Senator Crittenden of this district
is among those who spoke against the
measure, basing his opposition on the
ground that the farmers have to pay
this tax, and that he is opposed to
any such class legislation.
While the refusal of the senate to
adverse the report of the committee
does not technically dispose of the
bill, the final vote coming on the
motion to adopt the report, the test
vote shows how the senators stand,
and as there seems no probability of
their reversing themselves the bill
is, to all practical purposes, a dead
letter

The Schools Must Close.

Unless some other means of sup
porting the schools is provided-and
their most enthusiastic friends can
see none at present-the schools will
have to close their doors. The dis
trict schools were built by the cOun-
ties in which they are located on the
pledge of the state to support them.
II they do not open this fall thew
will lose the faculties they have en-
ployed, and whenever the state does
provide for their support the work
OF organizing them will have to be
done over again.
This is the situation which now ex-
lists. Despite the pleas of the friends
of the school, the strong support of
Governor Smith, and pressure from
many other sources, the senate has
said that the schools shall not be
supported by this tax.
The bill was fought on the idea
that it imposed a special tax on the
farmer.
Senators opposing the bill declared
themselves willing to provide for the
schools in some other manner
chairman Murphy Gambler of the
house appropriation committee, in
statement issued a week ago. de-
clared that the limit had already
been reached in appropriations and
produced figures to show that with

be enlarged the traffic along it's suburban lines
increases. As originally planned. the northerly end
OF fits electric zone was to be at Port Chester a
distance of 25S miles north OF this city, but that
scheme was changed TO make the most north

LAND DEVELOPERS IN DISTRICT.
To the speculative developer of land this fine
suburban district of this city has long been at

fore the New Haven Railroad announced its plans
for improving its suburban lines by changing the
motor power from steam to electricity, and thereby
lessening the running time of trains between vari-
Gus suburban towns and this city. That branch OF
the electric system of the railroad between the
Grand Central Station and Stamford. Conn. is al
