SUMS UP THE SITUATION.
lHartford Tfmesl


 Chairman Hi11es of the national re- publican committee, addressing the republican .congressi onal convention
 which recently nominated B. J. Hill in the Fourth district, took occasion to remark: tConnectfcut is a cipher in the house of representatives,; and, indeed, New Englandss voice in the lower house is suppressed.' Connec- ucut's representatives have not sought, Hill fashion, to fill page after page of the Congressional Record, and then to give their addresses ad- ditional circulation by special leaf lets; but peFusual of their achieve ments will show they have been in- fluentta-l in securing a maximum of helpful legislation; that they have been more regularly and continuous ly at their task than any other dele gation in a long series of years; that they have received respectful atten- ton when peaking=perhaps because it was known they were not given

BOSTON.

Boston was christened on this date, September 17th, in 1880, the site of the future New England metropolis having been known up to that date as Tri- mountain. Boston was settled in that year by a party of Puritans from Sa- lem. Most of the colonists hailed from the Lincolnshire town of Boston, hence the choice of that name for their New World home. The English Bos- ton is a seaport in Lincolnshire, 107 miles northeast of London. It's name is contraction Of Botolphs Town, and it is commonly supposed to occupy the site Of a Benedictine Abbey establish- ed by St. Boto1ph in 654, and destroyed by the invading Danes in S70 St. Boto1ph's Church, erected about six centuries ago and restored in 1843, is the show place of the English Boston. Bq8olph or Botulph, the patron saint [of SBoston, was abbot of Ikanho, and died about 655. His festival is cele- brated on the seventeenth of June, on which date the battle of Bunker HiI1 was fought in 1755. The English Bos- ton was the birthp1aee of F'oxe, the martyrelogist, and Herbert Ingram, founder of the Illustrated London News and father of illustrated journal ism

HILL. OF NORWALK.
CHartford Post.)


 In nominating Ex-Congressman Ebenezer J. Hill Of Norwalk for rep resentative, the Republicans of the Fourth district have fulfilled expecta- tions. They are confident that they will be able to elect the apostle of calamity The Democrats are ex- pected to renorninate Congressman Donovan. The presence of the two men on the stump will furnish plenty of entertainment for Fairfield county.
 Possibly the Republicans of the dis trict felt that MT. Hill had a logical claim to a. chance to vindicate him self Certainly there is no other good reason for sending him back to congress. Hill is a tariff wor-. shipper, as a member Of the present congress, had he sat in 1t he would have been an obstructionist pure and simple. Had Hill been a member of congress he would have opposed the Underwood tariff bill. He would have opposed the currency bill. He would have opposed all Of the pend ing trust legislation which is feceiv- ing votes of republicans as well as democrats. He would have opposed the policy which kept us out of war with Mexco-he would have opposed everything that woodrow Wilson has accomp lished.
 It is conceded that the president and his policies have made good, that they have the approval of the Ameri- can people. Therefore 1t is perth ent to ask will the voters of the Fourth district send back to congress as their Representative in legislation a man who is opposed to these policies of which they approve2
 And then, during the progress of the campaign some one may ask Un- cle Ebenezer about the Eagle Lock works incident, when the Terryville factory he was accused of owning but claimed he didn't, found itself in such bad condition as the result Of the tarih legislation that 1t was obliged to run a night shift as we'll as a day shift to keep up with orders, If someone h1rls that question at MT Hill during the progress of his speech the ensuing incidents would be worth travelling miles to see

JUST THE SAME
 ONLY DIFFERENT.
Hartford Tlmes)

We are indebted to the Hartford Courant for calling attention to a statement in The Times on Saturday, although for some strange reason 1t used only half the sentence in ques- ton and thus conveyed meaning ex actIy opposite to that plainly express ed in The Times. Here is what was quoted:
 The nomination of Ebenezer J Hill as the republican candidate for con- gress in the Fourth district will give the voters of that district just the opportunity they have been seeking,
 And here is the remainder of the sentence; note that the clause above ends with a comma, and is merely in troductory to second phrase: namely one more chance to regis ter their disapproval of his high tar if doctrines. his altitude towards la Dor and his personal and party methods.
 Now let us put them together as they originally appeared. It would be imp to express more plain ly the idea that in nominating MT. Hill the republican convention gave the voters of the state a new oppor- tunity to register their disapprovaI of his high tariff doctrines,s his at titude towards labor and his personal and party methods.''
 It does not help much that our neighbor remarks casually that it does not print the whole of the sentence What it ornits is the pith and sub- stance of the whole. The impression sought to be conveyed is utterly diff ferent from that plainly expressed in the original It would be hard Sto find g, better example of that jug gIery with words which was contem- plated in the Latin phrase familiar to all lawyers: stSuppressio veri; sug- getio falsi. 2

FOREIGN STUDENTS AND
 THE UNITED STATES

Convinced that one of the results of the present European war will be to interest foreign students in opportuni- ties for education in the United States pr. F.. P, C1axton, United States Com missioner of Education. has author ized the immediate pre- earation and publication of a special bulletin de- scribi2g the immediate preparation and Jublication Of a special bulletin describing, for the use of foreign stu. dents. the facilities for professional and collegiate study in higher instI- t1tions of learning in this country. The bulletin will be printed in several Ian-1 guages.
 This is Americas opportunity" de- cIares Commissioners C1a.xton. sThous- ands of students who have been at tending universities in Europe will be obliged to look elsewhere for higher education. not only this year, but per- haps for years to come Many for eign students are already coming to us, many more will come as the re-. suit, direct and indirect, or present events.
 we have now a supreme oppor- tunity to demonstrate our capacity for intellectual leadership Whether the war continues three months or three years. our opportunities and obliga- and civilization will be the same, and America. should respond by offering the best opportunity in the world for her own students and for those who may come from other countries.
 "In the case of South America this student migration will be facilitated by the opportune opening Of the Panama Canal. Students from the western coast Of South America will find it all luringIy convenient to go via the Car nal to educational centers in the Uni. ted States.
 ssvVithin the last two decades the in crease in opportunity for graduate study and research. and for profess ionaI and technical education has been very remarkable, much greater than most people even in America realize. The recent raising of standards and the better equipment of medical schools. the large endowments and ap- p-opriations for all forms of engineer ing, the marvellous growth of our col leges of agriculture. the development of colleges andf schools of education, and the rapid increase in income of all the better colleges make it impossible for this country to take the lead in education in a way that would have been impossible even at the beginning of the century.

The election of Oakley c. Curtis, mayor of Portland, Me, as governor of Maine was 8 decisive victory for the Democrats. The result pleased the Democratic administration at Washington. Both Curtis and Gov ernor William IT.. Haines, Republican, ran ahead of the vote for Wilson and Taft. The Progressive vote fell off heavily. Maine is normally rock ribbed Republican state, but the in- roads of the Progressives, with the in creased Democratic vote, turned the tide. x

sAcCARo ACTED RIGHTLY.

After celebrating over the sworn
testimony, all OF which had been taken

sioners yesterday came to the conciu-
sion that Officer Dan Saccaro acted
quite. right in the case wherein he
was charged with undue severity in
effecting the arrest of a soldier, Prt-
vate Whitehead, from Fort Barrancas.
This was the case in which the Of
ficer figured recently in an invest-
cation prompted by complaints which
were lodged by officers at Fort Bar
rancas. Private Whitehead was per-
manently disfigured in a fight which
took place when he was arrested by
Officer Saccarc a few weeks ago. Wit
nesses swore that the soldier had been
struck by the policeman, but the lat
ter, as well as number OF witnesses.
swore to the contrary. The permanent
injuries consisted in the loss Of an eye
by the soldier, who was said to have
been intoxicated and fighting mad
when he was arrested after having
been warned.
