That night out in the hallway
The gas was Pickering low:
The Boarder slowly passing
Was swearing soft and slow.
The widow from the kitchen
Felt pity in her heart
For this young handsome stranger,
So truthful, naive and smart.
She stepped out slight blushing
And winked her other eye
Since then he's lived on Turkey
And Cake and PUnkin Pie.

PUT AN END TO BLEAsE.

There are instances now and then when certain politicians who think they cannot be beaten. or ought not to be, are unwilling to accept the verdict of their party when such a demon stration really occurs and set out to run as independents or to organize a new party. It is this latter move which has been resorted to by Cole BIease of South Carolina, one time governor of that commonwealth whose conduct of the office gave the state an unenviable reputation.
 Blease had ambitions for the United States senate but he was beaten. He then desired to return to the govern orship but the nomination was denied him by the democratic party of the Palmetto state, and now because of that throw down a convention has been called to start a party of his own.
 This should be welcomed by the peo- pie of South Carolina. That is a dem ocratic state and the nomination by that party means election. The demo- crats have denied that to BIease once and they possess the strength to do it again and they will doubtless welcome the political contest which will give them the chance to so completely snow him under that his political ambitions will be disposed of forever. His very entry into the campaign should be sufficient reason for the democratic party not only to wage an unusually strong campaign but for the sake of good government it should attract to it the support of the voters of the state regardless of party aff1liation. and those who know what Bleaseism is will take joy in lending a hand to prevent any more of it.

THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEES.

By their recent caucus the republi- cans of Norwich placed in nomination the same two men who were elected two years ago to represent the town in the general assembly. They were chosen without contest and it is well known to their constituents what their record was in the last session of the state legislature. They are alive to the welfare and interest of Norwich They stand not for any one class but for all. They have gained the exper- fence which is bound to make them more valuable in the same positions when the session of 1917 opens, and there is no question but what the confidence that they merit will be re- fected in the vote on November sev- enth.
 The action is in keeping with that which was taken by the delegates of the nineteenth senatorial district, who honored the wearer of the senatorial toga from Norwich. Preston and Led yard with renomination in recognition of his services in the upper house and under the belief that one good term deserves another
 The success of NIessrs. Barnes, Bai- ley and Henderson at the polls means that the people of this vicinity can rely upon the fact that their interests will be properly cared for and that they will contribute their part to the upholding of the same kind of a state administration as has been maintained during the past two years by Gov ernor Holcomb. The town, the dis trict and the state need just such ser vice at Hartford.

an Athens dispatch. even looks upon Rumania as doomed already. Such an attitude is of course in keeping with the spirit which he has manifested right along. He is ready to make cap itaI of each and every instance where Rumania meets with reverses, and sto point out that as soon as Rumania falls, which he predicts will be within two weeks, those same Teutonic forces could and would be directed to the crushing of Greece in similar man ner.
 This is of course all based upon the showing which Rumania has been making and the fact that the allies have been dilatory in going to its as- sistance. It is also the result of the delayed action in entering the war one state at a, time. Constantine has ap- parently been waiting to see what Rumania was going to do. He thinks that he sees the solution already even before it has been demonstrated what the allies are doing or going to do to offset the Teutonic successes. Con- stantine knows the fate of Serbia but he apparently doesn't stop to think how much his failure to uphold the treaty between the two nations has contributed thereto, or how much the entrance of Greece into the war some time ago would have prevented the present situation in Rumania.

POLITICAL
On Our Own Shores.

He has kept us out of war;" plead ed MT. Wilson's defenders, but he has not kept war out of the United States. Mexican bandits have long exercised the new freedom" up and down and across the border, and Sunday saw Prussian submarine resorting to sim liar license near our coasts. Off Nan tucket the Prussian Submarine G-53 sank six vessels, one a liner with many Americans among it's passengers, and held up the American steamer Kan san pending the establishment of it's identity. The submarine took a posi- tion directly in the steamer lanes where it could command aiI the ship ping bound for New York or bound east from that port. No network of niceties Of international law can ob- scure these three dangerous and dis graceful facts:
 1. Taking it's cue from the Mexican bandits an old-world power today is conducting it's warfare at our own door in complete contempt of any inclina- ton or capacity of the United States to make more than paper protest against the inpudent procedure of it's resultant violation of the rights of this nation.
 2. An American ship has been held up close to our shores, an act that blockade, and the blockading of a neutral port by a belligerent no one denies would be an act of war.
 3. The attack of the Prussian sub marine is in distinct defiance of num- erous not<s sent by MT. Wilson.-Bos- ton Evening Transcript.
 The impertinence of Prussianism in sending one of its engines of fright fitness" into a port of the United States for the purpose of obtaining military information and going inme- diately from that port to it's mission of warfare in American waters-the contempt for the United States that this act reveaIs-what else are these but the Iegiticate fruits of the policy of blowing hot" at the wrong time and blowing cold" when events demanded action that has marked the handling of our relations with Berlin from the day that Count von Bernstorff revealed his guilty foreknowledge of the dreadful crime which was to be perpetrated against American citizens and against Ameri- ca in the ruthless sinking of the Lu- sitania?
 Contempt" is almost too weak a word to describe the feeling of Prus- sianism and it's kaiser toward the gov ernment of the United States and it's people.
 This feeling-a humiliating rehec- tion upon Americanism-had its roots in administration trif1ing over Mexico. It was strengthened when, after MT. Wilson's "strtct accountability" note of Feb 10, 1915, the ,-Lusitania was

Imitators.

MT. Editor: In England the swelled head Is a natural growth, among the Anglo-SaxOn. Here in America, we have imitators, who import, and ape which makes 1t a manufactured arti- cle.
 Hyphens, who refuse the hire or bribe of the vampire nation, she. who seeks the monopoly of trade and wealth she who has made the seas her private domain, she. who has cru c1f1ed Ireland for seven hundred years, and has multiplied famineS in India, and blown Indian insurgents from the cannon's mouth. she. who hired sav- ages to murder and scalp American women and children, burned our towns and cities. who sent out pirates, dis guised as confederate men of war. to sweep our conmerce from the seas, she, who forced a cowardly admins tration to surrender American rights in the Panama canal. are told they are without virture, and have no rights and that the interests of civilization demand their extinction. To escape this terrible calamity, we must see that the laws of nature have placed all the resources of the earth on a platter, and converted it into a roast beef for John Bull. If we approve, we are civilized; to resist. is to be a trail tor or a hyphen.
 We oftentimes read in history of some great man, whose glory casts a shadow on some personal defect, it may be a wart. squint. or game leg. Then we hear of imitators who get into the Iimelight by providing themselves with artificial Warts, a squint, or a game leg. The Anglo Sax on swelled head in America is an ar tic1e of this kind. This manufactured ivory differs from all other limitations in the perfections of it's likeness to the original. It is very sensitive. al- most the same as any original bone and, it sometimes gives forth sounds resembling London accent. The owner of this ivory bone affects the London style and taste in all things. and of course, this increases the swelling of this artifcal noddle. As a working supposition we may assume that my Lord Astor. is the ultimate apothesis of the artificial swelled head of Anglo Saxonism. His glory Is pure and un- defiled, untainted by any taint of American national pride, or pa tbe nrze ssbb an itation m at 45a he n,nd is and lord of all funkies. His record may perhaps be found in the book of snobs.
 Now the American copy resembles the original in the bold front, and gall of its utterances.
 The monkey. the fiunkey, and the jackass having nothing on the Ameri can imitator. His ears and his tail may be somewaht obvious, though un- usual decorations. But he is tame and charming, you see, the zeal Of swell head the first. extends even to the writings of his humble imitators. Why not have him or some beknighted professor come over to talk to us. What a wagging of ears and tails would greet him.

STORIES OF THE WAR
Obstructive Work of the Tanks.

I have just been able to approach the immediate surroundings of Chaulnes writes a correspondents on the western front. The fight has just been finished and the ground still bears the bloody marks of German de- feat.
 I have seen there an unforgottable sight of horror. I shall ever remem Der the nightmare impression of this land where death apeared under such hideous aspects.
 At Soyecourt and Le Pressoir the horizon was darkened by the smoke of big shells bursting and all around me I could see only burnt, torn and devastated landscape The German Go stroyed: The battlefield was thick with holes. 3, 5 even 10 yards deep.
 The noise of guns was still audible at a distance. Now and then shell, bursting in the immediate neighbor- hood, made me set my teeth convul- sively.
 Soon the twilight brought some calm to the sinister field, but in the last rays of the sun horrible mounds of corpses, twisted in supreme con vulsions, were discernible.
 Through that dreadful humane veg citation a few lights apeared and dis appeared from time to time. They were carried by ambulance assistants, searching for some of the few wound ed survivors among this infinity of dead Now and then a groan came to my ears, seeming like a deep com plaintng voice of this blood soaked land.
 My guide took me to the Ablaincourt Road near a small valley. From here the sight was still more terrible everything being torn to pieces. There a farm had been, in which the Ger mans had intrenched themselves; at least so I was told, for nothing re- nIained to prove the existence of the farm or the Germans.
 This devastation was the work of one of the tanks. This new and ter rible death machine had rushed upon the farm, passing the German senti- nels, who fired at it. but could hardly scratch it's iron hide. It passed quick ly on, crashing over the farm, crunch ing and dislocating everything. Walls collapsed, Slates of the roofs were splintered and scattered, the ground was deeply furrowed and trees were uprooted
 As to the Germans, they were con- pletely torn to pieces. All that re- mained disappeared under the mon strous wheels of the motorcar, which Ieveled the ground, leaving nothing but a waste, scared with red spIotch- es from which a leg or an arm emerges here and there, convulsed in a spasm of agony. The projectors throw a red theatrical light upon this dreadful field from which have come back horror stricken, but at the same time hopeful.

An effort is being made to have Thanksgiving day placed a week earlier in the calendar. making the day come, this year, on %ov. 23 instead of Nov
 30. The reason assigned is purely commercial. Organizations which are back of the movement explain that they want to give the public another week for it's Christmas shopping. People will not start buying for Christmas until after Thanksgiving. With that day coming earlier, the pub lie, it is argued. would buy more Christmas goods. With all due respect for this argument. it must be regarded as a rather cold -b1ooded proposition. No American festival has less to do with the spirit of commercialism than Thanksgiving day. It is, in fact, a religious celebration. It is the one day on which all Americans, regad- less of their creed or race, can unite E Hhe religious sentiment of gratitude t~ God for His blessings It is the tiuss- -honored custom of Americans to celebrate it on the last Thursday of November. Changing the date would not necessarily change the spirit of it; but it would be reflection on the sacred character of the day to shift

REPUBLICAN SUCCESS NEcES-
 SARY.

That there are large prospects for this country following the war cannot be denied, if there was a disposition to do so. but it must be remembered that it will also be a period of read justment- and that the foreign fields into which this country has gone be- cause others were forced to give up their foreign trade because of the war, will become an open field for all.
 That the nations of Europe will go after the trade which they have lost is equally certain. They are already making provisions for just such a purpose and it is the opinion of a prominent South American trader that they will regain what they have lost because they have the facilities for handling it and they are ready and willing to give South America what 1t wants and are not limiting it to what it is thought it should have.
 They are likewise simply waiting the time when they can pour their production into this country under the democratic free trade policies. No one recognizes the advantages of this field more than Canada. Permitted to send across the border it's production which is similar to that in this country it has profited greatly in the past few years and 1t will continue to do so with the tariff walls down to the en- barrassment of industry and labor in this country. Thus this country has reason to look to the placing of its domestic production, industrial and agricultural, on a firm basis. and not close it's eyes entirely to home condi- tions while developing foreign trade. This is one of the reasons why the success of the republicans is so i'm portant in the coming election.
