A new freirbt depot i, expected to

A new freight depot is expected to result from the visit of the railroad officials yesterday. It is pretty cer- tain. also, that the wire fence at the depot, which looks a great deal like q chicken coop arrangement, will be abolished, although some substitute must be devised to keep the people off the third rail track.
 The polo season will be opened in New Britain Friday night, when New Haven will play here. The local teams will be composed of Higgins, Cunningham. rush; Louis Main. center: Mortimer Rhodes, halfback; Starkie, goal

 Another false alarm of fire was sounded at Russell & Erwin's this morning. this being the third in the past few weeks.

DEPENDS ON WHOSE OK

The Chicago Tribue has unctuous- ly declared that the people if Hi nois knew all about Frank L.. smith before they elected him sena- tor; and that the people of Pennsyl- vania knew about Vare's fund before they elected him. Is the moral sense Of the senate to be substituted for the moral sense of state? the paper then inquires. This can easily be answered. As the Constitution gives the Senate the right to judge the moral qualification of those who would enter it's portals, and as there are Democrats and Insurgents in that body who want to exercise their constitutional rights, there is every likelihood that the Senate's moral sense is going to figure in the situa- tion.

OUR BUSY LITTLE BUILDING COMMISSION

Is there anything of official mo- m5nts around the city hall in which the baaing commission is not identified? Is there an issue of the public press in which the name oi the commission does not figure in the headlines? Is there a day when the daredevil inspector, A. N. Ruth erford is not hieing off somewhere to investigate some possible infrac- tion of the law, tell some unsuspect- ing tenement owner where to head in, or otherwise let the public thoroughly understand that a build lng commission is a live, virile or ganization, and not "a civic orna- ment?
 In one day there was the follow ing stirring agenda: Investigating buildings suspected of not being en- tirely tornado defying; roofing out instances of improperly dense hous- ing; keeping an eye on certain build ing lines around structures being erected; making a report upon Q prominent sign; looking up at a church spire in a speculative mood; being caHed in to. settle a dispute over a fence. And so forth.
 The commission seems to be on the jump from dawn to midnight; one wonders how its members now have time to become acquainted with their families.
 It Is gratifying to have such an inquisitively ebullient building com- mission, one full O pep charged with bsand new batteries. Nothing seems to escape its eagle eyes; nobody IS putting on the brakes 10 keep 1t from delving in and out to see what is going on, make reports, issue orders and make itself useful gen. erally. As the mayor looks on his eyes are filled with the twinkle of satisfaction: the Common Council as yet is not filled with the dregs of envy; the public has awakened to the realization that a municipal body does not necessarily need to be a dead one.
 Our advice to the building com mission is to keep up the momentum and make the buildings, spires, hous- ing, building lines, fences and every

IMPROVING AN ANCIENT PILE

2. At last it is learned definitely that the New York, New Haven ana Hartford railroad is to improve the venerable railroad station Tn New Britain, the improvements to consist of relocating the ticket of- flee and the construction of more sanitary arrangements.
 At the same time 1t is stated once again that new railroad sta- don for New Britain is entirely out aof' the question.
 The mixed feelings that arise in one at the contemplation of this extensive building program are too much for words.
 Perhaps it means that the station will be with us for another fifty years.

NON-POLTTICAL TAX REDUCTION

With all statesmen and politicians perking eagle eyes toward the year 1928 and it's presidential nominations, it is doubtful whether non- political, nonpartisan tax reduc- tion is possible at this time.
 President Coolidge. in announcing his latest pronunciamento has given it as his opinion that politics should not be considered in connec- ton herewith. He may be sincere about it: but the wish is not likely to have excessive standing in Con- gress. ....
 The last tax reduction was some- what nonpartisan. although Presi- dent Coolidge invariably gets the credit when it is mentioned.
 The coming tax reduction will not be somewhat nonpartisan. The Democrats and Insurgents are not likely to permit any campaign ma terlal to develop between now and the next presidential tornado with out emphasizing its nature.
 The President may want non partisan tax reduction and may get some kind of reduction; but as everyone knows, the Republican leaders" spellbinders and poli- ticians generally will not hesitate to make claims thereafter having nothing in common with non- partisanship.
 mats one reason why non-politi- cal tax reduction at this time is quite impossible.

PRINCETON ENDS
 THE "BIG THREE"

The colorful Big Three" has ex- isted since 1877, when the sport spotlight was upon it every autumn during the annual period of foot ball excitement Now, through the action of the Princeton athletic board, such relations are broken off with Harvard.
 The consensus appears to be that the rebuke inflicted by Princeton against Harvard is well taken. The policy of Harvard has been one to irritate Princeton, especially the re- ported desire to provide for liar vard- Yale games annually, but to have games with other universities only intermittently.
 The character of insults hurled at Princeton during the game in Cam bridge last Saturday were beyond the patience of any self-respecting body of men. The Lampoon pig edi- torial, an attempt at undergraduate smartness, was the quintessence of bad taste, but no doubt was an ac- curate reflection of the state of mind on the Charles.
 President Hibben of Princeton and the board of athletic control, are to be congratulated upon giving the nation to understand that when the spirit of college submerges below gentlemanly standards it is necessary to break off friendly re- lations.

Spreckles Will Combat
 Tiaiuana Race Track

San Francisco, Nov. Il ReRu- dolph Spreckles. leading proponent of the recently defeated move to legalize horse race betting in Cali- fornia, disclosed here last night that he is out to put Tiajuana. Mex. out of business insofar as racing is con- cerned.
 Spreckies said that his move was in reprisal for the opposition of Tiajuana interests to the California racing measure. In a recent cam- paign speech the millionaire sports man said that the Mexican resort had subscribed $5.0O0 to the fund of those opposing the racing meas ures.
 Racing starts at Tiajuana the latter part of this month. Spreckles said that his plan would not become op- perative until after the season was already under way.

ing board, something that friends of the governor say he Is unlikely to do.
 The Massachusetts Supreme court, finding there has been no CT. TOT, and denying the appeal for a new trial, has set its face firmly against any technicality that might weaken the law.
 Three men will, if the case now goes to it's logical conclusion, give up their lives for the murder of one person. This, of course, Is nothing unusual. It is the law. and is just law, and should act as deterrent to the commission of similar crime It says in effect, If one is guilty all are guilty"
 The three youths went armed and were prepared to shoot when they entered the carbarn, although pos sibly preferring to attain their ob- jective without pulling trigger When the watchman was met with one of them. perhaps unnecessarily shot him dead. When this act was committed perhaps the two con- panions of the killer did not think it was necessary to go to such ex- treme measures but did not have sufficient time to stay the hand of the other.
 The law holds all three equally guilty. The defence that the actual killer was insane at the time he fired the shot made a poor impress sion with the high court, which bluntly said such claims cannot be made to screen the guilty"
 Governor Fuller has the sole power to initiate the pardon ma chinery and place it before the pardoning board. A governor should not be loaded with such responsi- bility. On the one hand he is told the law must be frightened against the depredations of criminals; on the other hand he is importuned not to permit at least two youths, ''who did not intend to shoot" to go to the electric chair.
