SpoiIs to the Victors.

BOSTON, Mass, March 5.-Mayor
John F. Fitzgerald has made good a
promise to the effect that Boston, be-
ing a democratic city, SHOULD have
none but democratic officials, and his
list of appointments given out this
week shows that among the victOrs
have been divided the spoils. Several
who have held office for
years under both parties have been
removed to make room for Fitzgerald
supporters, and naturally there has
been a protest from the Independents.
The most glazing instance of this was

unconstitutional, Perry Gould, presi-

latest organizations in Spokane.
Opticians of that city have formed
an association which is intended to
cover all the territory east of the Cas-
cades in this state as we'll as in north
ern Idaho. A constitution and bylaws
were adopted, and the following offic
ers were elected: President, w. H
Broaddus, of the Standard Optical
company; vice-president, w. A. Wat
son, of the King Optical company
secretary, J. Clark Watson; treasurer
H. B. Vinton.
The purpose Of the organization, &C
cording to the constitution, is to pro
mote the social, intellectual and pro
fessional welfare of the members. One
real object of the association at this
time is to organize for the purpose OF
bringing concerted action before the
next state Legislature to have a law
passed such as the one now in force
in oregon and California whereby op
ticians are compelled to pass a rigor
Gus examination before they can prac
tice in the state.

Now that country roads are in
fairly good shape for travel it appears
that the argument for hard roads
has subsidized. This should not be.
Now is the proper time to build up
the country roads so that they may
be passable in the fall and winter
months. Farmers, as well as towns
people, should act in unison in seeing
to it that our roads are placed in bet
ter condition, and the work should
be accomplished in the spring and
early summer so that they will be in
proper shape when the bad seasons
come on. Don't let this matter de-
