ROAD ENGINEER IS ESSENTIAL
Expert Points Out Reasons Why High. way Improvement Work Is In-
 efficient in Many Places.

James Leland Stamford, a highway engineer who made a nationwide in- vestigatiOn of road work for the na- tiOnal committee on prisons, which is interested in promoting road build ing by convicts, says in regard to the lack of efficient supervision of road work generally:
 ''In A states county road work is carried on under the supervision of county commissioners in other states it is under the control of the sheriff. These authorities are not trained fer their work and the road work is cost ly and inefficient All counties carry ing on road work should obtain the services of county road engineer who is acceptable to the state road authori- ties and able to work in co-Operatio with them."

HUGHES NOT REAL LEADER
Republican Presidential Candidate Has Shown Himself to Be Merely
 Seeker After Office.

The World cannot rejoice at the ex- hIbition that MT. Hughes is making of himself. This country always needs wise, sagacious political leadership. It needs it in both parties. It needs a Republican who can do for the Re publican party what President Wilson has done for the Democratic party. It needs men who are 100 per cent lead er.; of political thought and political principle, and we used to regard MT. Hughes as such a man. To discover that he is only 100 per cent office seeker, and that he is ready to subor- dinate everything else to that ambi- ton, brings to the World a sense of keen personal loss.
 We feel that something very fine, very inspiring, has gone out of the pub lie life of the United States. We feel that the American people are poorer because a Hughes who was once 100 per cent a judge has turned his back upon his record and his traditions in order to become a Hughes who is merely 100 per cent a candidate.-New York World.

CAN'T UNITE PARTY
Hughes Not Able to Bring To-
 gether Opposing Elements.
That the Majority of Proeressives Will Vote the Republican Ticket Is Merely Dream of the Leaders
 of the Organization.

Colonel Roosevelt and the standpat leaders in the Republican convention thought the Progressives would come back to the old party with a rush. It was believed that the followers of the moose would fall over themselves in returning. Many of them talked that way and many of them lost no time in getting into line.
 But there never was a time when the rank and file of the Progressive Tarty was satisfied with RooSeveltS action. John NJ. Parker, nominated by the ProgreSsives as RooSeveltS run nIng mate, expressed the feeling doubtless, of the great majority of those who bolted the Republican party in 1912. The Republican organization lad become so boSS-ridden that no high-spirited man who loved social justice" and honorable dealing could remain in it.
 The ProgresSiveS took themselves seriously and in quitting the Repub- lican party most of them quit it for good. But of the 4,119,5 ,507 who voted for Roosevelt some were so loyal to the colonel that they followed him un- heSitatingly into the Hughes camp. But because some of the influential Progressives swore allegiance to Hughes and bossism, Chairman Will COX was encouraged to think that near ly all of them had returned.
 In New York state, where the Pro- pressives cast 39O,OOO votes, there is so much disaffection among them that it is doubtful if 10000 will vote for Hughes. Many thousands will remain independent, but large contingent is believed to have made up it's mind to vote the Democratic ticket.
 A reunited Republican party was only a dream. If the G. O. P. was a bad party in 1912 it is certainly no better now. It would take a stronger man than Mir. Hughes to unite the op- posing elements.

The dowagers and chaperons whis- pered their surprise that so young and so pretty a girl should have devoted herself the whole evening to a man so much her senior. True he danced well enough and was known as man of many millions. Still they had never thought Meta mercenary. .,4
 Half way through the evening the couple disappeared onto a balcony. The girl sat down and the man stood gaz- ing down at her. Without the slight est warning he asked her to be his wife. He was a widower, as she knew. Ts"I wanted to please you," she said, "but did not expect this"
 "It is the unexpected that happens" he said with a smile.

IMPROVE ROADS TO SCHOOLS
Massachusetts, Ohio and Indiana Lead in Number of Schools and in
 Better Highways.

There are about 2,OOO consolidated rural schools in the United States, with Massachusetts, Ohio and Indiana in the van. It is significant to note that about one-third of the roads in these states have been improved. The boy or girl, who formerly stayed away from school because the road was a sea of mud, is transported in school wagons which are sent out every day to gather up the children and to take them home again in the evening. All the children within a radius of several miles are thus provided with modern school facilities

Skirts and coats remain full, and for trim ming there is the choice of fur or fur fabrics, braid, buttons, and machine stitching. Skirts have been made longer also and appear in both ankle and instep lengths. But it remains to be proved that women will make fashion of this feature of the new models. The skirt cut to reach a lft- tie below the shoe top has so much to recommend it. For the street suit it

WEAKNESS IN HIS REASONING
Mir. Hughes Talks About Temporary Prosperity" Will Have Hollow
 Sound to the Voters.

Existing conditions of employment in New York resemble those reported by public employment bureaus in sur rounding cities and states. The pub lie employment bureau states that it has continuous orders for more helpers at 20 cents and laborers at 25 cents an hour than it can fill. The demand for skilled machinists greatly outruns the supply. Skilled workers in practically all lines are not hunting jobs the jobs are hunting them.
 That is all right enough in it's way. But what has it to do with MT. Hughes campaign for the presidency? :? He stated the employment issue in his speech of acceptance. It was that be- fore the outbreak of the European war lover 100000 were out of work" in New York city. That was in conse- quence of the Democratic tariff. This reversed situation is in consequence of something else. It is therefore temporary prosperity" The other condition must therefore have been permanent in it's nature. What exists ic accordingly not worth considering. What was is alone capable of proving his case.
 The Turks officially do not recog- nize their recent great disaster near the Suez canal, but bulletin in that connection Townshend's surrender of 12,O00 British at Kut-el-Amara pub lished three or four months ago. That is Mir. Hughes way of dealing with the great Republican disaster of ''tem- porary prosperity"

Every new question that arises but adds to the weight of the argument in favor of a navy fully adequate for the defense of the large and growing in terests of this country. The time is ripe. We have the money in abundance to pay. Public sentiment has been sounded, and approves. The pacifist who can see nothing in policy of pre- paredness but a conspiracy for advanc. ing militarism and navalism, and coin- ing money out of the manufacture of war munitions, gives his case away.-- Washington Star.

More Republican CIaptrap.

Augustus r. Gardner holds Secre- tary Daniels solely responsible for the failure of congress to increase the navy personnel in 1914. On that theory, Secretary Daniels must be entitled to the entire credit for the adoption of the new navy program. We used to think that congress had something to say about army and navy. appropria- tions. but after reading much Repub- lican criticism of the administration
 we have become convinced that the Constitution is wrong and that the secretaries make the appropriations.
