 We arc glad to have been able to give Judge Robertson tho very oppor tunity he wanted 10 declare himself in respect to 2 public utilities commission. He says that he wants one-wth d but The ibut" is good one. He wants a comuiission but one composed of competent men who will do right not q political clique Of course that IS what we an want The stronger, wiser, and better informed the commission is the better work t will do. the more it can be trusted Mr Lilley has de. clnled himself for a commission with out qualification. We expect he will soon declare his views as to how the commission should be composed, lIe Is sure 10 get the advantage in contrast with the declaration which Joudge Rob ettson has mace, because he made his fr.t and because he pushes it as an issue spontaneously while Judge Rou ertsou seems as yet to take it up only because 1t cannot be avoided, There is yct plenty of time and we expect, as the Idea develops in his mind, the lat ter will make a stronger and more definite declaration than this, which l1 good, SO far aa t goes.

A SYMPHONY ANNIvERs sAnY.

Tho New Haven symphony orches- tra has come to he very near to tho hearts of those who compose musical New Haven, and as musical New Ha- ven includes no small part of the city few there arc who are not familiar with what the orchestra has accom- plishod and who are not willing to give it that praise which fl so fitting ly deserves
 With this fall the orchestra rounds out fifteen years of it's existence. Dur ing those years it has not always oc- cupied the promnsnt position in the city's life which 1t does to-day by any means The orchestra has had It's ups and downs as have most organizations. It deserved the more praise for having Weathcrcd the storm of musical crit icism in the fashion it has. In com memoration of this fifteenth anniver- sary 1t is now planned that the or cheetra execute a special program of unusual musical treats on the first of next month No more appropriate way of celebrating decade and a half of musical success could be sue gestad and it is certain that those gentlemen who have given so much of their energies to the success of the orchestra will feel well repaid by re- cetvlng the unqualified and deserved endorse ment of musical New Haven on that occasion.

THE ACTUAL FACTS,

An indignant subscriber writes ug protesting against our treatment of Mir Inay in connection with tho aub- marine Investigation He charges that the report of Che committee was malignant and usly in spirit He calls our attention to the alleged fact that MT tilley called for the books of the offending electric boat company and the committee denied his request
 As we have said before, it is a matt ter of taste whether the report of the committee was written in too harsh e spirit or not we have had no doubt that had 1t been written in less vlgor- oua English it would have deprived his friends of tho one chance they now have of conforming 1t, though 1t Ia doubtful if they would have any more read It then than they appear to have have done now Judge Freeman of Hartford argues that it is not the re- port that is harsh but the conduct which provoked, .t, and he, is lawyer of first rate ability, It appears to be overlooked by the supporters of Mir. Lllley, as a careful reading Of the evi- dence will show, that he failed to pro- duce any evidence whatever of wrong doing. On the contrary he swore that his only evidence was "hearsay" and newspaper clippings" promulgated by a rival boat company in whose interest Mir 1illey hoped to get reversal of the law, and whose attorney and agent suggested and drew up the charges used and presented to the Investigating committee as his own The committee told the truth as developed hy the eyi- deGce and it seems ugly 10 him and his friends but it is a very bad record on which to found a nomination for gov ernor in the judgment of every ono else.
 The second point made by our oorre- spondent. that the committee refused to call the books of the offending boat company is also hy the evidence false The committee did on request Of Mr Ltlley call upon tho officers of the boat company 10 produce their books They declined under the fourth section of the constitution of the United States to produce them. on the ground that no evidence of wrong doing had been shown by NIT Lilley and very proper ly they refused to open the books as every private corporation has the legal right to do. Mir Lilley was also called upon to produce his letter books, show ing the forged and anonymous letters which haG been sent out from his of fee and from the office of the opposi- ton boat company. He, too, refused under advice of counsel. citing the fourth section of the constitution of the United States for protection.
 If our correspondent will look up Mir Lilley's record he will not complain of our treatment of him, but will leordial-
 y thank us for our opposition.
