A NEW ADVOCATE OF GOOD ROADS

Though general progress in the Improvement
of public highways is slow, it cannot be doubted
that the cause of good roads is destined to pre-
vail. Even if there only feeble indca-
ton here and there of interest in the subject it
would still be unreasonable to suppose that n
thrifty and intelligent people would always re-
main Indifferent. But in recent years there has
been notable awakening. which in some States
has already produced actual results of great
Importance. In address TO which we lately
referred President Mendenhall of the Worcester
Polytechnic Institute, who is a member of the
Highway Commission. describing what is being
done in Massachusetts. said that during the last
six or eight years more money had been spent
there III road Improvement than in any other
state. The plan now in process of execution
involves reconstruction of the road system of
the commonwealth, embracing about two thou
sand miles. 10 per cent of the whole to
which local effort will doubtless in time mako
large additions. An annual appropriation Of
S50O,0oO enables the Commission to complete
about hfty miles every year. and it could prob
ably obtain S1,000,000 from the Legislature if il
so desired. Truly this is wise liberality which
may we'll cause envy in other parts Of the
country.
We have frequently discussed this subiact
but we find and particularly interesting
suggestion in the fact that Dr. Mendenhalrs
address was delivered before the Automobile
Club of America. The part which the bicvcIe
has taken in the promotion of highway improve
lnent is acknowledged 10 be important. Per-
haps 1t might not be an exaggeration TO say
that the influence exerted by wheelmen in sun
port OF that work has been stronger than that
proceeding from any other source, and il now
seems probabie that the movement will be
taken up by the owners of horseless vehicles
with increasing carnestness as their number
multiplies and their Use extends So long as
outside of centres of population the automo
bile remains chiefly an instrument of pleasure
II may not count for much In the demonstration
Oh the good roads propositions and it is even
possible that some persons win be so narrow
minded as 20 listen with a trace of resentment
TO claims made in Its behalf. But IL such feel.

are some experiments which would better be
left unmade.
POLICY PLAYING IN HEW-YoRK.

It is well known among those who nave
given attention to the subject that policy
gambling Is deplorably prevalent IN many
quarters Of this city, especially among the
dwellers in tenement houses. The unscrupu-
lous rascals who prey upon the poor by means
of this especially despicable form OF swindnng
pay literally for police protection. Unfortunate
victims of the craze for policy are as ruthlessiy
defrauded as the dupes of the poolrooms OF the
three-card cozeners and of the shell game pick
pockets. So-called policy drawings are bogus
affairs and the numbers are always manlpu-
lated in such a way as to fill the pockets of the
"backers" with money that is practically stolen
from the unwary and simple players.
In the various Investigations which have
been carried on here evidence has been heaped
upon evidence that policy gambling flourshes
in New-York because bribes are handed over to
those who have the power to bring about the
suppression of this evil, but refuse 10 exercise
It, Captain Goddard and other clear sighted
citizens who have the welfare of the poor sin
cerely at heart have labOred diligently to put
stop to this pernciOus form of vice, but with all
their earnest efforts they have failed TO secure
the loyal cooperation of the police. Even when
the keepers Of policy shops were arrested and
arraigned in court they usually escaped with
moderate fines, which they could pay readily out
of the spoils of their infamous trade Policy
is gaining ground in New-York. and it is doing
more harm every year. 1t is time that the
community should realize the full extent of this
rascalty. and that public sentiment should he
stirred to righteous wrath. The Police Depart
ment and the magistrates should be called ulon
loudly and insistently to do their duty Proof
can be obtained against dozens and even scores
of the policy lawbreakers, and they should be

ment may stop the policy thieving in New
York. Nothing else

ing should develop it could not last long. There
is reason to suppose that the automobile is des-
tined to occupy a great place in the domestic
economy of the civilized world. In proportion
as 1t makes its way into the common service Of
the people by its adaptability to commercial and
industrial uses, they will recognize the con-
dtions which 1t peculiarly demands and consent
to supply them.
There are many indications that the automo-
bile is on the eve of a general conquest COM
parable in extent with that which the bicycle
so swiftly achieved and otherwise more impor-
tant o mankind. The show which began last
night in the Madison Square Garden cannot fail
to stimulate the growing interest that it illus
trates 1t is confidently expected to attract an
immense number Of visitors and to go on record
as one of the great industrial displays with
which that Indispensable building is identified.
And after 1t is over the impression will remain
in many minds that another powerful advocate
of good roads has come into existence.

CROKER'S CAMPAIGN BANNERS.

Mr. Crokers mean little trick of Haunting
falsehoods and insults in the faces of the masses
of NewIOrk citizens who refuse to bow to his
dctation proved to be the f1attest kind Of fail
ure The bedaubed rags were prepared and put
up cheapiy and ignoranty that scarcely one
of them was in a condition to fulfil it's petty and
contemplate purpose The wind and rain
made some Of them iegible, and II ever they
were noticed at all it was to be jeered at and
ridiculed rather than to provoke serious wrath
1t was simply a case of dirty little boy f1nging
a dirty little mudball and missing the mark
while he himself slipped down with a splash into
the mire.
But one wonders what must be the mental
makeup of this Tammany boss, who thinks, ap-
parently, that his cause could be promoted by
such a device had the weather been favora BILE
TO its working and had every stupid false or III
sulting inscription stared the paraders legibly in
the face There is q classic tale of boy who,
from safe distance. said to his enemy, II can't
lick you, but l can make faces at your sister,
But it is not on record that he thereby won the
sisters friendship or abated the other boys hos
tiity. Does Mr.. Croker really think he can win
votes by insulting voters3
For the only serious purport Of his cheap
campaign banners, which he faunted in on
position to the Stars and Stripes, was to in
suit those who marched beneath them. They
may make you parade" etc. was a common in
scription. What was that but to tell the march
ers they were slaves, chCken-livered towards
who dared not avow and maintain their political
manhood "A Mckinley button on my coat but
Bryan in my heart" was another device. If it
meant anything al all, it meant that the man for
whom it spoke was hypocrite and liar. This
is Trust parade. Vote against Trusts" was

n parade of the business men and working
men of New York. If it n trust parade
then they are the trusts. and to vote against
them would he to vote against the business and
the industry of the city.
We do not think many votes are to be won by
calling men towards and hypocrites, by eX-
horting them to be liars and sneaks Mr..
Croker may think otherwise, and he presum-
ably knows his men. But his men are not the

CAN'T LOSE 1T.

o. H. P Belmont is in panic at the end of
the campaign and working hard to lose his free
silver record, of which he was so proud Until lie
wanted the solid business men of the NllIth
Congress District to send him to Washington
He has just issued statement that he stands
on the currency question where he has always
stood, and that is against free silver, as shown
by a speech on the subject last winter at Gal
weston.
o. H. T. Belmont is the chief proprietor and
publisher of paper known as THE Verdict"
On August 90 1900, that paper contained the
following notice:
Whoever charges that any other than it's
("The Verdicts'0 publisher inspires, in any
fashion of command suggestion
structs, its policies is liar
Following that on September 2l, 1900, "Ihe
Verdict" contained this announcement of its
publishers views on the financial question:
Tell with the gold standard. 1t isn't type high
as an issue this year.
Maybe it is an issue this year and maybe
not. That is a question for the voters To de
eide. but we do not think that the people Of the
NllIth District want Congressman whose
devotion to sound money is expressed in the
phrase Tell with the gold standard" If the
money question is an issue at ALL and the
Bryanite candidate seems TO have concluded
that it is. that is not good anti-sver record
with which to compete with Mr.. Wilcox.
