Aged Farmer Could Not Hear Flying

Clayton, y. Y. May II When
Geo. Baird, an old farmer, walk

one OF his fields this morning
his wife and two daughters stood
IN the doorway, watching his re-
treating figure. The old man
had to pass over the tracks of
the West Jersey and Seashore
railroad, which run within a few
feet of his house, and as he is
very deaf his children usually
look out for him as he approach
es the dangerous point. They
still had their eyes on him, when
the morning express from Cape
May came rushing up the track
at mile a minute clip. They
screamed a warning and the en-
giueer blew a mighty blast or
his whistle but the old man did
not hear. As he got on the tracks
the flying train struck him anc
hurled his body far ahead anC

THINK We, voter, some day, when
the relentless summer sun is bister1ng
the ground and the little singing bird
futters away to his shady arbor, you
will betake yourself to the lake shore
in search of the ba1my northeaster.
You will gaze on the crowded park and
the black, unsight1y hole that follows
the breakwater out of sight. The
odor of garbage, the refuse of the back
yards of the city, dead dogs and other
putrid things will greet your nostrils
and you will recall the bright prom
ises of yesterday. Your mind will
picture that ma1odorous waste a beau
tifu1 park, with seats beneath the
shade, where, cool breezes tanning
your brow, you might sit and dream,
watching the white winged vessels
going out to sea. Think of it, voter
what might have been-then kick

MAYOR german has been reelected
on his record, or the record of his ad-
llinistration. That record is as fol-
lows:
Paltering and di1atory methods rela-
tive 10 the electric railway franchise.
a defunct city treasury.
Wide open saloons and gambling
deus.
Filthy streets and poor sanitary con-
ditions.
Numerous tramps and petty crimes.
The fact that Mr.. German has been
reelected on this record may seem to
bind him to a similar course of action
in the future. But still we believe that
<on the whole, there are some features in
his last years program that he could
leave out without any detriment to his
hopes and ambitions as leader to the
Democratic party and the first citizen
of the city. We believe that Mr.. Cor
man could keep out the hobos and keep
the streets clean without detractlng
greatly, if at all, from his support.
Of course it is not for the outs to ask
more of the ms than to attempt to do
some of those things that could not
possible weaken their prestige. We
would not presume to ask them to en-
force the law by keeping the saloons
closed at the proper hours OF closing
up the gambling dens, We can see
plainly how this would be an imposi-
tion and a piece of consummate pre-
sumption on our part. But how it
would initiate against the vote that
elected Mr.. German to keep the streets
clean and the hobos little less numer-
Gus and the record of crimes, great
aud small, little shorter than it has
been, we fail to comprehend. Then,
thoroughly believing that Mr.. German
will be willing to do all that his back
ing and the obligations of his contract
will allow him to Go toward the I'M
provement Of the external conditions
of the city, we leave these few humble
suggestions for his consideration.

Frederick Law Olmstcad Of Boston
and ]. Fl. Burnham Of Chicago have
been appointed commissioners to form
comprehensive plans for the future de-
velopment of the city of Washington.
The act authorizing the appointment
Of such a commission was passed at
the closing session of the last congress
and provided for three commissioners.
The third will be selected by the two
Just named. This commission will deS
ignate the sites Of public buildings yet
to be built, lay out boulevards and pro-
vide for beautifying and extending the
park system. This means that intelli-
gent system will replace the haphazard
methods followed in too many cities.
Washington enjoys advantages above
any other American city in the posi-
bilities which it offers for systematic
supervision in the matter Of construct
ing new public buildings and the lay
ing out Of parks, grounds and streets,
and it may confidently be expected as
the national capital develops under ca
pable supervision it will become one Of
the most beautiful and attractive cities
i'll the world.

A highly rejecting metal unaffected

The Ontario government has re
served 100000 acres of wild land

Law Affecting youthful Offenders.

Law Affecting Youthful Offenders.
There is before the legislature of the
state of New York a bill granting the
privilege to the police justice Of Buff
falo to suspend the sentence Of youth
full offenders and providing for the ap-
pointment of five probation officers to
look after them. While the measure is
local in it's application, it embodies
principles that may be applied else
where. 1t is in line with the juvenile
court law in Illinois, which has been in
successful operation for about two
years, and the probation law which has
just been adopted in Missouri. A SINH
lar measure is being considered by the
Michigan and the Pennsylvania legisla-
lures and will undoubtedly be adopted
by those bodies.
The plan of suspending sentence up
on boys and girls convicted of misde-
meanors has been more or less in
vogue throughout the country, but has
not worked altogether satisfactorily in
preventing repetitions of offenses.
When the judge gave the children their
freedom, most Of them felt that they
were in fact free. The Interpretation
of the law has always been that the
suspended sentence could not be put in
force until the boy was rearrested for
some new offense, when the chances
were that he would not be identified
and that the former sentence would be
forgotten. The moral effect Of this was
thoroughly bad, as it tended to create
contempt for the court in the minds Of
the offenders.
Under the law proposed for Buffalo
the suspended sentence may become a
very useful corrective During the
time Of probation the boys will be
obliged to report regularly to the pro-
baton officers, who will be men Of high
character, deeply interested in the well
fare of the young.
The operation of this system in Buff
falo will be watched with interest not
only in New York state, but elsewhere,
and doubtless similar provisions will
be made in other communities.

Finally the animal was forced into a
position that it could not escape

Out of the thirty-five wards of the

twenty-six and Hanecy nine. The vote
was badly split, some of the strongest

only a small plurality for the party
nominee and some of them going for
Harrison, who, however, suffered in
some of the Democratic strongholds

the ward for two years. Palmer was
elected by a majority Of about 1,2OO.
Democrats Garry City Offices.
The Democrats have carried all Of
the city offices on the ticket
as well as that of mayor. William
Loeff1er was elected city clerk, A. j.
Ryan city attorney, and G. f. Gunther,
city treasurer. From the figures avail
able at midnight it appears that their
pluralities will be within 1000 of May
or Harrison's. None of them will prob
ably have a majority exceeding his.
Town Elections Even.
In the various towns the elections
were about evenly divided. The Dem
ocrats carried the south, north and
probably the west towns, while the Re
publican officials have been elected in
the towns of Jefferson. Hyde Park and
Cicero. The Municipal Voters league,
an organization composed Of business
men, took an energetic part in the
aldermanic contest in the various
wards. The aim of the organization
was to secure the nomination of men
considered most competent to serve as
aldermen, irrespective of politics. The
league indorsed twenty-nine candi-
dates, of whom eighteen were elected.
