WASHINGTON, Mar. 2.-The adj
ministration postal savings bank bill
may be referred back to the postof-
flee committee tomorrow when the
time comes for a vote on that meas
ure by the senate.
Senator Hepburn of Idaho so init
mated in a speech in the senate to-
day. on his substitute for the pending
bill. Whether he would offer the sub
stiute he said, would depend upon de-
Velopments tomorrow.
Il have heard many expressions of
dissatisfaction with the legislation as
it stands" he said. "a number of
senators have indicated a desire that
the bill be recommitted, that it may
have further consideration before we
commit ourselves irrevocably to the
policy of a postal savings system"
He added that the republican party
was under no pledge to pass a postal
savings bank law at the very begin
ming of the Taft administration. There
still would be time for consideration
if the bill should go back to the COM
mittee.
Hepburn and Carter Clash.
Mr.. Heyburn's speech was followed
by a sharp clash between himself and
Senator Carter, in charge of the bill.
He had begun by suggesting change
OF title and Mr.. Carter charged him
with trying to change the constitu-
tional character of the bill by alter
ing the title.
Mr.. Hepburn replied some what We
hemently that he had made no such
effort, and Mr.. Carter undertook to
show that he had done so. While
the Montana senator was speaking
Mr.. Hepburn sought to interrupt. Mr..
Carter declined to yield.
Il should think he would decline af-
ter such a speech as ne made" de-

GOOD ROADS AND POLITICS.

"a r the recent session of the Kent County
4 Levy Court large delegation of the
Milford Good Roads Association appeared with
the request that the Levy Court do something
towards road improvement.
DR.. G. Layton Grier gave summary Of the
work of the association in having the roads and
natural soil examined by experts from the De
partment of Agriculture. "As a result said
Dr. Grier, Eve have come here to ask that you
let US take the eight mile stretch of road between
Milford and Frederica one of the most import
ant roads in Delaware, and make OF it per-
manent pike"
The materials. the Milford men have been inr
formed, are at hand for making roads as good as
permanent stone roads, il not better
The report does not say what action was
taken, but the presence of Dr. Grer and 9TH
ers at the Levy Court session shows the deep in
terest the progressive citizens of Kent county
arc taxing in the matter of good roads. We trust
tGT will not let that interest relax It is a
Shame on Kent county that the obstinate politi-
cal ring that controls affairs in that county
should need such beseeching appeal as that OF
the Milford association
The association has pointed out the way to
have better roads without great expense. But
it seems that peck of peanut politicians fear
that any scheme of good roads, any change from
the present useless and worthless method, would
take some political pap away from the crew OF
henchmen that feed at the county crib. Until the
people decide that county government was not
devised for the purpose of supplying jobs to
political hucksters shall have little of the per-
manent improvements to which the tax payers
are entitled.
DIR. Grier and his associates should extend their
organization TO other parts of the county They
should defeat candidates for the Levy Court. if
they can, who are known TO be obstructonists
and petty politicians. The time should come
when the affairs of Delaware shall be
managed in the interests Of the people so
that the people shall get the worth of their
money paid in taxes, and it will come if such
men as those who compose the Milford Good
Roads Association band themselves together to
work for the public good.
The lower counties are fair to look upon. They
are great for home seekers. but they are troubled
entirely by too much politics. In fact we have
too much politics in Delaware. Politics has held
back the state Read our state newspapers and
almost the only thing discussed is politics. 1t
is here, there and everywhere Analysed poll
tics is often found to be a great commotion over
whether this man or that man shall have Job
Citizens instead of concerning themselves SO
much about such matters should do as the Mil
ford Good Roads Association is doing-take ur
a subject that is of real concern to the people
Some day the people will be aroused on this
question. What is needed in Delaware is more
public spirited men and fewer professional poll
ticians.

Editorial Opinion
Vacations Taken AfOot.

Chester Times.
The great majority of our people
take little exercise in walking, aside
from the journey daily performed in
going to and from their place of en-
ployment. There has certainly been an
Increase in the number who regularly
get into the outskirts since the open
ing of the city parks and 1t is not i'm
probable that the improvement in the
health record of Chester Is due in a
measure to this practice.
Our suburban sections invite the pc
destrian in every direction, and one Of
the good Offices performed by the
parks has been to invite the stroller
beyond these pleasure grounds and
thus encourage our people in the out
door habit. The effect upon a com
munity cannot be otherwise than ply
sically and morally beneficial. We are
prone to forget our troubles, our petty
vexations and nerve -wracking expert
ences when we get among the woods,
the fields and along the banks of the
streams. Many men and women Of
Chester have found this so and are
prolonging their lives accordingly.
It may be news to some of our read
ers. but Chester has some young men
whose pedestrian trips have not only
taken them to every part Of this coun-
ty, but to other counties as we'll. Val
ley Forge. Warwick. a point of historic
interest in the Revolution in Chester
county; Kennett Square; Ringing
Rocks in the upper reaches of Mont
gomery county, and other points as
distant have been visited by these pc
destrians.
One Of these young men tells the
Times that in his walks he has col
lected a library of highly interesting
and fascinating photographs taken
with a small camera he always carries
on his iaunts. Those who have par
ticipated in such joys will agree with

THE CITY MUDDLE.

T seemed to be plain even to layman that
the present officials Of the city had no
legal right to their places, but it needed some
opinion such as that of the New York firm OF
lawyers, who declared the present city govern
ment to be composed Of usurpers, to bring the
real hard facts out clearly.
This serious matter should be taken up by
some competent legal authority in the city and
If necessary, the Legislature should be called
in special session to rectify the bunder What
ever can be done to satisfy such authorities as
the New York lawyers should be done without
delay
That blunder has proved to be very costly to the
city
The question, however. is one for the lawyers

ScoRN MATERIAL THINGS.

/ + the Anti-Saulsbury Democrats control the
y next Democratic Convention as thev did
the last one, and follow the implied advice
of their newspaper mouthpece. they will be in
a peculiar position. The convention will nomi-
nate candidate for Congress, and it is possi-
bic that the choice of United States Senatorial
candidate will be expressed. The convention
might also determine or suggest course that
the Senator and Representative, if elected,
should pursue in Washington.
II such advice should be given, we presume it
would be that the representatives of Delaware in
Washington should abstain from trying to do
things for the state, that they should scorn such
petty matters getting appropriations for Del
aware.
The fact that the present representatives of
Delaware labered faithfully for appropriations As
well took their part in national legislation, has
made them the targets for nnammatory denun-
citation The only way therefore in which their
critics can be satisfied is for the Democratic can
didates to pledge themselves to devote their
timein Washington to doing nothing or to pre-
pairing wind iammng speeches on free trade.

GOOD CITIZENSHIP.

a TTORNEY Francis H. Hoffecker made
some good points the other night in his
address before the Citizens Association of Holly
Oak A progressive citizen. according to Mr..
Hoffecker is one who has not only time to at
tend to his own affairs and to attend to them
we'll but he has also the inclination and ability
10 devote a part OF the time to public affairs.
A progressive citizen is, or should be, accord
ing to Mr.. Hoffec<er part Of free government
such as ours. and 10 a certain extent and in a
certain measure he is responsible for the laws
that are enacted, for he may become one of the
lawmakers himself, or in any event it is his duty
to help elect those who frame legislation. There
fore all good, progressive citizens should take
a keen and vital interest in seeing to it that
good. honest and capable men nominated and
elected to Office. Mr. Hohecker also spoke of
the dangers of official profigacy and corrup-
ton.
All this is true and generally admitted but the
repetition Of the truth is needed to impress it
upon the mind of the average man.
Assuming Mr.. Hoffeckers statement to be
true-which it is-we have but a small percent
age of progressive citizens Most men from
either lack OF time or inclination, and ohen be
cause they so busy with their own affairs
give little heed to public matters.
If they gave more attention to them, we
should have better government and the tax
payers would get more for their money than
they do. But there is no reason to be discour
aged. People are beginning TO show more inter-
est in public affairs and in good government than
ever There are more forces working for civic
betterment than ever before The standard is
being made higher and political leaders who ap-
precate this fact will be the wise leaders.
