PRESIDENT ExLiotr’s NEw Book on “‘inme Littl 
about the Iailroads,” is a timely produccion, careiuly 
written, succint and preeminently tair. Lt is a pity tiar 
the persecutions of the yellow journals makes such a 
volume necessary in self defence, Careful readers ac- 
customed to thinking for themselves may disagree with 
President’s Elliott's conclusions as sharply as they differ 
with the yellow journals, but ithe expert’s testimony 
ought to be of more value than the hastily written arta- 
cles by untrained men who, while drilled in the practicai 
schools of journalism, are nevertheless incapable of draw- 
ing just conclusions concerning problems for which they 
have had no training. A new era of reconstruction is in 
store for the New Haven and President Elliott is indeed 
the “Most interesting man in New England today.” It 
is certain that he has an unusual opportunity to render 
public service to rehabilitate a broken down system that 
has nevertheless a future and gain those satisfactions in 
life that always attend success. 
Ir Was A Tracic Moment in that Georgetown 
University Law class when Professor Holmes Conrad 
asked last Saturday morning, “Who was that man in 
Kentucky who killed another and was sent to Congress?” 
And Congressman Caleb Powers of Kentucky, arose from 
his seat in the class and said, “J am that man, doctor: 
| was not guilty.” The professor immediately apologized 
and proceeded with his lecture. Caleb Powers had spent 
eight years and three months in prison fighting for his 
life charged with the murder of Governor Goebel. The 
incident was unusual and reflects credit on both men. 
Dr. Conrad’s point still remains true, even though his il- 
lustration was embarrassing for him, that is that public 
sympathy and sentiment are often too lenient with crim- 
inals. That Powers immediately assumed the accusa- 
tio; was far from discreditable. What else was there 
for him to do? To have remained silent would have been 
disastrous. 
THe Mayor or Beverty Vrrorp the permits given 
the Progressive Campaign party in the recent campaign 
to expose over the highways of the city American flags 
suspended from a hanger marked, Progressive Party. 
The veto was well written and made on high ground. 
The Progressive party made a serious mistake in pressing 
this untactful method of campaigning. The flag belongs 
to the people and not to the party called Progressive.

ANOTHER OF THE EARLY SETTLERS of the summer 
colony on the Shore has passed on to his rest,—T. K. 
Lothrop ot Beverly Farms. He was a public-spirited 
man and his quiet benetactions will be remembered for 
years to come.

THe MANCHESTER TRUST COMPANY is making good 
by making progress. Nothing succeeds like success — 
even in banking. ‘The halt a million mark was reached 
on November 1, — deposits of which any bank in a 
small town ought to proud. 
THe Socra, CENTER has come. The Beverly 
Farms pioneer movement which succeeded so well last 
year is to be repeated this year. Every resident should 
merit. 
Tur HomMEopatus are on the war path against high 
heels, Here is a trail that the osteopaths, the homeo- 
paths and all the other ‘‘paths” may follow. Let the 
good work go on. But what’s the use. The public will 
go their own path whether or no. 
Tue TarrrF Hap rts ‘TRousyes, but the great deal- 
ers were the ones bothered by its limitations and annoy- 
ances. It looks as though the income tax is more bother 
than the amount most people have to pay in. 
Ir Fresno DAN remained around home and had been 
a “good” boy he would not have had a Dakota Dan on 
his hands. It’s hard that he can have no redress; but 
then, he is reaping a part of what he sowed. 
CAPTAIN GARDNER had every thing to win and noth- 
ing to loose; Congressman or Governor, he is ever as 
popular at home. It is no small honor for a man to hold 
the respect of his home county. 
Wuo Can Brame the Savings Banks for refusing 
to receive coupons as cash? Some way must be devised 
to simplify this part of the income tax inconvenience.
