prSUOp pOTTEES CATHEDRAL IDEA.

What Bishop Potter had TO say in The Trib-
mo an Tuesday about the plan and scope Of the
propo,ed Episcopal cathedral in this city is in
tcrcsting and suggestive few sundays as"
no attended service in 81. Pauls, London. There
were eight thousand people present, the capp!
in his fusian Jacket the porter and the railroad
man rubbing elbows with the arist0cracy OF
Great Britain. That" said the Bishop, rs es-
..sentially the cathedral idea. That is why we
| .hovc decided 10 set aside AZ an endowment
fund onchalf Of all the money we receive 1or

.cndowmcnt fund and The cathedral VIII rise

idea Is 10 have The finances in such condition
that there will never be- any such thing as pew

Now we are far from wishing to combat or
criticisc this idea II the Bishops. ON the con
trary II will he. in opinion great thing
for this democratic aud cosmopolitan metropolis
To have such grand temple as he hopes to see
built. In which the rich and the poor may
worship together as the common children ~ a
common Father But the Thought will occur to
many pcoplc-and we mention II merely by way
Of record and not as an argrment-if II Is de-
s,rable TO have n cathedral for the free use of
the rich and the poor why Is II not also de-
sirable 10 have all churches similarly free! In
other words why should not all churches be
endowed? For do not suppose that in the

But while the arguments in favor OF endowed
churches are theoretically unanswerlble, those
who are best acquainted with them say that.
practically there are serious objections TO themi

COOD ROADS IN NEW-JERSEY.

New Jersey roads bid fair TO become as noted
es Now-Jerscv mud has been. and with ms ample,
,houvh far different. reason New,Jersey mud
has long been famous for its redncss, its depth.
its sickness and it's general dcpravity. And
there was n time when mud and roads were al
most interchangeable terms, save when dust
took the place Of mud. Those conditions have
now vanished or are vanishing. The recently
constructed roads are as good rs the old ones
were bad and that Is saying great deal Only
a few wears ago the work Of road improvement
was begun in one or two dcnsely populated co'ln-

have taken II mp with characteristic intelligehc"
and zeal County after county has fallen INTO

Some misapprehension appears TO have arisen
In reference TO the fund that Is being raised by
the wheelmen OF Brooklyn for the completion OF
the bicycle pathway which the Park Commits
soner Is constructing on the Ocean Parkway.
for the Park Commissioner 20 use for this pur-
pose This is sufficient to grade the pathway
and to finish II in fairly good condition. Many
Of the Interested wheemen. however, want the
pathway e. be topped with the best gravel to be
had on learning that the Park Commissioner
would be unable to furnish this. they proposed to
raise the necessary amount 10 provide 1t among
the bicycle riders OF Brooklyn, the Commissioner
agreeing TO put the gravel in place and keep the
path In proper order. The proposition came
from the wheelmen and not from the Commits
sioner In no sense can II be said that he asked
for the money which the wheelmen are con-
trbuting As there are 1000 more riders In
the city only a small amount from each will be
required to complete for their common use the
finest bicycle pathway anywhere to be found.
We notice that some riders object 10 the con-
struction Of the path on the ground that their
rights OF the main roadway OF the Boulevard
may be restricted In consequence. There need
be no fear on that score. No privileges will be
diminished by the construction OF the pathway.
but when It is finished the wheelmen will have
for their exclusive use path Ave miles long and
fourteen or fifteen feet wide. such as no other
city has yet provided. More than half the sum
needed TO supply the gravel has been con-
tributed. The rest ought to come in quickly.
