his speech OF nearly two hours, he
never once lost his hold on the crowd.
Regarding the South Dakota bond

He answered many questions pro-

the action of the Republican party
in authorizing a tariff committee OF
investigation showed a sincere desire
to find the truth regarding the diff

adoption of Republican policies by
the State of North Carolina would
mean the influx of Northern capital

Opposed to Prison Site.

These gentlemen, however, make one con-
dition, which is that the state of New
York shall abandon the plan upon which
1t is now engaged of building a new
state prison upon the west bank of the
Hudson. opposite Peekskill. and above
Stony Point, the scene of one of the
finest fights of the continental army, I'M
der Gen. Anthony Wayne. The old Sing
Sing prison is too small for the demands
that are made upon it, and the good
people who live on that side Of the Hud-
son are not pleased with that kind of
neighbor. They have long complained
that the prison has kept residents away,
has caused a depreciation in the price
of their property. and they will never
be contented until 1t is removed. The
legislature. to crafty them, passed a
construction of new prison on the OPP
posite side Of the river, on one of the most
beautiful spots between West Point and
the Palisades. The federal government
less powder is tested and explosives and
ordnance are stored.
A tract Of five hundred acres, fronting
two thousand feet upon the river, was re-
served for prison purposes. 1t is situated
on the slope Of Bear mountain. and ad-
joins Fort Montgomery and tract Of
seven hundred acres OF mountain land
which was acquired several years ago
by the federal government for q water
supply for the West Point Military
Academy. There is no private residence
within several miles OF Bear mountain,
and the spot chosen for the prison Is
practically isolated. 1t cannot be ap-
preached except from the river, and in
some respects 1t is an ideal location for
a prison: but since 1t would spoil the
park the subscriptions above mentioned
are made conditional upon an abandon
ment of the location for the new prison
and it's removal to some other place.

Favors Accepting Condition.

Gov. Hughes advises the state to ac-
cept the condition and locate the prison
elsewhere. His recommendation for a
bond issue of s., $685. 900 to complete the
purchase of the land and to provide a
fund for its Improvement will doubtless
be acted upon promptly, and Mrs. Har-
riman's gift will be formally accepted
by the state. This will provide fund
of about s5,OOO,OOO cash, which will be
sufficient to secure a tract of land from
Newburg, on the north. to the New Jer,
sey boundary line, on the south. a total
of about $4,000 acres, and make such
improvements as will be necessary to
open it to the public. AS I have already
suggested, there is likely to be q large
Side q Of the the
In her letter to the governor Offering
the gift Of 10000 acres OF ground and q
million dollars in cash Mrs. hartman
said:
ut was Mr.. Harriman's wish, and it is
my expectation. that this fund should
be used by the state to acquire other
parcels of land so that the park
may ultimately have some portion Of
river front. and thus be rendered more
useful and beneficial to the people of this
city and neighboring counties"
In this connection, 1t is interesting to
know that Mr.. Pierpont Morgan, who has
been the largest contributor and the most
enthusiastic supporter Of the Palisades
owns q large tract of land adjoining the
Hartman gift, and lying between 1t and
the government reservation at West
Point. Mr.. James Stillman, formerly
president of the City National Bank, also
has a large place at Cornwall. in the
direct path Of the proposed park strip,
SO that other gifts of land may be ex-
pected in the future.
Central Park, New York, has an area
of 883 acres, and Prospect Park. Brook
lyn. sixty-four acres. Both of them are
highly improved, but their limited area
offers no camping privileges. and they
are not big enough for Fairgrounds. The
Bots de Boulogne Of Paris has 1850
acres, and that comes nearer the pro-
posed Palisades park than any other.
The state of New York is very well
supplied with parks, however. In his
recent message Governor Hughes said !.
Our total holdings In the Adirondack
and Catskill mountains now amount to
1.641, 500 acres. of which $3.50 acres were
acquired during the past year. The
area Of the proposed Adirondack park Is
S,313,564 acres. and that of the pro-
posed Catskii park 576. 100 acres, making
q total Of S,8S9. 684 acres"
When 1t is completed the Adirondack
park will be larger than the Yellowstone.
which has 2.142, ITO acres.

Complaints Received.

The report of the District commission
shows that 112 complaints were received
since January Z, 1909, the date Of its
previous annual report or 247 since the
organization of the commission: that
f1fty-seven of the 112 complaints were not
acted upon because they were of a trivial
character or referred to conditions not
within the power of the commission to
correct; that tWenty-Seven were disposed
of directly, among them complaints Of
speed violations, which were referred to
the District Commissioners for action by
the police department.; that twenty-six
were referred to the interstate commerce
commission with appropriate recommen-
dation and have for the most part been
acted upon. and that but eight cases
are now under consideration by the Dis
trict commission.
The report adds that in addition to the
complaints $40 letters were received and
acknowledged by the commission, eigh-
teen of which related to the lack Of prop
er transfer facilities between the various
street railway lines, making total Of
twenty-six such communications received
since the commission was organized. The
report continues: This matter of trans
fers has been thoroughly investigated by
this commission, with the result that 1t
has been found the complaints are gen.
orally we'll founded. and the existing
conditions are far from satisfactory to
the travelling public" Legislation, 1t is
stated. Is needed to remedy the evil, and
the interstate commerce commission is
asked to recommend it.

Catholic Society's Contributions for
1909 Show Increase.

Contributions to the Society for the
Preservation Of the Faith Among Indian
Children during 1909 amounted to s21, 4s2,
or $3.50 more than in the previous year.
according to report made by Rev. Will
liam H. ketcham, director of the bureau
of Catholic Indian Missions. He says
that the gain has been made by no loss
to any individual parish or diocese. The
indebtedness of the bureau to the schools
at present is $4,000
1.-THE increased membership Of the
preservation society," he adds, lis due
in good measure to the work Of the b,l-
reau's field lecturer. the Rev. Charles
Warren Currier, who at present IL devot-

MAY NEED OUTSIDE HELP.
Norfolk Short Of Eligible Enumer-
ators for Census.

NORFOLK. Va. January 24.-If the
United States census bureau intends to
fulfill the mandates of Congress in taking
the thirteenth census this year it probably
will have to send outside enumerators
into Norfolk to count its inhabitants, as
there is probability that not enough
local men can be found to do this work.
Supervisor Bunting of the second Vir-
ginia district is experiencing difficulty in

they have used only $457.93, a fact which
Gov. Hughes considered worthy of men,
ton in his message to the legislature. No
member of the commission has ever
drawn a dollar for his time or his serv-
ices.
Simultaneous with the generous gift Of
Mrs. Hartman. Gov. Hughes announced
that party of patriotic gentlemen had

Gratifying progress has been made in
the direction of improving the local street
car service according to the second
annual report of the interstate commerce
commission on street railroads in the
the District Of Columbia. which has just
been made to Congress.
1.-THE equipment of the cars has been
materially improved; modern safety ap-

signs have been adopted, and heating APP

the report states, and following investi-
cations conducted by the District electric
railway commission, the street railway
companies have voluntarily instituted
certain reforms which were much desired
by the public, but as to which the COM
mission was without jurisdiction to make
an order In this connection special
reference is made to the institution of

Overcrowding of Cars.

Reference is made in the report to the
overcrowding of cars, to the institution
of prosecutions therefor. to the fact that
the contention Of the railway companies
that the section of the law touching
thereupon was too general. and to the
appeal on the question to the Court Of
Appeals on a writ of error, in the hope
that a decision will be rendered which
will definitely fix the responsibilities OF
the railway companies under the law.
The commission urgently renews its
former recommendation that it be reliev-
ed of the duty of supervising the street
railway service of the District of Column
bia, and commends the activity and eff
cheney of the District electric railway
commission, whose report is submitted
with it's own.

Need More of It.

Word comes from Milwaukee that
the Socialist Mayor, Siedel, has in
troduced to the favorable considera-
tion of his council, plan for the
municipal acquisition of adjacent
property, the city to enjoy the bene-
fit of the increase in value incident
to expansion, after setting aside
such portions as are needed for
parks and Fairgrounds. This is a
most radical departure from custom
airy methods inasmuch as a few ia.
vored insiders are usually told of the
probable location of property the
city intends acquiring, to enable
them to secure options and later
sell to the municipality at vastly
inflated prices. If Mayor Siedel's
position is Socialistic we know Of
many towns and cities that might
profitably emulate his policy and be-
lieve the whole country would be
better off for it. If this is Socialism,
give us more of it.-G. F. Clifford.
