CHINESE BANDITS ARE BOLD
Also Thoroughly Organized and Far
Better Disciplined Than Are the
Regular Troops.

The Japan Advertiser summarizes an
article by an anonymous writer. who
describes himself as "a retired Man.
churian bandit" which was recently
published In TaiyO. He classifies these
professional looters into five groups ::
those led by former government Off
Gals who have lost office; those led by
Ordinary people,; those led by men
or military experience who are sup
ported by Chinese army officers those
led by men with a political purpose,
generally financed at present by the
Bolsheviki. and those who take TO
the woods" as protest against mis-
government.
These bandits are organized accord
ing 10 the present system OF the CHI
nese army, into sections of 100 men
or more and battaliOns of several
times that number. Each section is
composed Of three companies and each
company of three squads, with a full
complement of officers. They use Rus
sian, japanese and Chinese rifles and
h"Nt a it" EuuS anu
tain guns. The equipment is the priv
ate property of the leaders. Discipline
Is far stricter than in the regular Chi

LIQUID REFRESHMENTS

To the taxpayers of the county
the efrontery of the Hartford Re-
publican's apology for the water
scandal must have seemed like add
ing insult to injury. OF all the in
aDe, indeed childish excuses for the
waste of public money in paying
eight times the worth of the service
rendered! The water company was
not making expenses, il says: there
fore il was obligatory upon the Fis-
cal Court to pay high enough rates
10 keep the company from suspend
ing operations. Why not undertake
to keep up the ice company and a
coal company? They also furnish
commodities that are used in the
public buildings. But the public feels
no obligation to keep up all such or
any one OF them. Water is a con-
venience but not such a one as justi-
fes the wanton waste OF public
money therefor.
This pandering to the oxorbitant
demands OF corporate interests is
what breeds prohteering. We do
not know that the water company
here has never returned a dividend
on its investment. but II that should
be true, II is no reason for the
county TO single II out for the help
ing hand of charity: The spectacle
OF the Hartford Republican present
ing Messrs. NJ. l.. Heavrin. u. G.
Barrass. ct al. otherwise known as
the Kentucky Light & Power Coz as
masquerading in the role OF the
mendicant is indeed ludicrous.
We are further RECALLED with the
claim that our philanthropic public
service corporation has been forced
70 charge such excessive rates be-
cause OF the Increased cost OF fuel.
