SECOND DEGREE MURDER.
Probable Indictment to Be Asked for in Lambert's Case-PenaIty Life Inn prisonment.

States Attorney Charles E. Searls announced at the short calendar ses- sion of the superior court in this city Friday that Tuesday, May 13 a grand jury would hear the evidence in the case of Willis D. Lambert, of Killing ly. the negro who has confessed to the murder of his wife. and an indict- ment will follow. From the present facts in the case, States Attorney Searls is of the impression that he will ask for an indictment of mur- der in the second degree, involving the penalty of life imprisonment, Lambert is 60 years old and 1t is thought that life Imprisonment would hardly be more severe than the penalty for manslaughter. which he would be likely to receive If Lambert enters plea of guilty, as is anticipated, the case would probably be tried in this city directly after the session of the grand jury If he pleads not guilty, the states attorney may ask to have the case tried in Putnam.

NATcHAUG BUILDING COMMITTEE
Wanted to Serve on Committee of New
 Windham High School

There is very strong opposition to the municipal and towns machine ring project to place the control of the construction of the new high school building in the hands of the select men as suggested. The leading tax payers think one experience of in competency in building and hoggish grab that placed the lions share of the high school insurance in one agency is quite enough. Citizens will make strong fight at the special town meeting Tuesday evening at which women voters have the right to cast their ballots, to have at least three of the new Natchaug school building committee named to serve on the building committee of the new Windham High school. Any attempt on the part of the ring to play the false economy game to try to fool the taxpayers into being satisfied with anything less than first class new high school building, will meet with a decisive defeat

1t is proposed that there be ban
ouet Of democratic "leaders" at ST..
Paul before spring, and after the more
or less eminent gentlemen present
have their stomachs filed, they will
proceed to select for the democracy
of Minnesota. state ticket. There is
no particular objection to these gentle
men amusing themselves in this way,
but we hope they will not forget that
there is Il primary law and that the
folks at home will have an opportun-
ity to choose ticket, whether that
ticket be the choice of a we'll fed
gathering in St Paul or not. Because
our republican, brethren have their
troubles, does not mean that. the demo.
cracv of this state will vote for any
thing or everybody. The democracy
must win, if the victory is worth win
ming, because it has better program
of constructive and reform legislation
and because it presents men whose
records and whose personality are
evidence that such a program would be
carrid out if the opportunity came.
The democratic masses will want to
know these things. They have been
fooled long enough. They see no good
reason to hurrah for a reactionary or
corporation tool, simply because &c
may call himself a democrat. A man
may call himself what he wlshes-but
what he is, he cannot change. So let
the gentlemen in st. Paul propose il
they will - the people will disclose.

''The Girl Who Does Not Marry,'' in
the course of which the author re-

woman past thirty:
81 am so fond of little children and
the desire for motherhood and mar
riage is so strong in me. 1t makes me
shiver to feel the years going by and
hurrying me past all hope Of my heart s
desire. Life seems sometimes hate
full upside-down thing, the bad women
often having the best. When l see the
bits of girls about the streets holding
their big fat babies feel as though L
could die Of envy.''

Prof. Ross Of the University o: Wis
4:onsin, who has shown in many Of his
writings that he is fair and broad
minded, departs long distance from
the scientific attitude in his Century
articles on immigration. The article
IS one long, unrelieved pessimistic cata-
lsgue of incidents gathered to support
the extreme anti-immigration policy,
and must certainly take the palm for
z1nfairness. No ray Of light penetrates
the gloom, no recognition, even a
yrudging one, as to immigrant part
ia industry and labor-just persis-
tent effort to make the recent immi-
grant to blame foA every Ill in the
Hand. Against this narrow minded at
titude, may be set the conclusion of
,:x-President Eliot of Harvard, who
says, after long years of observation
III New England, that immigrants
have absorbed and chung to American
ideals and risen in civic standards,
while native Americans have lowered
both ideals and standards.
