Dead Trees on Public Roads.

MIR. EDITOR: AS the road work
ing season is at hand, I would like
to make a suggestion. Ought we
not to have every dead tree cut
down within reach Of the road?
For at least two good reasons: 1st
the law requires it. End 1t is lust
like setting dead fall on the pub
nc highway to catch and kill. all
passing by. 1t would be very
wrong to kill human in this way,
or even a horse or OK.
If this will not touch the heart
OF the overseers and hands, there is
something in connection that will
touch the most tender cord, i. G.
we would have to pay the damage
thus inflicted if the County should
be sued. 1t is possible for 20 or
more persons to be killed within a
wear. From five to ten thousand
dollars damage per head would go
little below the bottom Of the
heart, and purse too. A jury gave
family $500 for a member kill
ed on the Air Line r. r., few
days ago Let us remember this.
Some Of the gullies and bridges
are almost as dangerous as the
trees. The scientist tells us if we
cut down the timber we will have
no rain, but I am willing to risk
falling few dead ones at least,
and a little brush or limbs cut
from over the roads.

UNCLE EzEK's WIsDoM.~-There
is much JOY in laugh, but there
is no luxury to the soul equal to a
tear free from sadness.
Men talk a great deal about ex-
ercising their judgements, when
it is their prejudices they exercise
the most.
Solitude would be good place
for man to go to, if he could leave
himself behind, and take only his
virtues along with him.

your rights. The world will give
You only what you reach for, and

THERE are likely to be two candi-
dates for the Board of Education in the
First Ward; +. W. Reeve, the present
incumbent, and WIN. Kyne, late a mem
Der of the Board from the Third Ward,
but now a resident Of the First. we
have not heard of any declaration from
Mr. Kyne that he will be a candidate,
but the opinion generally prevails that
he will be fully in the field when the
day of election comes around. Ihough
we have no particular objection to Mt.
Kyne as member of the Board, as a
choice between him and Mr.. Reeve we
have no hesitation in saying that the
latter should be the choice of that ward,
The ward is strongly Democratic, and
both the gentlemen named are Demo
Gratis, which throws politics entirely out
of the issue. Then it becomes ques-
ton of fitness and devotion % the inter
ests Of the public schools. We are
pleased TO say that Mr. Reeve has been
most devoted member of the Board,
one who takes a peculiar pride and
pleasure in looking after the schools un-
der his charge, His whole object seems
10 be to make model schools not only in
learning but in order. Such a faithful
member should not be defeated, andMr.
Kyne would be doing good service by
declining to be candidate against Mr.
Reeve, and at some other time come ou'
and defeat some other candidate who
would not make as good member a.

If THERE ARE to be any new school
houses erected this year, there Is no
place in the city where one is moro
needed than that sectionusually known
as the " Forty Acres" This is almost
young city in itself, and since the
commencement of the building Of the
Baltimore and Philadelphia Railroad II
has become partially isolated. There
is a large population here, and there
are children enough to fill a more
| than medium sized school house from
the start. The need of school house
| in this section has been increased by
the raising Of Scott street to a grad
with the railroad by an ordinance o
the City Council, which increases tn
danger of crossing the railroad to reacl
the only school anywhere in that neigh
borhood. The citizens Of that sectiol
should Immediately petition the Boar
of Education for new school house
and we have scarcely a doubt that
that body will examine that localit.

OUR FOREIGN trade in March does
not have a healthy appearance on it,
face. We sent abroad twelve millions
in gold and we are still shipping it a
the rate of three totive millions a week
In that month, for the first time during
thetiscal year, our exports exceeded thos'
of the corresponding month last year
while the exports have only been a
small in two months before, and tht
adverse balance Of more than five mil
lions is the natural result Of falling
off of more than twenty millions in oui
exports. Thi, is the largest compare
tive loss in many years. 1t Is hard tt
tell TO what this is is to be attributes
if not to d tampering with the tariff
This, however, is but a drop III the

pect if the Morrison-horiZo ntal tarit

paper and powder as well. Onr city is
