GARBAGE.

Discouraging though the prospect may be
for the perfection Of any important legisla-
tion. either Of general or local interest, at
the present session Of Congress. .rand though
the consideration OF any subject may not rise
above the level OF mere debate. it is yet to be
hoped that along with the other rubbish with
which the national solons may deal, they will
not neglect Washingtons garbage
II is very important question, this OF the
disposal Of garbage. Looking at it right, il
is not simply a local matter, it Is national.
Garbage improperly disposed of is liable to
poison the atmosphere: poisoned atmos-
phere beSets Illness; illness is as apt to at
t.ck Congressman as a tramp; the whole
country furnishes Congressman; ergo, the
garbage OF the National Capital is national
issue.
In all seriousness, something ought to be
done. Congress ought to give the Commis-
sioners authority to make such contracts rs
will give the District q plant for incinerating
garbage. No contractor will agree to erect
such a one unless his contract covers a suffi-
eiently long period and his compensation is
liberal enough TO warrant him in making the
rather heavy expenditures involved in erect
Ing plant of this sort. 1t should not be nee
essary for the Capital Of the country, as the
Commissioners very properly observe in their
annual report. to seek a dumping ground for
it's garbage on the shores Of Virginia or Mary
land. nor should the residents OF the cities be
subjected to the annoyance arising from the
handling Of garbage in hot weather.
II the people Of the District could control
their affairs like the people Of every other city
and village in the country, they would not
have TO bring garbage into the halls OF Con-
gress, but Us it is they have no other choice
