About Glenwood Ranges.

1t will undoubtedly interest many
users of Glenwood ranges to know
how this business is growing. Last
year the Nothnagle store sold right
here in Bridgeport and vicinity over q
third more Glenwood than the previ-
Gus year, and all former years have
increased in about the same proper
tons since the Nothnagle store has
sold the line. Since the new year be-
gan, the sales have already increased
to four times the quantity sold during
the entire month Of January Of last
year, which would indicate that the
increase in sales will be very great for
1911. The Glenwood business is grow
ing just like this in many other cities.
There's a reason. The Glenwood is
without question the best and most up
to date range made. You have no
idea how easy it is to regulate the fire
to any heat required, and another
thing, they use less coal than any 9TH
er range. The smooth castings, and
the simpleness Of the designs now
prevailing. will surely please you. No
work at all to blacken and to keep
them shining. They must be seen to
be appreciated. Drop in to Moth
nagle's and talk your problem over.
Everything else that goes to make a
home tasteful and comfortable is
there. Entrances at 1875 Fairfield
avenue and 1869 Main street.

PUBLIC OPINION
POT CALLs KETTLE BLACK.

To the Editor of the Farmer:
Sir:-I now write you in reference
to the statement that Supt. Chapman
makes in regard to the loss of money
through the dishonest use of trans
fers. Supt. Chapman does not state
the profit that the trolley company
makes. but the people of Bridgeport
know they are not getting the cent
fare or eight tickets for a quarter
which other trolley companies give
and still make a profit. I say it's
the trolley company that's dishonest
when they rob the working class of
five cents and three cents is enough.
The trolley company has been TAX
ing advantage of the people a mighty
long while. 1 was an eye witness
one time when they used to run East
Main street cars from the depot, and
when the car was across the lower
bridge the sign was changed to Sea-
view avenue and the people would
have to get out and lose their fare.
How is that for dishonesty. And then
when inc people see a chance to take
hack some of the money that they
have given so freely for such poor
service the company thinks its hell.

LABOR PARTY
MAKES DEMAND
Chief Ally of Liberals Will
Have Members of Parlia-
ment Paid Salary.
Especial from United Press.)

London, Jan. 23-As -,,e Of the
ton1it'tns of thar support OF the
Liberal party in the forthcoming ses-
-, n of oLrliament, the Labor Party,
chief ally Of the Liberals. will insist
on the passage of bill paying men,
bers Of parliament salary. The re-
port that the Laborites had abandon
ed this feature Of their reform pro-
gram was emphatically denied by the
leaders, today. The bill will prob
ably provide for $4,000 a year and
will be made so active that the sal
aries will fall due at the opening of
parliament. No member will be en-
titled TO his pay unless he can show
q reasonably continuous attendance at
the parliamentary sessions.
The passage Of SUCH q bill, coupled
with the overthrow of the Osborne
decision" which prohibits labor I'm
ions from assessing their members
for the support Of labor members ct
parliament will greatly strengthen
the Labor Party.
The overthrow of the osborne de-
cision,' which is another condition
precedent to the Laborites support of
the Liberals, will make 1t possible
for the Labor Party to maintain a
strong "war. cllest' and to defray the
election campaign expenses Of their

PANAMA PRESIDENT
ENDORSES FIRM CANAL
STAND TAKEN By TAFT.

Especial from United Press.)
Panama. JAN 23-President Arose
mena today expressed his pleasure at
the firm stand taken by President
Taft in his address to the Pennsgl-
vania Society. Saturday night, in IA
vor of the Fertilization of the Panama
Canal.
1.-The arguments in favor Of the for
LITIGATION of the canal are SO numer-
Gus and weighty." Arosemena said,
''that I don't see how the American
government can hesitate a moment.
Not to fortify the canal would leave
this gigantic undertaking at the
mercy of an enelny's warships as a
few shells could easily ruin the locks.
Panama will heartily cooperate
with the United States in the fortifi-
cation of the canal as the proper con-
troll Of the canal is relatively of as
much Importance to Panama as the
Tinted States"
