The Memorial Ilridre.

There is one bill pending before Congress
relating to a local matter that should be
comparatively easy of final enactment at
the coming session, as it has already passed
the Senate and has behind it Il strong off,
ciai influence. This is the bill providing for
the construction CT a memorial bridge
across the Potomac river to connect the
Washington shore with the Arlington reser-
walton. Quartermaster General Sawtelle
urges the project in his annual report and
points out that such bridge would afford
direct and rapid communication between
Myer, which is at present almost isolated
from the capital. The nearest means of
access is the iqueduct Bridge, which offers
only circuitous route to the center of the
city and is not over strong. The Long
Bridge is out of the question for such a pur-
pose, and the growing traffic between Wash
ington and Virginia demands a new and
modern structure directly under the control
of the government. The memorial features
of the project add to Its desirablity A
cheap bridge is bad investment and an
architecturally ugly bridge Is the product
of useless economy. structure that in
clrdes both strength and beauty is deserv-
ed by the nations capital, whose bridges
are now a disgrace. Secretary Lamont will
find no more worthy object of his energetic
labor in dealing with Congress this winter
than the memorial bridge bill.

Aquatfcs ut the NnvaI Academx-

Captain Cooper. superintendent of the
Naval Academy, calls attention in his an
nual report to peculiar state of affairs at
that institution. He indicates that the ca
dets have taken so generally to such sports
as base ball and foot ball that they have
practically abandoned the water as a field
fer athletic exercise. Time was when a
naval cadet or a mdshipman was quite as
much at home in or the water as on
land, and consequently he learned to love
the element so intimately part of his pro-
sue h a sharp rivalry fer athletic honors be
tween the educational institutions as to
considerably discount aquatics Boating
has had somewhat of a revival but foot
ball continues, strangely enough, to hold
first place in the hearts of American
students, despite its roughness ard dan
gers. Captain Cooper hopes to cultivate
anew some of the old-time love for the
water in the hearts of Uncle Sans young
sailors. and to this end he has provided
two eight-oared shells and several Other
boats for racing. Clean, honest sport of
this kind on the water can not be sur
passed as means of developing muscle
grit and staying qualities and in counter
acting the unhappy tendency to thickness
that seems to pervade most modern out
door sports. Considered purely from the
standpoint OF affording necessary exercise
racing shell is conceded to be almost
equal to gymnasium and far superior to
the football gridiron.

Street Cleaning by Hand.

Hand work in street sweeping is undoubt-
edly more thorough than machine work.
for obvious reasons, and the result of the
former is naturally cleaner streets. The re-
cent experiments on this line in Washing
ton have shown that cleaning by hand
costs but little more than the machine sys-
tenn. 1t Is not conclusively proved that the
ccst of hand work. IL done on a large scale
with view to permanence would exceed
al all that of the machines. though tho
Consequence of an adoption of the former
Tor considerable fraction of the streets
would doubtless be the need of a larger
appropriation. the present allotment being
concededly too small for thoroughly salts
factory work under any system. The mos
ton is whether the better results are worth
a small possible additional cost. There can
be little doubt of the answer given nv :.

gladly pay trifie more if they could enjoy
the fruits of their expenditure in cleaner
streets.

The question of an extra session of the
Fifty-fifth Congress grows in interest.
Prominent republicans are quoted on each
side Those who favor the suggestion
point to the necessity of early action both
with regard to the tariff and the currency.
The verdict just rendered at the polls
should. they hold, be put into effect at
cEce. Those who oppose the suggestion
offer as their reason the belief that an ex-
ira session of Congress would revive dis
trust and uncertainty. and throw the coun-
try back into the agitation from which it
has just emerged Their phrase is that the
country needs a rest and wants a rest
Much. of course, depends upon the deyel-
opments Of the next three months. Some
things are very pressing and must be met
For one thing in particular, the govern
ment must have more revenue If the Sem
ate at this short session should rise above
the lines that divided it at the long session
and pass the Dingley bill, or some meas
ure of like import and that added to the
revival of business now in progress, should
tone up the general situation, the need Of
an extra session of the next Congress
would be greatly modified, if it did not en-
tirely disappear. But If the Senate still
halts at revenue measure, putting again
the interests of party and faction above
those cSthe country and adjourns, with no
provision made for the proper support of
the government, then the new Congress

A Complicated Situofion

The Eckihgton-Belt rapid transit question
is In peculiar shape and Judge Cox will
find 1t no easy task to unravel the intriea-
cies of the situation when he decides next
Monday upon the receivers application for
permission to raise funds to make an ex

he recently invited proposals The law

Reciprocity and the Monroe Doctrine.

European powers insist on constituting the
Monroe doctrine to suit themselves They
profess to be unable to in it anything
but the establishment of a protectorate by
the United States over all territory In
North and South America. They argue
that If the United States may interfere at
all in any matter coming up in controversy
between a power on this Side of the water
and power on that side. 1t must become
responsible for the conduct of the powers
on this side.
As absurd as this proposition is. 1t yet
conveys valuable suggestion And the
suggestion is that the influence OF the
United States should be materially in
creased and strengthened throughout the
whole of the territory mentioned. The
United States is the great power of the
western hemisphere, and will remain SO.
1t is the guide for all the lesser powers.
They fashion their institutions well as
may be after the patterns found here.
They reckon themselves fortunate and
prosperous by their ability to copy what
exists and fiourishes here.
The best means for drawing the countries
of this hemisphere the more closely to-
Sether are the means of trade. Why
should not those means be employed?
Why should Brazil, or Argentina. or Vene
zCela. or any other of those countries. send
10 Europe for anything that the United
States can supply? Why should not the
United States have the call? And of
course, why should not the products of
those countries that are needed here have
the preference here?
This policy. it will be remembered was
inaugurated under the reciprocity clause of
the Mckinley bill, and. as far as applied. it
worked exceedingly well. Trade with sew
eral of the countries to the south, and no
tably with Brazil, grew amazingly and
would have continued to grow. But reci-
rroc!ty was condemned with other things
as the result of the elections of 1892 and
as soon as the new Congress could get at
pealed.
Those conventions should be renewed
and still others established. The next Con-
sress will take up the subject, and the op-
portunity will be propitious for the inaugu.
ration of a broad and well considered policy
OF that kind Such policy goes appropri-
ately with the policy of protection. and the
tEited States and it's neighbors should
have the fullest benefit of it. All would
profit by it: and encouraged and built
up. the Central and South American re-
publics would soon become such valuable
and powerful coadjutors that the United
States would not find it necessary to raise
a warning hand in any way against en-
Croaehments from across the sea.

six months from June 10 the companies
should cease to use horse power on all of
their lines. But In the event OF a failure
of the air motors to meet the approval Of
the Commissioners, the companies should,
within eighteen months from June 10, in
stall on all their city lines an underground
electric system. The act provided a pen
atty of $50 a day for the violation of any
of the provisions Of the section embracing
these requirements.
The first period of three months passed
without an attempt being made to tegin
the experiment. There has, therefore,
been no preliminary trial for the informa-
tion of the Commissioners. The six
months period is about to end without
tfe appearance of the motors. A strict
construction of the statute will take from
the companies December 10 the right TO
continue the compressed air experiment.
If it could be demonstrated to the salts
faction Of the court and the public that
the companies have used due diligence and
have shown good faith in the effort to Sc
cure a compressed air equipment. there
could be little disposition on the part OF
the public to question the advisability of
giving the statute a liberal Interpretation
and permitting the experiments to pro-
ceed.- The law has already been violated
by the failure of the company to begin the.
experiments within three months. 1t is i'm
possible now to meet the other require
ments. 1t Is perhaps to the local interest
to have a speedy, inexpensive test of the
best compressed air motor which can be
found. The people of this city do not be-
lieve. however, that the company has
shown good faith in dealing with the air
motor matter, and. waving the question OF
legality, they will protest against any ex-
perimenting in this direction, unless the
court compels an immediate test of the
best air motor now In existence and actual
operation. Two ferns Of compressed air
cars are, it is said, in practical operation
in New York today. 1t should be possible
to arrange with one or both of the COM
panies owning the two systems to send
here at once for trial one Of their New
York cars. 1he public will protest against
any air motor program which means mere
ly device for delay, until Congress can
be approached for relieving legislation.
