In the American Magazine for June

- In the American Magazine for June, Hay Stannard Baker summarizes the Republican situation as follows:
 Not only in the Middle West, but in several important Eastern States, the Republicans are facing a wide spread and determined factional revolt Of the Insurgents and Progressives within their own party. The Roose- tte-Pinchot-Garfield wing of the party is unalterably opposed to she Aldrich- non-Hale-Tawney wing. At Washington a vibratory admins sration. already fighting on the defen- Tive, is staggering under a heavy load cf unpopular cabinet secretaries Hitchcock, Ballinger and Knox. Seek sng with weak amiability and dull sin cerity for party harmony upon ques- tfons of principle which admit of no compromise, sit has entangled itself with leaders in Congress who have ut terly lost the confidence of the rank and file even of their own party. It has charged itself with the heavy re- sponsibility of a notOriously unpopular tariff bill passed in defiance of the prediction promises of the party lead CTS. It has shaken the peoples con- fidence by an attitude of complaisant legalism upon the approved policy of conservation. by giving comfort to the enemies of that policy-men like Bal ;inger-and by alienating such SUD- porters of it as Pinchot and Garfield, whom tha people trust And while it has failed to retain the support of the great agricultural population of the West, neither has it secured the unalloyed approval of the powerful monied interests of the East.

ARE YOU A PAINT MAKER?

You don't have to be one in order to mix your. own paint when you have a house to paint. Its mighty easy to buy gallons of l.. & M. Paint, and gallons of pure Linseed Oil, and put both in large pail and mix we'll together. You will then make 2 gallons of the best paint at a cost of about $1.30 per gallon and then have a good painter paint your house. The l.. & M. is sold by Harry Rider, Bridgeport; Northrop Bros, Southport; D. N. Clark, Shelton; T. P. Terry & Son, Ansonia; M. T. Greg ory & Son, Milford.
