AS long as Roosevelt has power IN
the Philippines politics must stop at
the water line" and the spoils system
will be kept out of the islands. Presi-
dent Roosevelt in his address of well
come to Vice-Governor Wright made
it very plain that his policy in the
islands would be to administer them
for the benefit of the islanders and not
for the enrichment of the horde of par
tisan Office seekers. Greatly to the dis
gust of some of the more prominent
spoilsmen of his own party THE Presi-
dent has all along steadfastly refused
to make strictly partisan appointments
in the islands. Merit and ability have
had more weight with him than polit
ical pull. During his speech of well
come the President said:
eff we are wise, if we care for our
reputation abroad, if we are sensitive
Of our honor at home, we will allow no
question of partisan politics ever to
CAlCl 1ulO LUC dOLAInlSll dllOA VI TAG
great commands which come under
our flag as result of the war with
Spain.
"Hence say that Gov. Wright, like
Gov. Taft and his associates, has rem
dered peculiar service to every man
jealous of the honor of the American
name in what he has done in admin
istering the Philippine islands. For
fourteen months it has been part of my
business to see how the work there was
done. am not speaking exaggerat-
ingly; am speaking literally, telling
the bare, naked truth, when I say that
never during that time has a question
of party politics entered into even the
smallest action of those in control of
the Philippine islands"

THE Northwestern Railway Com
pany should discontinue the practice of
leaving freight cars standing on the
side track along the compauy's right
of way on West Main, street. The
company owns the right of way, of
course, but one would suppose that the
road would have enough regard for
the appearance of the street to keep
that part Of the line as clear as posi-
BILE. When the switch track was put
down it was announced that it was to
be used only to transfer cars from the
Brass Mills and that it was necessary
to lay the track in order to keep the
main line clear of switch engines and
decrease the chances of accident to a
minimum. For time the switch was
used as transfer track only, but
gradually Il has come to be USED
as storage track for freight waiting
shipment or for empty cars. The
company has large yards west Of the
city, in which there is plenty of track
age for all cars not in use, but for
some unknown reason the switch track
on WestsMain street is in constant use
for storage purposes. If the company
finds it impossible to keep the track
clear, the least the officials can do is to
instruct the train crews to be more
careful in placing the cars. Time and
again cars have been left standing SO
that the sidewalk is wholly or partially
blocked and pedestrians have been
compelled to take to the road in order
to cross the tracks.

TIE announcement that some way
must be found to provide additional
accommodate tons for the school chill
dren of the South wards is no news to
any one who has taken any interest in
the public schools and noted the great
increase in the number of children of
school age in every ward in the city.
The School Board hoped to be able to
transfer the children from the over
crowded wards to some of the other
schools and get along for a time at
least without building another school,
but the increase in attendance in ali of
the schools has been so great that it is
almost impossible for them to take care
of any additional pupils. 1t looks
very much now as if the taxpayers
would have TO go down in their pockets
right away and build another school.
When the Weiskopf school was ordered
built the Board thought that every
need of the school system had been
provided for for some years to come
but the rapid increase in the popula
ton of the city has upset all calcula
tions and additional accommodations
are now necessary.

IF the present plans go through the
Rural Free Delivery System will be ia
operation all over the United States at
no distant day. 1t is estimated that
the territory of the United States
available for rural free delivery en-
braces 1 100000 square miles, or one
third of the country's area, excluding
Alaska. The $50 routes how in OPP
Grafton cover little more than 100000
square miles, so that almost one-third
of the available territory has been pro-
vided with service. It is only matter
of simple calculation to find that the
remaining 100000 square miles will re-
quire the employment of 10000 or
$1,000 carriers in addition to those now
in the service.
A complete rural free delivery sys-
tenn in operation all over the United
States will cost approximately $24 ,O00,.
600 annually and upwards of 10000
carriers will be employed in the SER
vice. 1t is estimated that it will take
three years to extend the system to
cover the whole country and that dur
ing the time required to make the ex-
tensions and get the system in full op-
Grafton the annual deficit of the de-
partment will not be less than $1O,-

when the system is once fairly started
the increased revenues resulting from
the additional patronage of the people
served by the system will more THAI
balance this deficit. 1t is unlikely that
any obstacles will be placed in the

IF it comes to choice between an

ton, both bidding for franchise to
install an independent telephone sys-

long to make up their minds to give it

any profits to be made let some of our
own citizens make them and keep the
money at home. Before granting a
franchise to anybody, however, the
Aldermen should be thoroughly con-

telephones recently developed in GER
