UP TO NEW LONDON.
Proposition Made by Railroad to Take
Over Big Bridge.

New London, Aug. Alt probably
will be possible within a few years to
drive across the present Thames river
drawbridge TO Groton from New Lon
don, according to an announcement
made last night at the council meeting
by Mayor Armstrong. The only con-
dltlon is the acceptance of the bridge
by the city or state from the New York.
New Haven and Hartford railroad.
The proposition of the New Haven
road, through President Mellen, as In
terpreted by the mayor Is In brief as
follows The present bridge Is no long
er capable of withstandlng the heavy
must be built across the Thames The
old bridge is, however, quite strong
enough to stand trolley, team. automo-
bile and foot travel. To tear down
the present bridge would necessitate a
heavier expense than the New Haven
road wishes TO meet, Therefore, mas
much as II will be TO the mutual adj
vantage OF the New Haven road and the
city Of New London to leave the bridge
standing the New Haven offers the
bridge 10 the city Of New London, re-
serving only the right to operate q
single track trolley over the bridge
At last nights meeting It was voted
that committee of three be appointed
by Mayor Armstrong to take steps to
see II the next assembly Will accept
the bridge, II the assembly does not
vote to accept the bridge, then 1t IS
suggesled that the city take II.

"When Knighthood Was In Flower" u
Splendid Offering.


Splendid Offering.
This weeks big production of the
Poll stock Co. is when Knighthoad
Was in Flower with Miss Edna A.
Crawford as Mary Tudor and as the
leading lady has the real leading part
the performance may be Justly called
a personal triumph for Miss Crawford.
The large sized audiences yesterday az
ternoon and evening fairly stormed
over the magnificent work of Miss
Crawford as the English actress. Mr..
Mitchell, as Charles Brandon ably sec
onded the efforts of Miss Crawford In
fact the pair were admirably mated
and called forth round after round of
applause
Miss Crawford was accorded several
personal curtain calls and deserved ev-
cry one of them The bedroom scenes
were strikingly realistic, and the quiet
humor and tempestuous temper of
Mary Tudor were ably enacted by NJ So
Crawford.
Tho entire cast deserves a combined
word of praise for very painstaking
and elaborate performance of Julia

Der of persons helped make the tree

OF CONCERN TO KISSERS.

DR.. Clara Scott is from Philadel-
phia. proverbially slow town. n
firmly believe" says this woman
wiseacre, that the day will come
when kissing will be confined to the
lower classes. the educated people
having been brought to see, the evils
of the habit" --- --s.,e-
Now, indiscriminate kissing is
wrong. For politicians to kiss babies
is bad on the patriots and can not be
grateful to the little innocents To
have to kiss ones mother-in-law
grand-aunt or school teacher, unless
she is very young and pretty and
one has begun to be a big boy, Is not
a pleasure. But there is kissing and
kissing. To give up kissing altogeth-
er is not at all bright idea RI ed
ucated people permit this ancient
and honorable custom to be "confin-
ed to the lower classes" then they
will have been educated in vain.

THE WAY TO PROFIT BY THE
PAST.

When you say good bye old year,
much is meant in the expression i?
Fruited with good and bad-much
more good than, perhaps, you were
entitled TO and no more bad than
you could bear-19oS is fast breath
ing its last. We know what the old
year has contained for it is nearly
passed into history, but what of the
new? To a certain extent we can in
fluence its treatment of us, but fate
holds that in store which human in
fluence and ingenuity can not
cha ge. We owe it to ourselves and
10 those who are most interested in
us to at all times do the best we can,
. but haye~we done the best we could?
STAKE stock honestly and act accord
ingly Contentment may be posi-
billy but We do not understand how
athe human can reach it. Ambition
spurs us continually ON and accom-
plishment calls for more accom-
plishment. If We have done some
good in 1908 let US do more good in
500 II. during the old year, our
lives have given happiness to others
let US make those lives fruitful OF
more happiness during the new
year. The limit of possibility has not
been reached. We can do more and
it is our duty to do it. And what IL
true of the individual is equally true
of the town, for the town is but the
ssgency for we'll doing citizenship.
Let's push or-all We are worth, Civ
ing our support to those things
which promise general benefit. What
we have failed in doing for our town
in 1908 we should now resolve to do
in 1909. Begin with the sidewalk
an individual responsibiity-an go
on 10 improved streets--a call for
general help. There is much for the
individual to do and more to be done
that calls for the, cooperative
strength of the whole citizenship.

General sentiment is correctly eX-
pressed in the following excerpt from
the Dallas News: There are in Tex
as thousands of Italian citizens
whose hearts have been touched by
the sad news from the old country
There are other thousands of Tex
ans, who are not Italians. whose
sympathy has been aroused by the
sad story Of destruction and death
There are indeed few, if any, who
have not been stunned and deeply
touched by the awful message that
dead may number 200, 900" If the
dead nearly number 200 900. there
must be even more of the wounded
the homeless, the helpless and the
hopeless. 1t comes to all of us Us one
of the worlds most appalling dsas-
tiers. 1t demands the sympathy of
every heart and the help of every
hand. That common brotherhood
which holds humanity together is
quite sufficient, but there are some
special reasons why Texas should be
moved by the misfortunes of these
comrades of the sunny land across
the sea -

INVESTMENTS IN CIV

Under the above heading the Kan
sas City Times gives voice to the FOL
lowing, which applies with equal
force to Texas:
For good roads and canals the
state of New York has issued bonds
for ISL millions dollars. The City OF
New York is engaged in water
supply work of $50 1jllions. The
state of Illinois voted millions OF
bonds for strip Of y way in the
Lakes-to-the-Gulf
These are the chief of state ac-
tivities that come to mind as show
ing the wider viewpoint of the peo-
pie everywhere concerning necessary
public improvements. The states of
Kansas and Missouri should get
quickly into line with this policy.
All such expenditures are invest
ments that any sensible man would
make with his private property if
he had great state for a domain.
These investments-go good roads,
waterways and the like-are ire
mendous profit makers. The states
that have them will grow far away
from those that peg away at simply
saving taxes.

COMMON SENSE.

II seems to us that the following
from the Lawrence Gazette is plain
common sense: When men who
have grown to be biIlionaires, veal
thier than any before ever dreamed
of, and, when they say their wealth
was derived from the tariff on GER
tain things, then il is time to cut
off that. II is true that. while these
men have been piling up uncounted
millions, they have given work TO
laboring men. They have given more
work and better wages than the
same men in the same trades could
have secured in any country on
earth. But the products their labor
put on the markets have been sold
at an immense profit and the con-
sumers had to pay that profit, and
1t has gone into the pockets OF Car
negie. and Rockefeller, and Archi-
bold and the Thaws, and it has gone
to enrich and rebuild the fortunes
OF tumDllng Dauper princes OF Eu-
rope, and. it has been sent to the
eastern s6untries and ignorant hands
that had never earned dollar Of it.
The tariff was the greatest thing.
and the best thing that America ever
devised, But there is limit to It,
and that limit is reached when 1t
Expresses the country instead of en-
riching 1t. We pay millions a year to
enrich the sugar trusts; cut out the
tariff on sugar. We pay more for
iron and steel products than Europe
pays; cut out the tariff on iron and
steel. We pay tribute to the lumber
trust whenever we buy sheet of
paper or a shingle; cut out the tariff
on lumber We are merely mpover-
ishing ourselves for the benefit of
millionaires when we place a duty
on these and hundred other
things. We vote ourselves poor, and
vote them wealthy when we vote
tariff for them. Whatever trade,
whatever industry, whatever manu-
facturer will be built up and grow
when it does not exist now, if tar
if will help it, give it tariff But
let us abandon the idea that the tar
if is a sacred thing"
