GOOD STORY ABOUT
 SAM FESSENDEN

tFNrom "Reminiscences of Tom Platt in
 New York Sunday Sum-
 Platt and /the New York delegation at the St. Louis convention of 1896 were obtenSibly for Governor Levi P. Morton for President but really for Thomas B. Reed. then Speaker of the House of Representatives Sam Fes- warriors in the Republican party were with Platt and his friends for Reed. Hanna's Republican National commit tee scarcely went through the form of hearing the contests. They fired Morton delegates out without a nur- nlur, and they pitched Reed delegates skyward. The Frank H. Hitchcock was a Sunday school picnic compared to the Hanna machine at St. Louis in 1896. At 3 o'clock one morning Sam Fessenden awoke P1att in the South ern Hotel and made a speech to him thus:
 That old duffer Hanna is pitching out our men. Old Hanna's machine is siaughtering our men. That old snoozer Hanna is butchering us. His guil'otine is working now even at this hour. I'm going downstairs to give him hell. You come downstairs with me and give him hell. too. Ill get all our friends to give him hell''
 "Go to bed. Sam replied Platt, land don't you say outside of this room what you have said to me if you ever want to be United States Senator for the State of Connecticut"
 But MT. Fessenden didn't take MT. Platt's advice. He went downstairs and sailed into MT. Hanna right in the committee room. and MT. Fessenden was never United States Senator for the State of Connecticut.

WOMEN'S WAYS OF EARNING MONEY.
 a New Book Creating
 Widespread interest.
By CYNTHIA ". ALDEN, President General of the International
 Sunshine Society.

This new book is being circulated widely throughout the country by The National Home Products League, an organization for the promotion of the welfare of the home, advancing plans and ideas whereby women may earn in the home without seeking employment In mills, factories, stores or shops.
 Tie purpose of the book is to familiar lze women with such methods as they are now using to earn livelihood. It is creating widespread interest in the entire subject.
 MrsscA1den tells women how to earn money in womanly ways. One is struck by the number of original and novel occupations mentioned. Its value in every home from Maine to Oregon will be mort- than transient. It Is breezy and inspires confidence and women will find it comfort to have in the home. There is hardly woman who may not some day be called upon to earn and this book may save many an anxious hour.
 The general purpose of the League k to assist in home. earning of women alG to spread the organization over tlSa entire country and wherever women may be found who have desire to earn by home work, providing her work can ards required by the League The League then through its selling organization, will market her products.
 The first efforts of this organization is to deal with home manufacture of goods which can be sold by the maker in her own locality, without the aid of the selling organization of the League. Later the manufacture of articles in the home to be sold widely through the League is to be taken up.
 Those who are interested in earning and wish to consider the making and selling in their own locality, articles of home m n u f a cture, will receive full information by writing to The National Home Products League, s21 Park Row, New York City.
 If the book, f women's Ways of Earning Money'' is of interest. tbe cloth sdition may be secured by unaiIi az $1 % % the League.

BLEACHED FLOUR
Certain Process Injurious to Health = Circular from the Department of Agri- culture.

To Manufacturers. Vendors, and Con-
 sumers of Bleached Flour: Flour bleached by the Alsop process contains added poisonous and added delet erious ingredients which render the flour injurious to health. Flour bleached by the AlSOp process contains a, substance known as nitrites which reduces. lowers and injuriously affects the quality and strength of the four.
 Flour bleached by the Alsop process is mixed colored and stained in a manner whereby damage and inferior ity are concealed.
 the A1sop process is adulterated with in the meaning of the Food and Drugs Act of June 30 1906.
 So decided Judge Rufus B. FosterSon March 15, 1910. in the case of the unit ed States of America, Libellant, vs. APO sacks, ct als. of Flour. in the Unit ed States District Court for the East ern District of Louisiana.
 There was also involved in this case the issue Of misbranding, and the de- cree of the court was that the flour called particularly, however, to the adulteratfon feature because of the misleading circular which is being dis tributed by the Alsop Process Com turers of four to continue to violate the Food and Drugs Act. An attor- ney of the Alsop Process Co. who a1- so represented several of the naillers, and other attorneys representing the n1i1lers. had a full fair opportunity in the New Orleans case to contest the issue of adulteration of four bleached by the Alsop process and refused to do so. The so-cal1ed Iowa cases'' were dismissed by the Government be- cause in the opinion of the Assistant Attorney General in charge of the eases the issue was not presented in those cases in the full, complete and thorough going manner desired by the Government.
 I desire to advise manufacturers vendors, and consumers of bleached flour that there has been no change in the position of this department as announced in Food Inspection Decis- ion No 100, and sustained by the Fed era1 Court, i. e.. flour bleached by ni- trogen peroxid is an adulterated pro- duct under the Food and Drugs Act of June 30, 1906; that the character of the adulteration is such that no state ment upon the label will bring bleach ed flour within the law; and that such flour can not legally be made or sold in the District of Columbia or in the Territories, or be transported or sold in interstate commerce.

Tn his annual message, Mayor Gi1- bert of Danbury refers to the city's water department, as follows:
 One Of the city's most valuable ac- QufsitionS is it's water system. Based upon the income derived from this Hource it has a value nearly double ahe entire city indebtedness.
 This department is more than self sustaining and yearly decreases the c1ty's debts.
 And yet there are men who assert khat municipal ownership is irnprac-
 aab1e and unadvisable and that
 ss cannot manage their water sup
 Yes as economically and efficiently as can private corporations. The above quotations prove the contrary. Danbury's water works are not only worth nearly double the city's entire Indebtedness, but are also annually decreasing that indebtedness.

According to rules for the control of air navigation. as formulated by the Aero club of France and pre- scented to the government for adop- t1on. aerial craft must not circulate dover than 150 feet above private property. which practically means everywhere; for flights over cities, permits should be procured; general routes should be arranged for the prevention of collisions; proprietors of high structures should be required to illuminate at night, and electric or other wires strung over 15O feet from the ground should be marked with flags by day and lights. by night; and ..ports of access should be pro- Ezded by all cities.
 These are all reasonable require ments. The rules omit, however, all mention of the aerial right of way over private property, which is by far the most important point as yet unsettled. Many suggestions of leg 1sIatton have been made, but none as yet adopted.

It is rather amusing to find the New London Day stating that 'tSheriff Hawley of Fairfield county is to have a Walk-over.'' The assertion is most assuredIy not founded upon any real canvass of Fairfield county sentiment. As a matter of fact, it is quite gen orally believed that the most severe struggle of his prolonged career con- fronts Sheriff Hawley, and particu- 1arly so if the Democratic candidate should be of such high standing as to invite the support of the Anti-Haw- ley Republicans, who are many, very many. Thus far, three names are mentioned in connection with the Democratic nomination, viz, Simon Bradley of Fairfield. Police Chief Wo1mer of So Norwaik, and Collector Donnelly of this city-all good tim ber.s' and either one of whom could, fin our opinion. defeat Sheriff Haw ley.
