STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.
Matters Discussed at Quarterly Meet
 ing of Members.


 The state board of health held its quarterly meeting at the Capitoi Tuesday evening, all the members being present but Dr A. w. Philips of Derby; reports were made regard ing the work done during the past quarter. Secretary J. H. Townsend reported hearing given in Nortn Haven on a garbage matter, visil to New Britain regarding case or smallpox there, and visit to Sayln Rock made for :, the purpose of sug-, gesting Improvements in the matter of sanitation.
 T. H. Mckenzie reported an ex- animation of a spring in Whittemore park, Willimantic. Persons in the vicinity had feared that the water | was contaminated, owing to the es- tabishment of cemetery nearby. l MT Mckenzie found that there was little danger, but suggested that as those interested could buy the ceme- tery land for $260, it might be ad- | visable to make the purchase for sen timental reasons.
 | work done in the laboratory during the past quarter, saying that the work | in examining sources of milk supply | had convinced him that the small | towns stood in need of supervision as much as did the cities. This matter was discussed at length, Prof Conn suggesting that a pamphlet on the subject should be prepared and sent l to the health officers of the towns. Prof Conn and Secretary Townsend were instructed to prepare the pamphlet and see to it's distribution J. H. Newlands of the laboratory said that his work had doubled during the quarter because of the examination of school wells and sources of municipal water supply.
 The question of sanitary inspec- tion of summer resorts was brought up and George c. Ham of Naugatuck who acted as inspector last year, will do the same work this summer, begin ming within a few weeks. Secretary Townsend called attention to the fact that an international tuberculosis congress will be held in Washington next September. He read letter tc the board from Governor Woodruff expressing a desire that the state board of health should cooperate with other departments in making an exhibit. Secretary Townsend was au, thorized to act in the matter.
 At prior meeting of the board the question of making thorough exami, nation of the shores of Snipsic lake and the streams that flow into the lake was brought up. as the city oi Rockville gets it's water supply iron the lake. It was, however, impossible to make a satisfactory examination during the winter and 1t was agreed to do it as soon as possible. When the examination is made a special meeting of the board will be held tc consider it.

H. F. Baldwin,, ]. W. Rogers, Mrs A. c. Futile, Mrs F. B. Futile and Mrs F. H. Judd This committee will sub- init plans and estimates of the new parish house at the meeting which will be held May 27 and it is thought that the work of erecting the new house will be started soon after that date.
 Dog owners continue to rush to the town clerks office to get their pets registered and up to last night about 800 licenses had been issued. Last year the total number was I'll and to-day being the last day allowed by law for registering without an addi- tional dollar being charged against the delinquent owner. Town Clerk Hearns was in his office until d late hour last night so as to give an op- portunity to all to comply with the law and will be there again tonight and remain as long as there is any business to be done.
 Although election day is only two days distant, one would hardly think that such was the case, as there seems to be very little activity shown by the candidates of either | party, and while the work that is be- ing done may not show itself on the surface it is more than likely that a quiet campaign is being conduc-- | ed. The two candidates for warden are men of exceptionally rare per | sonalities and each has made friends in the other party and for this req son it is expected that party lines will count for naught. When il comes to making a choice between the two candidates the same is. also true with regard to the candidates for tax collector, but as. there will be large vote boiled this year on account of the license question and as this town is democratic by about
 200, the leader of the democratic party anticipates victory for the entire ticket. |

Hands Were Tender.

Hartford, May 1.-During the re- cent grading bee at the First Con gregational church some of the parishioners, rather than blister their hands, furnished funds to pay for substitutes and number of Italian laborers were hired to assist in the work. They worked over time on Tuesday and the commit tee expected to pay them for 1t, but when the time came for settling up, a leader among the hired help asked a number of questions as to how much the other diggers were getting. When he was told that they received nothing, but did the work for the church, he returned to his companions and council was held over the pay for overtime. They came to a unanimous decision and sent their leader back with the in- formation that they wished to give their overtime to the church and would accept only their days pay.

oOme POpul1St plankS which the president
recommends are the establishment of Postals
Savings banks; the establishment of a Parcels
Post, and inheritance tax, which is very
close kin to an income tax.
The postal savings bank and the parcels
post IN connection with the rural free delivery,
are two reforms which have been advocated
BY the Populsts for years, and they will be
found in the Populist platforms as far back as
the COS.
The President also urges new currency
system that will remove existing evils, and a
comprehensive and adequate employers liza
bility act.
If the President had studied the Populist
platforms more carefully, he would have found
what he wanted as easily as he found the advo-
cacy of the postal savings bank and the parcels
post
Other important legislation recommended is
as follows:
The government control of all agencies Of in
terstate commerce.
The repeal of the imperfect Sherman anti
trust law and the enactment Of better law
instead.
Short time franchises to corporations, and
supervision of the issuing Of securities in order
to prevent watering of stock.
Government control and strict supervision
of railroad, telegraph and telephone lines.
Laws to prevent long delays in the final de-
often makes it impossible for the poor man to
get his rights against the rich man
A law giving Congress the right to review
decisions of federal Judges Of inferior courts.
The improving of inland water ways at
once.
The prohibition of child labor, the decrease
of women laborers, and the shortening of the
hours Of labor.
All of which border on Populism.
Following close upon the Presidents order
placing over 1900 fourth class postmaSters
under civil service rules comes the announce
ment that $4,000 more fourth class postmasters
in the South and West will be put in the CLASH
fed service, and about 10000 men i'll the Treas
ury Department and the Department of Tus-
March f.
This 10000 will include practically all depu-
ty y. S. Marshals, all deputy Collectors of
Customs, and deputy Surveyors.
It is needless to say that the politicians, es
pecially the Congressman are panic stricken,
for it takes from them the patronage of 10000
machine cogs
That Congress is planning a sharp rebuke
for President Roosevelt, is the latest from
Washington, and all because Of the following:
Washington, Dec. Io-Senators ana Repre-
sentatives are greatly incensed over President
Roosevelts insinuation in his message that
Congress was corrupt and feared investiga
ton, and all sorts of rumOrs are afOat today
of plans to rebuke the nations executive.
The President virtually declared that Con-
gressmen had restricted the operations of the
Government Secret Service because they did
not themselves wish to be investigated
It is pretty we'll agreed among the leaders,

in poverty and ignorance in every state of this
Union?
The American dollar that goes abroad to buy
food, raiment, fuel, medicine and school books
for the children of heather peoples is dollar
that is mis-appled. Every American dollar
that is sent abroad to educate heather children,
is a dollar that goes astray.
Had we surplus of money, AFTER minis
tering to the wants Of OUR poor, it would be
noby applied were it sent abroad for Charity's
sake.
Had we no hungry, ill-clad, and ignorant
children in Our sluns, in our mills, in Our
fields, in Our mountain cabins, it would be
Christian duty to extend Our benevolence to
the hungry and ignorant children of the hea-
then.
But we know that our own poor are starv
ing in every one of Our great cities We know
that tens of thousands of our boys and girls
are growing up in ignorance. Their parents
are poor and can't send them to school. De-
cent clothing and Trust-priced school-books
are out of their reach. Besides, autocratic
school-boards have made rules which violate
the letter and the spirit of our public school
laws, and which shut out poor children from
the benefits intended for them.
Ambitious boys and girls,-our own flesh
and blood-yearn for collegiate advantages.
Poverty denies them the blessings they crave.
But eloquent preachers excite unthinking
congregations on the text Of winning the
world for Christ" and we give to the heather
children that which we deny to our own.
1t may be good thing to take seven hun
dred dollars from the common people of
America and appropriate it to the binding of
one Bible in gold as a gift to the Emperor of
China,-but we doubt it.
It may be a good thing to drain off the
Of thic country into heather lands to
maintain commissaries and elaborate school
systems, but we doubt it.
It seems to us that we have heard some
where or other, a text, to this effect: He that
provideth not for his own household is worse
than an infdel.
If this is sound gospel for an individual, why
isn't it sound gospel for nation?

stand that Congress does not intend to sit idly

it is full of corruption and feared the light
The House at least intends to strike back.
The plan will probably be ready for execution
today.
Demand Action.
Champ Clark, the new Democratic leader in
the House, and Swager Sherley, of Kentucky,
one of the foremost men of the Democratic
side went to the Republican leaders and told
them fatty that the Democratic membership
did not purpose to permit the Presidents re-
Elections on Congress to pass unnotced.
From that time on there were conferences,
in which most of the big men on both sides Of
the House participated, among them, in add-
ton to Clark and Sherley, being Serene E.
Payne, John Dalze1l and James A. Tawney, the
Republican floor leaders.
The Democratic leaders told the Republican
leaders that they regarded it as preferable to
remove whatever action was decided on from
any tinge of partisanship, and for that reason
they were anxious to bring about agree
ment between both parties in the chamber SO
that solid front might be presented in show
ing resentment of Mr.. Roosevelts attitude
The very idea of the President insulating
that Congress is corrupt!
Yes, we hope Congress will demand an apol-
ogy.
it and will get into row with Congress about
it.
And we hope the row will end up with
thorough investigation
If it does, there will hardly be quorum left
in either the Senate or House of Representa-
tives, for the people will then learn what kind
of representatives they have at Washington.
Organized labor promises to make things
interesting for the Democrats in Indiana.
Claiming that it elected Marshall, the Demo
crat governor, and gave the Democrats con-
troll of the legislature, it demands that radical
laws in favor of organized labor be enacted
The Democratic leaders are squirming, but
the labor leaders are insisting that the legis-
1ature live up to the agreement and limit the
issuance of Injunction by the state courts; that
banks other institutions where union labor
funds are deposited insure the unions against
loss, and that employers be made liable for in
juries received by employees.
Good for union labor
Make them keep. their promises, or vote
against them next time
If the farmers would follow this example,
the country would be in much better fix four
years from now than it has been since the be-
ginning of the Civil War
If the farmer would make his representative
live up to his promises as the 1aborers are do
ing in Indiana, what change there would
soon be.
In a few years he would have laws which
would give him chance to make something
for himself.
In a few years he would control the trusts
that now control and rob him.
It is strange that the farmer cannot see that
he has the power to free himself if he will only
