But all this is to be changed.
Men are working there every day
under plans for a Identification.
There is to be properly kept lawn
with clover and irrigation, in sea-
son. There are to be beds of flow
ers. There are to be people to care
for them like the door yard at the
best family home. Such at least is
the scheme as it is on paper. 1t
will be tragedy, as the Times has
often pointed out, if all the details
do not materialize.
Who is doing it? Newton Will
kins has hand in it. The street
committee of the city council is
factor. The whole city admins
tration smiles on the work. The
Coffee Club donated $40 for pur-
chase of flowers and plants to be
pnt in the beds. The Village I'm
provement Society appointed
committee to aid in the work. The
committee is Mrs. M. Elston Lee,
Mrs. Rose Selling and Mrs. John
Smith.
Let the good work go on. When
it shall once be in motion, the won.
der will be, why was it never done
before? Among other adornments
said to be promised, is cement
pavement on the west side of the
building. 1t should be put there,
and at once.

RURAL MAIL ROUTES
MUST HAVE GOOD ROADS.
Where Complaint is Made Roads Must
be Repaired.

Washington, May 1.-(Spec-
ial.)-In an effort to stimulate
the building of good roads, the
Postoffice Department is about
to adopt more heroic measures.
Hereafter, when complaint is
made by rural mail carrier
that a certain road is impossible,
the Department will endeavor
to have the local authorities re-
pair the highway promptly and
reconstruct it as TO drainage and
slope SO that 1T will be passable
at all seasons of the year. If the
local authorities turn a deaf ear
to the Departmental suggestions,
the privilege of rural free de-
livery will be withdrawn. 1t is
a severe punishment, but the
Federal authorities believe 1T
will result in a greatly improved
system of highways throughout
the country.

that Mr. Harman will be decided

and >nars and declares he will carry

decides against him, but there are
various remedies that can be applied

-PENNsYLvANIA is a fortunate
and prosperous commonwealth, with
less bitter poverty within her borders,
less real want and distress, than
might be found in any other state or
country under the sun. And yet
there Is distress which it should be
the study Of wise political economy
to relieve, and which does not look
well when viewed in contrast with the
spending Of six millions Of dollars for
the furnishing" Of a state capitol
building. A glimpse Of life in the
coal regions would hardly warrant
magnifcence at Harrisburg. At OPP
posite ends Of the state we have great
cities, situated upon rivers, which the
national government has been urgent
ly appealed to to make more navig-
able. 4 few Of those millions spent
for Furnishings" might have given
Philadelphia thirty foot channel to
the sea and opened better course for
river traffic at Pittsburg. A few of
those millions might have been much
better spent for good roads.

TOO MANY
PATRIOTS.

Our marines marched up and then
marched down again at Havana, our
consul and captain having failed to
take the cue which must have been
indistinctly wired to them to make n
demonstration without showing our
hand in the Cuban war. Everyone
understands that the Cuban govern
ment stands upon our support, though
the declaration of its independence be
vigorous. 1t is independent to a
certain degree; which degree is limited
by the Platt amendment, that allows
Us to intervene when the Cuban gov
ernment needs to be supported and we
want to support it.
1t was a judicious amendment, As
present events show. The Cuban
people, along with all of the South
American blood, are given to insurrec-
ton as the sparks fly upward, and
nothing can give stability to their
governments save an outside sustain
ing or an inside dictator, who can
command the force. The trouble al
ways IS that there are too many pa
triots and not enough in the hesh-pot
to 90 around among them. 1t is, in
deed, the same trouble we have with
our patriots here, the difference being
that the Cuban works with the ma
chete, while our patriots stuff the
ballot boxes.
President Palma evidently is not
of the stern stuff needed in the South
American men who rule Even with
our understood but unacknowledged
support, he is likely to fall down,
judging from his apparent request Cf
the commander of our warship of
personal guard ofthe score of marines,
who marched to his palace and were
then marched back again under wire
from Washington; that wisely under
stood that it was too small a force for
actual use, and that if our warship's
demonstration in Havana harbOr did
not keep the peace, we would need to
put an army there; as we very likely
may, if the stupid revolutionists do
not take to cover.

COAL co. SUES FOR S45O,OOO
Reliance Declares That Pennsylvania
Mined on its Lands.

Wilkesbarre, Sept. 1.-THE Reli-
ance Coal Company brought suit to-
day against the Pennsylvania Coal
Company for $3.50, 600 damages. The
plaintiff declares that the defendant
mined coal from lands that belonged
tn the Reliance Company.
This is the first time in the history
of the country where one coal company
has sued another in the courts for
money damages.

-IT Is claimed by the Philadelphia
coal dealers that anthracite costs them
$3.50 at the mines, and that the
freight from Schuylkill Haven is
Si.75 additional, making the net
price at Philadelphia s5.25. They
allege their expenses are from % to
80 cents more, owing TO the ordinary
expenses Of the yard, not allowing
anything for wastage or screening.
Some have to pay 25c commission to
statesmen. 30 that 500 per ton allows
the dealer a very small profit if he is
honest enough TO give full weight.
Then, again, often the winters sup
ply Is put away in the spring and the
dealer Is compelled to wait until fall
for his money. The price Of s1.50
for hauling a ton Of coal less than
hundred miles seems exOrbitant, and
Is greater than that on bituminous
coal two or three times as far away.
The Railroad Commissioners ought to
interest themselves in the problem.

The average American girl will

shortly to be married, will have a
wedding trousseau whose cost does not
exceed $3.50. 1t is all she cares for
or needs. Even some of that was
made by herself. All this is in ac-
cordance with the plain life to which
she has always been accustomed. But
she will be a model hausfrau, in spite
