4 LESSON FROM NEWJERSET.

One of the most encouraging statements IN
the report just published Of the Ncw-Jersey
Road Commissioner relates To the educatiOnal
effect which the good roads constructed in that
State have had on the community In general.
1t Is known universally that New-Jersey has
been one of the pioneers in road Improvement.
Six wears ago an intelligent system was adopt
ed and il has since been carried on with re-
markable success. Some 300 miles Of fine roads
have been built at cost of nearly S1JOo.OOo.
the State paving One-third. And now Commits
sOner Budd reports that the fear OF increased
taxation hitherto entertained by the farmers Is
RAPIDLY giving way to an intense desire that
they shall obtain good roads sooner than the
aDprOpriation now made will permit The
Commissioner favOrs increasing the approprla-
ton 10 5000 600 which would mean an annual
expenditure of $1.OO0.0W for improved roads.
As n matter of fact. the petitions OF some com
munities anxious to get the benefit Of a share
of the State money have been on file for years.
and the DC ople Interested are naturally grow
ing impatient.
These are healthy symptoms The experience
in New-Jerscy Is duplicate OF that in Massa-
chusctts where last year not more than Id
Der cent of the petitions received could be acted
! on for lack of money Who can doubt that the
same thing will be seen in this state as soon
| as n plan Of State aid in the construction OF
roads is adopted and put in practice! 1t may

the ultimate results are not in doubt. People
| in the rural communities must soon have their
eyes opened. and see plainly that good roads
are one Of the things they cannot afford not

SENTENCES TO IDLENESS.

The failure of the prison authorities to pro-
vide as yet, sufficient work to keep the inmates
Of our State prisons employed is tending to pro-
duce results not fOrcseen even by those most
urgent in calling attention TO the evil OF leaving
cOnvicts i'm idlcness. They have spoken or the
inhumanity of locking up men without occupa-
ton, of the danger of making them insane. or
of breaking down instead of building up their
moral FIBRE and Of the difficulty Of maintaining
discipline and avoiding outbreaks. But they
have not been brought TO consider the effect of
convict idencss on the courts and the free Grim
inal class.
A Rochester Judge was required a few days
ago to pass sentence for embezzlemen,. When the
case had been called. and friend of the prisoner
had made plea for leniency. the District
Attorney argued that the facts pleaded should
not act in mitigation of sentence. but frankly
allowed that there was another fact that should
lessen the penalty. 1t was that prison labor
had practically been abolished. and that "one
day under the new system was equal TO TWO
under the old The Judge apparently took
much the same view of the case. for. after re-
counting the circumstances and expressing his
belief i'm the duty of sternness. he added: BE
"leyjnC that i'm your case the degree Of pun
"ishment will not be measured by the length Of
imprisonment. particularly if you are deprived
"of the blessing which honest labor. even in
"prison. brings with il. we are yet face to race
with the stern duty which requires an example
for the benefit of Others. and then he fixed the
sentence at one year and six months
We have no disposition to regard this as an
unreasonable light sentence. 1t is not ut all i'm
probable that leniency was justified by general
considerations. But the stress laid upon the
hardship of idlencss. both by prosecuting ofncer
and Judge gives ground for speculation as to
tbe probability of sentences being cut In two
hereafter. solely because labor is not provided.
Nobody could blame humane judge for being
inclined TO such mercy. but the result would
he most unfortunate An era Of light sentences
would encourage lawlessness. The criminal
classes are less likely TO discover the reason
for short terms or to balance the punishment
offered by one day Of denesS or two days OF
work than 10 grow reckless with the notion
that the law is less severe This is particularly
true of the petty offenders to whom such mercy
is likely to he shown They are the people who
take the law and its penalties into account ana
who respond most readily to the vigilance or
inactivity of the police. and the treatment
which they receive in court The State Prison
Commission in its annual report shows a
proper sense of the necessity Of providing work.
but the days are passing. the convicts remain
idle and Investigations and reports are only
useful as they lead to action. Every days de-

serious wrong.

EXTENT or THE FAMINE.

The extent Of the famine in India. AZ now dis
closed Is Truly appalling. in respect both of the
aIea affected and the number OF its inhab-
tanfs. Nothing like it has been known before
within the period Of British rule The dreadful
famine of Orissa rayaged single province. and
other vista,ions have prevailed in a cluster OF
PROVINCES But this one extends from Bombay
10 Calcutta AMI from the upper Indus To the
Coromandcl Coast. All the Punjanb north anG
east Of Bawalpur is in distress while in Multan
and Amriisar there Is utter restitution. Distress
prevails in the entire southeastern half OF Raj
putana. beyond Ajmere. There Is actual famine
throughout all the Northwest Provinces includ-
ing Dude and Bchar. Bundelcund. in Central
India and Patna and Bnagalpur in Bengal. are
in distress: and so are Magpur and Bustar. Of
the Central Provinces, while OF the latter
Jubbulpur and Chattisgarh. and Orissa in Ben
gal are utterly famincstricken All OF the
Madras Presidency north OF Madras itself is
suffering. as is also the southern corner OF
Hyderabad; and all Of the Bombay Presidency
inland from the Western Ghauts Is In extreme
distress. The tracing Of these districts on the
map will show that about two-thirds of The
whole country are affected, and that about one
fourth of the whole is suffering actual famine.
Nor Is the situation less dreadful when seen
from the point of view Of population. The
famine districts include some of the most
dcnsely inhabited provinces Of the Empire. In
the Northwest Provinces and Dude there are
40 OtW. 900. and in Behar l6OO0.OOO more. all
within the famine area. The ADMINISTRATION
parts of Bombay have S.0O0.OOO: Of the PunJaub
S.OOOOOO; of the Central Provinces. o.W0,W~
of Madras. 3.0OO.OOO. and Orssa has 4.ooO.Ooo
There are thus "a 900 600 inhabitants. or con
siderably more than the whole population OF
the United States. in the area OF actual famine.
not TO mention nearly rs many more In the re-
gons suffering mere distress. How vastly
worse this is than any former famine Is seen
from the fact that the famine of 1S6o-'G6 ar

II gives one an air of uncommon smartness'
no doubt. TO sheer at such an enterprise as the
proposed Pacific cable. and TO refer sarcastical-
" TO its "incidentai subsidy. and to It's pure
and patriotic character. But plain. every

wondering why such a scheme in the United

similar one in Canada but with bigger sub

The facts are as everybody knows-excep'-
ing. perhaps. some very superior Iersohs-'il''

would be greatly benefited by such cable that
Hawaii would welcome the landing OF II on her
shore: that japan would at least be hospltaDle

small subsidy asked II is also known that Great
Britain and her American and Australasan
colonies are taking practical steps for the lay
ing of such cable. which is avOwcdly to he
under exclusively British control and Is TO he
entirely monopOlized by the British Government,
for military and naval purposes whenever de-
