LEetsLAToRs, FARES.

The question of the fare of the mem bers of the general assembly is as fan from a solution as ever. Strenuous are the efforts which are being made to saddle the traveIing expense Of the
 legislators upon the railroads wherein
 it exceeds the amount allowed by the
 state. This is in opposition to the ac- ton of other states, particularly Rhode Island. which has but recently placed itself upon a higher basis of efficiency
 through apolishing the free passes to legislators. Connecticut has been pay ing for the mileage used, but the dis coyery of restricting clause con- corning pay for travel. makes 1t un- lawful to expend over the designated amount.
 The state has been unable to secure any excursion rate with the railroads which would let the lawful amount cover the entire mileage expense. It is therefore the duty of the legislature to meet the situation properly. which should be- done by changing the law and thus provide for adequate travel expense. With Connecticut pointed to as being in the grasp of the railroads, it behooves the legislature to meet this traveling expense of legislators to the actual amount, and enacting new law whereby it can be paid. The plae- ing of the state under obligation to the railroads for the getting of it's legis- fators to and from Hartford is a plan which should not be countenanced-

ENeLAnp,s DUTY.

That was pathetic appeal which Captain Scott, the second to conduct a successful expedition to the south pole. made in his death message He wrote 1t with full belief that there was no chance for relief and with the conf dence that they would be sought and found, too late for any mortal aid to benefit them but with the vivid SreaH- zation that their accomplishment meant much to the world, but not enough to overshadow the need of pro- yfding for those at home. Reconciled to their fate his concern was for those dependent.
 He did his full duty and the stag gering news of the fate of the expedi- tion only adds to the glory which will attach to the expedition. it's accom- plishments and it's sacrifices not only Tn the history of polar explorations but in the worlds great events.

MExIco,s CRISIS.

It is apparent that the crisis of the Mexican trouble is pending. Much will depend upon the outcome of the pres ent attack upon the Madero admin istration in Mexico City as to who will be the next president of the re- public. It is by far the worst situa- ton which Madero has been called upon to face in his troublesome term of year and d half, the others pal ing into insignificance beside it. The situation is one of much uncertainty because of the f1clSleness of many of those upon whom depepdence is placed. There is an eagerness to be on the side of the one who is going to come out ahead. for political reasons as well as thus being best assured of continued existence.
 Mexico has been in an unsettled con dition for years. The outbreaks have concerned a number of sections under different leaders. hoping for personal gain. There has been continued strife during Madero's term but there is req son to believe that Mexico's future is just as bright under Madero as it would be under Diaz. In fact none of those who seek the office have any principles or qualifications which as sure anything better These outbreaks are revolutions in support @of no bet ter form of government and there is no prospect, at the present time; that anything better would be offered. The Mexicans need to be educated Ep to the point of uniting in the support of the government for the welfare of all it's people and the placing of it on a basis which will command re- spect and recognition. As it exists to- day it's future is clouded whoever is victor

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Our Norwich Representatives.

MT Editor: What do we elect our representatives for?
 After reading the little piece in the Norwich Bulletin yesterday morning, and observing the actions aof the two Norwich representatives, I as an ar dent supporter at the caucus and at the polls of those two men and as one who must admit that I was fooled at the caucus for I did not know the lit tie game which was worked previous to the caucus at the meeting of one of the "Iocals.'' I did not know that a few fellows had divided the fatted calf amongst themselves at the 'locaP' and that we poor fellows paid the freight not knowing that we had done it and are still paying it. thought I was there for a principle and later found out that it was anything but principle that caused that stir as the bunch of us now realize how we were duped. I thought I was helping a union cause and have found out idea of joining union They are the men I helped to elect at the caucus and at the polls and now l have got another reason to be ashamed of their actions. Did we elect men to represent Norwich or to represent some country towns? It seems that our men have decided that they represent Waterford instead of Norwich. The legislature respect to Norwich when they place those two Norwich representatives on the most worthless committees in the whole house or in the whole state. There must be reason for it. and is all the talk true which we hear about those men?
 It is certainly a disgrace to Nor wich to be represented in the manner it is but no bigger disgrace can be heaped upon the city by the legis- lature than by the committees the two representa- tives were placed upon, that shows conclusively what the legisla- ture thinks of the Norwich represen- tatives- that places theml Of course we could hardly expect much else from them when we consider the way we were fooled into nominating them. I have had my eyes opened since l was fooled I have learned lot and it has taught me to be more careful.
 believe in Norwich and l believe when we elect men it is their duty to support Norwich in every possible way and when I find that they do not then it is up to me to show them what I think of their actions and how they have deceived me There is lot upon this subect which l have got to say hut as l am one of those who have been made a fool of I will stop for the present, but you will hear from us later.

SOLUTION THROUGH MEDIATION

Though there was an overwhelming g majority of the railroad firemen who voted in favor of strike, it is the proper spirit which they have dis played in seeking to exhaust every possible effort to secure arbitration before reserting to any such harsh method as the vote sanctions. In seek ing mediation through the federal of fcials a start has been made on what will doubtless prove the solution of the matter and be the means of get ting the managers, representing the fremen and the railroads together on an agreement and an established basis for proceeding with arbitration of the questions involved.
 It is the method Of arbitration on which the parties at interest have been unable to agree. Each side rec ognizes the value of arbitration ana in that position consideration is also giv- en toethe important part which the public plays in such contest The railroads admit that the firemen are sntitled to a bettermer1t of conditions The engineers demands went through arbitration and they are working under better wages. There is no doubt con- corning the efficiency of it and it be- comes the. duty of each side to enter into arbitration for a fair adjustment of the method under which arbitration will be undertaken The same logic applies in each instance Mediation should accomplish for the arbitration plan what arbitration will do for the settlement of the other difficulties,
