EDITORIAL SYMPOSIUM.
The great outpouring of people to at-
tend the mass meeting at. the Norwalk
Opera House, and the enthusiasm which
prevailed, indicate, beyond a doubt,
that there is a strong sentiment this year
in favor of no license. The Citizens'
league. under whose paternity the
gathering was held, have undertaken a
most commendable work‘in striving to
tone up the morals of the community;
' but the good men who are laboring to
this end would, we believe, reach the
goal of success more quickly by herding
the Norwallr Gazette‘s wellvtimed sug-
gestion "that they malts a crusade against
theoiicials through whose treacherous
connivance the illegal liquor sellers es‘
cape punishment, as well as against ofii-
cials ituilty of notifying offenders of in»
tended arrest." We join hands with the
Gazette, also, in the vehemently express-
edsentiment that “ 'principle’ is a good
thing in fighting the rum evil, but ‘pat-
rousge,’ free drinks, and a corrupt jusv
(imbibe-peace system, have vitiated
and. continue to vitate all that honest
and earnest workers for temperance can
do." We went officials who are above
, such corruput practicvs as have been wit-
neesed in Norwalk within the past few
weeks, and only by getting at this root
of the evil, can the Uitizens' [mains hope
to achieve success in its no licmse enter-
prise. W. A. 'l‘.
The Norwalk. harbor should receiva-
furtber attention from Congress. Of
course the mariners are grateful for the
appropriation of $20,000 made a few
weeks ago, but this sum, it is undu-

tween the head of navigation and tie

very unreasonable about their demand.
It has been predicted that the eastern

lweating system. iFor this let all men
pray. p
The sweating system in clothing
making seems to have grown to its pres-
ent iniquitous dimensions without its
being anybody’s fault in particular. The
competition among the merchants, man-
ufacturers, contractors and working peo-
ple themselves is so tremendous that no
other result could have been looked for.
The wholesale merchant soils to the re-
tail. The retail man must make his
profit. So must the wholesale 111mb. The
manufacturer sells to the wholesale mer-
chant, and the manufacturer must make
his profit. In order to make this still
larger. the nmnufacluror lets out the
clothing in large quantities to contract-
ors, who make it at so much per lot.
The contractor must make his profit
too. He gives the work to poverty
stricken wretchcs who cannot do any-
thing else. He naturally wants to get
all he cart. Consequently he grinds
down the wages to the lowest cent. It
does not matter to him whether the
sewer lives or dies, just so he can get
the sewing done a little cheaper and so
get larger returns. This is the result of
that glorious system of competition
which‘somo economists call the soul of
trade. In some cases it man has had to
sew l8 hours a day to earn $12 a week.
The hapless wmtch. 3 even sow on Sun-
day at times. The worst, saddest part of
it all is that for every while slnvo who
is ground to death in this torture mill
there are two to take his place.
Now is the Time.
There never was a mortal want that
there did not stand somebody ready to
supply it. The thing is to know just
where to put your finger on the person
who is waiting to accommodate you. If
you would advertise your want and he
would advertise his willingness to sup-
ply it, both of you would be brought to-
gether immediately.
Moreover, needs are supplied quickest
and most easily when they are met nour-

live stock, grtx'eries, dry goods or mn—

In other words. advertise in your home
