HAS EARNED A
 REELECTION

The candidacy of James F. Meara for Senator in the sOth district is one that appeals with inape1ling force to all impartial electors who believe that honesty in public office should not be permitted to go unrecognized.- Sen ator Meara was member of the last Sersate and upon every question af- fecting the welfare of the people. of Connecticut he stood true blue Con stant in his attention at all of the sessions he permitted his private bus iness to become neglected rather than absent himself when legislation af- under consideration. This newspa- per is glad to have the opportunity of recommending his splendid work and we believe. that the voters of his dis trict will see to it that he is returned by a rousing majority to further safe guard their interests.
 Legislators of his character are needed at the state house. The curse of Connecticut has been that for long years too many supine and easily influenced men have been sent to the
  raled by the representatives of the in terests and tilen-we1l their useful ness as a public servant ends. Sem ator Meara's record should be print ed by his party managers and pla- carded throughout the district It would call attention to his splendid achievements as a legislator. It's too bad that kept newspapers abound in this state otherwise every voter in Inc 30th district would be fully in- formed of his accomplishments and with such Information there is no question of what the result would be.
 We urge upon the electors of the B0th senatorial district to return Sem ator Meara to the place where he served with such honor to the state and fidelity to his district.

BALDWIN ON MELLEN.
(spaingneld Republican.)

NSQl14EAAS1Q ItCPuO1lCdu-3
 Gov. Baldwin's remarks at Water bury on MT. MeIlens contribution oi $50, GOO to the national Republican cam paign. fund of 1904 may be quoted in part as follows:
 The greatest corporation there is in our state, the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad company, gave $5O, 900 in 1904 to elect Theodore Roose- welt president of the United States. ] am glad they came out in the open in doing it, and did not sl1ulk behind his mere initials, as some bigger cor poratfons did, with their H. H. R. and J. D. R. But does anybody suppose that Charles s. Mellen. as president put down $50,000 to further Theodore Roosevelt's political prospects. with out supposing that his railroad would be granted some consideration on ac- count of it?
 There probably is not much differ ence of opinion as to what President Nfellen hoped from that investment What he got is another matter. MT Roosevelt had a way sometimes of dis appointing these contributors to the cause of "good government This actually happened: The New Haven was prosecuted under the Sherman act and then the suit was dropped.

Tariff and Wages

If this ancient story about the tariff producing high wages was true, you would suppose that it would produce the same high wages wherever it wee in operation. But it does not, and you know it does not. Wages are proportionate to the competition for labor There is a market for labor just as there is market for anything else. And if you limit enterprise as you do by perpetuating the trusts. for they control the large fields of en- terprise you insure the permanency of low wages. The only way to get high wages, aside from the efforts of organized labor, which have succeed ed, happily, in many instances. is to create a varied and increasing mar ket for labor.
 Do you see any violent rise fin wa ges now? And yet there is, increasing demand for labcr in this country. There is every prospect of Democratic sucucess in November, and yet there is boom on; nobody seems to be ner- vous about the Democrats upsetting business.-Fan River. Sept. 26.
 The tariff question is not the same question that it was twenty years ago. Any man who resorts to the speeches of Blaine and Mckinley for tariff ar guments has been asleep: the circum- stances about which those arguments were framed have absolutely disap- peared.-St. Paul, Sept. IS.

FIRST THINGS

The first potatoes were introduced in- to Europe by Sir Walter Raleigh. the celebrated adventurer who was be- headed 294 years ago today Raleigh also introduced the use of tobacco among his countrymen. The Salanun tuberosun1. which is the scientific name of the tuber which is now staple ar ticle of diet in Pearly all civilized countries, is supposed to have been native to Chile and Peru. At the dis covery of America the vegetable was grown from Chile to New Granada, In 1885 potato tubers were brought from North Carolina and Virginia to Ireland on the return of the coIonists sent out by Sir Walter Raleigh, and were first cultivated on Sir Walters so popular in the Emerald Isle that tlse common variety of potato is now usually called "Irish.''

WOODROW WILSON'S
 STIRRING SPEECHES STRIKING PARAGRAPHS FROM STEN0- GRAPHIC REPORTS OF DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES ADDRESSES, WHICH HAVE STIRRED THE COUNTRIES IN- TEREST IN A NEW STYLE OF P0- LITICAL CAMPAIGNING.>

Why Democrats constitute nearly one-half the voters of this country. Do you suppose that half of the population of the United States or something of that kind is going about to destroy the very foundations of our economic life by simply running amuck among the schedules of the tariff? That isn't the program, and anybody who says that it is simply doesn't understand the sit uation in the United States at all. All that the Democrats claim is this that the partnership ought to be bigger than it is. Just as many Re- publicans are outside The only thing I have against them-rny Re- publican fellow citizens-is that they have allowed themselves to be inn posed upon so many years. Think of saying that the protective tariff is for the benefit of the working man in the presence of all those facts that have just been disclosed in Lawrence, Mass, where the worst schedule of all operates to keep men on wages upon which they cannot live! Why, the audacity. the impotence of the claim is what strikes one and in face of the fact that the workingmen of this country who are in unprotected industries are better paid than those who are in protected, industries-at any rate, in the conspicuous indus tries.
 The Democrats are proposing to in- tervene and by lowering those duties which have protected special priv iege, expose special privilege to very wholesome, christening kind of competition. and then to adopt a pro- cess of legislation by which competi- ton will be so regulated that big bus mess can't crush out little business and that little business can grow in- stead of being built by private un- derstanding into big business, and put every man who is manufacturing or engaged in commerce in this country on his E1ett1e to beat, not the capital, but the brains, of his competitors.- Hartford Sent, 26
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-10-29
Eliminating Privilege

This protective tariff. so called, has become the means of fostering the growth of particular groups of indus try at the expense of the economic vii tality of the rest of the country. What the Democrats propose is a very prac- tical thing indeed. They propose to unearth these special privileges and to cut them out of the tariff. They propose not to leave a. single conceal ed private advantage in the statutes the duties that can pos sibly be eradicated without affecting the part of the business that is sound and Iegitimate and which we all wish to see promoted.
 You would suppose, to hear some men talk, that Democrats don't share the life of the United States.

THE STANDARD OF
 PHYSICAL PERFECTION

The head should be a seventh part of the body; that is to say. the height should equal seven heads. The old Greek standard was d little less than this. but our heads are growing larger nowadays in fact. it looks as though in time they would be too large for our bodies.
 The forehead should not be too broad It should harmonize with the oval of the face and should be one third of the length of the face. The skin should be white and free from wrinkles.
 The eyebrows should he we'll mark ed and should end at a point at the outside of the eye. The hair should never grow across the nose. as wide space betW cen the eyes is considered a great beauty. They should curve slightly above the eyelids and not be too heavy or wide. tapering from the nose to the end of the eye
 The eye should be slit horizontally; those shaped like almonds are the most beautiful.
 The hair should he thick and wavy. The most admired colors are blond and black, The nose should be equal in length to the forehead and there should be no demarcation where it Hins it:
 The arms should be large above the elbow and should diminish to the wrist. The elbows. without the slight est tinge of brown, should be dim pied as softly as the cheek.
 The hands should be long, plump, with tapering fingers and well kept almond shaped nails.
