Here and the individual voices will be uplifted in behalf ef non-improvement, and one person out of three hundred thousand may argue that because there were no sewers fifty years ago there need be no sewers now, but the great multitude—anxious to live as long as can and fully aware of the life-shorten- ae i influences of anti-hygienic conditions— demands that no obstacles be permitted longer to remain in the way of raising the morey that will be needed to carry into effect the comprehensive plan already out- Mned by a commission of competent engi- neers. That the desired results may be achieved, it is necessary that Washington's citizens shall stand shoulder to shoulder for the general good; to cavil about minor matters, and especially about things that pertain rather to personal profit than public welfare, is but to retard injuriously the coming of the day when the wholesome Proposition shall be crystallized into law. Argument that the estimate made of the cost of carrying into effect the commis- ston’s plan is too low, and that the city ean be thoroughly and adequately sewered and protected from floods at less cost than : as were the Whigs with whom Peel had so much fun, they really must refrain from blaming the re- publicans if they steal the last democratic garment. Indications just now point to the passage of a tariff bill for which the ma- jority of conscientious republican protec- tionists can cheerfully vote. And yet the measure is democrati¢ ag it can be—its authors and amenders were all elected to Congress as democrats, ‘The feeling of the northwestetn repubil- cans, that their support of Harrison in 1885 had been secured under false pretenses in respect to the tariff, was one of the elements of the political convulsion of 1892. These re- publicans were told that it would be wiser to permit the tariff wall to be reduced sys- tematically and thoughtfully by the repub- lican friends of American industries, than to empower democratic free traders to over- turn the tariff wall, with resulting public disaster. It was assumed that, however the election might result, the tariff was to be modified and reduced. They voted the repub- ican ticket, and they were repaid by the McKinley bill. They showed their resent- ment in 1842, The discrepancy between promise and performance is likely to be even greater in the democratic case. And some people are looking for a duplication of the result of 18vz, with the positions of the two Parties reversed. — —+ee____ ‘When certain of the striking coal-miners in Illinois were engaged in outrageously and inexcusably defying the law, they re- ceived encouragement that amounted to ac- tual assistance from one John Pe:nicious Altgeld, who, uffortunately for the reputa- tion of Illinois, is governor of the state. In several places within Altgeld’s jurisdiction there was rioting and very much of minor misconduct, and when there was demand by sheriffs for the assistance of state troops, the governor, without any shadow of reasonable excuse, delayed, until delay was no longer possthle, anything that had the appearance of favorable response. For his reprehensible inactivity during those days and nights of peril the governor has been properly condemned, but his sympathy fm accordance with the commission's plan, is worthy of consideration. The peo- ple of the city have placed confidence in the wisdom of the commission's recom- mendations, and they believe that Con- gress, after investigating the matter, will indorse the proposed comprehensive plan. But the firal responsibility for this de- ¢ision is, of course, with Congress. Wash- ington wants the least expensive, thorough and adequate sewerage system that can be devised. Up to the present time it has had full faith im the commission's plan, and is willing, if Congress also indorses the plan, to meet its proportionate share of the interest and sinking fund of the bonds Mecessarily issued to meet what the re- quired works, economieally constructed, will reasonably cost. To endeavor to construct this sewer sys- tem piecemeal would be an unnecessarily expensive and most unbusinessitke endeav- or. The appropriation of one or two hun- @red thousand dollars now, and of similar sums at intervals of varying lengths for the next forty or fifty years would practi- cally be a waste of money. The entire work should be entered upon at one time and at once, and pushed to a conclusion as speedily as possible, in order that the pub- Me may profit at the earliest moment by its expenditures under this head. The interest and sinking fund annual charge created by the issue of sewer bonds should not much exceed the probable annual appropriations for piecemeal sewer work, By the bond is- sue system the city’s healthfulness would feel the benefit of the completed sewerage system In a very few years; by the piece- meal system fifty years would elapse before the completion of the work, and by that time, owing to the city’s growth, the sys- tem would probably be inadequate. ———_ + > __. The public school year of 1893-94 comes to an end this week, and for three months there will be for teachers and scholars wel- come and healthful vacation. Analysis of tional season will show that a greater num- ber of children received instruction than in any previous year and—quite as im- portant—that the character of the instruc- tion and the manner in which it was im- parted improved in at least the ratio to be expected of a well-trained and up-to-date organization. There has been harmony of design and cheerfulness of execution among the teachers and to this smoothness of ac- tion, directed by thoses who have properly achieved eminence as educators, is due the excellent reputation which our local schools bear the whole country over. Of course many things have been left undone, but that they are undone is due to the fact that Congress has neglected to do some of the things which it should have done. It is shameful that there are at the na- tional capital children who, because the necessary facilities are lacking, are de- prived of that privilege which is one of the best founded of our national boasts—a com- ™Mon-sehool education. With such means as have been at their command, the a: thorities have done well; it is hoped that their labors in the future will not be so hampered by unnecessary shortness of funds as they have been in the past. —___ +e —___ Sir George Grey, who was formerly pre- mier of New Zealand and governor of Cape Colony, has been honored with a banquet, given him by the National Liberal Club of London, and in a speech which Sir George, | of course, had to make he enthusiastically defended the principle of home rule for states and colonies. He spoke of the ap- Plication which had been made of that Principle in the United States and was! loudly applauded. Sir George should at| least be fair. He ought to have told his audience that the home rule idea is a truly admirable something in an American pres- idential campaign, but that unless those who plead for home rule control many votes they receive no attention whatever, es- Pecially from the present administration, when the campaign is over. —_-+-+____ It fs difficult to conceive a greater mis- fortune than for a man to be forced into the position of an imitation anarchist. +e It is understood that Mr. Croker ne- Blected to, subscribe to a press-clipping bu- Feau before he went away. + «= —___ Bulogized by the New York Times as “the most important piece of political lit- @rature published in this country since Mr. Cleveland's message of 1887," an interview with Col A. Conger of Ohio has dis- turbed and will doubtless continue to dis- turb the serenity of a considerable number of democrats who are still hopeful in re- spect to next November and November, 1896. Col. Conger, who 1s apparently in charge of the western end of Thomas Brackett Reed's presidential boom—a rather | substantial appearing affair—proclaims “a! Fepublican policy of tariff reform, of lower @uties on imports in the interest of the Producer and consumer.” At first the enun- elation of such doctrine by a republican of Prominence in behalf of another and much more prominent republican may seem to be startling, and yet it is not surprising that | shrewd republicans should decide to em- bark in the business of giving the Ameri- €an people that for which they have made | fo strong an appeal. Two years ago the voters of the United States insisted that the | tariff should be reformed, and they elected | to office, as a general thing, those who Promised to do the reforming with neatness | and dispatch. Eighteen months have gone | by without the appearance of anything that looks like such tariff reform as was provided for in the Chicago platform. So if the republican party endeavors to lower the tariff wall and to thus achteve this year and two years hence such success as was vouchsafed its opponent, it will find plenty of people willing to excuse it for the change of attitude ‘The ‘Times says that “Dis-| with the law-breake-s has, after all, taught @ valuable lesson; it made plain the com- parative uselessness of the posse comitatus. Gov. Altgeld insisted, as other governors have before him, and as others doubtless will do, that the military should not be called into service until the sheriff had completely exhausted the powers of the etvil law. At first glance this appears to be the correct thing to do, and under cer- tain circumstances the posse is undoubtedly @ valuable force, but when men are mur- dering each other and illegally destroying Property in accordance with carefully con- sidered plans put into operation by organ- ized bodies, the posse can hardly be other- wise than useless. Armed with all manner of weapons, undrilled, and frequently with- out even the slightest experience as to phy- sical conflict, the average posse more fre- quently menaces than protects the peace. Every member of the hastily-formed ag- gregation is likely at any time to do the very thing that should not be done, and yet be comparatively blameless, for who can expect discipline in such crowds as most sheriffs have to muster under stress of cir- cumstances. During the coal strike which has just come to a conclusion, it frequently happened that posses found themselves drawn up in battle array facing large num- bers of men whe had organized for the work of destruction, and only in rare in- stances was any good accomplished. In most of the states there is a force of citi- zen-soldiers moré or less efficient. These militiamen are trained to obey orders, are well armed and equipped and are in every way fitted to cope with the disorderly ele- ment. They are citizens just as much es are those men upon whom the sheriffs have to call to do duty as deputies. Why, then, should antiquated statutes that insist upon calling into service an incompetent force when a competent force is at hand be longer permitted to exist? Why should the state avail itself of the extremely expensive and unsatisfactory energies of the untrained citizen when his next-door neighbor, who has been educated to fight, is kept at home? The day of the posse comitatus seems to have gone by. _ Oo ‘The appearance of Mr. Croker in Europe will no doubt add some neat variegations to an already interesting collection of im- pressions of America. ———- +++ It would be interesting to get a phreno- logical chart of the Senate's bump of seif- esteem.
