THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL COM.
 MISSION.

It Is an interesting situa ton which has developed into an appeal to the legislature for an increase of the mem bers of the Norwich gas and eIectrf- cal commission from three to five The reason assigned that additional mem bers could give assistance in taking care of the increasing business of the department, does not apparently ex- press the full desire for the change Since the city has taken charge of the sion there has been a demand for in formation concerning the operation of the department which it has been felt has not been satisfied.
 There should be nothing secret and possibly isn't anything secret about the operation of the department or. the methods which are in use There should be, however. more inforIna ton available for the benefit of the citizens from the department than as if it was 8 private corporation. As a property of the city if is important that 1t should be given the greatest assist ance possible that the greatest benefit can be gained from it's operations
 The existing move Is made on the basis that the department holds itself in the position of a hidebound cor poration. Whether conditions would be bettered by making a political con lest of 1t Is questionable. If it is with In the power of the commission to clear the situation. even though a re- port as detailed as that issued by the selectnen Is made. they should recog- nize the duty to the city.

DEVELOPING CHINA.

DeveloDment of. China has long been delayed but through the new republic, which has been in existence for a period of a year. much better oppor- tunities are opened to progress along lines which will improve the condi- tions. The recognition of the new re- public by this country and many of the South America republics will have it's good effect though the powers withhold their recognition. All is not running smoothly in the new republic but the diSsensiOns are such that an agree nent should be reached without the repetition of any such trouble as has torn the country from time to time. Its greatest hope lies in overcoming 2 the chaotic conditions as rapidly as possible and getting onto a basis which will permit the industrial expansion and the government regulations of which it is so much in need.
 To accomplish these things and get the proper impetus the republic is in need of money and it has demonstrated that it does not intend to be hood win5ed into deals which will cause fu- ture embarrassment. It requires fin ances to get it's organization into prop CT adjustment and thereafter for the building up of the industrial system which must be developed for the prop CT advancement of the country. This will apply to all lines. but the rail- roads are going to have an important part in this work. There are but little over 5000 miles of railroads in that vast territory so that opportunity for all the spare cash of the world is opened for the benefit of China since civilization and better conditions fol- low the railroads. China has prom ise of seeing the greatest changes in it's history.

SUNRISERS

Norah was following instructions with vengeance, and yet so tactful- ly did she rebuf all that not one of her admirers could feel anger at his rejection.
 So it might have gone to the end of the chapter had it not moved some of the young men from a college. town to run over to the city. With the ex- uberance Of youth, they regarded the college yell as a palliatien Of all of- lenses. At last they entered the busi- ness district and descended upon Meeshan's.
 Nerah took to the kitchen for ref uge after the first onslaught, but the boys would not have it so. They sat, pounded on the tables as they de- handed that their fair hostess receive them with proper courtesy.
 Tim had just signaled one of the walters to slip out for policeman and send for the reserves, when No rah timid1y entered the dining room from the kitchen in the hope that having brought her forth from her retreat they might be induced to leave the place
 Instead they made a rush for the frightened girl, loudly demanding kiss for each, and though the walters sought to interfere-and the night walters at Meeghan's were not select ed without an eye to their pugilist1c possibilities-there was no organiza- tfon The half dozen men grappled, but there was still a clamoring throng about the girl.
 Then suddenly something happened. Back in the college a few days later there was a diversity of opinion as to the order of business, but it was the unanimous opinion that somewhere about the premises of Meeghan'S heavyweight champion had been con- cealed, for he descended upon the crowd and pushed them about as if they were so many of the heavy pack ages of papers he had been handling all night.
 Half a dozen of the Sunrxers were on the sidewalk as a reception com mittee to speed the erring students on the way. Presently quiet retgned in Meeghan's and Norah was sobbing out her hysteria on Cammack's broad shoulder.
 The others looked on enviously and quietly went to their seats Key had won and the others wished him joy, for they were good fellows all
 T tried to treat them all alike, Norah explained to Meeghan, when he arrived at the resta urant to relieve her at s R. m. T really did try, dad-but Roy isn't the others.
 ~To be sure" observed Meeghan, kindly "It's all right, Norah. It's treat them all alike till you find one that's different from the rest. That's the one you want, an you can have him if you want him. Buffalo Cour- fer

NEW gNeLAND,s coNeREssMEN.

It must be recognized by the mem bers in congress from New England that they have a specific duty to per form as servants of those whom they represent. The new tariff bill is one which particularly affects New Eng land and it's manufacturing interests. It is aimed to subject them to the foreign competition which they cannot stand and maintain their business on the same grade. and keep LID their schedule of wages The New England representatives in the house. especially those of Connecticut who are all dem ocratic should not overlook the shower of protests which they are receiving against the proposed slashing. They come from a manufacturing commu- nifty which is to be the hardest hit in fact from their constituents. for what ever affects the industries of Connect icut and New England affects all the people therein
 Consideration must also be given to the fact that thev are plurality rep resentatives from this state. that the majority of the voters were opposed to the principles for which their party stood, and that but for q split in the ranks of the overwhelming number favorirg protection and q tariff with a proper revision. they would not be members of the sixty-third congress- They should have the courage to stand up for the needs and requirements of their districts. They. have course marked out for them in the line of duty to their state. and another as the followers of the party pledge regard less of the welfare of their constit- uents and state. One requires more backbone than the other and it re- mains to be seen whether they have it.

IMPOSITION IN scHooI

Many are the states which know too well the experience of permitting the establishment of schools which later prove to be i1npositions upon the intelligence of the community. In the state of South Carolina an inspector of high schools speaks out in no un- certain terms when he voices his feel ings against an increase of any such institutions which lead the public to believe they are receiving real value when as a matter of fact they are not. In laying the fault up to the people of the state he declares that South Carolina should do something to pro- tect her citizens against impositions, if not fraud at the hands Of the edu- cationaF institutions it establishes or charters"
 Time is well spent which is devoted to securing an educa tion be it in the grammar or high school or col lege, but no state wants to sanction educational institutions which will mean a waste Of time and result in an inferior education on com pletion of the course The Inspector deplores the two teacher high school. turning out pupils with diplomas bear ing the equivalent of a training in six teacher high school. Snch institu tions he maintains should bear their respective labels.
 The importance of giving equal op- portunity to all the pupils is an aim which is not too high and South Car olina apparently has an inspector who is not only aware of the real situa- ton, but is not afraid to make if kno---- rhA state should profit from

COMPETING WITH EUROPE.

President Wilson decided well when he failed to disclose his real posi- tion upon the question of the tariff un- til after the election, until, in fact, it came time for him to address a
 congress after his own political com plexion. When he declares that tariff duties henceforth laid must be effective competition and the matching of wits with the rest of the world, he gives a poor outlook to American labor It may be in accordance with his New Freedom but it means that AHefi- can workmen must work harder or accept less wages, in order to meet the competition in which he would place them, against the low paid and the long working day la5erers of Eu- rope.
 In it's view of his position the New York Times maintains; Labor must now make its choice between wage reduction and increased efficiency and productiveness. There is no large-sca1e employer of union labor in the country who does not know that union rules and practices have re- duced the efficiency of his working force below old standards. while wages are at top notch. There must be an amendment under the stress of com petition from countries where labor is cnedpeT- II Inal COIHpetll1OA SIidl really become threatening, employers will as of old look to their labor costs for a saving. It can be effected in either way; either. by the lower wage or by the response in good faith of the wage earner to the demand that he put more of his heart, his intel ligence, and his muscle into his work; that he take larger account of the in terests of his employer, and pay less heed to the exhortation of labor lead CTS and agitators that he must dim finish his daily output to the end that more workmen may be employed"
 It is not a platform on which he could have stood successfully for election when he holds that the main tenance of present conditions under free trade can only be accomplished by harder work and longer hours
