The question OF what to do with

In the earlier days Of the republic
there were more. For instance. In the

ministration there were alive John
Adams. Jefferson. Madison and Mon
roe. During Taylor's brief administra-
tion there were for time three ex-
Presidents. as under Pierce. There

steadily decreased. Only ten Presidents
have survived their retirement from

lard Fillmore was an ex-President for

HIGHWAYS AS MEMORIALS.

Tho idea OF building great public
highways MS memorials to our Illus
trtous dead Is altogether admirable.
1t originates apparently with Assist
ant Postmaster-General McCleary, q
member OF the Lincoln Memorial Conf
mission and Is so far applied by him
only to the question OF suitable
tribute to Lincoln. But the sugges-
ton Is altogether too good to stop
there. What better memorial could
any dead man wish, or what truer
and filter ono could his admirers give?
There is no thought here to cheaper
gift TO the dead with the condition
that It shall BIO useful to the living In
this case the utility Is Just the point
that gives depth and Significance to
the gift Mr.. McClearys proposal Is
