Edward j. Wood, late Democratic can.
didate for council, seems to nave been
placed in light by short editorial in
the Telegram that did him an injus.
tiee. 1t appears that some of his en-.
thusiastic friends made a house to mouse
canvass of the ward, or at least that Is
the general information of the Rcpub.
lican workers in THAT ward, and that he
did not do so himself 1t is farther
stated that he made no promises except
to do all he could for improvements in
the fifth waHl, if ne we're elected to
council. 1t was reported that he prom
ised to build new sidewalks and make
the streets better, but he says that he
made no promises whatever except to
look after the interests of the ward and
get all he could for it. There is an i'm.
preston that an effort was made by tic

but such was not the case, al what wa
said was merely on information and was
not written with view to doing Mr..
Wood nm injustice. lie is splendid

an excellent councilman and no one

Duties of Supervisors.

In recent case before the Franklin
county court Judge Stewart made a
comprehensive statement as to the duty
of township supervisors in the matter
of keeping the public roads in order. 1t
is the duty of supervisors, declared the
Judge, to keep the roads in good con
dition without fear of consequences,
either political or otherwise. They are
not TO be deferred from that duty be-
cause the performance OF II might
necessitatc an increase Of taxes. The
office OF supervisor Is no sinecurc, but
"a good supervisor has sufficient power
to put his township under obligations
to him for the good service he may per-
form by building roads that shall be
what the law intends them to be-"
In commenting on the above the
Philadelphia Press remarks
"Notoriously, however, the super
visors in a great majority Of cases do
not come anywhere near keeping the
roads In order. II is less their fault
generally than that Of the people Of the
township. Instead Of making them
selves popular by compelling the con
structon of good roads, the supervisors
are in much more danger Of making
themselves exceedingly unpopular.
There is small chance that some of
them would be continued IN office, no
matter how efficient they were or how
excellent the roads they nude, If In
their efforts they increased the taxes
paid for the purpose. The chief reason
the state has so long put up with
wretched roads is found in preference
OF the people forsuch a condition rather
than pay few dollars Of additional tax.
This is not the fact in all townships
but IL Is true Of the most OF them
throughout the state. Many miles Of
good roads have been constructed in
some counties, and the people have
been willing to pay for them, and have
appreciated the advantages to be had
from them, but generally there has
been great Indifference. 1t was for
this reason that the state took up the
matter and provided for state aid and
supervision. Even this has been an
tagonized by the people in many sec
tions, who are afraid of little expense.
The only remedy for this is time and a
few samples of good roads.
Meantime, II the courts get after
the supervisors some good may be ac-
complished. These officials cannot. OF
course, expect to neglect every obliga.
tion. They must keep the roads in
order, even If the taxpayers complain
