WINDING ONES OWN BUSINESS.

Minding ones own business has been regarded as one of the best virtues of an American. A viola tiOn of this injunction at once cre- ates wrath. Almost any one at almost any time has been justified in telling another to mind his own business, provided he could en- force the statement upon the spot.
 There is another side to this question. There is lot of busi- ness that belongs to another as we'll as to yourself; in fact, we are finding out that there has been too much of minding ones own business in this country. Every questionable transaction shields itself by secrecy and tries to ward or criticism under the guise of the right of conducting ones own business without letting outsid- CTS into the secret of it's manage ment.
 The growing prominence of publicity as remedial agency in correcting financial crookedness is simply another protest against the idea that the public have no right in sO-callcd private business management.
 There is a legitimate knowledge due to the public by those who seek tho patronage of the public, and many a misunderstanding and prejudice would bc removed if business was carried on moro 0p- rnly.
 II i$ easy in argue Ihai ihis can moi hc done under our present competitive system. but il cannot be denied that more and mnrc fig urrS arc being given io the pub lie regarding the conduct of nri- vatc business cnierprisrs.-Spok- cSman- Review.

FREE TOLLS AT PANAMA.

The decision of the United States exempting American ships from the payment of tolls for passage through the Panama ca nal is a decisive victory for the commercial and industrial inter- ests of the nation and, with the concurrence of the house and the approval of the president, will mark the accomplishment of the purpose which inspirtd the con structiOn of the great intcr-Occan- ic waterway, the establishment of water competition as the SurcSt method of securing relief from the cXorbitant charges of the trans continental railway lines.
 The fight for this right has been a bitter one. The transpOr- talion interests of the United States and of some of the foreign nations have opposed this con- cr>Sion. which meant blow to the prntiis of the great tranSpor- Lation interests. The attempt io invoke the provisions of the Hay Pauncrfutr treaty against the proposed exemption was resented by the American people and final Iy abandoned as unlrnabIr. even the British authorities making nc determined stand for the applica- lion of the provisions of that treaty iO a matter in which il iS generally considered the Iuil'd States has exclusive jurisdiction.

 Some meanncsS is so mean that many people deny that there is any meanness of that kind, and the papers smooth it over with legal phrases that few understand.

HANDLING LABOR DISPUTES.

Sentiment in congress iS re- ported to be very strongly in ia vor of the Hughes bill, which has passed inc house, providing for a national commission on industrial relations, charged with the duty of carefully Investigating the whole question of the relationship between employer and employee. While it is feared that the meas ure may fail of passage by the senate, owing to the rush of bus mess in the closing hours, it has received support which prac- Iically insures ifs enactment at the short session of congress, be- ginning next December.
 The Hughes bill provides for the appointment by the president of a commission of nine persons, not less than three or whom shall be employers and not less than three of whom shall be represent tativrs of organized labor, it be- ing the duty of this body to in uuirc into the condition of labor in the principal industries of the United States, including agricnl- iurr. Thr bill calls, in addition, for an investigation of all phases of the labor problem. An appro- priation of $iOO,O0O is deemed necessary to inc carrying on of the work outlined for if. If the desired end could bc obtained through the instrumentaliIy of this c0mmissiOn-if some equitable and satisfactory basis of agree mcnt between the employing and the employed elements of the pop ulaiion could be reached by it's aid-il would bc worth to the na- ton a sum many times greater than this.
 If is essential tO a satiSfactor, and permanent settlement of the existing contentious between cnI- ploycr anal employee that there shall first of all br an under standing. As matters stand there is a wide difference of opinion as to what inc relationship between the employer and the labOrer should be. Some employers have departed from the established thought on the subject far enough to take their employees into linn itcd partnership; some employers are going SO far as tn set their labor against the employers cap iIal and demand an equal inter est. The division of profits among employees is working well in some instances, and an increasing num- bcr of concerns arc annually re- sorting tO this method of solving the problem. There arc employes by the lens of thousands who take more than selfish and limited ' interest in the affairs of those from whom they draw wages there arc employees by tho tens ot thousands on the other hand who arc laborcrs under protest ant who have little thought and nc sentiment to expend upon tho firm, corporation or industry iron which they obtain their livelihood Then, too, it must be remembered that there are thousands of em-

Struck by Auto.

A large automobile driven by Ed ward P. Baker, of Port Chester, and owned by Dr. C. B. Keeler of Darien, struck and killed Carlo, La brucian at Manar oneck, Sunday. It appears that the Italian stepped directly in the path of the automobile, and that the chauf- feur tried to avoid him, but did not succeed.

To Restore Colonial Style.


 To restore the old time atmosphere of Litchfield project is on foot to have the exterior of the buildings used for business purposes remo odeled so to approximate to colonial style as much as possible. Those who arc active in the undertaking wish to pre- serve the delightful picturesqueness of this village, which has suffered not little from modern utilitarian needs and the encroachment of the business spirit. Litchfield has been a typical is to make the architecture of the en- tire village homogeneous and har- monious by restoring the architectural unity which existed before the fires architect is preparing drawings, which will be exhibited next month. The proposed changes would be met by voluntary subscription.

Last week the Herald said
that President Taft was a pret
ty good sort of a president but
that he had allowed himself to
be associated with politicians OF
bad repute and it was costing
him popular support. Pennsyl-
vania gave another illustration
of this last Saturday. Of the
states seyenty-fve delegates
Roosevelt will have more than
sixty. Taft had made it neces-
sary to vote for the Penrose ma.
chine if one wished to vote for
him. The people replied by
smashing the machine and Pen
rose has fed to the ocean in his
yacht. It is too bad for Taft
but he has brought it on himself
Everywhere it is the old
guard composed of machine pol
iticians on whom he is depend
ing for support. The five states
that have held popular primaries
have repudiated him overwhelm
ingly. Taft has stupidity and
stubbornly clung to the party
leaders trusting them to carry
him through. Roosevelt was at
! war with almost every one of
these i'll famed leaders but he
had such q hold on. the popular
regard that politicians were help
less before him. No president
IN modern times ever went out OF
Office with so much popular good
will. Taft went into Office and
the party leaders came to him
with dattery and he succumbed.
We still say that he is q very
good president. But he dis,
trusts the people. He dislikes the
Initiative and referundum and
silnilar reforms. He trusts
these placed IN authority. Ane
slle people are running amucA
among the party machines ane
laft is getting many 81 ths
leadly blows. Poor Taft.
