This is a story that is bound to attract morethn passing notice. Opinions of the book may be as wide apart ‘as the poles, except as to its interest. On this point the verdict is unanimous in its favor. —#1.00.— “ORCHARDSCROFT"—the story of an artist, by Elsa D’Esterre-Keeling, author of “Three Sisters,” ““In mere withdrawal of the right or privilege of selling liquor, which does not punish as unlawful vome past act which was lawful when committed, but simply declares that for the future an act shall be illegal which in the past was authorized. It couli hardly have been the intention of Congress to deprive the municipality of all power to punish those selling under the old ficenses for violations of the law against) Sunday sales, and sales to minors. and to leave | the right to sell under these licenses unim- paired. Either all of the old law is good until November first, or none of it is good. The difficulty im the way of treating the Bash case as a test case is that there are no other cases made up to be tested and de- termined by it. If every one of those who are selling under the old licenses bad been taken into court then the cases | against them might be permitted to turn | upon the result in the Bush case. But as matters now stand a final decision in the Bush case favorable to the District, if delayed as it readily can be delayed until November first, will not have prevented any other liquor dealer from selling under the old licenses, and will not punish such sales, or collect the new license in the shape of a fine, and will not render these dealers amenable in the interim to the regulations against Sunday sales and sales to minors. | +02 There is ho ambiguity in the President's | financial statement, ad the causes which brought about the nm ‘ommittal character of Secretary Carksle’s statement have come to be ferstood. The administration will redeem the treasury noXes only in gold, will make use of the gold reserve in the present emergency, and gives no intumation of any intent to issue bonds to increase the gold supply. If the ex- baustion of the gold reserve were at hand the administration would doubtless again consider the matter of a bond issue, but the President | evidently does not think that the reserve will be | ‘exhausted. He is « sound-money man from top to toe, and the people will respond heartily to his appeal for confidence in his purpose to| maintain infletibly the public credit and for | patriotic co-operation in averting the Ged ened financial dangers. The correction of un- wise legislation in respect to silver is that task | of the present administration in respect to | which there is the greatest public confidence of the adoption and enforcement of a wise, firm, and, as far as possible, effective policy. see If the Duke of Veragua had any feeling that he owns this country through a title derived by right of discovery and tran-mitted by inher- itance from his venturesome (ienoese ancestor that feeling must have been strengthened today | when he explored the District which bears his family name. The District of Columbia is the most conspicnous geographic monument to the memory of the great discoverer. To have named the continent after him might have been a greater honor, but since the early geog- rapbers neglected this opportunity to give recognition-the next best thing was to give his name to the district that comprised the capi- tal city of the great nation whose wonderful development has been the most remarkable sequel of the discovery. And this is an honor, too, that will grow more and more conspic ous as the republic advarces in population and power and the capital city grows in beauty and ‘Wealth until it takes rank as the most attract- ive city in the world. +e ____ ‘That the President should have a suitable office for the transaction of business, apart from his residence, or that the White House should be so enlarged as to provide ample space for the accommodation of the public business as well as a proper residence for the President, has long been an admitted fact. The need for some change now gives rise to s proposal to make use of rooms in one of the department buildings as an executive office. This may answer as a means of temporary relief, but the | dignity of the office and the convenience in the | transaction of business, requires, as a perma- nent measure, the erection either of a suitable executive building or the enlargement of the Present White House. Undoubtedly the head of any of the departments would be glad to give the President shelter, but it hardly seems | im keeping with the high character of the office that the President should have to take advan- tage of such hospitali any length of time. | | With a circus, a real live duke and a simon pure rajab in town and the sun shining brightly Washington was indeed biessed above other cities today. +2 ster appears in an enlarged s ~ The old form is retained, w eight pages.

It has been it this agreement between the czar | le of the United States treats regi- | ® non-political offense and makes it! extraditable. It is farther claimed that this provision extends not merely to regi- ide, but to attempts upon the life of the zar and to accessories to such offense, includ- ing, under the Russian law, the mere failure to ive information concerning conspiracies in- Volving the czar's life. ‘The regicide provision sppears ina great many extradition treaties between monarchs. But Italy and Switzerland have refused to permit this provision to appear | in extradition treaties with Russia and one at- tempting the life of the czar would be safe also im Engiand. Switzerland refused this pro- Vision to France and in so doing gave a state- | ment of reasons which would seem to apply in| the case of the United States. “The constitu-| ent forms of the state were not identical in the two countries. Republican Switzerland was in | this respect in a position absolutely different | from that of monarchical states and there could be no question in this mat-| ter of any reciprocity between Switzer. land and France seeing that the forme: Would never ask a like reservation in favor of | the members of ite government.” Switzerland therefore reserved the right of examining to the cireumstances of an attempt upon the lif been alleged Yolved an offense against the person which Fendered the surrender of the criminal proper. While the position taken by Switzerland is doubtless the logical one and probably the most | Feasonable one for every republic to assume yet there would be no great shock to American sentiment in the surrender of an actual regi- (@4e. the assassin of a ruler, the act not being is confidently made and instances are cited to prove that when on any pretext Russia has once obtained possession of persons who are really accused of political offenses no attention whatever is paid to the offense named in the extradition proceedings. The trial of these political offenses being secret, without the intervention of a jury, the unfortunate person extradited may be tried on any charge and whisked away to Siberia or executed with- | out the facts being generally known and with- out opportunity to protest being given to the country which has extradited the accused, The American public is not at all anxious to protect assassins, or to welcome enthusiastically to its shores those who use or believe in the use of assassination as a means of enforcing their the- ories of government. But at the®ame time it is entirely out of harmony with republican principles to make an attempt upon the life of monarch any more serious an offense than an attempt on the life of an ordinary individual, And it will be shocking to all republican and all American ideas if we have so tied our hands that we shall be compelled to surrender to Russia a person charged merely with concealing information concerning @ conspiracy against the czar or charged merely with the offense of forging the Passport necessary to enable him to leave the country, when the natural results of such sur- render will be the trial of the person surren- dered in secret, without the intervention of a jury, and with the punishment of exile and even death for offenses which are thus punished solely on account of their political character. In our efforts to prevent the republic from harboring assassins we should not permit our- selves to. go to the extreme of conniving with Russia for the Siberian exile or death of those who are not pleated with the absolute despotism which prevails in that country, including even those wino by forg ng passports attempt to fly from the infernal treatment which they there endure. But first of ail let the government of the people, by the people and for the peopl form the people what in this matter in the people's name has been stipulated and agreed. piae oe Sa eee ‘The examination of the sanitary condition of the public schools disclosed that two are unfit to be used. There are doubtless others which, | while not in so bad a state asto compel con- demnation, are not as they should be. No pre- cautions can be too great in respect to the healthfulness of the rooms in which so large a proportion of the children of the city spend so many hours of the day. The authorities have steadily and energetically labored to secure the erection of more school buildings, modern in construction, ventilation, &c.,and much bas been accomplished of late years in this re- gard. But evidently there can be no relaxation in this crusade for more schools until accom- modations are provided for those children who are now housed, to some extent necessarily, in rooms which should not be used for school purposes, Most people long ago gave up the effort to understand all the perplexing complications that seem to attend the execution of the gar- bage contract. Those who have tried to follow the history of the attempts to secure an adequate service in the season when the demand is great- est have only been mystified. Commissioner Parker. however, has brought matters back to the starting point by notifying the contractor that business principles are to be applied, that a plain and strong contract wilt be drawn up and that the garbage must be removed accord- ing to its terms, or the contractor must suffer for it, Itis not hard to understand that, and | if the Commissioner sticks to his purpose, there will be little difficulty during the coming | summer in properly placing the blame for any deficiencies in the service. —+-o-__. ‘Those who know anything of the resources of this country hardiy need the reassurance given by the President in his timely utterance re- garding the purpose of the administration to maintain the public eredit.
