The big cities OF the United States
have nearly all forced the electric light
and telephone companies TO put their
wires under ground" said Mr. G. N.
Gest, a prominent electrical engineer Of
New York City. who is here TO attend
the convention.
AT the outset the companies objected
bitterly to the laws requiring them to
put their wires under ground, but now
they are quite reconciled to such action,
for the reason that II saves them money
in the long run. The first cost Of the
subterranean conduits is greater than
stringiug on poles, but when the material
is once laid below the surface. It IS there
TO stay. and all expense Of maintenance
is saved. Even in the smaller cities and
towns there is a great movement in
progress for putting the wires under
ground, and my belief is that IL will be
only few years until that will be the
common practice.
THE longest continuous stretch Of
underground conduit is between New York
and Philadelphia, which the long distance
telephone company built. If somebody
should connect Washington and Baiti-
moCe in the same way. there would be
practically underground connection all
the way from the National Capital to
Boston"

PROGRESS AND EcoNoMY

1t sounds right public spirited to
talk about the incoming administra-
tlon and the general council making
record for constructing parks,
sewers, streets and other public
works, to those who view municipal
Improvements in the same light as
did John Kendrick Bangs hero in
''Municipaland," who expected the
conductor to hand him a nickel when
he climbed aboard a public owned
street car. We have hopes that the
city will be able to extend the park
system, as that involves the expendit-
ure of comparatively small sums
over an extended period; but Padu-
cab has reached the stage, where 1t
IS inadvisable to undertake any pro-
ject, involving large expense, with
out a bond issue.
There are streets that need paving,
and they will not get better as time
goes on. There are alleys that need
paving much more, and they should
be attended to. We are heartily in
favor of the sewer district, No. 3,
not an arbitrary territory, set of
by metes and bounds, regardless of
the character OF the land and the
probabilities of settlement; but Of
sufficient extent to take in the thick
ly populated residence section to the
north, TO discourage the enterprise
of shack-building real estate men.
and TO encourage the Improvement of
available land. But the cost of do
ing the work as It has been done in
other districts would be a grievous
burden on many people, who own
their own little homes, and little else.
The direct one-assessment plan adds
25 per cent to the cost, because the
bidders on the job tack that much on
TO their estimates TO cover the delay
and expense OF collecting A bond
issue for ten years, making the as
sessment of the cost a lien on the
realty in the district, payable in ten
annual installments, would solve all
the difficulties OF sewer building.
The contractor would receive his pay
on completion of the work, cut of
the bond issue, while the city would
be made whole in ten years by the
property liable for the cost.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF IT.

E. p. Weston, the professional pc
destrian entered Chicago today. after
his walk from Maine, and was re-
ceived with great acclaim. He didn't
do anything but walk there. He ac-
complished no good along the way.
His time and manner OF walking will
not eb of any value TO posterity. II
will not revolutionize the methods
of transportation, nor minimize the
dangers of travel. Every hour gilded
palace cars pour their human freight
into the narrow chutes of Chicago
streets. and the individuals are swal-
lowed up in the crowds of the city
unnoticed except by confidence men
and highway robbers. Some OF
them are men of more prominence
than Weston. All are just as good
citizens. And. yet, they viii be ig-

There are just any number OF dis
eases in which the Osteopathic is the
only treatment that will give any re-
lief at all.
The various phases OF neuralgia
and rheumatism as an example yield
more readily to the Osteopathic
treatment than they do TO medicine.
so too do lumbago, chronic head
aches, partial paralysis and kindred
ailments. and to one who knows the
first principals OF osteopathy It Is
easily to see why this is so.
Osteopathy IS a scientific system
OF exercise for the nerves and organs
of the body-slmply manipulation
by which II restores structural nor
mality. The body Is a machine ran
by unseen forces called life, and that
Il may run tremendously II Is neces-
sary that there be liberty of blood,
nerves and arteries from the gene
rating point to destination. This Il
what osteopathy does--gives liberty
to the blood. nerves and arferles.

oil Paducah had made excellent pro-
gress in the way of municipal Inn
proyements, and the city's streets
and sewers and lighting plant equip
ment stand as monuments to the ca
pacity of the boards. BY rigid econ
omy and scrupulous exactness pro
gress may continue gradually; but
the sanitary situation really more
urgently demands attention just now.
Garbage removal and disposal are
Inadequate and growing more so,
and the streets require sprinkling
in the summer. The budget is made
up in the winter, when no complains
are heard about such matters. Coun-
cilmen and aldermen and the mayor
have only In mind ways Of cutting
down expenses, and, as the needs oi
the sanitary and street sprinkling
departments are not pressing in the
winter, they usually are sighted.
The new boards will have thess
matters to attend to as soon as theg
organize, and they won't have time
to consider anything but the weld
ing OF the pruning hook then. SO LEI
the members be warned and give
thought to the summer in advance.
