In 1904 an Economic and Geologic Map
Of the State OF New York was prepared by
Dr.. MERRJLL. the present State Geolo gist
The map was beautifully engraved on copper
and indicated the distribution Of the geo.
logic formations Of the State as accurately
"a they could be shown at that time. I'm
fort unately, the State topographic surveys
were not then 50 far advanced that the
geologic data could be accurately laid down
on tho map. As sheet after sheet OF the
topographic map was later produced 1t was
found that the geologic formations had
been incorrectly placed, simply because the
geographical map on which geologic in
formation had been engraved was very
erroneous.
II this costly geologic map had been fairly
accurate, the plates would have needed only
revision to bring their Information down TO
the present time; but when the State Geol-
ogist was ready, few months ago. to pre-
pare the State geologic map Of 1901 he found
that the errors in the copper plates were so
numerous that the cost Of correcting them
would be nearly as great as that of the
original engraving SO the map Of 1894 was
laid on the shelf, and the new edition was
produced by the cheaper process Of photo
TYPOGRAPHY. 1t is expected that within the
next four or five years the topographic
survey Of the State will be completed; at
that time 1t will be worth while to engrave
the geologic map on copper. for information
relating 10 any part OF the State may then
be accurately placed on the map. lncom-
petent workmen are very costly

The University of Virginin. after adher-
ing for over eighty years to the plan Of
government devised by its founder. THOMAS
JEFFERSON, now decides to conform to the
practice OF other American universities
and to elect president. From the names
suggested for the otaoe 1t may be inferred
that it Is a business president that is
wanted
No doubt. the trustees Of the university
know best the needs Of the institution, and
1t may be that in the modern competition
in education 1t IL necessary to sacrifice in
dlvidual characteristics. An enlightened
despotism. more or less tempered by trustee
or overseer supervision, can accomplish
much In a short time from both the fnan-
cial and the educational points of view. as
Harvard shows. 1t is possible. therefore.
that tho change may bring immediate
prosperity to the University of Virginia.
AL the same. regret must be felt that
system devised by the great Democrat
with the deliberate purpose OF eliminating
the one-man power, system that has
proved efaciant and successful in Its schol-
arly results and In the character of the men
trained under 1t, should disappear in the
modern craving for uniformity and for
quick material gains.

Mr.. Roosevelt ON Roads.

Like Mr.. BRYAN, Mr.. ROOSEVELT ad-
dressed the National and international
Good Roads Convention at st. Louis. He
has sound opinions as TO tho value Of
good roads, and his pathetic reference
to the girl or boy who can't take turn
on bike, even to neighbours, because
of the road showed his usual thought
fulness for the farmer and tho farmers
family and the bicycle vote.
Could va feel safe in differing with
an historian of 30 much distinction, We
might question his assertion that the
influence of the nations which have not
been road builders has been evanescent.
Were tho Jews, for instance, or the
Greeks famous as road builders?
But We are far from wishing to make a
finical criticism Of Mr.. RoosEvELr's ex-
cellent remarks on roads Those re-
marks, however, suggest a curious re-
Election. Roads," be said. tell the
greatness OF nation Certainly roads
are ono mark of the material greatness
OF a nation. In this age, railways tell
that greatness much moro forcibly than
ordinary roads do. Railroads have a
vital connection with the trade and
prosperity Of the country.
Why Is Mr.. ROOSEVELT, whose eye
moistens at the thought OF the hired man
padding a bicycle through the mud. so
fierce against the railroads.

at THE SUN sone half-veiled prophecies

There is much sociology In beer, but very
little beer was put into these sociologists.
They went into ten-cent lodging house
where Prof BAILEY once studied soci-
ology. They went TO the Salvation Army
hotel. TO the joss house. tho Chinese
theatre. a dance hall, an opium Joint,
q Chinese restaurant. They were out as
early as dock, the very shank OF the
sociological evening. The next day they
visited Ellis Island. the Educational
Alliance and the University settlement,
whence the Hon. JAMES BRONSON REY-
NoLps burst upon the world Of politics.
They go back to New Haven with the
proud consciousness Of having gazed
into the subways Of life and sociology.
Yet lobster palaces, Raines Law hotels,
all-night restaurants, barrel houses,

terial still await their earnest research.
We have said that the town is fun Of
unconscious sociologists. Sociology is
so easy in spite Of it's hard name. The
great army of strangers within the gates
Is boarding sociological data every day,
and more especially every night. Sum-
ming Is sociology. Pacing the Rialto
is sociology. Incursions into the lower

ing drink is sociology. A fascinating
science. We should think that the Yale
men could become reasonably proficient
In 1t without the aid of Prof BAILEY.

The Barge-Canal Project.

To exhibit the more clearly the folly
of the characterization barge-canal prof.
ect, we have pointed out how far more
advantageous to the State would DO the
construction OF railroad along the bed
OF the present canal, but the Buffalo
Neus retorts. in substance. that for the
State to go into the railroad business
would be unreasonable and the perma-
nent employment of an army Of railroad
men by the State would be a useless
and dangerous piece of business.
Now, il it Ia inadvisable and improper
at this time for the State TO 60 into the
railroad business, it is still more mad
visable and improper for it to 60 into the
baree-canal business. II it is the proper
function Of the State to build and operate
at great cost a transportation line across
it's territory for the sole purpose of bring
ing Western grain to New York. the
cheapest and best way to accomplish the
purpose would be to build railroad in
the bed of the old canal rather than to
lay out and operate great, cumbersome
and inefficient barge canal. That is.
the absurdity OF the States going into
tho railroad business applies not less
to Tire barge-oanal project.
The more this barge-canal plan Is dis
cussed tho moro its true purpose Is made
apparent. It is scheme for taxing
enormously the whole people Of the State
in order to build up an artificial bust
ness in and around the thriving city Of
Buffalo. Here in New York. obviously
enough, the barge canal scheme stirs
no enthusiasm, and never will; and In
every other part Of the State, with the
exception of Buffalo, the job is looked on
as directed against the interests of the
people as q whole.
