This Cruel World.

She glided into the office and quietly approached the editors desk. "I have a poem," she began.
 "Well?" exclaimed the editor, with a tone and look intended to annthilate her, but she calmly resumed:
 T have written a I.oem on My Fas ther's Barn. and"-
 "Oh," interrupted the editor with extraordinary suavity, you don't know how relieved I am!

ANOTHER BUBBLE BURST.

"I do not attempt to deny how I voted. l was and am yet un- der the impression that the con- test was between the ConsOli- dated road on one side and the Connecticut Western, the New England Central railroad, the Boston and Albany, the New York Central and Hudson River road, backed by the Vanderbilt millions on the other. And it is pretty generally conceded that Mir Lilley voted with the more powerful side in this case."- From speech of the Hon Charles J. Donahue at New Haven last night.

in this campaign I assume he has reference to my candidacy for the state senate in 1904. My expenses as representative candidate in 1900 did not exceed the sum of $50, and l did not receive n dollar from any source to assist me in this campaign. My expenses in the campaign of 1904 were defrayed out of personal funds and did not exceed $1O0. My expenses in the present campaign have been met by voluntary contributions from the labor unions of Connecticut and not one dollar has been received by me from any other source.
 "I was elected representative in 1900 by a majority of fifty votes. In 1904 my majority in Derby was in creased by 15O, despite the fact that President Roosevelt carried the town by majority of 30 And the people who elected me appreciated the fact that my vote, assisted in securing ef- ficient trolley service to New Haven and assisted indirectly ill reducing car fare from Derby to New Haven from thirty to twenty cents.

 The penned and clipped editor of the Waterbury American endorses Lilley and his filthy language uttered in the Democrat office the other day, and 1t goes farther and says MT Lil- ley will not suffer in public estima- tion by his outburst. Well, perhaps not. Lilley and the Penned and Clipped man belong to the same club, and so no doubt they are acquainted with each others virtures and short comings, but we doubt if the editor has the right to speak for the public on such matters. Here is the squib referred to as 1t appeared in the American last evening:

Farmers Are Beneficiaries.

Among farmers one does not hear
the demand for tariff revision that
was heard the last time there was an
agitation for reduction of tariff. That
was in 1S90-92. The Farmers Alliance
at that time voiced the demand and
politicians took up the cry for the pur.
pose OF riding into office on the crest
OF the popular wave. The result was
that there was a change and the
farmer got the worst of the deal. At
this time the politicians lead the de.
mand for revision. They must have
an issue and have to fan life into the
old revision idea, thinking that the
farmers will tumble all over them.
selves for the benefit of the politicians.
But they don't enthuse very hard. OF
course, a Democratic farmer enthuses,
but he does it because of his party
principles. Republican farmers recog
nize that they are the beneiciaries of
the sound economic system main.

Out Of Evil Good Has Come.

The Washington Post sees trouble
ahead for the Democratic party in the
event that this years elections should
change the political complexion Of the
house of representatives:
But the rabid free traders will
keep up their idle clamor for what
they should know Is impossible. And
If their party in in 1906 they
are not unlikely to render impossible
a Democratic victory in 1905"
Chiefly because of free trade folly
in clamoring for the impossible the
country has been governed by the par
ty Of protection for more than As
years, excepting only a brief period
of two years-1S93-'94. So long as
free trade folly persists in denouncing
protection as robbery the chances are
excellent that the country will con-
tinue to be %governored in the interest
Of prosperity. When the Democratic
party ceases to antagonize protection
1t will be possible to take the tariff
out Of politics, but not until then.

FROG WAS TO BLAME.
Weather Prophet Had Simply Put
Faith Where He Believed He
Had a Right.

James Wilson, the secretary Of agri-
culture, was discussing an ~antiquated
kind Of farming.
ut is about as profitable and logi-
CAL" he said, "as the weather reading
Of a Connecticut farmland I used to
know.
This farmland claimed that he
could read the weather infallibly. On
a walk with me one afternoon a frog
croaked, and he said:
1--WE will have clear weather for "a
hours. When a frog croaks in the
afternoon you may be sur Of "a hours
of sunshine
eve walked on, and in 20 minutes
or so a heavy shower came up and we
were both drenched to the skin.
"'You are Il fle weather prophet
said /, as we hurried homeward
through the downpour. You ought to
be ashamed Of yourself
80, WELL said the farmland, the
frog lied. It's to blame, not me. Am
1 responsible for the morals of that
particular frog?'"
