President and Secretary.
board of experts from the Department
of the Interior and Department of Agri-
culture has been appointed to study the
best method of promoting and developing
irrigation Of the arid lands of the west.
The irrigation problem, which involves
practically all of the land not already pre-
empted for agricultural purposes outside
Alaska, has long been recognized as one
Of the utmost importance, and there have
been several attempts made to study 1t
scientifically, but this has been heretofore
allotted to a number of government bu-
reaus, and their general attitude has been
to grasp everything in sight, and to pur-
sue their work as quietly as possible till
way there has resulted more or less dupli-
cation and occasional controversies over
conflicting interests. The work now, how
ever. will be gathered under the supervision
CT a single board, and the results of the
scattered Investigations will be made ac-
cessible TO the joint workers. The new
board creates no new offices nor officers,
but simply concentrates the efforts of those
already engaged, SO as to make their work
more advantageous.
The board is composed of Charles D. Wal
colt. director of the geological survey;
Mark w. Harrington, chief Of the weather
bureau, Daniel NJ. Browning. commission
er of Indian affairs; Edward A. Bowers,

briefly, rs followsr7 AS a "Sympathizer"
stated recently. a hardship has been IN
ficted upon the bootblacks of the city by

bootblack stands. constituting them as an
obstruction to travel and a menace to life
ard limb. Could not the Commissioners
issue an order for fop-interference on The
part of guardians, of peace" with those
bootblacks having stands SO situated as not
to obstruct public travel?

MAILS ON STREET CARS.
The Plan to Be Soon In Operation In
Several Cities.


Several Cities.
The conference held In New York be-
tween Second Assistant Postmaster Gen.
eral Nelson, Capt James E. White Of the
railway mail service and street railway Off
Gals Of New York will bear fruition in
further advance Of the movement to for
ward mails in large cities by the street
railway lines. Mr.. Nelson has been a firm
advocate of the movement since his initia-
ton into the service, and has been pushing
the plan as rapidly as possible. His efforts.
however. have been retarded to some ex-
tent by the lack Of interest shown by many
of the companies. 1t is now expected that
within short period mail service will be
in operation on two lines in New York
city, two in Philadelphia, the same num-
Der in Brooklyn and one in Chicago.
In Brooklyn and st. Louis one line
each is now being operated, and cars
specially designed for the purpose and
in course of construction in Chicago and
Philadelphia. In Philadelphia and st.
Louis entire cars will be used in carrying
the mails, and half Of the car space will be
devoted to the mails on the Chicago and
Brooklyn lines. A postal clerk will accom-
pany each car, asserting the mail during
the trip, and delivering to messengers from
offices and stations along the route. The
department intends later to have compile
ment of letter carriers accompany the cars
to facilitate delivering Of the malls. and as
rapidly as possible s rect lines in other cit
les will be utilized in like way.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The violation of the fish law of the Dis
trict, as noted in The Star of yesterday,
has begun early. Last year there were
nightly. and almost daily, violations Of the
law between the Aqueduct bridge and the
Little Falls. and but, few arrests were
made. so largely is the sympathy in favor
CT the law-breaker Large numbers of
black bass and shad en- route to the spawn
ing beds were taken In the vicinity of the
Chain bridge. between "sundown and sun
up" by the use of nets in the months of
April and May. and the question has been
much discussed among anglers as to the
best methods to get the violators Of the
law before the Police Court. A strong de-
tective force. well armed, will doubtless be
formed. ~ A. ]. W.
