FIRST To SIGN
SUFFRAGE BILL
GEN. e. M. LEE, NATIVE OF GULL
FORD WHO DIED YESTERDAY,
APPROVED MEASURE AS ACT
ING GOVERNOR OF WYOMING.

General Edward NJ. Lee, well known
in this state and a man of consider
able prominence in politics some years
ago, died in his 18th year yesterday
afternoon at the private hospital of
DR.. Palmer Snagg, of, 1874 West 136th
street, New York. His body will be
brought to Guilford, where he was
born and the burial will be in that
place.
General Lee was admitted to the
New York bar in 1861 and when the
Civil war broke out he enlisted as a
private in the 5th Michigan Cavalry.
He was. rapidly prom oted and, pass
ing through the grades of lieutenant,
captain and colonel, attained the rank
of brigadier general During the war
he was made a prisoner and served
IA months in Libby prison.
At the end of the war he became
active in politics and thirty years ago
was known throughout the country as
a political speaker. He served in 1866
and 1867 in the general assembly, from
Gui1ford, which really gave him his
start, politically. He made fully a
thousand speeches of note, in his poll
teal career and one of the character
istics for which he was noted was
that he was never "out of office
In his career he became acting gov
ernor of Wyoming. and was the first
official in the country at the head of
a state to sign women's suffrage
bill. He is survived by brother, Will
captain Of the Home Guard there, and
a sister Mrs. Mary E. Starde, of Col
orado. He has. several nephews and
nieces in Wyoming. One of his broth
ers, who enlisted with him, died a pris-
oner during the battle of Antietam.

RADICAL CHANGES
IN MITCHELL CAR

Departures

Although greatly Handicapped by
not having any of the new models TO
show The Elm Auto Co. has booked
a large number of orders for the 1913
Mitchell and expects a record breaking
year.
In an interview with Farmer re-
porter, F. L. Mills, president ana man 1sn
ager of the company, declared that
one reason for the popularity of this
car is the wonderful success attained
by the 1912 small Six.
international approval which has been
achieved by the Mitchell, must Nave

der every condition, and at all times,
easy riding and smooth running prop
critics, ability to stand up under more
than ordinarily hard service, and
beauty of line and finish: It is be
combined in the Mitchell at q price
which puts 1t within the reach of a
man of moderate means, that the
Mitchell is a favorite both here and
abroad.
''The 1912 little Six was such a bril-
liant star in the automobile TRINA
ment that owners of this car have
proven a splendid advertising medium
They are all boosters, and as result
we have sold many of the new mooeIs

1--WE have had numerous inquiries re
garding the delay in getting out 1913
models, and for the benefit of eager
MitcheiI-ites, let me say that many
changes are responsible. Never before
in the history of automobile develop
1nent has there been such a radical
change as this. year. With the intro
duction of the self-starter and the
electric light plant, it involved a ser
ious mechanical depression from the
well known principles, and to obtain
a device that would be simple for ev-
cry one to understand and easy OF
operation, has been a matter of much
concern to the manufacturers of the
Mitchell. They have been depending
upon the manufacturers of electrical
parts for their equipment, and the
many devices which were presented,
were submitted to a thorough and
rigid testing. until now they have the
most complete car in the market, with
so unique a starter and lighting sy5-
tenn, that it defies mechanical cr1t1-
cism
cat the present time everything is
coming along nicely and when the
New York Autorn obile show opens, the
public will be able to inspect in the

MILK BOTTLES
MUST BE MARKED
so RULES DAIRY AND FOOD
COMMISSIONERS TEL. f.
POTTER.

Unrest has sprung up in the last
few days among milk producers and
tributors, owing to the construction
placed by Dairy and Food Commits
sioner H. F. Potter on one of the laws
passed by the last Legislature. The
act as approved is entitled: 'tAn act
concerning the sale of food in pack
age form,'' and the first section says:
Amy person who shall sell or offer
for sale food in package form, unless
the net quantity of the contents be
plainly and cons picuousIy marked on
the outside of the package in terms of
weight, measure or mum erical count;
provided that reasonable variations
shall be permitted and that allowan-
ces shall be established by the rules
time by the dairy and food commits
sioner and the director Of the Connec-
ticut Agricultural Experiment Station,
shall be subject to the penalties pro-
vided in Chapter 255 of the Public Acts
of 1907. The penalty indicated in the
chapter IS not less than SIS nor more
than $500 for the first offense, and for
each subsequent offense the offender
may be fined not less than $50 and not
more than $500.
A few days ago, it developed that
Commissioner Potter had construed
the act as including milk, beer and
malt liquors generally The law de-
term1ned that its enforcement should
begin at the expiration of eighteen
be from January 10, 1918.
The number of bottles having the
containing quantity blown in them Is
hardly worth mentioning. The rigid
rules as to cleaning the bottle make it
prac tfca1Iy impossible to label them in
any lasting manner, so that the label
must needs be renewed each day or
two, if not each day. It will readily
be seen that the greater part of the
bottles must be thrown aside if the
commissioners construction is sustain
ed by the courts Whether the commits
sioner gets his cue from Section 2
of the act of 1907 has not developed.
The closing sentence of that act rea ds
THE term food as used herein shall
include all articles whether simple,
mixed or compound, used for food,
man or ANNA Isl
The order says a quart of beer shall
weigh thirty-one ounces, while milk
must tip the scales at thirty-one or
thfrty-two. Liquor men seem pleased
as well as amused that ffbooze" has
finally been elevated to- the food pro
duct class. They are not, however,
disturbed by the law since they have
found an easy way out, in having their
labels read: The contents of this bot
tie 10 cents or whatever the price
might be without reference to the
quantity.
President J. H. Smith of the Milk
Dealers Association has called a meet
ing of dealers and handlers from all
parts of the state to take action in
the natter f-s-- '4'--'.- -T-s--7
The indications are that test case
will be planned. In any event the
opinion Of Attorney General John H.
Light will be asked as to the construc-
ton of the law.

Work on Gilbert Factory Begun
Journal Courier Building
Does Well,

New Haven, Jan. 2-Work has al
ready been started to repair the Gill
bert Corset factory and the Gilbert
machine shop, which were considera bly,
wrecked by fire in the Union build
ing Tuesday night. In appreciation of
the splendid work of the firemen who
controlled the blaze in quick time,
New Haven Evening Union, sent a
check for $50 to the fund of the Fire
mems Benevolent association. But for
little water which dripped to the
press room, no damage was done to
the machinery of the newspaper plant.
The loss, according to an estimate
300
Although the fire started on that
side of the structure which adjourns
the new Journal-Courier building and
it was on this side that the blaze was
fiercest, the fire proof qualities of the
new structure are such that the
building was entirely unscathed.
