ages and makes are en route from Seattle and Portland to Los Angeles,
 fo use in the jitney transportation service, should cause the city coun- cil to thrill with pride. It is the benev- olent attitude that executive body has assumed toward the jitney nui- sance that acclaims to the world the possibilities of this market for the easy unloading of joted and jared automobiles, no longer regarded with complacency by their erstwhilc own CTS. With red, white and blue trim mingS and a score or more of men and women sardined into a six-seated machine, including running board oc- cupants, what an inspiring sight these Jaded eyes of effete customers this summer, when the jitney processions are at perihelion, between and 6 o'clock in the late afternoon.
 Great stress is laid in this curious tumble of inconsequential stipulations on non-skidding tires, the size of the lettering of signs, ability to read the traffic rules and similar proposed reg ulations, but not word about in- demnity bonds, that shall make these common carriers responsible to the public In the event of accidents, and as for the congested streets the coun- cil ignores them, by allowing the jit- ney applicant to choose his own

route. What storm of protest will
 break over the heads of these ordi-
 nance constructors, following a dis astrous accident, when several bread
 winners are injured for life or killed and the irresponsible bus driver
 whose carelessness, perhaps, has in- vited the smashup, is unable to fur nish redress to the bereft families!
 If the weak ordinance now framed is adopted as a regulative measure for the autobusses, leaving out the
 indemnity clause and allowing the Jitneys to pervade the business dis trict at will there is bound to en- sue much trouble for the Whiffeu- poofers of the council responsible for so fragrant a neglect of public duty. This is wholly aside from the injus- tice wrought to the electric car lines, whose obligations to the city are many and costly. Why the city council should SO unfairly discrimi- nate the two classes of common car riers, is not clear; the city treasury is 8 participant in the earnings of the street car companies and for every dollar lost to the ttneys, the must share in the mulct- ing, since the franchise grants calf for a percentage of earnings on each car operated. Curtailment of cars and reduction of receipts mean a cor responding loss of income to the city.

HEARING ON SUNDAY BILLS.

At the hearings on the Sunday bills before the legislature yesterday those who favored them were not as numer- ous as those who appeared in opposi- ton but then that has always been the way. There was, however, a noted absence Of the old charge that there were people back of the measures for the sole purpose of financial gain, principally those who conduct thea ters, but there was much reference to demoralizing the Sabbath. People now are acting about the same in ref erence to baseball for instance as they have been doing for more than a quarter of a century'an all in strict violation Of the law The custom has fields and play ball on Sunday, once in while they have been chased by the police, sometimes caught, the ball and bat confscated and the players removed to the station house. Base ball can be played in parks now with the consent of the park commission CTS and it is absurd to say that they should not be permitted to play on grounds prepared for that purpose or that society or religion would be in jured if they did so. There are many good people who are strongly op- posed to such things being legalized on Sunday but they are silent about the crowds who gather in some out of the way place and play in violation of the law, while others see in this movement q lack of respect of the statutes and believe that rather than have that feeling continue that the sport should be legalized because in no event does it do any harm.
 In regard to moving pictures the fact that so many attend the eXhib1- tions is positive proof that the peo- pie want them and those who have visited those shows see no harm in them. If the proprietor of a theater makes a few dollars on such exhibi- tions it is nothing to the pleasure that spectators, many of whom work in the factories during the week and have only Sunday for recreation. These facts should not be overlooked.

rule for closing debate with a view to hastening the decision of any ques- tion, but if it ever gets in earnest it can adopt rules that will limit de- bates on all questions. This would take a long time but when done would be done once for all.
 But as a matter of fact senators ap- prove the principle of unlimited dis cussion and only object to it when some question in which they are in- terested is suffering from too much talk. Senators do not wish to adopt rules for limiting all debates but some particular senator wants a rule for limiting some particular debate. This cannot be passed. It will have to be all or none.
 And it should be all or none. The practice should be uniform. If law is not uniform if is not respectable. We do not believe the senate win bandon it's practice of debating all questions until every member has said all that he wishes to say. We certainly hope it will not, for when the senate adopts the rules by which legislation is rushed through the house we will have a government by steam roller. - a..-...

Closure in tho Senate.
(Jacksonvile, Fla, Times-Union

(Jacksonvile, Fla, Times-Union)
 At nearly every session of the sen tae some man with more zeal than discretion tries to have a closure rule adopted to facilitate the passage of some measure that senators are talk ing to death. It looks as if any one of senatorial size would know better than to make such a proposition even if he had no experience or history for his guidance. He ought to know that when the senate has no rule by which debate can be shut off any pro- position intended to have that effect simply furnishes a new subject for debate. If bill is kept before the senate constantly and consistently at some time or other senators will get tired of debating it and let it go to a vote. Under such circumstances those who are trying to talk a bill to death are delighted when a closure rule is proposed and they are given another subject for discussion that will be equally effective in delaying the bill they are opposing.
 Anyone should know this without having to learn it from experiences hut if has been tried so often and all ways with the result of proloneinp the delay that those who do not ston to think need only judge the future by the past.
 The senate need not try to pass any

FinanciorinU.
(New London Telegraph. )


 Evidently the real crux of things in the Connecticut assembly is to be revealed in the work of the finance committee. There have been more strenuous laws about taxation pro- posed this year than ever. and there appears to be a good deal of push behind many of them. Taking these propositions up in detail is for latter effort. But just now two things may we'll be thought of. Going at the taxation problem piecemeal is not the best way. Taxing public service cor porations and insurance companies can be overdone. s. ..~
 Connecticut needs better laws of tax ation better methods of assessment more equal tax burdens. These could best be had. if the subject should be studied as a whole, and not be taken up by items from year to year, without much regard for gen. eral principles. The public service corporations that are rich enough collect their tax payments from the people. Those that are poorer can- not afford to pay the taxes. There are good many public service cor porations which cannot earn a penny of profit to the operators and yet are of great value to the public Such corporations ought not to be taxed at all.
 AS yet, in all the tax talk, we have not heard the suggestion that idle property held for speculation should be taxed on it's speculative value. When man won't sell idle land for $1,OO0 an acre, and yet pays taxes on only $10 an acre, the community is being robbed. But this is only one tax injustice out of probably sev- eral hundreds that might be brought out by scientific tax study. such as Connecticut should make but prob ably won't. It seems so much easier to Whack the oystermen, or the rail- roads, or gas and electric companies, or insurance companies, etc. And speaking of insurance companies. haven't they brought enough capi- tai into Connecticut to be thought of rather liberal1y in the matter of tax ation? Isn't it a rather ridcr1ous proposition that the more industrious and useful a man is the bigger taxos you should make him pay while Tho lazier and less enterprising he is the m ore taxes you should lift from bis back? Let the finance committea TO fleet on this.

Plumage for Men.
(Boston Herald.)

Now the masculine hat sports it's tiny splash of color. Gone the plumed beavers which for three centuries dominated the world of fashion. Ia boo the sweeping sombrero for street wear in the teeming cities of the east. But the students of sartorial art note with a smile, and sometimes with trepidation, that the male, while loudly protesting ais inference to the wiles of dress which are affected by the female of the species,' is avail ing himself more and more of the lit tie tufts of blue or red and the dainty scarlet feather Haunted upon the star board side of certain headgear of the prevailing mode
 Despoiled of the gorgeous raiment which his ancestors wore, his legs inn mersed in neither garments for which they were never molded, denied any degree of polychromatic splendor, poor man welcomes with becoming gratitude such small crumbs of com fort as his plunged hat affords. Of all the foreigners who ever visited the United States, excepting perhaps only Lafayette, Louis Kossuth, the Hungarian patriot, received the most effusive welcome.
 Forthwith the Kossuth hat, of soft felt with a defiant and aggressive plume, leaped into popularity threat ening to displace for good the high silk hat which was working it's way into favor. But then the hat which was sponsored in 1849 by .Kossuth was supposed to typify the vigorous char acter of the sturdy old champion of liberty. Do the men of today lack the love of liberty or do they fear to act upon their rights? Downtrodden for decades, it may be that at last they intend to garnish and enhance their beauty, and that these sidewheel festoons are the narbinger of the good time coming.

 There has been much evidence dur Ing the past few years to the effect that the management of small town affairs has not always been successful. The system under which they 10 busi- ness is not of the best, there being no means of determining how things are gong until the end of the year and then if things are found to be unsatisfactory it is too late to do anything. That, however, is the general method under the town sys- tenn. unless there is some special leg islation to prevent it. Groton is in troducing bills to bring about that re- suit. The water departments of the state are the branches that are likely to have much to do during the next few years because wherever there IS an opportunity to develop water supply it will in all probability be done. Some of the small towns may not feel inclined to go into the work them- selves for their own immediate bene- fit, but they wilk want all they can get from the cities seeking water rights and that will make them @ more important department than they have ever been, although there does not appear to be any necessity TOT tying them up as preliminary. Grot- on may have some special reason for it's present action but it's plans to have town meeting restrict the water department of the borough to certain expenditures nav vet prove to have been signif- l cant.
