The latest news from Washington is

will be made to dove-tail the Aldrich

Vreeland bill. passed by the house, but
even the promoters of this scheme of
COMPROMISE admit that they nave bat
slim hope and broadly intimate that
the probable result would not be worth
the effort were it not for the fact that
they fear to go home and tell their con-
stituents that they did nothing to pro-
tect the country from a repetition OF
last years financial disturbance.
Early in the session. it was an

MUNICIPAL CLEANING.
Excellent Practice That Should Be
Made Permanent Custom

Excellent Practice That Should Be
Made Permanent Custom.
1t has become quite fad in southern
California to proclaim and observe GER
tain days as cleanup days, especially
In our smaller cities, our towns and
villages. On these days the mayor,
council, trustees, board of health or
some constituted power or authority
has asked the residents to clean up
their yards and the streets and alleys
abutting, to beautify their premises,
plant and care for street trees and
strive in every way to make their COM
munity more attractive and healthful
and therefore more valuable from a
realty point of view.
The idea is most excellent one and
should be encouraged in every way.
These public workdays should be OBJ
served in every community in our land
and should be made permanent, setting
aside one day each month or one day
each quarter in which all should aim
to make the place more livable. Mu-
nicipal health and beauty mean wealth
both collectively and individually.
Home seekers are not attracted by dirty
and slovenly municipal housekeeping.
Cleanliness means or is capital, and II
has been observed that the greatest
growth of population has been in those
centers made the most healthful and
attractive, and this through Jealous.
well directed cooperation.

Hospitals For Trees.

'"The trees Of Paris will delight YOU"
said the Travelled man who was seeing
off his friend. Every boulevard and
avenue has its two lines of trees. Shell
tered from the hot sun, you walk under
them in a cool green dusk. That hot
and dusty city doesn't easily keep its
trees vigorous and fresh. 1t must have
tree hospitals-great nurseries where,
with all sorts Of liquid parasite killers
and all sorts Of stimulating fertilizers,
the run down urban trees are built up
again. Continually In Paris you see
faded trees being taken up and fresh
trees being put down and fresh and
faded trees alike in those ambulances
which we call transplanters drive con-
tinually up and down tie sunny
streets"

LET ALL PULL TOGETHER.
Then Maybe That Prospective Fac
tory Will Come to the Town.


Nothing helps more to build up a
town commercially than the locating of
a reputable. up to date manufacturing
concern lin our midst" This sort Of
establishment also helps to build up Il
town socially, for 1t supplies employ
ment and wages to young people who
otherwise might not earn money
enough to take part in local social af-
fairs. Every factory, large or small,
that any town can get adds to the vi
tality of the town and community. In
commenting on a proposition recently
received from a firm that wants a two
acre factory site in Cold Spring, n. Y,
with a guarantee Of steady employ
ment for fifty men, the editor of the
Sentinel in that town makes some re-
marks which are applicable to any
other town in the United States.
'There are only two things needed
unity on the part of the citizens of
the new industry.
$50 long as the citizens Of Peekskill
were divided the village made no prog
ress. When these divisions ended and
a spirit of enterprise, construction ana
progress was shown the recent marked
progress of Peekskill started
Every city in the country has a
similar history. Industries do not come
unless they are solicited or at least
made welcome.
Gold Spring has missed getting two
or three factories through lack of a
united spirit on the part Of her citi-
zens. Why not get over all these petty
jealousies and unite to help each other
and to upbuild the community? We
would all be the gamers from such
policy, gamers not only in money and in
population, but gamers in good WILL in
hope, in public spirit and in all that
makes for communal Improvement and
for individual good flowing therefrom.
Us 1t not high time to get rid Of
petty misunderstanding and factional-
ism and join to bring industries and
new residents to the town? Let the
motto be:
"Unite for the common good"
