Let Senator Quay ASnlre.

There seems to be great to-dO in political
circles because Senator Quay is. now a
formal candidate for the presidency OF
others who deem the republican nomina-
ton desirable should be inclined to criti-
else Senator Quay's entrance into the field
of possible nominees. but the general pub
lie Is not likely to take a jaundiced view
OF the situation. From tie foundation Of
the republic down to the present time-a
period which includes the boyhood of Sena-
tor Quay-parents and teachers have con-
tnuousiy pointed the youthful mind to the
TACT that 1t was within the bounds of pos
slbiilty for any American-born boy, who
was at the same time not too bad boy,
to become President of the United States:
in fact, that seemed to be the only occu-
patton held up to the juvenile gaze. 1t Is
therefore unlikely that the people of the
United States will be at all surprised be-
cause senator Quay has taken one step
more toward the goal of what has always
been regarded the legitimate ambition
OF all American boys. AS matter OF fact
only an iDfinitesimai percentage of the
youngsters can ever achieve the presi-
dency. and of these perhaps one of the
least likely is Senator Quay. but it is
absurd TO make any serious effort to inter-
1ere with his unquestioned prerogatiye. In
common vita millions of other Americans
ne has an undoubted right to enter the
arena Let him alone. Let every school
Toy in the United States see for himself
that any native-born citizen is at liberty,

every days street-car traffic is the ex-
tIemely small number Of accidents. Some
conductors are more careful than Others
but the great majority of them ring the
starting bell before the outgoing passen-
gers are fairly off the car. Between the
sounding of the bell and the renewal of car
movement there is of course brief period
Of time which, if hurriedly utilized by the
passenger or passengers, may. perhaps,
prove sufficient. but in many instances it
is too short, and as a natural result some
hody gets hurt. Only small percentage of
tfesc mishaps ever come to the notice of
the general public; comparatively few peo-
pie care to complain to the police and make
appearance in the newspapers, while the
railroad company of course makes no men,
ton OF them. Speedy transit is extremely
desirable provided it does not add too
heavily to the average of risks hourly en-
CO antercd by people who use the cars or
the streets. 1t might be the true and
humane policy to lengthen the schedules
minute or so between the terminal points
SO as to give slow-footed or feeble passen-
gers a chance for their lives.

The Logical Result of jackson City.


Those residents of Alexandria and the
county adjoining who have hitherto de-
Tended the existence of the Jackson City
outlaw community the ground that it
was financial benefit to the community
received an object lesson last night by
which they ought to profit. An officer of
the law has been killed and others wounded
as direct result of the spirit of lawless-
ness that has been fostered by the laXity
of the county Officials. 1t is by no means
surprising that The latest efforts of the
sheriff to break up the tranS-POtomac dens
of gamblers thugs and thieves should have
resulted in bioodshed and death; it was to
enjoyed practical immunity from all re-
straint would resort to extreme violence if
the law should presume now to interfere
with the privileges that lapse of time has
confirmed them in believing to be theirs by
right. The county is reaping the
whrlWnd sown months ago. The colony at
Jackson City should have been choked at
the moment it began to develop. 1t has
grown beyond ordinary means Of control,
and nothing short of the most heroic meas
ures will now suffice. The Sheriff of the
County and the Governor of the State to-
day face the responsibility of clearing away
every vestige of the community, or of per-
mitting it to grow into even more impuden,
defiance of the law than ever. until it is
practically independent of the rest of the
state.
