be very economical as well as a very efficient service, and the wonder Is that railroads. having mountain divis- ions, have, not generally adopted this plan heretofore. The fact that they may follow the Canadian example and that all roads having sufficient water power upon their lines or near enough do assure economical transmission of electricity, will eventually resort to electric power, gives importance to the Presidents project of conservation of water power. and also to the need of restricting or preventing the absorption of water rights by giant corporations. A time is coming, may be compara- lively near, when an increasing scarcity of coal will compel resort to water power wherever natural conditions render such procedure possible. Prompt action may be found neces- sary, for the ounce of prevention may be worth pounds of cure in this mat ter.

In message to the California Leg islature, Gov. Gillette places a new complexion upon the Japanese agitation. He says, in substance, that the Japanese coolies pour into the State, leasing and purchasing agricul- fural lands" It appears from this statement that the Japanese do not come with the intention of earning and saving as common laborers sufficient to enable them to return to Japan and a comfortable living there, as do some other classes of immigrants, but pro- ceed to lease or purchase agricultural lands with a view to permanent resi- dence thereon. In Eastern opinion this would remove the principal objec- tion to Japanese immigration.

District Attorney Jerome of New York Is willing to institute criminal libel suit against the N. Y. World on account of the Panama Canal charges, provided MT. Robinson, President Hoosevelt's brotfer-in-law who is cit 1xen of New York, will enter complaint and provided also that the proceedings ln the Federal courts are abandoned. AS there is much doubt whether the latter have any solid legal basis. the matter will probably be left to MT Jerome. There is no Federal law of criminal libel, and the Federal case, if continued, must rest upon the so-called common law which is a somewhat un- certain quantity.

REVENGE
 BUL:KELEY's ACQUIESCENCE

The matter of the rejection of the renomination of Postmaster Allen o1 Middletown, at the instance of Sena- tors Bulkeley and Brandegee, does not down. Indeed, it bids fair to become cause celebre, and it assuredly will, if President Roosevelt refuses to send in another name and if MT. Taft, on as- stunning the Presidency renews the All len nomination, as is expected. New facts are constantly coming to light, Bome of them illuminative. @ !.
 It h now said that Congressman Hill immediately after the end of the Sena- torial contest, requested President Roosevelt to renoninate Allen, and that he did so without consulting Con- sgrcssman Sperry who represents the district including Middletown. -, Oi course, the inference sought to be drawn from this report is that MT. Hill waS rewarding Allen for his sup port in the Senatorial contest.
 There are now indications that the Alien nomination was rejected at the instance of Senator Brandegee alone and that Senator Bulkley was either frienday to Allen or stood neutral MT. Allen says that he does not hold Sen ator Bulkeley responsible for his re- lection. ''Whatever did, he says, ssSenator Bulkeley knew all about it.' Another report quotes Senator Bulk eley as saying fin response to Aliens statement that public sentiment conn pelled him to work for Hill: "Of course, If that is the way you feel about it, why go right home and do what you think is best for your own best interests" The obvious purpose of these reports is to exonerate Bulk eiey from blame and to load it all upon Brandegee.
 It appears that there are two Repub- Hcan factions in Middiesex county, one led by Allen and the other by Post master Brown Of East Hampton. When the latter's name was sent to the Sem ate about a year ago, Brandegee is said to have favored, and Bulkeley op- posed confirmation, and he was sInocked ort.'' In the present case it looks as if the conditions were revers- ed. Bu1kley favoring and Brandegee 4ppusfng Aliens confirmation, the re- |. puaf being the same in both cases, re- 5ectfon. Apparently. neither Senator swfu interfere with a rejection desired b3 the other.
 z Tho matter would attract but slight attention In this section but for it's Probable bearing upon appointments in Western Connecticut. If Brandegee should continue his war upon Hill sup porters who hold Federal offices, for in- stance Postmasters Roraback and Mnrigold, it is evident that Bulkeley will not interfere with his pursuance of personal grudges.
 It is very small potatoes for a man just chosen to so high an office as a U. s. Senatorship.

DEFEATS TOUGH
JIMMY MORAN OF new WORK

One more scalp vas added to Patsy
kline's already long list when he out
boxed and outpointed tough Jimmy
Moran, of New York city, last night
before a big crowd at the fashionable
Whirlwind Club in Harlem. Moran
was pounds heavier than the Newark
lad, but did not possess the punch that
Kline carried In both hands.
Though the Newark boy failed to put
his opponent away. he demonstrated
that he was by far a classier fighter.

Moran took a lacing for ten rounds

With all the chances of putting his OPP

he allowed him to stall till the count
after he had battered him against the
ropes and had put him In a groggy
state. kline's admirers from this city
and many from the big town yelled for
him to put Moran away, but he failed
to finish him and waited until the sixth.
The minutes intermission gave
Moran a chance to come back. which
he did. Toward the finish Kline fought

down in the ninth round. Kline was
