Our ingenious namesake in Nil
YANKEE does not believe in throwing
judicial elections into politics. 1t
believes i'm a non-partisan judiciary
in all the circuits of the state electing
judges next April, except the Wau-
kesha circuit. But no one must
think for a moment that the fact
that a republican happens to occupy
the bench in that democratic circuit
in any wise influences the Milwaukee
Journal in opposing him. That
would be partisanship and the Nil.
Journal is above such base influences
IN judicial matters.

The Providence Journal remarks:
 are said to have begun the construction
 of macadam highways as the result of
 a new law which enables them to se-
 cure $1,000 from the state and an equal amount from the county, provided they appropriate $1 900 in any given year for
 the betterment of their common roads.
 This latter appropriation, it should be
 understood, is in addition to the ordi-
 nary expenditures for road repairs, and
 must be used for hard stone highways in connection with the state and coun-
 ty appropriations, the completed thor
 oughfare to be subject to the approval
 of the state commissioners. There are one hundred and sixty seven towns in Connecticut, so that practically one- half of them have now actually made
 start toward better roads
 So far as the new law results in the awakening of public interest in road
 reform in towns which would not build satisfactory highways without state
 aid it is an excellent one. If com | munity secures a short stretch of
 smooth road it is very likely to desire
 more of the same kind.
 As a public educator, the Connecti-
 cut law is effective It is impossible that eighty towns should begin the business of macadamizing without con- tinNing it in greater or less degree. But majority of these towns, or many
 of them, will eventually realize that
 the most satisfactory way for them to build their good roads is to do it with
 out state aid. It is a very attractive
 scheme which provides three thousand dollars for highway improvement at 8
 cost of only one third that amount to the town, but it will not take the tax payers long to discover that they must
 pay the state and county, in the first place. the two thousand dollars receiv- ed from them. The individual towns make up the county and state, and fur nish the money accumulated in the state and county treasuries
 Naturally, the first to protest against the present law will be the larger towns. They pay in more money to the
 general fund, and vet can get no more back for better roads than the smallest ! hillside community. And this latter
 community may be expected to favor
 the law and enjoy it's privileges as long
 as possible. But whatever the inequal- ities of the statute, it's main purpose
 will be served if it results in an in-
 creased public interest in the construc-
 tion of good roads. When the towns make up their minds that the present arrangement is not satisfactory they are more likely to go into the building of macadam roads for themselves than
 return to the old-time policy of haul
 ing loam on to the highways in the spring and scraping 1t off again in the fall.

faculty have deemed it wise to provide this special course upon the New York code, It will be a most acceptable ad- dition to the present excellent curi- culum, We understand that Professor William c. Robinson of Washington will next year return for one course of lectures, The change which goes Into effect with the opening of the year. in making the course three years instead of two, win permit of a much more eN- tensiVe course in many studies which have heretofore occupied less time on account of the amount of ground to be covered in the two college years
 Most of the students of the school with the exception of the graduating classes, have already left town, and the members of the two graduating classes will probably leave this afternoon and tomorrow. Nearly every man in the junior class will return next year, and many of the senior class will return for the M. l.. course. The following mem bers of the senior class, who graduate to-day and who will be admitted to the New Haven bar at noon, will prac- tice in New Haven: A. T. Bierkan, T.. H. Cox, J. l.. Hall r. w. Harrison, G.. B. B. Lamb, w. G. Manchester, J, A.. Matthewman, c. F. Stahl, J. C.. Sweeney, E. H. Tucker.
 Pullman and Garvan of 96 will spend the summer abroad, as will several other members of the class. The woods of northern Maine is an attractive re- sort for many of the men, and probably a goodly number of them will spend the greater part of their vacation hunt ing and fishing there.

 Haven Men of the Class.
 A new departure has been taken this year, and an examination for admission to the Law school will be held at the close of the spring term hereafter, as in the other departments of the uni versity.

OTHER YALE NOTES.

Nr. Bennett No Doubt Reelected.
 The Yale corporation met yesterday. The polls were open in the library from 10 a. m. to I D. m. for election of a member of the corporation, but the re- suit will not be officially announced until to-day at the alumni dinner As there is but one candidate for that honor it may safely be concluded that MT. Thomas c. Bennett of this city will be elected.
 THE GROWTH OF YALE
 At this time a few facts regarding Yale's growth are especially interest ing.
 To indicate the growth of the univer- sity within one century President Dwight in his annual report says:
 "There have been five periods of ad- ministration within the century-that of the first President Dwight, which covered twenty-two years; that of President Day, which extended over twenty-nine years; that of President Woolsey, the length of which was twenty-five years; that of President Porter, which continued for fifteen years, and the present administration, of which the ninth year closed at the last commencement. It may be sug- gestive to notice that the number of students in the university, in the pres ent academic year, is Al more than twice the number which graduated as bachelors of arts under Dr. Dwight, from 1895 to 1877; that it is 107 more than were thus graduated under Pres ident Day, from 1917 to 1S46; that it is but IA less than were thus graduated under Dr. Woolsey, from 1S46 to 1871, and that it is 541 less than the number graduated under pr. Porter, from 1871 to. 1886. If the whole num- Der of degrees conferred at the close of the course of study in the sev- eral departments of the university within the last nine years be reckOned, it will be found to exceed the entire number conferred during the quarter of a century covered by Dr. WoOlsey's ad> ministration by about 250, and to equal that of those which were conferred dur ing the fifteen years of the administra- tion of pr. POrter-the period when the number was larger than in any previous presidency"
 Among other facts to which the presi- dent asks attention are the member ship of about 900 of the Christian asso- citations of the university; the eXpan- sion Of the musical department; the extension to four years of the medical course; the growth of the law school; the 225 students now receiving instruc- tion at the art school, and the need of a chair of architecture in that branch; and the exceptional necessities of the library, where the fund, instead of be- ing $100,0 should be at least $500000. " The new gymnasium building and lot have now been paid for, the total cost being s222, ,332. The new trienniai cata- logue shows 16,737 graduates, and the

The New York Democratic State Conven-
 ton To-day-Important Conference
 Whitney Present.
 Saratoga, June 23-Gold and harmony will be the features of the democratic state convention, which is to meet in this town at 12 o'clock tomorrow The strongest kind of a gold platform will be adopted, and all the factions of the party will be merged into one harmo- nious whole to work together at Chi cago for a sound money plank in the platform of the national convention. The election of delegates to Chicago is entirely overshadowed by the great is- sue of an honest currency, for which the democrats of the east realize that they must fight the tide of populism that is rising in the west. Most of the prominent leaders of all the divisions of the party in the state will be pres ent in the convention tomorrow. Sen ator Hill is leading the fight for honest currency, and on that issue every demo- crat in the state is willing to follow him.
 There was an important conference held at the home of the senator near Albany last night. MT. w. C. Whitney was there by invitation to confer with Senator Hill and Chairman Hinckley. Other party leaders joined them this morning, and when the senator and MT Whitney got here this afternoon they brought with them the draft of the soundest kind of a sound money plat form, which the convention will adopt as an expression of the views of the united democrats of the empire state.
