STANDS Up F0R sTIIBBs.

It seems that credit must be given
to ". r. Stubs for raising the plane
of Republican politics in Douglas
county. Both in the congressional
primary of March "a and the county
primary last Saturday, Stubs set
his face against the use Of booze or
Doodle. and all parties agree that the
result was the cleanest party primaries
known for years. The Republic is just
a little doubtful about the permanency
and reliability as L reformer of this
man Stubs. but we are willing to give
him all deserved credit from day TO
day as the game proceeds, hoping
that he will finally prove to be all that
his friends now claim for hinn.-Ot-
tawa Republic.

Much has been heard of the shrewd
contention which Bale Waggener has
advanced in favor Of his client, Sena-
tor Burton. The point raised, briefly
stated, is that Senator Burton, being
a part of one coordinate branch of
the government, can not be disciplined
and punished by another branch of the
government for an offense which would
not be criminal if committed by the
senator as a citizen. Mr.. Waggener
argues that Burton is amenable only
to the senate for his conduct as SEN
ator. In the event that Waggener is
sustained by the supreme court, it will
be interesting to note what action is
taken by the senate. a body in which
there are other rascals as great as
Burton, and some greater.-Leaven-

SPEED OF TROLLEY CARS.
Eight Miles is the Gait Within the
 City Limits,

The employees of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting company were yesterday notified that hereafter no car can travel faster than eight miles an hour while within the city limits The order was given out by the gen. eral manager and if 1t Is enforced should be well appreciated by the public. Of late there have been sev- eral trolley accidents and while they have not all been caused by the speed of the cars, in most cases the rapid gait at which the motormen send them along has been the cause of a goodly number. Although the city charter says that the cars shall travel ata certain speed while with In the city limits the ordinance has not been enforced and the motormen if they are behind are not at all backward in sending the cars at any old speed in order to be on time. On the East Main and North Main street lines the cars have sped along at a terrific gait. If the eight mile an hour order is lived up the number of acci- dents in the future should be much smaller than they have been in the past.

HOTEL WATERBURY
Manager Clinton W. Pond Has Filed
 Petition in Bankruptcy.


 David Ducharme, owner of the Ho- tel Waterbury building on Center street, was in town Saturday and had a conference with his counsel. Judge R. A. Lowe. In consequence Clinton w. Pond, who had conducted the ho- tel for the past year and half, has filed a voluntary petition in bank ruptcy through his counsel, w. H. Pierce. This is the third time the hotel business in that building has proved failure. MT Ponds liabili- ties are in the neighborhood Of $5,- 900 and his largest creditor Is MT Ducharme, who has a chattel mort gage for $2,000 on the furniture. Be- sides this, it is claimed that MT Pond owes MT Ducharme about $1,000.
 What MT Pond will do Is not stat ed. It is said that he may remodel the interior of the hotel and resume business. He has lost about $7,0oU.

SNEAK THIEVES ABOUT {
Several Places Entered Yesterday and
 JeweIy and Money Taken.

Sneak thieves were busy yesterday and as a consequence several unsus- pecting victims are short considerable cash and other valuables to-day. The residence of Fred Goslin, 263 North Main street, was entered while the folks were out and the whole house hunted for booty A trunk belong ing to boarder was broken and $25 in money and two watches picked out of 1t. The supposition is that the door was opened by skeleton key. Further up the way at the cor ner of Hill and North Main streets the residence of L. L. Hall was wis., ited, evidently by the same person who called at the Goslin homestead, and several neat pins and other things in that line taken.
 The cases have been reported to the police and the detectives are working on them. There is a lesson in what happened yesterday which everybody who has little money or anything else of much value that can be easily removed should heed. It is a great risk to go away from home and leave money or watches where stranger can get hold of them as soon as he gets inside the doorway. It is an excellent plan to put your money in the bank and pay by check and people who don't want to carry watches are foolish to buy them and leave them slowed away in trunks or in the bureau drawers. At the present time 1t is said that some pretty clever work in this line iR going on and it behooves everybody to be on the alert and see that none of the light fingered fra ternity gets hold of their money or jewelry.

TIE FIREWORKS NUISANCE
SuDsIintsndent Beach Warned Police
 About Violation Of the Law.

Superintendent Beach of the police department intends to see that the law Is observed with reference to the discharge of firearms and raising Cain with flrecrackers on the Fourth of July. and before 1t, too. but lie does not want to take anybody short, 70. that in case anybody gets into trouble he will have no body but himself to blame. The superintendent read the law tp the men last night and tod them to govern their con-, duct accordingly. During the past week several complaints have been received at the police station regard ing violations of the law and If the business Is kept up it is likely that some arrests will follow. Youngsters have already commenced exploding drecrackers and discharging can nOn," in some instances with serious results, and 1t Is wonder why some- body has not been brought up with short turn before now. According to the statutes nobody has a right to explode gunpowder or discharge fire arms in any part of the city without a permit from the mayor, but even the mayor Is denied that right by statute from sundown on July un- til o'clock the following morning. The hours on which the celebration is permitted are from 4 o'clock in the morning of July until Il o'clock at night, and then you can't snap your shooter on the public streets, parks or squares, so that shooting at random is thing of the past, and everybody appears to welcome the change. There is no need of remind ing the public of the number of acci- dents, to say nothing of fatalities, that occur on the Fourth of July on account of the conduct of people who don't seem to care anything about their own lives or that of others and 1t is about time that the law stepped in and did something to protect law abiding citizens from being actually terrorized on such occasions. For many years past the coming of the Fourth of July meant day of great anxiety to thoughtful people, who, because 1t was supposed to be an evt- ucuCc Ol pdtTlOlioIu tU LIdhe u lOJ Ul noise, were afraid to open their mouths no matter what took place in their neighborhoods. It is up to the police officers now to see that the law is upheld, so far as such a thing is possible, and if they fail to do their duty there ought to be some sort of punishment for them. There is a great deal of this reckless shooting going on the year round, especially on Sundays. A reporter of the Demo- crat was told to-day that it Is about all a mans life is worth to pass through the lots in the vicinity of the gas house, where an army of men are said to spend their spare moments Improving their skill as marksmen. Not long since a stray bullet ran afoul of COW and although the own CT tried hard to get something for the loss of the animal nobody offered him copper. On the contrary, he was made the butt of ridicule for all the sportsmen and probably he was lucky to get away himself without a dose of the medicine that was doled out to the COW. But this is digress- ing. perhaps. The question now is What will be done to check indis. criminate shooting on July 4?
