her. and rented cottage, where she
lives alone with her cats and kittefs
The seed of the trouble was sown two
years ago. when Miss Carroll, who then
lived with her aunt, was presented by 0
friend with pretty Maltese cat with
green eyes.
The green eyes we're the particularly
| fetching feature of the cat, and they
appealed at once to Miss Carroll.
Miss Carroll was more inclined to-
ward kittens than she was toward
grown cats, but she did not confide this
to the donor of the cat until she learned
the next day that the green-eyed tabby
was the mother of kittens.
Miss Carroll cIung to her preferences
for kittens
The result was that she took one OF
the infants, leaving the mother to care
for the others until they, too, became
ratters and could care for themselves.
SNOWFALL might have lived out her
traditional existence of nine lives in the
Taylor domicile had she continued as
she started out, but one morning she
made her debut as the proud mother Of
several kittens.
She had cause to be proud. too, be-
cause it was as finely assorted family
as any mother could wish.
Among the number were tortoise
hsell. a Maltese, tiger. and several
that were mixtures of all kinds
The kittens and the trouble came at
the same time.
Mamie" said Mrs Taylor to her
niece. a few days after the kittens had
arrived. and after she had had score
of narrow escapes from stepping on the
small specimens that were wandering
around the house. do you not think the
condition of affairs has reached one OF
too much cat"
Miss Carroll was not slow to resent
this reflection on her pets
NO indeed" she answered. "The
Egyptians were a highly cultured race,
far advanced in learning and civiliza-
tion and they held cats high above all
other animals in esteem, almost wor-
Shipping them"
THAT may be-" replied Mrs Taylor
"but never was in Egypt in my life
and do not intend to have my house
filled. with these nasty. crying, lighting
fiea-covered eats day longer.
You may get rid of the cats, or you
may go. taking them with you"
''ff you love me. you should love my
cats" reioined Miss Carroll.
Mrs. Taylor assured her niece that
while her affection for her never had
faltered. she firmly refused to so far ex-
tend her love as to include family OF
kittens.
Then" steadfastly announced Miss
Carroll Il shall take my cats and go"
The Cincinnati Commercial says that
Miss Carroll Immediately rented a
small cottage on the Groesbeck road
College Hill, and with her pets moved
into It.
She lives there alone with her cats and
kittens
The family now consists Of 19 cats OF
all ages and kinds. the only likeness
among them being the fact that each

day labor instead. They wish if pos
sible to employ our own people, and
Hartford help will have the prefer
ence. However, the improvement
will not be allowed to drag, and, al
though loath to do so, it may be
necessary to import foreign labor.
This system of day labor is ri ght in
principle if surrounded by the neces-
sary safeguards. The laborer is
worthy Of his hire, and the public
will not appreciate sharp practices
i'll order to get something for moth
ing. At the same time it will not do
to permit any dillydallying. Compe-
tent foremen should beemployed and
every effort must be made to see that
a Just return is given for each dollar
expended. We think we measure
public sentiment when we assert that
the taxpayers will appreciate every
businesslike step that is taken by the
Commissioners, but that they will
also intelligentlv scan the list of ex-
penditures and be quick to bestow
either praise or blame as the figures
may warrant. 1t is an opportunity
TO show just how cheaply good work
can be done by day labor, and if the
job is managed in the proper man.
ncr, as we feel sure that it will be,
the statistics of the resume will be OF
much use to other communities who
have like interest in the cause oil

THE RACE ISSUE.

Face to face is the Democratic par
ty and the negro question. The issue
this fall is not of our own seeking,
but the result Of number of injudi-
cious acts of President Roosevelt,
crowned with the finishing touch ola
plank in the national Republican plat
form. The Democrats cannot there
lore be blamed, as their acts in this
direction have been discounted by a
Republican President, aided presuma-
bly, by few selfish scheming politi-
clans. The only party to be pitied in
this fight is the poor negro, who will
be worsted no matter which side
wins. Should the Republicans be
successful he will be so pulled with
pride and arrogance as to regard
with disdain the white mainland
more especially the one who helped
!lim, and this spirit will be followed
by a series Of conditions the particu-
lars of which we fear to predict. If
he loses, and such now seems to be
the case, the white man will be COM
PEELED in sheer defense to undo every
kindness of the past forty years, and
he will find his condition SO degraded
as to be absolutely loathed.
The present crisis has been prima-
rily brought about by three princi-
pal acts of President Roosevelt, sup
plemented by his position in each
case and the endorsement given by
his friends. The country was first

THE CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATION.

THE CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATION.
As the time for the Congressional
convention of the Second District
draws near, much interest is mani
tested as to who the nominee will be-
Naturally we are anxious to have
him from Hartford, and we believe
that no man can be named who will
be more satisfactory to the Demo-
Gratis of the whole district than Sena-
tor Thomas II. Robinson. For the
past month his name has been repeat
edlv discussed, and it has generally
been conceded that he would be the
choice of the convention if he could
be induced to give his consent.
We have had an interview with
Mr.. Robinson, and While lie Still
stands firmly to his resolution not to
be candidate for the nomination,
yet we believe that if the convention
should voluntarily offer him the
nomination he would yield to the
wishes of the delegates and accept.
Mr.. Robinson is in every respect we'll
equipped to make his mark in Con-
gress and will make worthy sue
cessor to our present able and expert
enced representative, the Hon. ]. +.

ROOSEVELT AND BOOKER Z. WASH
INGTON FOR 1908.
From the Washington Pos

EDITOR PosT:-As a colored man
wish to call attention to the differ
ence between the Republican and the
Democratic National Conventions.
At the Republican convention the
colored man was treated as COM
panion, friend and brother. There
he was made to feel as if he were not
only political, but social equal.
The delegates followed the advice
and example of our beloved Presi-
dent, Theodore Roosevelt, who
teaches that the colored man deserves
to be treated as a social equal. To
emphasize this fact, he had the cour-
age to have at his table Prof. Booker
T. Washington. If Roosevelt is elect
ed it will so encourage the colored
men that we will demand that Prof.
Booker T. Washington shall be the
Republican candidate for Vice
dent in 1908.
Let not my colored brethren forget
that scene in the Republican conven-
ton when a beautiful white girl was
placed upon the stage, and by her
side negro boy. They then placed
flags in their hands and allowed them
to lead the cheering, thus making the
first and grandest example of the
equality of the races that history re-
cords.
In the Democratic convention there
was not single colored man. 1t
was i'll word and i'll deed 4 white
mans convention Of Il white man
party. All hail to Roosevelt, who
has given the poor negro so much to
encourage him to persist in his po-
litical and social rights.

Secretary Cortelvou, Of the Ma
tional Republican Campaign Com
mittee, is using every effort to bring
about the election of his chief. 1t is
said that he has already signified his
intention of using for political pur-
poses the great army of Federal APP
pointees, which will include 1900
rural free delivery carriers, a large
number of postmasters and letter
carriers and the great mass of voters
dependent on those employed in the
various departments. Federal office
holders will be sent to their homes
to work up sentiment for the Repub-
lican ticket, and every available per-
son will ask for the customary thirty
day leave in time to use it for the adj
vance of Republican interests. 1t is
evident, from the elaborate prepare
tions being made, that Mr.. Roose-
welt realizes the seriousness of the
fight before him and proposes to leave
nostone unturned that might be uti-
lized for the sake of the cause.
If, as the Republicans say, there
will be glorious victory for their
party in November, many voters
wonder why they are worrying about
the age of Mr.. Henry 6. Davis.
Even Secretary Root says that he is
too old 4 man to be Vice President
No doubt if the truth could be made
public there are many Republicans
who wish that the Republican con-
vention Of 1900 had chozen an octo-
genarian instead of the strenuous
Teddy" Their chances for success
would have been much brighter to-
day.

No existing change will be made in
the roadbed except some minor
grades recommended by Engineer
Johnson, who will have the work in
charge. The improvement will be
pushed vigorously, as the Commits
sioners realize that the time is not
long before the Woolsey appropria-

the terms of the will this occurs in
