conduct Of the Penusylvanians was beyond re-
proach, three OF them who had become intoxi-
Gated. and were tearing down signs, and kick
before our police court, lectured by the Judge
and put under bonds, but reference to their
misconduct does not involve condemnation Of
the entire division nor should it arouse cham
picns who seem equally willing to defend right
o. wrong. The STAR has. when necessary, con-
demned misbehavior, but it has always been as
ready to praise. Commenting on the events of
the inaugural period just past, The STAR said:
The Pennsylvania troops. freely and pro-
perry criticised in years gone by, behaved ad-
mira5ly. For this they are not entitled to COM
neutrality-suspicious. should always be gentle
men-but mention is made of their good con-
duct because some Of the representative among
their officers, careless as to facts and jealous
only of newspaper reputation, have complained
of unfair treatment"
There is the difficulty, in q nutshell Penn
sylvanias army will always be welcomed in
Washington if the general average of good con-
duct displayed here during its most recent visit
is sustained.
Should the District National Guard ever mis-
behave itself when away from home the news
papers of Washington will leave no stone I'M
turned to secure punishment for the guilty
Such activity would be in the interest Of disci-
pline and local character. The Pennsylvania
National Guard may well pray to be delivered
from those who claim to be its friends and who
imagine that friendship consists in endeavoring
to cover up wrongdoing.

This is the day when the Washington base ball
enthusiast commences to make himself heard
for the season Of 1893, for this afternoon the
league team which has its habitation here will
start in to earn its salary. Like all OF its pre-
decessors it is declared to be a better aggrega-
ton of ball playing talent than any the city has
been favored with. and official announcement
to that effect is greeted as cordially as similar
statements have been in years gone by. Let
US hope that when the schedule closes
Washington will occupy respectfully elevated
position on the records. This is the national
capital, more beautiful and in many
respects more progressive than any
other city on the continent. Why
should its ball team always finish last? Are we
achieving our high-grade civilization at the ex-
pense of athletic vigor? In common with the
majority of newspapers The STAB has indulge ed
in facetious or sa.irical comment on the arts of
pitching or batting or base running. 1t may
continue TO do so. Whether it will or not de-
ponds largely upon the quality Of the talent
with which the ''msgnates" supply this COM
munity. Good base bail is healthful. profitable
and commendable. Poor base ball is worse than

People whose desire ID il to have the world
understand that American craftsmanship is but
another name for American honor cannot be
indifferent to some recent happenings in the
United States Senate. The superficial and
present facts are that Senator Hoar yesterday
offered q resolution directing the committee on
privileges and elections to investigate the ale
cations extensively made in the public press
charging William y. Roach. q Senator
from the state Of North Dakota. with
the offense of criminal embezzlement
to report the facts of the transaction
referred to; and. further. to report what is
the dutv OF the Senate in relation thereto.
That such a resolution should have been offered
is far from surprising. Ever since Mr.. Roach's
election the story OF his trouble with the Citi-
zens' National Bank OF this city has been cir
culAted with the utmost freedom in the public
press and yet SO far as The STAR is aware. Mr..
Roach has neglected every opportunity to
either deny or explain the damaging statements.
Perhaps his silence has been misconstrued. but
il that 10 30 he alone must bear the responsible
ity for the demonstration. for when a Sem
ator Of the United States-who should
represent the honor and dignity OF the
contingencies direct queries as to a
QUESTIONABLE traDsactlO0 ne Is not uureasOnA-
bly, viewed Is virtually admitting some measure
of wrong-doing. Vague calumny may some
times be defeated By voiceless scorn. but definite
and specific accusations insist upon recognition.
In view, therefore. of the commonly discussed
circumstances. it is not surprising that many
Senators should be unwilling to have the exalted
body Of which they are members tainted even
BY an imputation and should insist that Senator
Roach make some explanation or defence. That
the resolution must be adopted is almost certain.
for political considerations as nothing on
either side of the chamber when honor is in
yolved. Then the fscts-whatever they may be
will become of official record and on them
the Senate and the American people will base
what will probably be perfectly just conclusions.
1t is suggested that other Senators than Mr..
Roach can be accused OF crime II any Senator
mulating definite charges OF violations of the
criminal law against any other member Of the
Senate, the same investigation should be had as
that proposed in the case of Mr.. Roach There
should of course be no political or personal dis
elimination in the Senate's cleansing efforts.
But care should be taken TO confine the investi-
CATION and discussion to definite charges
sponsibly made. Otherwise nothing viii result
but windstorm Of vague recriminatory innu-
endo, which will cloud the reputation Of the
Senate without effecting the slightest purifca-
tion Of the mora atmosphere.

II is interesting to note what is now being
said of the career of the late Elliot F. Shep-
ard During his life he was the subjec. of
much remark of kind under which most men
would smart 1t was comment which ne might
easily have averted had he chosen. But he
seemed rather to invite it, The American
public in its demands to be amused often in
sists upon a magnifying Of matters which are
only trifies in the make up of man. BUTT is
after all a sensible public that does not forget
that such picture is distortion and not por-
trait. After death the trifes are swept aside.
The broad view OF character and personality re-
mains alone. An in this spirit the comment
on Elliot E. Shepard is invariably kind.

II the Sanitary League accomplishes nothing
more than to spread through the community
useful and accurate information on matters of
sanitation and hygiene it will have justified its
existence. Already it has done much in that
line. II intends however to do great deal In
addition to this work of instruction. Its plan
il to have at least one vigilant member of the
League on each square Of the city, who will
make it his business, or her business, for
women are welcomed as members, to report
upon the sanitary condition of the square.
1t is believed that this wide spread member
ship will afford effective means for the dis
semination among people of the most useful
information on sanitary subjects and instruc-
ton in the rules to be followed to prevent the
beginning or the spread Of disease, and of
interesting citizens in sanitary work. so they
win lend cordial cooperation to the efforts of
the League and Of the Health Department to
put the city in the best sanitary condition.
The information obtained by the volunteer in
spectors Of the League experimenting that
securs d by the limited inspection force of the
Healta Department will afford the basis for
the most effective sanitary work. 1t is con-
fdently believed that this work of the
League will result in removing or at
least greatly lessening the danger tina. might
threaten the city in case cholera appeared
on this side of the Atlantic this summer
visitation of cholera. however. appalling such
a thing may seem to the popular mind, Is really
of secondary importance, when the many lives
annually destroyed by preventable diseases,
which have lost their terrors by their constant
presence in the community, are considered.
The League proposes to arouse citizens to a
realization Of the dangers constantly in their
midst and to enlist their efforts in removing
them. 1t proposes a great cooperative associa-
ton Of citizens. whose purpose is to save life
and to make Washington conspicuous among
cities for its healthfulness. Everyone should
be interested III these objects. and should join
the League. general invitation has been ex-
tended by the League to citizens to become
members. The means of enrolling their names.

The esteemed Philadelphia Press. very prop
eriy loyal to Pennsylvania institutions. but a
trids quick on the trigger. is moved to
utterances because a stan officer of the sec
ond brigade of the state troops remained in
thus city for some days after Inauguration day
to investigate charges made against some men,
bers OF two regiments of Brig Gen. Wi
ley's command The accusation was that
tns men had looted = street-stand
but in the opinion of the STAFF officer the
charges were not sustained. Commenting upon
the officers report the Press SAYS that this is
not the first time that similar charges have
been made against Pennsylvania troops in
Washington In fact, they have never
been In that city that some effort has not
been made TO bring them into disre-
pute by accusations of some sort. For
some reason Washington has considerable
prejudice against our guard. and the state au-
thorities may well consider whether under all
the circumstances it is worth while to allow IL
to participate in inaugural parades hereafter. ;,
The only accurate statement in that quotation
b the one that similar charges have been made on
previous occasions. and to that might have been
added the further fact that these ..sim,lar
charges were thoroughly sustained and bv testi-
mony that ema mated from Pennsyly auia militia
men There is nos article of foundation for
saying that local efforts are made TO bring the
Keystone so isrs into disrepute uo- is it fair to
this community to insist that there is prejudice
against the Pennsylvania BOYS in blue. such
munations spring from . supersensiriye-
ness and dislike for honest cr,ti-
eism that presents q phase of Pennsyi-
Wanna character heretofore unknown IL

guardsmen have misbehaved while in this city.

The great question Of dress looms up con-
spicuously in connection with the worlds fair

had to leave New York because of her failure to
observe the conventionalities. The most re-
