To Samuel Rea appeared the pos
sibilities of the great railroad system,
and out of the engineering department
OF the Pennsylvania he proceeded by
steady strides to the head of the en-
tire corporation. He was for a time
in the employ of the Baltimore and
Ohio, but it did not take the Pennsyl-
vania long to realize that he was too
valuable to be away from the organl-
cation which initiated him.
AS a superintendent of bridge con-
Struction and creator of road beds and
entertainments he followed out the best
additions Of engineering. His hold on
the art of railrOading, however, was
due to his ability to see big things far
ahead. His supervision of the work
of construction of the Pennsylvania S
tunnel under the Hudson and the East
rivers, and of the mOnume and
classic pile known as the Pennsylvania
station brought him the degree of Doc
tor of Science from the University of
Pennsylv when his giant task was
done. Rea was born September 81,
1865.

Pete, they don't get public snaps. and
they will stop him in the street and
bore him with their yaps. And he
will sit at night and sigh, and cuss the
awkward fares that put him in place
so high, where only trouble waits; no
nation has enough of pie to feed the
hungry skates. And those who fail to
get slice will say he is a fake, and
they will hand him chunks of ice when
he's expecting cake, and once a day
or maybe twice, his weary heart will
break. And he will walk with dra gging

will see he loses pep with every pass

Another Good Road Record

Wayne county boasts of many qualifications
that recommend it as an ideal place in which to
live. Diversificaton of industry, splendid farm
land and good marketing centers, good school
system and an excellent college, sound financial
institutions, and scores Of factors that are con-
sidered as vital in the appraisement of
munity.
We have known for some time that our road
system is superb. Motorists from many states
have compimented the county it's splendid
system. Now comes the compliment that Wayne
countys road system ranks third in the United
States, and that IS miles of continuous concrete
surface on the National road is the longest single
stretch in Indiana
Theories of road construction and nlainte-
nance have held advanced position in this
county for a number of years, owing, perhaps, to
the good judgment and diligence of County
Superintendent Jones. The distinction of Wayne
county, acquired by its splendid system, is a COM
pliment to his work. and ideas.

Mayor Zimmerman's efforts to defeat the
home rule bill will not get far, if it gets under
way at all. The voters want the optional right to
determine whether the majority of the citizens of
Richmond are satisfied with the municipal gov
eminent they have had in recent years.
His statement Monday furnishes the best
proof possible for the charge of the friends of
home rule that the present system leaves the
people at the mercy of the politicians No
political boss wants home rule. He wants the
right to reward friends with jobs and to punish
enemies by discharging them, something that
cannot be done under commission or man.
agerial form of city government in which fitness
to perform duties is the only test
The scores of citizens who will appear at the
public hearing next Thursday night will be pre-
pared to show conclusvely that a change in the
form of municipal government is as badly needed
as it is devoutly hoped for.
The average voter knows that even COM
mission or managerial form of government may
fail and that it may be unable to perform at the
highest point of efficiency at all times, but he
also knows that few cities which have adopted it
are willing to abandon it for the wasteful
political system of the old regime. The weak
nesses of home rule are infinitely fewer than
those of the political system.
Many of the members of the general assem-
bly, have had experience with the present system
and have been instructed by their constituents
to vote for the Knapp measure, which will give
the cities the right to choose if they want to
make change.
If the mayor makes canvass of Richmond he
also will discover that the voters are willing to
take chances with the system, tired most
of them are of the present regime.
