Education In the United States Senate.

One does not have to be educated to sit ill the United States senate. A mil lionaire senator from a western state rarely writes letter or anything else which involves a display of his limited knowledge of the theory and practice of English orthography On one occasion he had to write letter, and being taken to task for having spelled "prairie" "pray" somewhat tostily explained "I don't care a rap whether can spell or not. I can hire q young man for BIO week to do all my spelling for me. ''- Chicago Times Herald.

improvement in the service and solution
for long time Of the ever-pressing problem
of how to give a growing city sufficient
water supply. There has been little seri-
Gus doubt about the stability of the tunnel,
if completed with honest workmanship, al
though the question of cost has been suffi-
cient hitherto to make the legislators as well
as the local taxpayers hesitate about indors-
Ing the idea Of utilizing it. If Major Knight
has ascertained by actual experiments and
careful calculations that the completion of
the tunnel be successfully performed
without making the cost outweigh the re-
turn. there is reason to hope that the vast
expenditure that at one time seemed to be
absolutely wasted may eventually be of
service to the people Of the District,
who We're made to bear their share of the
burden regardless of the success or failure
of the enterprise. This report will have
great weight coming from an excellent Of
ficer after thoroughly practical inquiry,
and approved by such officials as Gen. Casey
and his successor at the head of the engineer
corps, Gen. Craighill

Baltimores police managed to keep out
of any unpleasant encounters with the tough
element of that city during the election
Tuesday, and in doing they exhibited an
Indifference to the lawless actions of large
numbers of toughs and "heelers'' which
practically amounted to connivance with the
brutal methods of interference of the agents
Of the bosses. The marshal of the city,
when appealed to for aid, promised "to do
his best" to suppress the disorder and pro-
tect the voters. but he apparently had no
influence with his men or they had no power
over the toughs, for the interference with
the balloting continued throughout the day
The reform administration of the city might
well begin its work by a thorough investi-
cation of the inaction of the police on elec-
tion day and by taking steps to clean out
what Is apparently today a partisan organi-
zation. Baltimores election was marked by
more disgraceful scenes than have been
Known for years, and the exhibition of m
efficiency on the part of the men who are
sworn to protect the voters in the exercise
OF their rights was fitting climax to the
record OF misrule in the city.

The Use of Wealth.

Mr. Andrew Carnegie, in his speech at
Pittsburg Tuesday at the dedication of
the magnificent public library that he has
presented to the people of that city, made
certain statements about the value and
uses of personal wealth that are worthy
of serious consideration both by those who
like Mr. Carnegie are rich and those whose
tendency it is to berate without discrimi-
nation he possessors of Independent means.
After declaring that one of the most diff
cult problems with which mankind has to
deal is the doing of genuine good and not
mischief by the giving Of money, he as
serted that under existing industrial con-
ditiors, not to be changed in modern days.
but which may be modified in the course of
centuries. surplus wealth must sometimes
go into the hands of few. However, the
number of these, he declared, will become
less and less under the present conditions,
which are rapidly causing a more general
distribution of wealth. Then he expressed
his deep pity for those who possess wealth
ard nothing else and who fail to see in the
surplus that fortune has given them a
splendid opportunity for bettering the ply
scal moral and mental conditions of the
poorer classes. He drew a sharp distinc-
tion between the philanthropy which helps
the masses to obtain a greater enjoyment
cf the physical appetites and that form of
giving which contributes to the intellectual
elevation of men and women whose cond
tions prevent their early education. The
library which Mr.. Carnegie has given is
magnificent example of v ell directed char
ity and phils thropy. Its architectural
beauties and the specimens of art which 1t
contains are wholesome influences, and the
thousands CT volumes which it will eventu-
ally offer Pittsburg's people cannot fail to
prove a medium of enlightenment and de-
velopment Mr. Carnegie creates and Pitts
burg supports by taxation this library. 1t
is fully expected that by a similar wise
combination of private subscription and
municipal support a Washington public
library will be established by the incoming
Congress. not on the magnificent scale of
course of the Pittsburg library but be-
ginning will be made on sound modern
foundation. and the structure will grow.

No Discrimination Against Greater
Washington.

If there is to be any amendment by this
Congress of the act relating to the extern
sion of the capitals highways there should
be first of all a correction of the unjust
and injurious provision which exempts the
United States from any financial responsi-
bility as to the streets of the Greater Wash
ington, and saddles the entire expense of
their creation and maintenance upon all tax
payers of the District except Uncle Sam
and all adjacent property owners except
Uncle Sam. The United States should not
thus by indirection overthrow the equitable
arrangement under which it shares all
municipal expenses of the federal District,
and repudiate its just obligations, repeated
ly recognized as such, in respect to the
National Capital. 1t is nonsense to con-
tend that the nations guardianship of the
"ten miles square," with all its RESPONSE
bilties and duties, is limited to any less
area than every inch of the existing fed
erai District. The position that one side of
Florida Avenue. formerly Boundary Street,
is the ward of the nation, and that the
other side is not, is absolutely untenable.

The full returns of New York city's elec-
ton of Tuesday should not discourage the
friends of municipal reform. Already the
Tammany leaders realizing that 1t was
but hollow success when achieved by such
a bare margin as approximately twenty
thousand votes, as compared with former
years when the city was swept by majori-
ties of 5000 and 100000. The spoils this
year are inconsiderable and, the leaders pro-
test, are hardly worth the expense and trou-
BILE of the fierce campaign through which the
organization has just passed. Tammany's
success in the past has been more or l,ss
self-perpetuating, as the patronage proceeds
of one victory were made to lay the founda-
tion for even stronger machine in the next
campaign. The figures of Tuesdays contest
show that the Tammany success was due
almost entirely to the stay-at- home reform
votes, ard this apathy can be accounted for
by either or both of two plain reasons The
issues were family drawn and the fusion
was too evidently political in its nature
1t is plain that there Is still a ,atent
strength in New York in the interest of bet
ter government that, If aroused by vital
issues or the sting of new scandals, is sufIi-
cient at any time to break the ring rule 1t
is interesting to note that a contributing
influence to Tammany's success was the
vote OF the German organization whose
members are known in passing vernacular
as "Garoos," and who indorsed Tammany
as means of obtaining more liberal excise
regulations. Had the Germans voted as a
unit for fusion the Tammany ticket whould
have been beaten, but the faction that sup
ported that ticket has now the dubious sat
isfaction of local success with the almost
certain assurance that the republican legis-
lature will grant no relief in the way of
wide-open Sunday laws. which Tammany
shire" diy held out as an inducement for this
support. Tammany's partial victory is no
more permanent in it's character and results
than was its preceding overthrow.

Sometimes voters have reasonable excuse
Tor staying away from the polls. An in
stance In point is furnished by statement
wired from Harrisonburg, Va, to explain
why the poll-books and ballots were all re-
turned unused yesterday to the proper Off
Gals from certain voting precinct. 1t was
announced that the voters were too busy
shucklng corn to attend to the election and
tnat none could be induced to serve as judges
or clerks. When industry gets in the way
OF political excitement in this manner it
speaks well for the prosperity of the COM
munity There are times, however, when
even corn-shucking must make way for
voting, issues directly affecting the people
being at stake.

The AQucduct Tunnel.

No other report submitted to Congress
during the winter pertaining to local af-
fairs will be of mere interest to the people
of Washington than that of Major Knight
of the army engineer corps. whose duty for
several months it has been to investigate the
condition OF the long-abandoned aqusduct

reason to expect that this report will favor
a completion of the tunnel and the reservoir,
