Democrats See Chance to
 Win Rhode Island
Even Without Third Ticket They Believe They Gan Carry Re-
 publican Stronghold

Providence, R. l., July 12-Neither
 the Democrats nor the third termers will agree that Rhode Island is safely
 in the Taft column this year, and the heartiest Taft supporters will give no Odds that, if the third termers put an electoral ticket in the field, this State will give a Taft plurality.
 The belief obtains here that the pro- gressives intend to invade Rhode Is- land, because they regard this State as the stronghold of tariff entrenched
 monopoly and that the third term candidate is especially anxious to hu-
 initiate Messrs. Aldrich, Lippitt, Utter
 and others, and to force wealthy Re-
 publicans here to keep at home some
 of thA money they have been send ing ihto other States in national elec- tions.
 Democrats believe they will carry the
 State for Governor Wilson if a third term ticket appears. Already they have received assurances of indepen- dent support enough to reverse every Presidential result save that of four years ago, when President Taft car ried the State by more than 19,000 plu- rality, the largest in it's history. The Democratic State chairman,
 Frank E. Fitzsimmons, and other lead CTS, say, however, that conditions this year are nearer those of 1892, when
 Harrison beat Cleveland in Rhode Is- land by only 2,639 votes, than they
 have been before in twenty years, but much more favorable to Democratic
 success. even without; third term in- vasion.

of state.
 The s5.oe0, 900 was expended to carry both kinds of primaries.
 There is no reason why it should cost more to get the voters out to vote directly on the question. than ii costs to get them out to vote indi- rectly.
 Tn the one case it is between ATr. Roosevelt and MT. Taft by name.
 Tn the other case it is between them upon the choice of delegates
 The man who wants the delegates finds it as necessary to bring out the vote as if the electors were casting their ballots directly for him.
 Of the two means the delegate sys- tenn is probably the most expensive.
 The remedy is law strictly LIM- TYING the amount of money that may be expended. and DEFINING the things for which it may be ex- pended.
 Some direct primary states have expense limiting laws.
 The direct primary costs very much less in these states than the indirect primary costs in other states. So much for current error.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-07-12

respecting roads and their uses.
 What satisfied us well enough a few years since, is now recognized as a source of intolerable inconvenience and expense.
 Something must be found that will stand tip under automobile traffic; and that will not be unduly dusty. nor costly to haul loads over
 Tn a general way the problem, up- on it's construction side. has been solved. There are plenty of materials from which strong, durable and dust less highways may be built.
 The. difficulty is to build them The strasford taxpayers may be sure that good roads Will require larger ap- propriations than they have been in the habit of making. But the ex- pense will return itself. several fold in improved service.
 Stratford. with the rest of Connec- ticut, labors under special diffi- culty. which is the clumsy, old fash ionedi aHas inefficient method of the state highway commission.
 Under the Commission's advice the state has been building fragments of highway. for ten or twelve years, dotting the communities almost use- Iessly. here bit and there a bit.
 Millions have been used in this work. with uncommonly little to show Tor itt[
 The pride of the towns has been used to their own and the common injury.
 But stratford taxpayers may cheer up. Better days and better roads are on the way.

refused to put away his wife and
 marry into a royal family. Then the ruler began campaign of defamation
 against his son, circulating in the
 Continental press stories that accus- ed Louis of every form of viciousness imaginable-and the ruler of Monaco
 has vivid imagination in that re- gard. M;onaco's wonderful lOceanograph phical Museum, the German Duke of Urach received the honors of the hereditary Prince. and for time it was supposed that he would take Prince Louis's place as heir to the eight square mile principality that has as it's chief irn- ports easy marks with sure thing sys- tems for breaking the bank, and as experts the bodies of suicides. Lately it has developed that the German Prince also has distaste for gambling. Moreover, his choice while satisfac- tory to the Kaiser, would arouse op- position in France. It is quite possi- ble that the gambling establishment of Monte Carlo. without which Mona co has no excuse for existence, will be abolished before many years have passed. as the enlightened sentiment Of Europe is awaking to the enormity of the evils it fosters.

FIRST THINGS

The first convention of the Grand Army of the Republic, the organ1za- ton of Union veterans of the civil war, was held forty-six years ago to- day in Springfield, III. To Dr. B. F. Stephenson, of that city, belongs the honor of first suggesting the forma- tion of such an association of veter- ans Dr. Stephenson had been a sur geon in a volunteer regiment and was convinced that an organization of the returned veterans. for mutual benefit. was highly desirable. A ritual was drafted under his supervision and the first post of the Grand Army was in- stituted at Decatur. H., early in 1866. Other posts were soon formed throughout Illinois and adjoining states, and the first state department convention was opened in Springfield, July .12, 1866. On Nov. 20 following the first national convention was called to order at Indianapolis, Ind, with veterans from eleven states rep resented.

Gibbons for High License
Cardinal Leads Fight In Maryland
 County to Curtail Saloons

L;eonardtown. Md. July 12-The res idents of St. Mary's County have en- tered into a bitter campaign to ob- tain higher liquor license rates at a special election, which will be held on Aug. 8, when the voters will decide whether the license rate be raised to $20o.
 The fight for the higher license is led by Cardinal Gibbons and local members of the clergy. Sentiment for the innovation was aroused yesterday when a large mass meeting was call ed in the Court House here and a let ter from the Cardinal to Father Kelly, in support of the movement, was read. The Cardinal wrote that he be- lieved the solution of the temperance problem in rural districts lay in high licenses, by means of which the num- Der of saloons would be curtailed and the amount of temptation lessened.
 A resolution was passed protesting against the alleged attempt by agents of the wholesale and retail liquor trade ito bribe the manhood and virtue of the county to vote against all reform measures"

MORE USEFUL EDUCATION

The National Education Association represents 15s0O0 educators. The as- soeiation has recently concluded 8 convention in Chicago. As an organ Y nation it appears to be conscious of the serious defects in the modern school system, especially with the failure of education to connect young people definitely with some useful work inu the world.
 rHe Ass5ciatieIl went lon sfecord as faToring the extension by congress of plans for training in agriculture, do- mestic science and other industrial work.
 Also in favor of more definite at tention by teachers to the individual needs of children for training that VIII fit them for a definite occupation Iii fife.
 Tha advice is excellent The edu- catiepai system is largely a heritage
 from the past. The schools separate ths child entirely from the real work of the world. it him for nothing, and leave him groping for his future.
 The mental tests that are imposed are second only to those of the Chinese schools for insufficiency and failure to seek out the real capacitie, ot the pupil
 These limitations are imposed rath. er by the conservatism. of the com nnunity at large. than by the unwis- dom of modern educators
