A Register representative during ten
days trip in central and northern New
Hampshire early this fall made it part
of his business to interview as many
persons as possible regarding the opera
ton of automobiles in that State. The
questions invariably propounded We're
Do your horses become reconciled to the
use of the highways by autos and do
the automobiles show a proper regard
for the rights of pedestrians and those
using horses on highways: The parties
interviewed were in Grafton, Belllnap
and Merrimack counties. In Grafton
county the parties talked with expressed
themselves as decidedly against the use
of the highways by autos. In Campton
village, Grafton county, the representa-
tive of this paper found dozen people
who were willing to testify to the II G.
rant abuse Of the rights of drivers of
horses and pedestrians by aUtoists. In
that town we were told that, at the
time OF the recent tour Of motorists who
were competing for the Glidden cup,
it was a most dangerous undertaking
to drive horse upon the roads. Be-
tween Plymouth and Campton George
Little, of the latter place, was driving
when he was suddenly confronted by a
motor car of the touring type. He told
the writer that he did not have time
to plan what he would do to avert a
disaster before his horse bolted went
into the ditch and climbed over a stone
wall, with the result that the buggy
was a total wreck. The autoist never
slackened the speed Of his car. In Ply.
mouth IL required the display of fire
arms by Deputy-sherifi Manson Brown,
one day last summer, to compel tour
ing automObilist to heed the speed regu-
lations which the town authorities al
most invariably call attention to by
pacards posted in conspicuous places
The writer was told, however, that only
the posted notices. calling attention To
the speed regulations prevented very
serious accidents. The autoists when
confronted by the officials of a town
and shown the printed warning of the
selectmen concerning the operation of
automobiles We're inclined to handle
their cars as the laws of the State pre-
scribes.

ing much less the lives of those who are
taxed to build and support town and
country roads.
A decision rendered not long since, by
Judge Wheaton of Pennsylvania, is of
great interest to inhabitants of country
towns, and also of considerable signifi-
canoe. 1t seems that the owner of an
automobile was refused the privilege of
driving his machine on a certain turnpike,
although he offered to pay toll. He
asked for "A mandamus to compel the
turnpike company to permit him to oper-
ate his automobile on that turnpike.
This request was refused by Judge
Wheaton, who stated that the managers
of highways, operated by private corpo-
rations have an undoubted right, in the
exercise of sound discretion, to prevent
such use of the highways as will make
them dangerous forthe general public.
The Judge believed that if such use were
made of the turnpike in question it would
be a menace to man and beast and give
automobiists monopoly of the road.
The turnpike in question was the prop
erty of an individual or company of indi
viduals. Most of the highways in New
England are the property of the towns in
which they are located They were
DullC anu kept Ill repair ny taxes IeVleu
upon the property of the taxpayers of
the town. 1t is the duty of the select
men of the town to see that the high
ways within its limits are safe for public
travel.
Have not the town officers equal
authority to prevent the use of
automobiles on the roads of their
town that the owners of a turn
pike have to forbid and prevent the
owner of an automobile from operating
his machine upon their turnpike: If the
town officers neglect to do that, and man
or beast suffers from an accident which
is caused by an automobile, either direct
ly, by the running down of an individual,
or indirectly. by the frightening of a
horse and overturning of a carriage, is
not the town liable for whatever damages
may result from such an accident:
This is a matter that should receive the
attention of every town at its coming
annual town meeting for the election of
officers. 1t would be well for every one
who suffers an injury from an automo-
bile, either to person or property, directly
or indirectly, to bring suit for damages
against the town in which such injury is
sustained and take the matter to some
court over which a Judge and lover of
justice presides.

awaiting him in response to a telegram
The proprietor of the livery stable was
in charge of the team and before he
permitted it to be taken in charge by
the writer satisfied himself that the
newspaper man had a vague plan in
mind as to what he would do should
he meet an automobile. In the town
of Hill, Merrimack county, every person
approached upon the matter of auto
mobiles unhesitatingly pronounced these
vehicles curse to those who would
Use the roads with horses. The writer
found that one reason for this decidedly
bitter feeling was that during the sum-
mer past one of the most prominent and
wellknown ladies of that village, &C
companied by her daughter a miss of
some dozen years, narrowly escaped
fatal injuries on account of meeting
a motor car in that town The buggy
was demolished and the occupants suf-
fered very severe injuries.
Another phase of the automobile
question was presented to the writer
during the trip above referred TO, that
the breeding of horses was a particularly
precarious undertaking 80 long as auto
mobiles were permitted to monopolize
the highways. In Danbury, we talked
with gentleman, representative syn
dictate of well-to-do farmers of that
section, who were considering the mat
ter of visiting certain points in Orange
county, Vermont, for the purchase of
breeding animals lit may interest Yer
monters to know that the parties were
contemplating the purchase of Morgan
horses, but the outlook did not seem
bright for these New Hampshire breeders
in view of the fact that the autoist,
with less capital invested, as compared
with those engaged in breeding horses,
uses the highways in a manner that
prevents the breaking and training of
horses thereon.

Before the work of cutting down the
expenses of the government printing
Office advances very far there will
probably be great change in the method
used by the various departments in
submitting copy to the public printer.
All sorts of people in the government
service, including many who are mex
perienced in the preparation of copy,
write reports and send them to the
government printing office They re-
ceive back the proofs and proceed to do
what capable writers would have done
before they sent their copy forward.
They make what they designate as
corrections but their work consists of
such vast number of changes that the
compOsitors do not undertake to correct
the proof at all. but reset the entire
matter.
1t is stated by men who are familiar
with the manner in which copy is pre-
pared for the government printing office
that the government is paying at least
$500, 900 annually for carelessness on the
part of government officials who do moi
prepare their reports so that they will
not have to be practically rewritten. 49,

In another column will be found a
partial list of accidents from automobiles
which have occurred in this country
during the last few days. Very recently
we We're visited by Mr.. Carl Stoeckel of
Norfolk, Conn, a gentleman of large
wealth, who with his wife has ju-t re-
turned from tour in Europe. Mr.
StOeckel has no more sympathy with
automobiles using highways built for
other purposes, than has Mr.. Warner

they went over one Of the Swiss passes
of the Alps; that the day before stage
drawn by five horses. and carrying be-
tween twenty and thirty passengers. in
crossing met an automobile when the
horses became unmanageable, plunged
down a precipice OF over four hundred
feet, and every person upon the outside
was killed, and all within very seriously
injured.
We knolc that a similar accident is
liable to occur at any moment to stages
on our mountain passes, as from Middle
bury to Hancock: Brandon to Rochester
or Rutland to Pittfield. But we think
that before another summer all Of these
towns will follow the lead taken by
numerous towns similarly situated in
New Hampshire and some other States
and posts their roads against their being
used by automobiles.

In appointing the seven new canal
commissioners the president followed
the letter of the law, it Dis true, but so
much cannot be said as to his following
the spirit Of that law also. In fact he
has come as near going directly in face
of it as he could without also violating
its letter. He was very anxious for the
last congress to pass the pending bill
r~eOrganizing the commission and reduc-
ing the number of commissioners to
three. Congress having failed to act
upon this measure the president has
come as near carrying out some of its
provisions as he could without going
directly counter to the provisions of
the law at present in force. In ap-
pointing the new commissioners he des-
iGnated the duties of the different
members of the board and so arranged
them that really three of them have all
the authority. 1t is now virtually a
board of three commissioners.

nee, as heretofore has been the rule
with them. For the negroes sake we
