Mors than one hundred and twenty- five deicgates have been in attendance, but that comparatively sma!l number rep sents a leaven which has in it powers suf- ficlent to result In permeation of the whole national s. Such record of the proceed- ings as hi reached the general public ghows remarkable harmony tn the work of the convention. There have been no dif- ferences of opinion upon matters essential. From all points comes testimony that the public conscience is being awakened, and that this is the time to agitate and educate. The speakers were practically of one mind as to this most important matter. Lucien B. Swift of Indianapolis said: “There can be no perma t reforms so long as a city’s public service is open to be preyed on by its ward bummers.” George W. Ocks, mayor of Chattanooga, said: “The good citizen must be taught that no city government can rise above the level of these governed. He must be taught that theories do not work reform; that these can be attained only by energies in civil government.” Mayor Kennedy of Alleghany said: “It is quite certain we have too many laws and not enough enforcement. We have good laws in plenty, but it is the ¢ regard to the sacredness of the laws and the indifference of the people to their ob- servance which gives rise to m) of the corruption of the day. It is not in the law, but im the observance thereof, that the virtue lies.” President Hartwell of the Good Govern- ment Club of Louisville declared that: “The spolls system is the great octopus which is strangling virtue, truth and honesty in public life. The weapon of d struction that must be used is the search light of public opinion, blinding and de- siroying the evils which follow the creed that to the victors belong the spoils; that dishonesty is legitimate in politics; that the political party a man belongs to must ve his infallible guide in municipal politics; that a public trust: is no tr that a po- aitical boss is ‘the’ boss, and that his man- date is iaw, the right to. the contrary not- withstanding.” Presicent Loomis of the Buffalo Good Government Club concluded his argument by saying: “Despite aught that may be argued to the contrary, 1 assert as a matter of posit knowledge, experience European “cities and of Buffalo, absence of salary is no impediment to cb- taining the services of our very best citi- zens, proviced only that official duties are as they ought to be—only legislative and supervisory. Finally, it pre-eminently the business system, modeled almost actly aiter that of every business corpora- tion, and as such may well command the xpproval of those whose motto is that “Muni 1 government is business, not politics.’ -These declarations are good things for the citizen to read and to think of. Only a little while ago those who called them- selves good citizens were, as a rule, care- less in all municipal matters. The revoit of outraged decency in New York, follow by a thorough smashing of the “ring” at } Chicago, have encouraged reputable dweil- ers in combine-ruled cities to stand Loldly for the best interests of the com- munities in which they reside. —+ ¢ = During the past four or flve years there has been great scarcity of fish in the Poto- mac river in the vicinity of this city. The reason for such an unfortunate state of affalrs is discussed by a correspondent and is evident to those persons who have voy- aged downstream for any considerable dis- tance, for never until of late have there been so many nets set as are now stretched from the Maryland and Virginia shores to the channel edges. It presumed that there is nothing illegal in the endeavor of those who operate the nets to earn a live linood, but it does seem as though the legislatures of Maryland and Virginia should insist upon the net-meshes being much larger than the present minimum. The catching of marketable fish, provided it is done properly, cannot be ol but the capturing of countless young fish which are either left to ret on the shore or are used by farmers to stimulate the soil they cultivate is a serious offense. ——_~ + + —___ Washington's great advantages as a win- ter resurt have frequently been demon- strated and have gererally been recognized by persons possessed of capital and leisure. The city is now achieving fame as a com- paratively comfortable place in which to spend the heated term. Hypercritical folks may iucline to the opinion that it is warm here but they will urdoubtedly retreat from that untenable position when they learn from the official records how many of the popular summer resorts are now in the Yuma class of temperature and are racing neck-and-neck with hadean Arizona of that the | is ixty day: ment will do great deal toward discouraging such rowdy- ism on suburban street cars as Judge Mil- ler dealt with yesterday in the Police Court.

Holden, Camp- td and Schaeberle have agreed that Mars is not the wonderfully peopled place that the popular imaginaticn has there tles the is po at whol B held by the structures a} up | | 1 1 pictured it to be. The spectroscope has shown that Mars and the moon are just alike in the matter of atmosphere, and Prof. Holden, in a recent magazine article, comes to the conclusion that all the in- genious but hardly scientific theories that have been formed in the last few years are absurdities. For instance, it has been all settled, by people blessed with lively minds, that Mars had not only a large and in- ulation, but that the Martians built enormous canals, and, having iscovered the existence of peo- Earth, they were making gi- als to us across the ether of © question now is: What planet Wl be next chosen to be the object of telligent pop had popular interest?

Cor- nel's silence is remarkably refreshing, for it is the general custom to declare with great vehemence that this team or this crew or this individual is the very best, and that they or it or he can easily get away with all the people who may imagine them- selves to be competitors. This modesty on the part of Cornell—this refraining from boastful ejaculation—is entirely creditable to the institution and to the United States generally. The Cornell crew will probably have more hard work to do than any crew that ever left this country te test the qual- ity of European grit and muscle, for, in- stead of mecting one of the university crews, it will row against a crew composed of six of the best of Oxford's picked oars- men and the two leading men of the Cam- bridge crew; another powerful combination will be from Germany. In practice the Cor- nell eight have almost equaled the best record ever made at Henley and have beaten the time of last year's winners, so that even if the men from Ithaca do not win they will doubtless make a showing of which nobody on this side of the Atian- tic need be ashamed. —____+> = -—___ The rise in the price of wheat which is now gratifying American farmers is sig nificant because it shows co: ively that there is no partnership between wheat and silver. Vigorous advocates of the free coinage of silver have always insisted that the depression in prices of farm products has been due to the depre: of the white metal as a money substance. The rapld advance of the wheat market, while silver has in no wise appreciated during the same peridd, is proof conclusive of the fallacy of such reasoning. It was largely overproduction and good crops generally throughout the world that put down the prices of the farm products that enter into the world’s food supply; the present ad- vance is due in the main to the apprehen- sion that the approaching harvest will not be as satisfactory as in some of the years of great plenty. That is all there is about it. The price of silver has nothing to do with the price of wheat and never did have. =e eee One of the most prominent features of th year’s events in the bicyclers’ world has been the Chicago road race, and until this year that compefition was apparently a fair one in every respect. The contestants were amateurs and it was not expected that such tricks as the low-grade ‘professional | might be guiity of would be attempted. Yet it appears that this year the two riders who were announced as winners worked themselves into the prominent places they occupied at the finish by methods that hon- est people might condemn. It is very un- fortunate that such double dealing should find its way into an amateur competition. Professionalism has been badly tainted in several lines of athletics, but only at rare intervals has it appeared that the amateur was inclined to follow in the footsteps of those who are in the business for the money they can get out of it. It is the proper thing to poke fun at the j youth and buoyancy of high-school and col- | lege graduates, but it will be a sad day for the country when the future bright to the young and when essays and valedictories are sour with the unripe fruits of pessimism. Youth may be over-con- fident, but old age does not of itself bring | wisdom. —— ¢--_____ They have taken to decorating the graves of trolley victims in Brooklyn. The idea is not expected to be a permanent su for in a few years, unless the ravages of the trolley, more destructive than civil wer, are checked, there will not be enough flowers to go around, nor enough Brookiyn survivors to make a respectable parade. 0 In view of recent infermation as to the prevalence of polygamy in portions of Wy- oming, Utah and Idaho it is reasonable to infer that the Edmunds law is more of a legal force in the District of Columbia than it Is in the region for the civilization of which it was enecte 0 The elderly New Yorker who was knock- ed down recently by a cable car and who blamed himself alone for the collision is evidently in training for a better land than this.
