reconsider and decide to think It
over. She owed oliver too much
to disregard Jeanie's invitation

in the words Of command.

that afternoon. The burden OF

girl asked her II she would give

SANDERS OF THE PAST

II is said that during a political
campaign one can say almost any
thing and not run counter to the
libel or SANDER laws. Few candi-
dates ever have time to run down
every Islander that is uttered: if they
did the campaign would be over be-
fore they got fairly started. They
find themselves the victims of cir
cumstances 1t is quite distressing
that in almost every campaign
ISLANDERS instead of issues should
have such an important part. Some
would damn the entire system OF
democracy on this score, but these
have yet to show that any other
species of government is free Of the
biting tongue and the evil MIND.
Somebody on the New York World
read some dozen volumes of Ameri-
can history on the lookou for
SANDER stories that had figured in
American campaigns. 1t was a
notable effort and brought forth II
disconCerting list From the time Of
SANDER seemed to be an ammunl-
ton Of democracy.
II was said of George Washing
ion that he drew $4,000 more than
his salary from the treasury during
his first term: that he held the peo-
committed a murder; that he was so
cowardlv during the Revolution that
he wrote secret letters to abandon
the cause.
II was said of John Adams that he
was shyster. and through trickery
procured the acquittal OF murderers
in the Boston massacre: that he got
his son to marry a British princess
royal and schemed to have nobility
! in the colonies and a hereditary
/ President: that he became Presiden,
by fraud and knavery.
! 1t was said Of jefferson that he
lived grossly impure private life.
that he was an atheist who would
overthrow all religion: that ne wa.
an habitual liar; that he was q

PLAlNVli.LE CROSSING

At hearing before the Public
| Utilities Commission the Northamp-
ton division OF the New Haven rail
road. running through Plainville,
Southington, etc. was the topic Of
discussion.
1t seems that the branch line has
come to a rather low estate. Accord
ing to the evidence of the railroad
officials, the only service over the
line now consists OF one freight train
each way, making two trains a day
1t is no passenger line at all. and
seemingly, nobody misses the lack of
passenger trains Even the freight
trains, which used to be more
numerous, have been whitfield down
to only the one local freight each
way every day. For one thing, the
bridges on the line are not strong
enough to stand the weight of the
larger and more important freight
trains that used to roll over the
branch, these having been switched
to other routes.
In spite of there being only two
freights over the rails daily, how
ever, and the offer OF the railroad
officials to stop them at each cross
ing through the towns and have a
man walk ahead to the crossing with
a flag and thus protect traffic. there
was a demand for regular grade
tenders. There are said to have been
citizens who favored the railroad s
plan, but apparently they were too
busy to show up at the hearing.
A line that has descended to such
low estate as to have only two way
freights day over it hasn't far to 60
to do away with even these. Our bet
is that if the railroad Is forced to
provide crossing tenders for two
trains a day in the near future
the line will be ready 10 be scrapped
and the little freight hauled over it
will proceed to the towns by trucks

CAL 81. FOR JOY

One Of the indoor mental sports in
the Herald office has been watching
the decrepit letter box across the
street. 1T used TO hang to pole a
sort of hitching post, and this was
manhandled by so many automobiles
that sometimes it projected from tine
sidewalk at an angle OF A. degrees
II is no longer there. however. a
nice new and handsome" box hav-
ing taken its place and this is at
tached to one of the Connecticut
company's iron monuments. It now
will be difficult for automobiles to
get at and injure the letter box.
Which reminds us that Post
master Erwin has been trying 10 get
new letter boxes for New Britain Tor
a long time. II requires much
diplomacy and patience to do this, it
appears: but finally they arrive.
The city is due to have other let
ter boxes erected.
