Labor Day is yearly reminder of
the progress the working classes
have made in recent years and of
the strength of organized labor. AS
one views the marching ranks of
labor he naturally contrasts the pre-
sent social condition of the laborer
with what it was years ago when
each individual stood alone in his
endeavor to better his lot. The ex-
perience Of those days led to the
union of forces and to that union
must lie credited most of the better
wages, shorter hours Of labor ard
other advantages now enjoyed by
the working classes. Unicnism has
not always Lcen wisely conducted
but in spite of many mistakes it has
proved a benefit to the masses.

Since June l. 1909, Gov. NJ. L.
Hay has granted seven full pardons;
seven conditional pardons. He has
discharged seventeen convicts from
the penitentiary and released twenty
five On parole. Clemency has been
exercised under the secret system.
The governor requires all to pledge
themselves not to drink any liquor.
On the first Of every month, they
must report to some person whom
he desi.nates, showing how much
they have earned and what has been
done with the money. The Gov
ernor says he believes in encourag-
ing men who have shown DISPOSE
ton to behave themselves while in
prison.

The irrigation question like that
Of the deep waterways, is Fortunate
ly not one of party. Every discern
ing person at all conversant with
natural conditions of the west knows
full well that 50 fertile naturally is
the soil that it only needs the ap-
plication of water to make immense
tracts of land remarkably product
i've and capable of supporting a
large and fourishing population.
So vast, however, is the project that
it is generally felt that to secure
best results, federal as well as state
and private should be continued.
That economy in natural expend-
iture is most desirable is true, but
it would be poor economy to stop
or curtail work on projects which if
carried out would not only benefit
particular localities but also the
whole country, and that is what
would probably happen if federal
aid is withdrawn. There are other
ways, such as franking and con-
gressional privileges, in which the
desired reduction might we'll he
made.

Within the next fortnight the Vest erly Silk company will be installed in its new plant in this city, the work of moving the machinery having been started. The machinery is to be brought here from Westerly on the Norwich & Westerly electric road and tries had stopped running in Westerly a freight car was sent over .he Main street line there from the railrsiad sta- ton to the mill where the company has been located. where it was load ed with the silk mill machinery. The car will be brought over the Norwich Westerly line as far as the East Side bridge, where 1t will be unioaded upon trucks and carted to the factory in Franklin street which has been ready and waiting for some time, the re- moval having been deferred until aft CT the celebration. Alfred NeubuTg ar, who is at the head of the concern, saSs that he hopes to have part of the local plant running by the first of the rlonth as the work of setting the machinery will be started at once. A sum not to exceed $500 was voted for the nov ing expenses of the concern by the lo- cal board of trade.
 The addition of this industry can be attributed in a large degree to the energetic efforts of Frank W. Brown ing, who came forward with the prop oHition that he would asslime the amount which the new industries con- mittee was trying to raise by subscrip- ton for a new industrial building, and the matter was turned over to him, with the result that. he has built an excellent factory building and has a tenant to occupy the entire building of three floors and who will probably want more room or an addition later. As in other matters of public import ance he has acted with promptness. and the result is a benefit to Norwich.

It was owned by the Atwoods of StonIngton who own the building Now the mill is left almost as clean as the day 1t was built. If there Is new industry to go Into the building, 1t will be necessary to place an entirely flew outfit in it.. It has been rumored that the mill will be occupied some time in the fall pt the Atwood Machine company, who will use it as an annex to their pres Superintendent Cousins of the Nor wich line ran an empty freight car down the line to see If there was room on the Pawcatuck Valley tracks. The car ran all right but part of the time it went bobbing over the granite pave- ment. The wheels were broader than Is usual on the local trolley road, so that the tires of the wheel extended over the rail and out on the pavement for space of three inches.
 The machinery in the Old Stone mill to the north of the silk mill. which was occupied a few months ago, will not be removed until all the machinery that is being removed from the Att wood mill has been set up in Norwich and is running.
