For Street improvements.

THE REPUBLICAN is of the opinion
that no question is of more importance
To tie people of Watertown just now
than that of street improvements Good
roads are certainly boon to any COM
munity, but we do not possess them.
This is very evident from just casual
glance at our miry thoroughfares. OF
course, the natural condition Of the soil
is against us, but again, the manner of
"improving" streets has always been
wrong here. A remedy should be taken,
and we think the great majority of our
citizens will agree that some new line of
work should be begun without delay. If
only for a couple of blocks on each side
Of the river, let start in the good wo:
be made this year. Such would perhaps
needs be sn experiment, but the tax
payers would then have a chance to
judge of the works merits, and if not
satisfactory something else could be
tried Lot rhe subject of street improve
ments be an Issue Of this springs cam
paign and vote for only such candidates
for office who are openly and empha,i
cally committed to an earnest effort, at
least, for better roads in Wdtertown
Our citizens might see an excellent
object lesson in this work by visiting our
little neighbor to the SOUTHPORT At
kinson. An fine piece of macadam-
izing was done there last summer, and
while it seems to be substantial and to
answer every purpose, we understand il
was not over-expensive. Fort Atkinson's
Main street looks like parIor floor
just now aaen compared to ours.

Washington, Feb. 27.-The quadren-
NAL swinging of the political pendulum
is at hand. Away from one party go
the reins Of power to be snatched by
another. This Inauguration like others
Of recent years will divide itself into
three distinct parts: the swearing in
and inaugural address, the after parade.
and the ball in the evening. Thursday.
March 4th, will be a busy day and be-
gin early. At the first flush Of dawn
the servants will be up in the white
house getting ready the Cleveland's bag
gage for transportation to Princeton.
While this hustle is going on the presi-
dent-elect, over in the Ebbitt house will
be sprucing up for the biggest day in
MS life. He will dress in the dark
clothes and shining silk hat which GUS
tom has prescribed for the occasion.

The Greeks continue their occupation
of Crete. A British cruiser prevented a
Greek steamer from landing provisions
on the island, but the prohibition is un-
derstood to apply only to that part Of
the coast occupied by the powers.
Desultory firing was reported between
the insurgents along the heights of
Suda, on the island of Crete, and the
Turkish outposts. The Turkish men-of
war threw a few shells, but did no
damage. During the armistice of a week
at Selinos the Christians have agreed
that the inhabitants of the town be
allowed to depart under certain condi
tons. A dispatch received in Vienna
from Athens says the powers have re-
quested Greece to Wishdraw her forces
from Crete in "a hours. Later dis
patches from Athens and Crete report
that Greece has declared that if the
bombardment of the insurgent positions
N the island of Crete is repeated she
will break off diplomatic relations with
the powers. Turkey is reported to have
| threatened that Turkey will break off
diplomatic relations with the powers
unless the Greek troops are withdrawn
from Crete. In the meantime war of
determination is being waged between
! the Christians and Mohammedans in
| Crete.

MANY GOOD THINGS.

Prof. Otis T. Mason, curator of the
chronological museum of Washington,
has made study Of primitive methods
of transportation, and in a lecture on
the subject delivered at Philadelphia
last week he said that the practice of
bearing burdens on the back, supported
by band across the forehead, was typ
ical Of the North American aborigines,
and that the practice may be traced
from Alaska down to Central America.
If this was intended to imply that no
other primitive peoples than those of
this continent resorted to the eXpedient
mentioned, the statement will occasion
a good deal Of surprise and perhaps
some doubt. Books of travel, if mem
Dry serves, depict the ancient and mod
ern inhabitants of many other lands as
using the band across the forehead as
a means of making more convenient the
transportation of heavy burdens.
A New York florist made this state
ment few days ago: "The ordinary
roses, at this season, from $3.50 to So
dozen, and American Beauty roses ST
apiece. The growth of the taste for
flowers at all social affairs is astonish-
ing. Fifty thousand roses Of the $3.50
to So per dozen kind are sold in New
York every day in these winter months,
and nearly 5000 American Beauty roses
are sold daily by New York dealers at
81 each. Orchids cost about SO a
dozen"

Prof. Munk Of the University Of Ber-
lin, famous for his discoveries in the
Of the brain. says it is a
great mistake to suppose that gymnastic
exercises sandwiched in between school
hours rest the pupils. On the contrary,
be says, they still more fatigue the
brain, which ought to have absolute
rest. If both studies and gymnastics
are to be INDUCED in on the same day,
