AUTOS DAMAGE TIE ROADS.
Injury Already pcrs In Massachusetts
Estimated at s5o,ooo.

ut Is bard to say what will be the
ultimate damase to the roads" said
member OF the Massachusetts commits
sion to q representative OF the Boston
Globe: "but 1t has recently been e5u-
mated by the board that $4,000 dam
age has been done already by autcs.
This is small in proportion to the
cost of the roads, but unless some new
method OF applying surface is adopted.
the damage is likely 10 be continuous;
that is. repeated as fast as II Is made
good. There is something about the
broad rubber tires. on wheels OF small
diameter. peculiarly damaging TO ma
cadam roads. A vacuum Is created
by the tire, which sucks the surface,
or binder, from the road. and 1t Ia
blown away. leaving the stones CT
posed. The commission Is eNperf-
mentlng with tar surfaclng, which has
been used in France successfully. ES-
periments have also been made by tho
park commissioners with an oil hav-
ing an asphalt base. Something new
must be adopted, and have no doubt
Massachusetts will not be behind in
Its adoption"

 Hurry up.i boys!" cried the Ruler. Christmas is over and if we aren't back in our chest before thu last stroke of twelve we'll be lost. Quick"
 And such a scramble as there was. Hammer. Awl, Saw, Mallet and Jack Plane-everyone of the industrious workers. almost falling over each oth- CT in their mad race for safety, scam pered home at as lively a rate as their little legs would permit, and when the last stroke of the hour sounded were stored safely away in their chest. and lying so still that anyone not familiar with what they had been doing all the evening would have supposed they had been asleep for hours.
 The next morning Jimmieboy looked out upon the lawn for a sight of the little house, but it was nowhere to be seen. The drifting snows had covered the whole spot ten or twelve feet in depth. and later, when the thaw came and the snow disappeared the little house had disappeared with 1t, and what was more. the nursery floor was back again where it belonged.
 Did you put that floor back? asked Jimmieboy in a whisper to the Saw the next time he had him in hand. But the Saw said never a word-just seem ed to smile pleasantly through his bril- liantly shi ming teeth. The fact is, don't believe that except under the magic spell of Christmas the tools in Jimmieboys chest are ever able to speak a word, and even then they must be creatures of more than ordinary sharpness. In any event Jimmieboy has since taken a greater interest in them than he ever took before. takes the best care of them and has fully re- solved when the spring comes to get them to help him in building little house for himself

Summary Of Ebents as They Happen
Aliens Should Not Vote.

Aliens Should Not Vote.
At Norfolk, before the Virginia
Bar Association, John R. Dos Passos,
well known New York lawyer, de-
clared that the last century Of po-
litical life in America had developed
two great defects in the working of
the government; first, the indiscrimi-
mate admission Of foreigners to cit
izenship, with suffrage, and, second,
the abnormal increase in the number
of representatives. in the lower houses
of the Federal and state assemblies.
Characterizing the naturalization
laws as a distinct innovation upon
the true conception of citizenship in
democratic government, he said
"However necessary, nay, inevita-
BILE, in our early national life, the
naturalization laws have more than
performed their mission; they have
become dangerous menace to the
nation. The time has come, it seems
to me, when the gates of the United
States should be shut to indiscrimi-
nate citizenship, carrying with it the
right to suffrage. We must begin to
establish a real American union of
Americans only, fully imbued with
true American principles.
II did, at one time, indulge in a
dream Of interchangeable citizenship
between this and all other countries
where the English law and the En-
glish language govern. believe such
a step would insure absolute peace
and advance the interests Of Christi
anity and civilization. So long as
this thought, however, hovers around
the world as an unrealized dream, I
would strengthen and solidify the
American natien. If immigration
must be encouraged, invest the immi-
grants with citizenship; but without
the right to suffrage. The right to
vote and citizenship are separable.
"By no fault of the founders of
our government, through the admis-
sion into our political body of a vast
multitude of persons as citizens, in
competent and neglecting properly to
exercise the right of suffrage, and
through the increase in the number
Of legislators in the lower halls Of
the house of representatives, univer-
sal suffrage and a representative de-
mocracy must to some extent be held
as failures, and to greater extent
responsible for the lawless tenden-
cies of the age. The halls of legis-
latiOn are overworked, just as they
were at Athens when pure democracy
existed. Our legislators do not
breathe the proper atmosphere of
lawmakers, the quality and know
ledge of the representatives have
diminished. The houses Of represen-
tatives are run by cabals and COM
mittees "

out of business. The suit is brought
against E. l. DuPont-de Nemours 6
Co., the E. I. DuPont-de Nemours
Powder Company, Of New Jersey;
twenty-four other corporations and
seventeen individuals.
The government asks that these
companies be enjoined from engaging
in interstate commerce and that re-
ceivers be appointed to take over
their business. The government asks
also that control of certain capital
stocks in other companies by the va
rious holding companies shall be ad-
judged unlawful and void and that
the defendants shall be restrained
from carrying on alleged unfair COM
petition against twenty-six indepen-
dent firms, which at the time Of the
filing Of the petition were engaged in
the manufacture, shipment and sale
of blasting powder and dynamite in
the United States in lawful compe-
tition with the defendants.
Johnson Named Senator.
Joseph F. Johnston was unanimous
ly nominated in joint caucus Of the
Democrats of the two houses at
Montgomery. composing all but two
of the entire membership of the ig-
islature, to succeed the late Senator
Pettus in the United States Senate,
his time to run to 1915. Mr.. John
stCn was twice governor of the state,
and once ran against the late Sena-
tor Morgan for the senate.
Taft Endorsed.
Senator Foraker's address to the
Republican party through his open
letter to Committeeman C. B. Me-
Coy, and Senator Dick s appeal to
his friends in the Republican State
Committee not to adopt a resolution
indorsing Secretary Taft for presi-
dent, fell on deaf ears, and the Ohio
State Committee by vote of rs to
6 adopted such a resolution at CO.
lumbus.
The resolution as offered by Sen.
ator Overturf read:
"We declare that The Republicans
ity of the people of Ohio, convinced
of the high character, great ability
and distinguished services Of Secre-
tary Taft, indorse his candidacy for
the presidency; and, further,
''We declare that the Republicans
of Ohio overwhelmingly desire that
the name Of William Howard Taft
be presented to the nation as Ohio's
candidate for president, and that the
Republicans of other states are invit-
ed to cooperate with the Republi-
cans of Ohio to secure his nomina-
tion in 1905"
When Senator Foraker learned of
the action of the Republican State
Committee he gave out this state
ment:

A. ..zz..1k QooI.-a. L.
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-08-08

how often he illustrated the princi-
Piles Of the New Testament by means
Of the human hand.
1.-THE church should take active
steps to cure the physical and men
tai as well as the religious ills of the
people. The Church s neglect of this
vital work cannot be remedied too
soon. It has neglected its most i'm
portant functions.
AS a further and great cause of
social unrest, there comes that mon
strous profusion and extravaganza Of
expenditure which | am at times in
clined to consider the worst note of
our American civilization.
"A friend of mine, a lawyer Of
New York, went into the mayors
Office during Tweed s administration.
A large diamond stud dropped on the
floor and rolled toward him. He
picked it up and turned to one Of the
gentlemen in the room-it would be
invidious to mention their names,
they are all dead-'Did one of you
drop this?' No. was the reply, but
one Of them hitching up his vest, said
'Yes, it is one of my suspender but
, tons.
''This was twenty-five years ago,
and conditions are worse instead Of
better. In such conditions of social
life you have come very close to the
origin of a great deal Of social un-
rest.
AS I grow older I am more and
more profoundly convinced that the
impatience of the masses comes
more from the abuse of wealth than
from any other cause. Many of us
who claim to be Christ's disciples
are guilty in this particular. We fail
to set the pace for the community
in which we live by our own habits. 4"
Holy War to Begin.
The French Charge d'Affairs at
NTangiers, Morocco, has been present
ed with evidence to the effect that
the slaughter Of Europeans in Casa
blanca was instigated by Arabs who
preached Holy War Of extermina-
ton against foreigners.
Appeal Recount Decision.
Mayor Mcclellan, of New York
City, and John 7. Dooling, Charles
B. Page, John Mcclure and Rudolph
C.. Fuller as Commissioners of Elec-
tions, yesterday fled notices of ap-
peal from the ruling Of the Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court in
regard to the recount of the votes
cast at The mayoralty election. Both
notices are directed to Justice Charles
w. Dayton of the Supreme Court,
who made the adverse ruling, and all
his brother justices.
In his appeal the mayor again asks
for a writ of prohibition preventing a
recount.
