THE CITY ELECTION.

AS a result of Mondays election the voters of Norwich have, by a de- ctsive vote, retained the services of Mayor Timothy c. Murphy and the democratic administrators of city af- fairs for another period of two years Without any campaign and based solely upon local issues the success ful candidates cannot fail to look upon the outcome as an endorsement of the methods and manner in which the city has been conducted for the past two years. There was no sur prise in the outcome It was the logi- cal result of the condition of opposing party affairs of which there Is no bet ter indication than the decrease in the total vote as compared with two years ago of 424 despite the fact that in the meantime there has been an increase in the city vote by the an- nexation of Sunnyside The division of the republican party and the cheer less outlook under such conditions un- occasionally played a most important part in the display of disinterestedness and indifference in city affairs. x6 A
 The will of the people having H4en declared, 1t Is the wish of The Bull letin, as 1t must be of the city. that the administration will be, a success, that the affairs of the municipality will be conducted in an able, busi- nessiike manner, with economy and efficiency for the benefit of the whole people. and that the mayor and other city fathers, as promised by the head of the city government when first elected, will administer the city gov ernment for the welfare of the entire city and not solely for partisan pur- poses.

PULL DOWN THE TENTS.

Self preservation is the first law of nature. and taking care of what is al- ready possessed should be one of the fundamental principles of farming. but from the prolific crop of tent cater pillars wbich Is being raised in many of the towns of eastern Connecticut. the impression is easily gained that interest Is showing ths downward in- stead of the upward trend, and that the eaSiest way, that which encour- ages instead of discourages has gain cd relentless grip upon the man in the country.
 Nothing deserves strong, persist ent fight more than this pest, which denudes vegetation and destroys val uable fruit bearing property. While not a little effort has been made to keep down the inroads o< this destruc- tive pest the tented trees indicate that the workers were far less dfligent than the active moths. While the nests may have elaided the searchers during the cold weather there remains no excuse for permitting them to con- tipue their devastation of foliage and trees at this season of the year. It reQutfes but little determined effort

IF THERE'S A WILL. THERE'S 4
 WAY.

Experience has repeatedly shown that there is always a way for those who are willing and the report which
 comes from Stanford university in California is substantiation thereof when it is shown that those who de- sire to get a college education but are limited as to funds are not without resources. It is particularly pertinent at this season of the year when many are carefully considering their future activities that the statement is made that one tenth of the students in that university are working their way through on their own resources and what is being done there is by no means an exception to other institu- tions of learning. One of the import ant departments at most of the col leges and universities is the bureau of self help for putting the young men in touch with the available op- portunities for honorable employ ment and the list of opportunities is long and varied, but there is nothing better for installing in the student the importance of self reliance and de- termination to get ahead and succeed than working his way to an education. - Not only Is he bound to have a bet ter appreciation of what he is obtain ing, but if he has the push and gump- ton to work his way through college he stands an excellent chance of ap- plying those same faculties to his life's work He gets different and earlier conception of work. knows what it means and understands that it Is a necessary qualification to win. In business or the professions as well as in the university there is all ways-a place for the young man who Is not afraid to work and learn.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Administering the Law.


 That there is much grandeur and beauty in our great North American, automatic, self f-cocking system of law was revealed recently in magis- trate's court in New York city.
 A woman, janitress of an apart ment, was brought into court because the ash cans at her place had no and dignity of the city of New York and to the statutes made and pro- vided
 The woman was fined s2, and not having so much coin upon her per- son was thrust into a dungeon cell, where she would have lain until such time as she had sweated out g worth ty of the commonwealth, had not sey- eral human beings (to wit: Report CTS, policemen and turnkeys) volun- teered to pay the needed sum.
 Pass here the question whether a $2 bill is always a hoodoo and proceed to a more serious phase of the issue.
 This woman was a mother. Her two babies, Domenico, 2h years old. and Antonio. Il months old, were with her.
 This did not please his honor, who sharply inquired Why did you bring these children with you?'' A most pertinent question, set 1t down; they should have been left in charge of the second girl or sent for a spin in the limousine in the park.
 The accused. however, made an- swer: Because I didn't have any body to leave them with.
 Two dollars said the magistrate.
 The woman walled. She had no $2. She was ordered lock up.
 Exit she, therefore with Antonio at the breast and Domenico tugging at her skirts.

 Mir Editor: Just a word in reply to the second lengthy epistle about hered- ity. psychology, and what not, in your mornings issue. First, let me state right away that do not need to spend one and a half of my hard earned dol lars on reading McDougal on psycholo- gy. He is no stranger to me, and there are also others who are interesting reading, to wit, Georget, Haslan, Bur rows, Esquirol, Thurman. Herbart and Vichow, who have something to say for themselves, too.
 gument on this topic, though, I have no use for ranter. male or female. and something else to do than bandy words with one who. doubtless, has all the time in the world to specialize in them, These letters of mine were started chiefly for the amusement of some of my lonely hours, and not to incuIcate any continued arguments with any sort of a faddist-in words or ideas. (Havelock Ellis, by the way, gives a good definition of a faddist or ''mattoid," as he calls them. "A mat told" he says, Ifs one whose whole life nursues an eccentric and futile or bit of its own" He also adds that such a person is apt to be dyspeptic, and suffer the bangs of indigestion.) So much for fads!
 As to that cruel fair one who states that she is willing I should ever re- main a bachelor. so far as she is con- cerned, I would bid her hope on, for leap year is coming again. This little bit from the pen of De Finod is rather comforting to us wifeless ones. how ever:
 Bachelors are providential beings God created them for the consolation of widows and the hope of maids"

SAFETY sEFoRE RIGHTS.

As a reason for the sinking of the Empress of Ireland, the claim is at trfbuted to Captain Anderson of the Storstad that he had the right of way over the Empress. and that the liner was oh her course. Whatever may be the finding following 8 thorough in- vestigation, the fact seems to be that he proceeded to take his right of way over the Empress whether he had it or not.
 Under the conditions which sur rounded the disaster as thus far re- vealed, there seems to have been lit- tie which could have been done by the liner to have increased the safety of it's position or to have made greater provisions in advance to avoid such a collision. Even had it been equipped with a double hull, it is questionable whether it would have withstood such a ripping as it received
 Signals and rules are all necessary for the successful navigation of ships put there needs to be a liberal sprink- nng or common sense to go herewith if such catastrophes are to be avoided From the facts thus far secured it is reasonable to believe that had the same care been exerted by the man in charge of the collier as took place upon the Empress. no such collision and frightful loss of life would have occurred Rights of way may be hair splitting points between masters of vessels, but when such marine disas- ters hang in the balance discretion is the better part of valor. There should be a disposition to avoid accidents rather than to take chances and bring about such horrible results as that in the St. Lawrence river. Safety for all concerned is the only right which should be insisted upon in fogs where lives are endangered.

TRIBUTE TO AMERICAN PRODUCT

Just because the contract for equip ping an arsenal at Han Yang near Han Row, in the new republic of China has been awarded to a firm in this country, Hartford concern be- ing the one to receive the million and a quarter contract, 1t is being held up as "a concrete illustration of the grat- itude felt by China for our national attitude in refusing to be partner to the alienation of essential govern mental powers by the Oriental repub- lie as condition precedent to the se- curing of great foreign loans."
 Such may be the case, but until such a definite announcement comes from those at the fountain head of the situation 1t is more reasonable to be- lieve that it is due to the superiority of American made machinery. In this respect it should not be overlooked that it was but a few years ago that a large arsenal was established in Australia and the contract to equip that factory for the manufacture of firearms was likewise filled in Hart ford. That was because of the quality and character of American made goods. afiAustralia had reason to go elsewhere if by so doing the best could have gbeen secured, and there is req son to believe that instead of the Will son policy in China being the cause for the awarding of this second con- tract to fit out an armory in the far east, it is the high standard of eff ciency which can be secured in Amer ican made machinery. China may feel grateful to us in many ways, but it is unreasonable to believe that it would put through any such business deal out of pure gratitude. Oven China knows the value of merit. The con tract is 8. tribute to our product; China shows her good Judgment rath- CT than gratitude.
