GOVERNOR DIX NOT ALARMED
Calls Action of Supervisors Part
of Highway Campaign.

Albany. June 1O.-Governor Dix, who re-
turned TO Albany to-day from New York
did not appear 10 be disturbed over the
action OF the Albany County Board OF Su-
pervisors IN authorizing the institution OF
proceedings to prevent the construction OF
good roads provided FOR by special acts OF
the Legislature. The Governor is Of the
opinion that the action is part OF a cam
paign begun i'm behalf Of the State High
way Commission, which 1t is proposed 10
abolish.
He believes that the people Of the state
will not tolerate delays in the construction
OF the state highways. and that II the
special highway laws approved this year
are unconstitutional because OF inequitablf
distribution. then practically all good roads
legislation before he took Office is illegal.
The Governor. II was stated signed tht
special highway laws so as TO expedite the
work Attention was called 10 the fac
that while New York County pays half the
state tax, II will not receive any highway
improvements under the highway law. L
was also stated that efforts are being made
by representatives OF some counties to alter
the state routes in order 10 have theii
counties profit by the plan which provides
for the payment OF the entire work by th'
state, such as state routes.

sit and listen and look upon it while
il is described by some expert.
please do not understand, however,
from all that l say about foreign par
uciration, that l under-rate in the
slightest degree the importance of ma
t,onal and state representation and at
tendance, l am discussing the foreign
side because that is the feature with
which l am most familiar-the ma
tional, the state and the county par
ticipation will, in sense, take care
of itself. The foreign is that which is
the most difficult to obtain and which
provides just the touch and influence
which makes an exposition great. The
international phase is the rounding out
without which, no matter how compre-
hensive and attractive it may be in its
national and state exhibits, it will be
incomplete in the views even of our
home people. The very fact, more
over, that Europe, Asia and South
America are going to participate on a
large scale will be a powerful infiu-
ence in making all the cities of the
United States take part, and the peo-
pie of all sections of the country at.
tend in large numbers.
when you have your ground-break-
ing ceremonies, l would advice you to
invite all the ambassadors and minis
ters of foreign governments in Wash.
irgton. 1t may be impossible for them
to come, but they will appreciate the
courtesy. While speaking of this, let
me urge upon you to show in all your
plans, courtesy and attention to the
consuls Of foreign countries in San
Francisco, Do not forget that they
have direct approach to the foreign of,
fcers of their governments, and all
| the courtesies you show them, and all
the information with which you sup
ply them will go through a direct
! channel to their home governments
There is too much of a tendency IL
the United States to forget the i'm
portance of foreign representative
and to neglect that consideration o
them which is their due.
In conclusion, l have this assm
ance to give you. While it is nc
= within my power to state that tn
| countries of Latin-America will az
2 cept your invitation and participate,
can assure you that l shall recon
r mend to them to accept your invit
o ton and participate on a large seal
: which will be a credit to them an
you alike"

ANCIENT AND MODERN DRAMA.
In all drama which would give di.
rect expression to reveries, to the
speech of the soul with itself, there
is some device that checks the rapid
ity of dialogue. When Oedipus speaks
out of the most vehement passions
he is conscious of the presence of
the chorus, men before whom he
must keep up appearances, children
latest born of Cadmus' line" who do
not share his passion Nobody is
hurried or breathless. We listen 20
reports and discuss them, taking part,
as it were, in a council of state. Moth
ing happens before our eyes. The
dignity of Greek drama, and in a less.
er degree of that of Corneille and
Racine, depends, as contrasted with
the troubled life of Shakespearean
drama, on an almost even speed of
dialogue, and on a so continuous ex-
clusion of the animation of common
life that thought remains lofty and
language rich. Shakespeare, upon
whose stage everything may happen,
even in the binding of Gloster, and
who has no formal check except what
is implied in the slow, elaborate
structure of blank verse, obtains time
for reverie by an often incumbering
euphemism, and by such loosening of
his plot as will give his character the
leisure to look at life from without.
Maeterlinck, to name the first modern
of the old way who comes to mind
reaches the same end by choosing, in
stead of human beings, persons who
are as faint as a breath upon a look
ing glass, symbols who can speak q
language slow and heavy with dreams
because their own life is but a dream
Modern drama on the other hand
which accepts the tightness of the
classic plot, while expressing life di
rectly, has been driven to make in
direct it's expression of the mind
t which it leaves to be inferred fror
: some commonplace sentence or ges
+ ure as we infer it in ordinary life

The Work In Ohio.

State Master Laylin gives some in
teresting figures concerning work in
his state. 1t says that Ohio is making
steady, substantial growth, forty-three
oranges having been added during the
year-twenty-eight new ones, eight re
organized, three Pomonas and four iu-
veniles-and 4,799 new members were
gained, this being the greatest an
nual gain in thirty-three years. \
large number of Ohio oranges own
their halls. Quite a number were built
last year. More grange fairs were held
than in any previous year, and the de-
mand for grange speakers for picniCs
was unprecedented. Many county fair
organizations provided halls for grange
exhibits and provided grange speakers
as attractions. The secretary's report
showed that the total receipts last
year were S12,377.57, itemiZed as fol
lows: S9,735.S0 from membership dues
and initiation fees, $2,091.03 from sun
dry sources, S43S.74 from sale Of sup
plies and SIP from sixth degree fees.
The expenditures totaled S11 ,43O.S1. of
which $1,54930 was paid to the ma
tional grange for membership dues.
leaving net surplus of S946.7G. The
treasurer reported the total resources
Of the state grange as $26 463. Is, di-
vided thus: Bonds, $4,000; mortgage
notes, $1,000; cash, S5,963.1S. The SUI
perintendent of Juvenile oranges re-
ported that Ohio now has fifteen of
these oranges, four having been organ
lied the past year. The Juvenile mem
bership totals about 300, and the chill
dren are very loyal to their obligations
and take intense pride in the rituals
tic work.
