The report of the railroad commits
sioners on the accident to the engine
''Presumpscot" on the Portland& Roch-
ester Railroad, two weeks ago, is ex-
pected to be received and made public
in a few days. According to the state
ment Of the expert who examined the
debris of the engine, there seems little
doubt that they will attach some Oh

The returns that we are receiving
are from the small towns and planta-
tons" remarked Secretary Plummer
of the board of State assessors, Satur-
day. They are. of course, not enough
to form any opinion as to the increase
or decrease of the valuation by the
local assessors over last year"
In conversation with Mr.. Plummer
he said he believed the board needed a
larger map Of the State Of Maine than
it is possible TO obtain. The railroad
map issued by the railroad commits
sioners is a good one and very accu-
rate, but it is not large enough for the
use of the board. And yet Mr.. Plum
mer says, ii would be hard to have
map that would be accurate more than
two years, as so many changes are be-
ing made by the Legislature. A part
Of one township is set off and added TO
another. cities are made greater, and
all that, so that a map would be Of
little use after two years.
Perhaps such map as the land office
possesses might be good for the de-
partment. This map is of northern
Maine embracing the entire section
north of the Moosehead region. 1t is
one made in Bangor on transparency
paper, and is one of the most complete
and accurate maps ever issued. 1t is
nearly eight feet long and about SIX
feet wide The map of entire Maine
would be an excellent thing on the
same scale. It. could be kept on
roller as the land office map is kept.
Speaking of the land office map, an
excellent copy has recently been made
of it for a well-known Maine capitalist
and wild land owner. The work, which
has been done by Frank E. Oak, re-
fleets great credit upon Mr.. oaks abll-
ity as a draughtsman. He has been
occupied since the adjournment OF the
legislature upon the work and has but
Just completed IT.

YET WE STAND 1T.

Topeka for a large part of today was
buried in clouds of dust. We all love
to tell about the beauties of Topeka,
about our wonderful band, our auditor
ium that is to be, our superb Fall Festi-
walls, our culture and one thing and an
other but we can't keep down the dust
There is one place where Topeka says
cant" and means it.
Now, why can't we? What is the use
Of half dozen white wings" going out
with brushes about as useful as tea
spoons and trying to clean the streets.
The clouds of dust that were endured
by Topeka people today are a disgrace
to the city. Why let private enterprise
sprinkle our streets when the city
should do it just the same as it cleans
them. There are still a great many old
fogy customs in Topeka-nOtably max
ing the property owner lay the pave
ments and the sidewalks when the
whole city uses them. Why don't we let
the people who read the books in the
public library support the public Ii
brary? 1t would be just as sensible as
it is to make the property owner pay
for a pavement that 10000 other people
use. Why make the merchants pay for
sprinkling the streets when the city
ought to pay for it? The streets are not
half sprinkled either, when it is every
body's business to look after it,

MORE TROOPS NEEDED.
A Correspondent Says Fighting Has
Just Begun.

New York, April PA dispatch to
the Herald from Manila says:
Lawton's command captured the viii
lagos of Pagsajan and Lumbar yester-
day, with some resistance at the latter
place.
The mouth of the river commanded by
Lumbar was effectually blocked against
the entrance of the gunbOats. Shells
from the Laguna de Bay drove most of
the insurgents in flight up the mountain
side a small force remained in an old
church side, offering resistance until it
was rushed by the troops.
About fifty were captured and several
killed. There was one casualty among
the Americans, that being an arm
wound.
Six launches and two Gaseous were
captured in the river. The river mouth
was to he dredged today and the OBJ
structions removed
Santa Cruz and Pagsajan are now
guarded by the men of the Fourth cav
