and conceded honesty of purpose. The
most commendable act of his public career
was his honest and manly declaration that
he had discovered the ingratitude and stub
born Bourbonism of the Southern Democ-
racy. II Is all very well to talk of what
should be and might have been, and to sus-
tain pretty theories on the basis of ought-to-
be, but Mr.. FOSTER should remember in
his forthcoming effort that the theory OF
the Southern policy has failed under the
practical test of experience. We might
add, in this connection, as remotely applica'
bic to the inception of that theoretical
policy, that Bon INoERsoLL denies the ex'
istcuce OF pavement concreted and as

The mayor OF New York city has vetoed the
steam heating project. He Is OF the opinion
that no such grant or privilege should be given
in the absence Of experimental proof Of the
adaptability OF the proposed system Of heating,
and that in the event of the success of such ex-
perimentS the privilege of carrying the system
into effect, which would unquestionably be one
of great value, should be disposed of after pub
lie competition In such manner as to produce
the greatest amount of revenue to the CITY,
Meanwhile, the Holly system has been put in
successful operation in Springfield, Massa-
chuSettS. The five miles Of pipe which heat
Lockport, n. Y, are to be increased two
miles this year. The same system In use in
both or these towns is the one which it is pro-
posed TO introduce in New York The pressure
on the pipes in Springfield and Lockport Is from
25 TO 80 pounds, but In the houses the pressure
Is always five pounds, no more and no less since
valves in the cellars reduce and regulate the
pressure. There is a meter by which the con-
sumner can read the amount registered from day
TO day. As the main pipes expand with the
steam, junction boxes are placed at the end of
every section OF 0feet to obviate the difficulty
To the bottom of these boxes the service pipes,
or laterals, are attached, so that all the water
condensed In the mains Is driven by the pressure
up the lateralS into the buildings, where it Is
let of by an automatic steam trap. Pipes also
lead from each radiator to the trap, and a waste
pipe takes all the condensation into the sewer
This trap, the junction boxes. the regulating
valves and meter are the Characteristic features
OF the Holly system.

The Coming Contest i'm Pennsylva-
min.

The result of the Ohio election was not suf-
fciently decisive one way or the other to inspire
either of the political parties with an unhes.-
tating confidence Of success in those of the No
vember states which take their cue from the
decision OF their neighbOr, the Buckeye state.
In Pennsylvania both parties claim they Will
make gains in the Congressional delegation. OF
the % districts the republicans now control Il
and the democrats 10. Two districts now rep
resented by democrats will, it is claimed, be
carried by the republicans. These are the thir-
teenth and the eighteenth. In the former the
democratic majority in 1876 was 81. The latter
gave Representative Stenger a majority of 169
two years ago. but at the same time gave the
republican presidential ticket a majority OF 60).
The democrats hope to defeat Representative
Harry White in the 18th district, and Represent
tatiye Campbell in the 18th. The majority Of
the latter in 1916 was 500. The nationals expect
to elect David Kirk In the 22d district over Rep
resentatiye Russell Errett, republican. besides
doing their share to send Hendrick b. Wright
back 10 Washington. AS some estimates place
as many as ten of the twenty-seven districts
in doubt it is evident that amid all the claims
much uncertainty as to the result prevails
There Is no reason, however, to believe that the
republicans will not control the delegation. The
only point to be determined in the election of
the legislature which will choose successor to
Don Cameron is whether the republicans Will
have majority over the combined democratic
and national vote, making the return of Don
Cameron certain, or whether the nationals win
hold the balance of power. Even in the latter
case Senator Cameron may be reelected. AS
twenty-one out of the twenty-four holding
over state senators are republicans, and the APP
portiOnment OF the state is also favorable to the
latter party. they enter the struggle under
favorable auspices.

A curious case was recently decided by a
Chicago court. A gentleman took out policy
in an insurance company, payable at his death
to his heirs. But the company went into bank
ruptcy and the gentleman asked that the pro
rata be paid to him. inasmuch as he, being
living, had no heirs in the legal sense. The
judge said that the law indicated that the par
ties for whom the policy was drawn should
have the benefit. But this was an exceptional
case, because the company had gone into bank
ruptcy, and, as the plaintiff was still alive, he
has no heirs TO whom the claim could be assigned.
so that the money held by the receiver to pay
the claim must lie idle or go to the assured He
thought that, as matter OF equity, the assured
should have the benefit, but he stated that he
would not allow his decision to be used as a
precedent.

PettengilFs Newspaper Directory for
1928.

PettengillS Newspaper Directory for 1878 is not
a mere agglomerative list ofneWspaperS thrown
into shape according to the ordinary alphabet
cal process /: it is what it sets out to be-a Di-
rectory-an Advertisers Handbook. It is the
most complete book of the kind ever published.
1t Is full of arrangements looking to the accom-
mediation of all kinds of business men who de-
sire to reach the public through newspapers.
Even the most general list forms careful selec-
ton OF papers, according to natural geograpI-
ical division. The advertiser is enabled to make
his own selections from the New England Sec
ton, the Middle Section, the Western Section,
the Pacific Section. the Southern Section, OF
from British America. The same list is also
furnished bycounties. Beyond this, if he wishes
to select classes of papers, here is presented for
his use list of all the daily papers another of
all the weekly and monthly papers with circula-
tion over 5000 each another of Religious week.
lies; and still another of Agricultural and Hor
ticultural papers. If assistance is needed to
better this, the Agency is of course, ready to
| supply the want by personal counsel and con-
slant attention. The good advice to advertisers,
which covers many pages of the book, is worth
more than ten times the price of the work In
short, this Newspaper Directory is the spokes-
man for no less than 8,6I5 papers, in all parts of
the country. The workmanship expressed by
| it's paper, press work, illustrations and binding
is OF tone worthy of a book compiled upon
such thoroughly scientific principles.
| The Directory is embelished with faithful
portraits of S. M Pettengill, the publisher Geo.
W. childs, Hon Bayard Taylor, Brett Harte,
the late James Gordon Bennett, and the late
Samuel Bowles
