AMBASSADOR TO ENGLAND.

1t is not likely that President Eliot
of Harvard university viii be appoint
ed as ambassador to the court Of St.
James,. on account of his age. although
the fitness of the appointment Is wide
ly recognized: and there would be no
complaint should It be offered and he
felt equal to assuming the duties, for
this country really needs a different
type Of man for ambassadors to Offset
the wrong impression Of America and
Americans caused by the lavish ex-
penditure Of money and the giving of
princely entertainments by the use of
private wealth. A critic OF the con-
duct of these ambassadorships OF late
is right when he says: THE posi-
ton is too important to be filled by
man whose wealth is his chief claim.
It is also too exalted to be cheapened
by an ostentatiousness in entertain-
ment which lays itself open to the
charge of being vulgar. With Mr.. ELL
OF in the office. not only would former
republican simplicity be restored, but
with 1t the best traditions OF Ameri-
can patriotism and scholarship"

SUNFAY MORN ING 7 LIZ
HUMAN TYPES - THE MEILoRlsT

Midway between the optimist and
the pessimlst stands the melIorist
Did you ever hear OF him before7 If
not. take your Century dictionary and
look him UP. He is really a pretty
useful individual, even though he may
not be popularity recognized under the
designation, and he himself may hard
iy be aware Of his classification. Far
from being satisfied with the world
as ii Is, he does not dream OF some
distant Utopia. Content he is to strive
simply to better things. which is the
root idea Of the word meiiorist.
The motorists are sometimes called
half-a-loaf men. They will take the
hest they can get under the circum-
stances. They are sometimes looked
upon as compromlsers. But they do
not deserve any measure Of odiun, for
without them the world could hardly
get along at all If there were only
pessimists who despaired Of doing
anything. and optimists who aimed al
such fine distant things that they lost
power to take the slow, tedious steps
that finally carry one to the goal. the
world would be In a pretty fix. The
pessimists would be constantly throw
ing on their buckets of cold water. and
the optimists would be setting so many
impossible tasks that the ordinary
man would sink back into inertia and
Indifference.

A FEASIBLE PLAN

The plan to make the Connecticut
river more useful as a waterway to the
people of the territory 1t passes
through is a feasible scheme, and in
stead of being something new is really
a revival Of conditions which were ex-
istent but rendered Improbable half
century or more ago. Upon this sub
tect a Boston paper says:
Very few Of the present generation
realize to what an extent we depend
ed upon water carriage, even In our
own state, before railroads became so
generally developed. The movement
to open the Connecticut to longer nav
igation than is now possible is looked
upon as an entirely new enterprise and
ii is forgotten that once the PROPOSE
ton to tunnel through the mountains
was not for the purpose of running a
railroad but to accommodate a water
way to connect Boston with the Hud-
son.
''At a recent club meeting in Turn
ers Falls an interesting. historical
paper was read on Early Local Navi-
cation, describing the canal, which
was built and controlled by a COM
pany known as The proprietors of the
upper locks and canal on the Connec-
ticut river in the county OF Hamp-
shire. The canal began nearly at the
mouth of the Deerfield river at Nom
tague City. There were numerous
locks along its course. In 1881 the Con-
necticut River Steamboat company be-
gan business and established a through
line Of flatboats from Hartford. Conn,
to Wells River. VT These We're towed
by tugs.
Tn 1910 the business fell bff and
ten years later it went into a " tai de-
cline. In 1866 the Turner's Fails COM
pany purchased the rights Of the COM
panies that had carried on the busI-
ness. 1t is a renewal Of this under
modern conditions that the reopening
of the Connecticut to navigation would
mean"
