Feminine Hinhhyers.

When the heavier than-air flying machine was proved to be a mechani- cal possibility it was predicted that aviation would soon become a, fad sim liar to that of autom obiling, or, in the earlier days, bicycling. Despite recent mishaps in the air which have cost the lives of several experirnenters. this forecast seems likely to be verified. AL ready factories are turning out aero planes to order both in this country and abroad and soon it will be possible for anyone who fancieS aerial ca reer to equip himself with an up-to- date machine of any one of half dozen or more types. Indeed, there are now at work several thousand skilled artisans making aeroplaneS for public use, and in all probability next season will see an airplane owned pri- vately in every large city, while possi- bIy the town that does not possess a sky pilot among it's followers of ven turesome sport will feel dec1assed and distanced in the race of progress. It has just been annuonced that three French monoplanes are now on their way across the Atlantic, having been manufactured especially for the Amer

seideI Continues to Surprise.

Emil Seidel, the socialist mayor of Milwaukee, is like MT. Gaynor in one respect-scarcely a day passes that he does not do some sensible thing in a simple way that no one had thought of before. He has been in office only a little over two months, yet the repub- licans and democrats who prophesied dire things as a result of his election are joining in his praise. He does not act they thought socialist mayor would act. He seems to have a high regard for his oath of office and a wholesome respect for the laws and ordinances of the city that his demo- cratic predecessor, David Rose, never even pretended to have. As a German n and a socialist he was expected to in terpret the laws '1iberally." Yet un- der his control the total number of Sa- looms has been cut down considerably by the refusal of licenses to a long list of places which have been notori- ously allowed to break the excise regu- lations with impunity in the past. Last week a hundred of these protected" places closed their doors in despair. Mayor SeideI is srictly enforcing the liquor laws in the restricted districts a feat which was supposed to be inn possible. He has just now made if clear that the Johnson-Jeffries fight pictures will not be tolerated in Mill waukee. In many ways he has better methods are far from militant 'I don't like to issue orders,' he declares. T prefer to ask for corporation. And think that will generally accomplish the desired results.'-New York Even ing Post

more than the annual charge to Pres ton subscribers. And what is of equal importance, many more than would otherwise have phones and the local service is thus more valuable to each Southern New England on honorable and fair conditions is refused, let the line be a purely local one. The eX- pense would then. as in Franklin, be almost nothing after the small first cost and all could afford phones. The advantage for local uses, which are equally valuable, would be very great. For, as almost everybody would have phones then, the convenience of being able to talk with all would be great. Even those who would retain their Southern New England phones would be among those most eager to supple ment it by this invaluable local ser vice at a nominal expense.
 The first need of the situation is that there be a conc erred plan of ac- ton. The Southern New England peo- pie are already awake to the situation and it is well for Us to be on guard in dealing with them. The writer speaks from personal experience in dealing with them. He does not wish to convey the impression that they are worse than other similar organizations but as the situation now is without a good public utilities law we are very much at their mercy and must guard our rights carefully.

The Modernist in zoar.

zoar is a bit of the old world put down in Ohio- Its communistic found CTS brought the arts and crafts, tastes and prejudices, with them to this country and here builded a town so completely foreign of aspect, that a stranger, if by some miracle suddenly placed there might think himself in a far-away German province. And it is not only foreign but it looks old, steep ed in the quiet and restfulness and dignity of years.
 In Zoar today there is an old man, old even for Zoar, who devotes his fading days to the most modern con- cerns- He is engaged in making the model of an airship. using aluminium a material unattainable for the purpose thirty years ago, and incorporating in the invention the experiences of arero- nauts whose names were scarce heard of a few months since.

HEART NOT BOWED DOWN.

Who can think of Colonel Bryan after his political knockout in Ne braska as a democratic leader as a man with his beart bowed down.
 -Colonel Bryan's optimism has been his stock in trade during his whole 20 years of supremacy in democratic af- fairs. To a degree the judgment of Bryan and Of Jeffries was not so dis similar Both had worn their chap let's for a score of years. and had they had the sense to have retired at the psychological moment they could have worn them and gone down in history as unwhipped champions. Both bat tied once more, and lost
 There is little danger that Colonel Bryan will cast his lot with the re- publicans. Bryan is really committed as prohibitionist, and with Texas moving for statewide prohibition, and other states showing the same tenden- cy. there are democrats who believe that the prohibition party may yet become a powerful factor in national politics. Colonel Bryan is very apt to join the prohioitionists or socialists rather than the republicans

FOOLS IN FINANCE.

V It is surprising how often an i'm com pstent shows up in the banks of this country as a defsulter, and how simple and suIlible these clerks and cashiers appear when the story of 1heir criminal folly is told.
 Erwin Wider. the young cashier of the New York branch of the Russo Chinese bank who is still missing. is one Of these. He stole $500, GOO from the bank and it profted him nothing He was simply a dupe of abler and kSener as well as more Yillainous men He got ridFof SSo. .oeo in bonds and s.525 shares Of industrial and railroad stocks. and Leon B. Ginsburg counsel for the absconding cashier, said. T do not believe Wilder has 'salted' away a penny from the stocks he has taken I think it will be found that all of the securities were used in speculation and that he was wiped out in his marginal transactions in Wall street.
 This is an exhibit which tells for the total incoEn peteRce Of Wider, and The wonder iz that he should ever have been selected as cashier of such . bank
 The exercise of 8 little more care in the choice Of officials and stricter watchfulness would save the banks millions of dollars annually

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Telephone Situation in Preston.

MT. Editor: There is much dissatis- faction with the telephone situation in Preston. A cheap efficient service maans much to local interests in all pane of country life. The social life is not developed and all interests suffer The telephone meets this condition A telephons service within the means of the average farmer is a necessity.
 One must now pay SIS year for telephone, and this gives him free use of only the few telephones in Preston, and only a very few of the people in town with whom he has business or social relations have tele- phones, it is of little value to him for local purposes. On all other calls in the Norwich exchange he must pay toll which greatly increases the ex- pense and puts the telephone beyond the reach of the great majority
 Again the Southern New England adopts a unique policy in extending it's system Most other public utilities companies invest capital in extending the plant. The $. N. E. gives it's ser vice under the conditions that usually exist in the country only on condition of the cost of construction of the line. Ultimately it will have valuable property largely built by the enforced contributions of it's subscribers. A large section of the town is now with out telephone service because the Southern New England will not build into that section unless those desiring service meet most of the cost of con Strltction.
 What is the remedy? It is for the parties interested to meet and agree upon common course of action. Ii the Southern New England will give free service in the Norwich exchange IS is done for the people of Ledyard in the Mystic exchange, for instance, and extend it's lines into desired terri tory, nothing further need be done.
 If not, then let local association be organized and a local line built and operated. Let it be built in thorough manner, equal to the Southern New England lines As the cost of censtruc tion is very light per mile, this can easily be done. If an agreement is then reached with the Southern New Eng land. connection can be made with it's lines, is done in Lebanon, Hunting ton etc. etc. Service will then be much less expensive than now In Huntington it is only $S year for shareholders, and first eest Mas hardly

WHY SHOULD HE2

What Bulkeley submit his claims to a popular test? Never! There is just one thing he is less likely to do. if that is possible, and that is to ac- cept an invitation to meet Mclean on the public platform, in joint debate, upon the merits of their respective ndidacies.-Exchange
 Why is there a reason for the use of any different methods for electing United States senator in 1911 than were used in tke repeated elections of Ha wiley and Psatt? They nor none of their predecessors were in any way adversely affected by the legal meth ods of procedure-methods which can not. be readily changed to meet the whim of an ambitious nan who calls for a new method because he feels that he has no chance by the old method.
 If the Hon. MT. Mclean was a sen ator wouldn't he sit and laugh at such challenges as these? If the de- sire to make a change is born of any thing except a foriorn hope if the legal methods are continued. The Bull letin does not know what 1t is. Of course, the old methods will be em- ployed for electing a United States senator from Connecticut, for the law prescribes the way in which the cleo tion shall be held. What warrant is there for holding it in any other way ?

WANTS TO GET THE TRUTH.

When there is a labor battle the air is usually filled with lies instead of smoke. and no one can tell which side produces most of them The St. 4lbens Messenger is anxious to get the exact facts about the Grand Trunk strike It moved with care. but now It Is forced to self-defence. It says:
 There are leaders of the striking Central Vermont railway employees who know from personal knowledge that the representation made to the city council that The Messenger had not been fair in publishing their side Of the contest, Is not true They know how many articles on their side of the question have been printed at their request and how many more without it They know now persist ensly The Messenger has solicited them to present their case themse elves and cHered them all reasonable space in which to publish if, and they know inov they have each time declined. They know other details in connection with The Messengers endeavor to be fair in this business, details that are intimately personal to them, and they can correct this mistaken criticism of mistaken associates if they care to do so-'
 Most every newspaper has had ex- psriences of this kind They try hard to Eet the truth and then are assafIed as malicious opponents of Ia bor or cap sfaL because something has been printed for truth which one or both sides declares to be a He. The Mes seager has The Bulletins sympathies, IL isn't likely to get what it wants.

The IncorrioibIes.

An habitual. incorrigible enemy of society should be solemnly adjudged to be put to death I would give him a fair trial I would require proof that lie had been an habitual criminal for a long term of years. I would give him an opportunity to make a full defense. and if finally it were established by clear proof that the man was one of those, numbers of whom exist in mod ern society, whose nature has been degraded by a life of undertaking wickedness into that of a wild beast. incapable of any substantial improve : m ent or alteration, such a man, in my opinion, should be solemnly adjudged to be put to death. But if, in view of the squeamish Sentimentality of this age, such a course be deemed inn practicable, I should shut him up for life where he could do no more evil to society.-Judge George c. Holt.

No Chance for Losing Them.

NO CnanCe TOT Losing nen.
 In a recent newspaper interview James J. Hill said that the country would be all right if the politicians would only let it alone. Similar ex- pressfons have been made of late by a number of men prominent in the busi- ness and industrial affairs of the coun- try, their viewpoint apparently being that the railroads and other industrial and business concerns would get aIon 2 very well with~the people if the state and federal legislators would cease trying to pass new laws.
 It is possible, of course, that the country might get along better if the politicians would let it alone, but the politicians will not let it alone. They have had a hand in governmental af- fairs since the beginning and probably will have it to the end. It might help too. if we could lose the politicians and develop a school of statesmen but the difficulty is that the averag politician is certain that he is states man and, unfortunately, frequently has convinced a lot of folks to the same effect Under our system of govern ment the politician is a necessary evil and he is here to stay. What we have got to do is to develop better grade of politicians.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.
