STRONG EFFORTS
 F0R ARBITRATION
ccontinued from First Page.)


 Several countries. including the Unit ed States, Great Britain, Germany and Italy, have other propositions on the subject of arbitration ready to be pre- scented separately or as amendments, all aiming to make arbitration the ordi- nary course to De followed by disput- ants, in fact trying to generate a feel ling that it would be dishonorable to have recourse to force before appealing to the law. The greatest difficulty is the system to be followed in the select tion of the judges, as upon their integ- rity and high character will greatly de- pend the success of the permanent ar blrtration court. The proposition that each signatory power select two per- sons of its nationality, recognized as eminent jurists, is considered imprac- tioal, as it would transform the court into a parliament of nearly hundred members. General Horace Porter has several propositions on the subject, but they have not yet been announced or definitely drafted
 Besides the proposition regarding ar bitration Italy will present a proposi- ton against that of Great Britain on the laying of automatic floating and submarine mines as Italy needs to de- fend her 5000 miles of coast and will also present an amendment to the French proposition on the opening of hostiiities, not agreeing to any delay between a declaration of war and the opening of hostilities.
 The German proposition referring to the treatment of neutrals in the terri tories of belligerents deals with the de- fnition of the services which neutrals are forbidden to undertake in favor of belligerents, with the inviolability of the property of neutrals and the in- demnities to be paid to them in case of damage
 1 Major General Yernoloff (Russia) on the subject of the opening of hostilities l presented the question::

TILsoN BACK IN HOUSE.
Salary of Highway Commissioner In-
 creased to $5,0OO.

Hartford, June 27.-speaker Tilson presided in the house to-day, and was warmly greeted when he called the house to order. An unfavorable report was made on g bill granting an appro- priation to the Connecticut Pomological society, and the bill was rejected. The grant is covered in another bill. The petition for an amendment to the char ter of the Rockville Gas and Electric company was rejected.
 The house concurred with the senate in increasing the salary of the high way commissioner $5,O00 a year. passed a resolution continuing the commission on revision of the corrupt practices act until the next session, and passed the original bill amending the charter of the city of New Britain, and rejected the amendments introduced by Senator Brady,
The daily morning journal and courier., 1907-06-28

the salary question was discussed: There has been a lot of misinforma- tion and loose talk at the meeting, and "The vast majority of the taxpay CTS think that the committees recom- mendation is just and proper On one point at least the teachers and the board of education can agree, and that is that the wishes of the taxpayers should be considered. But the teachers will go step further and say that not only should their wishes be considered but their wishes should be obeyed. The teachers herewith present to the board of finance a list of taxpayers who "most respectfully request your honorable body to appropriate a sum of money sufficient to put In operation the coming. year the salary schedule sub lnitted by the Teachers league to the board of education"
 This is not loose talk-the signatures are before you and the roll of honor is a long one-one taxpayer alone paying more individual taxes than all the members of the board of education combined
 Among the names you may notice those of Henry I. Engnsh, Nathan s. Bronson, Samuel L. Bronson, Thomas H. Corbett, Abner HenGee, s. z. Poli,, P. J. Kelley, Frederick D. Grave, Peirce N. Welch, Henry 10. Rowe, Simon Pir- sky all of whom pay taxes in more l than $75, 1000. Thousands of other tax payers have signed this petition. The statement that the vast majority of taxpayers think the board of educa- ton s recommendation is just and pro- per is thus refuted by this list of rep resentative citizens and taxpayers.
 In conclusion the teachers wish to say that they have tried to be fair, ] they have taken the public into their i, confidence realizing that the good peo- pie of New Haven are deeply interest," ed in the schools and wish to be just towards the teachers,
 They feel that the amount asked for 1 by the board of education is made quate, thus resulting In injustice and dissatisfaction; that the amount requir- i ed by the teachers schedule is moder- ate, and yet will give both justice and satisfaction to the teachers; that it will enable teachers next year to devote their whole time and attention to school duties, and not leave to do the work that should be done by the board of education; that it will pE the schools on high plane of efficiency,
 The city charter confers on the board of finance the power to appropriate any sum it deems necessary, so there should not be any hesitation on that score.
 So, in justice to the teachers of the city. out of consideration for the we'- fare of the children, and in accordance with the expressed wishes of the vast majority pf the taxpayers of the city of New Haven, the teachers most re- spectfully request the honorable board of finance to appropriate a sum of money to put in operation the coming school year the salary schedule sub mitted by the Teachers league to the board of education.

the historical and scientific works he could
ma. HIS mead was enormously large, and
at the age of fourteen his fathers cap

school teacher and she tutored her son So
successfully that he spent only about three
was sent away to study. He absorbed
everything, and when he came home a
physician J., told his father; Samuel Edison
to put the young man to work that his
mind might be diverted from his studies
and from books.
1t wasn't long before young Edison was
given a job as newsboy on train run
ming between Detroit and Port Huron. He
started little, store in Port Huron where
he sold eggs, butter and fruits which he
bought from the farmers along the rail
road.
MAKES 500 ON PAPERS.
When the battle of Pittsburg Landing
was fought the first reports that reached
Detroit were that 10000 had been killed
and wounded Young Edison usually sold
about forty papers on his trip, but he
knew he should have many more than that
on the day OF the battle. He had money
enough to buy 400, and the owner of the
Detroit Free Press trusted him for 600
more. the enterpriSlng youth induced
telegraph operator to flash the news along
rne line, knowing that everyone would want
paper. The result was that the station
platforms were crowded with eager men and
women who wanted to get the first news
from the front. He sold every one of the
1000 papers at greatly Increased prices,
some as high as % cents, and cleared about
500. This awakened in him a desire to
become a telegraph operator He learned
une code and worked at Detroit, Memphis,
louisville and Boston for the Western
Union Company. Finally he drifted into
New York with but little money, having
