was announced today by the immi-

the usual delays attendant to the de-
porAtion of Chinese caught SNUG

ated.
A new system has been instigated
by the department of commerce and
labor, whereby Asiatics Illegally en-
tering the United States will be dealt
with under the general inspection
law. This gives the immigration Off

by a departmental warrant on the
grounds of being unlawfully in the

This manner of handling the SNUG

practice of dealing with them under

ROOSEVELT
GREATEST
INSURGENT
DEMO CRATIC CONGRESSMAN
MAKES SPICY SPEECH IN
WHICH HE CALLS THE INSUR-
GENT FIGHT A MOST COLOS-
SAL BLUFF.

Washington, March 22.-The re.
cent insurgent fight, the ousting OF
Clifford Pinchot and the unfinished
administration legislative program
were dished up in the house today
with tariff trimmings by Represen-
tative Palmer, Democrat, of Penn
sylyania, as the first spicy concotion
of the coming congressional cam
paign. Speaking on the general de-
bate on the pension bill, Palmer
launched into a peppery attack on
the administration and his speech is
considered Official campaign ma
terial."
The shadow of the "big stick"
was cast across the house chamber
when Palmer referred to Roosevelt
as the biggest insurgent of them all,
and declared he was most RESPONSE
BILE for the present president, who
was pleged to carry out the 'Roose'
welt policies
Then he referred to the manner
in which the policies and the legis-
lative program had been falfilled,
declaring that most of the measures
had apparently been abandoned with
the consent of the administration,
while others we're not even consid-
cred by those In charge of the sys-
TEN that he alleged controls the law
making machinery.
The tariff came in for much un-
fiattering comment, and the insur-
gent outbreak against the rules was
dismissed as the most colossal blum
of history which ended in the insur-
gents being forced TO promise to be
good
The members on the Democratic
side listened closely and applauded
freely.

The R;obts of HawIey.

There is a distinct feeling among a large number of republicans in Fair field county, friends of Congressman E. J. Hill, that Sheriff Sidney F. Hawley forfeited all rights for their support for reelection by the very determined effort he exerted to bring about the defeat of MT. Hill for the United States senate by Senator Frank B. Brandegee of New London. In fact, Sheriff Hawley's hand is the one, many of Mr. Hills friends believe, that turn ed the balance.-South Norwalk Senti- mel.
 It is hard to understand why Sheriff Hawley forfeited any political rights whatever, either private or public, when he exercised the inalienable privilege of working for the reelection of the man whom he deemed best qual- flied and best entitled to fill the politi- cal office of United States senator. The time has gone by when one free American citizen is accountable to ap- other as to how he shall vote or whom he shall favor for any office whatever. These are matters in which every man, whether an officeholder or a private citizen. whether a sheriff or a news paper man. has the right to act inde- pendently for what he deems the best good of his city, his state and the na- tion. Sheriff Hawley had as free a hand to favor MT. Brandegree as Mir. Hill, and had he chosen to work for MT Hill instead of MT. Brandegee the friends of the latter would have had no right to interfere Concerning the judgment which MT. Hawley displayed at that time, there may be an honest difference of opinion, but there is not apparent at this writing any definite proof that it was greatly in error. MT. Hawley may not succeed himself as sheriff, but if he does not it should not Hill I-Brandegee contest.-Ansonia Sem tineI

Sanitation and Clothing.

Mfr Duncan and his wife, lately re- turned from Greece, who have attract ed attention in New York by going about in public in Greek robes and arraying their little boy in an airy looking costume from which stockings were omitted have met with unbound ed ridicule and are charged with be- ing mere notoriety seekers, as indeed they may be. But they make at least one good point in their own defense, namely that they wear in cold weather as many undergarments as are neces- sary and that the outer as well as the inner wear can go to the washtub ev- cry day, if need be, and is, therefore, more sanitary than the ordinary dress.
 It is undoubtedly true that the con- ventionaI costume of civilized life has less possibility of cleanliness than has the garb worn by some of the semi
 savage races. The street clothing of both men and women is of a kind that fills with and retains dust, and street dust. according to sanitary experts, is full of all sorts of evil germs. Made of wool, lined, padded, trimmed, it can not easily be cleaned, and, in fact sell dom Is thoroughly cleaned, but is worn until it's usefulness is past, with no renovation save an occasional nasty brushing that serves merely to scatter a. part of the dust.-Indianapolis Star.

 Most of the great men of the world have been dog lovers and dogs have a whole literature of their own. The poetry which has been written in re- membrance of them contains good many masterpieces and there is little other poetic grief which cuts as keenly. Laments for human friends are often perfunctory; but those who write a dogs epitaph write it in genuine tears. There are few monodies which can compare with Arnold's "Geist's Grave'' or Haldane's My Last Terrier" for honest sorrow.-Bridgeport Telegram.

What is Literature? :?

There has been of late in current books of fiction and in magazines of note tendency to refer to newspaper writing in a sneering way. Is it right?
 We do not think it is. In fact, we are convinced that, as Goldwin Smith. Charles A. Dana and the recent up holder of the purity of our language. MT. Hazeltine, insisted, the men who write for American newspapers write in much better style, even if they do it hastily, than do the less energetic contributors to the cheaper maga zines
 Agility of mind, breadth of informa- ton, rapidity of thought and a trick of expressing it so that it hits-it stabs-that is our pPesent-day accept atfon of good writing. It is the writing that goes with the magazine or weekly demands something more. There must be, in addition to all those qualities accuracy. intensity, terseness.-Phila deIpiia Press.
