Fine Boulevard at Exposition.

One of the objects of interna-
tional expositions abroad has been
TO leave permanent memorial of
the celebration. This is especially
true of the French Worlds Fairs.
The Trocadero Palace, the Hall of
Industry and the Alexander Bridge
will stand for centuries as memo
rails of the several expositions
which created them.
a far less spectacular. and vet
perhaps more valuable, reminder
will be left after the jamestown
Exposition has passed into history.
The South has not been noted for
good roadways; on the contrary,
1t has gained an unenviable fame
by its maintenance of bad roads.
In connection with the Ter-Centen-
nial the city and county of Norfolk
will combine forces and will CON
struct a model boulevard linking
Norfolk with the Exposition.
To the limits Of the city the ave-
nue. will be asphalted. The six
mile strcch from the city limits to
the Exposition grounds will be an
example of the most approved
methods of macadam road building.
The boulevard will be one hun
dred and twenty-five feet wide.
There will bc room for a double
track electric car line i'm the center,
and broad spaces ON either side.
1t will traverse a very picturesque
route, alongside and over streams
and through numbcrleSs small
groves. The rights of way have
been secured for the entire stretch.
and the route selected is the one
preferred by the Engineer Of the
Good Roads Bureau Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, at Washing
ton.
Automobiles may travel from
Norfolk to the Exposition Grounds
in twenty minutes with ease, and
observe the restrictions regarding
speed. The electric cars will take
no longer, and on such a perfect
roadway vehicles drawn by horses
will make excellent time.
One of the reasons for the Gov
erment's interest in this matter
relates to the transportation of
troops. Such bodies of soldiery as
will land at Norfolk will have either
to march or ride To the Exposition
encampment. A road of such
character as the Exposition Boule-
ward will enable them to march
easily, and thus a picturesque feat
ure will be added to the celebration,
for troops will come at frequent
intervals during the entire Exposi-
tion period. The President of the
United States was authorized 10y
Act of Congress To invite every
state to send Its militia to the EN-
position. He has already issued a
proclamation to this effect, and it
Is reasonably certain that most of
the states will accept. These reg
imentS of citizen soldiery will not
come all ut one time but so arrange
that one or more states will always
be represented in the United States
encampment.

Congress AdjOurnS.

The first session of the Fifty
Ninth Congress adjourned last Sat
urday, after an extremely busy, in
teresting, and, at times, violent,
session.
a glance over the important
Legislation provided for and defeat
ed will convince the most optimis-
tic observer that Senator TiIlman
was right in insinuating that too
many members of the Senate were
under the influence of the trusts
and corporations.
The measure which was designed
to prevent corruption in elections,
failed TO pass. The Republican
doodle bag" will be as plethoric
as heretofore.
The measure for Federal control
and supervision over life insurance
companies, failed to pass; and the
liberal use OF policyholders' money
as campaign contributions will
probably continue indefinitely.
