POOR MAN IS
THE GAMER
New Ticket Regulation on B, 4
M. and New Haven.
ORDER MEETS WITH PROTEST
Three Months and Two Months
Tickets are Abolished, and
Tickets for One Month
Substituted.

Boston, Mass.-Protests are being
made by commuters on the New Ha-
ven and Boston G Maine railroads
against a ruling of the Railroad Com
mission which abolishes three
months and two months tickets ana
substitutes for them ticket for one
month.
The people who have heretofore
been buying tickets for three months
are the main DIRECTORS, as they will
lose the reduction that they derived
heretofore when buying three
months ticket.
The poor people who have been I'M
able to buy three months tickets will
benefit by the change, it is argued, as
they will be able hereafter to buy
tickets good for month at a re-
duced rate.
The new schedule goes into effect
on the first of the year. The Rail-
road Commissioners say that the
change was made because the rich
commuter, who was able to purchase
three months ticket, had an unjust
advantage over the poor man who
made use of the road daily, but was
compelled to pay a higher rate OF
fare because of his inability to take
advantage of the season ticket.

Boston CITY Election. Jan. ID.

Boston, Mass-Boston's next city
election will be the queerest in its his
tory. In the first place there is prac-
tically no campaigning going on. One
or two of the candidates are making
a few desultory speeches and are
holding small rallies. but the others
have not even planned to address any
of the voters. save perhaps day or
two before election.
Then, again, there will be the short
est ballot the city has ever seen. There
are six candidates for four places.
Added to this, there is large regis
tration of women voters for the school
committee, and the side which has
the slight shade Of advantage is pray,
ing for fair weather on Jan. IA.

Massachusetts, to Send 1000 Members
of Militia for inaugural Parade.
Massachusetts is to be
represented in the inaugural parade
in Washington next March by more
than 1000 members Of its militia. So
far the regiment of coast artillery
reserves and two regiments of in
fantry-the 9Th and Sth-with the
battalion and the I'd corps Cadets and
troop ID of cavalry have begun prep
aration for the ION to Washington"
excursion.
The coast artillery, under Col. Lom-
bard, has closed a contract for the
Fall River line steamer Plymouth, and
will sail from Fall River for Jersey
City the Saturday night previous 10
March 4. This corps will arrive in
Washington on Sunday afternoon and
will quarter-two battalions-in the
old armory of the National Rifles,
while one battalion has secured quar-
tiers near the armory.
The 5th and Sth regiments will go
all rail, starting day after the de-
parture of the artillerymen.
The I'd Cadets will also go by rail.
1t is likely that other commands of
the militia will attend, and military
men would not be surprised to see the
commonwealth represented by enough
troops to make two provisional

SEVEN LEARNED
BODIES GATHER
Historical, Sociological and
Statistical Societies.
ROOSEVELT WELL RECEIVED
Says He and His Sons Will 90 to
War IL il comes.-"Maintain
Peace by Large Army"
He Declares.

Boston.-History, labor legislation
and various phases of sociological
work were discussed by notable ex-
perts at the opening sessions of the
seven historical, sociological and sta.
tistcal organizations which began
their annual meetings in this city
last week.
The principal event of the days
program was the address by Col.
Theodore Roosevelt on History as
Literature. before the delegates OF
the American Historical association
and other associations at Symphony
hall. Col. Roosevelt, who is president
of the association, received a ire
mendously enthusiastic reception on
this, his first Boston appearance since
the recent attempt upon his life.
There is but one way to maintain
peace, and that is by keeping our
army and navy in such a state OF
preparation that there will be no
temptation on the part of some one
else to go to war with u.s." said Col.
Roosevelt at conference held later
of the Military Historical society Of
Massachusetts,
Satirical references to the war de-
partment officials under whom he
served during the war with Spain
were made by Col Roosevelt in the
course of his address. The defects OF
the army men were more glazing than
those of the navy men, he said. The
fault was not personal. but attached
to system which had made no ade-
quate preparation for war
Il doubt if in this country there is
a more genuine advocate of peace
than l am" he said, but if there is
a war will go to it and my sons will
go to it, so have, perhaps, as much
at stake as any one. | know my coun.
trymen; they will go to war at the
drop of the hat their national hon.
or is jeopardized in any way.
eff you teach soldier that he can
arbitrate slap in the face, he won't
fight. And likewise, if you teach
nation to arbitrate matter of vital
| interest to it, it won't fight"
Col. Roosevelt, however, said that
once an agreement to arbitrate had
been made between nations, 1t should
| be kept, and after his address he said
he believed the United States should
arbitrate its present dispute with
Great Britain relative to the contro.
versy over the Panama canal tolls.
The program began with the meet.
ing of the American Association FOR
Labor Legislation at the Cope
Plaza. A full attendance of delegates
heard aud many participated in a
discussion of factory inspection and
law enforcement from the viewpoints
of the employer the employe and
state and national industrial officials.
Various suggestions for labor legis-
lation were discussed with a view to
the recommendation of an immediate
legislative program.
Executive meetings of the Ameri-
can Historical Association were held
at the Copley-Plaza, and later there
was a joint session of the American
Sociological Society and the American
Statistical Association. The subjects
of discussion at the joint session were
Modern Tendencies in the Social
Sciences" and ''The Need for Social
Statistics as an Aid to the Courts"
