getting ready the assessors books,
which we're examined by the court at
its session this week and turned over
to the collector. These books require
several months work In turn by the
assessor, the county clerk and the

along the line is a matter Of serious
inconvenience TO those who follow
and to the public generally. Mr..
Marquis work vas completed month
earlier than usual and now that Cap
taiu rhornton's work is finished, the
collector can proceed with the tax
bills and receipts, so that the usual
grand rush at the end Of the year will
be unnecessary.

of the race. That is the return which
the physician makes for the authority
to practice his profession. conferred
upon him by the state. The ideal Of
the physician is not riches. but use
fulness, and it is ideal which diff
ferentiates him from the maker OF in
sect powders or liniments. When the
man gives up his ideal to amass
wealth it is time that he quit the pro-
fessional ranks and take his stand
with the manufacturers. That is the
stand which the leading physicians of
Paris and this country take about this
discoverer Of an alleged cancer cure.
They invoke the established rule that
no man can refuse to make known
such remedy and retain his pro-
fessional standing. THAT rule affords
to the afflicted the only assurance Of
help which there is. All the know
ledge which is no knowledge, and not
mere assumption or presumption, is at
the service Of the duly accredited
physician. Any remedy which pre-
tends to be exclusive or mysterious Is
on the face of things fraudulent The
person who has resorted to such secret
cure and proved its worthlessness by
experience does public service when
he proclaims that experience in the
most public way possible, as Mr..
Croker has done. Brooklyn Eagle.

SEVENTH WARD RALLY.
Republicans Held Big Open Air Meet
ing Last Night.

Republicans Held Big Open Air Meet
ing Last Night.
AT the corileir of Grand avenue and
Hamilton street last night the repub-
licans of the Sixth and Seventh wards
held an open air rally in connection
with the raising of their campaign
banner which now swings across
Grand avenue The clubs headed by
the Roma Olympia military band
marched through the streets of the
ward previous to the speaking and as
they came down Grand avenue the
banner was unfurled over the heads in
the presence Of a great crowd Of on
lockers. r
The first speaker of the, evening was
Harrison B. Freeman of Hartford who
delivered a careful address upon some
of the issues Of the campaign. After
dealing with the state of the country
in general he made special reference
to the state of Connecticut and the
character of the republican state can
didates. Beginning with Mr.. Roberts,
the candidate for governor, he SUM
married him as straight, square, hon
est man. Mr.. Roberts he said, was an
employer of labor I'M Hartford and his
relations with his employees were one
of the utmost cordiality. In Mr.. Rob-
erts' factory the nine-hour day with
the same wages that were paid for the
ten hour day was early adopted AS
a Testimonial of Mr.. Roberts popular
ity with his employees Mr.. Freeman
M e. f9 L.
Roberts came to the factory after re-
eetving the nomination for the COVER
norship his employees presented him
with floral horseshoe tribute.
Following Mr.. Freeman, Edward J,
Maroney, the candidate of the Eleventh
district for state senator, made a brief
address. He spoke Of President Roose-
welt as the man who does things.
Fred Lehr, who is the running mate
OF Major Tilson for representative
from New Haven was next called upon
but he excused himself and made no
address. w..
Judge cleveland followed with few
remarks. He was greeted very cor
| daily when he arose to speak.
Mr. Ullman then remarked upon the
L
absence of Congressman Sperry saying
that although he was absent in body
he was present in spirit.
The last regular speaker on the list
was Andrew F. Kelly, a prominent la
Dor leader and president of the nation
al body of one of the labor unions. He
spoke upon labor topics attempting to
show the working people who made up
the audience the reasons why they
should not support Judge Parker, and
the democratic candidates this year.
He delivered a very jovial talk and
got right in touch with his audience,
which heard to the end with pleasure
| At the conclusion Attorney Jacob B.
lJllman spoke a few words in support
of the republican ticket.

SECRET MEDICAL FORMULAS.
The suit brought BY George Croker
to recover 100000 which he paid a
French physician for the treatment of
his wife is a philosophical action.
Mrs. Croker was suffering from a
cancer, which, In the present state Of
medical science is ir1curable. Mr..
Croker engaged a French physician
who claimed to have a cancer cure, the
formula for which he declined to
diyulge. His patient died, and Mr..
Croker, becoming satisfied that the
claim OF the physician was false and
liable to do harm to other sufferers,
has sued to recover the fee. If he wins
the effect will be not to enrich Mr..
Croker, who intends to devote the
money to charity, but to discredit the
secret nostrun of the physician and to
iput it out Of his power to delude or
profit from other sufferers.
The need Of this sort of protest may
be seen in the dozens of cures" which
are advertised for cancer and for other
ILLS by secret treatment. The only safe
assumption in these cases is that the
claims are fraudulent unless repu-
table physicians come forward and in
dorse them. The long standing rule
among physicians is that the dis
coverer of any remedy or mode Of
treatment is bound to make 1t known
to his fellow practitioners for the good
