campaign was terminated by the in
decisive Battle Of Antietam, fought
on the 10th and nth of September.
In December he decisively defeated
General Burnside at fredericksburg
and the next May he defeated and
drove back General Hooker in the
Battle of charlottesville.
Battle of Gettysburg
Lee then gathered together all his
available forces and again moved
northward, his campaign ending with
the battle of Gettysburg, which took
place on the first three days Of
July, 1868. On the first two days
of this battle the advantage seemed
to rest with Lees army, but on the
third day he staked the issue in a
grand charge, which was complete
ly repulsed, and he was compelled
to retreat. He succeeded, however,
in recrossing the Potomac, and was
again safe in Virginia.
No operations Of Importance were
undertaken by either army during
the winter of 1S63-64; but early in
May, 1864, General Grant was called
to Washington, and took the field
against Lees army in person.
Grant attempted to turn Lees
right flank by a march through the
densely wooded region known as the
wilderness. Here occurred two
days bloody but indecisive fighting,
after which Grant again sought TO
turn Lees flank by marching to
Spottsylvania Courthouse. At this
place on the twelfth of May there
was another bloody and indecisive
engagement. The two commanders
continued to maneuver for some
weeks without coming to e. general
engagement and without any result,
save that Lee was gradually forced
back toward Richmond.
Lee Surrenders
In the spring of 1865 General Lee
was compelled TO abandon both
Petersburg and Richmond. He was
still holly pursued by Grant, and a
few days later at Appomattox
Court his entire force surrendered,
and the war came to an end. Leo
might have prolonged the struggle
indefinitely by breaking up his army
into guerrilla bands and scattering
them among the mountains. but this
he refused to do. There are few in

BEING PICKED UP' SRY AUTOISTS

It took the bus interests of the city some time to learn that their most serious foe is the autoist who picks up potential fares waiting on street corners, and now that they have awakened to the peril they would form an organization to dis courage the practice, among other things.
 The Connecticut company real ized the competition long ago and is suffering from it every day. It is likely that such patient suffer- ing will continue. for both the trolley and the bus interests.
 The only way to discourage this sorrowful competition is to give better service. A person who is forced to wait upon a street corner for an inordinately long time is bound to be hailed by a neighbor autsist sooner or later.
 The less opportunity patrons are given to walt on street corners the less chance that q friendly autoist will intervene and end the agony.

\ GREaT MAN GONE:
 DIR. ELIOT

The grand old man of education passed from this human stage in the death of Dr. Charles w. Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard uni verslty, at the advanced age of 92 years.
 His fame was not local, or sec tional, but national. His name was part of tho celebrity vocabulary in virtually every home in the land. He was the Nicholas Burray Butt Ter of his time. although the views of these two great educators diff fered considerably upon public topics.
 Dr. Eliot for 40 years was known as an accomplished and wise head of Harvard. and at such frequent intervals when he addressed the public through speech or the print t'tl NOl T tAtlbl5tu fh Iiilto'iNf hAiA'' ence.

party the advantage of organizing the committees and having Repub- liean chairmen. Who the chairmen of the Senate committees are to be is an important item in party gov ernment.
 Thus in New York the electorate is being told that if Senator Wads- worth loses, the Republicans will lose control of the Senate commit tees. In Massachusetts the cleo torate is being told the same thing in case Senator Butler Is not re- elected. Other tight states are being inundated with the same ar gument, which in reality is the latest variation of the stand by Coolidge" slogan.
 The Republican party is justified in feeling ill at ease over the cir cumstances that have arisen in New York. Had the Republican managers followed President Cool idge's wishes earlier in the cam paign the wet and dry issue would not have arisen. All things con sidered, MT. Coolidge is much more able technician than MT Wadsworth.
New Britain herald., 1926-08-23
NBW YORK STATES . POLITICAL BREW

The question facing tho Repub- lican campaign managers in the Empire State is comparatively simple: Can Senator Wadsworth squeeze through in face of the cer- tain reelection of Governor Smith?
 Both are for modification of the dry law Both see eye to eye with respect to the prohibition referen- dunn. On other political and eco- homie issues, however, they are not very similar, the governor be- ing Jeffersonian, the Republican senator rather conservative, if not hard -shelled reactionary in some respects.
 Senator Wadsworth faces the most serious battle of his career. Whereas Governor Smith has such overwhelming strength in New York City as to easily counterbal- ance the Republican strength up state, Senator Wadsworth lacks strength in the metropolis and faces division among Republicans elsewhere in the state. If the d. element in the Republican party runs an independent candidate for senator, as it threatens to do, Wadsworth no doubt will be de- feated.
 Small wonder that Senator Wadsworth and other New York Republican whips have been auto- mobilng to White Pine camp fol advice.
 President Coolidge has given out i the information he is not inclined i to interfere" in the scrambled politics in New York; and no doub any interference he could allow ! himself to attempt would amour to little under the circumstances.
 But the President is vitally in terested in the reelection of Sena ' tor Wadsworth, not because of tho i man personally or because he il 
 from New York state, but becaus' l his presence in the Senate may b' i the one Senate vote necessary t give the Republican party contro of the organization of the Uppe House.
 The Republican statisticians hay 1t all figured out as to how man, of the party's senatoEs will be re 1 turned, and the word has gon
 forth that there may be ma

 Much difficulty was encountered.

fiickering beacon turns their way. A New Britainite who has just re- turned from a visit to friends in Pennsylvania recounted the com plaints heard there against the air mail beacon lights, which shine into darkened rooms with the power of sunlight. even though the homes may be miles away from the lights.
 But there seems to be no escape from this new modern nuisance incident to night travel by air. In the winter time, when darkness droops early in the evening, the beacon lights will be absolutely necessary for the guidance of air. men; and if the Boston-New York air mail line is 10. be continued regardless of business, or is going into the express and passenger business to help make it pay, it seems that there is no escape from the powerful sun-like beacons. '' Our guess is that when the tow CTS and the beasons are erected along the New England route, one of them will be placed at or near Berlin. That certainly will liven the | town up at night, and the groans of dissatisfaction will be heard all the way to New Britain. Our guess is predicated upon the fact that 1 Berlin is about 10 miles distant from the Hartford flying field, and the route to New York seems to pass over the vicinity of that town.
 If such a tower and beacon is 1 placed at or near Berlin, however, Kensington and New Britain will not be free from the intermittent night glare. Perhaps one good fea- ture will be that automobiles won't need such strong lights for night driving. The beacon will furnish all the light necessary if anybody happens to be going home lin the dark" z
 Yes, something more 10 worry about. But the beacons won't go up for a little while and it is still possible to enjoy the milder moon-
 light for the present.
