a Tribute to TennysOn.

The beautiful pail sent by the Kes-
wick School of Art for Lord Tennyson's
coffin was a two days labor of love by
five workers, including Mrs. Rawusby,
the wears wife and head of the school,
the designer of the pail, her husband
having been the son of one of Jenny
sons Oldest friends, by whom and from
whose house Tennyson was married.
The whole ground of handwoven, I'M
bleached Ruskin linen was covered with
trails of English wild roses, worked in
natural c%olors, emblematical of the
poets love of his own England, while
the blossoms and binds, forty-two in
number, symbolized the years of his
laureateship. Upon a scroll in the center
were embroidered in gold thread, shaded
with a deep brown silk, the last four
lines of the poem, Crossing the Bar"
Above this, in shades of green, was
worked a laurel wreath, bearing berries,
and below a baron's pail coronet and the
initials "a. T." in gold. The pail was

THE OUTLOOK FOR NATIONAL AID.
Public Opinion Setting Toward the Ideas
of Clay and Calhoun.

Public Opinion Setting Toward the Ideas
of Clay and Calhoun.
General Roy Stone writes as follow VS.
to the New York Tribune:
The outlook for national action in
favor of road improvement is steadily
Frightening. The bill for a national
highway commission-strenuously advo-
Gated by The Tribune-was passed by
the senate and favorably reported in the
house, where it will doubtless pass in
December. Many members of congress
are prepared to go much further in the
same direction. More than a score of
newspapers in all parts of the country
have pronounced in favor of national
aid, and it was the leading topic in one
of the state road conventions held last
week.
The boards of trade throughout the
country, numbering 1900, with a men,
bership of 500, 900 business men and
firms, are moving in the matter with a
leaning toward national action. The
League of American Wheelmen, with
nearly an equal number of supporters,
are untiring in their devotion to the good
work, and it was to their efforts almost
entirely that the rapid progress of the
commission bill was due.
Our people have learned through the
consular reports on foreign roads, which
have been eagerly sought for and V ide-
ly distributed, that all over the world
roads are a prime concern of ma
tional governments, and the current of
public opinion is setting strongly toward
a return to the ideas of Clay and Cal
houn and the legislation Of that era,
when it was declared the duty of the
government ''to bind the republic to-
gether with roads, and many national
roads were begun.
Much study is being given to the pos
sible methods of national aid, and the
idea of cooperation by local, state and
national authorities in a general system
of road construction is well received. a
leading member of congress-, who has
had a large experience in state and ma
tional finance, ~prOnounces this plan,
with its use of the joint credit to tighten
the burden, ga great discovery an
other says he shall make it a leading
feature in his campaign for reflections:
still another says that when its advan-
tages are known it will ''sweep the
country"
1t is proposed now to have something
like a continual congress on the subject
at the Worlds fair in connection with IL
road annex, containing every kind of
road exhibit and object lesson attain
able, and it is believed that by it's close
some definite scheme of improvement
will be developed that will command
the attention and action of the national
authorities.

They would make it possible for the
farmer to take advantage promptly of
the highest market, no matter at what
season of the year.
They would save him days and weeks
of time which he wastes every year
wallowing through the disgusting mire
of dirt roads.
They would reduce to a minimum the
veal and tear on wagons and carriages.
They would lessen the expense in
keeping horses in working order, and
the country to perform the farmers
work.
They would require less expense to
keep them in repair than do the dirt
roads.
They would make it easier for a team
to pull several tons over their smooth
surface than to drag a wagon through
the mud.
They would afford ready communica-
ton with the outside world at all times
of the year.
They would spare the farmer many
vexations and nervous strains.
They would practically shorten the
distance to the local market.
They would increase the demand for
country and suburban property.
They would be free from dirt in sum-
mer and mud and ruts in fall, winter
and spring.
They would bring every farming COM
munity into closer social relations.
They would make an evening drive a
pleasure instead of a vexation, as it is
now.
They would do away with the absurd
poll tax and supervisor system in places
where ii is still in use.
They would be. in short, the best pos
sible investment to the taxpayer if built
and cared for by the national govern
ment and paid for by a national tax.
All these they would do unless ex-
p%erience goes fornaught.-Rural World.

Property Values Enhanced.

In New Jersey in one county where
only forty miles Of good road has been
built, the value of land has advanced
enough to pay the whole expense with
ont increasing the rate of taxation. Ia
Ohio where the system has been adopted
the farms adjoining nave increased ten
dollars per acre in value. Such an in
crease from the same cause IN Ontario
county would raise the value of farms
%, 800, 600. In Indiana where macadam
roads have been built there is "a large
and increased demand for buggies and
wagons. In short, in every locality
where these improved roads have been
built there has been an increase in the
value of property.-Harper's.

A Policy for Womnn Voters.

One thing is clear. Woman suffrag-
lists should preserve toward political par
ties the same attitude which the parties
hold toward oma suffrage. If in any
state. as in Wyoming, one party espouses
suffrage with sufficient power to make
its action effective, that party should
then and there have our support. But,
as a rule it is the man, not the party,
whom we should favor or oppose. His
views IN woman suffrage and not his po-
litical affiliations are the important point.

could not. he relinquished his hold on Miss
Gray, who, with rare presence of mind,
turned on her back and fioated in the
