Main street, our Town Council should
early decide to continue the blocks
down to Hamilton's Lane and finish
out both ends of said street with ma
cadam. This should be laid from
North street beyond Glenwood Gene
terry and from Hamilton's Lane to
Lake Como. When this is done the
repair to Commerce street and the
stoning of Mt. Vernon, South and
Delaware should be done. There
is no better time than now. while

The response of the country to
President Taft's Interpretation of
Republican duty is inspiring. We
have never doubted that the great
mass of the voters, Republican as
we'll as Democratic, would welcome
a change in the methods by which
recent tariffs have been made and
return to first principles in the appli-
cation of the protective policy. The
country has grown weary of the pro-
gramme followed in Congress
of allowing sectional and local inter
ests having the ear of Representa-
tives and Senators to frame lOg-roll-
ing meaure under whose provisions
each paid for taking what it could by
giving what the others asked. Unfair
and excessive protection was bound
to result from such an interchange
of courtesies, because protection was
often given without justification, and
the inflated demands of the less de-
serving claimants determined the
measure of assistance allotted to all.
The true aim of the protective system
was lost sight of in a scramble for the
distribution of favors among interests
convinced that they were entitled to
such favors independently of their
value in working, out a balanced
scheme of national development.
President Taft, with the true instinct
of national leadership has ranged
himself with the great mass of the
people who earnestly support the pro-
tective theory, but want to see il
nationally applied. The "stand-pat
tiers" in the House and the Senate
known tina they cannot make out {
case against him with the voters. The
President stands on higher GROUND
than the legislative leaders who have
been apportioning favors in order tt
hold a majority together. They have
failed to realize that they no longe
have the intelligence and moral in
fluence of the Republican party be
hind them. These forces have broker
with the old order and are demanding
a modernization of the schedules an
an adjustment of rates to cover diff
ferentials not guessed at, but proved
The strength of the Presidents posi-
tion lies in the fact that it is politi
cally as we'll as economically unassail
able. Behind him are massed the Re
publican voters who believe in tn
new order and at whose behest tn
promise of revision was written in
to the Republican national platform
of 1908.

Their. is food for thought in the
following editorial published in the
Milford Chronicle and what applies
to that town can readily be applied
to Smyrna. The Chronicle says:
fThere is no room for doubt but that
our town, with the united efforts of
it's enterprising citizens, can greatly
increase its business and enhance the
vaIue of property. Everything in

high standard of morality that exists
is inducing many to look this way
with view of locating. Our excel
lent schools is a feature greatly APP
preciated by the best people of this
