Our last letter left us at the Italian frontier on the eastern slope of the Simplon Pass of the Alps m our Ian Geaux which had brought us safely over from Switzerland on Napoleon S
 road It is astonishing how he ever could have got his vast army and
 horses cannon and military equipment
 over such a road in his day, especially
 when we consider that for over a cen
 tury this road has been constantly
 worked and improved as well as kept
 in repair At places modern masonry
 in piers. abutments, bridges and tun-
 nelS are in evidence, and which take
 the road across seemingly inaccessible
 places. Of course all the way the road
 s now much better than 1t could have
 time and expense. Also we 1nusts re-
 member that it was then constructed
 as hastily as possible, just so to
 go through, hit or miss
 At Iselle We reluctantly leave the
 landeaux and take train again and pro-
 ceed a couple of hours till we come to
 the celebrated Italian lake, Maggoiri,
 where we stop for the night. Soon we are partaking of an evening dinner at tables Nspread in a rose-enbowered yard in front of our hotel "Swisse,' ' and the ripping waters of the lake at our feet It is a refreshing and joyous coneiusiSn of our strenuous day of <Al- pine climbing and sightseeing. The full moon rises out of the eastern waters of the lake as we finger at the tables and casts an enchanting glamour over the scene. RowbOats and steam launches are at hand, and the tempta- ton cannot be resisted to go out upon the smooth waters ere we retire. An evening of gay mirth and rippIing laughter and laughing waters under the soft sky of Italy long to be remem- bered.
 S,rhe next day we have several hours In Milan, inspecting the magnificent cathedral walking among the 135 tur- rets and over 1000 statues of saints on the roof, exploring the crypt, lunching under the glass dome of the wonderful Gallerie VittOrio Emanuela and going to another cathedral to see the orig iHal masterpiefe of Da Vinci the our Christia9<h in America by many artistic and steelplate reproduc- tions.

 It is more than probable that the
 real exposition to celebrate the oper,-
 ing of the Panama canal may be held at Washington, D. c. The Post of that city is warranted in pointing out that the ca pitol of the country is the proper place for such a demon stration and the center which the largest number of people would nat

THE BoswoRrH FAMILY FUND

Engineer F. c. Bosworth of New London, who lost his life last week on Thursday at an open switch on the Valley branch, was an exemplary citizen. who left a wife and two chil- dren who are in needy circuns tances, for he was a son who was devoted to his aged parents and contri buted to their support.
 The Times and The Courant of Hartford have started a subscription for his family and it is led by Morgan c. BTrfkeley. who subscrtbes $250, and Mrs. Bulkeley, who gives s1O0. The sum Is already nearing $1.000 and should reach larger proportions.
 This offers an opportunity for any generous and sympathetic person of means in eastern Connecticut to as- sist in a worthy object.
 Contributions made either paper will gladly acknowledge and care for until the fuEd Is completed when 1t will be turned over under proper safe guards to the widow.

FAIR PLAY.

Th9 call issued by the Courant for faic play in the political primaries carries with it the inference that un- fair play Is being somewhere prac- ticed, and as the interruptions do not know how to play fair this has been and is ever likely to be a condition of campaigns in spots when the pre- Hminariss are being attended to; but the unfairness so far as the Bulletin has been able to discern has not been and is not now confined to. any one faction in the field.
 It is an undeniable fact that no campaign of misrepresentation was ever successful yet. and it is the man who playB fair that wins.
 It seems to The Bulletin as if The Courant was unduly exercised on ac- count eR fts fear that the democrats of Hare8@rd are going te act in repuh- ncan caueuses and really hold the balance of power. Our system of registration by duly qualified regis trars- makes this an impossibility since all but declared republicans can be denied the right to vote under the check list system-f The Courant and the friends of Mir. Goodwin will be acting fairer to thus guard the eau cuses than they now seem to be :n making ready, if the republican eau cuses do not support their candidate. to cry out against the winner that he played unfair and is not the repub- lican choice.
 There are all kinds of political tao tics. and in the primaries. with all the legal guards at their command it seems as if the Goodwin papers were open to suspicion, for at this juncture of the campaign to be putting out these fears as possibilities when legal provision against their practice act uaIly exists and can be invoked.

Objects to Publicity of New Law.

Chicago, Jan. ia systematic
campaign for the repeal OF the pub
licity feature of the new corporation
excise tax law is to be launched at
a meeting to be held here tomorrow
of representatives of manufacturers
and commercial organizations
throughout the west. The conference.
which was called by the Illinois Man
ufacturers' association. will agree
upon plans for united action in the
fight against the publicity clause, to
which objection has been made by
corporations throughout the country
The campaign against the publicity
cause is likely to assume a legal
phase, since many eminent lawyers
have expressed the opinion that there
are several grounds on which the
new law may be attacked In the
courts. The chief claim is that 1t
is unconstitutional because 1t dis
eliminates between corporations in
the matter of earnings.

of the geographical names now in use

Judge Whitson holds that the act

were incorrect, either through fraud
or mistake, and that the grant was
intended by congress to be bounded
by the natural divide of the land, the

Spokane, Jan. 13.-Charles II.
Meyer, president of the Western
Federation of Miners, brands the In

solute failure in letters to friends in
Spokane and Butte, Mont, in the lat
ter voicing his iisapproval of the at
titude of the Butte Miners union to-
ward the organization. He says
among other things in referring to
the I. W. w. that sits hold on life
is only temporary; in fact, had not
its present supporters come to their
assistance on account Of the so-called
free speech fight in Spokane, which,
by the way, is only subterfuge, they
would have been a thing of the past
in less than twelve months from to-

it continues it's policy, will be for
tunate indeed if it is not carried
down to destruction in this crash

that the time is near when the or
ganized labor movement of America
will realize the impotency of the

both of whom were slightly injured
recently during ascensions. He
said:
Il believe the deaths of De La

close to the ground, where the air
current Is uncertain. 1 would as
soon fall from 1000 feet or 5000
feet as from 100 feet. There is less
danger of falling from the greater
heights. Hereafter I think that ]
