MAKING LAWS,

In his address in Washington before the American Bar association Senator Elihu Root called attention to the ten- dency which has existed throughout the country for the enactment of new legislation. He referred to the record in the congressional library where it was shown in the period of five years from 1909 to 1913 inclusive that there were passed a, total of 62,014 statutes in the different states of the union.
 Such is a rapid filling up of the statute books and there is no ques- ton but what such was a. result of the tendencies of the times. Legisla- lures too often expect their work to be judged by the volume of business which they have acted upon rather than by the value of the laws passed A great quantity of weak legislation, the passage of fll-advised and non- understandable laws may serve to roll up a large grand total of bills acted upon favorabIy, but such does not nec- essarf1y mean that the interests and welfare of the commonwealth are con- scientious1y served
 Each and every session of a state legislature whether it meets every year OF once in two years. has much work before it and such consists of the pas- sage not of greats number of laws, but of laws which are carefully draft ed, laws which are needed to remedy existing conditions and laws which are sensible with the necessary provisions for their enforcement. The law n1aIz- CTS can we'll adopt the policy of safe- ty and sanity in lawInaking

THE SOUND LINES.

= The prospect that there will be an searly hearing upon the desire of the kNew Haven road for the retention of the Sound lines of steamboats is a natter of vital interest to this section df the country, for New England as well as the rad is dessrors that there shall be no separation of these trans sportation lines, The determination of this question lies with the interstate commerce commission, which has the power to permit the operation of the lines by the railroad if in their opinion it is justified,
 The Sound lines of steamers are a valuable accommodation to business in the manufacturing centers of the New England states and such accommoda- ton can be rendered with the great est degree of efficiency when operated as @ part of the railroad system. It IS by these water lines that better service is possible since they prevent the cloggfng of the all rail lines. and affords a direct and quick method for ,the handling of the business of a large number of important manufacturing concerns
 Operated as one unit and without competition between the rail and water rnsrtes facility is given to freight traf- ffc which would be impossible if the ,steamboats and the railroad were own ed by different companies and oper- ated separately. Though the situation will be clearly presented before the
 commission by the railroad system no
 small weight should be given by the
 very fact that the voice of New Eng land is loud in it's behalf.

THE CANAL MANAGEMENT,

;, With fine news that the slide in tie Panama canal has been sufficiently overcome to permit the resumption of Navigation through that inter-oceanic H aterway, another demonstration is given of the efficiency of the force of engineers which Uncle Sam has in charge of that important work. Not only have they become thoroughly familiar with such a task through their previous experience, but they have the combination of knowledge and equip nlent for the quick moving of such an obstruction.
 The terrors of the landslides are fast diminishing and it Is the cause fo, Gongratulation because the closing ot the canal, even at this early date
 means the interference with a size- able amount of revenue. Though only receiving business for a matter ot two months there have been one hun dred vessels taken through the canal Mp, to October seventh, with a tonnage

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Thani<s for Flowers to Friends Whe
 Sent Them to State Hospital

Mir. Editcr:-A great many flowers have been received at the hospital tniS summer in response to the Appeat TOT Flowers printed in this paper on Jury 25th. when the name of the giyer was known a letter Of acknowledge rneut was sent; but where no name aecoinpanied the flowers, this could not be done So to express our thanks and pleasure to those with whom we could not communicate directly, ana also that we may tell to all interested what good the flowers have done, we must ask again the courtesy or the Bulletin in giving us space in its col urlns.
 Two wards of the hospital where many new patients are received and where there are many who are sick, have been abundantly supplied with flowers for many weeks, and even now the vases are not empty. Two long tables on one ward and one long taple on the other lost their hareness when holding vases Of flowers and there were. flowers for center table on each ward and sometimes for smaller table at the end Of one ward, lighting the long rooms with beauty.
 Flowers were placed in sick. rooms and occasionally flowers were given to appreciatiye patients who had rooms or who could keep them Tn the Will doyVs near their beds.
 About 14 punches of flowers were sent to other wards during the sum- ner.
 Many of the bouquets with care and the removal of faded flowers and the cool air of the porch at/ntght lasted nearly week.
 Learning that they would be mucil enjoyed, nurses and other employees of the hospital brought many flowers. and the patients of the open ward gathered from their flower beds and sent to tho wards where there are many who are unable to go outdoors. generous punches of rnarigolds, nasturtiuns and other flowers
 Several times nurses or +patIents were heard to say that they never saw such lovely flowers. Once, when some flow CTS were being carried on their way te the table past lady whose illness had taken from her the power of easy speech, her one word beauty and the brightness of her dark eyes was more eloquent than many sentences. We must tell of the sweet peas oi every hue, the hardy ph1ox, lavender and white, the golden glow, the bril- liant dahIiaS, the sornbre but lovely mourning brides, the gay zinnias, the annual pfliox in varied coloring, the fragrant sprigs of rose geranfun, mint and lemon verbena, the cheery nastur- tfuIIls, the double and single petunias, the rose-pink patience with it's long horned buds which opened so nicely in water. the little slips of green and red cofeus, some of which are now

ELIMINATING ILLIrERAcY.

The governor Of the state of Ken lucky has appointed a commission for the elimination of illiteracy fin that state. Such is to be considered an entirely separate undertaking from the general educational movement, but it is a step in the right direction and which every state can with profit adopt.
 Kentucky has 8 large number of illiterates, the adults who are unable to read or write numbering POS, 900 and it must be realized that what ever can be done to materially reduce that number is going to result to the betterment of the citizenship of the state as we'll as the individual well fare. Most states have found the com putsory educational law a most vaIu- able factor in overcoming such con- ditfons in each succeeding generation, but in Kentucky the need of reach ing the adults is recognized.
 In Connecticut the number of H. Eierates is far less than in Kentucky, the total number being 53,665, but even that number is too large for a. state where educational facilities are what they are, in this commonwealth. This effort in Kentucky where hundreds of teachers have volunteered to aid in the overcoming of the curse and shame of nliteracy cannot fail to be glowing example to states which reveal as bad if not worse conditions. The need of eliminating illiteracy is generally real ized, but such a step as Kentucky has taken gives evidence of an earnest and determined. attack upon the shortcom- ings of the educational system of the past, and it deserves to succeed

OTHER VIEW POINTS


Those who have tramped the woeds with their eyes open. do not need to bs told that the past summer has seen no improvement in the condition of the chestnut trees. Rather the extent of even the older and stronger trees. which at first resisted it, are affected. The chestnut tree which has so fort unately escaped that neither it's growth nor its crop has been stunted, is a very rare specimen. This fall it develops that even the nuts which have come to
 maturity are themselves affected by the Blight, which has covered them with sort of rust, materially injurins their looks if not their quality-New Haven Register.

 am told that a young woman in New London is making nice income by selling what she calls New orleans crullers. This is because sne . seis :. not only the doughnut- but the "hole That portion of the dough cut out by the cook and generally gathered up in to another cruller she fries With the rounds, in & wire basket; and after rounds and balls have, been sprlnhled with powdered sugar, the "holes' are put back into place. The tempting looking crullers sell at sight; and nine out of ten mortals start to eat the holes first!
 The deuahnut has been one of the standard joI<es about New England. as venerable as the witticisrns about the mother -in-law, the lodge, putting up sfove-pipe, and the perfume or the onion.
 A local woman on her return from a vacation visit on the Massachusetts eoass. asked about her trip replied, "Oh, we had a perfectly lovely tins! We had doushnuts for breakfast!
 The psychology of douehnut- eating is interesting. The habit is by no means confined to New England Irving de- ancient New York for their "oley- cokes"--oiiy cakes, sweet dough fried in lard or drippilgs.
 Tn one of Howell's stories there is an interesting incident which has to do with life in Maine lumber camp, where the Canadian cook, after their breakfast of fried pork and potatoes, thick slices of butteriess bread and coffee sweetened with rnolasses, gave the lumberjacks g. sort Of cruller; twisted strips of dough which he had fried in lard and sprinkled with spice

 On the same principle, New Eng ianders Of colonial days and their de- scendants of later times reiisl1ed the doughnut, raised or otherwise. Any horseman knows when his steed begins to gnaw his crib that he craves a change of food-sone element nec- essary to his comfort is lacking. So in the much -derided doughnut- eating of our ancestors there was a. reason!
 Fancy those good folks rising before dawn, on frosty morning before the era of steam or furnace heat, or even of a substantial cook stove. In later dave, there would be a solid break fast of oatmeal porridge, maybe, or johnny cakes, ham and eggs, hash bacon, dried beef, pork fried with sliced apples, some simple stew, per haps. of the meat cured on the farm There would be brown bread coffee, or camtric tea as a hot drink.

most peoples opinions are better than their arguments. The opinions of others we fear unnnindful of the fact most of them are feeble spectres. We are all likely to have opinions today we do not care to mention to morrow. The people who say "nay opinon'' with
