New York Tribune: The praeti-
cal advantages of good roads are
strikingly set forth by writer in
Lipptncott's Magazine, in the vicin-
ity of Moorestown, in New Jersey,
being selected as an illustration.
This is in Burlington county, ten
miles from Philadelphia. Radiating
from Moorestown are 81 miles of
good macadamized roads, built by
an issue of town bonds and by
means of the State Aid law of 1891.
Before these roads were constructed
real estate in the neighborhood of
Moorestown was absolutely dead;
since they were built it is much in
request, and near the town almost
city prices have been paid for land.
The contrast in thisrespect between
Moorestown and other town poss-
essing equal advantages is great.
Furthermore, instead of four horse
wagons built to carry 5OS bushel
baskets, farmers thereabout now
use two-horse wagons, carrying 125
baskets of the same size. Argu-
ments of this kind cannot fail to
make an impression on the minds
of people in all farming communi-
ties; just the same results as at
Moorestown might not follow every
where, but something approxima-
ting to them surely would, if good
roads were provoked. The long
and short of the matter is that good
roads pay. This is now a matter of
absolute demonstration.

OuestionabIe Methods.

When the Republicans found they
had lost the Mayor but could have
six councilmen, they boosted that
they had another card to play which
would win the trick; they'd refuse
to allow any of their men to qnalify
as members of council and thus
prevent a quorum, as six Democrats
could do nothing without the pres
ence of at least one Republican,
seven members being a quorum.
They showed their hand little
too soon. That kind of a hand
would not only have defeated
the ends of justice, but left us with
out a council until the next election.
The whole machinery of city gov
eminent would have been blocked
1t was then the Democrats felt that
the end justified the means, and
Selling the opportunity offered by
the Republicans themselves, they
declared the election held at the
first precinct illegal, which action
only was necessary to entitle two
additional Democrats in the First
ward to certificates of election, thus
securing a safe, certain working
majority in council, and the city s
business will now proceed uninter-
ruptedly.-Hunting,on Advertiser.
We are not one of those Demo
Gratis who believe in such action as
detailed in the above article. Ii
may have been all honest and fair
as regards the Mayor, but when it
comes to throwing out precincts to
get little temporary power, we
can't see the justice in perpetrating
such a wrong.

citation meeting, is open to the gen.
eral public. Tickets may be pro
cured going one route and return
ing by another if desired. Cheap

expense. The Baltimore & Ohio

sionists handsome equipment, fast
trains and sure connections.

Each time war is on between
any two nations anywhere the ques-
tion comes up anew whether mer.
chants of the United States may
sell arms and ammunition to those
nations. They certainly may. Arms
and ammunitions are a part of the
cargoes of lawful commerce. United
States law forbids the enlisting OF
men in this country as soldiers to
fight any nation with which we are
at peace. 1t is forbidden therefore
to enlist soldiers to help the Cuban
rebellion. All the same, numbers
of Americans have, it is believed
gone over to help the Cuban patriots
individually and on their own hook.
Again, it is unlawful for an expedi-
ton or ship to be used for fighting
against a friendly nation to be fitted
out within the territory of the
United States. Those are the only
law and treaty restrictions. There
is one danger, however, to which all
merchants shipping goods to for
eign country in a state of war are
liable. When England shipped
outline, powder, blankets, textile
fabrics, guns or anything else to the
south during our war, the shippers
ran the risk of their goods being
seizedand confscated by Z ncle Sam s
blockaders, who were around the
southern coast looking out for them.
In the same. manner, if American
merchants send arms and ammuni-
ton to Cuba, they must take the
risk of attack from Spanish block
aders. They could get no redress
through the United States govern.
ment if they lost their property;
neither could the American citizen
who enlisted among the Cuban
rebels claim protection from his
home government.

Horses Knoeked ami.


We have published facts and
figures several times to show what
causes the low prices of horses and
mules and still there are ignorant
Republicans in this section who
keep on blaming the Democratic ad
ministration for it. Here is a short
article from the Wheeling Intelli
gencer, the leading Republican pa,
per in this State, that we desire to
call special attention to:
KNOCKING OUT THE HORSES.
1t is estimated that electric mo
tive power has displaced 100000
horses, an estimate which is not be-
lieved to come up to the full dis
placement of horse flesh. On this
basis, however, the market for corn
and oats is reduced by 100000 bush
els per day, aggregating the enor-
nous amount of 18O, 10000 bushels
per annum. The grain required
transportation, and the loss to the
railroads is 100000 carloads.
The displacement goes on and it
is hard to tell where it will stop.
The economic aspect of the case is
very interesting. Presently the da-
ia for a careful study will be even
more abundant, for all this is quite
new.
