Talk of Non-Political Ice Company.

 some serious thinking relative to the advisability of establishing an ice com pany for the manufacture of artificial ice in this city or harvesting natural ice enough to supply the municipality with frozen water that will be prac- tlcally pure. at a reasonable price. Mayor Dunn's proposition to have Will limantic go into the ice business on 9 large scale is receiving unanimous and strenuous opposition by nearly every business man and the majority of the thinking taxpayers who call the city rings mana cement of the municipal ice plant on a small scale a stupendous botch They will ask Alderman Mar tin searching questions about the lumber was purchased and why it was City Treasurer Scripture an order to little city icehouse over to him (Mar- tin) Then Alderman Martin will be asked why no other contractors were invited to bid on the city ice building. Mayor Dunn will be reminded of the Dunn Gates Cummings star chamber banduet at the Hooker house on the evening when Ice King Cummings of New Haven told c. E. Leonard that he (Cummings) was to receive S1,000 for solving the Willimantic ice prob lem. but that Mayor Dunn must re- ceive all the credit.
 The establishment of a city ice plant is believed to open the door for un limited graft and then too the quality of the city ice is an open question

Governor Simeon E. Baldwin Is Io come to Brooklyn as the guest of the Windham County Fair association on Thursday, Sept. 25, it was announced by Sheriff Preston B. Sibley Saturday. This will be the first official visit of the governor into this part of the state during the nearly three years of his administration, his trips into Windham county during his term of office nav ing been confined to visits to Wlli- mantle
 The fact that the Windham county fair is the oldest in the United States (organized in 1809) is one considera- ton that has induced Governor Bald win to save a day apart for visit to it's 1913 exhibition, and to arrange to deliver an address while there. The fair association will appoint recep- ton committee in connection with the governors visit. Executive Secretary Edwin S Thomas will accompany the governor to Brooklyn.
 The records of the fair association show that few governors have been its guests at exhibitions in the past-Gov- ernors Bulkeley, I4ounsbury. Cooke among them, so Governor Baldwin 3 coming is particularly pleasing
 Congressman Bryan F. Mahar of New London will also be a guest of the fair association on the same day that the governor is to be present, and invitations are to be ext ended to other prominent citizens of the state to be present. so that the day will be made netabie on in the history of the as- soeia5ioh.

avings bank matter appeared in

savings bank matter appeared in a Hartford paper:
 Judge Henney, associated with Judge Back as counsel for the bank, claimed that the bank was entitled to know how the bank commissioners arrive at the conclusion that the public is in danger of being defrauded. Attorney Ralph o. Wells, for the bank commits sioners, said that the petition Is brought under section 3461 of the gen. eral statutes, which is a summary pro- ceeding, and he did not believe that the commissioners were required to set out anything more ST Iecific; 1t would be more evidentia1 and argunentative ard more proper to come out in the trial. He said that the allegation is not made that the public is in danger of being defrauded before the expire.- ton of the injunction. He also said that he and MT. Dunning (counsel also for the commissioners) could file 8 more specific statement in an hour, but he did not believe they should be re- quired to do so,
 Without indicating how he should decide the matter, Judge Futile ex- pressed himself at the moment as not in sympathy with the proposition that officers of an institution into court, asking fer. a receiver and the forfeiture of a charter without giving the facts upon which such an application is based

THROUGH PLATE GLASS WINDOW
Captain John Murray Started to Ar rest Delor D., IS and Held to His Prisoner.

Deler Dumas of the Providence Street sectien of the city and Captain John Murray wrestled through plate glass window in Patrick Brady's store on Front street Saturday afteFneen about 4 e'cleek when the officer went to arrest Dumas en the complaint Of Ransom Bradley and others that Du- mas had been insulting persons who were passing In the busy section.
 Captain Murray said afterwards that 1 he figured that he could net have gone through the glass the same way once in 10000 times without being serious ly injured and the manner in which the seat of his trousers and the back of his coat was punctured with holes from jagged glass bears out his state ment.
 When the captain approached Dumas he tcld him that he might consider himself under arrest. At that the captain took hold of Dumas to es- cort him to the police station. DU- mas. who is husky. a fighter and gen. orally considered a dangerous proposi- tion, landed the captain a stiff punch splitting the officers lower lip near the right corner of his mouth and with that there was a clinch and the cap tain and Dumas crashed through the heavy plate glass shower of pieces raining upon them. Captain Murray went through the glass backwards, a number of jagged pieces sticking like saw teeth foot high from the lower part of the sash ripping through his clothes, but by good luck not pene- trating his body. In the struggle Du- mas was badly cut about the arms by the glass, but the pair held to each other.
 Wilbur Otis and MT. Carpenter came to the aid of Captain Murray and Du- mas was eventually handcuffed and taken to the police station. There, when the manacles were removed from his wrists, he made another swing at the officer, but did not hit him.
 Dumas, who has done some ring fighting hereabouts, has been arrest ed before, but has never been pre- sented in court. He will be this time.

Has Received No Notice of Appoint

ment.
 Town Clerk Frank P. Fenton stated Saturday that he had received no off i-' cial notice of his appointment by Gov. Baldwin as deputy judge of the Will limantic police court. Mir. Fenton said he was undecided as to what action he would take if he received the ap- pointment to fill the vacant chair in S+Sge Shea's police court. The reasons yi:s town clerk attributes for his pos sIble refusal to accept the office are these: CD There is d legal question as to Gov. Baldwin's right to appoint; CD MT. F'enton has already declined overtures to become deputy judge: (3( Mir. Fenton supported Lawyer Dana hey, the democratic candidate for dep- uty judge and his acceptance would be inconsistent and dishonorable to At torney Danahey: t4) it is the policy tand possibly a city charter provision) that the city police court shall be nom partisan: (5) Mir Fenton already holds the town clerkship and he isn't of that family of political hogs that is always willing to add another official medal 10 his collection. All admit the town clerks ability to fill the office of deputy judge and all outside of the Tanner Dunn ates- Bartlett ring, doubt the wisdom or eXDediency of Mir. Fenton playing with the police court political fire.

THOSE CITRUS DEMOCRATS

1t really is amusing to read now and then OF
efforts OF various people to prevent the Democrats
from carrying out their platform pledge to reduce
the tariff to a revenue basis. Now here Is the
Florida Citrus Exchange whose members angry
over the treatment accorded their Representatives by
tn Ways and Means committee and alarmed over
the prospect of such reduction in the fruit Tariff
that their product will be displaced by fruit from
foreign lands. They have issued statement saying
that II such Tariff is enacted they will "repudite
the Democratic party" Why yes of Counsel why
shout mt they? Let them repudiate. But what did
they think the Democratic national platform meant
Just words mere words? AS some one suggests they
presumably thought it meant Congress was going
to take the tariff Off OF shoes, woolen goods and
other things produced in the north and leave 1t on
tropical fruits just many Of these Northern man
ufacturers supposed that 1t meant taking the tariff
off of fruits and leaving 1t manufactured products
We have no sympathy for these poor devils OF Flor
ida nor for anyone who voted the Democratic ticket
in the belief that that party placed in power would
not do what It promised with the tariff. They surely
have no right to kick. II the Democrats-with the
President and both the houses Of Congress do not
perform what they promised they stuify themselves
We hone they won't do tho stulifyng act. Al We
have said before want to see this Tarfffor reve
nue-only proposition worked out to a logical con-
c,uson. Let us be shown" We yet see reason to
change our long established belief that protective
