REVEREND DIR WALKER TAKES ISSUE AGAINST
 PAYMENT OF BONUS
Waterbury, Conn.
 March 25th, 1885.

Waterbury, Conn.
 March 25th, 1885. Editor, Waterbury Democrat:
 Reverend Dr John c. Walker, pastor of the Second Congregation nl Church, addressed his congre- gation last Sunday on several issues that are now pending before the national and state legislative bodies. l admire the reverend for his outspoken statements and be- lieye he is sincere in what he says. I wish to take issue with him in only one of the fields that he cov- cred in his Sunday sermon. And that one is the matter of the Pat man bill to pay off the so-called soldiers bonus.
 Regardless of past war profits of every description both to capital and labor I will concede to the Reverend that patriotism should not be sold at price. Personally I am willing to let bygones be by zones and will not use the common argument that the soldiers are en- titled to their adjustment in pay because the majority of the stay at homes profited during the war and post war period.
 If the reverend will as effective ly use his effort against the con tinuance of interest payments to the bond holders who year after year continue to exact a profit from the war bonds I will gladly forego any and all claims to my bonus. If the holders of war bonds will joi.l l-. .,kn n 4 will throw their interest coupons into the fire will throw my ad- justed pay certificate in with them. 1 do not ask that they throw in tho principal. Since the end of the World War the holders Of war bonds have collected approximately seven billion dollars in interest. That billion Is spelled with a B not with an M.
 You wonder good reverend how many billions the veterans expect to collect in the aggregate? And continue to say, This is patriotism at a price and what 8 priceW Could you not apply the same ex- precision to the holders of war bonds? To give you credit for your sincerity, because you may not have thought about 1t, would like to have you express your views with regard to continuing the pay ment of approximately $400,00O in interest each year to the holders of war bonds. If past experience means anything this interest pay rnent will continue to be exacted long after the World War veterans shall have passed into the beyond.
 Personally feel that I am as patriotic a citizen as any other hu- man being in this land. have sacrificed both In health and mon. cy as result of the war. 1 wiN continue tn he 9strint,c but do noi

| by Mercier de la Riviere Dupont df Nemours, editor of the works o1 Quesnay, and of the Physiocratic journals.
 The general doctrine of the Physiocrats is an extension Of the economic sphere of the theory of natural liberty which Locke Shaftesbury, and others have ap-
 piled to the sphere of politics and religion, and they deny that tho natural rights of the individual can be abridged by any social contract.
 Every man, they hold, has a
 right to the free exercise of hts faculties, so long as he does not in- fringe the like liberties of others, and this involves the further right to the undisturbed enjoyment oI the property, which results from the exercise of his faculties in pro- ductive labor. It follows from these rights that the sole function Of government is to protect life and property, and to administer justice, and no interference by the lGovernment with commerce and in- dustry is permissible. In other words, "To govern better it Is nec-
 essary to govern less" This view i did not become common until the latter half of the Eighteenth Gen. tury. The maxim "Laissez- Faire", appears to have been popularized | by Gourmay to whom 1t was at- tributed until within recent years.
 MT Dupont de Nemours gives us the interpretation of what the | Physiocrats mean by property rights. He has coined an old phil osophy that was never preached Tn the circles of civilized men, since the days of the tyrant George III and the Tallyrand theories of Ma poleon Bonaparte and his dream of a world empire. cite as an ex- ample "LOuverture" the French attempt to restore slavery in the
 Republic of Santo Domingo.
 The Declaration of Independence blazoncd forever on the records of | civilization that "All men are en- dowed by their Creator with cer- tain inalienable rights-life, liber- ty, and the pursuit of happiness" which is the primary duty of the government to preserve. The founders of this government wrote
 the Constitution expressly to pro- mote the general welfare. Mark well those that preach this doc- Urine of "Laissez-Faire". It is the doctrine of those who wish to pre- serve want in the midst of plenty
 and the unconstitutional set-up of our present financial system. They prefer the racketeering of Napo- leon I to the liberties as propound-
 ed and fought for by a Washing
 ton. Do not be deceived by the propaganda of international hypo- critics who worship at the shrine of the Constitution. Such theories as | ''Laissez- Faire" reveal with terrify-
 ing clearness what is in their
 hearts. :. gs

The Connecticut tercentenary stamp design has finally been selected. It will bear replica of the famous Charter Oak. Thus in the short space of a few years the United States has seen fit to place two trees on a commemorative stamp. Remen- Der the Arbor Day stamp of a few years back? It also paid tribute to a tree, small one in this instance. We are hopeful that the Connecticut tercentenary will not be the ordinary size postage issue. We ought at least to get large-sized stamp out of it. And if good old Postmaster "Jim" Farley is going to distribute any imperforate and ungummed sheets to friends, we hope he'll be looking this way when he does it. Might we mention a word. too, for good old Commodore Jack" Barry The national legislators are labor ing in his behalf now. They want com memorative- in his honor. You couldn't pick a nicer subject.

A Good Job

Unknown to the average citizen work is quietly proceeding in Waterbury, as we'll as every other city and town in Con- necticut, that will when completed defin- itely link the community of today with that of the past. We refer to the plans that the tercentenary commission is making to have appropriate markers set up at his- toric points in the state. And that natur- ally includes every town in the state. Right here in Waterbury there are many citizens diligently looking up rec ords in an effort to bring to light the city's historical houses, sites, etc. In time they will be properly marked so that all who pass may stop and read. This is mighty interesting work, something that should really have been done long before this tercentenary year. We are glad, though, that something came along that hurried the work.
 Other places have upon occasions mark ed historical sites with tablets. Waterbury for years has been remiss in this respect. Many probably can recall the hard work that the late D. H. Tierney put into his plan to have proper recognition taken of the passage of the French army through Waterbury in the days of the Revolution ary war It was only after the most stren- uous effort that he was able to get suitable monuments erected. Connecticut is not as colonial-minded in this respect as neigh boring states. We are awakening and it is good to see that Waterbury is right in line.

But for several months now Roosevelt has had to rely on himself and Mcintyre.
 The result is that even Mrs Roosevelt and Anna Dall Boet- tiger have made one or two quiet moves to see that the president diversifies his list of callers, be- comes cmancipated from the dic- tatorship of his Appointment CZar.
 ALWAYS ..
 Oklahoma's startling Repre- sentative Percy l.. Gassaway, Of ten-gallon hat and cowboy boots, gave the president quite shock at the last White House recep- tion. .
 Roosevelt was standing in the receiving line welcoming the hundreds of guests when Gass- away loomcd up before him. He was attired in impeccable even ing clothes-plus his high -heeled cowboy boots.
 After the Oklahoman had passed, the president turned to an aide, inquired incredulously:
 "Does Mr Gassaway always wear those bOOts?"
 ".Always, Mir President" was the reply.

Washington, March 26.-All signs indicate that the White House secretariat is scheduled for some real overhauling.
 This is not due entirely to the elimination of Louey Howe, though his absence is most keen ly felt. 1t is due chiefly to the fact that the presidents closest advisers are becoming more and more convinced that only one type of caller is get ting inside White House doors.
 This blame they lay at the feet of Marvin Mcintyre, who passes on all presidential ap- pOintments, and beyond any doubt is the most powerful man around the White House. g |. There was a day in the first part of the administration when cross-section of the country men of every creed and color got in to see the president. It kept him in constant touch with what the nation was thinking.
 Now this has changed. And in the list of callers, day in and day out, there is a decided pre- dominance of the representative of big business.
 MOLEY'S MEALS
 1 Professor Moley has been one Treason for this. Ever since he become receiver of the St Regis hotel and began staging big busi- ness dinners in New York, Moley has been constantly trotting down to the White House to in- troduce some new financial po- tentate to the president.
 But the chief reason has been Mcintyre.
 A man of anything but a New Deal background, Mcintyre has gone in for dinners, dances, Vir- ginia hunt breakfasts and all the trappings which an effete Wash ington society can heap on a gov ernment official who has access to the throne. Mcintyre has talk en 1t all and asked for more. He has surpassed even Charles Cur tis' -watermark in the old Hoover days as the chief diner out of the Capital.
