New Bedford and Waterbury,.

The Newburyport Daily News must
have allowed its quietest and quaint
est and oI5est paragrarher to make
such a statement as this;
New Bedford has astonished the
people who thought that she was
simply quiet ard quaint old whaling
town with nothing doing at present.
Her growth has been the fastest of
any New England city. and has placed
her close to the 100000 mark
We have to thank a score more or
less of contemporaries which have
thought they were saying something
nice when they put in that adjective
"QEaiut'-as, per example, one which
SAYS that "she has been classed among
the quaint municipalities that We're
living upon the memory Of past
glcries and former prosperity. But
We wish they would stop it. The. ad
jective does not apply now. and we
arc not certain that it ever did. Here
and there may be a building or
neck fairly entitled to the word. but
lie city as a whole is not quaint. nor
anything like quaint, and it is high
time to stop.
As to the growth of New Bedford,
which is just now discovered to be 50
astonishing, it has been going on for
considerable time. We are not
sure which census it was, but one
some years ago disclosed this city as
having a phenomenal growth. and no
pains We're spared in this locality to
spread the information of the fact.
The polite surprise which is mani
Tested at this day is a trifle aggraNat-
lbs in view of it's belated recognition
Of a fact well known here for long
time. Still we assume that our
mplimentary newspaper friends
mean wei, and so incline to be for

WORK WELL DONE.

In accordance with an act of Assem-
bly, passed last winter the work of the
highway division of the Maryland Geo
logical Survey has been transferred to
the State Reads Commission. 1t is
now an opportune time to call the at
tention of the people of Maryland to
the debt they owe to this department
of their Government. But for the
work of the highway division of the
Geological Survey the State would not
now be engaged in the great work Of
road improvement which is destined to
add enormously to the physical wealth
of the State and the comfort and pros
perity of its people. The Survey did
the pioneer work of road improvement
and conducted campaign of education
which made the enactment of the State
Roads law of 1908 possible. In making
the transfer to the Roads Commission
the highway division of the Geological
Survey submitted a report which gave
q oAiiliildIf VI lNs az FiN4I' lLo Dl III
cipal achievement has been to put
Maryland in the front rank of road
building States. 1t has explored and
located the road building material,
made surveys, tested materials, pro-
vived the counties with scientific aid
and advice which has resulted in i'm
proved methods, and it has brought
public sentiment to favor the best kind
of roads. In its activities of y years
81, 784, POS. 81, including $495, l13. 70 paid
by the several counties and individuals.
The roads constructed and completed
are 1861 miles, with outstanding con-
tracts for AZ miles more.
In 1904, by the work Of the Geologi-
cal Survey, aided by Mr. Samuel NJ.
Shoemaker and other public-spirited
citizens, the Shoemaker or State Aid
law was enacted, appropriating annual
tribbte as much as they received. At
first the counties refused this aid, de-
cGning to contribute even half. But
after a start was once made and the
character of the roads established, the
applications for State aid increased un-
til finally the entire appropriation was
used. In 1906 the highway division was
further charged with the construction
Of a road from Baltimore to Washing
ton, and all but 10 miles of that impor-
tant work has been completed.

TO FIX THE DATE FOR PRIMARIES
Hanna And Vandiver Expected to
Confer During the Present Week

Chairmen hurry Vandiver and John
B. Hanna, of the Democratic and Re-
publican State Central Committees, re-
spectively, are expected to confer this
week and fix the date for holding the
Congressional primaries.
1t is believed that the primaries will
be held August 80 or September 3, the
indications pointing to the latter day.
Under the primary law both parties
must make their nominations by direct
vote throughout the State on the same
day. They can not, however, be held
later than the first Monday in Septem-
Der. which this year is Setember 5. AS
it is Labor Day Democrats and Repub-
licans alike advocate the selection of
another day. County leaders desire
that the primaries be held on Saturday,
as 1t would be more satisfactory the
country voters to participate in them,
while the city leaders are anxious that
they be held on Tuesday.
The late primaries appear to meet
with the approval ofnearly all avowed
or prospective candidates. Apparently
they do not want long primary cam
prign. The leaders are anxious that the
Congressional campaign should be about
two months l)ng.

A WOMAN'S MIND.

Hugo Munsterberg makes the claim
that by some psychological method he
can read woman's mind. That is in
deed wonderful. The male part of the
population will have to be shown before
giving credence to this remarkable
claim, and the more important part of
the population will scott at the great
discoveries conceit. This accomplish
ment of Mr.. Munsterberg would be
more prodigious than the invention of
wireless telegraphy or the prevailing
style IN hats.
Mr.. Munsterberg proposes to read
something which since the harvesting
of the first apple has been illegible to
the profoundest scholars and unintel-
ligible to mere men. Reading the
Rosetta stone, the bricks of Babylon
and the clay tablets of Nineveh has
been considered child's play in COM
parison with the achievement pro-
claimed by this savant
If Mr.. Munsterberg can really and
truly read a woman S mind, what mo-
ments of ecstacy must be his, For
most men even the vain attempt to
read her eyes gives thrills, but what
Joy can compare with the reading of
mind which so many churlish philoso-
pliers have considered blank. Think of
the charming secrets which Mr. Nuns
terberg may pierce! Think Of the de-
light of reading inmost thoughts all
tangled and festooned with ribbons,
laces, mock flowers, willow plumes and
aigrettes and other dainty mysteries!
Think of the marvel of penetrating to a
womans honest thoughts about her
best friends taste in hats, her style in
dress and the neighbors children
