The U. s. Government in its "Pure
Food Law" does not "indorse" or guar
antee" any preparation, as some manu-
facturerS in their advertisements would
make II appear. In the case of medicines
the law provides that certain drugs shall
be mentioned on the labels, if they are
ingredients OF the preparations. Ely's
Cream Balm, the well-known family REM
edy for cold in the head, hay fever and
nasal catarrh, doesn't contain a single
injurious drug, so the makers have simply
to print the fact that it complies fully with
all the requirements of the law.

THE Democratic majority in Congress
made good start the first of the week
by looping off number of useless offices
and doing away with superfluous COM
mittees OF the House of Representatives
the sole purpose ofwhich was to provide
luxurious committee rooms for their
chairmen and pay favored clerks nice
salaries. At one blow saving of $780,
6S2 in the running expenses OF the House
was made, and the public service will not
be harmed particle.
This is practical economy that will be ia
vored by the people of the country, for
Republican extravaganza had been I'M
checked for long time. incidentally it
was a severe shock TO the opposition,
who expected the Democrats to make
even more places to satisfy the many ap-
plicants who want chance at the pie
counter.

ACCURATE information from the rail-
roads in Michigan shows that the profits
in operating passenger trains have not
fallen off under the two-cent fare law.
On the contrary, there is an increase in
the two-cent fare OF 1910 as compared
with the three cent fare OF previous years.
We have no doubt that this same sort
OF report could be proven in other
roads if honest figures could be secured.

AFTER struggle lasting for ten weeks,
the Democrats OF the New York LegiSla-
ture got together last Friday and elected
Judge James A. OGorman to the United
States Senate in place of Chauncey M.
Depew. The inSurgent Democrats sue
ceeded in their determination TO defeat
the Tammany candidate, VIM. F. Shee-
han, and although Judge O'Gorman was
not their first choice, they finally agreed
to support him and his election followed.
The new Senator is a well-known men,
Der OF the New York Supreme Court, and
il is believed that he will serve the peo-
pie well. He will be decidedly better
man in the Senate than Mr.. Depew, who
was openly and aboveboard a represen-
tative of the corporations.

GOVERNOR GLASSCoCK announces that
he is still of mind to call an extra seS-
sion Of the Legislature for the purpose OF
considering primary election law, and
will probably have the Legislature meet
the latter part of this month. We hope
that he will do so. Both parties are
pledged TO enact such a measure, and
there should be no difficulty in enacting
a fair primary law. We know that the
people as a rule want it, and the oppoSi-
ton to it comes almost entirely from dis
honest grafterS and political manipulatorS
who have personal ends TO subServe by
a continuance of the old system.
There are other good measures that
might be included in this call, but the
Governor doubtless recognizes the futility
OF further effort while the State Senate is
dominated by crooked majority.

in passing authority who has had some whimsical notion that a change in a paper form would by itself inn prove municipal government.
 The commission shares the control of the streets with the street com- mittee of the Common Council, the superintendent of streets, the director of public works, the mayor, the board of apportionment and taxation and some others, all conflicting and au- tonomous authorities Under all this guidance Fairfield avenue had become a ditch, a nuisance to business, a de- triment to traffic and danger to life and limb.
 If the permanent pavement com mission had power to repair the street and it was it's duty to do SO, why didn't it
 In admitting the power it admits the failure. The Permanent Paving and Sewer Commission is a W. B. ID. Stokes of government It proclaims its own deficiencies to the world. The gratitude of the public is for whoever made the street passable.

WARCHOLIKS
 DISCHARGED
Men Arrested During Riot in Greek Church Are
 Freed in Court

Ansonia, Nov. 25-Joseph and Sam uel Warcholik, who were arrested in this city a week. ago, charged with being the principals in the riot that occurred at the Russian Greek church, were late yesterday afternoon dis charged by Judge Isbell in the city court. Besides being charged with disturbing meeting of the ecclesias- tical society, the Warcho1iks were also charged with an assault on the viszky, of New York city. The ease was on for two days, and it's end was quite sudden, as the court officials were inclined to think that it would take fully a week in hearing the evil dence.
 From the commencement of the case it was seen that a strong defense would be put up. Other than to voice their protest at the efforts of the church officials and some of those con nected with the ecclesiastical society to expel Joseph Warcho,ik and five others from membership in the society, the State brought out nothing. Tes- timony was offered, however, showing that Joseph Warcholik grabbed a chair threatingly, and that Samuel Wacholik in addressing the priest made considerable noice with society book he held, containing the names of the members. The priest was called a ''pharisee" and told to go back to .'the theatre in, New York"
 The action of the court in discharg- ing the Warcholiks is looked upon by that faction as a complete victory in the series of troubles that has been prominent at the church for the last five weeks.
