ADVERTISING ON COINS.

It is pretty state of affairs in the treasury department at Washington when the announcement is made that the coinage of the new ten cent pieces may be stopped because it is found that they contain the monogram of the designer. This 1t will be remembered is the same sort of situation which arose during the coining of the lin coin penny, at which time new dies had to be made to overcome the ini- tials which the artist had placed thereon, and in view of that very circumstance it is peculiar that an exactly similar situation should now be raised in the coining of new silver pieces.
 Having gone through that experi- ence so recently it is difficult to un- derstand how the treasury officials should have passed. upon the design for the new dimes and apparently sanctioned the appearance thereon of the artists monogram and permitted S1S0,OOO worth to be coined before there was any thought given to its removal There must have been little consideration given to this matter at the time of inspection. GiJ sr=i~aE.
 There is of course no law against the appearance of initials or a mono gram on such coins. but if the pre- cedent which was established in the previous instance was to receive any attention at all. in order to exclude advertising from the coins of this country, it should have been done at the proper time and before the design was approved instead of after hum dreds of thousands of them had been minted

Q STANDS FOR ALL AMERICAN
 RIGHTS,

Among the democratic newspapers there are those which have expressed satisfaction that Governor Hughes has declared himself in favor of the maintenance of the right of travel and the right of shipment. The Spring field Republican even says 1t is to his credit that he has declared himself upon this point, but as a matter of fact there was nothing in the reply which he made to the heclzler at Co., lumbus, Ohio. which had not already been covered in his previous state ments.
 MT. Hughes declared: q am in fla vor of the maintenance of every right. including the right of travel and the right of shipments. It is a very inn portant right that we have as a neu- tral nation and it is very important that at this time when the great war is raging that we should vindicate neutral rights and maintain the in- tegrity of international law. To my mind it is a very thoughtless policy that would surrender any of these inn portant rights because of any senti- mental consideration, when we have the vast necessities of neutral com- merce and the importance of the rights of neutrals to consider with respect to the future of the United States"
 Way back in his speech of accept ance MT. Hughes said T stand for the unfiinching maintenance of all Ameri- can rights on land and sea" That without going into the enumeration of everyone of them showed his position and it was only the disposition to find some subtle meaning therein, or to judge him by another. that left the least iota of a doubt as to where he stood.

THE CANDIDATES AND CIVIL
 SERVICE --.v .rr.- -

Just previous to his election Presi- dent Wilson declared that his hobby was that of publicity. He declared that the root of all evil in politics is privacy and concealment, and follow ing his election he immediately de- clared for the policy of '"pitilcss pub licity."
 Notwithstanding that he has pro ceeded to go contrary to his own dec- larations as is shown in the work ings of the third house" with which he surrounded himself and in his at titude in supporting the civil service commission in its refusal to permit an inspection of it's work because such publicity might prove an embarrass ment to the administration.
 With such reversal of his announced policy in mind. and recognition taken of the fact that he has shown a hos tile attitude towards civil service dur ing his term. the National Civil Ser vice Reform League, during the lat ter part of September sought his views, as we'll as those of Charles E. Hughes upon the question of extending civil service to the third. second and first class postmasters. That was five weeks ago.
 MT. Hughes upon his return from his western tour has replied to the question and he, says q beg to say that I favor such legislation" There has been no response from MT.

KEEPING US OUT OF WAR.

In his debate with Senator Mclean at Waterbury Tuesday night Homer Cummings made reference to the fact that the president had kept this na- tion out of the vortex of war. It is the claim upon which so much em- phasis is being laid by the democrats throughout the campaign in order to appeal to those who wouldr be in fluenced by such a statement without a full consideration of the facts.
 Peace Is desired no more by the president than by the entire nation. Candidate Hughes and all those who have spoken for him have made it as plain as words can that he stands as determinedly for peace as anyone ever has or could, but be does not stand for peace without honor. or peace with humiliation by refusing to uphold American rights. and 1t is difficult to understand how any one with good red blood in his veins could do so. The facts of the case are, however, that never before in the experience of the in dividual, nor in that of the nation has such weakness, hesitation and vacilla- ton been shown and whatever danger there has been of war. and even that war in which we are at present en- saseu with Mexlco, mas been que to the policies which have been carried out by the present administration. To claim credit for that is like asking for applause for running away from duty.
 Senator Mclean hit the nail on the head in this respect when he declared that the president kept us out of war about as much as he prevented us from falling into the big dipper or getting drowned in the Milky way.

THE WAR PRIMER

Oberndorf-In connection with the recent air raid on the German town of Oberndorf, in which the American aviator, Norman Prince, serving in the French flying corps. lost his life, the National Geographic Society is sues the following war geography bulletin:

 author of 'Auf der Hohe' (On the Heights) and the 'Schwarzwalder DorfgeSchichten.
 Tn the opposite direction, to the south, is Rottweil, II miles distant, an ancient town with 10000 inhabi- tants which was a free imperial city as far back as the 18th century. The townspeople are largely engaged in the manufacture. of powder, locono- tives, and machinery, besides conduct ing and active trade in wines and livestock. A town hall and two churches of the medieval period con- tain some interesting examples of old German art and sculpture, while a striking bit of Roman mosaic recalls the fact that an ancient Roman col- ony once existed three quarters of a | mile south of the town at Boutwell, | Altstadt.

As one walks through the principal streets. of this city and looks over some of the dingy, squatty, ill kept buildings that adorn the thorough fares he wonders if there is ever to be any relief from the present condi- tions unless there is a big fire. Mer- iden has too many of these old struc- lures and because under present ar engagements they are a paying in- vestment there seems small chance of any of them being replaced by mod ern buildings. If there was ever an excuse for the single tax system 1t lies in just such conditions. If the tax were placed on the land along East and West Main street and Colony street property owners would be mighty quick to tear down their old blocks because they wculd not be able to get enough reNnue from them in their present state to make them worth while. If d tax was laid on the front foot along these streets people could not afford to have little one and two-story buildings and the city would be the gainer. The land

OTHER VIEW POINTS

Shoes have gone up from twenty five cents to one dollar a pair; coal is on the up grade and the grocers tell us that between now and the first of January we shall probably experience a rise in the prices of the ordinary table necessities, to say nothing of Iuxuries, of at least twenty five per cent! And yet there is positively no natural or legitimate shortage in any staple article of food or general use. It is a time of absolute plenty and the shortage, if any, is artificial and for the enrichment of the few at the ex- pense of the many. Have we no power of government to seek out the sources of this artifcially produced expansion of prices and to properly punish the authors Of it? Have we no power of government to prevent the exporta- ton of what our people eat, drink and wear until the cost of what is left at home is doubled to the home consul mer? Must we sit quietly under this imposition of unnecessary high prices and submit to the infiiction without a murmur? In some countries men have been hanged and burned for less crimes than this!--Bridgepor Stand ard.
