AN OFFICIAL RESIDEN CE

1t was lately proposed by a citizen o.
Washington in letter to one of the local
papers that Congress should appropriate
S1OO,0 for summer residence for the
exclusive use of the President, to be built
in Rock Creek Park, which lies to the
north of the city. This site would be fully
worthy of such distinguished tenant.
The reservation is owned by the govern
ment, and is being developed into one of
the most picturesque parks of the East
Inc rental OF summer residence by the
President amounts to no mean figure. 1t
must be leased for fully year, and dur
Ing occupancy must be a rendezvous for
public men from all parts of the country.
Presidents are apt to subject themselves
to severe criticism by going far away
from Washington simply for pleasure.
They never know what may turn up the
next day to demand their attention.
Cleveland was condemned for starting on
one OF his fishing trips just when the
Venezuelan controversy was at Crisis.
Grant was abused because he went often
to Long Branch, and cry was raised be-
cause Buchanan spent great deal OF
his time rusticating at Bedford Springs.
While Washington was President he
spent his vacations at Mount Vernon.

was then at New York. 1t required four
or five days for his mail to reach him
from the metropolis. John Adams re-
cuperated at his Massachusetts, estate at
Braintree. He left Washington every
year, about as soon as Congress ad-
Journed, and stayed away until fall.
Jefferson spent his vacations at Month
cello. Likewise Monroe, Jackson and
Van Buren, went each summer to their
country places. Lincoln was very con-
scientious about leaving Washington. He
spent few months each summer at the
Presidents cottage at the Soldiers Home
which was occupied by several other
Presidents since his time. Grant was
fond of the seashore, as were Harrison
and Garfield. Grant always spent his
leisure moments at Long Branch, to
which place Garfield was going when as
sassinated. Harrison took two clerks
with him to his cottage at Cape May and
kept in close touch with Washington all
the time he was there. Hayes was great
traveller, and probably opened more
country fairs and dedicated more monu-
ments than have all the other Presidents

the new President is not SO fond of rough

M'KlNLEY'S COTTAGE.
Where He Win Spend the Summer Days

Preparations are making to move the
Presidential household to Mckinley
newly rented farm on the Virginia side
of the Potomac. 1t cannot be said that
the President will spend his vacation at
this modest retreat, The chief executive
of this country has no vacation SO long as
he remains on dry land, in reach of either
telegram or courier
So far AS location is concerned, Nc
Kinley would be as cool at the Executive
Mansion on a hot summer day as any
where else in the vicinity of the capital.
His private lawn, shaded with tall trees
and sprinkled with cooling fountains,
leads directly down to the Mall, which
wide park gives him an unobstructed
lew Of the river. Across this space of
reen grass the southern breezes of sum-
mer find their way directly from the shad-
ed Virginia hills into the White House
windows.
Yet there is every reason why the SER
want of seventy millions of people should
prefer a modest frame cottage, screened
from the public thoroughfare by clump
of trees and reached only by long, mar
row lane, to a large public building, half
office and half dwelling house. If he
wishes to sit on his piazza in his shirt

CONNECTED WITH THE WHITE
HOUSE.
Cherry Farm will be connected with the
White House offices by special wire.
Secretary Porter will be at the executive
offices during the day, and will probably
spend each night at the farm, his wife
remaining there with Mrs. Mckinley.
Such important correspondence as may
demand the Presidents immediate atten-
ii during the day will be brought to
him by one of the correspondence clerks
or messengers of the White House. The
government provides the executive offices
with IA coupe and two pairs Of horses for
running such eTrands as these. This
equipage will doubtless be on the go
between the two abodes of the President
daily during the occupancy of the farm
The correspondence clerk, also known
as the executive clerk, has the privilege
of opening all of the Presidents mail ex-
cept that of personal nature, and is sup
posed to exercise his discretion in allow
ing only the most important letters to
reach the desk of the chief magistrate.
By means of the private wire Cherry
Farm will be kept in touch with the
world at large, and particularly with the
various departments and bureaus of the
government, all of which are connected
with the White House by special tele-

Mr.. Mckinley has not as yet decided
whether he will remain near the scene
of his duties during the entire summer,
or whether he will spend few weeks at
some summer resort after the adjourn

inclined to get away from the routine he
will be at liberty to avail himself of the
pleasures and comforts of his official
yacht, the Dolphin. Should he wish to
entertain any number of friends aboard
this craft, however, for any considerable

Of course it was not to be expected that
anything like full vote would be thrown
in the third district. People can never
be stirred up when there is no doubt
about the result, as was the case in this
election. Under the circumstances the
vote was as large as could reasonably be
expected. AS was natural the Demo-
cratic vote showed the greater decline.

of his estimates of the distribution of
wealth in the United States is of the
opinion that in 1889, more than half the
entire wealth of this country was owned
by less than A, 900 persons, and that the
number of these persons grows smaller
every year. Several years have elapsed
since these statistics were collected and
unless the law of progression has ceased
to operate, which is not at all likely, it is
probable that the further estimate that
more than three fourths of the entire
wealth of the country is now owned by
$50, 600 persons is not far out of the way.
