The Chamble8s Roadtown
There are many skeptical people
in the world and when ome vaat
new project la spoken of they shake
their beada aid say It can't be done.
Not long slnoe the man who prophe
sied that an airship, fitted up with
mahogany compartment and a ree
taurant, woula be bnilt and carry
passengers, would have been declared
buggy-" Yet Zeppelin carried 82
people 800 miles last week and fed
them in midair So the roadtown
may not be aa impractical aa
sounds.
The Roadtown la a line of city pro
jeoted through the country. This
strip of ofty ia in the form of con
tinuous house, with a subway in the
oellar, bnilt in the country.
The effect ot a Roadtown passing
through a fanning community will
probably be like that of the spring
ing up of a new town. It will In
crease the value of the farmers land
nd will give this benefit to more
farmers than the old fashioned round
towns, because a town in a line Conors
oluae to more open land than a town
in a circle, says Milo Hasting in
Success Magazine. "
Tha "Roadtown brings with It the(
transportation, the markets, the life
and gaiety ol the city. The farmer
will patiouise it co operative stores
and its t'aeatres aud lecture balla aa
be doe those of a city. He will run
his 'phone wire in to connect with j
the Roadtown system, bny a loud
speaking telophore aud lie in bed
Sunday morning and hear the lioad
town preacher.
The fin Roadtowne will doubtlee
lie filled by ciaftvmen, villagers, oity
com m ultra and people going back to
to the soil. The Brat effect of the
tVa dtown upon the farmer will be
that It bring a city near blm ; the
next effect will be that ha will be
come a member of tbe city. How
fast and bow far thia change will be

With tbe adjournment of Congress
a brief review of what legislation
has been accomplished will be In
place, am It will be found that the
record of tbe present Congress has'
seldom, if ercr been excelled in the
number and In the iiripoi tauce of the
bill passed. Thlrty-eix thousand
bill were offered during the s tMlon
twenty. seven thousand by tbe
House and Dine thousand by the
Senate, to say nothing of hundreds
of resolutions on a variety of subjects.
a no previous session have so many
billa been presented.
With reference to those reform
movements whloh have become
known as the bill of the President'
program", there are many instances
of accomplishment.
Perhaps first in Importance la the
establu-hment of postal savings banks.
Then a revision of the railroad
law involving the creation of a coin
mission court.
Tbe admission of the states of New
Mexico and Arizona as separate
states, raining the number of sover
eign states in the Union to forty-eight.
A very important bill was that
giving to tbe President unlimited au
thority to withdraw public lands for
conservation purposes. Under tlrs
aot the President was granted power
to withhold lands from settlement
and to conserve the water power, and
at tbe me time tbe aot provided for
the agricultural entry of coal landa
which will open to settlement, it ia
said, as much as sixty million acre,
reserving at the same time the coal
right to the government.
The Increase of tbe Navy, while
not including many ships of the first
class, waa significant in the fact that
there were appropriations for two
battleships of 27,000 tons each. These
are to be armed with 14-Inch guns,
whioh it la said will make them
more formidable than any battleships
on the seas. There were appropria
tions also for four toped o-boat de
alt yen, two colliers and four subma
rines, and an increase of three thous
and seamen was provided for in tbe
bill.
The publicity campaign bill is eon
sidered one of great importance in
that candidates most within a abort
time after election publish the a-
mount of campa-'gn contributions.
A bill authorising an appronrla
tion of twenty millions in certificates
of indebtedness to continue reclama
tion prefects was passed.
Also a bill creating a Bureau of
Mines.
A bill appropriating $250,000 for
the support of a tariff board was an
other of the President's bills that had
muoh opposition before it waa finally
passed.
Bills looking to the suppression of
traffic in white slave!, providing
new tariff Bystem for the Philippine
Islands, promoting prohibition in the
Hawaiian Islands, creating a com
mission to consider economics In the
management of the national govern
ment, were other Important enact
ments. $300,000 was appropriated for the
raising and removal of the wrecked
battleship Maine In Havana Harbor,
Cuba.
Among the measures which failed
to pass, although it waa well known
that the President favored them, was
a ship subsidy bill ; an antl injunc
tion bill; a bill for new form of gov
ersment in Alaaka and also In Pana
ma; also bills to create a bnreaa of
health, providing Increased rates of
postage for seoond-class mall matter
and to establish tbe the Appalachian
Foreat Reserve.
Taken all In all, this has been a re
markably strenuous Congress, and
there ia no doubt but that a record !
has been set which will be a stimu
lating example to succeeding Con
gresses. Apart from tbe reformative
and progressive legislation above re
f erred to, Congress has In a conspic
uous way reformed It.elf a a deliber
alive and parlimentary body. It has
taken power from tbe Speaker. It
has reformed its ayatem ol conduct
ing business, and ita organisation for
work ia more effective now than it
was st the beginning of the session.
The Speaker baa been removed from
tbe Committee on Knlea end a new
rule baa been adopted which, it ia
thought, will prevent .withholding
bills by committees when such bill
have the spproval ol the majority of
the House without regard to party.

THE LOVE SONG
Ping tonight that pretty song
You sang whon first we met:
The words are ringing In my ear,
1 never can target
How aweet your voice, tha sympathy
That your notes expressed.
And when yon finished tba laat line
I your soft white hand pressed.
You tried to hide your blushes dep
But you failed and I oould see
By tha kindling In your ayes
That, you, too, eared for me.
Tonight there seems no lapse of years
Though twenty-five have flown
Ton an dearer bow to me than then
My first, laat, only one
go alng and play that song again
And my eyea I'll oloaa
And sne yon aa I did that sight
Robed tn blue, a simple row
FaatoDed In your chestnut hair,
It waa by your'ebeeks outvied.

ATTRACTIONS
An article In the North American
last Bandar sounds the praises of
Milford as follows, and It is all true.
Auto busses that carry vacation so
journers from Port Jervia to plotor-
esque Milford are taxed to their ca
pacity, and the town is filling with
summer visitors.
Milford haa grown to be an unusu
ally popular resort. The reasons for
this are obvious to any one who bat
ever visited here. There are no mo
squitoes, aud healthfulness Is one of
the ohief attractions.
The water is like crystal, and so
cool that Ice ia seldom used. Tbe
purest mountain springs supply the
reservoir.
The air Is sweet and dry, and the
brotzes that blow, no matter from
whence they come, are Impregnated
with the odor of pine and hemlock.
The nights are always cool, snd
the sleeper Is never rudely awak
ened at early dawn by locomotive,
factory or steamboat whistle.
Milford is an up to-date town, sur
rounded by mountains on three sides
and the picturesque Delaware river
is on the east. Forests and meadow
farm lands, magnifioarit water falls,
trout streania, precipitous rugged
cliffs, echoing ravines, mountain
lakes, wood roads and stone high
ways the joy of the motorists, are
among the advantages.
The Delaware r iver affords good
fishing. The lakes are well stocked
with pickerel and oamplng parlies
enjoy the pleasures ot outdoor life on
their shores.
The Milford Field Club will open
its new clubboure next week, Tennis
croquet, quoits and bowling are
among the sports that It offers. Tour
naments ot various kind will be
held later In the season.
