street paving foundations. They have
become efficient by long experience and
the mixing Of concrete has been put
upon scientific basis by the city en-
gineer's department.
Material is often bought under con-
tract and often purchased in tho open
market. Manufactured cement is now
used exclusively in all concrete MIX
lures used by the city. It has been
furnished this year under contract for
$1.49 a barrel. In the old days the
price on this commodity was prohibl
tive, compelling the uEe Of natural c.
ment. Crushed tsone is furnished by
the crushers located in this city at 81
per yard at the crusher. The city en-
ploys teams for hauling it to the
work. Sand 10 also furnished under
contract.
These three materials are then mixed
according to the formula prescribed by
the city engineer. There is no de-
Waiting from it, as there might be in
case it were done by a contractor who
desired to use less costly material. The
proportions used by the city are one
part cement, three parts sand and sew
en- parts crushed rock.
City Pays We'll.
A better clas sof labor Is originally
secured by the city engineer. Con-
tractors usually pay $1.75 for a nine or
a ten-hour day, while the city pays
10 cents more for but eight hours. Yet
the cost Of improvements is maintained
at minimum. Paving has been done
just as cheaply here as anywhere and
with the exception Of asphalt pavement
which necessarily was laid under con-
tract, the city's paving is first class.
Officials Of other cities often come

| Of investigating the methods employed
by the city engineer and they always
go away with the determination to put
1t itno practice in their home cities,
Unfortunately, the power Of the con-
| tractors in many Of these cities is too
great to admit Of any such departure

Time has demonstrated that the peo-

later were victims of unnecessary
fear. Mr.. Fits is not the kind OF a

office. Under his direction. as attor-
new general, the states legal business
has been promptly and efficiently ex-
.ecuted and the benefit wrought Is not
transient but will be lasting IN the
high standard set for the new state
Office.
The Mortified News says OF Mr.
Fits and the attorney generalship:
No better lawyer could have been
chosen to demonstrate the value Oh
such an office in Vermont.
The Montpelier Journal says:
The attorney generalship in Yer,
mont will never be termed a poiliCa'

office follow in the path blazed by
Attorney Fits. - His exls-

he does well with his Whoie

an honor to the new Office and has al

The New Prison Warden.

The national prison congress re-
Gently held at Lincoln. Neb., decided
that the improvement of the wardens
is the greatest advancement made In
American prison administration dur
ing the past twenty-five years.
This is the description which the
Boston Transcript gives of the new
warden approved by the congress and
prominent in the proceedings of the
gathering:
The new warden is masterful but
quiet type of man and who is an alien
and stranger to the principles ana
practices of brute force. The new
warden believes in rigid but kindly
discipline. Recognizing that external
pressure must be brought to bear
upon convicts. he also recognizes that
external pressure alone, unless sup
plemented by ethical considerations,
by new motives and by inducements
TO sustained good conduct. <pvithers
and shrivels its subjects. He seeks TO
throw helpful influences around the
prisoner. tries to appeal to his intel
ligence and aims to convince him that

tality except to despise H. he studies
