Probabilities favorable to anything like
Immediate legislation on matters of great
importance to the District of Columbia can
hardly be said to exist; possibilities there
are. but even the outlines of probabilities
continue to be invisible. The House has
attended to two or three important bills
but Senatorial action is needed to make the
efforts effective. and. with the tariff bill
blocking the only thoroughfare. the chances
for anything other than long delay and
perhaps ultimate disappointment are very
slim. Occasionally-too frequently-there
are displays OF petulance by Congressman
and their voting constituents because the
people of the District necessarily insist that
Congress should attend to this or that local
matter. Such ir1ratience is unjust to a
community that is compelled to depend
entirely upon Congress for a thousand and
one aids to municipal government. which in
other cities are supplied by local boards
elected by residents. 1t should be remem-
bered by the more or less impatient ones
that in the towns they come from most of
the legislating is done by councils that sit
at least once a week and that do more real
business in one meeting than either branch
OF Congress is likely to do for the District
OF Columbia In a whole session. Congress
Is this city's council and board of aldermen
and state legislature. and the city has not
even one direct representative in either
branch Of the controlling body to raise a
voice In behalf Of a too-heavily taxed people.
National considerations are necessarily su-
preme. but 1t does seem as though some
arrangement could be made by which the
District Of Columbia would be able to secure
an occasional hour or two Of the Senate's
time. so that the almost-clogged wheels of
important enterprises should at once be set
IN heaitnful motion. Washington is not
merely large center Of population; it is
the nations capital and should be treated as
such. Every Senator and Representative
should take pride in beautifying and i'm
proving what is already the most attractive
place of residence in the western hemis-
phere.

Yesterday evening, Assistant Secretary
Curtis Of the Treasury Department at
tended in New York the annual banquet of
the American Institute of Architects, an in
dlcation that there has been or Is soon to
be a renewal of the severed diplomatic rela-
tions between the Institute and the Treas
Ury Department. 1t is hoped that such q
result will speedily be achieved, for 1t would
be shame to have the little disagreement
between Secretary Carlisle and President
Durham interfere with the popular plan Of
giving to the best architects in the country
the work of designing public buildings.
From all over the land has gone up the cry
for better order of government archi-
lecture. and the cry will continue and will
increase in volume until those who can by
acquiescence put stop to the agitation do
their duty in broadly liberal way The
public is not asking for a vague or indefinite
reform; it know what il wants and proposes
to get 1t. 1t is tired of Old barns and struc-
lures that closely resemble grain-eleyators.
and has had enough of the deliberate and un-
necessarily expensive construction hitherto
and even now SO common in connection
with government contracts. 1t has been
shown conclusively that the engagement of
private architects will be more economical
looking at the subject from the purely
financial standpoint-than the method now
in vogue, while in the matter of architec-
ture it would not be reasonable to institute
comparison. The Treasury authorities and
the American Institute of Architects should
bury the Ratchet in the foundations pre-
pared for big government structure, and
then have President Burnham put up a
magnificent monument upon the grave.

no more than an act of humanity on the
part of the United States government at
this time to declare without equivocation
its policy with reference to the deposed

that the President made blunder last au-
tumn when he attempted to subvert the
provisional government at Honolulu and to
recrown Liliuokalani. Mr.. Frye promises
to persist In his effort to secure a vote I'M
til the Senate shall act. He asks nothing
more than an official declaration that the

this side Of the Pacific know full we'll that
such policy could not be maintained for

of Congress on this subject has been thor

The law OF compensation still abides to
work its wonders In the realm of nature,
IL press dispatches from the south in re-
gard to the watermelon are to be believed.
A month ago both peaches and water
melons promised to be discouragingly few.
but now it is said by reliable authorities
that the young watermelons are big as
small boys fist and appear to be growing
nicely. The FROST although late and severe,
did not cause much damage. An inspection
Of the melon territory in the southeastern
part of Georgia shows that the area Of
cultivation this season Is 1876 acres, as
compared with $3.50 acres last year. The
crop this year will ripen about one week
late, and the first shipment will not be
made before June 10. A few cars may
come in from Florida before that. One
railroad company running through south
eastern Georgia handled 1858 cars of
watermelons from that section last year.
1t is thought that in spite of the de-
creased acreage. the shipments will be al
most as heavy this year. OF the peach crop
no such good news is forthcoming. The cry
of wolf proved true this time. Except in
Florida, where a fun crop is expected. and
lower Mississippi and Texas. where the in
dications favor partial crop. there will be
Out rev peaches IN the commercial OrcnafuS
of the United States lying east of the Rocky
mountains and south of Pennsylvania.
North of the southern boundary line of
Pennsylvania less damage was done, and
the outlook for peaches is good In the larger
portion of Pennsylvania and New Jersey,
northern Ohio, western Michigan and the
Hudson river district in New York In
western New York and in the Connecticut
valley the percentage of live peach buds is
small. but with favorable weather a partial
crop may be expected. On the Pacific slope
NO serious injury to bucs or young fruit
occurred and the outlook is good for a full
crop of all kinds. The new orchard country
in Utah. Idaho. Nevada, Colorado and Ari-
iona also escaped. 1t is therefore apparent
that peaches eaten on this side of the con-
tinent this year will have to come from the
Pacific west and the north Virginia has but
three per cent of her crop left, Maryland
will have less than half crop and Georgia
Is going to have but one per cent of the ex-
pected harvest The peach-crop liar is sim
ply nowhere this year. But there will be
