BURIED IN BEAUTIFUL SPOT
Grave Of William Penn Situated in
One Of EngIand's Most Charm.
ing Localities.

By deep lanes which are jeweled
with violets in spring, through rich
glades of beechwood, pilgrims come
every year to quaint, high-roofed,
green-robed meeting house called Jor-
dams In the rough little burial ground
behind it lies William Penn, the most
famous of all "the people called Quak-
ers," the founder of the state of Penn
sylvania and the author of book
which has not yet come into its own.
All this country is rich in memories
of the great work of English litera-
ture. "Once to these silent woods
young Milton came. The greatest
man since Milton according to sound
Wing doctrine, Edmund Burke, chose
to live hard by in that house which
he "hung from top to bottom with pic
cures" and whose splendor Johnson
was content mot to envy. but adj
mire."
Americans, the most jealous pill
grims of the modern world, are nat
urally foremost in their devotion to
the founder of one of their greatest
states, says the London Telegraph.
The spirit of William Penn, powerful
in Benjamin Franklin, counted for
much in shaping the destinies of the
young American republic. It would
not be difficult to trace its influence
in some of the statesmen who guided
the United States through the dangers
of the next century. The reverence
of America is natural, and it may we'll
explain the project of which we hear,
to remove PENIS ashes to an Ameri-
can shrine. But an explanation is not
a justification. 1t is neither vulgar
Jealousy nor unreasoning sentiment
which demands that the grave at Jor-
dams should be left undisturbed1
No place in America could have the
same fitness as the humble burial
ground at Jordans, with its memories
of the days when the followers of
George Fox, prosecuted and insulted
by the powers of the day, were fight
ing their battle for freedom and the
dignity of man. In England the fight
was won, and to England belongs the
dust of the victors. If any other coun-
try than the land of his birth and his
death. of his work and of his suffer-
ings, is to claim the shrine of Penn,
not America alone, but all the civilized
world might well appeal. To him as
much as to its founder, George Fox,
the Society of Friends owes its power.
and the strenuous philanthropy of the
Friends has left It's mark all over the
world The poor in every country,
the savage, the criminal, and the luna
tic, owe much to the spirit of Will
liam Penn.

humbly asking him for concessions.


However. waving the fact that his
letter to the gas men was handed out
for publication within a few hours of
the time at which it was written, the
comment which his friends made with
its publication to that effect that "of
course the mayor does not hope to Sc
cure as low rates as the Darling fran
chise offered" should not be ignored.
Now, the people of this city passed on
the rates in the Darling franchise and
by a vote of two to one turned them
down even tho the company was pro-
posing to pay the city 2 per cent
gross income tax. If the mayor does
not expect to get as low rates as the
Darling franchise with the gross in
come tax waived what is he wasting
good postage for? Why! Jones &
Hovey offered him better gas rate
over a year ago and the T.-R. helped
him to roast the Offer If he now
writes letter principally for publica-
ton and admits at the start that he
does not hope to get rates as low as
Darling offers who is the man working
for anyway? Did not Jones & Hovey
do everything they could to get the
Darling rates adopted? These rates
with gross income tax tackled on were
acceptable to Darling and the men for
whom he stood therefore no honest city
official could ever believe them in
equitable to the company and it would
seem that any man who would start
out to get rates which he did not hope
would be as low as had already been
offered must be trying to serve two
clients. AS the time approaches for the
company's bond mortgage to come due
we may expect wondrous and strange
maneuyerS.

tive and could originate ideas as to city
