The PoIicemen's Heavy Uniforms

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Alone among created things the unfortu-
nate policeman is compelled, during this
awful weather, to walk, or ride choked
up to the chin, according to police regula-
tions, In q heavy, dark uniform, beneath
the blazing sun. The rest of US find the
weather sufficiently uncomfortable even with
the alleviations of icewater fans and coat
less neglige shirts. If your able paper
would call the attention of those in au-
thority, who are, no doubt. kindly gentle
men, to the matter, 1t would surely be
remedied. This is question not only of
humanity, but of public policy also. Every
thing should be avoided which would i'm
pair the officers physical and mental en-
ergy, which are liable to be exposed to the
severest strain at any moment and with
out which the strong arm of the law" is
but a broken reed. D. X

FAILS TO BOND RAILS.
Electrical Engineers Report Con-
cernfng n Trolley Road.

The District Commissioners have been in
formed by Mr.. w. C. Allen, the electrical
engineer, that the City and Suburban Rail-
way Company has failed to bond its rails
on the trolley road on North Capitol street
and Michigan avenue, although required to
do so by the permit issued to the company
July 1. 1899.
Mr.. Allen says tests have been made at
two or three points on the line, and at the
terminus of the Bunker Hill road, the diff
ference of potential between the water
mains and the rails was as high as sixty
volts, the current entering the mains at
this point. AS the company is operating
this road in violation of the permit under
which 1t was built, Mr.. Allen recommends
that 1t be stopped from so operating it
until 1t has bonded it's rails and provided
sufficient return for the current.

North Carolina and Massachusetts.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
In commenting on the election in North
Carolina why not be honest enough to say
that the people of that state are only seek
ing to adopt the same system for prescrib-
ing the elective franchise that has existed
In Massachusetts for more than fifty years.
READER.
Massachusetts preScribes an educational
test to determine fitness for exercising the
suffrage, but applies 1t uniformly and does
not ask the would-be voter whether he or
his progenitors voted prior to the enfran-
chisement Of the negro. as is proposed in
the North Carolina amendment. which thus
disfranchises the iliterate negro but not
the illiterate white in the following terms:
Section A. Every person presenting him
self for registration shall be able to read
and write any section of the Constitution in
the English language, and before he shall
be entitled to vote he shall have paid on
or before the first day of May of the year
In which he proposes to vote his poll tax
for the previous year, as prescribed by arti-
Gle D, section /, of the constitution. But
no male person who was on January l.
1867, or at any time prior thereto entitled
to vote under the laws of any state in the
United States wherein he then resided and
no lineal descendant of any such person
shall be denied the right to register and
vote at any election in this state by rea-
son of his failure to possess the educational
qualifications herein prescribed. provided
he shall have registered in accordance with
the terms of this section prior to December,
