_ oo—oo ROADS.
Road-making isn't a winter-time
job. and” yet the winter is usually the . banks and not with him, and was only -t-.-
time when good roads plans are made
for execution during the following
open season. Numerous states will
this winter outline their good roads
work for the season to follow, and
many of them are likely to profit. by
the good example which Connecticut.
set. them during the season of the gen.
‘ oral assembly which sat during the
first seven months or so of the pres-
, ent year. Favorable comment, indeed,
on Connecticut‘s action in the- road-
making matter is general. Recently the
New York Commercial was prompted
to make the following editorial note
of it: ..
“In Connecticut not only has the leg-
islature done its part. in enacting a
new good roads law, but the towns are
very promptly availing themselves to
the limit. of the apportionments aggre-
gating considerably over a million dol.
Jars for road construction. With over
two, million miles of public roads in

' interested.
the entire country the field for im-
provement is ample and it is to be
hoped that more legislation of the Con-
necticut type may he had in other
states.”
The actual benefits to be derived
from the new expenditure for good
roads under the recent law are of
course yet to be determined. ut it
can hardly be doubted, in the light of
past experiences, that they will be
large. Other commonwealths are likely
to watch carefully the results we ob-
‘ min. Ont~ own people will be no less
But there is every confi~ '
deuce here in the efficacy of the new
low and in the judgment of the man
.who is supervising its execution.
DON'T TALK HARD TIMES.
.———_..
Do All You Can to Maintain Confl-
dence in the Situation.
times depend not. only upon
the great laws of supply and demand,
but upon the maintenance of public
confidence, says Success Magazine.
Fear and distrust. are fatal enemies of
confidence. The moment business men
get scared and people begin to talk
hard times, distrust. spreads like
wildfire. Level-beaded men say they
see no real cause for alarm, bill at the
some time the perpetual suggestion
which is being passed along influences
them, and they ‘grow more cautious.
Bunkers see no breakers nbeud. yet
they think that they should be conser-
vative, and they begin to cull in their
loans, which are not. quite so gilt-edg-
ed as before. They are also more care-
ful about accommodating their bor-
rowing customers, so that they may be
a little better prepared in case any-
thing adverse should happen.
These precautions spread. Distrust,
door, anxiety, a feeling of uncertainty,
like the rising tide of gossip, sweeps
like wildfire all over the country. Soon
everybody is talking hard times; all
are Influenced by the contagion of the
perpetual fear of suggestion. Cautious
men think perhaps they have been
spreading out a little too much, and
they begin to retrench, discharge help,
and cut. down salaries and expenses
generally. Mercantile houses, manufac-
tories, railroads, and other concerns
stop extensions and improvements and
take in sail until all danger is past.
As a consequence public confidence
is shaken and there is a. general
strangulation of business all over the
country. important contracts, the erec-
‘ tion of large buildings, and extensions
‘
, negotiations are called off. There is a
marked decline in business transac-
tions of all kinds. Nobody has confl.
deuce to branch out; everybody is
hedging.
Such a condition of things began
,, with the recent investigation and pro-
secution of certain great combina-
tions of capital. After the investiga-
j tionthese great concerns begun to re-
trench. and when the whole country

SCHOOL FENCE AN EYESORE.
Residents In the Vicinity Want to
Know Why it Is Not Removed.
To the Editor:
In the name of common decency, l
desire to ask why the Franklin street
school fence has not been taken down
as promised some time ago? How
much longer are our wives, daughters
and children to be subjected to inde-
cent oxposnres on the premises?
Residents of Crescent Terrace and
surrounding streets cannot sit upon
their porch in pleasant weather with-
out a blush of shame coming to their
faces. and there is no occasion for
the officials to maintain such a uni-
sancc.
Had they not been advised of such
actions, it Would be quite different,
but when spoken to they say, “Just,
as soon as the yard is cleaned up, the
fence will come down," etc.
Investigation shows that the yard
has been cleaned up nearly two
monthsnow, and filings remain the
same. It's a. shame and an outrngc
to expect taxpayers to put up with
such a slate of affairs.
Respectfully,
F. 13. WILRERT.

SAVED HI‘S COMPANION.
Jacob Scherer, Aged 9, Jumps Intl a
Creek After Florence Hartfan.
NEW YORK, Nov. 19.—Jncob Scher-
er, 9 years old, saved a companion,
Florence Hartfan, 10 years old, from
drowning in Cromweil's Creek, The
Bronx, Sunday afternoon. The boy
saw her fall from the piling surround-
ing the playground near McComb‘s
Dam bridge, and although there were
many spectators he jumped into the
water and dragged the girl to a place
of safety before they seemed to real‘
ize what had happened. Then several
men pulled them up with ropes. ‘
The children have lived in the same
house for a long time, 149 East. 149th
street. Jacob is a chunklly built little
chap and a good swimmer. Both were
badly used up and It took the efforts
of a doctor from Lebunnon hospital to
pill them on their feet.
Jacob afterward was made much of
by the crowd and when interviewed
by the reporters proved a. good sub-
jcct.
“i‘d doitagnln lnnmlnute,” he said,
“If I thought 1 could be of any help."
TRACTION PROMOTERS TESTIFY.

gcrs. Brady sold the Wall and Court-
land Street Company. which owned
nothing but. a franchise. for $905,000.
of which he kept 8250.000 and paid
