of American cheese both
at home and abroad said George A.
Smith, dairy expert representing the
New York state agricultural experiment
station. 1T will demonstrate that we
can produce a cheese of mild, delicate
favor, more readily degestible and Of
better keeping qualities than that usu-
ally found on the market New York
Sun.

THIS STATE.
A dispatch from Union Conn, says:
A granite monument has been erected
by Labor Commissioner Henry E. Back
over the grave of James Armour, Jr.,
in the pine woods just east of the road
from Mashapaug to Union between the
Major Smith place and the Cleveland
place, so-called. This James Armour,
Jr., was a revolutionary soldier, who
ter part of his life and died pauper.
Therefore, he never had any stone. Mr..
Black played around the grave in his
boyhood days, and erected the monu-
ment because he felt it ungrateful that
Revolutionary soldiers grave should
become forgotten and not have any
marker. The stone is set upon a bed
of rock and Portland cement and will
stand through all time, The entire
expense was met by Mr.. Back and not
by the Armour family, as has been re-
ported. James Armour, Jr., was a.
great-uncle to the late Philip D. Ar
mour, the multi-millionaire Chicago
meat packer and, undoubtedly his
grave would have been furnished with
suitable marker before this, if the
wealthy Chicago relatives had known
of its neglected condition. James Ar
mour, Jr., was also an uncle Of Mrs.
Polly Paul, wife of Captain Chauncey
Paul, who was we'll known in Connecti-
cut a generation or more ago. James
Armour, Jr.'s wife was Eunice Arnold,
young lady from New York state,
whom he married during the Revolu
tionary war. The tradition in Union
has it that the Eunice Arnold was
either sister or q cousin of Benedict
Arnold, the traitor. Miss Adelaine
Paul, of Genesee, ILL.,, daughter of
Chauncey and Polly Paul, in writing to
friend in the east, recently, says:
James Armour was uncle to my moth
err He was a Revolutionary soldier.
He lived north Of Thomas Moore. He
married Eunice Arnold. He died in
the Armour house (you call it the Ma
jor Smith house). My grandfather,
John Armour, built that house in 1915.
James Armour was buried by his re-
quest by the east side Of the road
where the Armour and Cleveland comes
together. Some thought he meant the
west side of the road where their land
came together, as that spot was in
sight of the Armour house, a little way
up the hill. Mother went to the funeral
as the only Armour. All her fathers
family had moved to Stockbridge, N.
Y. I used to stop at his grave as
went to school. There was a rail fence
around it then. I tagged it just before
7 left Union. Mother said he was q
bright. quick witted fellow, He took
to drink and ran all his property out,
and died on the town. Mother would
be pleased to know he was remember
ed. His mother had a stone In the old
Union yard near Mr.. Curtis.
