DISAPPEARING PAPER.

Disappearing paper is one of the latest, It is steeped in suiphur.c acid, dried and glazed, the acid being partly neutralized by ammonia vapor. It falls to pieces after "a given time'
 Most of the paper made nowadays will disappear soon enough. It needs no sulphuric acid or any other acid to insure it's disappearance. But this pa per that is going to disappear fin a given time" will be useful. It will be especially useful to politicians, lovers and others who fear that their feelings may not be permanent and would therefore like to have their words fade out in "a given time" There are some who know themselves so well that they would like to have paper that would disappear in no time. Now they don't dare to write letters at all. If they had suitable paper they would write some.

the border line into this country from either Mexico or the Dominion is easy. For many months the government has had immigration inspectors in Mexico and Canada making investigations re- spectlng the coming to America of Asiatic Iaborers, especially Japanese. In practically every instance the in spectors have reported that the Jap anese who reach Mexico or Canada are bound for the United States. In quiries in the Hawaiian Islands have revealed organizations whose business it is to procure Japanese laborers for work in the United States
 If we are so menaced by yellow and brown perils it is about time to wake up. The Japanese are so smart that if we don't look out we shall soon be surrounded.

HEST IND woRST.

Life in Chicago is always interesting and lively, but it is little more inter- esting and lively now than usual on account of the bomb explosions which are ''happening" there So far there have been thirteen of them. These ex- plosions are not the work of anarchists that is, not the same kind of an- archists that are working in Russia and once worked in Chicago. It is openly said that there is ring of gamblers there that wants to drive out all but those of it's union and to this end 1t Is systematically blowing up their premises with dynamite. The press of the city says daily that the city authorities, under the direction of the mayor, are in league with the gamblers and protect them, every evil dence of the existence of gambling be- ing ignored by the police, and not an arrest being made.
 A pretty state of things. Chicago Is making so many claims and is really so great and growing that 1t owes it to itself to be a little different. In fact, a good deal different The Star of Em4 pire may have taken it's course west ward, but 1t is evident that the star of good behavior hasn't. Chicago is both west and worst.

political funds the astonishing defense of the practice was made that these corporations were citizens of the State and were entitled to aid in the election of a given ticket If they saw fit to do so. It has since been learned from the mouths of corporation managers on the witness stand why corporations were so eager to give. MT. Quigg has told the country how he acted as ac- celerator for the corporations when public opinion was to be manufactur- ed. It would appear that Mir. Belmont, through the mouth of another, has now told the possibly final and com pleting chapter of how MT. Moneybags pushes his theory of the dollar mak- ing the mare go even to the extent of fooling a federation really bent upon serious investigations. It is not a pret- ty revelation of that phase of human nature, but it has this to it's credit, that it will in the future put innocent men on their guard and make "accel- eration" correspondingly harder to finance and enforce. As for MT. Bel mont the sooner the federation re- ceives his resignation as president the sooner 1t can undertake to restore it. self in public confidence.

SOME SESSITITENESs.

It having been discovered that the army officers who ought to be able to ride can ride, those who have proved that they can ride are exhibiting some about the way the War department officially expressed It's sus- picion that they couldn't. The order requiring the test wasn't very polite in its assumption that those to whom it was issued would resort to falsehood and trickery to make the test as com fortable as possible for themselves. It was specified that an officer must not borrow or hire an animal for the pur- pose of the test; he must not ride a pacing, racking, or single-foot horse; he must be questioned as to the own ership of the animal; he must mot at tempt in any way to secure any partic- ular government horse, as effective measures will be taken to defeat any such attempt" If he is guilty of any of these crimes, he twill be required immediately to fall out of column and to take the test on the day following. mounted on a horse with a good square, unequivocal trot."

THE SQUARE DEAL.

On his trip down the Mississippi river President Roosevelt, who is not familiar with It's changeable charac- ter, thought that the pilot of one of the accompanying steamboats handled his craft in a hazardous manner. The moment he reached shore he had his license revoked.
 At d hearing before the board of steamboat inspectors all of the pilots testified that the charge against the indicted pilot was unfounded. Among the witnesses was the pilot of the boat which bore the President. The latter even testified that he did not take his dents boat as the President stated.
 It is evident that President Roose- welt misunderstanding the difficulties of Mississippi navigation misjudged the man. The gospel of "the square deal" demands that he withdraw his impulsive order and offer an apology. We have no doubt he will do so when he returns to Washington and is plac- ed in possession of the actual facts. It is a serious thing for the suspended pilot to have his means of livelihood thus taken from him without cause. Such treatment often makes bad citi- zens of well intentioned men.

The Democratic Revival.
(waterbury Amerlcan.)

Among the interesting comments on our Waterbury election there are two which are representative of many. One is that quoted from the Hartford Cour- ant warning Republicans that the re- suit has lesson for them, and the oth CT made by the Ansonia Sentinel, tell
 ing Mayor Thoms that his faults have been pointed out so clearly in the cam paign that he can avoid them hereaf- ter. The Democratic victory in Wa terbury is more significant because it is accompanied by other big Democra- tic victories in different parts of the State which shows that the revival of spirit in the Democratic party is some- thing more than local There is dan ger that it will prove to be nothing more than the frequent off-year revival which go encourages Democrats that they become foolish and fail to retain their strength when State or national election comes and the issue is an im- portant one As to Mayor Thoms next term, we agree with the Hartford Times, quoted elsewhere, that experi- ence and the solid foundations of sup port which he finds under him will en- able Mayor Thoms to make a stronger and better administration.

NOT TOO FREE.

This is a free country, but it is not intended to have it too free. One result of the trip of Secretary Straus of the Department of Commerce and Labor along the Canadian border and the Pacific coast has been an order in creasing the force of immigration in- spectors along the Canadian border,
 with view to controlling if possible the flood of Aslatic immigration into America The government of Japan does not issue passports to laborers for America, It does, however, issue pass ports to them for the Hawaiian islands and Canada. Once in the Hawaiian Isl- ands, they take passage either to Mex leo or to Canada, and their way across

HoSPTTABIE.

Massachusetts, ever hospitahle to new thoughts and new notions, is pay ing attention to the notion that gov ernment by commission is a remedy for most of the evils of government by bosses, or by "the people" Bostonians are talking about abolishing the office of mayor and appointing commission to govern the city, and there is an active movement to do that same thing in Salem. To this end petition has been presented to the city govern ment by w. W. Coolidge, well-known lawyer. This is the outcome of much local interest, and some of the largest real estate owners are said to be en- thusiastic over the proposed depar- ture. The Salem board of trade has taken the matter up, and is to open its winter discussions with talk by Pres ident Eliot of Harvard on government by commission. Mir Coolidge's petition ask that the city government appoint a committee to consider this question with view to drafting and presenting a bill to the next legislature, and that this committee hold meetings to learn the sentiment of the people.
 1t will probably be found that the commission government wrinkle wont take all the wrinkles out of city busi- ness, but 1t is evidently going to have a pretty thorough trial.

OUR CONTEMPORARIES.
Spell Out Your Name.
(New London pay.l


 It Is a very bad habit for man, woman or child when they have occa- sion to sign their name to fail to write 1t out in full. On baseball score where there Is lack of space it is well enough to use A. Jones to distinguish the player from B. Jones. but when a business or professional man signs himself with only an initial before his name 1t doesn't appear to be very good taste. Of course a person doesn't have the picking out of his name as! rule and there are cases where If they did they would make different selection. However, the name Is a part of their personality and 1t cannot disgrace them even if 1t does not have poet ical sound. J. may stand for John, Josiah, Jeremiah or many other names and the only way to have any individ- uality is to spell 1t out in full

PROFITABLE TO RLCEIYE.

Of course it is still more blessed to give than receive, but it is sometimes pretty profitable to receive and assist in receiving. About four years ago the New York Building-Loan Banking Company was forced into bankruptcy because of the reckless management under which its property was being squandered It was then found to be in possession of $1,0S7,SS2 of assets. Since then about sSoO,OOO has been paid out to attorneys for the receiver. One of these attorneys has put in claims for services amounting to
 $182,S50, and has been allowed $139,- 921.30. He has still bill of S10,000 for three and a half months service not passed upon by the receiver, And the latter reports that owing to the pendency of numerous suits at law
 and other obstacles the fifteen per
 cent. dividend to the shareholders or dered paid more than year ago can not yet be disbursed, and that one or
 more years will be necessary for wind ing up the company's affairs.
 It Is to be hoped that the receiver
 and his assistants wont be generous enough to spend their own money If
 they find the company's money gives

 have an important duty to perform, | but they are not called upon to pay for the privilege of doing it.

In former times England did not hesitate to regulate the sale of coal in the interests of the poor. In 1855, when the duty on coal in London was one shilling (twenty-five cents) a chaldron (generally thirty-six bush els), Cromwell granted the city cor poration license to import 400 chaldrons duty free every year for the poor citizens. At the same time 1t was provided that the city companies should lay up stores of coal in sum mer (from three to CTS chaldrons, as they were able), to be retailed in the winter in small quantities. And, in order to prevent extortion, conspiracy and monopoly retail dealers were prohibited under penalties from con- tracting for coal or meeting the coal vessels before they arrived in the port of London

The United States consul at Mouk- den reports that Chinese authorities have been active in enforcing the provisions of the anti-opium edlct and 1t is expected that all dens will be finally closed by the early part of June, 1908. Proclamations in the vernacular have been posted every where throughout the city, urging the people to abandon the use of the drug. There have in the past been 1,6OO dens in MoulSden, the daily con sumption averaging 200 packets, or about 1000 pounds. It is stated also that about 2,6Oo pounds of bean oil have been daily used in the opium lamps.
