FISHER MAY ENTER
 RACE FOR GOVERNOR
Middlctown Professor Says He Is a Probable Though not Ger
 tain Candidate.

Hartford, July 15.-I am a prob- able, though not definitely certain
 candidate for the nomination for gov- ernor on the democratic ticket" an- ncunced Professor Willard c. Fisher, l of Middletown, in beginning twenty
 minute speech to the men at Colts
 factory yesterday. After which Pro-
 lessor Fisher proceeded to emphasize the point that his political fortunes
 must rest with the rank and file. He said in part: This state ought
 to adopt rigid business methods of
 public finances. The financial condi- ticns of the state are bad. As late as 1907 the state had no net debt, but
 cash surplus of more than quarter
 million ($265,47O). Six years later,
 at the close of the last complete fiscal year, the net debt was $6,748,66S, and more than $7,00O,0OO of bonds were out. This Is not right; and 1t can be
 changed without impairing the public services. The checking of over-lavish
 outlay in some of the departments and the correction of some obvious injustices in taxation would restore
 the proper balance of the funds.
 T believe in public control of poli-
 tics. We have to have leaders, but not bosses, and stand for direct pri-
 maries and nominations by petition"
 "The personal tax must be abol- ished. It works direct hardship
 upon men like you, and is very ex- pensive of collection. Where the or- dinary tax costs about 1 per cent to collect, the personal tax costs more than 10 per cent. And if man does not pay the personal tax he goes to jail, and what justice is there in such law when no one goes to jail for not paying property taxes and income taxes?"

HOLDS HEARING ON
 HIS OWN ACCIDENT
Secretary Phillips Finds That Under
 The Law No One Else Could Hear Auto Accident Case.

Hartford, Conn, July 15.-Secre- tary Albert Phillips yesterday held a hearing on the collision which oc- cured between his own car, driven by Joseph Tedesco, and a motor cycle ridden by Philip Carlson on June IT,. A number of witnesses testified, in- cluding Tedesco who said that at the time of the accident, the Phillips car was running slowly while the motor came zigzagging down the road at lively pace. Secretary Phillips said that he had hoped to have someone else hear this case, but found under the law no one else could do so. He in tended however, to have the attorney general review the evidence.
 Jacob Klein of Bridgeport, counsel for the accused, objected to the case being heard and asked that 1t be dis missed. He contended that as the secretary was an interested party he could not sit on the case and that as there was no one else under the law to hear the case, it should be dis missed.
 His motion was overruled. The case was finally continued until next Tuesday morning.

MAY DROP BILLIARD.
Report That Directors Will Take
 Action Against Meriden Man.

New Haven, July 15.-There was a r.port that gained some currency yesterday to the effect that at the meeting of the directors of the New Haven road in New York tomorrow John l.. Billiard of Meriden would be dropped from membership on the board. The report was to the effect that the action was the result of the recent attacks on deals of the New Haven in which MT. Billiard was con- rected with the propositions and the report claimed that 1t was the senti- ment that some action should be taken by the board.
 James Hemingway, a director of the road residing in this city, when asked about the matter last night declared that he knew nothing about any such action and did not know what would be rome at the meeting. Further than this he did not care to discuss the report.

resent Ln0lT interests.
 Raps 'POrk'' Charges.
 "So far as the charges go that the present River and Harbor bill con- tains an unlimited amount of pork I am happy to state that in so far as the engineer corps is concerned, there has been no recommendation made that has not been the subject of close and painstaking study. The act of 1902 provides that after con- gress has ordered a survey of pro- ject, the local or district engineer reports upon the, advisability, ade- quacy, cost and commercial import ance of the improvements. This re- port is, in turn, referred to the divi- sion engineer who approves or mod flies it as the facts appear before him. From the division engineer the re- 5port goes to the board of engineers for rivers and harbors, who examine it with scrupulous care, giving their approval if the project be meritori- ous, and finally it reaches the chief of engineers to be examined by him with just as much discrimination as was shown the project by those be- low. At each stage of the proceed ing local interests may be heard,
 
 provement, and then. after it re- ceives the stamp of approval of the chief of engineers, it. is transmitted to the secretary Of war, who, in turn, sends it to congress for legislation on the subject. .,,s.
 "I1 it not fair to assume, in view of the careful investigation that Is given every individual project by the corps of engineers engaged in river and harbof work, that anything that looks like pork will be discovered by this body of trained engineers, and will be reported upon adversely? It is ridiculous to believe otherwise, for the entire corps is jealous to 8 de- gree of its good name and it's reputa- tion for clean methods as the ser- wants of the people.
 Criticism Most Unwarranted.
 "The criticism that is being made against certain appropriations for creeks, as carried in the river and harbor bill, is also most unwar- ranted. What would an appropria- tion of $5,000 accomplish for the mouth of the Mississippi or the Am- prose channel? You might just as well shovel that many dollars into the sea as to expect 1t to make an impression upon either of these two big projects But .$5,OOO spent on a creek may be the difference between increased freight movement, or the absolute abandonment of the stream as a means of transportation. There are numberless creeks in the United States-the word creek being but a. local designation for stream-whose tonnage rival mighty rivers, and a few thousand dollars spent upon them means the development of sections that otherwise would remain virgin soil. It means increased crops, in- creased markets, and increased pros- perity.
 My judgment is that there is less than one-half of one per cent. pork l in the river and harpor bill now 1 pending in the senate.-

and afraid for the future Is it not
the same citizenship that has accom-
pushed the present Oklahoma out CT

pleasures we had also the trials and
troubles incident thereto, and that the
future promises for ourselves and
