THE annual election for the town
of Milford is near at hand, the first
Monday in January 1919, and upon
the new Council will devolve much
important work which will require
the best thought and intelligent ac-
tiOns of men of capacity to admin
lister wisely public work. The
Town Council of Milford expends
about ten thousand dollars each
year, and it requires knowledge of
what the fixed expenditures are,
and what the annual expenditures
Of the various departments should
be, unless the administration run
upon the rocks of failure and en-
barrassment. There are matters of
finance to be handled which require
men familiar with such matters to
successfully carry out economically
for the town, and the people who
recognize this fact should attend
the primary meeting, which is usu-
ally held on the Friday night pre-
ceding the election, in Armory Hall, |
when a ticket is named after full
discussion Of the matters touching
public business. 1t is an easy mat
ter for a council not familiar with
the business of Milford, to waste
several thousand dollars in a year,
and for that reason at this particu-
lar juncture, the business men of
the town should take an interest in
the next election.

WHAT pitiful situation the lead
ers of the great labor organizations
now face, or at least those of them
who took the position that the Nc
Namara brothers, who caused the
destruction of more than a score OF
lives and the destruction of a great
building at Los Angeles, Califor-
MIA, two years ago, were innocent
Of the crime, and that the capital
lists of this country were persecut-
ing them in revenge against the
labor organizations. These men
have plead gully to the horrible
crime, which was only one Of many
dynamite explosions which caused
destruction of property in all parts
Of this and other countries. The
labor organizations must eliminate
the criminals, and like other organ
izations work through honorable
means for the betterment of labor.
While this crime has been unfortu-
nate in its bearing upon the cause
Of organized labor yet it is we'll for
the relations between capital and
labor, as it clarifies the situation,
and will prevent future trouble.
Had the case gone to trial, and the
men have been convicted and pun
ished, by hanging or life imprison-
ment, the labor organizations all
over the country would have pro-
claimed that it was the vengeance
Of capital bounding innocent men
70 their death; but this situation
has been made impossible, and for
hat reason we believe that calm
md sober thought will compel all
'ut the demagogue and a few So
ialists, to realize that only honest !
forts will bring about the benefits 9
ought for by organized labor. Muir '
er and arson will not be condoned; t
le laws and justice will prevail. i

from the wall and was squirting into

her face in her handkerchief

"He-he doesn't want anything to
eat, and his head aches. He-said for
me-to go away and let him die!"
Dal dropped the hammer immedi-

with bonbon halfway to her mouth.

finding sentiment of any kind in
