cred. There are four large doors open ing from the ground floor front of this addition, allowing perfect freedom of entry and exit. Here Is a department for the care of cars that may need it, for the policy of Benjamin IS to father all machines that go ont from this establish ment." As he handles only the highest standard goods, however, this is safe proposition. Here also are air pumps providing free ar for the use of all; rec tifiers for electric starters, and all the needed appliances for sending the tour ist on his way rejoicing.
 The repairs, transformations and inn provements that have been going on here for a number of weeks have wrought a stupendous change in the general plans of the Benjamin establish. ment. and besides appointing the score of large warerooms and show rooms the most complete and orderly Tn arrange ment to be found anywhere in the state, have involved re arrangement of the office room, on the ground floor. which greatly adds to the convenience and fa- cility of the office and salesmen force. The bookkeeping and clerical depart. ment will enjoy an essential degree of privacy, being quartered in a roomy and we'll arranged apartment behind glass partitions, looking out upon the expan. sive salesrOom, where @ veritable exposi- tion of valuable accessories and fixtures are on display in show cases, on coun- ters and tables, and suspended from hangers and hooks and swinging frames. Hence the general excellent character of the improvements is typifed, giving an index to the whole. as the most com. plete, attractive and extensive estab- lishment of it's kind in the state, fact winch accounts for the popularity of the Benjamin outfit among the most exact ing purchasers from the larger cities. and even the New Workers who make Litchtield their summer home. No au- tomobile dealer in Connecticut has such a large clientele among the New York Litchtield countyites as Benjamin. And there's a reason-they find here the goods they want, they find here the va rIety and quality they want. they find here the guaranty they want, and they find here Roscoe Benjamin.
 Next month, at 0 date to be an- nounced, MT. Benjamin will have a grand seasons "opening," when auto mobile men, demonstrators, manufac turers, owners and prospective purchas- CTS will be gathered together for an in- spection of Connecticut's biggest and finest auto emporium and it will be a gala day. Of that. more hereafter.

first intimation he had received that he was even thought of as a speaker, was 8 notice in The News, which stated that If time would permit. he might be call ed on to speak," However, he sald "time would not permit him to make anything like a speech" then he went on and made corking good speech. He said this section of the country had pc. culiar attractions for him, as some of his Canaan friends probably knew. He paid handsome compliment to the brother hoods and the good work they are doing and said he hoped, when he could afford to retire from active professional life, to settle down in the country-"maybe in Litchfield County"
 The speeches were interspersed with singing by Miss Gladys DeHart and John Bianchi, Miss R Ith Gaylord pre- siding at the organ.

SUFFRAGE-PRO AND CON.
IContinued from page II

Wage Farmers Anti Suffrage League with headquarters h New York City Its President is E lith Alice Abell, and it's Secretary Marjorie Dorman. This League was formed three months ago and is growing by leaps and bounds into powerful organization. Its purpose is to prove the inaccuracy of the statement of the Suffragists that the majority of the wage earning women want the vote, and it's policy the study of econoln- ic and social problems.
 A striking argument to this effect has been recently made by John Mitchell Vice President of the American Fedora tion of Labor. He says: Trade uu- ionism is 8 recognition of the fact that under modern industrial conditions the individual unorganized. cannot bargain advantageously with the em. ployer for the sale of his labor"

conditions changed. the newspapers found that he had faculty for keeping still when the majority were on his side. He could keep silent under provocation. He believed in waiting for the people to do the talking, and by March, 1861. he knew how the people felt then he talk ed. He had the power of the real orator to stop when he had had his say, as at Gettysburgh. where he said what was the meaning and fruit of the evil war, and said no more.
 The Governors speech was heartily applauded.
 Attorney General John H. Light was next introduced by MT. Roberts MT. Light said it was difficult thing to re- fuse or disappoint Treasurer Roberts. I've think u great deal of MT. Roberts, at the state capital. And like the man who boasted that he had seen a man who saw man who saw the Queen. we are proud to know the man who had shaken the hand of Lincoln" The speaker complimented the church broth erhood on this splendid gathering, and especially the ladies, on the excellent banquet which they had served. He spoke of the two birthdays that are legally celebrated ill February-those of Washington and Lincoln they seem to be astrologically related-W Washington, the Father of the country, and Lincoln the Savior of it. They were Providen- tially ordained to work out the destiny of the country. Washington was an Eng. fish gentleman, born under conditions imposed by the English government. Lincoln was born under conditions created by Washington. Both were giants i'll stature, Washington standing feet 3 inches, and Lincoln feet 4, with the strength of a giant and the gentleness of woman, who never used his strength except on the side of jus tice. A number of stories of Lincoln's prowess as an athlete and wrestler, were told by MT. Light. John Hay, who had lived with Washington and knew him intimately, said Lincoln was the great est man since Christ. And his life seems to bear out the comparison. by his sym pathy with the poor and oppressed. He excelled Washington in the use of Ian. guage-no one could excel Lincoln in putting thoughts into literary form. His speeches are classics. There is noth- ing to surpass them in all literature. He was guided by his conscience. He asked his conscience which course to pursue, and followed it. A number of Lincoln's $ favorite poems were recited by MT. Light, to show the broad sympathy and religious character of the man. "When we get to the point where we elect men to high office according to the principles of Lincoln, we will always elect the best man," said MT. Light. He was first Whig, then Republican, but in the present. estimate he Is no partisan al all.''
 Executive Secretary Kenneth Wynne was introduced, and began by saying the

Brain Property Rights.

One of the first amendments proposed for the new series of antitrust measures is an exemption of trade secrets from the operation of law. Trade secrets" " it may be assumed broadly, are formulas aud processes which, by exclusive pos session, mean prosperity and an establish ed field of business for the owner. Such as are patented or otherwise protected by law would not be included in the publicity provisions of the new interstate trade commission measure.
 But there are some trade secrets not thus protected. They form legitimate property right. property of brains quite as negotiable as physical property. and to publish them under an excuse of reguIative necessity would mean disaster. At no stage in the proposal to unmask monopolistic business has there been any desire to deprive individuals or corpora tions of enjoyment of the fair secrets of manufacture.
 The so called "trade secrets" against which the government may proceed justIfably are those involving restraint of trade by trust agreement or suppress sion of independent competitors.-In- dianapolis Star.

The Gettysburg Address.

Cast in bronze on a tablet in the Gettysburg national cemetery, adjacent to one carrying the words of Lincoln's f3ettysburg address. are the words of a letter by Judge Will of that town. l It was written in his capacity of chairman of a committee having in charge the dedication of what is now the national cemetery, and reads as | follows:
 "The several states having soldiers in the army of the Potomac who were kill ed at the battle of Getty ysbnrg or have since died at the various hospitals which were established Tn the vicinity, have procured grounds on a prominent part of the battlefield for cemetery, and are having the dead removed to them and properly buried.
 | ''These grounds will be eqHsecrated and set apart to this sacred purpose on | Thursday, the 18th instant. It is the desire that you, as chief executive of the nation, formally set apart these grounds to their sacred use by few appropriate remarks. It will be source of gratifica- ton to the many widows and orphans that have been made almost friendless by the great battle here to have you here personally, and it will kindle anew in the breasts of the comrades of these brave uedu WHO are now Tn Ene rented neld or nobly meeting the foe in the front, a confidence that they who sleep in death on the battlefield are not forgotten by those highest in authority, and they will feel that should their fate be the same their remains will not be uncared for"
 Does not this letter give a pleasing degree of human interest to Lincoln's words? Does it not make manifest the idea that the president was not speaking In any abstract manner. but, with the letter in mind, was responding very directly to thoughts then uppermost in the minds of his auditors? Recalling Judge Wills words do we not see Lincoln as sympathetic man handling a subject directly at hand rather than a lecturer on abstruse matters, or anything of an academic sort? Indeed, the wording of the letter might be said to lead very nat urally up to his concluding words. ''these d. ad have not died in vain, and viewed in this lght, think the great Gettys- burg address becomes all he more admirable.-F. w. Seward in the New York Times. ..-~~i
