MExtco,s PEACE CONFERENCE.

From the latest despatches Pancho Villa would appear at this distance to be strong leader in Mexico, despite willing to accept as provisional presi- dent anyone agreed. upon by the peace conference. at Aguascalientes, with the exception of Carranza, indicates an end to the trouble which he can be General Vtllareal or someone else, vil- Carranza. This confidence, to say nothing of the reception he received during his brief stay in the convention city, displays his power in the present Mexican crisis. FSg,
 The quicker. however, that the dele- gates can get down to business, meas ure up the demands, reach a decision which will adjust the matter in a man ner which will lead up to a constitu- tional election and overcome the in clination to start revolutions. the quicker they will be doing something for their country. If Carranxa or Villa are the stumbling blocks the quicker they can be eliminated. or eliminate themselves, which to & certain extent Villa has done, the better 1t will be and the greater patriots they will be- come. What Mexico needs is to have a lot of it's best men get together and push for the best interests of the country instead Of standing in the way and blocking the paeihcation, and reformation Mexico needs. This coun- try, if not Mexico, Is eagerly await ing the result of the conference.

MAKING pYEsruFEs

It was only 8 few weeks ago that this country was brought face to. face with the dyestuffs situation. Because of the denendence which was placed upon the German product shor tage was indicated until the trade with that country could be resumed 1nvestiga- tian showed that there was plenty of raw material for the making of dyes of just as good quality right here in this country, and all that was. needed was the developnnent of the business here. That Germany has in O. high state of development what we are neg lecting has been made quite evident, but the surprising feature of it is that so strikingly does this exist that there appears to be a. disposition to let it remain that way.
 Instead of being inspired by the sit uation and chance to build up a bus mess in this country in the way of dyestun manufacture, there is a dispo- sition to do the best possible until the war is over, but to depend upon Ger many for such production. When the exact situation wes revealed and it was realized what a handicap was placed upon business in this country there was promise of the demands being met at home.\ It was looked upon as an suspicious time for work Ing up waste and overcoming a DOT tidn, of our dependence upon that coun- try, but later disclosures as to the requirements, fear Of the competition after the war and, lack of protection Tor such, an industry are not eneour- aging to American capital and enter. prise.
 Such does not speak we'll for Amer tcan business aggressiveness. If Made Ia America" means anything, there ts no reason why it ought not to be applied to the large quantity of dye 5tuffs used in this country.

WHAT DEMOCRATS HAVE SIDE TRACKED,

4ssIn his letter to Congressman Under wood, which is his opening contrtbu- Hon to the campaign, President Wil- shn expresses admiration for the faith i'll work that has been done, the devo- ton to the fulfilment of party pledges and adds that the voters never have filled to reward real service. IA glance at the conditions in the ckuntry during democraticr control slows the '"real service'' which has bken rendered and which Is likely to be rewarded justly if not in accord ahce with democratic ideas. How faith fully promises have been kept Is shown by the sidetracking of such democratic measures as these:
 kNationaf direct primaries for the Rmfnation of presidential candidates isReguiation of railroad stock and bpnd issues. fRural credit system to provide loaao on easy terms to farmers.

SOUND REPUBLICAN, METHODS.

! The demand for better state govern | meat with proper regard for econ
 ony and efficiency is by no means pe- culiar to Connecticut That tt is need ed here is apparent from the manner | in which this commonwealth is pIung- 1 ing ahead into debt, meaning increased interest charges and state taxes where | a few years ago there was a surplus l in the treasury, but 1t ts also one of the needs which exists today in Massa- chusetts. The sound talk which Sam uel w. Mccall is giving the people of that state is causing them, says the Worcester Telegram, ~to recognize the difference between what they have had for several years and the real republican government with respon- sible men behind it. Years of joke government with the only emphasis placed on giving official plums to friends in the political faith, has left Massachusetts with more to pay out
 and less to pay with, while taxation has nearly doubled. And the Mccall information also convinces the people that the federal government has been carried on the same way. the short time the democrats have had charge of it." With such state Of affairs there Is only one solution. There having been no improvements in conditions, but tendency in the other direction, 1t is time for change. It is a quee- tion of personal interests and in this state as well as Massachusetts there is substantial evidence that the voters are impressed by the qualification of the republican nominees for the prop CT handling of just such problems as must be faced Between the democratic
 and republican ways there is but one
 choice and that lies with the sound principles of the latter.

OTHER VIEW POINTS

One of the most substantial and vital aids in the development of the youth of the land is the competent and faith full school teacher. Immense respon- sibility rests upon those shoulders and in the proper and consistent discharge of that responsibility, the instructors should have the undivided cooperation of the citiens of the community. They earn every cent that is paid to them and more, too, for that matter. There never should be a moments delay in the advancement of the teachers sal ary at the time specifed.--New Haven Union.
 Every town has to take care of it's poor and its schools and there is no way of getting out of it. At the meet ing this week in Winsted an effort was made to cut down the school ex- penses and it was voted down but the town would have been obliged to foot all the necessary expenses just the same whether the town meeting made provision for it or not. There is no way out of it. These provi- sions however, do not lessen the re- sponsibilty of the town officers in every community from exercising economy but it is not so easy to en- force it under the old town govern ment idea as it is under a municipal government with a specified charter- New Britain Herald.

THE DAILY CHIT.CHAT
A CURE FOR QUEERNESS.
BY Ruth Cameron

Once upon n time there was a girl
who had the reputation of being very
retiring and a bit queer.
As a result OF this reputation all
her friends and acquaintance treated
her differently from the way they
treated ordinary folks. They were
conscious OF her queerness. and that
consciousness affected their manner.
Needless to say. she did not grow any
less queer
Then one day there came into this
girls life very wise lady She liked
the girl. she was much with her, and
like a flower 10 sunshine. She opened
up. she became happier. at ease. mis-
tress OF herself. Al FIRST with her new
friend. then with others.
You have worked a miracle" ev-
eryone said to the wise lady. How
ever did you do it,
And the wise lady smiled "AU I
did she said. was to forget she was
queer and treat her just like other
people. She wasn't really different.
you know. only shy. All she needed
was to be taken for granted and TO
be treated naturally"
Dinerentness and difhdence are al
ways being confused.
And the result Is that those very
people who particularly need the sun
shine OF natural friendliness are
driven still more into themselves by
the chill OF formal and artificial treat
ment
Try treating one Of these shy, diff
dent folks exactly as you'd treat any
one else and see IL IL doesn't change
and improve him. OF course one
dose Of the treatment will not cure
