Who Pays \vlicn Rent is Increased.
Manufacturers have to pay all the
bills in the end. and an increase in
house rents merely means an in-
crease in pay roll. This is why the
industries of Bridgeport so recently
attempted to build houses that rents
might be lower.
The Morris Metal Products com-
pany went to the wall it was capl-
taiized at 8392.000. It was sold for
5240.000. it was assessed on the tax
books of Bridgeport at 81.200.000.
One of the crimes of the past was

Bridgeport was assessed on the tax
books for more than it would bring

One Town’s Dealing with Klan.
The mayor of Portsmohth. 0.. has
'shown the country how to handle the
Ku 'Kiux Klan. They paraded. in
spite of a warning. and 244 of them
were arrested. There was no mob-
bing. either by Klan or anti-Kym.
The police simply headed the proces-
sion to the station house. That is
the rendezvous which more and more
klansmen will keep—a meeting to
talk it over with the "budge" in the
light of day and without the embol-l-
ening'bedeheet of anonymity— as
the country learns that law admins-
tered with common sense is always
a complete and adequate answer to
anarchy. —-Philsdelphia Press.
The White Spats.
(Boston Globe.)
"When I was getting ready to
come to England." says the Hon.
John C. New. consul general. "my
tailor in Washington told rue that I
surely must wear spots. and he made
me a pair of white duck. I wore
them by way of experiment one day
to the White House and I noticed
as 1 ea talking to the people in the
east room that President. Harrison
eyed me askance. Presently he'got
up and beckoned me to comevout-
side. and when we got into the hall
he whispered. nervously: 'John.
your drawers are'hangiug down be.
low your pants.‘ -'rhat settled the
spat question so far as I was con-
cerned.”
