The speed is not so great that the
scenery cannot be leisurely enjoyed;
the sweet fresh air blows cinderless
upon the face, and the right of way is
not charred and blackened-as when
nature spreads a bit of mourning along
the tracks for the birds that the
screaming locomotive has frightened
away, for the noble trees that have
been cut down. and the railroads broad
band Of ugliness. The clean. light
trolley is taken to natures heart The
wild flowers creep UP to the track, the
grain mods friendly greeting to the car

has passed the birds light again on the
wire to talk the matter over ana to
discuss the merits of that strange new
singer. the little trolley wheel. which
fearlessly skins along the wire above
the car, singing as il goes.
But best of all. the trolley is demo-
cratic. It is for all the people. The
roads live not through the few travel
ers who take long journeys. but
through the millions of travellers who
take little journeys. The true signifi-
canoe of the lengthening lines IS IN the
Increased number Of centers which
they touch and the greater variety OF
trips. of various short lengths, that

Trolley Travel.

Not little by little. but with mighty
strides. the trolley is spreading its
meshes over the country. The lines
extending in all directions from the
cities meet local lines and so reach
further until. in the closing of the
ever-shortening breaks. trunk lines
are suddenly established. Philadelphia
is now to be Joined to New York by
trolley; New York joins Boston, and
the trolleys of Boston run to the utter
most parts Of Cape Ann. Prestoi The
Philadelphia can journey by trolley
to Gloucester and to where cool
breeezs sweep over Norman's Woe.
The trolley. with all its progressive
ness, means a reaction. and with all its
up-to-dateness is a return to nature.
It takes US into the fields and among
the flowers, through narrow woody
ways where the trees meet overhead

Here is a comment from the Well

ton board:
ut is possible that each of these
cases was decided on 1.-The law and the
evidence" but the action of Coleman
and Rurrow goes a long way toward
rebutting this presum 2tion. They are
certainly giving color to the claim
made By the adherents of Curtis and
BoWersock from the start that they
would win because the members Of
the contest board belonged to their
faction OF the party If this be the
basis OF the decision rendered, there
are thousands OF ReDub licans in the
state who Will do their best to see
that these individuals never have Ru-
ture opportunities to made decision Of
this character.
1--WE believe Messrs. Coleman and
BurroW are making a serious mistake
in refusing to give the faith that is
within them" These contests have
become matters of interest all over
the state. Very few people, outside Of
their respective districts. care which
of the contesting parties win but they
do want TO know whether these nom
nations are handed out by the con
test board TO their fractional partisans
in the party, simply because they are
such or whether the facts and the law
justify these decisions And this con-
test board might as well understand
that its mem bershiD does not stand so
high as to be above suspicion Of max
ing these decisions for purely faction
