GERMAN CATHOLICS.
Annual State Meeting Took Place in
 Naugatuck Yesterday.

{ lA
 The annual state federation of Ger man Catholic societies took place yes terday in Naugatuck and was very largely attended. The principal speak CTS were the Rev Farrell Martin, D. D., Waterbury; Father Dahme, Bridge port; George Baer, New Haven: Will liam Koch, Bridgeport; William Froechlich, Naugatuck. The attitude of the state on the county home lIes- hon was discussed. It appears tha. Connecticut, and especially New Ha- ven county, is manifestly unfair to Roman Catholics in it's treatment or destitute children and the federation thinks that the matter is of sufficient importance to demand the attention of all right minded citizens, regardless of creed The following resolution was passed unanimously:
 We demand that all Catholic or phans, who, because of their state or Restitution or for some other reason become wards of the county, be com mitted to the care of Catholic instl- tutions and be supported, as justice demands, by county funds. We cor dially and confidently invite our fellow Catholics throughout the state to CO., operate with us in employing every righteous influence at our command to the end that our just demands in this matter be both heard and satisfied by the proper officials"
 A resolution was also passed ex- pressing sympathy for the people on account of the trouble in France, and assuring His Holiness of their individual support in all things aper- taining to the welfare of the church Officers were chosen as follows: President, George Jacob. New Haven vice president, John Paulus, Derby; financial secretary, Joseph Dehr- bacher, New Haven: treasurer Charles Fielder, Hartford; chaplain the Rev H. Dahme, Bridgeport; dele gate to the national convention George Jacob Committee on socie- ty and membership: The Rev H Dahme, Bridgeport; George Jacob New Haven: John MorenZ. Meriden and William H. Siefen, Naugatuck.

pouble Tragedy Near Springfield.

SPRINGFIELD. H., May 31.-Carry- ing her sister Carrie, hopeless crip- pie only seven years old, in her arms to secluded spot, Cora Leaderbrand, seventeen years old. daughter of q prosperous farmer near here, shot her little charge through the brain and then killed herself. Their bodies were found side by side. with evidence that in her death struggle Cora had tried to kiss her dead sister. There is no doubt as to the motive that prompted the girl to the double tragedy. She was overcome with depression at the prospect of having to care indefinitely for the tiny cripple.

w. G. T. u. COLUMN.
The following papers by members
of the Barton union were read at the
county convention at Coventry:
WHAT EFFECT HAS THE SALOON
ON TAXES?

Where does the tax come in? At
the sale, and not a drop can be de-
l:vered until ninety cents per gallon
is paid to the district collector. The
distiller gets about twenty cents
gallon; from which he must pay all
bis expenses, and get all his profit.
Whoever touches the business in any
way other than laborer gets rich.
There is one phase | should like to
have ventilated: The idea of abolish
ing the tax. Liquor men acdnt the
tax, or some tax. There is proposed
bill said to come with their approval
making it S1.25. The payment of a
tax to the government secures the
protection of that government, pre-
cisely as the receipt of rent for prop
erty obligates the owner to protect
the tenant Remove the government
protection and the traffic becomes
breach of the law and can be fought
on it's merits, like theft and murder.
Imagine a band of thieves paying
5000 year to the state for permission
to steal! Their license though but
permission to steal would have the
practical force of authority, because
no inferior court could take it away.
The entire tax income from all
sources is about s35O,OoO, 900, of which
the liquor traffic furnishes about
500 900, OOO-two seventies, over one
fourth, of the total amount. 1t takes
about S5,OO0,OO0 to pay the wages OF
the 5000 men who serve as collectors,
storekeepers etc.
In general I believe that the re-
moval of government protection
would almost imm ediately be followed
by prohibition in many places, and
that very soon the necessity for ap-
propriations would diminish enough
to more than overbalance the falling
off of the income.
There are hundreds of thousands OF
places all through the country, out,
side of cities. where a majority are
opposed to the saloons, but cannot
prevent their existence because OF
the legal support. In the near future
when the best people are prohibition
lists, and the traffic melts away, there
will be restored to ways of usefulness
an army Of half million now engaged
as bartenders, drivers etc., and
large army of drunkards and mod
crate drinkers; SO that the nationa
, income from ordinary taxes will b.
greater, while the expenses will b'
less. and the result will soon be
lowering of the tax rates, with in
crease of prosperity,-not to mentor
/. the trife of honors restored an
, hearts renewed.

WHAT EFFECT HAS THE SALOON
ON BUSINESS?

It is strange that in the richest |
country in the world the cry of hard
times is so general. Over production
is given as the cause; under con-
sumption, however, is the more
accurate reason. If the peoples
money were spent for stapl9 and
honest production it would set the
forces of factories and farms and
commerce so actively at work that
labor and capital would breathe
freer. This under-consumption has
it's root in the expenditure of the
masses for intoxicants. The subject
is one of so much Importance and
financial proportions that all involved
in both tariff and silver questions
combined does not equal one-fourth
of this every year. Drop the stu
pendous sum of the nations liquor
bill from the amount that should be
coursing through healthy channels OF
commercial and industrial operations
and you will see what is the chlef
cause of stagnation in the legitimate
and equitable business of the country.
One speaking in regard to our in
dustrial community says: "In my
iudgm ent, after having seen the mo
saloon feature tried for 10 years, i
am more than persuaded that II
would be decided mistake to allow
the saloon to come into our midst.

people are exclaiming over the situs-
ton. Probably all experiments for
reducing expenses will be tried before
the chief trouble, the SALOON, is at
tackled. "Less income from saloons
means less outgo for the police
courts, and less money expended in
boarding prisoners in jails and pau
pers in almshouses."
From a bushel of corn the dis.
tiller gets four gallons of whisky
which retails at 1850. The farmer
gets 25 cents. The United States
government gets s4 40. The railroad
company gets 81. The manufacturer
gets S4. The drayman gets Is cents.
The retailer gets 81. The customer
gets drunk. The wife gets hunger
and abuse. The children get rags
