A SONG OF THE CITY.
Jerome Il. Bell.

On streets all dirty and torn,
Where comfort in traffic has fed
A man went humping DER paverncnts
worn,
And these are the words he said
Dirt, dirt, dirt
On every hand We meet;
BY filth and dust bcglrt,
No place is clean and neat"
And thus he sang,
With dolorous twang.
The Song OF the City Street"
Holes, holes, unhoiy holes,
All filed with dust. or mud;
Deep holes that fret your souls,
Til you are sweating blood;
And things you note,
When i'll moat
You drop with dullest thui,
Would make the angels swear;
And things you think
Would make those blink
Who for our streets should care.
Bump, I Jump, bump.
Tin all your body aches;
Thunp, bump, thump.
Until your auto breaks:
And fercely then
You curse the men
Whose hand your money takes,
But gives you init
TO show for it,
Yet laud themselves aloud
And Of their filth seem proud,
Slide slip, slide
Upon the slippery streets;
Or, dust on every side
Your nostrils hourly grcets,
While every deadly germ
On vacant lot
And people spot,
Is there to make you squlrm.
This is the case, and 80
We humbly ask to know:
Do our lordly city doors
Think our streets are city sewersy
What of our boosted wealth
How are We using it?
And the guardians of our healthl
Are they doing we'll their 'bitf''
While children die,
Should we not try
BY every means betit,
To turn aside
The deadly tide
That ls Staying with q two-cdge sword
Our pride aud the babes You gave ls,
Lord

The State s hoUid Be Fair.

The Treasury Department OF the state
has mailed TO taxables subject TO the
state Income Tax Law, statements Of the
amount due by each Payment must
be made by Saturday, June 5, by checks
or other remittances TO be forwarded TO
the office of the State treasurer at Dover
No doubt most taxables will pay this
tax as cheehully as taxes can be paid
The money coming from thus source will
be devoted to two very important pur-
poses public schools and good roads.
Both are IN need OF great deal Of money,
and Of that practical attention that can
only come from the use Of money So
there will be 8 large measure Of com
pensation.
There are two matters IN connection
with this tax, however, TO which the next
Legislature should give attention. One
Is the unjust requirement that taxsbies
must pay the notarial fee Of Is cents in
making affidavit to their returns of the
basis for assessment The other is the
imposition of postage on the taxables ii
making returns Of both statements and
taxes. The State should use
stamped envelopes in both instances, for
the purposes Of making answer. Com
pelling the taxable to stand for the stamps
is another imposition
These may seem like small matters,
but they are of importance Also,
principle is involved The State should
pay all the costs Of tax collection, large
and small 1t has no moral right to
impose upon the taxable, 50 long A. he
does not prove delinquent the slightest
part of the cost Of collection 1t is
enough for him TO pay the tax.

AMERICAN COMMANDERS.

The brigading of Americans with
French and British hitherto has meant
that the American fighters must serve
under French or British commanders
As the number Of American fighters in
creases, the conditions may change la
the near future, French and British
regiments may be serving under American
commanders.
Whenever the Americans numerically
predominant IN a unit the American officers
will be in command. 1t will be pleasing to
American pride.
But, in reality, it matters not at all
whether a French or British or American
brigadier commands French and British
and Americans are one ltaliaDs and
Portuguese and Beiglans are one. There
is but one cause and but one aim Ameri-
car soldiers will fight equally well under

be desired in this direction.
The complimentary comment arose
as the result OF the playing Of a
