Commissioner anderson Holds.

OF late Mayor Kennedy has taken a
very deep interest in school matters =
at least so far as it concerns the GUST
ing of Mr.. TubbS from the Office or
secretary Of the school board. Mr..
Kennedy frankly admits that he does
not like Mr.. Tubhs, but is not 50 hon
est in giving Ills reasons for not liking
him. The Mayor says he does not like
Mr.. Tubbs lust because he uses his
office for political purposes. Now this
is not true, and, moreover, Mayor
Kennedy knows that it is not true.
The Mayor does not like Mr.. Tubbs
because the latter would not deny his
political faith and vote for Mr.. Ken
nedy, but voted for Mr.. PattiSon IN
stead.
The Mayor has been counting school
board noses and lie at least thinks it Is
necessary to Gust Commissioner An
derson of the Ninth ward and get i'll

sure to vote against Mr.. TubbS SO
earnestly has the Mayor advocated

looked up the provisions OF tie charter
Il little and concludes that he was ap-
pointed for three years instead Of one
year rs he himself had at first sup
posed Mr.. Anderson was appointed
June 1, 1892, and if section III OF the
charter means anything it means that
his appointment was for the term OF
three years. The section reads as fol
lows:
section IL Between the 1st and 18th days
of June. 1891. the mayor shall appoint the
first board Of education under tins act. lie
shall divide the members into three classes.
ats nearly a may BE-. and shall appoint thnNc
of one class for one year. those OF another
class for two years. and these OF the remain

herein shall be made upon the ground solely

commissioner shall hold his office Tor the
term designated in said classification. ana

commence on the first Monday in July, l>9'
Thereafter all commissioners shall be ap-
pointed ut the same time of the year rs ABOVE
provided. and shall hold their Offices for
Term OF three years, from the first Monday
in July inclusive.
This gives Mr.. Anderson two years
more. We do not know whether Mr..
Anderson will vote to keep Mr.. TubbS
another year or not, but we do hope he
will refuse to give up his office without
a contest. Judge Marshall Will prob
ably be called upon to decide the dis
Iuted point.

Just that way, Mr.. Waterman. The
people understand that you went there
as a committee of public servants to
investigate and ascertain whether or
not the water company of which Mr..
Cross was general manager, was Civ

water or lake water. If this was your
mission then you had no business to
either go on his invitation nor to ac-
cept his hospitality, and the criticisms
are proper and APPLY bestowed. But if
you just went there as plain, common
citizens to visit public institution,

Mr.. Cross invitation, and to have a
good time generally, then, of course,

Whether accidentally or as the result OF q
hastily-formed desire to be rid Of self-made
cares life was ended last night many years
before it should have terminated naturally.
The fame Of feeble origin that had grown

up blood red to horrify the community, steadily

quaintance. and it will properly be buried in

to have . realizing sense of personal
responsibility. Inebriety, born of desire to
be known as "a good fellow" is just as dam
gerous as that which responds to a depraved
taste, and as frequently results in disaster. The
evils of association with unprincipled men and
money-loving women need no sermon to make
their immortality and consequent destructive
ness apparent. The indisputable facts are here
and this is the proper though painful time for
emphasizing their teachings. One who pos

bankruptcy, and is now fearfully mangled

In connection with the story - to the attack
made by Peruvian mob upon . subconsulate
of the United States it has been said that in
many cases where the natives assault the sub
consulate the trouble is due, not to any sntag.
onism to the country represented, but to
prejudice and ill-feeling against the representa-
tive personally. The allegation continues to
the effect that this is not an uncommon occur
renee in South America or in other parts Of the
world where the acts of . mercantile consular
agent are resented by the people who would re-
spect the acts Of a citizen Of the United States
duly appointed to fun consular position. There
should be no distinction merely because Of .
difference in rank or even in the nationality Of
the agent. Vice-consuls and consular agents
represent this country just as much in the eyes
of foreigners as do consuls, and they should be
as solidly defended as an ambassador would be.

Disinterested voluntary labors for the public

Sanitary League would seem to deserve and
would be expected to receive the unanimous
endorsement of the people. But in truth,
Were all poor critters" and the perverse con-
dItions Of fallen human nature invariably de-
velop few who cast obstacles in the way of
every public movement. no matter how high
and unselfsh its aims. II is unfortunate that
there should be single citizen Of
Washington who, IN q cholera year, would
withhold personal attention and interest from
the sanitary condition OF his premises, Of his
neighborhood, and his city. because there is an
Official who paid to look after these things"
or who would prefer q visit of the cholera to
Washington. that the city's average death
rate shouli remain unduly exalted. that the
health Of the little ones of his family
should be endangered by local conditions exist
ing through ignorance or carelessness, rather
than that sanitary Improvement should be &C
complished through Tom, Dick or Harry,
whom he dislikes and who, he fears, may Sc
cure some measure Of regard from the COM
munity by voluntarily giving time and money
to this public work.
This organized movement of citizens is now
and has been from the beginning In perfect ac-
cord with the District authorities. One Of its
original members and the chairman Of an i'm
portant committee is now the Commissioner In
charge ofthe health department, which has been
recently so gratifyingly active IN sanitary work.
Publications by and concerning the league have
turned the attention Of the citizens to sanitary
matters in an extraordinary degree, and all
over the city the process Of self-inspection,
nuisance-abatement and voluntary cleaning up
is going on as q result. Other cities have be-
come interested in our citizens movement and
propose to follow suit.
The wish of the local authorities, the san
itary league and good citizens generally is to
ward of all danger of a cholera epidemic from
Washington this summer, to reduce materially
the average death rate and to secure for
the capital the same reputation as an epidemic
proof city that adds TO the delights of residence
and swells property values in certain European
cities. Whatever any one does in the direction
of accomplishing these purposes will receive
the approval and cooperating support not only
of every public-spirited but Of every intelli-
