CONCERNING TRAFFIC.

While rules gov erning traffic are being considered it might not be q bad idea. to calr attention to some of the problems confronting foot traf- tic'' in this city. What other city would permit such conditions to exist as do on Park street. where a new factory building is being erected, or sucl. as have been existing on Rigelow street under similar circumstances? '? In many other cities. N hen a contrac- tor is compelled to block the sidewalk as on Park street, he is compelled to buld sui;asl lc.- boardwalk. around tue barriers so that pedestrians are not compelled to wade ankle deep through the mud and siush. on Bigc- low street the sal thing might hold little reason to permit the continued blocking of the sidewalk by piles of sand, and forth, after the major part of the construction work has been completed. Going further into the traffic situation. Bigclow street. especially during the spring, summer and fall nouths. is a place where some added rcSu; ;ationa arc essential A nprrow street. it is not wide enough to permit parking on both sides and still be available for general traffic. Parking on. one side or the other only. should be the rule. Also, the authorities ought to take some action to prevent the continued blocking of the sidewalk -thore.. It is common practice for the business houses 10 permit their auto trucks to drive part the .rdeWalk to redeat11anS.

bar the party adopting that platform from Am erican politics.
 The Socialist party always has advo- cated "revolution in many things, That this sort of revolution has been in keeping with the law abiding ideals of Americans has been accepted. It is up to the, New York Assembly to prove that the ''revoluton" is of vio- lent nature and advocates the over throw of the Government of the State of New York and ultimately of the United States itself. Had the asScnl- bly founded it's action in >uspendins ns5 the members upon tho personal be- hAVior of the members themselves. their task might have been sim pier. But in Suspendirg them beca use they were members of the Socialist party. the Assembly has struck q tough knot which will take d great deal of ta I'd work to cut ;.w;ty that their actions may be Justified.
 The judges in this particular case arc the accusers. and though that is bad for the Socialists on the surface it may prove a blessing for the party in the end.

THE OLD CUTTER.

What has become of the old-tinle cutter. drawn along at the terrific speed of five or six miles an hour by faithful old Dobbin, which. less than a decade. ago. was a familiar sight during uhc~wintCr on any of our highways? In those good old days of sleigh riding. which are fast disap- bearing. the merry tinkle of the sleigh bells breaking in on the cold stiffness of the mid-winter nights air was music to tn" ear. But now what is the sound we hear? It's the 'chug- chue" of an automobile motor aC- "ourpauicd by the clauking of the non-sIlid chains as the sons and daughters of the old time sleigh rid CTS now do their ''sieigh riding in 8 high powered motor car and at d speed of from five to SIX times as great aa old Dobbin could ever go.
