The Lexington Dispatch Wednesday, October 15,1902. Roosevelt a Democrat? Inasmuch as Mr. Boosevelt is not representative, but is distinctly unrepresentative, of his party, in respect to the two most important controverted questions now under discussion in this country, we are unable to perceive the logic of his candidacy, if it is to be viewed in the light of principle. Viewed in the light of politics, it is not only logical but necessary, imperative Avon that, the Republican party should make him its candidate two years hence. Very likely Mr. Piatt and his associates have in mind the politics of the situation rather than the principle. Putting the thing the other way about, it might be said that the Bepublicans are not a logical party for Boosevelt. If he would advance to the position of McKinley as to reciprocity in general, and if the Democrats, now hopefully reor. ' ganizing their forces, could expel from the party system the various Populistic poisons implanted during the Bryan debauch, the President would logically stand much nearer to that party then to his own.

A narrow residential street may be a very attractive one if tbe houses stand well back from tbe street line, with pleasant grounds about tbem. In a growing town, however, tbe daDger from such conditions comes from the liability to convert tbe street to business purposes, or to erect more compactly disposed dwellings. If business comes in, the transition is commonly marked by jagged lines. Commercial structure, often of a cheap and undesirable aspect, are built oat to tbe street, while tbe dwellings stand recessed back at irregular intervals. And when at last tbe street is fully occupied for business purposes, it is altogether too narrow; tbe roadway and the side walks are cramped; and often a widening has to take place at the public expense. If built up to the lice with dwellings, the street is likely to lack air aBcf sunshine, and the tendency is toward squalid conditions. An excellent remedy for these evils is offered in the Massachusetts law that empowers municipalities to established building lines at any def sired distance back from the street line. When such a line is established, no building can be erected on the intervening space. The municipality acquires an easement in this strip of land, which can still be used by the owner for anything but building purnoses. and. on the establishment of such a line, owners may claim damages, as in case taking for a street widening. It is, however, commonly jnore of a benefit than a damage to \ave property thus restricted, for it J^hows a more permanently desirable character to the street; and in case a street widening should ever be called for, no obstacle will stand in the wa): by taking the restricted strips there will be ample room for the wider roadway and sidewalks. Ideals for attractive street planning are to be found in many parts of the United States. There is nothing more charming as a rural street than that of a New England village at its best?lofty aisles of leafage; the trees with feet in a carpet of turf at the sidewalk border; the houses, quiet and unobtrusive, standing well I back, and marked with the true home character, whether they are humble cottages or abodes of the rich. The noblest development of such rural streets is to be found in the old towns of the Connecticut valley and in Western Massachusetts. There the main highways have an extraordinary generous width, often giving room for quadruple rows of o'd elms and broad spaces for turf, the roadway requiring only a small space in the total width of the thoroughfare. Do Good?Its Pays. A Chicago man has observed thai-, j "Good deeds are better than real j estate deeds?some of the latter are worthless. Act kindly and gently, show sympathy and lend a helping hand. You cannot possibly lose by it." Most men appreciate a kind word and encouragement more than substantial help. There are pereons in this community who might truthfully say: "My good friend, cheer up. A few doses of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will rid you of your cold, and there is no danger whatever from pneumonia when you use that medicine. It always cures. I know it for it has helped me out many a time." Sold by J. E. Kaufmann *4 4 T juewuci' iwu&sa. First Assistant Postmaster General Wynne has issued a circular letter to the postmasters of all rural free delivery post offices, instructing them that postmasters and rural free delivery carriers are not permitted to condemn the letter boxes used by patrons. The order directs that they shall continue to serve boxes already erected until a regular inspection of such boxes can be made by the route inspectors and special agents, who will condemn the boxes found unsafe or which otherwise fail to meet the requirements. The entire force ? * e j.i! ; 01 rural iree delivery luupeciurs ie now investigating petitions for such service, and these box inspections probably can not be made for a month or two. There will be 14,000 rural free delivery postal routes in operation on July 1 next, and the estimate for appropriations for the next fiscal year provides for 12,000 more. Forty Years' Torture. To be relieved from a torturing disease after 40 years7 torture might well cause the gratitude of anyone. That is what DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve did for C. Haney, Geneva, O. He says: * "DeWitt's Witch Hazel cured me of piles after I had suffered 40 years." Cures cuts, burns wounds, skin diseases. Beware of counterfeits. J. E. Kaufmann. The Phenomenal of the Age. The phenomenal growth of cotton ? ii ji # manuiac: .ring in toe soum la one 01 the meet interesting industrial developments of the 8ge. The present generation witnessed the practical beginnings of the movement, and the claims then made that eventually the southern mills would dominate the cotton manufacturing trade of the world, seemed preposterous, yet that domination is now measurably in sight. As late as 1890 southern mills consumed considerably less than a third as much cotton as the i f northern mills, and took le39 than a quarter of the entire consumption of the country. Today cur mills consume practically as much as the northern mills, thereby dividing with them the total amount of cotton consumed. When it is said that there is danger of building too many cotton mills, nobody so far as we know believes it. The fact is that all the mills that are under good ! business management are paying good dividends. America's Famous Beauties Look with horror on Skin Eruptions, Blotches, Sores, Pimples.

Philadelphia, October 9?At tbe office of President Baer, of the Beading road, the report printed in this morning's papers that he had resigned is denied.

Price 50c Claim of $50,000 Compromised New York, Oct. 3 ?A claim of $50,000 made against the estate of the late Marcus Daly, the copper magnate, by the Confederate Memo rial association has been compro {nised. The heirs of the millionaire have agreed to give $20,000 in settlement of claims and the suit has been discontinued. Mr. Daly in October, 1899, subscribed $50,000 to the Confederate Memorial association for the purpose of erecting a building in memory of Confederate soldiers. At the time of his death the sum promised remained unpaid. The executors refused payment, and suit was brought in the Supreme court. Goes Like Hot Cakes.
