Born in Philadelphia, Sept. 11, 1744. Amenities of March :Fourth. Minneapolis Journal: The-New York World suggests that the pleas- ant relations existing between Presi- dent Taft and Governor- Wilson are a happy augury for the fourth of next March. There will be, in its opinion, no trouble about getting the same carriage-to ride to the capitol. Mr. Taft would be glad to ride with Mr. Wilson, while it is doubt- ful whether he could be crowded into an auto with the other candidate. He would hardly enjoy a spin down the avenue with the Theodore.” But the 'World is mistaken in say- ing that John Quincy Adams was once “dear the only president who refused to welcome his successor. Andrew Johnson did not ride with General Grant in the spring of 1869. He did not even go to the capitol, but remained at the White House sign- ing papers almost up to the moment when General Grant, having been inaugurated was on his way to. take possesison of the executive mansion. Then Johnson and several members of his cabinet beat a precipitate re- treat, leaving the coast Grant. clear for Some Big Road Figures. Logan Waller Page, who is direc- tor of the office of public roads at Washinton, is a practical road build- er and a goods roads Not long ago the Pioneer printed a enthusiast. series of articles by him upon the value to the community of adequate road systems and the work being accomplished under government aus- pices in educating the people to the necessity of building well and per- manently. Though a government official, he is no believer in national road systems nor in the use of federal money for road purposes in the states. This, however, because the cost is so enormous that the govern- ment could not meet it, though the vast sums seem less when divided up among counties and communities immediately benefited. Some of the figures Mr. Page gives in an article in World’s Work take the breath away woth their tremen- dous array. He says he has met, in his travels, people who seem to think the government should build all of the arterial roads and that all that is necessary is for congress to vote these roads into existence and the work is done. They know nothing of the cost and less of the revenue of the nation. He floors them with these statistics: The national revenue is annually only about 600,000,000, and merely to sprinkle with water our 2,250,000 miles of road for one summer season ‘would cost approximately $178,000,- 000; to construct this mileage prop- erly would require at least $22,500,- 000,000, and to maintain these roads after construction would cost about $T.125,000,000 yearly. These appalling figures, however, ‘were unnecessary as proof that a distribution of federal funds among the states for road purposes is im- possible. The states, with their units of cities and counties, must take care of their own highway systems, and must not be discouraged by the mil- lions and millions of cost which Mr. Page flings about so freely. THIS IS MY 68th BIRTHDAY\ Marquis of Ormonde. The Marquis of Ormonde, one of the best known of the Irish peers,: was born in Kilkenny Castle, Oct. 5, 1844. He is a collateral descend- ant of the famous cavalier leader, the Duke of Ormonde, some of whose ‘titles ‘he bears. He was educated at Harrow and for some years was an officer in the British army. In 1876 he was married to Lady Elizabeth Grosvenor, daughter of the wealthy Duke of Westminster. The Irish es- tate-of the Marquis of Ormonde em- 1863—Gen. Bragg began the bom- bardment of Chattanooga. 1878—Marquis of Lorne appoint- ed Governor General of Canada. 1908—Bulgaria proclaimed her complete independence. ANOTHER . KIND OF -FINANCE. Norman B. Mack, who is a politician and who, therefore, never tells any- thing but the truth, relates this story about himself: “On one of my trips to New York I had to visit a bank that is not very well known. I got mixed up, in my sense of location, and finally I asked 8 newsboy to direct me to the build- ing, telling him that I would give him half a dollar for his services. He agreed and led me to the bank, which was only four doors away. “‘That,’ I remarked, as I gave him the money,-‘was half a dollar easily earned.’ 3 “‘I know it,’ he said, ‘but, boss, you must remember that bank directors are paid. high in New York.’”—Popu- lar Magazine.
