AN APPEAL TO REssoN.

The close of the political campaign in the state of Connecticut, so far as 1t relates to the candidacy of George L. Lllley of Waterbury for governor, is characterized by deliberate men dacity and characteristic untruthful- mess, We had hoped to end our con side alton of his unftncss for public office in our Saturdays issue, but things have been done since that time, and assertions nave been made which deny us an escape from what from the first has been disagreeable task but one which the cause of good gov ernment has demanded should he un- dertaken with resolution and deter mination

The complimentary words which were spoken conyentjonally to MT Lilley by President Roosevelt, and which are now dishonesty being cir culated among the voters as q recent and voluntary endorsement of his cam didacy were spoken last April and had reference to a speech made in congress by MT. Lilley upon the sub jcct of naval extrayagances It Is inconceivable that dupliclty could be carried to more reckless limits, and it Is further inconceiyable that the vot- CTS of Connecticut under the circum- stances will elect him governor
 Various other falsehoods The LilIey managers, with the approval and as- sent of MT, Lilley himself, have cir culated leaflets in which 1t Is asserted that as a member of congress he voted" for the various bills and reso- lutions in which organized labor is in- terested and for the meat inspection bill A careful examination of the Congressional Record shows that in some cases where he said ho voted hc Is recorded as not voting or absent IL Is impossible for him to prove by the Record that he voted for the meat in- spectIon bill though 1t is fair In view of his general record, 10 believe that he did not, since hls prosperity flows from his connection with the beef trust, the meanest trust in existence, MT Llley again fell into untruth when he declared that he had studied the report and recommendations of the commission, appointed by the general assembly to inquire into public service corporations with the view of enactine

mination
 Falsehood number one: There has appeared in other newspapers and in this mornings issue of The Journal Courier an advertisement prepared by the Lilley management, and of course with the approval of MT Lilley him self, in which it Is asserted that the attitude of the editor of this newspa- per was changed from one of faith in the truth of his charges in the sub marine boat scandal to one of crit icsm because This stockholders com pelled him to turn his batteries on Mir Lilley." A reference to our advertis- ing columns will inform the reader in detail as to the nature of the asser- ton. There is not one word of truth fin the assertion. Neither the stock holders nor the directors of The Jour nal-Courler have interfered in any way whatever with the editorial con duct of this newspaper, nor was their opinion asked when the campaign against Mir Lilley was begun. The reason why The Journal Courier has been persistent and severe with Mir. Lilley is because of conversation had with Mir Lilley early in July, which he may or may not recall but which ia painfully alive in our memory It was the revelation of his own charac- ter in the course of the brief conver- saton that lent 8 new meaning to his Washington conduct, and established forever the conviction in our mInd that he is tempersmentally united to hold, in the shape of an office, q brief for the people of Connecticut. As for the change in the attitude of The Journal Courier. which antedated the conversation 10 which we allude, that was forced by the establishment of the fact that MT Lilley was wholly without facts to support his original charges, though until the close of the investigation we had supposed, with practically all the people of the state, as far as we knew, that he, Of course knew exactly what he was talking sbout A subsequent careful reading Of the report itself reinforced by ire queat and elaborate references to the evidence, left on our mind no shadow of doubt of his political recklessness and of his mental control by what may be most fttngly described as "the gamblers instinct The one in. huence to which can trutnfully be at- tributed the attitude of The Journal. Courier, both before the investigation closed and after, is the character shifty and evasive of George L, Lilley

MISS LOUISA D. HoRSLEY.

She Nominated Secretary Taft For
President Thirty eight Years Ago.
If William II. Taft should ever be
nominated and elected president Of the
United states. there is in Cincinnati a
quiet. inconspicuous little woman who.
although she has been a wage Garner
for nearly twOscore years. would in all
probability figure as the unofficial
guest of honor at the inaugural ball
and all other attendant festivities. The
little woman is Miss Louisa d. Hors-
ley, an old schoolteacher of William II.
Taft, who nominated him for president
thirty-eight years ago. Next month
Miss Horsley will celebrate her for
tieth anniversary as a teacher In the
Cincinnati public schools.
It was about thirty-eight years ago

bursed.
That needy families Of the city may
be supplied with free ice water, the
Army has placed a water barrel in

Work as Punishmant.

Unless a mother wants TO heap up
trouble for herself and the child now
and later on 1t is better never to pun
ish by making the culprlt perform a
certain amount OF work, says Hilda
Richmond In the Housekeeper. There
are mothers who keep certain disagree
able tasks for little sinners, just as
some cities compel their offenders
against public peace TO repair roads or
break stone. This Is risky business,
since It gives the child the impression
that It is misfortune TO have 70 work.
A grown man says he hates the very
sight Of an onion bed because his
mother made Aim weed the tiny plants
every time he was naughty when he
was a child. Onion wedding Is tedious,
back breaking work at best, but when
1t Is done as a punishment It becomes
horrible. A bright penny, a special
treat In the way Of a big orange or a
trip TO the pond to fish would have sent
the boy whistling TO the onion bed de-
termined TO conquer or die, but to be
chained there, so TO speak, with a
smartlng sense Of his woes makes him
recall those days yet
Some mothers put the little girls to

It In the wastebaslfet the minute she

children only turned out good work In
order TO be released.
Solitary idleness IS better than work
as punishment. Often when left tc
