REV. j. o'sULLIvAN.
What He Says On Election to the
Legislature.

The election of Rev. D. ]. O'Sulli-
van. of st. Albans, as a member of the
Vermont legislature, is a noteworthy
event, as lie is the first Catholic priest
to be chosen a member of that body.
He is a man of commanding pres
ence, an eloquent orator and a man
of broad and liberal views, popular
with all classes and denominations.
He was prominently mentioned for a
bishopric when Rev. J. S. Michaud
| was named as coadjutor to the late
Bishop De Goesbriand.
Father O'Sullivan is already men,
toned as the possible Democratic can
didate for speaker of the general as
sembly. In discussing his choice as
a member of the legislature, lle said:
Il see no reason why should have
refused the nomination rendered to
me. A priest who is a native born
American citizen, and who from the
time of his majority, has borne the
burdens and fulfilled the duties, pub
lie and private, of Americans citizen
Ship, should not be barred from any
of it's rights, privileges OF honors.
'The cry that a priest has no busi-
ness in politics is un-Amalican, I'M
just and untrue. That cry is raised
by some who do not understand Amer
lean citizenship and by others who
seek to disflallchise a certain class
of citizens OIL account of their creed
or their profession.
'That cry may be justified in coun-
tries where priests Use their pulpits
or their official authority for the f,n"th-
erance Of their personal OF party i'll
terests. American Catholic priests
have better understanding of their
duties and their rights.
"The adoption of politics as a pro-
fession by a priest might conflict with
his pastoral Duties or with church dis
cipline; but there are times when the
priest should come forward and as
sert his right to share in the manage
ment of public affairs.
Il believe we We're confronted by
such an emergency in this campaign, in
which every good citizen should ex-
ert every right and legitimate infiu-
ence to remedy or to avert the evils
that aff1ict on threaten our state.
"Tle time has come for a deter
mined effort to rid our state Of the
denominations and disgraces occasloned
by the prollibitory law, and the insin-
cere and corrupt methods of its en-
forcement. The political party which
is responsible for tlrlt law has proven
itself to be either unable or unwilling
to enforce it.
''That party processes a willingness
to abrogate that law ut the next ses-
sion of our legislature. l should put
greater faith in that profession if it
had not been made under the stress
of political expediency.
II prefer to trust the men and the
measures that for years have stood for

There has also been an enormous in
crease in the circulation of MONTH
lies, which is undoubtedly owing to
the low price magazines. The num-
ber of monthlies in 1900 was 1877

previous census in 1880 reported 1,734

A Nation Of Newspaper Readers.

That we are a nation of newspaper
readers is abundantly proved, if proof
were needed, by a late bulletin of the
twelfth census. According to this,
there are 1926 newspapers and peri
odicals of all kinds in the United
States, an increase of 22.3 per cent
from the census of 1890. OF these,
1926 are dailies, 12.979 weeklies and
1,S17 monthlies. The character of the
different publications is as follows:
The Irish standard., 1902-09-27

The increase in the circulation of
all CLASSES Of newspapers has kept al
most even pace with the growth Of
the city population of the country, be-
ing 22.3 per cent for all publica-
tions and 2O.7 for population. The av-
eruge number of inlla bitants for each
daily newspaper has been about the
same during the last twenty years. In
1880 there We're 4,443 inhabitants for.
every daily, in 1890 1924 and in 1900
4,17O.
During the decade from 1890 to
1900 the increase in publications de-
voted to special subjects was checked,
while those devoted to news, politics
and general reading made decided
relative advance. This is accounted
for by the fact that the newspapers,
particularly the larger daily papers
with their immense Sunday editions,
have invaded about every field of
knowledge and activity, and the pub
hcations devoted to special subjects
have had to yield.
The following table shows the in
crease in the number and circulation
Of daily newspapers during the last
half century:

which white predomin2tes. One new
feature that will probably meet with
considerable success this year shows
an entire boa made Of chiffon IN bell
like effects. the one bell being inside
the other and each one heavily edged
with white ostrich. Around the neck
this boa is heavier, but that is all. II
Is a decidedly new form and promises
well For evening we shall proba bly,
see quito a number Of these In fancy
colors, such as pink and light blue. and
with these, as well as with the muffs,
we may look for whole sets consisting
of boa and nun, and frequently the
hat, too. will match also.
Another form that we will see a
great deal of is the broad cape variety
with the streamers long and wide. On
these broad capped effects handsome
lace will frequently be applied over a
foundation OF either silk, mousseline,
or some other material OF q rather thin
order.
Besides all these light eolored af-
fairs, some darker boas too will be
worn, ever for early season. In these,
taffeta effects will be strong, and be-
sides this louisine will be used to a
considerable extent. Boas on this or
der are usually OF the simplest and
plainest variety and are meant more
for day use or absolute necessity.
Others, somewhat fancier, are of black
mousseline or some other such diaph-
anous fabric deliberately trimmed.
These are gathered, plated, shirred,
and otherwise adorned in the hundred
and one forms in which they have been
treated ever since they first came into
prominence.

BEAUTIFYING ROADS.
4 Movement That VIII Appeal Fsrss-
bly, to Those Interested In
Aesthetic Progress

The road improvement campaign,
which has been so ably conducted by
those interested In riding, bicycling
and automobiling in recent years, is
| about to enter upon another stage Of
progress, which Will appeal with Spe-
! cial force to those interested in things
beautiful. Heretofore, the utilitarian
view of the road Improvement has
been kept well in the foreground, but
| now several New England communities
are empasizing the aesthetic value Of
beautiful roadsides Scientific road
treatment must of necessity come
first, but identifying roadsides repre-
Sents even more advanced stage Of
civilization. The pleasure of riding
over good, firm, smooth country roads
Is greatly increased when the trees,
shrubbery and general roadside ap-
pearances are pleasant TO look at and
| cool and inviting 20 the eye That there
are no art and science in roadside
treatment IS made very apparent by
experiments made in New England.
Instead of sacrificing trees that would
| take half a century to replace, the
road masters devise some methods of
planted at favorable places. Shrub
| berry along roadsides can be either a
nuisance or a source of great aesthetic
value. 1t al depends upon its location
and nature. Along many roadsides the
| attempt Is made TO cut down all weeds,
| shrubbery and grass. Clean sweep is
made of everything, and the result is
anything but artistic.
The movement started in New Eng
land now is TO plant trees and shrubs
/ along the roadsides to enhance their
beauty The paintings are far enough
back from the roadway, so that
branches viii never interfere with
passing carriages, and steps are taken
| 20 keep the bitches free from ali OBJ
structing growths. 1t is asserted that
If farmers would give as much atten-
| ton 20 trimming and caring for these
trees and shrubs as they now devote
| TO ruthless cutting down of every
| thing along the roadside In the fall Of
the year, they would thrive and pro-
| duce artistic effects. The selection of
| the proper trees and shrubs for the
! different roads Is a matter for local
! consideration. but those which do not
harbor insects injurious to field crops,
and which give the most striking eff
feet TO the landscape, are recommend
1 ed. These trees should be trimmed
high, so that surrounding We've of
the country viii not be shvt of, and
in this way one will get the benefit of
the shade without spelling the view.
! Such artistic treatment OF the road
4 sides requires judicious management,
but systematic study of the subject
Is now being carried on In different
parts OF New England. and II ts ex-
| pected within a year or two de-
cided change for the better viii be
poticed along the leading country
highways. Unxightly hedges and
close cropped rosdsides, with general
air OF neglect and untidineaS. may
they disappear entirely, and the trav-
eler will find constant feasts for the

Elaborate Back Effects for Fall Gowns

ticeable on them than on the bodices
and waists. But the entire back Of the
fashionable gown will be deliberately
decorated.
Sashes OF many varieties will be
worn. Some will be long, and Others
short and others but little more than
big bow at the waist line But there
will be few without a sash or bow of
some kind. This has been decreed by
Paris, and we are TO again permit
Paris to rule for US
faSorite form of skirt elaboration
and ornamentation IS the tuck. IN
stead OF extending around the front
and sides only, as has been the case
through the summer, they will now
encircle the back as well.
The paneled skirt will be another
of the favorfte modsla, and several va
rieties of these are among the impox-
tstions that are now in New York.
They are used TO good advantage in
producing the military effect which is
again the fashionable after a season
of rest.
Still another method of elaboration
Is the alI-over embroidered effect, of
which we show one OF the popular
models. This gown has a star-pointed
collar. the all-over embroidered skirt
and the double sash bow at waist Line
Lace capes Will be much IN vogue for
fall. and viii in numerous ways aSsist
in the general scheme of back elabora-
ton. Laoe epaulettse is another form
in which lace is TO be extensively used,
and this conforms to the general de-
sire for the military effect.
The wild extravsgAncGs OF the paAA
few seasons are to be continued and
extended In these ways Whether we
Ike 1t or not Is a question we can all
answer better when the season is over
and We have seen the full effect of the
present tendency Of the modes.
