The State of New York has recently
enacted statute known as the "cobble
stone law which provides that the
overseer or HIGHWAY commissioner shall
cause all loose stones lying in the beat
Ell track of any highway within his
district to be removed once in every
month, from the first day of April until
the first day of December-such stones
not to be thrown into the gutter or into
the grass bordering the highway. The
law also forbids the throwing of ''ashes,
paper, stones, sticks. or other rubbish"
upon highway, and fixes a definite
penalty for violations. Maine-and
every other State-ought to have just
such a law. Here we are fortunate if the
loose stones are removed from street
once in a season, to be left in heaps by
the roadside or thrown into the gutter;
and often even that is not done. AS for
throwing rubbish into the streets, nine
runaway accidents out of ten are caus-
ed by waste paper blowing about; and
there certainly should be some penalty
for thus endangering life and property.
This question of the roads is one that
should receive more attention from the
public. and from the lawmakers, than
has heretofore been accorded it. More
money is wasted in this direction than
in any other public expenditure, and
the need for and advantage of good
roads have never been fully understood
or appreciated There is urgent need
for reform in the methods of making
and maintaining our roads, and the
enactment of Il law similar to the New
York statute above quoted would be a
move i'll the right direction

There is a growing impression that
the coal trust not only was the cause
of the strike, but is responsible for it's
continuance. BY the suspension Of
mining and the using up of the stock
on hand a coal famine will De brought
about III which the trust will recoup it's
losses at the public expense. Every
industry which depends upon coal for
fuel is menaced by this attitude of the
trust. 1t may involve the shutting
down OF many factories, throwing thou
sands of people out of employment;
and unless production is speedily re-
sumed, and prices lowered, the result
will be that many will perish from cold
the coming winter. AT the old rates
the price paid by the poor, who must
buy in small quantities, has been ex-
orbitant under existing conditions.
If there was ever case in which the
strong arm of the Government should
be interposed in behalf of the people it
ia this. If necessary, we believe the
situation would warrant taking possess
sion of the mines by the Government,
and operating them for the benefit OF
the public. 1t would not be too severe
a punishment to fit the crime should

The Coal Trusts Profit.

When it is remembered that before the
strike the price of anthracite was $3.50 a
ton, and that since the many millions of
tons-how much of the total annual an
thracite output of about $4,000, OCO tons no one
can tell-have been sold at all prices from
$3.50 to 50, the added profits of the opera ors
can be guessed at. At an average price of
$50 a ton the added profits in addition to
the normal profit on only one-sixth of a
Years output, which is 100000 tons, would
be $3O,OCo,( 70. And it is safe to say none of
the increased profits go tc the retailer,
but into the Golfers of the Coal Trust.-New
