TAFT UNDER THE WHITE LIGHT.

Very much has been said about
Secretary Taft's splendid record Of
achievement in the public service,
and it certainly is a record which
will not only will stand analysis
but which becomes more and more
impressive the more it is subjected
to the searchlight. 1t is possibly
not fiawless record, but it is on,
with mighty few flaws in it. Nh
Taft has over and over again dem
onstrated his capacity for accom-
plishing results in Statecraft under
situations demanding most circum-
spect tact and discrimination. Ano
he has brought about conclusions
in the complexities which hay,
been assigned him for straighten-
ing out, not by compromise meth

propositions which he himself has
presented. La other words, Mr..
Taft has demonstrated that he ha

CRISIS NEAR AT HAND.
Fate of Irish Members in Commons
 at Stake.


 Dublin, Nov 14.-John B. Red mond, who Thursday night opened the campaign of the Irish members of the house of commons, admitted yesterday that the Irish party is fac ing one of the most serious crisis in it's history, on account of the low ebb of its finances. ..-
 The failure of the American finan- cial pilgrimage of Redmond and Jos eph Devlin has proved bitter disap- pointment and doubt Is now ex- pressed whether the present number of Irish members can long be main tained in the house of commons.
 Redmond and Devlin secured but s36.OO0 in America this year, while the total from that country has some times reached $1,000,000. The lead CTS realize that without American support the party could not hold its own for six months.
 They acknowledge that in the face of the present apathy they cannot support more than twenty members of parliament. Each member costs at least s1,500 and to support the quota of eighty requires, therefore s120,0O0. With its present resources the party can continue its present strength for another year. If fiuan cial support is not forthcoming at tht end of that time it must reduce It, representation by at least one-half There is no hope of funds from an, other source than America.

Labor disputes are in full swing all over England, says one writer, some involving hundreds of thou sands of people. Shipbuilding, at one time the backbone of certain North British towns, is patheticaliy stagnant. Vast hordes of workers connected with the building trades are walking about in idleness or being driven to theft, and the boot making centers of Kettering and Northampton are in more deplora- ble state than they have been for years past. Meanwhile taxes, all ready heavy, are on the increase, and the cost of such necessaries as flour, coal and meat is steadily rising. Sui cides are frequent, and robbery with violence is a growing alternative to starvation. The government, with it's old age pension and kindred schemes, is plunging the nation into further liabilities, and the black fu- I ture is an ominous mystery. Some economists are advising the authori. | ties to keep police and soldiery ir constant readiness for the hour oi
 their need may be imminent.

cantlle demand for money. The elec- tion of MT Taft has materially stimu- lated the rise, inasmuch as 1t re- moves an important uncertainty and assures the country a rest from un- necessary agitation. There seems to be almost universal satisfaction in the election of MT Taft and confidence in the belief that he will give the country a safe and sound administra- tion, Congress will open very short ly and tariff revision promises to be one of the prominent subjects of dis cussion both then and in a special session If such is called. But there is excellent reason for believing that no radical changes will be made, at least none that will seriously disturb American industry, since peace Is what the business world is likely to ask of the legislature, and that the politicians will probably be only toe ready to grant

Has anyone kept track of the num- Der of automobile accidents, where the victim was run down after alight' ing from a trolley car? We had at least one in Waterbury, two in Hart. ford the past few weeks, and one in New Haven night before last. Il does seem as though common sense would tell a man driving an auto te slow up when going by another ve' hicle of any description, whether il is trolley car or a moving van. Int law should compel an auto to come tt full stop when passing a trolley cal unloading passengers.
