FOCAL GOVERNMENT,

Governor Hughesis idea of good government
70 that il should begin at the bottom. not at the
top. He has no patience with the notion that
local units of government can let things shift
for themselves, that there can be q good nat
ured acquiescence in the bad management Of
some local "Bill" or "Tom" because ''Bill" or
Tom" is entitled to the indulgence of neighbor-
liness. and that when things get to a bad pass
then q rush may be made 70 Albany for some
special legislation TO help. The Governor is the
persistent foe OF special local legislation His
theory is that each community should work out
its own salvation He said TO his old neighborS
at Sandy Hill:
Fundamentally the great thing is local gov
eminent The place to look primarily in order
70 secure good government and good admins
trstion is at your own home. IT is principle
Of administration that you want to have done
locally ali that you can get done locally and as
little done away from home Is necessary to
the way to have good government, and there
fore. 10 the extent of my ability during the leg
fslatfve session aimed to refer to local COM
munities the matters which should be within
their exclusive control
Fundamentally the great thing is local gov
ernrnent" 1t is the government that goes on
right before the eyes OF the voter. If the voter
does net take the pains TO see that his local
government is all right he will never contribute
much to the cause Of good government in the
state and In the nation Good government, like
charity, begins at home. If the things that 90 on
before voters eyes do not rouse his civic pride
and interest his civic spirit the things that go
on five hundred or thousand miles away viii
not appeal 10 him oftener than on Election DAY.
The larger units Of our governments were not
organized as panaceas. They have their place
and their function, but these are not TO cure the
evils ot local administration which proceed from
otiose and Indifferent citizenship. There is too
much rushing to Albany and 10 Washington.
Bota centres Of government have their duties
and functions. and they are complicated enough
without the added burden of questions that good
cattssnship ough. to solve locally. II the states

THE MOORISH PRETENDER.

In declining TO pay any attention 10 the preten-
sions Of Muley Hafld to the Shereef1an throne.
That Muley Abdul Aziz is Sultan dc jure there
can be no question. and he is still much more
de facto sovereign than his half brother-though
both Of them put together probably do not exert
as much actual authority as some unnamed
brigand In the Riff or Atlas. 1t is true that
Abdul Aziz was not the firstborn son of Muley
Hassan, but then neither was Hafid, though the
latter is the elder Of the two. But there is no
law Of prmogeniture In Morocco. Each Sultan
has the right to designate bis successor from

BETTER WORK IN CUBA

The outbreak Of yellow fever In Cuba is de-
clining end will doubtless soon be thing or
the past It Is now confined to the one city OF
Cienfuegos. and how 1t comes to exist thefe
was explained In our correspondence re"
days ago Various Cuban municipalities nave
been more or less neglecful OF sanitation, put
Cienfuegos has apparently been the worst sin-
ner of all, and now it is paying the penalty
or. rather, the non-immune visitors are pay
ing it
There is however. much that is reassurlng IN
tha yerifcation of our forecast concerning the
change in sanitary control Of the island 1t was
intimated in our correspondence that Governor
Magoon might transfer that Control from the
local municipal officers to the genera govern
mept This he has now done, the decree to that
effect having been signed on Monday. AS we
have already suggested this is loglcai
and convenient arrangement since the centrai
government of the island is responsible TO tne
United States for all sanitation The Platt
amendment provides:
C5l That the government of Cuba will exc
cute and as far as necessary extend, the plans
already devised other plans to be mutualIE
agreed upon, for the sanitation or the cItles VI
the island to the end that a recurrence OF ep-
fdernic and infectious diseases may be pre-
vented, thereby assuring protection to the PEG
pie and commerce of Cuba. as weu as 10 th9
commerce of the Southern ports OF the United
States and the people residing therein.
Thus it is to the central government or Cupa
that the United States must look for fulhlment
of that agreement Perhaps II would have been
better had the cities done their duty or had the
central government been able to keep them up
to it. though we must doubt It. In so small and
homogeneous q country Cuba the work or
sanitation would seem naturally TO belong TO
the general government Certainly we may
expect II to prove easier for that government
TO do the work itself than to insure the salts
factory doing of 1t by the municipalities. SO
long as Governor Magoon is In authority there
will be no question as to the efficiency with
which the government fulfls its obligations,
and we may confidently hope that when be

GROUSE SHOOTING EXTRAORDINARY.
From The Dundee Advertiser.

Now that thousands OF sportsmen are busy once

At least record is pretty to remain un-
disturbed-that made nineteen years ago by Lord
Walsingham, who, with four guns and a couple

actual shooting time of seven hours and a half.
This feat, We believe, stands unapproached. al
though it is probable that Lord de Grey could beat

performances was that of Colonel Campbell, of
Menzies, who shot In day 222la brace OF grouse
over the dogs. while Lord de Grey is probably the
only man living who has accounted for over so 900
grouse. About thirteen years ago Mr.. Rimington-
Wilson's party of nine guns bagged 2,64S grouse.

TOWNS sulLr IN 4 DAY.
When 500 Houses Were Erected BE-
tween Sunrise and Sunset.

There recently died in London a
gentleman who was concerned in per-
haps the most notable instance OF
rapid town creation This was
George Chesterton Cornwell, one Of
the early pioneers of Australian col
onization in Victoria. 1t was half a
century ago that he went out to the
colonies to try his luck. He was
there at the time of the great gold
rush in Victoria, and took an active
part in the laying out Of Canvas
town, at Emerald Hill. THIS town
was literally built in a day Incred-
ible as 1t may seem, ample accom-.
mediation for $4,000 persons was pro-
vlded in the space Of 20 hours.
The town of Custer, named after
United States general in Colorado,
came into existence in single day.
1t consists of some 500 wooden
houses, all of which were constructed
between sunrise and sunset. Mate
rial was shipr ed in from factories
IN the state, whole sections of wooden
walls, beams, joists and roofs in two
pieces having been made from care
fully prepared plans and exact speci-
fications.
Each piece of each building was
numbered and laid in order near the
site 1t was to occupy, so that it could
be the more readily handled AS in
thn hni1fIino Of Kincr OAIavanNto
pie, all the pieces were made to fit
each other, the work of construction
being, therefore, only a matter of fit
ting the pieces together and driving
few spikes, The site had all been
cleared and leveled in advance, and
1000 men in addition to the settlers.
were engaged in the building of the
Gown. The largest of the houses was
a boarding house, which was two sto-
ries high, and shops were erected for
bakers, butchers and other trades
men.
In Oklahoma more than one town
sprang up in a day. Thomas City
was case in point. Indeed accord
ing to report, it came into being in
single afternoon. Within few hours
5000 persons were comfortably set
tied and business was set in motion
A newspaper was likewise printed and
circulated among the new community
and big birthday celebration was
held the following day.
Another Oklahoma "bOOm town.
which ran up like magic is Snyder
1t was born on Friday In anticipa-
ton of that interesting event thou
sands of people iocked to the place,
among whom were shop keepers, land
agents and many others who were
anxious to secure the best sites on
the natal day.
Until then nobody was allowed to
enter the town area At sunset on /
the Thursday Snyder was nothing but
a name, for it was minus houses, rail- |
way and inhabitants. But soon after |
sunrise next morning fully 10000 per-
SONS were on the spot. The town was
rapidly mapped out; the erection of
buildings was in progress; trains were
'unrfng: railway station had been
while two hotels, three
banks and a number of shops were
Zach doing quite brisk business.
