AGRICULTURAL EXHIBITS
AT THE DANBURY FAIR.

There is no exaggeration in the state ment that the agricultural exhibit at the approaching Danbury Fair will be the largest ever shown at that or any other fair in New England. The steady growth of this great fair is one reason for this and another is that this season has been a most prolific cultural products of all kinds. Still another reason is the extraordinary effort put forth by the fair manage ment to attract attention to it's agri- cultural department and thus increase the number of entries. A special feat ure in the agricultural tent will be the exhibit made by w. H. Tarbox, of East Greenwich, R. l., known as the "Dahlia King of Rhode Island.' He will have display of over thousand dahliaS of all varieties beside many other plants. The showing of agri- cultural machinery and implements on another part of the grounds will be of more interest than ever this year as it will be of neatly twice the magnitude of that of last}Year.

SOCIAL TOPICS.
NO L1CENsE.-BY o. o. WRIGHT.

Are we really going to have the
 privilege, under the law of the state,
 or making protest, however feeble
 and unavailing, against the saloon
 business in this town? Will those who that the necessary conditions are con- piled with so as to make the vote ef- fectual? Or will it prove to be a spasm of virtuouS feeling, without the moral courage and good sense to carry the cause through to an actual test:
 Is there not need enough that some
 thing should be done to put check upon the excesses and intolerable bur-
 dens of the drink traffic iI this con-
 munity?
 Whether we may look at the matter from the moral standpoint, or from a purely economic consideration of the question, is it>not worth while-te ~exs press our convictions at the polls on a
 subject of such vital concern to the
 body polite? Shall we submit to the
 inSOlence, expense, and inconvenience
 of this business which degrades the
 town and robs it of every element of progress and prosperity? and not even | take the trouble to show that we are opposed to having so many licenses granted? have great desire to know AOW Aduy c1cCUOIS III UulS VO"u dTc willing to make any protest against the present state of the license busi.
 ness as it is administered in this township. I would like to see mo- license votes enough cast to convince the county commissioners that we are not anxious to support just as many saloons as possible; and that we do not approve of hotel-license fees for
 saloons in order to keep up the num-
 Der of drinking places in the town.
 As a matter of pubic economy we
 ought to put'a check on this business. We cannot afford it. We ought not
 to tolerate it. The single item of pauperism should be sufficient to con- vince us of this. In 1892 the expenses
 of the poor was S2872.O3; in 1897 1t had
 increased to S4O65.77; in 1900 it was 2.29; in 1901 it reached $546O. 43;
 and in 1902 it was $4876.54.
 As rule, three -fourths of this cost
 to the taxpayers is, directly or in-
 directly the results of the drink busi-
 ness. And for many years to come the expense and curse of this kind of pauperism will continue to burden the people of this township.
 The town debt which grew from $2l, 517 .91, in 1892, to $44, 900 in 1902, is another legacy of saloon government.

JAMES THOMPSON GETS HIS JUST DE-

James Thompson, for merly of Derby, later of New Haven jail, and later still of Litchfield, came into town on Sun- day, and proceeded at once to get square with John Philip Egan of New town. It appears that almost two years ago Egan prevented the escape of Thompson and friend from the
 Newtown lookup. where they had been put by the late Sheriff Glover on the charge of burglary, for which Thompson spent nine months in New Haven jail. It seems that he met Egan in the Street about p. m., and followed him on his way home, and down in the lot back of the Smith For esidence- -nrpceeded to pound Egan, who was not able to defend
 himself. He was arrested by Sheriff Johnson on complaint of Grand Juror
 Cannon and brought before Justice Nc Carthy, Monday morning. The
