"All that haa been said in favor of good roads will stand repetition wlth¬ ont danger of being worn threadbare as long as the need for good roada continues to be as imperative aa now, ' is the pithy way in which the San An¬ tonio Kxpress commends constant hammering away at the subject.

Hnw much bet¬ ter it would be if nil the counties would follow tbe example of Mecklenburg and Wake and uss tho convicts on the publio roads.

The Qhoorkas who are doing muat of Great Britain's lighting nn the In¬ ilian frontier aro numbered amnng the best of all the Oriental snldiers. In the Burmese and Afghan enuipaigns they madu a name fnr courage and ten¬ acity that immensely raised the pres¬ tige nf tha liritiah arms. Probably they would appenr on continental bnt- tleliehla if (ireat Britain sliiuilil get into annther general war, that policy havinfp been clearly foreshadowed when, during nne nf the recurring ililflcultiea with Uuasia, Lord Bencnns- Held moved a few regimenta of them to Malta.   _______________
The fnct that $t;fl,0011,000 was ex¬ pended iu New York for buililing pur poses lust yenr is a signilicant illnstra tinn of tho great growth of the city. It ban been greater during thia decade, if all evidences are not deceitful, than in any pnst decade of our history. On one band the rapid development of the United Htutes, on the nther the growth }f Europe ill popiilatinn, hns helped In fnrce New Ynrk fnrivard in a way ivhich has mado Maiiliatlaii Island and the adjacent New York lerritory far loo sniall. Hence, we have na the rea' tlreater New Y'ork a city which ex¬ tends far beyond even the extended limits and barely st«ps at tho Wa ihung hills in New Jersey.
