Winter Snakes.

The last days of December ought 10
find snakes asleep IN their winter

habit of reptiles to seek their hibernat-

there until the warm days Of spring
rouse them from their torpid state.

EMIGRATION FROM GREECE.

In communication from Athens
Consul General Horton writes that
Greece is badly afflicted with the emf
grafton fever and presents figures
showing the enormous increase in emf
grafton from that country to the
United States during the last decade
Mr.. Horton has found that in 1897 Just
81 Greeks emigrated to the United
States. In 1905 the total was upwards
Of 10000. and for the fiscal year 1906
it was 23.127. The government of
Greece is considering means for re-
stricting immigration, it being appar-
ent that IL the present rate is main
tanned the country will eventually be
depopulated.
The minister Of war reported re-
Gently that he was able to enlist only
5000 men out of call for $1,000. The
fields are going untitled in many places
and in others the greatest difficulty is
experienced in securing enough labor
ers to harvest the crops. On the other
hand, it is reported that every Greek
that comes to this country intends I'LL
timately to return TO his native land
and live at ease during the remainder
of his life on the savings accumulate ted
here. They are sending money back
home now at the rate of $1,000. 900 a
year. according tc the postmaster gen.
eral of Greece.
Now all this tends to show that the
United States should cooperate with
Greece in any movement tending to re-
strict immigration into this country
from that. II has often been contended
that the Greek is not desira BILE immi-
grant: AS Mr.. Horton says, he does
not intend to become a citizen of the
United States, in the sense of living
out his life here. He comes solely for
the purpose Of gathering money enough
TO return TO Greece on. He spends lust
as little as ne can, living in vile quar-
tiers, eating the cheapest foods. paying
little or no attention TO ordinary rules
of cleanliness.
VIC refer, of course to the average
Greek laborer. Some of the Greeks
are intelligent above the average and
Did fair TO make good cvitizens. But
the average Of intelligence and citi-
zenship is very low indeed. This coun-
try could get along very well without
them, as it could get along without the
swarms of other immigrants from the
south of Europe Our immigration
regulations should be made more
stringent year by year. We welcome
intelligent, industrious foreigners and
we will always welcome them. but our
gates should be closed to the barbar-
ians.

THoMPsoN's TRANCE.

In a moment of generosity The Her
aid assumed yesterday that the Amer
lean" administration had walked UP a
little and would get action on public
works so long delayed. This wild hope
was aroused by the passage of an or
dinance on Monday night which was
intended to facilitate work and enable
the people to get sidewalks, sewers and
other Improvements paid for long ago,
but not yet completed.
Unhappily, The Herald overlooked
the mayor in its calculations-and
right there it busted the watermelon.
Ezra doesn't like the hurry ordinance
for several reasons. In the first place,
ne is opposed to precipitate action on
anything. This sidewalk business, for
instance, has hung fire for about two
years. The people who paid for side
walks in 1905 are getting a little fussy
about the delay; they think that even
an American" council ought to get
sidewalks laid within year or two of
the time the money is collected. Ezra,
NAL trance is still working. and he pro-
poses to stop the wild rush if the veto
power is worth anything.
Again. Ezra objects to the new ordi-
nance because IL curtails Jake Raleighs
powers and enlarges the city engineers
sphere. The Herald confesses to some
qualms about the city engineer and his
methods: but as compared with Raj
eigh, the engineer is a marvel of celer-
ity, a paragon of all the virtues
Kelsey does get things done OCCASION
ally; Raleigh, never.
Kelsey has been known to work;
there is no record extant of the day or
hour when the street supervisor was
caught laboring.
Kelsey does know something about
his business, whereas such knowledge
as Raleigh may have-if he has any.
has been most carefully concealed.
The city engineers department has
come mighty close to being an annex
of Pat Moran's contracting business
but even at that it is a credit to the
administration as compared with the
disgraceful incompetency, the utter
disregard of public interests, the vic
ious alliance of the street department
with the personal welfare of it's head.
which have been its only characters
tics.
Naturally, Thompson might have
because Ezra never picked live one"
in his life, and if he had he wouldn't
have known it,
Sadly, with tears and signs. it must
be admitted that The Herald was too
sanguine when it predicted a resump-
ton of activity in Improvements. for
the city. 1t forgot Ezra and his love
for Raleigh, but it promises never to
forget either of them again for long.

Never have the people Of Kentucky,
and especially of Ohio county, had
the subject of good roads Tor bad
roads, brought more forcibly to their
attention than during the present win
ter. Bad roads have caused more
trouble, inconvenience and expense
than ever before. And the matter
will get worse, as the years go by,
if remedy is not applied. There is a
strong sentiment prevailing in favor
of State aid for country roads. Other
States are doing it-why not Ken
lucky? Instead of reducing the tax
rate-as will probably be done by
the next Legislature-why not let it
remain as 1t Is and use the surplus
in piking country roads? Why cannot
the counties and the State go into
partnership and begin the building
of good pixies?

ASH WEDNESDAY
Is Fixed by Easter, Which This
Year Will be Observed
on March 81.

Many people ask how Ash Wednes-
day Is fixed
Since the establishment of the Cath.
Ollie church, nineteen centuries ago
Ash Wednesday is fixed forty days
before Easter, and Easter is always
the first Sunday following the full
moon that comes Immediately after
the vernal equinox.
This year the full moon appears
March 20, and the Sunday following
March 81, the Christians of all creeds
celebrate as the anniversary of the
resurrection of the Savior
The time intervening between Ash
Wednesday and Easter Sunday is call
ed Lent, and tradition has it that it
Is so called because in early days of
Christianity the fast and abstinence
was more rigorous than in modern
times, and the faithful lived ON veg
etable called lentil.
Every day in Lent, except Sunday
is a fast day, and even on Sundays
the Catholic church forbids its chill
dren to eat fish and flesh meat at the
same meal
Every Wednesday and Friday in
Lent are days of abstinence from
meat, and the second and last Satur.
day in Lent are also days of absti.
nence.
Lent is a time of penitence, Of
fasting and prayer commemorative Of
the 40 days that the Savior tasted in
the desert before He began His pub
JIG career as a teacher of mankind
