Decline Of the Tramp.

We are not sure what our readers
In the country will say about 1t, but
according to the Bureau Of Statistics
of Labor there is a great falling off in
the census If tranins IN tbs State. On
May J, 1906, there were 500 of these
gentlemen Of the road within our boun.
daiies; on May 1 of the present year
only 378 could be found, which is, Of
course a decline of about SO per cent.
in their numerical strength. On this
showing the flee and airy profession
of hoboism seems to be on the down
grade.
The method by which the tramp
census was taken. is interesting, II not
conclusive. On the evening OF May
] the bureau had its agents in every
city and town in the Commonwealth
call at the almshouses, station houses,
wayfarers' lodges and similar places
In which traIn1s put up for the night
and take the statistics of the knights

found in hat way. but not all, by any
means, for May l was tot too inclem.
ent a season for snug beds in haymows
or even in sheltered woods out of
doors. Then. TOO, that keen instinct
for approaching trouble probably
steered many Il hobo away from the
towns and villages. where they may
even now be luxuriatins.
However. allowing for everything.
there is little doubt tlat the noble ar
my of tramps is cutting Massachusetts
from its itineraries. Perhaps it is on
account of a law passed by the last
Legislature unfeelingly stipulating
that cities and towns which provide
lodging for tranps and Migrants shall
require them, II physically able, to
perform labor of some kind in return
Tor the lodging and food furnished to
them" That is quite enough to dis
gust any self.respecting hobo.-Boston

GEN. WOOD May
GO TO PANAMA
SENSATION PROBLEM is
WORRYING THE PRESIDENT,
IT IS SAID.

WASHINGTON. July 15.-It is be-
liev"d here that IIesItent Roosevelt
may ask Major General Leonard Wood
to abandon his work in the Philip
pines and to do for Panama what he
Gid for Cuba, namely, rid II of yellow
fever ind establish sanitary conditions
to make Il possible for this country
10 build the Panama Canal. In all OF
tie s:eec' es that tie President has
been delivering since the resignation
OF Chief Engineer Wallace he dis
closed the unsatisfactory condition of
affairs at Panamu.. MIR. RI sevelt has
dwelt on the necessity and the GER
tainty of this country completing the
great work II undertook on the 18th.
mus. He has authorized the official
announcement within a day or two
that ine first work of the government
will be to make the zone healthy. Fol.
10 win: Immediately OIL this announce.
nient comes the glowing tribute which
he paid yesterday in an address that
he made before the Associated PLY.
%sicians of Long Island to the work
done in Cuba by General Wood. He
gave TO General Wood all the credit
for tlat great work, and added that
this country had never been able to
reward him in anything like the pro.
portion that services such as his would
have been rewadred in any other
county.
General Wood Is at present in this
country, having come here from the
Philippines to consult his physician.
Before he returns 70 the Philippines he
will visit the President at Oyster Bay,
and 1t is believed that at this inter.
view the President will ask General
Wood to undertake in Panama the
great work of sanitation that he ac.
complished SO successfully in Cuba. It
:" suggested that being a major gen.
eral, General Wood may object to as.
snminc a task that is not commensu.
rate with his high rank in the army.
Such an objection, however, is hardly
to lie expected from a man of General
Woods caliber, and besides 1t is
doubtful If President Roosevelt would
regard 1t even IL General Wood would
make 1t. To make Panama healthy
and thus lay che foundation for the
greatest work the American people
can hope to accomplish in this genera.
ton, II not in this century, will prob.
ably appeal 10 General Wood as a
task more worthy of his abilities and
his energy than shooting down Flip.
pino 'hishwaymer. Moreover, Presi.
dert Roosevelt has shown again and
again that lie can rise equal to n
difficulty that red tape and presidents
would create. If there is at present
no Office of position in the canal zone
to which a major general OF the Uni.
ted States Army can with propriety
be appointed, 1t will not take presi.
Gent Roosevelt long to create one.

Mr.. Balfour answered that the Brit
