years ago. There have been two good reasons for this, During the period since their abandonment, the farm lands have been able to recuperate their productive qualities to n great extent, But more Important than that has been the fact that this second army of settlers have been willing and aple to subsist upon lower scale of living than our own countrymen, who years ago became disgusted with meagre pro- fits, pulled up stakes and, for the most part, went west. In the hands of our new citizens successful truck farms have been developing in increasing numbers and radiatlng at greater and greater distances from our Now Eng land cities.
 cuscd of the revolting killing of young Sheehan have been working such farm. One of them has already con fessed to his share in the killing and, at the present writing, 1t seems very certain that they will be convicted of taking a life, The more details arc | learned of their case, the more certain 1t becomes that these men and their | rnp, pa n iona haua haan ns m uuruIv class, indulglng in the vilest passions. Had the young girl not obtained aid by her outcries 1t seems quite probable that another unmentionablc crime would have followed. The situation be- comes the more alarming when 1t Is re- hected that this occurrence Is but q repetition of scores that have ended as fatally and of hundreds that have been unrecorded because they have not been fatal but which have been even moro loathsome Specific instances need not be mentioned.
 Our foreign born population can do  q great service for this country of their later choice if they can solve our aban- doned and unproductive farm problems for us, but If they are creating little hot-beds of lawlessnese about us, they are really doing no more than substl- tutlng a graver problem for the one lit had been hoped they were solving The farmer must necessarily live an isolated life. Tho law and order of his community he must largely create for himself There Is no class more peaceable and law-lovlng than the American-born farmer. Those of our farmers that are not Amerlcan-born must be the same or they will become n menace. It Is for the thoughtful among them to see the wisdom of such reasoning and to preach 1t among their kind much the same as Chicago ne- gro preacher now has started negro law and order league as result oi the Springfield outbreak, In the hopes of quelling the unruly negro element, The better class among our foreign born farmers may we'll promulgate a like sentiment with their brothers. It is a serious charge when peaceabe nelghbors say of an Italian farm. as ir the Sheehan case: Tt ought to be burned This is peaceful community out here, but 1t has got so we arc afraid to live in 1t with such place as that around"

AN ESTEEMED CONTEMPORARY.

! All newspapers are likely to fall into error That cannot be helped in fallible world, but there are nevertheless certain things newspa- per can easily avoid. One of them is out of town correspondence filled with manifestly manufactured news. In this connection the esteemed Hart ford Times has a second time been imposed upon. Last time 1t was through It's Waterbury correspondent, This time 1t is through It's New Ha- ven correspondent. Both writers knew when they were writing the stuff which the Times prints they were writing what Is not true.
 There has been no difficulty on tho part of those, who have any reason to know, learning how the Journal Courier came to print the immense edition containing MT. Palmer's pat rlotlc letter. There Is no reason that we recognize why those whose only obect in commenting upon the edition is to attach an unworthy significance to the fact should be voluntarily in- formed. Because an ordinary busi- ness transaction, such as has been had in every newspaper office in the country, has been had here is no req son why the suggestion should be printed that one Frank Healy of Hartford bartered with us for 1t. We have an idea that Mir. Healy would be the last of all mon to deal with the editor of this newspaper, whom he has no reason to like,
 Because MT. Palmer, who Is a gem tleman of excellent reputation in New London, felt impelled to write an in- dignant criticism opposing the nomi- nation of MT. Lilley is no Justification for a vulgar suggestion that he is q candidate for second place on Lake ticket He said in that letter that he was not a candidate for office and he has said so since, adding that he had not the pleasure of Mir Lakes ac- quaintance. Nor is there any excuse whatever for this assertion in the im- aginative letter the Times prints on its first page: Colonel osborn and | others tried hard to convince him ! (Horace D Taft of Watertown) that his duty to his brother lay along the l line of warning him how monstrous a pitfall lay in his path to the White house" by not protesting against the nomination of Mir. Lilley. The gen ! tleman referred to here has not seen Mir Taft, has made no attempt to reach him by mail or telephone or in any other way to communicate with him. On the other hand he has ad- vised others who are inclined to en- list the younger Tafts assistance not to do so for good and obvious reasons.
 These are but sample replies to the repeated charge made in the columns of this newspaper that George L. Lil- ley of Waterbury should not be nomi- hated for governor of Connecticut this year or any other year, a charge based upon a careful study of his public record and subscribed to by hundreds of republicans, We are
 however, sorry that any of our con temporaries thinks so poorly of us that it is willing to lend itself to a campaign of vicious misrepresentation That hurts. The articles themselves
 makes us grin.

MIR. VAN oLEAvE's DEBATE,

MH, VAN tLEANIFs DEuNII'
 lnatinctively we feel no uncertain feeling of repugnance that such man ns James w. Van Cleave should choose to participate actively in this or any political controversy so long as he Is president of the National Association of Manufacturers or q like organiza- tlon Business and laborlng men arc undoubtedly greatly concerned this and every year In tho results of our elec- tlons, but business mems associations and laboring mems unions arc essen- tially non-polltical and 1t Is not the province of their officials, whether they be Mir, Van Cleave or Mir. Gompens, to express political opinions and have them accorded more than ordinary sig nlfcance because of tho official station of their authors, Such officials have no right to suppose they are expressing the unanimous opinion of all their class. As officials they should place the situation before the latter and leave them to draw their own conclusions and vote accordingly,
 MT. Ven Cleave has insinuated his belief that MT. Bryan Is not sincere, which may be characterized by repub- licans and democrats alike as quite un- fair. Whatever else may be said of the host of Fairview this need not be said. Even at the very time of its bolt from Bryan and the democratic national par ty last week, the Baltimore Sun spoke in laudable terms of "the sincerity of Mir. Bryan" It is not to be supposed that q man who for third time has convinced his packers of his superiori- ty after two defeats has the elements of insincerity and 1t Is uncharitable to make such a charge.
 It may be, as Mir Van Cleave has contended, that tho injunction, tariff and banking blanks of the Denver platform assall the interests of every man in tho country engaged in any sort of trade. however sweeping such an assertion may appear. But by what right Mir. Van Cleave assumed the role of spokesman for all those business men, thousands of them not even mem. bers of his association, in personal clash with MT. Bryan, which, at best has led into more and more uncertain paths, is not apparent. When MT Com. pers assumed to hand over the labol vote to the democrats, there was ( strong feeling, later justified, that he had taken too much for granted. Mir Van Cleave, we believe, is largely right in what he says. but, as with Mir Gompers. the insinuation follows that he, too, is taking too much for granted The fight is not between MT Var Cleave, or even the National Associa' tion of Manufacturers, and Mir, Bryan but between those manufacturers of tn, country who see great evils in the Den yer platform and the democratic party Let others of them be heard from ant it is certain that the effect will bt greater with the mass of the voter than should lMr. Van Cleave continue his present tirades which only brinl him notoriety as an individual
