 The dog question, which was the E!c, aient topic of conversation, has not yet died a natural death. Yesterday Selectman A. M. Lewis went to Hart ford with view of placing the mat ter in State Commissioner Averills hands, but the latter was away. and will not be home until Thursday, but will take the matter up at that time
 The cause of the trouble was a bite on the leg received by Thomas Welch from dog owned by Matthew Horan. MT Horan was ordered to shoot the dog by Dog Warden Foley, but he disap- peared for a day, and then came back, saying the dog could not be found. It is the opinion of the majority of peo- pie that Horan has the dog in hiding some place, and refuses to give 1t ur
 on account of its value. A specialist from Middletown who has made study of hydrophobia says that the dog should have been killed immediately, and his head sent to Middletown for examination, because if anything should develop from the bite. it would be too 1 late to offset the deadly disease. Un- | doubtedly prosecution will be brought
 as soon as Commissioner Averill re- turns.

Prof Henderson of the university

Chicago is large city, like Pekin.
but 1t is not great. People live here
only until they can go to New York.

heaven" That is almost as bad as
what Jack London said to that city
on his return to England. Chicago"
he said, lis a sort of cross between
a civilized city and a western min
ing camp. except that things are
done in Chicago every day with i'm
punity for which in a mining camp
man would be shot on sight"
Both OF these cities may be right"
says the Chicago Chronicle in com
ment, "but it may not be amiss to
inquire whether the university Of
Chicago is great or only large?"

President Roosevelt believes that
the present designs OF the gold coins
lack something in an artistic way.
and in this belief is supported by
many other people. Consequently a
change has been ordered. and will
probably be made within a year The
law provides that the designs shall
not be changed oftener than once
in 25 years. and stipulates that on
each coin shall appear an emblem
OF liberty the year OF the coinage.
and the words "E Pluribus Uuum. &"
Beyond these specifications, the pres
ident has authority to choose the
design at his own discretion. The
present gold coins have been I'm use
80 years.

We Have the Dollar Now.

In the monetary crisis of 1898 gold
Bowed rapidly out of the country. Eu-
rope drew a hundred millions Of the
metal from in that year.
If you are hungrey and somebody
takes away what food you have, recu-
peration, obviously, will be slow.
Within few days following the none
tary crises of 1907 we drew twenty-five
millions of gold from Europe, and sharp
advances in European discounts rates
did not at once check the movement.
Our need of gold was, in fact, much
more urgent fourteen years ago; but we
couldn't get the metal. We simply cid
not have the financial rower to COM
mand it.
We have that power now, and the
fact gives, in nutshell, the difference
between the two periods.
In 1898 we could give no conclusive
assurance that we would pay in gold.
Our legal dollar was "coin," which
might mean hundred cents worth of
gold or sixty cents worth of silver.
Europe was disinclined to take the
chances, The law of 1900, making gold
the standard, removes that handicap.
But there IS not much use in having
a gold dollar on the statute-book unless
you have it in your pocket, too. One of
the forerunners of the real panic was
pretty universal condition of insolvency
among those concerns that made a
special business of lending money on
Western farm lands.
In 1892, 1898 and 1904 the West was
broke, Production of wheat and corn
those three years was under six billion
bushels against ten bill ons in 1904,
1905 and 1906; wheat averaged IS cents
against rs. Cotton production was 90
million bales against 35 millions the last
thie e years; the price eight cents
against eleven. Total bank deposits in
1894 were IL billions against IL IA
billions now. In 1904 the Treasury's
stock of gold was Ga millions against
$50 millions in October, 1904; total in
the country, 59S millions against 1882
millions. Everybody now knows what
Uncle Sans dollaris, and that he's got
the dollar. Saturday Evening Post.
