TIE SrIR's first Impression concerning the pro-
posal made In the Citizens Committee to improve
the Districts present form OF government Is that
she game "a not worth the candle" Tue changes
suggested are not Of overwhelming Importance or
Of present urgency. Military domination In the
District government Is Objectionable 70 every body.
but In the present situation OF affairs there Is no
danger In that direction The two civilian Commits
tiOners should be able In any event 70 hold In check
the one Engineer Commissioner. The separation OF
the executive and legislative duties OF the CON-
missioners and the grant OF the latter 10 council
OF fifteen citizens Is made OF minor Importance by
the inconsiderable legislative power which, under
the Constitution and the deci ions OF the courts.
Congress may delegate In respect 10 the District.
As was asked when the few lOaves and nshes were
10 De- divided 70 thousands OF hungry mouths, 50
10 nav b. asked when the Commissioners so-called
legislative functions are 10 be divided among mr.
teen cOunciImen: "What are they among 50

the Constitution can secure a satisfactory ap-
porionment OF legislative powers 70 Dis
trfct representative body. Without disputing at
this time that the District might make the changes
proposed II such action could be taken by its own
decision and without exposing it TO dangers
greater than the advani ages sought, The STAR Is
OF the opinion that the movement Il untimely.
II an issue were made up between the friends OF
the present Commission gov 'rnment and the
advocates OF III tuc
municipal affairs the present proposition might
prove an acceptable compromise. But no such
issue presses, and this movement voluntarily re-
opens the question OF District government and
exposes the city 10 the unlimited sunragists,
10 the opponents OF the present f1nan-
cial relations OF city and government, to
the whims OF Congressional experfmenters. and
TO all the chances OF Congressional
legislation. IL will also. II pressed, monopolize
public attention ana antagonize every important
measure for District relief urged by the citizens OF
WASHINGTON The railroad problem, the school
board question, and otner such matters Will b
mlnimized In importance. and will run the risk q
being pushed aside Ia the contest over the political
question. Not enough OF advantage Is offered by
the Dill TO compensate for the inevitable risks At
some other Juncture the suggested Improvements
Of our municipal government might well be urged,
either as a compromise 10 avoid unlimited suffrage
IN municipal matters, or as part Of more general
scheme for the improvement OF the political con-
ditlon OF the people OF the District. But, In The
sTAEs opinion. the best thing TO do now Is TO keep
