A Man 10 be I1onored.

The people of the District of Columbia
and all others who are interested in the
future of the National Capital, owe to Sen.
ator Matt Ransom debt Of gratitude which
cannot be estimated, aud which must be
perpetual. 1t Is safe to say that no single
project of Improvement ever undertaken
here was 50 vital to the welfare of the
community and the comfort of its people as
the scheme for reclamation of the Potomac
flats which Senator Ransom has so success
fully inau2 In estimating the value
of the services of an individual it is neces-
sary to take into account not only the mag
nitude of the benefit he confers, but the
difficulties under which he labors.
In the case under discussion these two
considerations were about equal. The
work to be done was of inconceivable i'm.
portanoe, while the difficulties in the way
ofa practical beginning were great and
almost insuperable. To such task sena-
tor Ransom addressed himself over n year
ago. He had to contend with the proven
bial apathy Of Congress toward all District
affairs; he had to surmount the opposition,
open or covert ola host of theorists and
quacks who, under the guise of sanitary
engineers" were filling the public prints
with a multitude of schemes mostly i'm
practicable and each hostile to the other;
and it has been rumored that he found in
his way at more than one stage of his
operations the Vaccinations of individuals
who hoped for benefit to themselves from
the iuaction of the Government. tHi
In one way and another, with character
istic patience and suavity that no annoy
ance could ruitle, Senator Ransom brushed
obstacle after obstacle aside; and finally,
when baked by the folly Of the Com.
mitteo on Commerce-whieh would have
sacrificed the health of the National
Capital to an absurd Constitutional quibbl'
he appealed to tho Senate, and through
legislative coup Petat more striking thar
