REMOVING CIRCUS BILLS.

Whether 1t is for economys sake or otherwise, the motive which prompts the removal of the large circus posters by the show people the day of the performance as was instanced this week is one which is due for much commendation. The billing of a town means the covering of fences and buildings with large colored posters positions of prominence and contribute to the unsightliness of a city for many subsequent weeks. It is in direct op- position to the efforts being under taken in behalf of a city beautiful Much expense is attached to sSch bills and 8 considerable saving can be eff fected through the repetition in their use or that portion which is not af- fected by the date.
 The removal is therefore to the financial advantage of the circus but it is an ideal thing for every city to have it done. There is nothing worse than a lot of buildings covered with such gaudy posters which continually grow worse with age. The economy of the circus manager offers a sug- gestion to every city, or property own CT where such posters are displayed and that is that whenever circuses are given the privilege of making such display, the bills should be removed after the date of the show. The or dinary billboards about city are bad enough without city carrying through the summer the pictures and adver- Using signs of a long forgotten cir

 Barbara reported a little concerning her previous visitor finishing with, She said was not a Christian, and should report me as undeserving anything from her people"
 Never mind what she says, Gn- doubtedly she means we'll, and Der sn- ciety may not be so rigid as she is. She is not worth minding. But you know l do not pretend to be Chris tian MT. Grandberg and I are of the Jewish faith. We know our friends, however. and like to make other people happy when we can. MT. Brown was deserving and so are you. Now l have plan which I want you to con- slider. and favor us by accepting it if you see fit We have decided to come to the city to reside for the winter, and want care -taker for our summer place. There is a cottage on the place which you could have, and your duties would not be heavy. Will you take the place? We will pay you wei for the work, and you will find the cottage supplied with many things. School and church are near by so the younger E MT. Grandberg needs another cash boy in his store, and hopes you can spare Edwin for that. He could come in and out on the trolley, you know and he is old enough to leave school for time at least Now, what say you? Are you willing to try the plan for the winter? Another spring may find you better placed. but for the present we should feel it favor to us if you would try it'

You have taken a burden of care and worry from me already was feeling so friendless, and you have proved yourself a friend in need. I can never thank you enough for what you have done for me, but will do my best to repay you by faithful service
 And I am sure you will succeed" responded Mrs. Grandberg. Then we will consider the matter settled shall we? I feel as if the favor was en- tirely to us. How soon can you come ?"
 Very soon," replied Mrs. Brown. T should not care to begin another months rent here. and can come inn mediately if desired"
 So a few days saw them settled in their new home. and found them happy in their strange surroundings To the children the country was a delight for they knew little of it, and the autumn was not far enough advanced to pre- vent their enjoying the woods and their treasures before winter set in.
 Barbara carried a sad heart with her. and at every turn missed and mourned the companion she had lost but for the chiIdren's sake she tried to be brave and cheerful, and in return found hap piness for herself. As time went on, affairs frightened for them. and life became easier, but whatever of pros perity came to her in later life she al- ways remembered the friend in mead who was a friend indeed.

THAMES NAVAL STATION.

Jn view of the trips of naval off, cidls along the Atlantic coast and their recent visit at the Thames naval sta ton for the purpose of inspection, it is but natural that there should be some concern as to the future of this government property. As it stands at present it is practically abandoned though it is admirably located to be of much value to the government as a coaling station for the smaller ships and as school for marines for which $60 900 was recently spent.
 It is the declared policy of Secre- tary Daniels that it is sheer extrav- agance to let such property go to rack and ruin. He is inclined to occupy naval stations or yards which have been given up in the scheme of con- centration and make use of them in- stead of sanctioning additional con- struction at other points. In connec- ton with the Long Island sound for tifications the Thames river station is possessed of peculiar advantages. For the government to give it up means the throwing away of it's investment there since the provision in the gift of the property was that it should revert to the owners heirs, if abandoned. while its use as a marine barracks as contemplated when the last outlay was made would be in the interest of economy. Too much has been expended there to be thrown away, yet it is time that some use was made of the possession.

WEAKENING FusloNs STRENGTH

Unusual interest is attached to the New York mayoralty campaign be- cause of the glarirg need of better conditions there, and the united opin- ion that such lies in combining against Tammany for the overthrowing of the intrenchments of that organization. The need of fusion should therefore receive the strongest support that can be given in placing before the voters the best candidate possible and a de- termination of the necessary qualifica- tions can be made from the record of accomplishments in behalf of just such improvement as is demanded. It might be unreasonable to suppose that even the best and strongest candidate to lead the forces of fusion, could be de- cided upon without a contest, but in the interest of subsequent success and the retention of the full benefit of flu sion the fewer the candidates for the nomination the better. The increase in the number is only inviting greater Reflection by splitting the forces which must be held together to succeed.
 The entrance therefore of John P Mitchell into the contest for the nom ination as the fusion candidate against Whitman and McAneny must be pleas ing to Tammany. All three are good men, but neither of the other candi- dates has given the demonstration that District Attorney Whitman has that they are constituted to accom- plish the needed reforms. The call for Whitman arises from his accomplish ments in the direction desired and he deserves the united support of an aroused public conscience.

MR. .MELLEN,s RESIGNATION.

In the present condition of railroad affairs in New England the public has got beyond the point of being sur prised, SO that when the resignation of President Charles 5. Mlellen of the New York, New Haven, and Hartford road was presented and accepted it was taken as a matter in line with the course of events which preceded it. President Mellen's departure from the road means the beginning of a new era in its history It means a change from that plan in which MT. Mellen may have been leader, but in which he was faithfully backed, for the development of New England. to something not yet annoanced. The resignation gives indication of a change in policy. If the idea of the past ten years waS.t to be carried out Mir MeIlen was the man to do it. Tn it's abandonment and reorganization another may inspire some cooperation, without the handicap aof the experience in the past few months.
 Though he retires under fire MT. Melen's ability as a railroad man can not be questioned. He has done mag nifcent uphill work for the railroad service in New England and the com mendation of the Interstate Commerce Commission, that the passenger ser vice was the best in the country and its freight service comparing favorably with other large lines. even though the commission was not friendly to the system. indicates that there is faint hope for improvement in that direction. barring the efforts for ad- ditional safety which are now well underway. The outlining of a new policy and a different attack on the roads problems can be expected in the future. unhampered by MT. Mel

UP TO THE DEMOCRATS.

With all the study which he has given to the value of the manufactur ing opportunity in Canada, and his statements concerning the reasons for establishing q factory across the bor der. Governor F'oss is going against democratic doctrine. Whether con sciousIy or not, he has given his par ty leaders the very opportunity which is needed to demonstrate that it is be- cause of the lack of efficiency, rather than the lack of reciprocity, or the value Of the high protective tariff of Canada which has caused him to de- eide to move portion at least of his manufacturing business out of the country.
 It was at the outset of the present administration, with tariff for. revenue only being. strongly urged, that the announcement WIS made that a care fui investigation would be made of all wage reductions, factory closings and removals which might be attributed to the tariff cut, for the purpose of demonstrating that such establish ments were not on the proper basis of efficiency. else they could compete with the foreign manufacturers.
 The tariff bill is in the making. The probabilities are only partially dis cernable and conditions throughout this part of the country at least show the effect of the uncertainties which have been caused by the proposals. II is time that the democrats began to demonstrate that they are not re- sponsible. if 1t is possible for them to do so.
