RAFTING INDUSTRY.

A special industry in Connecticut closely bound up with the welfare of Danbury, Norwalk, Brooklyn, New ark. and Philadelphia. is the making of felt hats from hatters' cut fur. They are made almost wholly for American use, none exported and but few imported, none, except for the fancy club trade,-which buys an English hat at any price rather than an American hat.
 The trade is capable of an immense expansion in foreign markets. It can- not reach them because Of the duty of twenty per cent on hatters' cut fur and the duty on dyes. chemicals and alcohol. These duties should come off.
 Hatters' cut fur is a cinch enjoyed

Business Mems Association. He says:
 This questioning of prospective mem bers of an incoming Legislature seems to me very similar to asking a jury impanelled on a criminal or civil case in court whether or not if allowed to take his seat on the jury he would promise to vote for condemning the criminal, or for favoring the plaintiff in a civil, case, before he has had a chance to hear any witness in the case, or listened to arguments of counsel. or heard the judges charge.
 The case cited by MT. Hutchinson does not run parallel with that of the public utilities bill. In the court case the evidence R still to be presented; in the other, all the evidence adducible has been long before the popular jury with the verdict rendered, and the only question is whether or not the would be legislators. upon whom rests the duty of formal rendition of the peoples | Judgment, will do so correctly or re pudiate the popular verdict.

 the people; experience has proved tha

It went up immensely. Did the farmer get any of the benefit? The tariff helped hin, to corner it for a few weeks. He does not need to work any more. no" do YOU like the tariff on wheat?
 There is a tariff on meat. Does the Meat Trust pay the farmer any more for his steers and calves than 1t would have to pay him if there was nc duty?
 There are combines in many food stuffs. Having brought into being and nourished these combines with tariff. can they all be prosecuted? Il takes a long time, several years, tc prosecute three of them, occupying ! large part of the resources of the At torney Generals office, with specia | counsel.

States exact poll taxes, and only two, North Carolina and Connecticut, ex- act military taxes, and I would abolish such taxes in this State, and if the public service corporations paid their taxes, it would not be necessary to inn pose a State tax against towns, nor a personal, military, or poll tax against individuals.
 In the event of continuance of Re- publican rule, we may reasonably ex- pect not only that these taxes will be retained, but that, sooner or later they will be increased. Such is the usual Republican policy, as witness the last tariff revision.

CLosEsOF THE CAMPAIGN.

Today marks the virtual close of the campaign of 1910. Two more days remain before the election. but they will be devoted more to practical mat ters connected with the actual voting, than to the conversion of voters from one to the other side.
 As expected, the campaign has re- volved about the candidates for Gov ernor and U. S. Senator, to the almost complete neglect of other candidates. It seems to have been assumed from the start that Baldwin and Goodwin will each carry the candidates for minor State offices with him, and that, with the exception of votes given to individuals from the motive Of per sonal friendship, the minor nominees will receive about the same vote as does the head of the ticket.
 The U. s. Senatorial contest depends upon the Legislature for decision, ana this fact has given unusual prominence to the choice of State Senators and Representatives. There are rumors Of Bulkeley treachery to Mclean leg1sia- tive candidates, and of Mclean treach- cry to Bulkeley nominees. and these rumors are marked by more or less particularity as to persons and towns. Should these methods be in any exten- sive practice, the Democratic strength | in the General Assembly will be ma | terially increased.
 | With the exception of the Fourth dis
 trict, the Congressional campaigns have
 been unusually mild and uneventful-
 In this district. Congressman Hill seems to have feared a revulsion of public sentiment, and has given his | entire time. with that of his Federal machine made up of postmasters of both high and low degree, to the
 "fence-mending' campaign plan. He | has excellent reason for alarm, for not only is there a trend of public senti- ment against Republicanism, but ht also has a Democratic competitor
 whose campaign has been active and probably effective.
 The defeat of Sheriff Hawley by hi: Democratic competitor. MT. Vollmer, i! indicated by all the signs. Republican dissatisfaction with the Sheriff's DO litical activities is widespread, and tn
 disinclination to entrust him with an!
 further opportunity of antagonizinl
 the preponderant sentiment of tn
 party, as in the Hill-Brandegee con
 test, is strong.
 For Probate Judge. the Democrat } candidate, MT. Hallen, ''has the call. The district is naturally Democrat | and no drift of Democrats to Judg , Nobbs is visible.
 . The Farmer confidently expects tn election of the Democratic State ticket , is hopeful of Democratic Legislatur l and of the defeat of Congressman Eil and predicts the election of Vollme , , as Sheriff, and of Hallen as Probat Judge.
 Much depends. however. upon th
 success or non-success of the Reput , lican plan of buying the se-calle foreign vote" en bloc, with cash pro 0 fusely contributed by the public SCI : vice corporations.

TOWN, PERSONAL, MILITARY
 AND POLL TAXES

Democratic Senatorial Candidate 'Jerry'' Donovan of South Norwalk, ts a sharp campaigner. He has been addressing to his Republican competi- tor who was a member of the House in 1909, some very pointed queries which are as pertinent here as in Nor walk, among them the following:
 You absented yourself from the House and consequently lodged vote on Senator Judson's resolution to ap- point commission to investigate the taxing of Public Service corporations, and to ascertain if they were actually paying the one per cent tax imposed on them by the State, or were really only paying less than one-half of this as claimed by many in a position to know.
 Sixteen members from Fairfield county were absent when this vote was taken, and if you and seven oth- CTS had seen fit. to vote. on 1t. the New York. New Haven & Hartford Railroad Company and other public service corporations. would have beer compelled to pay their lawful taxes ir the greater part of their taxes, and if this had been done, it would no have been necessary to have levied 2 direct State tax on the towns.
 In the Legislature of 1909, you sup ported a measure to compel every mar in the State. between tn ages of 2 and 50 to pay a personal tax of twt dollars, which measure as passed, con tains a provision for the arrest O every such person failing to pay tn tax and to fmprison him until tn amount of same, with all costs an' interest shall be paid. the imprisone' debtor to be allowed one dollar pc day in the working out of his fine being also charged with $2.25 per weel for his board while in jail. Thi measure also provides for special col lectors to be appointed for four years creating another lot of political sine cures. In contrast with your position I believe these taxes are relic of by rone days when wealth was mor evenly divided, and this measure sur ports the system under which the in come of the poorest is made the basi of the tax rate.

''The attention of every Democratic voter in Connecticut ought to be called at once to the fact that the proposition to elect Democratic candidates for membership in the Senate or the can districts or towns, under pledge to vote for either of the Republican can didates for United States Senator, is on its face immoral, demoralizing and intolerable. Better that the Demo- cratic party be dead and buried than that it go into such a scandalous and degrading political deal as that" Thus says the Hartford Times. and the Farmer endorses the statement fully. Democratic legislative nominees may receive Republican votes, given them to procure the defeat of Bulkeley or Mclean candidates, but they should | pledge themselves to no compensation therefor. Such Republican votes are sufficiently compensated by the de- feat of Bulkeley or Mclean candidates. and by the consequent 1essening of 1 the Bulkeley or the Mclean strength ! in the Republican legislative caucus. The argument of expediency accom-
 panies that of political morality as stated by the Times. Suppose that the Legislature should. as the result | of Republican bickerings, be Demo-
 cratic by a small majority on joint ballot, and the balance of power be- tween the two parties held by Demo- cratic members elected by Republican
 votes and pledged to support Bulkeley | or Mclean, how would such members meet the situation? The better way is to give no pledges.
 Commenting upon the matter, the Ansonia Sentinel says:
 If the voting is done by roll call there will be left no doubt concerning the failure of any Republican. or any Democrat, to stand by his party and his caucus If there is any such trans
 gression, the public will be able
 through the roll call. to point to the
 specific culprit and declare: 'Thor art the man. Any such act would, o1
 course, bring it's perpetrator into dis repute within his own and every other
 party, and it would mean the end ot his political career and likewise th' , loss of whatever public confidence o
 private esteem. (among desirable citi , zens) he might claim. Neither part!
 in Connecticut should be ready to tol
 crate deals of this kind. What i } wanted is a fair fight and a squar
 deal. and then the finish will take car of itself.

ALL DYSPEPSIA
and INDIGESTION
VANISHES

Take your sour, out-of-order
stomach-or maybe you call it Indi-
gestion, Dyspepsia, Gastritis or Ca
tarrh of Stomach; it doesn't matter
take your stomach trouble right
with you to your Pharmacist and
ask him to open a 50-cent case Of
Pape's Diapepsin and let you eat one
22-grain Triangule and see If within
five minutes there is left any trace
of your former misery.
The correct name for your trouble
is Food Fermentation-food sour
ing; the Digestive organs become
weak, there is lack of gastric juice;
your food is only half digested, and
you become affected with loss of ap-
petite, pressure and fullness after
eating, vomiting, nausea, heartburn,
gripping in bowels, tenderness in the
pit of stomach bad taste in mouth,
constipation, pain in limbs, sleepless-
ness, belching of gas, biliousness,
ness or many other similar symp-
toms.
If your appetite is tickle and moth
ing tempts you, or you belch gas, or
if you feel bloated after eating, or
your food lies like lump of lead on
your stomach, you can make up
your mind that at the bottom of all
this there is but one cause-fermen-
tation of undigested food.
Prove to yourself in five minutes
that your stomach is as good as
any; that there is nothing really
wrong. Stop this fermentation and
begin eating what you want without
fear of discomfort or misery.
Almost instant relief is waiting
for you. 1t is merely a matter of
how soon you take little DIapepsin.

GRAY HAIRS BANISHED.

The old idea of using sage for darkeu'
ing the hair is again coming in vogue.
Our grandmothers used to have dark,
glossy hair at the age of seventy-fye,
while our mothers have white hair before
they are fifty. Our grandmothers used
to make a sage tea" and apply it to
their hair. The tea made their hair soft
and glossy and gradually restored the
natural color. One objection to using
such a preparation was the trouble Of
making it, especially as it had to be
made every two or three days on account
Of it souring quickly. This objection has
been overcome and by asking almost
any frst-class druggist for Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur the public can get a SUI
perior preparation Of sage, with the adj
mixture Of sulphur, another valuable REM
edy for hair and scalp troubles. - Daily
use Of this preparation will not only
quickly restore the color Of the hair but
will also stop the hair from falling out
and SNAKE It grow. II is sold by all

CHINAMAN
A FRIEND TO
AMERICA
UNITED PRESS LEASED w1Rn.l

Victoria, B. c., Sept. 17.-Accord-
ing to the Kokumin Shimbun, of To-
kio, just received here, the recent
change of policy at Pekin, in recall
ing Tang Sho vi from Japan, and re-
instating him in his post of minister
of communications, foreshadows
greater influence in China in the
future. The publication says: y
IT is out of the question to expect
that the policy of Tang Shao vi, who
secured his position as a representa-
tive of the Yuan party, will be favor
able to Japan. Moreover, he is a no.
torious pro-American statesman, and
his appointment foretells the great
development OF American influence
in China in the future He represent
ed China in America, and made many
promises in America regarding Man
churia and railway questions. It will
be interesting to watch the progress
of these dead promises"
The Kokumin considers Tang an
enemy of Japan, and admits that he
is among the principal factors in
the diplomatic circles of the Far
East" Tang is radically pro-Ameri-
can.
