PRINCETON FIRE DEPT.
A New Hook and Ladder Truck
Recently Received for
the COmDany.

Recently Received for
the Company.
The fremen are elated over the
recent acquisition Of a splendidly
equipped hook and ladder truck.
It a 20 foot truck, on which are
SIX ladders singles and two
extensions affording facilities for
mounting the highest buildings.
In the practice work, the CONNER
cial Hotel and the Carew block
have been scaled, and that in quick
order, considering the apparatus
which works with considerable
friction while new. There are
now three companies in the de-
partment, known as companies
one, two and three, one and two
handling the chemicals, and three
having control of the new truck.
Regular meetings are held monthly
with specials for Monday evening
of each week. J. R. Zimmerman
is chief, E. X. Evens, assistant
chief, H. E. Cravens, secretary
and E.. j. Carmody, treasurer.
Ten men make full complement
for the new truck, while about the
same number is needed on each of
the engines, making about thirty
men to man fully, the three. Others
are yet wanted to fill out the quota,
and the young men of the village
who have the time to spare con
veniently, should fill up the ranks
and encourage the continuance OF
the work so we'll started.

Game Laws.

Quite a splurge was made over
the game and fish protection laws,
and the provisions made for their
enforcement. With all the rigor
Of the present law, and the sup
posed care in the selection of COM
petent men to enforce the laws,
the exchanges are filled with as
sertions that the laws are openly
violated every day in the week.
The impression prevails in the
country that the laws were en-
acted for the benefit of the sport
ing fraternity in the cities, and
from this belief, arises a DISPOSE
ton to take fish and slaughter
game irrespective of legislative en-
actments. A review of the law
showing the closed season, should
dispel this wrong idea. It is en-
acted and put on our statute books
to- protect both game and fish,
when propagating and rearing
their young, and not as class legis-
lation, in favor of the city chaps.
The city sportsmen kill very
small part of the game that is an
nually slaughtered. For a few
days at most, they leave the desk
to 60 into a region with which
they are perhaps totally unac-
quainted, place themselves in the
hands of the local nimrods, and en-
joy their sport as guests of their
country cousins. In general,
their slaughter is small one, and
they often return to the city sup
piled with game brought down by
the local sport. The kickers, and
violators of the laws, usually fol-
low the destruction of the birds
from or before the time laid down,
almost daily, until cold weather
closes the deal. It is fair, Just,
upright law, intended for the pro-
lection of the game only, and not
one aimed at the interests of one
for the detriment of the other. It
is to be hoped the wardens will
bestir themselves and prevent the
regular complaints against them.

GOOD ROADS.
States are Falling into Line and
Public Highways Much
Improved.

For several years past, there
has been an almost constant agita-
ton of the subject of good roads
through all parts of the United
States. The constant hammering
by the press, both city and coun-
try, has had it's effect, and over
twenty states have passed laws en-
couraging the movement. Con-
gress has helped to further the
measure by the appropriation
made two years ago, to meet the
expenses of investigating the con-
dition of roads throughout the
country and the procurement of
information to assist the people in
improving the thoroughfares of
country travel. The Massachu-
sets plan is good one, and could
we'll be adopted and followed else
where. Wherever traffic is con-
siderable, the hardened surface is
broadened, and on cross roads, it
is narrow, only wide enough for a
team with turning-out places at
convenient distances apart. The
matter of sidewalks is now being
considered in the townships, to be
built and handled by the town
authorities, while the keeping of
the roads in good shape is the
work of the State. The planting
of trees along the highways has
been carefully considered. The
American elm has been adopted
as one having most rapid growth,
though bothered some with insects.
In parts of Europe, fruit trees
such as the cherry are planted
along the roads. The yield of the
fruit from the wayside trees
usually belongs to the land owners,
but in some cases to the COM
munity who are we'll protected by
law. To make local application
of the matter, what could be done
that would result in greater bene-
fit to Princeton and its immediate
surroundings than a frst-class
system of roads leading from this
point as a center, out in every
direction to the agricultural wealth
that finds egress through this mar
ket? While the means of enter
ing into an elaborate preparation
of the roads for travel as in Mas
sachusetts, can not be expected,
advantages as they present them
selves, can be accepted, and
united efforts on the part of the
village and towns can make a vast
improvements over the present
condition. Until the State sees fit
to control the roads as in Massa-
chusetts, straw can be put on the
sandy roads, which, beaten down,
forms hard road bed, and by fol-
lowing the matter up, year after
year, the sand would be thing of
the past, and a peat road in its
stead that would last many years,
would be the result. It is cheap
and ought to be done every year,
as soon as practicable, at least be-
fore the heavy influx of teams be-
gins in September.

No one ever heard him without being
convinced of his sincerity. Those who
profess to dissent from his concIus-
ions, or deny the force of his argu-

not doubt his abiding belief in all he
says. Directness of speech, absence of
ambiguity, unaSsailable logic, I'M

his characteristics as a speaker. He

his point and object, and refuses to
wander into the bypaths of extran-

him real significance.
Archbishop Ireland is public-spirit-
ed in the highest degree, and takes
great interest in the municipal prog
ress of st. Paul. He obtained from
the city council the first charter
granting the right to build and MAIN
tain an electric street car line in st.
Paul, caused the same to be opened
and operated, and so demonstrated
the advantages of that system of
street travel that it was at once
adopted throughout the city. He has
been member of the state historical

The program for the national ir-
rigation congress, which meets in
Albuquerque in September, indicates an
unusually able series of papers and ad-
dresses. The address of welcome to the

The attention of prohibitionists and
country and city authorities is called to
the fact that they now have a very
simple, effective and practical way OF en-.
forcing sobriety and temperance. Under
the new law any person found in an in.
toxicated condition is liable to arrest
and fine of from SIS to S25, which fine
may be worked out at 81 per diem until
paid. This is one Of the most practical
laws ever placed on our statute books.
Make drunkenness unpopular and a dis
grace in the eyes Of society-arrest those
who haven't serse enough to keep sober
and the community will soon rid itself
of a lot of FOUNDERS and "dead game
sports," as many Of those misguided,
beardless, hayward youths size them
selves up to be. Fine the man who gets
drunk; arrest the man or youth who.
under the influence of liquor, becomes
bolsterous, profane and filthy. A drunken
man being devoid Of sense, it becomes

The Sunday Fargo Argus contains an
elegant editorial on "Cheerfulness," and
for the purpose of comparison between
wealth and genius, the writer uses the
following: Sand yet the world has pro-
duced thousands of millionaires and
common rich men, and only one Shake
spear" If history records the facts
a<ight Shakespear never lost an oppor-
tunity to accumulate wealth and so
great was his passion in that direction

with his memory. The writings of Shake.

and teach noble lessons, and it is a pity
the world has been deprived of the prlvi-
lege of seeing them in the original. If,
however, they we're not written in better
hand than the writing extant and known
to be his they would not be easily
deciphered. The fact that his works
were not published for seven years after
his death, SO far separates the mar from
his writings as to justify all reference
being made to 'the Works Of Shake

MORE TRUTH THAN POETRY,

We all know by this time that the
fight on Senator Quay in Pennsylvania
is the fight of virtue against corruption.
Quay is a bad man. He is not a re-
former, says the Washington Post. He
believes in practical politics, in organiza-
ton, in rewarding the men who do the
party work, and ignoring the Mug
wumps who look at life through the
p%lateglass windows of clubs, and are too
elegant to perform the duties of citizen
ship. OF course that makes Quay a bad
man, and naturally we find arrayed
against him such righteous and implac-
able persons as Brother John Wanna
maker and Hon. Dave Martin of Phila-
delphia, to say nothing of Bombastes
Furioso Gilkeson, who is now on exhibit
ton at the very top of the tree.
To be sure We all know, that in times
past all these pious Christian gentlemen
have been intimate with Quay. and more
than proud to serve him. It was Quny
who lifted Wanamaker over his bargain
counter, shook him free of the tin pans
and muslin underwear which he peddled
SO industriously, and stood him up in
national public life. Dave Martin has
always. until quite recently, been Quay's
humble and jealous henchman, and as
for Gilkeson, why, Quay just took him
by the ears like a rabbit and played with
him till he got sleek and SASSY" But
they are all good now. The have awak-
ened to the turpitude of Quay, and they
vie with each other in denouncing and
condemning him. Such a spectacle of
goodness has rarely been witnessed in
this or any other land. John Wana.
maker rolls up his virtuous eyes and the
dew of sanctity drops from him like
a rain, as he contemplates the regenera.
tion of Dave Martin and he awakening
Of Gilkeson. He marks down summer
drawers to so cents, and throws in the
Paris thoughts for lagniappe. Such is
his ecstacy and his holiness.
We do not wonder at this revolt
against Senator Quay, or at the treach.
cry and meanness of those who lead it.
The case is simply n of history re.
peating itself. What does astound us,
though, is that in this age and country
Wanamaker, Dave Martin and little
Gilkeson can find a corporal's guard OF
citizens to listen to them respectfully
and to accept them as champions of the
higher life in politics. That fills us with
q special wonder.

employed assistants to and from the
capitol, and to carry the mail and ex-
press packages. Mr.. J. White and Mr..

tween the capitol and down town, sven

TWO ST.

Two of the most prominent living
statesmen in the world-Bismarck and
Gladstone-have each retired to the
quiet of private life, and will live here
after only in the history Of the past. the
love of their countrymen and the ad-
miration of the world. Bismarck's re-
tirement dates from his displacement as
chancellor, and Gladstone has just an
nounced his voluntary retirement in a
letter worthy of the writer. He says:
"In regard to public affairs many things
are disputable, some belong to history, and
have passed out Of the region of conten-
ton. 1t is beyond question that the CEN
fury now expiring has exhibited since the
close of its first quarter a period of III
exampled activity, the changes of which,
taken in the mass, have been in the direc-
ton of true and beneficial progress. An
overwhelming proportion OF the reforms
within this period have been effected by
the direct action of the liberal party, and
by the direct action of such statesmen as
Feel and Canning, who were ever ready to
meet odium or to forfeit power for the
public good. In all OF the fifteen parlia-
ments in which l have served, the people
of Scotland have decisiyely expressed their
convictions in favor of this wise and tenn
perate policy. and l trust that the electors
of Midlothian will continue to lead the
people of Scotland in the future as they
have in the past"
Like two giant oaks, the "Man of
Iron and Blood" and England's "Grand
Old Man." stand out today in bold re-
lief, towering so much above those who
occupy the places they have ~relinquished
as to make them more conspicuous even
in retirement. The great oak Of the
forest not only towers aloft, but also
sends it's roots deep into mother earth,
and is thus enabled to withstand, I'M
harmed, the wintry blasts that destroy
less vigorous growths. The foundations
on which these two great men have
reared such magnificent superstructures
being no less with the one than the
German empire, and with the other the
acknowledgements of the English peas
antry and the Inauguration of reforms
in the governments of Ireland and Scot
land that has made his name dear to
every lover of those countries; were laid
SO deep as to be as permanent as the
governments themselves.
The fires of ambition have been ex-
tinguished and they can now sit down
in contentment, awaiting the appearance
of the reaper. And when he comes may
he perform his mission with as little
pain as possible. The world will mourn
when that day comes.

sired to see such a course pursued by his
friends we're doomed to disappointment,
and those who felt that such a course
would be prejudicial to the interests of
the league were gratifed to find an en-
tire absence of such a program. There
was another idea prevalent mon a
large number of the delegates upon their
arrival at Cleveland, which was that a
quiet war was being waged between the
Mckinley and Foraker forces for SUI
premacy. Observation soon satisfied all
present that there was no division of
sentiment among the people of Ohio.
They are for Mckinley for president and
Foraker for senator almost to a man.
While no effort was made to boom any
candidate, each of the known aepirants
had representatives upon the ground,
and considerable talk was had among
the delegates as to availability. The
states of Ohio, Illinois, Kansas, Ne.
braska, Arkansas, and a large portion of
the southern states seemed to be favor
able to, Mckinley. New York, Maine,
Iowa and Pennsylvania had ~"favorite
sons" It was, however, the ]concensus
of opinion that Mckinley was the most
prominent presidential candidate at this
time.

AS TEE time for the opening of the
Atlanta exposition approaches the more
its Importance seem to impress itself
upon the people of the United States.
The management is wide awake, and the
southern people are determined that
their wonderful resources shall be prop
erly exhibited to the world. Far off
California will spend $4,000 in the ex-
hibit, and Massachusetts, Pennsylvania,
Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, and nearly
every other northern state have made
arrangements to be properly represented,
in some instances the appropriation
being as large as that made for the Chi
cago exposition. In the matter Of rates
the railroads promise to be liberal. Sew
eral days ago Commissioner Finley of
the Southern Railway and Steamship
association announced exposition rates
for all lines between the Ohio the Poto.
mac and the Gulf, and between the At
lantic and Mississippi river. The basis
is approximately one cent a mile, slightly
more than one. half the basis named for
the worlds fair by the passenger aeso-
citation which met at Chicago in 1893.
Fol example, the round-trip rate from
Atlanta to Chicago was 1872. The round
trip rate from Chicago to Atlanta will
be about $780,; from Washington about
$14.3O; from Cincinnati, $685.; from
Nashville about $3.50, and other points
in proportion. This rate is entirely sat-
%isfactory to the exposition company, and
it will be maintained to the end. While
rates have not been named for points
beyond the Ohio, Potomac and Missis.
sippi rivers, it is believed that railroads
beyond those lines will use the same
basis.
