OF new PRESS WITH
HANDSOME
TRADE EXTENSION EDITION

The growth of the Daily Express in
circulation has passed the printing IA
cilities of our plant, and a few days
ago a Duplex Type Perfecting press
of the latest model, weighing 240eO
pounds, was shipped from the maker
at Battle Creek, Mich, to the publish
ers OF this paper. This press. which
prints direct from the type forms, has
a capacity Of 5000 eight-page papers
per hour, inserted, cut, pasted and
folded, and represents the latest I'M
provements in this class Of printing
machinery. This is the first mention
that the Daily Express has made Of
the shipment Of this addition to the
mechanical equipment OF its plant, al
though the press has been under con
struction some months and rep iesenfs
the outlay of a large amount Of
money.
II Is proper, when newspaper
makes such an addition to its equip
ment as the Express is making through
the installation OF its Duplex Type Per-
fecting press, to celebrate the event BY
the publication of an issue Of such
paper something out OF the oidinacy,
And the publishers of this newspaper

Besides collecting the paving assess

for two weeks, Mr.. Dews has been re-

sessment in this district is not due
till Sept. l, 1910, but property owners
have the privilege of paying the en-
tire amount at this time, thus saving
interest. and this many of them are
doing. In numerous instances the en-
tire assessment against a piece Of
property is less than dollar or only
a few dollars and the owners do not
care to bother with payments extended
over ten years. It is in this district
that a movement to resist the collec-
ton of the tax has been started.

Absenteeism in the House of Rep
resentatives is becoming a real evil, to
to such an extent indeed as to inter
fere with the business of the lower
branch of Congress. il is well
known that during the closing days
of the Sixtieth Congress a number Of
votes we've lost to the organization as
result Of the absence Of members.
From Washington comes the crafty
ing report that Speaker Cannon in
tends to look after these delinquents
who do not stay on the job during
the consideration of the tariff bill and
that they will ''docked" if they fail to
attend the sessions. History affords
ample precedent for such a course,
Speaker Crisp in the Fifty-third and
Speaker Reed in the Fifty-fourth
Congress both brought lot of absen-
tees to their senses by ordering that
deductions should be made from the
salraies of those who failed to attend
the session. The pity of it is that
such method mnst needs be resorted
to in order to enforce a responsibility
that should be regarded as a duty
and a privilege.

that the State Road Commission get
a move on it, and begin active oper-
atoms toward building the proposed
State turnpikes.
As we understand it, practically all
the preliminaries have been arranged,
the respective routes selected, and
even the bonds, through the sale of
which the necessary funds will be
raised, have been floated, so it seems
that the Road Commission is up to
the proposition to go ahead and
build the roads. II the work is be-
gun at once the people may derive

Delay will be costly expedient.
No one but the farmers or persons
who have much hauling over the
public highways can estimate cor
rectly the value of good roads. Time
is saved, and the wear an tear of We
bicles is avoided, both Of which
mean much money in the pockets Of
publit road travellers, and as we are
to have the progressive improvement
let us have it as soon as possible.
With some people any time will do,
and while we do not charge that the
State Road Commission is made up
of such material, little shaking up
to induce the gentlemen to 90 ahead
with the beginning Of "happy spring
time is, as we see it, not out OF
place. Our faith is in the Governor.
1t is his pet measure, and to his
credit and the public are looking
largely to him to keep the enterprise
on the move. We have Endorsed his
progressive spirit in this, as in many
other respects, and propose to con-
time doing so, believing his acts in
said respect should meet with I'M

Coupons in bags of tobacco and
the union label packages of tobacco
is prohibited by one of the provisions
of the new Tariff bin now before Con-
gress. The provisions relating to this
subject is as follows;
None Of the packages of smoking
tobacco and fine cut chewing tobacco
and cigarettes prescribed by law shall
be permitted to have packed in or at
tached to or connected with any arti-
Gle or thing whatsoever other than the
manufacturers wrappers and labels,
the internal revenue stamp and the
tobacco or cigarettes respectively nut
up therein on which tax is required to
BE- paid under the internal revenue
laws; nor shall there be affixed to or
branded or stamped, marked, written
or printed upon said packages or their
contents any promise or offer of any
order or certificate for any gift, prize,
premium, payment or reward.
This provision will not necessarily
compel tobacco and cigarette manu-
factnrers to abandon the practise OF
giving premiums in exchange for cou-
pons, but they will have to devise
some means of distributing the con
pons other than in packages of eiga.
rettes or tobacco.

Special Train Left Phila-

New York. Nov. 1S.--With the pass
ing Of the first passenger train
through the Pennsylvania railroad
tunnels today from Harrison, N. j.
under the north river, under Manhat-
tan island and under the East river to
Long Island City was accomplished
the most important achievement in
American railroading since the com-
pletion Of the steel highways which
Joined the Atlantic with the Pacific
seaboard.
A special train left Philadelphia,
proceeded across New Jersey to the
tunnel terminals at Harrison, plunged
into the tunnels, stopped at the huge
new Pennsylvania railroad station in
Manhattan and then went ON through
the tunnel to the terminus in Long
Island City.
In the special train were President
James McCrea, Vice President Samuel
Rea and the directors of the road.
The train bearing the high officials
of the road and invited guests stopped
at the new terminal Of the four tun-
nels at Harrison for the party to in
spect the work there. The train pro-
ceeded slowly and stopped at many
points along the route TO allow the Of
ticiaIs to thoroughly inspect the work
that has cost close TO $100,000,000.
