ADVISED TO REFUSE.
Lawyers Tell Claimants for Damages
 to Go to Court.

Those who received from the rail road company an offer of $4,000 in settlement of death claims arising out of the trolley disaster at the West Main street crossing have been advised by their lawyers to refuse it.. The lawyers say that for those minors who were killed the railroad company can be held responsible for what they would in all likeli- hood earn up to their majority, be- sides the usual damages for death. Furthermore, they say that any law yer would charge no more than a few hundred dollars for his services in court and that as verdict for full damages would be a sure thing, the claimant would thereby receive not less than S4,500 anyway, which would be $500 more than the com pany has offered. It looks therefore as if there will be series of law suits or a test made of one case.

ELEVATOR FELL.
Two Men Went With It But Escaped
 Cnhurt.

Last evening about 7:30 the ele- vator at the plant of the Mattatuck Manufacturing Co took a drop and went to the cellar from the second floor like a flash On it at the time were Charles Norton, the night watchman, and Paul Hesfeldt. The elevator had almost reached the top when without warning something broke and down it went despite the effort made to stop it. It struck the cement floor in the cellar with a bang. The men were jostled con- siderably and hesfeldt received a bad bruise on the head, but other wise they escaped unhurt. The ele- vatOr was put completely out of business and workmen were busy all day repairing it.

Leap Year

is now in full blast and it's going to continue until the last minute of De- cember 31. Leap year means whole lot to large number of peo- pie, For instance there are quite a few politicians, yes and whole lot of would-be politicians, who are com- pelled to take Heap" out of a sort of a trance. In other words they were dead sure of securing certain jobs, positions on public boards, etc, but there were not enough places, so the ones who were surest must take the "leap" Of course the head 'boss" don't tell them where to Heap" to simply because he doesn tell his mind to anybody. But as far as get ting anything out of the premises is concerned they might as well Heap" to Union City and sell matches because they're done up for two years and when election day comes again, they'll get the same toboggan slide or else take anothe" "leap.' Be that as it may, let us hope that people who have never purchased any tea or cof- fee from US will take advantage this year and take a leap out of that inconscionable idea that they can get just as good tea or coffee in any store as they can buy at our store. No sir-ree, your mistaken, we sell the best quality in the city for the price you pay and all We ask is one trial This week we give large, handsome cracker jar with each pound of our +o1 hn1r ino cents per pound at

JOHNSON AT SHILOH
MINNESOTA EXECUTIVE MAKES
 NOTABLE ADDRESS.
QUESTION OF STATE RIGHTS
Ccss Net Approve of commonwea aiths Being Made subservient to h. fericr Federal courts-Wou!d
 Uphold Constitution.

Gov. John A. Johnson of Minnesota delivered at the dedication of the Min nesota monument on Shiloh battle ne4d April 10, an address that will rank as one of the ablest public de- 1tyerances of recent times. Spoken on a battlefield that may be taken as the symbol of the great war for the union, the governor took occasion to tell of the peril that threatens our fed erai form of goyernmen. This peril was emphasized by the recent deci- sion of the supreme court in the rail. way cases going up from Minnesota and North Carolina, which practi- caAly makes the state governments subservient to the inferior federal courts The significance of these de- cisions Is widely understood. and they have given rise to general discus sion of the question of the rights of the states, and Gov. Johnson's speech will rank as an important eontribu- ton to that discussion. The dedica- tory address in part follows;
 Representing the people of the com monwealth of Minnesota. we are as sembled Oil one of the historic battle fields of the civil war to pay our trib- ute of respect and affection to the memory of the sons of Minnesota who here yielded up their lives that this might continue to be a united na- tion. Their sacrifice was not for per sonal gain, but was in response to duty, and a contribution to the civ dlization Of the age. and for the pur- pose of perpetuating the institution of human liberty.
 I appreciate that nothing which can say will add to or detract from the glory of their achievement, which in itself is an enduring monument to the patriotism and heroism of the American soldier. Their sacrifice. however. was not different from that which has been made throughout all of the ages by those lovers of liberty who believe in a government which might give to all the people the right to life, liberty and property. The love of liberty was not born in this country of ours; it was cradled along the Danube and about the shores of the Baltic, even when Rome had reached the limit of her imperial grandeur. Increasing in intensity with the passing of the centuries. 1t found it's highest expression in. the older countries in the great English charter of civil rights, which forever guaranteed to the people of that land Immunity from the despotism of those
