The Drake Colleges have an %mequaled record, as these
few photographs demonstrate. One great reason for such sue
cesses is that every student is taught individually and is treated
as if there were no other students in school. Individual desks,
the finest typewriter equipment that can be procured, teachers who are specialists
in their own branches, etc, etc. have brought about this record. The Newark
school is located at 67o Broad Street facing Military PARK, and occupies nearly
10000 square feet of space. The East Orange School occupies its own
SIS, 900 building, situated at the corner Of Central Avenue and Harrison Street,
East Orange. The schools open for the Fall term o September 3D. although

Carry Your WAGON,

A northern man who had recently
taken possession of a southern planta-
ton found that in many ways the peo-
pie spoke a different language from
his own. BY mistake a carload of sup
plies had been left at railway station
seven miles away and he was bothered
about getting it to the plantation.
why don't you carry your wagon up
and tote the things DOWN." a sympa-
thizing southerner asked him The
northern man laughed heartily at this
expression and repeated it to others.
Instead of laughing they looked at
him, wondering where the joke was,
and he realized that to carry" your
wagon and tote things back was the
proper idiomatic expression. He even
heard young men asking young ladies
If they might carry" them to dances.

Maryland's Primary Law.

In its haste to enact new primary
law the Maryland legislature seems to
have gotten only half out of the woods
toward an expression OF the popular
will as to candidates in national cleo
tions. The law provides that delegates
to State convention shall be elected
by popular vote, but leaves the selec-
tion of the delegates to the national
convention to the State body. This is
not selection of delegates by the voters,
and leaves the way open for pretty
nearly all the political intrigue which
has disgraced the old system for many
years.
1t would have taken only little more
courage on the part of the members of
the legislature and few more scratches
of the pen to have given the State a
primary law under which the delegates
to the national convention would have
been elected by popular vote, and to
have left them free and untrammeled
by the dictates of State convention
If the legislature was sincere in its
protestations that it was passing law
which would put an end to the pledging
of candidates to political conventions,
it evidently accomplished only half the
task, for It will be as easy as of yore
for designing politicians TO manipulate
the State convention to their sinister
purposes.
If the Maryland voters are to have
any real benefit from the new primary
law, it should be amended so as TO put
the choice of delegates to the national
convention straight up to the people
So far as a convention of delegates to
nominate State officers is concerned, the
new law is adequate, but not for the Sc
lection of men to represent parties in
the national convention to nominate a
President and Vice President of the
United States.

STATESMEN, REAL AND NEAR.
BY FRED c. KELLY.

Those sulphftish persons who are
always saying It's q small world after
all should consider the case Of Senator
Bryan. Of Florida, and Representative
John w. Davis, OF West Virginia.
Bryan and Davis were both graduated
from the law department Of Washington
and Lee University in 1ssS. On COM
mencement day they snook hands. saie
they would keep in touch with each other.
and then went their separate ways to
take up the practice Of law Each got
too busy TO keep track OF old college
associates. and after q few years Davis
didn't know whether Bryan was prae-
tieing law or selling baby alligators for a
living. Bryan knew just as little about
Davis.
Last March the two packed up their
trunks and came TO Washington 70 enter
Congress- They both happened to drop in
at the Senate restaurant the opening day
Of the new Congress-. and a mutual ae-
quaintance started 20 introduce them.

Change of Inauguration.


1t is good news to Washington, and
should be TO che nation. that the Com
mittee on Rules has decided to approve
the Henry bill providing for change
in the date of the Inauguration Of Presi-
dent and Vice President, and report
it to the House. This bill moves for
ward the time for the inauguration
ceremonies from March to the last
Thursday in April. 1t contains several
clauses relative TO the meetings Of Con-
gress and details made necessary by the
proposed change. But the main thing
is the setting of Inauguration day at a
season of the year more suitable to the
attendant outdoor exercises.
The subject has been before Congress
for a decade, and the change has been
specially urged since the blizzard the
night before the Taft Inauguration
three years ago. No valid argument
has been advanced against the proposal,
and if Congress expects TO pass law
effective in 1913 II should act now.
Every reason favors such action; the
country, when it considers the question
at all, is favorable, and all that waits
is the action of Congress giving the
necessary legislation for the change, un-
less it be decided that a constitutional
amendment is necessary, in which event
the quicker it is submitted to the States
the better for all concerned.

Army and Navy Disagreement.

Despite the fact that this is a Con-
gress preceding a Presidential election,
and as such may be expected to be a
record-making body, with every legisla-
tive effort applied to effecting econo-
mics at whatever cost, there is an un-
usual amount of service legislation be-
fore the military and naval committees.
The casual observer might well enter
tain the belief that this is no occa-
sion to submit to Congress any radical
changes in personnel conditions in the
military-naval establishment, yet there
are more important propositions before
Congress, measured by their far-reach-
ing effect, than for many years Of
course, it was TO be expected that
the Democratic House would produce
something revolutionary in its charac-
ter, since by that means only will it
be possible to make the necessary DEM
onstration in saving in the cost of our
system of national defense. The bill
known as the Hay bill, from its author,
who is the chairman of the House Mill
tary Committee, contemplates some
changes in the organization of the
army which have aroused the military
personnel TO vociferous objection. The
main remonstrance appears to be di-
rected against the proposal to reduce
the commissioned personnel by three or
four general officers and about fifty
officers of the line of less exalted rank.
By that means mainly will it be pos
sible for Congress to achieve any of the
economies wiiich the critics of the army
believe should be attempted. The House
Naval Committee has not yet made
known the particular form of outrage
which will be visited upon the naval
personnel in the name of economy.
What Congress will eventually do in
the direction desired by the econo-
niists no man may safely predict, but
it is realized that the determination Of
the Democratic leaders is sincere, and
it is not likely to be diverted from its
purpose by arguments and statistics,
with the hope OF rescue largely in the
Senate by way of disagreement in
whatever the House may do, and, final
ly, the decision with the eonferees in an
attempt to adjust the House and Senate
differences. The element which has
impressed observers of the situation
more than anything else has been the
lack of unanimiy among officers most
directly and vitally concerned in pend
ing or prospective legislation Those

Proposed National Roads.

1t is not only of public interest, but
the part of wisdom, that the good roads
convention has a well-dehned plan of
national highway building before it. In
fact, there are several plans, but one in
particular provides for a complete sys-
TEN of roads, 5I,o25 miles in length,
which would reach TO all important
points of the country. This plan is the
one worked out by the National High
ways Association, many of the members
of which are sitting in the body now
holding its sessions IN Washington.
This system of roads, which is to be
constructed at the expense of the ma
ton, is based upon three main high
ways extending across the continent,
called, respectively, Northern, Central,
and Southern. The Northern road ex-
tends from Boston to Seattle, across
New England and New York, slirting
the Great Lakes, and striking in almost
a straight line across the Northwestern
States to the Pacific coast Of course,
there are turns and diversions of route
10 suit the topography of the country
and to reach important points out of the
straight line. The Central route ex-
tends from Washington to San Fran
cisco, and the Southern follows a wind
ing course along the Gulf coast, Rio
Grande, and through Southern Cali
fornia to San Diego These three
routes are collectively II,27s miles in
length.
Transverse routes fitting into the
basic system are three IN number. ex-
tending along the Atlantic coast from
Calais, Ne, to Miami, Fla; from Du-
luth to New Orleans, and from Seattle
to San Diego. These are in the aggre-
gate 5,62s miles in length.
Trunk highways aggregating $4,000
miles bind these main highways of the
system together and connect them with
most Of the important points not
touched by the principal roads. Finally,
IoS2s miles of road are proposed to
fll in the links left open otherwise to
complete the system
The proposition is vast, slluring, and
may be impossible of accomplishment,
but it is well-digested plan. which

The board of aldermen of Petersburg

that the Index-Appeai is one of the
most carefully conducted papers in the
State, and, is OF the highest character,
this action seems a little remarkable.
But even II the paper were as yellow
