Another Rotten Scheme.

Newspaper publishers are being
asked to say whether rule of the

publications that use ready nrlnt

universal verdict is that it would
not. Only the cheaper class of
papers resort to the deception Of
ready print to increase a circula.
ton not found on merit or the

rule would encourage the growth

4 Football Suggestion.

On Saturday. when DAILY, the West
Point quarterback, ran more than
Kindred yards and made touchdown
for the Army. the President stood up
and watched the interesting play with
admiration and wonder, while the
field rang with the plaudits of the
spectators
Why did this great run so excite
and crafty those who witnessed it?
in The present game of football there
are score of plays which are count
ed superior 20 this; there were plays
at Philadelphia which are reckoned
as of higher skill by football experts
than a long run down the field, which
is often. perhaps usually, due to bit
of luck
This run and the enthusiasm with
which it was received is an illustra-
tfon of the historic truth that man
kind loves a successful man; that the
actual achievement of the individual
counts for more than skillful com
binations which may denote much
more cultivated and cunning intellec-
tual powers. but which end in nom
success or in less success than is
achieved by the brilliant single favor
tie of fortune.
This is point for the consideration
of those who are seeking TO amend,
or reform, the game of football. Open
plays are more brilliant than massed
plays; they give the individual player
q better chance; they increase inter
lest, IN the game; and, OF course, they
greatly lessen the chances of injury,
if, indeed, this consideration be OF
importance to football enthusiasts.

TO RAISE RAILWAY CROSSINGS.
Pennsylvania Company TO spend
5000 1000 in This work.

NEW YORK, Dec. with the eIeva-
vania Railroad will inaugurate a vast
scheme Of improvements, at cost OF s20,-
OGe .0c0, throughout the entire length Of its
system from New York to Philadelphia,
greatly shortening the running tine be-
tween the two big cities.
The scheme involves the Strengthening
of every curve and the elevation Of tae
tracks at every crossing.
Even the country road will not be for
gotten Under the law passed by the Leg
islature last winter municipalities viii
have the right to grant concessions to
railroads which by necessity or otherwise
desire TO elevate their tracks
Jersey City now enjoys safety on its
streets by the elevation of the c0n5anys
tracks from the ferry to the FONT of
Rocks. while Newark Will in about a year
enjoy the same privilege through the ex-
tensive work now in progress. Elizabeth
is also favored with track elevation
through the entire length OF two miles.
The elevation of the tracks OF the COM
pany at New Brunswick already has been
commenced after a long negotiation with
property holders and the municipal aiI-
thorities. The new bridge at this rcint
over the Raritan River will have eighteen
stone arches.
At Trenton the elevating OF the tracks
has begun and will cover an area of nearly
three miles. and at this locality the
bridge over the Delaware River will
have twenty-one arches. Camden will be
cared for by the elevation of the tracks
there At every point in the road system
where there is a curve or steep grade The
curve will be taken out and grade leyeled
The officials Of the company deny that
the new terminal railroad now being buAc
and to be operated between the Railway
ReformatOry or section In that neighbor-
hood, is in any way connected with them.
The new road, which will be operated for
about six miles east and west from point
near the reformatory is being built by
private capital. and will tap the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad tracks near that point, and
is for the purpose of supplying the many
manufacturing interests along the Staten
Island Sound with coke.
A new station will be built at Elizabeth
to take the place of the old eastbound
passenger station, and this will probably
be located on East Broad Street property,
known as the Bath property"
The freight yard, it IS said. will be near
the Walnut Street baseball grounds 1t
is said that it Will take nearly five years
to accomplish all that the Pennsylvania
Railroad intends to do through New Jer

Thc Coming Session.

The Congress which meets today
for the first time is likely to be eX-
ceedingly interesting The eXpecta-
ton that the session is big with fate
is due to several causes. The spirit
of great commercial enterprises is in
the public mind. The thrill of present
prosperity inspires large dreams of
he future. In the second place, there
is large surplus, which is available
for enterprise. or. aS Speaker Hen
der,on saws, is a source of danger, for
it is also available for folly and ex-
travagance. In ;he third place, we
are on the eve of Congressional
election.
What will Congress do? Will il eN-
pend these millions wisely in aid of
commercial development? win it
throw the money away? Or will it
reduce revenues in order that ii may
escape temptation? The majority will
naturally not decide one of these
problems without considering the eff
feet of the decision on the coming
election.
The fate of the session hangs on
these propositions The tariff; taxa
ton: trade relations with Cuba; the
Isthmian canal: ship subsidies. We
may assume, at the outset, that there
will be no tariff changes. and that the
pending reciprocity treaties will fail.
\ strong effort viii be made in the
House for Il reduction of the WIT
taxes. and the attempt will meet with
opposition based on the possibly large
demand for the increased navy,
wears postponed river and harbor inn
provements. subsidy and canal ap-
pFopriations.
The new Hay-Pauncefote Treaty is
likely to be ratified, but it and the
Nicaragua Canal bill will be con-
tested by interests which do not wish
any canal, aided b. the Panama Canal
Company. which seeks to prevent the
seie stion of the Nicaraguan route.
The chances. however. are i'll favor of
bofii the treaty and the bill; and one
thing is reasonably sure: If Congress
has not the capacity TO dispose of this
question at the present session, it is
likely that time and decay will take
the subject within their fatal juris
dietion.
Most interesting discussions are
likely to occur over the proposition
10 give some trade concessions to
Cuba, and to build up merchant
marine by subsidies. A majority of
both Houses of Congress are probably
against the one and for the other.
But it does not follow thnt this will
bold true. The President intends to
make contest for the Cubans, and
may win. As to subsidies, its fate
hangs on politics. The real question
al issue is, What effect will such an
sct have ON the voters?

ItnIy's Art Law.

g. American art collectors have fire.
quentIv had reason to regret the law
whereby the Italian Government re
tains TO itself the right Of preventing
sales of works of art To purchasers
resident outside of Italy. Italian
owners of art treasures have equal
cause to regret law which prevents
many an impoverished family from
turning its assets into current coin
of the realm.
Prince Borghese possesses. as is
well known, the most valuable pri-
vate art collection in Italy. He owns
many of the principal works of Ii
tian, Correggio. Botticelli, Perugino,
and Raphael. The value of the col
lection, so far as can be estimated, is
fully two million dollars. As a pa
triotic Italian, Prince Borghese de-
sired to meet the requirements of the
art law, and had promised 10 make
n gift 10 the Government of all of
his art collection if only he could
obtain permission to sell to a for
eigner one painting, by Raphael.
Permission was refused, and now the
Chamber of Deputies has passed a bill
appropriating seven hundred and fifty
thousand dollars for the purchase of
the princes gallery.
To art collectors of the United
States this fact is of considerable i'm
portance, because America, despite
