REFUNDING DEBTS.

On Monday of this sWeek the House of Representative passed a bill for creation of a commission, to be headed by the secretary of the treasury, with full authority to re- fund war debts e foreign nations due the United States and amounting to $1O,OOO,OOO,OOO.
 The passage of such a bill by the House does not make it law, but it does or should make one think. Does it mean that the bill will now be sent to the Senate, whose favor able action would result in this cour- try giving away the incomprehensi- ble sum of O,0OO,OOO,OO0? Sup posing it does and that every individ- ual in this country were assessed his share, then it would mean that every man, woman and child must coatri- bute the sum of $100.
 The sum does not seem large to many, yet to still larger number it would represent small fortune. By changing it about to different positions this little $1O0 can be made to look larger or smaller. Try adding it to the total of town, state and federal taxes you already pay and it will enlarge itself very rapidly.
 It seems improbable that our law makers in Washington, knowing economic conditions better than the average individual, as well as the burden of taxes under which the people are laboring, would make the burden still greater by such legisla- tion. We shall await with interest consideration of this bill by the Senate.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
Editor Conn. News:

Editor Conn. News:
 I was one of the guilty parties that voted no on the sidewalk question, and still think it unfair to asi, the men that have been public spirited enough to build their own to pay for the other fellows, who are not in- terested enough in the town to build theirs. And starting to build with the State and Ins. tax of $160.00 yearly disgusts me more than any thing.
 If you stop to think what it will cost to get ready and to quit the job every year you would at once see there would be about $100.00 yearly to spend on walks to tackle T $1O,- OOO.OO job 10 years for tenth part 100 years to finish.
 The idea of men with red blood talking of going at job in this man ner you might as we'll tackle Canaan Mountain with a tooth pick for all the good it would do present citizens.
 You jump up and vote tax for $500.00 extra for lighting streets all night. This amount would pay in- terest on $10,000.00 for walks. Why not borrow that amount and % at the job like men taxing the whole dis trict for the interest but collecting 10 per cent yearly from the property owners in front of whose property you lay walks to be uesd for the pur- post yearly of liquidating the princi- pal in 10 years debt would be can celled and then all parties would be on an equal footing, money collected to be used for this purpose and for no other.
 This plan would show whether lnen are really interested in this affair or whether they really wish the property owners that have laid theirs to make them a present of something for nothing it did.
 I admit by this plan the parties that have laid theirs get the worst of the bargain because the district would be taxed as a whole for the interest.
 Of course if you have not or cant get the authority to lay a walk in front of a property and collect pay, there is no use in making any fuss about the matter at all.
 Sincerely,
 H. F. Beebe.

"THE SNAIL" MAKES PORT
 HERE OVER WEEKEND
Continued from page D

immediately left for London.
 The story of his journey to Lon don and his attempts to secure even a humble position on the News, would make a book of itself. We must be content to say here that every day, for nine months, Ellwood Lloyd called on the editor of that paper and presented from different angle reasons why the News should employ him. His persistency finally won and he was ordered to Persia on an assignment which, it later proved, was for the purpose of getting rid of him through failure to properly execute a most difficult task. Lloyd was not easily discouraged, however, so instead of failing on his assign ment, he won honor. For ten years thereafter he was connected with the London News, his work taking him to all parts of the world.
 In this country, MT. Lloyd has been connected with various newspapers, being editor of the Memphis "Com- merciaP and on the editorial staff of the "Editor and Publisher" at the time he was ordered by his physician into the open. He has also been a regular contributor to a number of magazines and other publicati ons While on this trip he represents, in a fellowship manner, more than twenty different publications. In this way he hopes to cover all ex- penses of the trip, the cost of which is estimated at $1O,0OO.
 MT. Lloyd is scholar. His brilliant mind has absorbed so much knowledge gained through years of travel, rugged experiences and study, that he talks most interesting ly on any subject one elects to dis cuss. His pleasant personality is an open sesame to the confidence of those he meets. While conversing one suddenly discovers that instead of talking to little tourist, about five feet nothing in height, ne has encountered man of great breadth and unseeming stature. The wonder grows as the conversation continues, so that when the time comes to say au revoir, ones mentality is pierced with distinct feeling of loss.
