FIVE ROOSEVELT ''DOVTS"
Anti Third Term League Gives Req
 sons For Voting Asainst Him.

St. Louis, June 5-Ffve reasons are given why Theodore Roosevelt should not be nominated in Chicago in an ad- dress to voters of United States, sign- ed by Judge R. E. RombeAuer. Chair man of the Anti-suhird Term Repub- lican League. The appeal was pre- pared by Judge Rombeauer upon in- structions given at meeting Satur- day afternoon. There are thousands of signatures from all parts of the country. Among the reasons quoted are:
 Because most of us firmly believe that an upright, fearless, learned, in- dependent and responsible Judiciary Is the main safeguard of our liberties, and Theodore Roosevelt has done all in his power to lower the standard of the judiciary and to make its decf- sions dependent not on the law of the land, but on the shifting whfm of the populace and his own sovereign will.
 Because we believe in the constf- tutional Limitations which the wise framers of our Government have. plac- ed around the executive power, and because Theodore Roosevelt in his ad- dress to the people has declared his intention of setting them at naught. u Because in his unprecedented cara- vass for the nomination he has drag ged the highest office in the world in- to the rnire and held it up to the ridi- cule of all civilized nations in lan- guage wholly unbeffttinE."

MEDICAL RATE { CUTTING

Doctors and lawyers were among the first Of the worlds workers to organi1e unions and nx rates. These organisations were not termed un- ions, but such they were in essence. and much tighter in form than other oraffD have perfected inasmuch as they soon came to be sanctioned by Inv. and 1t came to pass that there Vas . "closed shop" to all workers in A6Ge he1ds who could not receive the aODsoval Of their fellow craftsmen.
 The Bridgeport Medical society has . WAge scale. which is presumed to 0uide its members, and from which they may not depart without being 0nethical, How far the scale is ac- tnally a guiding force among the fhembers is problematfcal.

SEEKING CHILDREN
 0F TITANIC VICTIM
NEW YORK MANS SON AND DAU0HTEx AT SCHOOL IN
 EUROPE, IGNORANT OF
 FATHERS FATE.

London, June 5Efforts are being made here to trace the whereabouts of the two children of John M Smart of New York, ws1o lost his life in the wreck of the Titanic Since his death Mr. Smart's friends have been trying to find his family and straighten out his affairs, but this has been made extremely difficult by the fact that all his personal papers were lost with him.
 When here, he told friends that he had hts children with him in London, but it fs certain that he did not have them on board the Titanic. It Is sur missed that they may be at some school in Europe, totally ignorant of their fathers fate
 Advertisements inquiring for infor- nation have been inserted in papers all over Ehirope and Australia by a firm of New York lawyers, so far without result. It is understood that MT. Smart was a. widower.

and at the reduced price.
 Here is-an example of rate euttsns and under bidding which appears not to square with the ethics of the Bridgeport Medical Association. --, May we not expect hereafter other doctors bidding for chance to do the same work for still less money? How csn the Beard of Charities decline to accept the cheaper services. especially if they are likely to be of the same, or better quality? ss. Egg.
 The precedent that has been estao- lished appears t6 be all rfsht for the taxpayers, but it can scarcely fail to work injury to those principles of trade cooperation which the doctors have so carefully perfected within the past five or six decades.

One fears the indictment is tod true. and that it's application is not sole to the Journa1-Courier, which is a. fearless newspaper as newspapers go and blessed with an editor, who as Senator Butterwerth admits, is a man of brains and ideals"
 You and I know that CORRUPTION has been feature of the state for years, although g lot of people do not another everybody acknowledged it. The state can never return to its old position of having significant influence in the government, of pre- sentfng it's citizens as leaders in this country AS they used to, until we clean house and thereby get men of energy, ambition. ideals above all our public 1ife,,
 For the glory and pride of Connec- ticut and for our common country, let US strive for clean hands and honest performance of the home1y duties of citfzenShip, and let us look forward to the resumption of leadership in the home life is such as inStfl1S the high est standafds and encourages distin- suished ability. f
 One error does Senator Butterworsh fall into. He thinks that half ste people are n1fsled by the sophfstriea they read in newypapers.
 No 90. 4 few are. The most are not. \ Iis in certain vAy car- ries as much education as the truth. Tie majority of the people are learn ing fe dfsfr1,st fffe y1eersssa nara A majority of the people are getting to read the newspapers for the news. They form their opinions for them selves. Had the newspapers of the country continued to deserve their an cient share of the public faith, the country would not now be the scene of a virtual revolution whose every feature has come into being against the absolute hostility of f0ur-ffths ol the, public press.

BUTTERWORTH'S
 PLAIN TALK

Former Senator Frank B.. Butter worth writes communication to our esteemed contemporary, the Journal Courier, in which he severely repre- hends that newspaper for its luke. warm policy toward modern reforms. It is not enough, Senator Butterwortt says. for a newspaper to declare in general terms against general wrongs What is needed is concrete opposition to PARTTCULAR wrongs.
 It iS the habit of too many news papers to dodge responsibility by cry. ing against distant evils or regret ting in general terms wrongs close al home. Asks Senator Butterworth:
 What now has the Journal-Courier done in this situation which has exist ca for years under it's nose in New Haven in regard to which I will give particulars if it desires?' It has con tented itself with general denuncia- tioI, or general conditions It knowi ana will occasionally acknowledgs that things are not right, but does il criticise and wage battle against a specific bad condition?
 Does it eriticise and attack with un. Iditerlng courage and persistence m exponent of an evil condition?
 Does It even help or back up some one who attempts to attack and fiehi these evil conditions or their exnon. ents? No, it does not,
 1t remains silent, ignoring the mat. ter and thus giving comfort to inc other side, or else it will sadly assert that this is not. the time for such . movement (And the time has never come for them) that the utterance If such and such criticism will only dis. turb existing conditions and bring dis. credit upon the state, injuring it's fair name, and ends up with g. fine eulogy on the state as though the city or This attitude, and the regular itera- ton of platitudes evokes the approval of that class which I have already alluded to.

SPURkY COEDs WON'T PLAY
Women of .Wes1cyan Refuse to Join
 Mems Glass Day Exerclses.

Middletown, June 5-Indignant at snubs which they say their sisters have received in the past from the male students, Wesleyan's last class of coeds have decided not to accept class day. They will hold their exer- cfses by themselves.
 For twenty yearS or more the wom- en have been boycotted socially at Wesleyan as q protest against tho continuance of coeducatjon, and in 1909 the trustees voted to make Wes- leyan strictly . men'as college, begin ming in September, 1912.
 The men in the present senior class decided to lift the ban few weeks ago and invited the fair ones to join them in their commencement exerc1s- es. It was thought that the young women would accept, and their refus- al was the chief topic of conversation about the college today.

THE CAMORRA MURDER

Not far from where veSuvius s1nold- CTS and Pompeii sleeps is the little
 seasliore village of Torre del Greco, where six years ago to-day was com mifted q murder that has since led to { criminal prosecution Of intsrnation- a1 interest. Back of the slavfns of Gennaro Cuoco1o, it has since been alleged, WAS q band of pIotters that included some of the forendost men Jf southern Italy. Mobiles, statesmen. high officials, even priests, are alleged to have shared in the profits arising from the reign of terror of the mtir- derous band of assassfns and black mailers called the Camorra. The trial At viterbo, commenced year ago, is an effort of the Italian gov. ernment to. purge ftself of it's fffa- nous criminals, although the specific charge is the murder of the Cuocolcs, man and wife. On June 5. 1906, Cuocoto, ostsnsibfy A weIl-to-do citi- zen of Naples who had amasssd q snug fortune as . dealer in 4ntiquitieSy was killed at Torre del Greco. Nearly two-s0ore slaShes on the front part of his body were typical of Camorrist Detectives declared that the man had been attacked and kttJ- cd elsewhere and carried to tho sea shore, where the body was found the following day. On that same night six years ago the wife of Cuocolo had just removed her clothing preparatory to retiring when two men entered the bedroom. Presumably they had se- cured access to the apartment with Q key found in the pockets of Cuocolo, then lying dead on the Torre del Gre co shore. In any event, the Keys customariIy carried by Cuocolo were missing from his pocket when his body was found. The fated woman, thus suddenly attacked, screamed once. Then a pillow over her mouth stif1ed her vain cries for help, and the deadly Camorrist knife-perhaps the same as had. killed her husband cut and slashed her delicate fiesh
 Their work of butchery over, the as- sassins safely made their escape. Then came the revelation that Cuocolo and his wife had long been members of the Camofra, but that, for the sake of greater spells. they had betrayed some of their comrades A foolhardy man was Cuocolo, stalking his life and that of his beautiful wife, La Belle Sor- rentine," against A handful of golden liras that he did not need, since the

WRECK IN LOUISIANA
FOURTEEN PERSONS KILLED IN
REAR.END COLLISION.
Flagman Fails to Stop Heavy Fright,
Which PIows Through Passenger
Train.

New Orleans.-Negligence Of a flag
man, according to railroad officials,
caused a wreck on the Yazoo and Mis-
sissippi Valley railroad in which four
teen persons we're filled and ninety
injured.
1t is said the employe, named Cum
ningham, was sent back from a
crowded excursion train that had
stopped on a curve to flag an oncom-
ing through freight train, but that he
failed, and the heavy engine plowed
its way through the rear coach of the
ten-car excursion train.
Cunningham disappeared soon after
the crash.
OF the killed four were white wo-
men, one a white infant, four ne
crosses and FIVE negroes, majority
of them residents of towns near
Mounts, La, where the wreck took
place.
Forty-one OF the injured are white
and forty-nine negroes. 1t is expected
that all of these, with the possible ex-
ception of three, will live.

Newspapers and Literature.

All this over emphasis Of the un-
meaning surface is due to a confusion
of newspaper and literary standards,
ends, aims. The word literary has come
to suggest an absence of red-blood;
spinners and knitters in the sun; the
35 cent magazine crowd; this is non
sensical, of course. In it's elemental
meaning literature is at least as stern
a iab as journalism, albeit the inten-
ton and function of the latter is mere
ly to present things that happen, OF
the former to volatilize such material
into lowering and potent meanings, to
strike the rock and raise a spirit that
is life
