THE HARTFORD ELECTION

A N EXAMINATION of the Fourth Ward 4 A voting machine showed defect in the mechanism. The wheel recording Mr. Law Ier's vote damned, and did not turn over when trial was made Thereupon Hartford's chief modsegE3ator declared MT. Lawler elected.
 The failure of the machine is not neces- sarily conclusive that voting by ballot is better than voting by machine. The machine may have been tampered with, or the difficulty may have been caused by accident.
 But the paper ballot may be tampered with, and errors may be made in counting if.
 In the whole the errors arising from paper baloting seem to be more numerous than those from machine balloting.
 The election of MT. Lawler is most gratify- ing and we are convinced that the city which has chosen him for such high honors will find Tn him a servant responsive to the needs of the municipality. His splendid run against Mayor Cheney. himself a candidate of unusual strength. attests the estimate which his native city holds of him and unless we are mistaken he will face the responsibilities which this day become his unflinchingly and with an eye single to the best interests of all of the people, Mayor Gheney's attitude in declining to con test the matter in view of the obvious intent of the electorate is greatly to his credit and is certain to win for him unstinted commenda- ton from friend and foe.

MIR. COMLEY'S OPINION

THE CRUX of City Attorney Comley's
 4 opinion, in which he says that women cannot legally vote upon the school bonds, hinges upon the use of the word electors in the home rule bonding act His view of that law is that women voters, but not electors, and he attaches to the latter word the close, legal significance which it has under the Con necticut statutes and court decisions.
 Nevertheless, the law does say that women shall have the right to vote upon all matters relating to education and schools. A bond is sue, the proceeds of which are to be used for the erection of schools, is clearly matter nected with education.
 The opinion of the city attorney, therefore, makes statute exclude and override other However necessary his view may be from the narrow and extremely technical standpoint of legality, it is certainly true that the law by which women may be prevented from voting Is obtained BY THE STRICT CON STRUCTION OF A STATUTE, while the law by which they claim the right to vote, GRANTS THEM THAT RIGHT IN THE BROADEST TERMS.
 It is probably fortunate for the school bond program of the admin istration that women are not to be permitted to vote
 There are some 800 women registered on the lists. While of these dead, and some removed to other cities there are many who would have the right to participate. It can scarcely be doubted that their votes would be against the. bonds. Women, more than men, are devoted to the home, and women have been quick to see that the mayors plan for a debt of many millions Is nothing more nor less than great, public mortgage upon all the homes of Bridgeport

BISHOP BRENT OF PHILIPPINES.

While Canada has assimiliated many of Uncle, Sams citizens during the last few years, to Unele's vast indignation, the people on the south
 side of the international boundary may comfort themselves with the re- f1ection that they are still ahead of the human reciprocity game. For every Sir Thomas Shaughnessy slured to Canada, the United States has re- ceiVed in exchange Jim Hill, a Mar garet Anglin; a Walt Mason, an Eva Tanguay and a Bishop Brent-which with all regard for Sir Thomas's great ability, leaves Uncle Sam distinctly ahead in his contest with the Lady of the Shows. Speaking of Bishop Charles Henry Brent, who for nearly thirteen years has been missionary bishop to the little brown brothers of the Phil ippines, he was born in Newcastle
 Ont, fifty-two years ago today, the son of Rev. Canon Henry Brent, an eminent Canadian churchman. He received the degree of A. B.. with
 classical honors. from Trinity Col lege, Toronto, in 1884, and that in stitution later conferred upon him the degrees of A. M. and D. D. He became deacon in 1886. and a priest the following year. in the Pro

testant Episcopal church. His first work was as assistant minister of St. PauPs Cathedral in Buffalo. From there he went to Boston, where he served the congregations of St. John the Evangelist and St Stephens. In 1901 the general convention of the church elected him Bishop Of the Philippines, and he was consecrat- ed in December of that year. Prior to that time Bishop Brent had gain ed an international reputation as a writer, having been member of the editorial staff of The Churchman, as well as writing a book entitled With God in the World Since then he has published several volumes. in- cluding ."The Cancellations of the Cross" ..The Splendor of the Human Hody," leadership and Adventure for God.'
 Bishop Brent has taken a promi- nent part in the movement for stamp ing out the opium traffic in the Phil ippines, and was a member of the Philippine Opium Commission. He has twice been elected Bishop o1 Washington, D. C., but has refused that important post because he be- lieved that duty called him to remain in the Philippines. On his last visit to America, by way of Europe, Bish- op Brent crossed the Atlantic in the steerage of a Cunard liner, -declarins that was the place to meet real peo- pie, and not in the saloon or second cabin. On that trip Bishop Brent traveled to Europe over the Trans Siberian railway.

THE ROCKEFELLER KINGDOM
Y DUNG MIR. ROCKEFELLER made

NI d
 1 appearance before the Congressional committee, that is investigating the labor dis turbanees,. occasioned by differences between the employees of the Colorado Iron and Fuel Company and it's owners. Some 40 per cent of the stock is held by the Rockefellers.
 When all that he said was summed up it amounted to this, that the owner of monopoly is concerned with his own profits and in very minor degree with the well being of those who work for him, and in an even smaller measure with the general public.
 By coincidence MT. Rockefeller was be- fore the committee the of the birthday anniversary of the great monopoly from which his family has taken the greatest private for tune of the ages.
 So far as can be known, the first trust agreement by which Standard Oil entered upon it's career an octopus was signed thlrty-flve years ago today April 8, 1879. Until few years ago this document remained a secret, and 1882 was supposed to have been the birth year of the trust. This first agreement shows that from the beginning John D. Rockefeller held the largest share of the trusts stock-S,- 984 out of 35,OO0 shares The late Henry M Flagler, to whose organizing ability MT. Rocke feller has attributed much of the company's
 success, held 5000 shares being the second heaviest of the original holders Other stock holders were Charles Pratt 2,7OO s. V. Hark- |ness, 2, ,295; O. H. Payne, 2637; William Rocke- Heller, i600; Charles Lockhart, ,4O8; William G. Warden, ,292, and J. A. Bostwick ,872 Twenty other stockholders held blocks of shares ranging from fifteen to 99O the lat ter number belonging to W. c. Andrews, John D. Rockefe1ler's first partner in the oil indus try. Of those who afterward became promi- nent in the direction of the gigantic trust, Henry H. Rogers held 810 shares and John D. Archbold $50 shares under the original trust agreement At that time the Standard Oil Company .sheld the possession of certificates for certain stocks in twenty-eight different companies, and fifteen of them it controlled outright. The first trust agreement was signed by John D. Rockefeller as president and H. M. Flagler as secretary, and set forth in. detail
 the and holdings of stockholders and the number of shares owned by the trust in the various oil, refining and allied companies which it was then engaged in absorbing by a process of more or less benevolent assimila- tion.
 i When the elder Rockefeller dies, as he
 soon must, he will leave his shares of this kingdom to the princes of his house, who be-
 come hereditary billionaires, and acquire with
 out effort or labor upon their part powers greater than modern Kings command. One
 suspects that hereditary billonaires may be
 less common in future than they have been in l past

NOME.


 The first appearance of the name of Nome in the pages of history was in a chart published by the British admiralty in 1s49, in which Cape Nome appeared on map, but the famous Alaskan city of that name did not spring up until the discovery of gold in that region in June, 1898. Nome will celebrate its thirteenth birthday today, for it was incorpor- ated as a town on April g, 1901. Its population at that time was about 1000. but in 1910 it had shrunk to 2.e00. Fhe history of Nome has been that of scores of other towns that were the centers of excitem ent over the discovery of precious metals. It went up like a rocket and came down like a stick. The depopulation of Nome has been carried to g. point where the inhabitants now represent the slrvival of the fittest--or the most fortunate The high cost of liv- ing at Nome during the days of the gold rush made it necessary for most of the early settlers to make an inn mediate strike or get out, and in 1900 Congress had to vote relief to the miners of the district.

WHY VOTES WAVE OR INCREASE

ATER REPORTS from the election in H. 1-< lnois show that women voted some what more numerously in proportion to the numbers registered than men did. The reason had just been admitted to the ballot. and were momentarily enthusiastic.
 It was off election, and the vote was smaller than when full state ticket is chosen. ssv The ballot fluctuates, not as between men and women, but according to the amount of in tefest in the things voted upon.
 In Chicago 73 per cent of all registered women voted. Tn New York State. upon the question of holding a constitutional conven- tion, scarcely more than sixth Of the reg istered males voted.
 There was much interest in the Chicago election, and not very much interest in the proposition to hold constitutional conven- ton.

PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY IN RRIDGEPORT AND HARTFORD

ID RIDGEPORT AND HARTFORD establish- D ed public water supply about the same time- The Bridgeport works date from 1858. and the Hartford works from 1856 But Bridgeport confided the privilege of water SUD- ply to private persons while Hartford, with abiding confidence in it's citizens estab- ,lished public water supply.
 Since this time Bridgeport has been in a constant quarrel with the private monopoly it created, and Bridgeport citizens have paid an exceedingly high price for water while Hart ford has at all times been proud of it's plant, and Hartford citizens have had their water at lower cost while the city has built up great water works and enjoyed large surplus of profits

AN ELECTRICAL WIZARD.

Charles Proteus Steinmetz, 'tthe
 wizard of Schenectady and, with the
 possible exception of Thomas A. Ed
 ison, the most fertile of electrical in-
 ventors, was born in Breslau, Ger
 fled to America from his native land
 to escape prosecution because of his socialist affiliations. Although he
 now receives a salary of $75,000 a year, perhaps the greatest ever paid
 an electrical engineer. and has re-
 ceived high honors from some of the
 worlds leading universities and sci- entific associations, Steinmetz has
 remained firm in his socialistic con- victions. In the Metropolitan Maga+ zine for March there is an interview by Arthur H. Gleason explaining the political and economic views of this Lilliputian-for he is less than four feet in height-with the giants brain.
 Socialism. Steinmetz thinks, is the necessary and inevitable development of capitalism. ITO try to stop un- avoidable changes" he declares, ''is like trying to stop the flywheel of an engine. You will be crushed" There might be no socialist party he thinks, .and socialism would l come just as inevitably The party
 he thinks. helps to hasten the natur-
 al evolution. and that is why he is a socialist. 'I don't enjoy a thing un-
 less others have a chance to enjoy it,
 he added, as sentimental reason for l his devotion to the Marxian cause.
