PERFEcTINe THE SERVICE.

When the parcel post was put into effect the first of this year 1t was real fzed that as the shortcomings devel- oped there should be provision for their betterment and congress gave the au- thority to the postmaster general to
 make what changes were consistent with the proper operation of the new department Parcel post has been an instant success, making even a more popular hit than the postal savings system. It has demonstrated that the service given is what the people have long been clamoring for and that the post office department is looking we'll after it's requirements. Lack of faciI- ities has been the' greatest hauzrNFlce to the service encountered thus far, the amount of business having far ex- ceeded expectations. In meeting the demands of the patrons of the depart ment the service has proved adequate and a most important future is indi- cated. The failure to include books in the parcel post class has called forth not little criticism, but this unpop- ular feature of the service has been recognized by the postmaster general and acting upon the authority given him it can be expected that this will soon be overcome.
 Why books should not be carried by that service as well as farm produce and other articles of bulk is not un- derstandable. It required only the demonstra ton of the ridiculous exclu- sion to the department to make it manifest that change is necessary. It will come and it will be in this man ner that the service will gradually come to perfection.

WHISTLES AND SIGNALS

All the dwel1ers about came to the rescue, but Peggy, as her husband called her. was busiest Of all. She II was who connforted the bereaved moth CT by restoring her child to her arms. She it was. who tenderly helped the aged and feeble up the bank to a place of safety. Hers was the skilful hand that found the bandages needed by the doctors and helped apply them.
 It was to her that they all turned for advice and she seemed ever ready for ali demands. Some had been so badly hurt that for them no rescue would avail, and for the sorrowing ones Margaret Patterson found some ten der words of comfort. So thankful band was unin1ured that her heart oyerhowed with sympathy for all not so well favored.
 Morning da,wned at last and found them still actively at work over the wreck, but. one after another those who could be carried to their destina- ton hastened to do so, telling Peggy with slistening eyes of their 1l1.la thankful substantial evidence of their grati- tude. Many a bank note was pressed into her hand as goodbye was said she claimed she had done only what anyone else would have done in her place.
 Later came an acknowledgement from the railroad to her husband, whose devotion to the companys in terests had been so actively shown. and the rest of their life was rendered more comfortable by the return thus made for the heroism disDiaVed by the devoted pair.
 But their greatest surprise came a few years later on, when the incident was recalled to their minds by mes sage from far away. There came to them from the extreme west, a state ment that one old gentleman cared for by them on that wild night had bequeathed them a generous sum in token of his grateful remem brance.
 To William Patterson and wife it seemed great wealth, and they thank fully felt that their last days were amply provided for. ,
 No more railroading for you, Will Ham, said Peggy and no more anx- 1ety for me. We shall be happy with each other for the rest of our lives. AN TDJIE

STOPPING THE PANIC.

Little new was gleaned from the sec ond submission to examination by Col oneI Roosevelt concerning the Tennes- see Coal and Iron company affair. He admits his ignorance of many of the facts and conditions concerning the merger which he authorized with the steel trust and declares with startling self judgment that fI had a panic to stop and even if had known all these suspicious things which you now bring to my knowledge it would not have made a particle of difference in my action"
 This confession of ignorance causes the New York Post to inquire Sup pose the colonel was as ignorant about the panic as he confesses that he was about the steel trust2 We know that he congratulated Secretary Cortelyou upon stepping the panic by means of having nothing to do with the thing which he now declares to have been vital. Then too, Mir. Morgan stepped the panic and got degree from Yale for doing it. AS matter of fact
 nobody stopped the panic. It ran its course. And when the colonel affirms that his consent to a trusts absorb ing competitor put an end te the financial crisis he only shows how easy 1t Is for the men whom he describes as the most competent ts form an opiutcns to put enc over on hirn.'S

THE STATES INTERESTS.

Deadiocks are characterizing the ac- tion taken in number of states over the choice of United States senators. It is also a noticeable fact that the very same kind of @ situation is being caused by the progressives in such contests as was caused in the recent national election. There is not the least chance for their candidate winning, but they are using their votes against the interests of their state, and against their own beliefs.
 In the state of New Hampshire. which is a large manufacturing state, the issue which centers around the selection of the senator is that of protection. The republicans and the progressives are advocates of pro- teetion and their combined voting strength will send to Washington an advocate of that principle. The demo- crats lack but little of the combined strength of the other two parties but the choice of their candidate means an opponent of protection. The progress sives in refusing to support any re- publican nominee are standing out against their own interests and work ing against the continued prosperity of their state.
 New Hampshire shows 8 decrea SC in population in all the small towns, but a gain in the large towns where the manufacturing is done. It is ob- vious that it is the industries of the state to which they should look for the benefit to the state and the people. In such an important matter it would seem not only possible but the best policy for the factions of the party to get together, and prevent any step backward.

MT. Editor: Having read in your paper the remarks of MT. Waterman R. Burnham and MT. James c. Mac pherson regarding the auto ambulance for the Baclus hospital, and today the letter of Dr. Rush w. Kimball, em- phasfzfng the importance of the auto ambulance for the hospital, I would state that I am very much in favor of the said ambulance. However, we can hardly expect the corporation of the w w. Backus hospital to go down in their pockets to buy such an ambulance, be- cause. we, the people of Norwich, and we, the physicians of Norwich desire such an improvement in the the pres ent ambulance service. I agree with Dr. KimbaI on the necessity of such an improvement but I feel that we, the people of Norwich, and we, the physi- cians of Norwich, who will be benefited by the improvement should do some- thing more than write letters I think we, the people of Norwich, and we, the physicians of Norwich, should buy this ambulance for the W. W. Backus hos pital, and with that feeling uppermost in my mind, will pledge myself for s25 if twelve physicians in the city will pledge themselves for equal amounts. This will start the ball roll ing. w. K. TINGLEY. M. D.

BIGGER SHIPS.

New York finds itself confronted with a difficult problem in providing for the accommodation of the steadily increasing size of the steamships which make that city their terminal on this side of the Atlantic. It is problem in which not alone New York but the federal government is deeply concerned inasmuch as the extension of the piers into the North river as desired for the long ships is fast eat- ing up the fairway of the stream and threatens to become a hindrance to navigation.
 The tendency of steamship construc- ton is for greater tonnage and this is gained in increasing the size of the vessels in all directions it being the prediction of experts that where 1000 feet is now a long vessel it will be but comparatively few years before they will be constructing vessels 1450 feet long and for which preparations should be made in the reconstruction of the docking system which is now contemplated It is not alone the transatlantic lines which are con- structing vessels of greater tonnage and dimensions, as well as more lux urious accommodations for the pas- senger service, but the coasting lines and those on the inland waters are looking to this as the best method of relief in handling the business. The coasting lines have not reached the limit attained by the liners, but the tendency is in the same direction and pier facilities becomes a problem w11er- ever there is the least tendency to small quarters.

TEACHERS PENSIONS.

Throughout the state there is a re- newed effort in behalf of the secur- ing from the state of pension for school teachers, a movement which is in keeping with the action taken by large corporations for the retention of their employees and thereby increasing their interest in the business and mak- ing them more valuable in their par ticular line of work This same argument applies to school teachers of which the state has 5,277 but it ranks twelfth in the states of the union as to the average of salaries which are paid. It is recognized by large manufacturing concerns that the es- tablishment of the pension system op- crates to increase the efficiency of the workmen and this is one direction in which it would be of ackn nowledged advantage when applied to school teachers.
 At the present time there are states on all sides which have the system in operation and they serve as an attrac- ton to teachers of ConQecticut which makes of this state g training school for our neighbors simply because there is the added assurance of a pension This continual drain upon the teaching force of the state retards rather than helps for it is the ambitious and invar- iably the best teachers who are thus drawn to other statets. The average salary of the school teacher of Con- necticut is s561, while Rhode Islands average is s607 Massa chusetts' S757 and New York's sS13 and in addition thereto is the assurance of the pen sion. In regard to schools Connecticut wants to contribute everything possible to make them better and it can be done in no better way than by increasing the efficiency of it's teaching force.

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN
The Kings.

Nothing makes one much tfreder than the idea, constantly harped on by ignorant and timid minds, that uni yersal democracy necessarily means the wiping out of all grades among men, bringing every person down to an equality of commonplaceness
 But the motive force of democracy is not envy.
 Democracy glowers at present day great folk not because it does not be- Iieve in aristocracy, but because it does believe in real aristoeracy and is out of patience with humbug superiority. The plntocrat of New York the her editary noble of London and the kings of Europe, we do not feel pleasant toward them simply because they have no rational right to their glory.
 There always have been and will be genuine kings of men, leaders, rulers. all the more powerful the less power they have. To them crie common man is proud to look up, and to say mas ter" But these are the very kind which would have more opportunity under democracy than under privilege.
 Such are Dante, Shakespeare, Bacon, Lincoln, Gladstone, Mazzini, Wagner, Beethoven, Bach. Francis of Assist, Luther, Wesley Socrates, Plato, Kant, Pasteur, Metchnikoff. Koch. and the like. and. over all. the king of kings

three prison libraries shows that, with few exceptions, they are far below the grade of the average public library of the same sIze; the classes of history, biography and travel, which should be especially strong, are often filled with out date and unreadable books. It is surprising that detective stories figure largely in the fiction lists, for it would seem dubious policy to furnish stories of crime which suggests ingenious plans and point out the weak spots in the
 method of their execution.
 These libraries have received in bulk a large number of the old Sunday School collections of out date religious and temperance books; they are decidedly lacking in readable international liter ature-biography. travel science and books on present-day invention and progress. Such literature is especially needed here, for 1t is the experience of those in charge that prison men tire of

Believes Auto Ambulance Money Can
 Be Easily Raised

MT. Editor: I am glad to see that the suggestion made by MT. w R. Burnbam of the need of an auto am bulance meets with approval by others Of our citizens, and I hope the mat ter will be taken up in earnest and will result in its purchase. The arguments advanced in its favor by pr. Kimbau in your issue of this morning should be sufficient to interest the large mum Der of our people who sympathize with suffering and are willing to help alle- viate 1t; and I have no doubt the matter could be successfully accom- plished.
 The Backus hospital is doing a splendid work and should have every needed assistance. The cost is not prohibitiye. and I believe the money could be easily raised
