OF despair The papers, we are sorry to say, didn't

BOULEVARD IN KENT.

III He Kent County Levy Court has unanimously
i passed resolution offering TO Mr.. I. Cole
man dupont the use of the state road in that
county, the cross roads and the bridges for the
new highway The resolution is admirable in
tone and shows that the Levy Court is in hearty
sympathy with the building of the boulevard as
it was supposed that it would be.
The Court in the resolution makes good sug
gestion, which is that the state road in Kent Of
fers direct route and that the expense of main
tanning one good state highway would be less
than that of maintaining two.
1t has all along seemed to us that the most
feasible thing for Mr. DUPONT to do would be TO
use the state road in Kent county. Certainly
he could find no better route than the state road
between Smyrna and Dover, which is now high
way in fairly good condition If an entirely new
road should be built between those points, the
state would be put to the expense of keeping up
the road, and the county would still have
the present state road on its hands.
If the present state road is used the county
would be relieved Of maintaining it, and the money
thus saved could, be used for improving the cross
roads- Soon Kent county would be netted with
reasonably good highways.
The same, in a measure, applies TO this county.
1t would be better to use the present Kings
highway, going along the eastern end Of the
county, that part not touched by the Delaware
railroad although the old Kings highway was
the natural course for the railroad TO take.
The Journal is somewhat surprised that the
residents of the eastern part of New Castle county
have not manifested more interest in the new
boulevard Perhaps they are waiting until the
survey has been made in the lower counties and
work actually begun, but if they considered the
route now, much time would be saved
Mr. dupont wants to push the road to compile
ton as rapidly as possible.

who looked very happy with his young wife had
battalion of five children in stairstep array and
they we'll behaved at that. He was kept
busy answering questions, first by one and then
by the other for two hours and those kids must

That man must have his hands full every day
looking after those children without botbering

Roosevelts theory of big families in earnest, but
he was happy and so his wife.

ONE PHASE OF 1T.

TTNDER our present plan of city government
- various inspectors are appointed to watch
certain things. There are inspectors of oils,
and meats and milk and the like, but does any re-
sponsible persons really know whether these in
spectors are performing their duties or not?
We make no reference to the present officials
and are casting reflections upon them, but we
have in mind the system generally, and the ap-
parent responsibility
Suppose inspector diligently performs this
duties, what is he up against? Some people will
slip around and tell him not to be too hard" on
this man or that man. What is the use of stirring
up trouble when you can go along quietly, make
bluff at performing your work conscientously and
you will get your pay?
After all it is the pay and the holding of your
job that you are after, they will tell him.
There is no adequate manner of checking up
on such inspectors This is one of the defects of
an irresponsible city government. Authority is d-
vided In some instances what is everybody's bust
ness is nobodys business, and in other instances
there are conflicts of authority which result in lost
motion.
What is needed is a responsible city government
and not much scattering of authority

Big Record is
Established

The revival OF mining on the Com
stock is making record. When
ore was first discovered in the Mexi-
can it was the general belief that it
was small deposit.
As work progresses the strength
and value of the find is becoming
known and already large fortune
has been taken from the deposit.
During the month OF June the ex-
traction of ore from Mexican exceed
ed one hundred thousand dollars,
while Ophir produced nearly $4,000.
Con- Virginia also added its share
and several of the small mines made
substantial showing. The month
OF June shows the old Comstock pro-
ducing in the neighborhood of $500,
coo. Prospecting in other sections OF
the Comstock on the lower levels is
showing ore. AT the present time it
looks Ike the old lode was destined
to make a record for the year When
the annual statistics are figured up
Virginia City will be credited with a
big sum of coin and the bullion tax
man will have some interesting data
to hand the pubic.

Busted Bank
Pays Dividend

This morning Attorney SANFORD
made application before the bank
ruptcy court for power to declare a
FIVE cent dividend to the creditors OF
the Merchants and Miners Bank,
which failed at Rawhide about three
years ago.
At the time OF the failure it looked
like a hopeless case. The funds
were exhausted and the securities
seemed to be worthless. Through
careful nursing on the part OF Re
ney Sanford, considerable amount
of money has been collected and a
number OF notes and other collateral
has been converted into coin. A con-
siderable amount OF the assets were
destroyed at the time of the fire in
Rawhide which reduced the sum
available to a considerable extent.
Among the securities held were a
number of diamonds. They went
through the fire but were apparently
little damaged. They have been sold
to an advantage since that time.
1t is believed that second divi-
dend of FIVE cents will be declared
and there is possibility OF others
From an absolute and what appear
ed to be hopeless failure the above

One account worth $4,000 was sold
for ten dollars some time ago. The
purchasing party turned it for $50

count will more than break even on

Put up Signs
for Autos

1t is time that signs were placed on
the roads leading into this city warn
ing auto drivers that there is speed
limit through this burg. This morn
ing two California autos came into
town and up main street at rate OF
speed which if maintained in any
town in California would land the
driver for fine. Twenty miles an
hour would not touch them
Signs should be posted at the city
limits warning drivers not to exceed
the speed limit With such signs up
there is no excuse and the first party
hitting it up through Carson should
be fined. A few such examples
would do the business
The good road leading through this
city is used as a speedway. If it is
necessary to use it as speed course
into causlty track for all who want
it. Either enforce the speed limit or
take off the regulations. Make it a
race track or bar the horse lovers
and women and children from the
thoroughfares.
1t is not at all necessary to wait
until some outsider comes along and
breaks the ordinance in order to
pinch him for a fine There are
plenty OF local speeders who know
the law and would answer the pur-
pose better and perhaps it would
teach them that the ordinances of
this city are to be respected They
should be enforced or repealed
