hnsylvania that the people gené
'p'ily‘heiieve that this great state is
’ , derelict in the care and protection
the youthful workers. This is not
lift case, however, in and about the
no mines, as a very careful investiga-
.‘ith has demonstrated. The depart
out has made a very earnest effort to
ascertain the facts of the matter "
J ,From‘the reports of the mine inspec-
t rs, superintendents, foreman and oth—
ers it has been ascertained that “no
boy under fourteen years of age is em-
played outside the anthracite mines
and none under sixteen inside of the
mines " An investigation was made of
R‘greport that boys under the legal
.axe were employed in mines in Sulli-
gn county; but, although the depart-
ent spent a large sum in investigat-
ing, the report was found to be un-
' true.
Considerable attention is given in
theireport to the first-ald-to-the-iniured
corps, emergency hespitals, and relief
nds established by the operators fol
on employees On the subject of
scoldents, the report shows that 57 per
cent. were due to carelessness of min
ere, According to Chief Roderick's fig»
tiresg Pennsylvania has 096 anthracite
mines, employing 114,998 inside and

‘ The batters of the couhtry are to be

Wrment of the points of disagreement
with the manufacturers. which threat-
ened to precipitate a stupendous strike
.and one which would inevitably have
worked hardship, long drawn out upon
thousands of workmen and their fam-
“Tiles.
The settlement of the union label
matter. and points dealing with the
conduct of shops and departments was
effected only after long and repeated
conferences, and the uncertainty of the
outcome was painful up to the very
last moments of the very last confer
ence. Never was an industrial crisis
more earnestly discussed and seldom
. are the labor conferences character-
. ized by such intelligent consideration
as this problem between the but manu-
facturers and their cmploycs. And the
‘ outcome is creditable to both sides.
NORWALK BOARD OF HEALTH.
(New London Day.)
The city of Norwalk has a board of
health which seems to answer to the
description of a body that would
strain at a goat and swallow a camel.
The board has ordered the Connecti-
cut Company.‘ its gas provider. to dis-
continue usiug its whistle to call its
, men to headquarters when. they are
~ y wanted quickly. but has not attempted
f to regulate night time scflschlng of
the railroad locomotives. «The Con-
necticut Company is administering
poetic justice by refusing any longer
to allow use of its whistle as a lire
alarm, which use has been given Era-
ttis for years past. The board of health
is now due for a berating from fire-
men and many other citizens for its
hasty action.

than that and the towns themselves
would have opportunity to bid for the

through the comptroller's ollice on
'cortillcate of the highway commis-
sioner and the town would be called
on to pay its share of the expense up«
on certificate of the latter official that
the road. was completed.
An excellent feature of the law. the
commissioner said, was that which
provided for the repairs of the roads
built by the state. Under that pro-
vision there would be no reason to non»
iccl. roadways and fail to give them
such slight repairs as they frequently
needed, and which if made would pre-
vent a much larger expenditure in the
future .
Regarding the policy of the state
in the building and maintenance of the
highways under the new law, Com-
missioner Mncdonald said that. as far
as the administration of the law was
in his hands there would be no change
from the former policy he had pur-
sued which was to build roads where
the citizens of the town and the state
had most need for them. That meant
that due regard was to be bad for the
main highways, those connecting and
running through adjoining towns,
which were the main traveled high
ways.
Commissioner Macdonnld said that
the feature in the new law of the
state paying the bills and then call
ing on the town for its proportion of
the amount expoilded—ouc-eighth
where the grand list of the town was
$1,250,000 or under and one-fourth
where the grand list exceeded that
amount—vwas that in cities and
voted to the solectmcn, warden and
burgesscs, street commissioners or
board of public works, any uncxpcnd-
ed balance was returned direct to the
local treasury and was not available
for‘olhor work, the case where the
municipality received money from
the state, while. under the present law.
the state drawing from the town or
municipality its quota of the amount.
there was nothing to be turned into
the local treasury. The town must
vote to expend the gross amount rc<
quirod. the state made the disburse-
its onecighlh or one- -o11a1tcr of the
amount voted.
Mr. Macdonaid said that he thought
he had made clear, when be ad
dressed the big locating in the Hall of
Representatives during the recent
session of the General Assmhly what
would be the policy oi the state as to
the expenditure of the money. Al-
though the sum of $4,500,000 was
authorized to be expended in annual
installments of $7? 0.000 for six years,
not one dollar of the amount would
be expended unless iowus made up-
plicatlou for it. Already hourly eight
months of the first year had expired
and ho had. or rather there was in
tile stale treasury, $700,000 available
for the year. yet llicrc would be no
undue haste about it, no extravagance
and no false economy. if the towns
did not choose to take advantage of
the iihei'aiily of the state the money
would not be expended. but he
thought that a town which did not
take advantage. of the law and thus
improve its highways did not fully
appreciate the situation and the gen-
erosily of the law makers.
Referring to the action of the Gen-
erai Assembly in making an appro.
priation for an automobile for the use
of the commissioner, which had been
somewhat criticised. the. commission-
er said that the action of the Gen-
eral Assembly was wholly in the in
terest of economy. By providing the
commissioner with means of trans-
portation the slate saved the expense
of transportation which was quite
large traveling over the 50.000 miles
of roads in the state. The state was
simply saving the profit on the ox-
pondituro which the auto 1111111 got
when the auto was hired. llorsc tramp
portailon was out of the question.
it. Would take many relays of horses
to convey the commissioner on the
tours of inspection of roads all over
the state which he expected to make.
The auto was the only practicable
conveyance. for railroads and trolleys
were frequently remote from where
the highways were to be built.
The commissioner said that he
would like to complete the main road
from New Haven to Springfield of
which there was only about ten
miles out macadamiaed in. the entire
distance of sixty miles, about eight
and a half miles in East Windsor and

five miles of road from Baybrook

Averill is mailing to the town clerks of
the state and to be ab and city
officials who are interested a copy of
the recently enacted dog laws with the
following letter: ~
Dear sin: The general assembly
of 1907 has repealed all of the old dog
laws on the statute book and has
enacted a new code to take their pla~
sea. The new not went into effect on
July 1; with the exception that dog
owners are given until October 1 to se-
cum from the town clerks a metal tag
to be attached to their dogs collar;
and seiectmen are given until Octo~
her 1 to appoint dog wardens.
As the public acts of 1907 will not
be published and placed in the hands
of the public much before September
1 and as you have certainf duties to
perform under the new law, I am mail-
ing you berewithil in pamphlet form,a
corrected copy of chapters 167 and 170,
of the public acts of 1907 as amended
and entitled, respectively, “An not con—
cerningldogs” and “An act concernig
the prevention and treatment of rabies.
Section 14 places upon this department
of those laws; I am, therefore, taking
the liberty at this early date to offer
a few suggestions to you in the hope
that we may be the better enabled to
work together in sympathy and hers
mony ill our earnest efforts to enforce
the law.
if the new law has Added to our of-
ficial duties and responsibilities and
allowed us slight. or perhaps no extra
compensation, let us prove toour con-
stituencies that We will. not shirk our
civic duty and will endeavor to secure
a. strict enforcement of the law.
It is a fact well known that in nearly
every town in the state there have
been many dogs that have not been
registered under the old law and not
more than one half of those that have
been registered have eyer had a collar
on as has been required by the law.
Under the new law every registered
dog must not only wear a collar, but
there must be nttadbed to it a tag
the shape of which will indicate to the
casual observer whether the dog in ii
ceased up to date or not' It will thus
be a very easy matter for the. public to
know if the law is being enforced or
it will be no hardship for the owner
to secure a tag for his dog. and it
must be- made a hardship for him to
neglect or refuse to do it,
The duties of town clerks and se-
lcctmcn under the new law are simi-
lar to those performed by them under
the old law; I desire, however, to
give a few suggestions as follows:
To Town Clerks.
When you give out a tag for a den
that has been registered in another
town you should demand and rec clvc
the tug previously woin by the dog.
it is not necessar for dogs under
a kennel license to car the collar
and lag unless they are allowed to be
at large.
You should when you give out a tug
place the number thereof on your 1c
cords so that tho ownci may be identi-
fied by the tug number.
You are required to appoint a dog
wnrdcn on or before October 1, this
year, and on or before April 1 1111111111in
thereafter.
Dog wardens appointed by you will
have no jurisdiction in boroughs or
cities as the wardens of boroughs and
the chiefs of police of cities have the
authority to appoint for their respect
ivc jurisdiction.
i would earnestly request solcctmcn,
borough wardens and chiefs of police
to report the names and addresses
of dog owners wardens as soon as they
have been appointed.
