SENATOR CUMM|NS
ON TWO BIG EVILS

Senator Cumnins of Iowa, often
hits the mark. and he certainly did
when he uttered these words before
the Chicago Press club:
Two mcnaCes to the future of the
country he declared to be COWardiCc
III public life and corruption. Cor
ruption of the sordid kind can be
weeded out by law, but the coward
remains the chief obstacle to public
progress, He is usually a man of
good address. he stands we'll with
his neighbors; he is perhaps, i'll
the church; maybe he has some
times said things which led people
to believe that he had fixed opin
ions. But, elected to public office,
the coward III him came out. He
halts in action, runs away from
critical votes. and hides behind the
wishes of my constituents, trcm-
bles in the presence of much mon
eyed people, and finally funks ell
tirely.
How many of such men have
we seen in the city councils i'll leg
islatures, and in executive offices.
They are the bane of American
politics today. The tendency to
compromise, to be agreeable; TO
smooth things over. is the cause OF
more of our nonsensical, inefficient
legislation, which eventually has to
be done over again, perhaps after
substantial public interests have
been lost forever, The coward is
responsible for most of this lcgiola
ton.

ATLANTIC CITY
FOR B|TUuTH|c
Councilmen Present Written
Account of Street Obser-
vatiOn-The Verdict

A formal report giving the mem
bers the benefit of their observa-
tons, was presented at the meeting
of the city council last night by the
party of Councilmen who had visit
ed Atlantic City; Wilmington and
Baltimore to inspect paving. The
council reported that they had
viewed many different kinds of
pavement and recommended the
Bitulithic. In the party were
councilmen Rose, Craumen, Hake,
Bahne, Myers, Lish and Bremen.
The report follows:
To the members of select and
common councils of York CitI
PENN: The undersigned members
of the city councils visited Atlantic
City, Wilmington, Del, and Balti
more. Md, and made a careful and
thorough examination of the street
paving in those cities. We We're
given all opportunity to inspect all
the different forms of pavement,
Bitulithic, brick, asphalt and wood
blocks.
At Atlantic City all these pave
ments are in use, and with the ex
ception of the brick, which W.
understood has been down for
long time, we found all the pave
ment in an excellent condition.
There is one street paved with as
phalt, Pacific avenue, and we We're
informed it cost SIPS a square
yard. Tennessee avenue for one
square is paved with wood block,
and looked fine We We're, how
ever, told by transfers whom We
questioned that it was very slippery
in wet weather and that horses
frequently fell on it. \ gentleman
whom we asked, told Us that this
pavement cost 81 % square ward.
We noticed some brick paving
around the railroad station and in
the alleys, some of which was good
and some showed the result of wear
and tear and was very rough and
uneven. The cutters were paved
with brick and were in good condi-
ton.
Atlantic avenue, which is the
main business street, was paved
with bitulithic, a hundred feet
wide and five miles long. This
pavement is now in its fourth year
and was in perfect condition.
In addition to Atlantic avenue,
there are twelve other streets paved
with bitulithic. We rode or walk

We were informed that the CITY
has laid over 400, 900 yards of this
form of pavement, SO, 600 yards of
which was laid last Fall, and we
understand that the city expects to
Law more of it this season. We
talked with a number of city Off
Gals and other citizens and all
seemed enthusiastic in their praise
of the btulithiC pavement, prefer
ring it to all other forms of paving.
We met the Chief of the Fire
Department, who made run for
us from two of the fire stations
and we noticed that the horses, al
though smoothly shod, did not slip
at all while running at top speed
on the bitulithiC pavement. The
Chief told us that the horses seem
co to know the paVements that they
run with perfect freedom on the
bituithiC, but would Immediately
slow down when they struck the
brick or asphalt. In general, we
noticed that the streets of Atlantic
City were kept in splendid condi.
ton. 1t is the clcanest city we
have ever seen.
From Atlantic City we went to
Wilmington, Del, and drove over
about three miles of streets. We
found brick, asphalt and bitulithic.
We saw on Market street, the main
business street, one square of as
phalt and one square of bituithiC
immediately adjoining, which we

We're apparently as good as at At

There are about 500 900 yards of

to.
From Wilmington we went to

hours driving and inspecting the
streets. The first bitulithic in
Baltimore was laid in the spring of

in perfect condition. There are

Points i'm Pruning

Do not choose the dormant
season to cut back trees that are
growing too fast to be fruitful,
It will only make them grow the
faster in the spring. Wait TIL
they are il the full fush of
growth, in May or June, if you
want to drive their surplus ener-
gies into fruit buds. Be sure to
carry paint pot along with the
pruners, and whenever a limb
as much as an inch in diameter
is cut off cover the wound with
oil and white lead to keep out
dampnesS and the entrance of
fungi spores that will produce
rot. In the spring this cover is
not SO necessary, for as soon as
growth begins the tree will be-
gin to cover its wounds with new
wood that will creep over it from
all sides.-Rural World.
