It's good thing that District interests are

It is good thing that District interests are
TO be given another chance for a hearing in the
House of Representatives. But why is a re-
striction imposed in the case of the school bill?
There Is no measure on which the people of the
District, Irrespective of politics and without
distinction of wealth or station, have set their
hearts as they have on this one Tits a matter
of vital concern to them that the schools In
which their children to be educated shall
be assured against any faint of partizanship
or favoriteism. The experience of other Ameri-
can cities has proved that the instant these
foreign elements creep into the system, that
instant the system begins TO decline. Under
the old arrangement, whereby the people
through their representatives in the school
board. had absolute control of the appoint
ments, from superintendent down, the schools
of Washington acquired a just lame all over the
Union for their excellence. The bill now before
Congress has in view the restoration Of the
popular authority which secured so admirable
results. The opposition to it comes, nearly
rs can be learned, wholly from clique with
one personal and political end in view. Mos.
OF those congressman who have been won over
To the hostile party are probably victims OF
serious Misrepresentation. If they will take the
trouble to look into the facts for themselves
and consult the people of the District, their an
tagonism will be changed to cordial support;
and, so far from ruling the school bill out of
the program for the extra District day, they
will insist upon its consideration and its speedy
