Road OF Roadsl

A Mayor who goes out OF Office proposing
such sound and noble scheme OF munich
pal improvement rs that offered FOR con-
sideration yesterday by Mayor GRANT
seems to be taking Office rather than leav-
ing 1t. The grent road. OF which description
will be found in other columns. should be
built. and when completed it will always be
associated with the name Of HUGH GRANT.
1t would far surpass in magniflcence the
sum OF money needed to make 1t. although
that mounts into the millions. 1t will be
30 beautiful in itself, and so desirable fea-
ture in tho cty's plan, that 1t will justify
itself before an inquiry into the cost. Great
as that is estimated to be. We believe that
this new boulevard would be public In
vestment OF indubitablc value.
New Yorks peculiar shape requires pecu-
liarly deliberative and intelligent examina-
ton Of any proposed improvements. But
this plan for boulevard leading from the
Harlem River to Mosholu Parkway exhibits
the highest ability for such task.
A city possessing such a driveway would
be an uncommon!y agreeable place to live
in. The moment it was determined upon
the region north Of the Harlem would bloom
like magic with taxpnying residences suffi-
cient to make its cost seem like q pocket
piece.
Commissioner HEINTz OF the trans-Har-
lem portion OF tho town has been a CO.
laborer with Mayor GRANT in designing and
locating this grand central road for pleasure
driving, running through the district where
it is reasonably possible to obtain such a
thing. SO that Mr.. HE1NTz, il this scheme
should be approved will have more active
part in its realization than Mayor GRANT.
From the higher portions OF New York the
surrounding country Is always charming to
look at. No city is more beautiful or inter-
esting in its environments. The scenes
visible at every point OF vantage are OK
tremoly picturesque. Tho new boulevard
would give q continuous sight OF New
York's beauties. 1t would be drive Of ex-
traordinary delightfulness and practical
convenience. and would offer the peculiar
attractiveness arising from the sense that
ono may drive for miles without encounter
ing an interruption in tho road or change
in its character. But how the now poor
roadless trotters' feet will fly

The great jewish immigration OF recent
years has brought about Importance changes.
both social and religious. in tho population
OF that race IN this country. and in this city
more particularly.
The Jews have been coming hither since
the early colonial days. but until this new
flood Of immigration began to pour in they
came very gradually. Until ten or If
teen years ago their numbers were few as
compared with the immigrants Of other
races. For that reason they were easily
assmllated. and the American Jew became
a distinct type. with differences from his
brethren abroad that were radical. more
especially when he was compared with
the Jews OF those foreign communl-
ties OF the race which clung most
stubbornly to the pecullarities OF the
peculiar people. II not his character. at
least his habits. customs and views were
modified by the surrounding conditions.
and they took on a new color. Many Of
these Jews, as they advanced in prosperity.
ceased to DO Jews in religion, They became
materialists and agnostics. Indifferent to
all religion They obeyed neither their own
ancient law nor any other religious rule.
The mass OF the American Jews. moreover.
tended to the relaxation Of the severity Of
their views to a greater or less extent.
though they still persisted in their relig-
ious faith and allegiance.
Thus there grew up an American Jewish
party. which naturally became more and
more progressive as time passed by. until
at last its more radical members tolerated
the suggestion OF innovations that outrage
the deepest convictions OF the bulk OF the
race in tho world. and at the present mo-
ment in this country also
The sudden flood Of Jewish immigration
which began to pour in few years ago
has made the new arrivals greater In num-
bers than the whole body OF the race who
were already settled here at the time Of
their appearance. They are also the strict
est Of Jews. holding with undiminished te-
nacity to tho race prejudlces and religious
exclusiveness which distinguished their an
cestors Of the middle ages. They are Jews
from Russia and Poland and from south

A really unique distinction was acquired
on Friday by Police Commissioner SHEEHAN
in promoting Sergeant PICKETT to Captaincy.
Tho Thirteenth district leader overturned a
famous department tradition In giving the
shield OF office to a policeman whose Christian
name Is PATR1cK. In all tho years that the
present department has been In existence thai
good old-time cognOmen has never appeared
in the list fthe precinct commanders. and in
honorlng his candidate Mr.. SHEEHAN is en-

Sergeant. who cot his promotion as q Christ

A NATIONAL ISSUE.

Last night the national Democracy sent
some OF its lights 10 Pawtucket, and the
TRIBUNE may thankfully and safely say
that the darkpCss was dispelled from
many wavering and doubling minds by
the eloqucncc which they heard. This
campaign is one Of national, not OF State
ar local importance. The speakers were
Democrats and their doctrines made the
party namo a synonym of nobility. No
workingman could leave Music Hall last
evening and feel ashamed either OF his
toll or doubt that the Democrats, not only
of Rhode Island, bat of the United States
were his friends and natural allies
The battle cry was that tho increase OF
tariff was an increase of tax and therefore
burden upon all working men. These
must pay all the taxes; for wealth itself,
whether represented in n landlord, rnil-
road or manufacturer receives it's income
from the product OF the faithful and hon.
est men whom il employees. Such is the
Democratic doctrine as announced last
night by Bryan of Nebraska, Scott of Ill.
ipois, O'Neill of Massachusetts, and that
valiant and brave supporter of Democ-
racy, Governor Campbell of Ohio
There were workingmon present who
ielt and understood the honesty OF tho
Democratic party on this tariff question
and are convinced that higher price for
goods, without a corresponding increase
Of wages, Is not a benefit but dotriment,
and il will take many years OF argument
from that great criminal lawyer, Barbour
of Connecticut, who has defended many

platform of the guilty Republican party,

Iron County register. [volume] (Ironton, Iron County, Mo.) 1867-1965, 1892-12-29

A state road convention will be held
at Sedaila the latter part of next month.
The object of the meeting is for the
purpose of devising means of securing
better roads. The deliberations of the
convention will likely take the form of
suggestions to the general assembly, for
without legislation nothing can be ac-
complished. There will be no more
important question before the legislat-
ure than the subject of lettering the
condition of the public highways. The
danger appears to be in multiplicity
of ideas which will result in no import
ant change. Naturally, many aspiring
statesmen would like to have their
name attached to a good road law, but
just now it is more important to the
state to secure the desired improve
ments than to assist the ambition of
some rising statesman.
Every county in the state should
send representatives to the Sedalia
meeting because it's deliberations will
have much to do with the course pur-
sued by the legislature. If the road
laws are not changed at the approach
ing session then nothing can be accom-
plished before the winter of 1895.
Public sentiment is undoubtedly in
favor of immediate relief, and if it takes
the legislature five months to perfect a
law the time will be we'll spent. We
believe that the revenue to inaugurate
great internal system of improving
the public highways can be raised
without imposing any great hardships
upon the taxpayers. Roads cannot be
constructed for nothing, it is true, and
the people do not expect as much, but
there are many ways in which the rev.
enue of the state can be utilized and
numerous means can be adopted for
practicing economy. At the proper
time we will call attention to this
feature OF the case.
The first thing for the legislature to
do is to repeal all existing road laws
and enact an entire new chapter. Then
it must provide some means for begin
ming and carrying on Improvements
until the constitution can be amended.
1t will require some time to put such a
great system under way, as everything
will be more or less of an experimental
nature at the start. This is a job that
the legislature cannot accomplish in a
day or a week, or even a month, and
unless the members are willing to con-
cede something to each other the leg
islature may adjourn without having
accomplished any desirable change
