There are tew men whose loss could be more deeply felt in this commun- ity than Artlinr C. C'onlrlln , Assistant Manager of The Long-Islander, who passed away on Friday night last, j^ir over twenty years he has served this , newspaper well , and helped bring It to its present state of prosperity. He has been ever alort , conscientious and clficicnt in the performance of his duties. We , the members of the staff feel our loss keenly. He was always dependable and gave to The Long- Itlandcr the best there was In him. He was-respected and beloved by all his associates in . this office. ' .; He was an exemplary Christian , and a ' most valuable member of .the Ses- sion of the Central Presbyterian CfitrrcA. where he had served as an Elder for several years. . Mr. Corklin v.as efficient as a teacher and . as Su- perintendent of the Sunday School and for many years was a- leader In the singing of the Sunday;School , and , a member , o^ the Cliurch ' choir./ ^ Hg.waa a ' regiflar attendant ' at ' tlio v nifd-iveek ffayer meetings ' of the church. ' As a great .reader and possessed ot a wide . acquaintances . with- the standard literature of the day, hla ex- pert knowledge and excellent Judg- men t and power of '\ .discrimination , made him a very valuabl e member ot the Book Committee of the Hunting- ton Public Library Association , in which capaci ty ho took an active part In the selection of the publications of the day. He served for severa l years as a member of tho Board;of Education , of the Huntington Union School . Dis- trict , and performed valuable work In that office. As n member of ' the Huntington Chamber of Commerce and the Botary Club , ho took an active interest In the affairs ' of llio community. ¦ n^lng of n cheerful disposition and optomlstic temperament ,; ho . sprond sunshine wherever ho \ Went ' Such men are a blessing to tho community.

MM _ ... . nut one of the fundamental defect; in the present method is that import- ant new issues may arise in tho in- terim of thirteen months between the date of the election and the assemb- ling of the members of the new Cong- ress , entirely different from those ex- isting at the time of their election. The new members may misrepresent the majority ' of their constituents on these issues which had not arisen at that time. This has occurred in sev- era l cases. * Senator Norris of Nebraska , author of the resolution passed last week by the Senate , said that his object iva ' a to obviate \lame duck\ Congresses , that is a session of the existing or old Congress in the December , fol- lowing an election with members of the Senate and House , who were de- feated but can have an important part in Legislation prior to the inaugura- tion of the Congress elected in Nov- ember , when they were defeated. This amendment would do away with the \ short session \ with all its defects. It is also urged in favor of the change , that if the election of a Pres- ident should be thrown into the Sen- ate , the choice of the new President and Vice-President would devolve up- on an expiring Congress, which might have been repudiated at the polls in the previous November and in that way the expressed will of the people would be defeated. It is also proposed to make the term of office ol Representative four years instead of two. It is said , in favor of this change , that it takes at. least a year for a new Representative to get acquainted with the ways of legisla- tion and after the close of the first session he has only about two months to serve. • The present ' system was adopted when the members journeyed to Washington in a leisurel y way on horseback. And the business done was small compared with, that of to- day. It is entirely \ a misfit in these times when federal appropriations run up to three to four billions of dollars wuua . lily. :sn^tlt«- i l l ^iBfeUv'b^i^ies^f ' - fect one hundred and . tifteen millions of persons. . ' • NEW LIGHT OF ASIA The term \foreign missions \ as ap- plied to the Christian missions in China , Japan and India , is likely to become before long, . a. thing of the past. ' The growing spirit of nationalism in the countries of the Far East is not confined solely to tho field of political functioning and industrial and commercial activity, but it has led to a demand for an Independent control or \ its religious institutions. The direction ot the British and American missions and the control of thp property entirely by homo boa rds is coming lo bo looked upon ns a re- flection on the intelligence and admin- istrative ability of the natives in those countries and weakens their faith in our disinterestedness, In ca rrying on the work o[ tho Master. Tho ethics of our commercial deal- ings with the natives , which have boon far from Ideal and our demand for ox-torrltorlal rights In fact , the rutting v» ol a forelfrn dominion on Chinese and Japanese soil , Is looked upon ns un accompaniment to the Christian .Missions and to that extent weakens their spiritual Influence, Tho church authorities, in Anierl- en and Great Britain, linvo come to rrnllso this tinrt nro «radutilly giving tn'or llio financial as well na tho spir- itual control of tho .illusion stations tn tho natives. There urn no nioro earnest and sincere Christians than the Chinese uml Jiiininoso anil when those outnklc the ohiiroh sco that ' lb \ Chrlntlnn mlBslons urn nil tholr own national Imitllutions , they will consn to main- tain thalr prejudices ngnlnst thorn and ouch an act of self ronimolntlnii °\ tho purl, of our mission boards will enormously «tt'ong(h<m tint citu/m of Chrlstlnnlty In tho Kant.

WALK ON THE LEFT S DE OF THE ROA D Hundreds of pedestrians have been taking to the concrete roadways durins the recent snow storms when the side- walks were ali but impassable. The roads are cleared of snow and ice Jong before the sidewalks and it is but natural that those having to walk should prefer the roadway. Were prop- erty owners compelled to elear ' their sidewalks as they are In New York City, there would be no necessity for walking on the roadways. In walkmg on the roadways every- one should ! be careful to keep to the .left side of the road facing tho vehicles coming toward them and in turning out for an oncoming car in that direc- tion should glance backwards to see that none are approaching from the rear. If there are such the pedestrian should get entirely clear from the road- way even if it necessitates clim/bing a snow ridge at the side of the road. It is the duty . of drivers approaching pedestrians from the rear to blow their horns when quite a distance away. COAL SUPPLY NEAR AT HAND Our local dealers have considerable consignmen ts of freshly mined anthra- cite coal on tlie way here, and we may hope soon to have an ample sup- ply to meet the most pressing needs of the community. Of course only those out of fuel will receive the first attention and they will get only inough to tide thorn over until the full summer supply is at hand. \ It is stated that there will be littl e if any, advancing over pre-strlke prices. . New York City dealers are so advertising, and probably similar con- ditions will prevail here. Burns Btq- [l^^^e^^BsaUsMds^Ta^X ^s ¦country, Estatei that, prices for egg aii' d n .ut . are $15.25 , arid pea $11. , The Scrantpn anil leh/gh quote stow it $16.50 land egg and nut' In the bin at $11.95. ' There will be enough more asked in Huntington to pay for the extra ' freight charges. • , If there is difficulty in getting a supply, the local dealers may have to pay an extra- premium to Independent wholesalers , . but this would be an out- rage. out a blaze on your premises because the firemen were unable to reach con- flagration because of idlers blocking the way. Promptness on the part of the firefighters, and a few gallons of water or chemicals played on the founding dur- ing the earl y stages of fire are worth more than a river poured on when the blaze is at its height. Most ctringest police regulations should be enforced by \ the town or vil- lage authorities at every lire. TOWN BOARD VOTES ADDITIONAL LIGHTS The Lighting Committee .,of the Huntington Town Board , following an investigation , has recommended that the request of tho members of Local Union No. 1292; United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America made through their secretary, William Holm , for a large r street light in front of their building on Green street. Tho organization , In its (petition , stated that the hall In - rented four nights a week , and sometimes six nights , ' and with ca rs parked in the street while meetings arc going on , the present very poor light lnvltod long fingered gentlemen to ply their trade among tho cars parked there , and that they are doing It is proven by tho fact that a few weeks ago n motonietor wns tnken or rather brok- en off tho radiator of one of the cars parked thorn. It \vaa voted to place n COO candle power street light on the polo oppo- site the hall , in place of the small ono located there at. tho present time. It wns also decided lo place two 80 cnndlo power . iilroot lights on Lake slreol , between Gibson and Prime ave- lined, Thnro are no llRhtn on this street at tho p resent tlnm , and besidn tin- need of tho lights for tho rnsl- tlcntH whoso homes are on thin block , It.

In last -week' s Long-Islander by one of our deputy sheriffs that he had to let his prison- ers go because he had no key for the town lock-up Is a surprising one. A new lock had to be put on the lock-up. for the reason that there -were too many keys scattered about for the old one and this was a dangerous condition ' . . Many of the former deputy sheriffs and other officials failed to. turn in thei r keys upon retiring from, office. The keys of the new lock are dis- tributed only to the constables and town clerk , but these officials , one or the other of them , can bo readily reached by telephone or at some point oil Main street or New Yorli avenue. COMMUNITY SHOULD BE PRO- TECTED. Our esteemed contemporary Tho County Review printing a map ot Long Island lis the Land of Opportunity in Its last weeks issue , completely Igntfres the villages on the North Shore ' and the City of Glen Cove. There is not a sign on the map o£ Hunting- , ton , Sea Cliff , Oyster Bay, ivorth port and the score of other enterprising villages which are still alive and would have .been -pleased to have had the honor of being recognized by a dot on the map. .
