American Citizenship. The news from Rome respecting the standing at the Vatican of certain distin- guished members of the Catholic hierarchy in the United States is conflicting. The ca- bles of one day deciare that those members are out of favor there. The cables of an- other day declare the reverse. So far nothing on either side is authoritative. But the public is interested, and whichever way the news reads it commands attention. The controversy out of which this news springs is, to use a woridly phrase, ‘some- what mixed. This prelate is charged with ideas too liberal on questions of chureh au- thority and progress, whiie another is ar- raigned for being too outspoken on ques- tions of politics. The purely church phase of the matter is a delicate one, and hardly within the scope of everyday secular dis- cussion; but the question of whether a priest as citizen may throw the weight of a much respected name into the scale when as a citizen he thinks the occasion calls for a word from him brings up the question of citizenship in general, and that is a topic within everyday range in this country. Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul is said to be under fire for a deliverance of his dur- ing the campaign in favor of sound money and good government He is undoubtedly guilty of the charge. He spoke as a citi- zen, and with conspicuous clearness and effect. No deliverance of the campaign from any source showed greater grasp of the situation, or a firmer spirit in dealing with it. Had he as a citizen not a right to speak? The campaign within the section where the Archbishop resides was being con- ducted with unexampied energy on both sides. The questions at issue were pro- foundly important. Archbishop Ireland is @ man of influence in his section, as citizen as well as priest. The people expect to hear from him in great emergencies. They heard from him in this emergency in a very stitring way. He declared for pre- serving the control of the government, and against everything calculated to create strife either between sections or classes. And the vote in his section showed that his sentiments were indorsed by a very large majority of the peopie. Is it within anybody's power to so per- vert this record as to make it a source of trouble for Archbishop Ireland with his superiors? Such a thing. would appear to be impossible. The present policy of Rome is said to be friendly to the republican form of government. With us the citizen is charged with great responsibilities. He cannot shirk them except to his discredit and disadvantagé, and when he meets them successfully his usefulness in whatever walk of life he may move is increased. } Archbishop Ireland never stood higher in the respect of his countrymen than he does today; and Rome is not too far away for this fact safely to travel there. eo Insufficient Funds, The lack of funds has prevented the health officer from giving the law regulat- ing dairies and the city’s milk supply a perfect administration. The lack of funds has prevented the expected operation of the law regulating the practice of medicine in the District. The lack of funds likewise hampers the autho: in their efforts to stamp out diphtheria. This same poverty is encountered whenever an emergency arises, ard unfortunately it bears heaviest upon those matters that directly affect the public health. The list of evidences of the inattention of Congress to this all-import- ant branch of the cit government is long and wearisome. It includes the fail- ure to provide means for proper sewer ex- tension ard to furnish money for some pro- of sewage disposal. It embraces the tent negiect of the Anacostia flats and the incomplete appropriations for the Potomac improvements. A water supply that threatens more and more frequently to become insufficient and to spread disease furnishe: another evidence of the policy that surmises thatthe capital is doing well enough at present and that the time to meet emergencies is after they have arisen. ‘The laws that are passed often involve burdens and duties that in turn require means. The presumption is that the money for the adminisitration of the statutes will be provided by the annual appropriation bill. The original act is prepared by the District committees while the budget is the exclusive work of the appropriations committees, and between these bodies there is not now that unity of action which en- sures harmonious results. The cheese-par- ing process is always to be anticipated, but whatever other cuts are made, there should be no skimping of funds when the public health is invelved. a Mr. Bryan, missing the inauguration op- portunity, may perhaps regret that he did not avail himself of that previous chance to speak from the front of the Capitol. a+r It is not to be expected that the Mc- Kiniey administration can send a repre- sentative to Great Britain who will be quite as popular there as Mr. Bayard is. — 0 Unless Bestor’s Bacchante quiets down speedily, it may he necessary to prefer a charge of loud and boisterous conduct. —_—_+ += —___ Not even the populists will accuse Mr. Hanna of trying to shirk the responsibility for the election of Major McKinley. ——_ +e -—___ Filtration. Philadelphia's water supply, so long re- garded as fairly the worst in America, is apparently about to be greatly improved. Yesterday the common council, by a vote of % to 3, passed a bill providing for a loan of $3,000,000 for the installation of a filtration plant No system was named, that being left to future legislation, to be based on experiments conducted by the Board of Public Works. It is expected that the select council will promptly pass the bill, and that within a few weeks the fund will be well in hand. Washington will watch the progress of the work of purify- ing the Schuylkill water with greater in- terest than would be aroused were it not for the fact that sooner or later something in the way of filtration on a large scale must be done here. The Potomac water has never, even at its worst, approached to the degree of dark and dangerous density achieved under ordinary circumstances by the so-called fluid permitted to percolate through the systems of the long-suffering Philadelphians. It has, however, been the means of introducing into the stomachs of residents at the National Capital quantities of ecru-toned sediment, unpleasant to the eye and the palate, and accused by some medical authorities of being deleterious to health. Washington needs more water just at present more pressingly than bet- ter water, but It is anxious that in the con- sideration of plans for the increase of the supply there should be some degree of se- rious attention paid to the quality, with an economical regard for the suggestions that have been made from time to time as to the best means of wholesale filtration, the best location for such a plant, and the Proper capacity to provide for the future development of the city. : It would be folly to depend forever upon the sedimentation process now utilized and the natural purification of the river by its flow as sufficient safeguards against dis- ease from the water supply. At present the river runs through a sufficiently unset- tled region to insure a certain degree of safety, but it cannot be expected that the Potomac banks between the Falls and Har- per’s Ferry will forever remain uninhab- ited. With the growth of settlements and the population of the banks, which cannot Possibly be avoided, will come an increase in the danger of disease infection in con- stantly growing ratio. The chances of the spread of typhoid and other germ diseases that can be carried by water are at pres- ent regarded as comparatively small, owing to the enormous quantity of the water in the river and the relatively small amount consumed, and in view of the length of the free and unpolluted flow. But the estab- lishment of a single community of any considerable size’ within the forty-mile stretch of comparative safety will shake faith in the present degree of immunity from Infection, Nor can this possibly be avoided save by the government securing prchibitive -possession of the great area drained by the river betweem here and the nearest large settlement. This would cost hundreds of times as much as an effective filtration plant, and would give practically no guarantee of greater safety than ts en- Joyed today. What will be eventually needed is a filtering process that will be a Precaution not alone against present dang- ers, but also against all future perils. The question Is to be taken up and settled, not immediately perhaps, but certainly before the capital is driven by a tremendously high death rate and a world-wide repute for a filthy water supply to spend millions after great damage has been done, as Is the case with Philadelphia today. — Homicidal Initiation Ordeals. The death of an Iowa man as a result of injuries received in the course of itis initia- ticn as a member of a secret society is not the first known instance ¢* fatalities con- sequent upon the useless and brutal prac- tices of many organizations which make entry into membership a physical ordeal. The practice comes, doubtless, from olden times, when endurance was highly prized and praised, and the esteem in which a cavalier was held depended upon his ability to suffer uncomplainingly. The same ten- dency is met in penetrating into the inner life of savages, notably the Indians of North America, who: torture themselves and each other as a part of their secret Tites. But the latter-day initiations have apparently degenerated into horse-play in many cases, and, serving no useful pur- Pose and tending in no sense to preserve any desirable standard of membership, the question arises whether the time has not come to abolish them altegether. The Iowa case is especially shocking, and will doubt- less meet with general condemnation from the outsidé public, as well as from a great majority of the members of all secret or- ders indulging in severe initiation rites. —++e___ It is remarkable how mary American Politicians drop completely out of sight when their constituents conclude to elect somebody else. And yet Bismarck and Gladstone bear convincing testimony to the prcposition that a. man need not be a non- entity in public affairs simply because he is cut of ottice. —+e—_____ As a member of the diplomatic service Mr. Vanderbilt could be depended upon not to contribute to the murmurings agairst the manner in which some of this coun- try’s officials are expected co maintain a large amount of elegance on comparatively smali salaries. ++.

A Matter of Circumstances. “What do you intend to do with that asked the artist's friend. “That's one of my disappointments,” was the reply. “It's a chef d’oeuvre.” “Why, you ought to be proud of it, then.” “No. I started it as a pot-boiler. But the man who ordered it changed his mind and refused to pay for it. There's nothing now for me to do but add it to my collec- tion of masterpieces.” A Complaint From Cuba. “These pens are in beastly condition! How can I maintain my position,” The general muttered As the point caught and spluttered, “When they give me such bad ammuni- tion?"

It would be wonderfully heipful to have around when we make out the bills.” Wintry Sadness.
