The greater Washington is to be Gistin-
suished by the same beauty and broadness
of scheme and richness of detail that are
so universally admired and commended in
the plan of the city as 1t now is. In addi-
ton to the extension of the present system
Of streets. avenues, squares, and circles
beyond the city boundaries. the map of
street extension. which Is now being pre-
pared by the District Commissioners, will
especially provide for system of boule-
wards connecting the parks beyond Florida
avenue with those that are now in the city
proper. This part of the work has been
assigned to the distinguished landscape en-
gineer. Frederick Law Olmstead; 1t IS Il
magnificent opportunity and will probably
he the final achievement in career which
has plac ii Mr.. Olmstead az the head Of
his profession. The task is worthy of the
lest talent of the country. Briefly stated,
the purpose Is to connect the Mall and the
recently reclaimed Potomac hats-which
form it's natural continuatlon-with the
beautiful Rock Greek region within the
borders of the Geological and Rock Geek
parks. thence by a carefully selected drive
way to the grounds OF the Soldiers Home
and then a boulevard sweeping along the
northern and eastern border of the city to
the park which will one day take the place
Of the unsightly and noisome marshes of
the Eastern Branch. Within this area will
be carried cCt the plan Of L'Enfant so that
the greater Washington instead of being
less beautiful than the artistic conception
of the once urappreciated French officer,
who 50 wisely planned the National Capital,
Will surpass II.

Interest in today's elections is of two
sorts-:nOral and political; moral as to New
York and political as TO other states and
cities Throughout New York the division
among men is not on partisan lines: the
opposing forces are made up respectively
of tho who believe in good government
and those who do not II may be argued
that this Is only so I'm New York city. but
those who know how intimate is the rela-
tienship between the government Of New
York city and the government of the state
will rot be able to disdssociate the one
from the other. The intimacy is admitted
by TGmmany, for prominent members of
that malodorous Organization have been
betting on the success Of the anti-Tammany
ticket in the city. but have worked with
all the skill and strength they possess to
insure the election of David d. Hill as gov
ernor; they realize that for the present at
least they could hope for but little in the
city; V it'll the republicans i'm control of the
state Tammany might be legislated out of
existeEce. There were thus presented two
evils-rrofitless seciusIon for awhile or COM
plete humiliation. What appeared to be
the least of these has apparently been
chosen. for Tammany seems to have made
up its mind that the good government
ticket will be successful in the city; Tam
many is endeayoring TO make a virtue out
of a political necessity when 1t pretends TO
be careless to the city vote and anxious
to the conflict in the state. Outside of
New York the tariff question Is undoubt-
edly more important than any other cam
paign issue Two years ago the nation de-
Cded In favor of change: today II will
let the world know whether the change
agreed with II CT not.

Indications come from Chicago to show
that New York has no monopoly upon the
pleasures of the '"Tammany" system of
municipal control. The disclosures made by
the Lexow investigation might tend to show
to some folks that Gotham had a corner on
the corruption market, tor there is a cur
ious belief among some optimists that there
is only about so much villainy in the world.

DIR. Godiing's plea for the establishment
OF ain inebrate. asylum In this city may re-
suit in revival Of the energy which some
time ago was congresslonally applied In the
interest of such a foundation that for
which the doctor argues with 50 much of
fierce and so much of reason For awhile 1t
seemed as though the endeayor of the many
sincere men and women interested in the
plan would surely bring success but Congress
suddenly became economical and by being
so as to the proposed asylum saved few
dollars and wasted a great many. 1t used
to be that temperance lecturers were few
and often unlearned: today they are many.
and among them are some of the brightest
of our scientific lights. AS superintendent
of the Government Hospital for the Insane
DIR. Goiding has had exceptional facilities
for studying the effects of alcohol upon the
human body and the human mind; his con-
demnation of strong drink is therefore not
the unreasonable condemnation of a fanatic
hut the deliberate conclusion of man who
takes nothing for granted and who can only
be convinced by indisputable testimony.
The medical treatment of those who are
victims of the drink habit is a subject in
v hlch the general government and state
legislatures may properly become interested.

Among the police court Items in The Star
yesterday evening was one in which 1t ap-
peared that one of two young men who had
been speeding horse mp Pennsylvania ave-
nue. Sunday night-a horse that collided
with a pedestrian-had been arrested and
had forfeited the $40 collateral which he de-
posted at the station house. In many cases
the forfeiture of the collateral Is accepted
by the authorities as a satisfactory conclu-
sion. but in this instance the mere loss of
SO Is insufficient punishment Fast driving
is common offense and one of the most
dangerous of misdemeanors; 1t has never
been repressed here as 1t should have been,
the excuse most frequently offered by the
police being that the parties were unknown
and uncatchable. In this instance. both the
guilty parties appear to have been identi-
fled. What reason can be given for their
not being punished severely

ton TO the squeezing of these functionaries

word has been passed along that the mem
