5oo LICENSES TO
 USE HOSE ISSUED.
New Statistics Secured by Water De- partment-Fairview Dropping an Inch Day.

The new regulations of the Norwlch water department that those who want to use a hose for any purpose thlS. Sed- son must take out a license has en- abled the department to find out 10 date that there are 300 users of hose in the city, with the. probability that the count is not all in yet. The lssu- ing of the permit involves no addi- tional charge to the consumer, but puts the department in possession of information which it never had before as showing what may be expected dur ing the summer time in the way of water usage.
 June has been a dry month so far, with only three small storms, giving total rainfall of .57 of an inch, and as the daily consumption of water from Fairview is about two million gallons, the reservoir can be expected to drop about an inch per day from now until October. except whatever help the gains give It is now down F inches from full pond, but there is plenty of water for the year
 Bog meadow is now shut off, having no water in it. and the basin and wa tershed are ready for the annual sum- mar cleaning.

ETToR-eIoVANETTL.
Norwich Socialists Hold Entertainment for Benefit of Lawrence Strike leaders

The socialist party held a social in Germania hall on Thursday evening on behalf of the defense fund of Ettor GiOvanetU. the imprisoned strike lead CTS of Lawrence. Fred Holdsw orth was chairman.
 There were selections by an orches tra under the direction of Miss Marion
 R. Chambers; recitation. Ingersolrs Vision of the Future by Eugene Car roll; recitation. How He Saved St
 Michels, Miss Burnam
 Selections were also given by the Mandolin quartette under the direction of Frank Pedace. Dancing was also enjoyed and the large crowd present had good time and a good sum was raised for the object of the social
 The address of the evening was by William Kellas, who spoke upon the object of the socialist party, and par tiCularly upon the Ettor- -Glovanetti case. He said in part;
 The cases of these leaders of the striking mill workers, who are now un- der arrest at Lawrence, strikes me as the gravest invasion of personal rights this generation has seen. and l do not understand how any person in this country that believes in fundamental human liberty can remain silent in the face of it. These men are in prison without bail, charged with being ac- cessory before the fact in the killing of a woman of whose existence they
 had never heard. What, then, is the basis of this serious accusation? Did these men desire the death of this Wo- man, or have anything to gain from it, or have any cause to seek it2 It is only alleged against them that they utter some incendiary words and that as a result of these words some person killed the woman. What per son? The prosecution does not know. What were the motives of the slayers
 The prosecution does not know. Now, the most obvious and simple principle of natural justice would re- quire that if a person is to be deemed guilty of melting a murder we should know that there was a murder and who committed it. In no other way can you possibly carry out the theory
 of instigation
 Human speech is capable of widely i differing interpretations; no human be- ! ing can assume to say that any words I had instigated any deed unless he
 knew who committed the deed, and l that such a person had heard the ! words melting to such a deed. It might have been committed by some
 one that had never heard the words and had an entirely different motive. | Tn this case all these elemental l truths are disregarded. Against this mOnstrous injustice every citizen
 should protest without ceasing; for It | is to the utmost importance to him
 that no such perilous precedent should l be tolerated
 This is precisely true, no matter
 what may be the citizens politics, oI 1 his views on any other subject ! I call upon all workers 10 recognize l these hesores as the working class on l trial Their vindication is your vim | dication and their conviction is your l viCtion.
