THE AOUEOUS DILEMMA.

1t has been the practice in all the pro-
hibition states for the Republicans to
put that dogma into their platforms
regularly. This has been specially the
case in the Dakotas, Iowa, Kansas and
Maine. In the original restrictive state
this has been done for generation, and
it is meaningless matter of r0te, as
the liquor dealers are not made serious
trouble while they vote the Republican
ticket. The situation in Iowa is famil-
lar. Now, in Kansas the Republicans
are in qaandary. AS tits presidential
year, they want to leave prohibition
out of the platform. The leading party
papers are urging that policy. They want
TO be in line with the national organi-
cation and carry the state for HAIR
RIsoN, Another element is far more
concerned to control the state and local
affairs, and this is believed to demand
the Endorsement Of prohibition. These
people, who live to compel others to be
good in their way, will fly the track if
the regular Endorsement is not had.
They are uncompromising, and run the
line to Washington. This controyer sy
will be of service in pulling the state
out of the Republican line next fall.
In the Dakotas the Prohibition Repub-
IicanS are on their mettle constantly,
and suspicious of any movement of the
other fellows. They are willing
for compromise, provided they
are given the whole of the tur-
key. The fellows who want
new vote on the constitutional amend
ment are admoniShed to stop their talk
ing. They may think and kick little,
but not try to disturb the law or the
constitution. The prohibitionists have
logic on their side when they reply to
allegations that the system is failure;
that it would not be if no one opposed,
and they will keep on the line of prin-
ciple till all come to them. AS this will
not happen for a good while. the ques-
ton will grow in difficulty for the
party, and it is not apparent just now
whether it is safest to hang on or let go.
Trouble looms up in either case.

the fraileSt, but clear aud alert of mind,
capable Of great industry and keenly
interested ip the worlds passing prob
lens. In the midst of an atmosphere of
traditions and precedent, enveloped by
memories OF the past and the prestige
of long established order and methods
Of thought, he stands forth with start
ling dstinctness as sympathizer an
advocate OF modern progress, and. as
the archbishop expresses it, "of all that
tends to the betterment OF the present

wider than the domain Of any monarch.
and the whole worlds probe ms are his

FUNSTON'S FROTH.

state to have corner on wind.-Cni-

When Mr.. Funston gets back to his
prohibition district he can explain that
his cold tea is the Chinese, not the YER
mont article popalarized in Washington
by Mr.. EdmundS.-St. Louis Republic.
Tne Funston episode carries several
morals. The first is that Funston ought
to be retired from public life at the end
of his present term. He has behaved in
manner at once too puerile and too
vulgar to be tolerated by self-reSpect-
ing constituency.-New York World.

THE NEW JERSEY LAW.

Some mention has been made of the
new road laws OF New Jersey as per
haps the best extant. and embodying
features worthy of consideration in
other sections. In the next decade the
construction of good common reads is
likely to engage public attention as
much as the building of railroads has
for generation past. The sections
that fail to catch on in good time Will
suffer. The New Jersey measure is not
radical and imperative like those of old
world countries, but it is a good start in
the right direction. The county board
provides the machinery that insures
expert supervision and substantial
wo k. On petition OF two-thirds of
the real estate owners fronting
on public road, stating their willing
ness to meet one-tenth of the cost of a
macadamized road not less than mile
neXtent, the county board is com PEELED
to provide for Its construction. The
maximum tax for road building is to be
one-half of per cent OF the taxable
property of the county. The state is to
meet one third of the cost of the roads,
not, however, to exceed $4,000 for a
county in any year. 1t is believed that
good roads will in few years become
the rule i'll that state without onerous
expense to any. The communities that
have the solid, smooth ways will be
the most sought and prosperous. But
it is left with the property owners to
take the initiative.
