Washington certainly, and we think the
country generally, will welcome the
United States Daughters Of 1872, " who are
about to be incorporated by Congress. We
already have the Colonial Danes" the
Holland Danes the Legion OF Loyal
Women" the Daughters of the American
Revolution" and Washington used to re-
IoIce in a society of Rising Sons and
Daughters Of Abraham and Isaac" (col-
oredD.
We cannot have too many Daughters"
with their annual convocations, their deep
and mysterious discussions of parliamen-
tary law their Respondent ribbons and
badges, and their Presidents General, Vice
Presidents General and Assistant Acting
Doorkeepers General. They do US all good,
and when they come to Washington the
city very properly rises in their honor, and
very few citizens. indeed. leave town. The
United States Daughters Of 1872 should
be followed at once by the Daughters of
the Mexican War" and the Daughters of
the Rebellion" Then in a few years the
Roosevelt patent viii expire and We can
have the strenuous Daughters of 1895"
There is room as well as need for all of
them.
OF course, it may be said that so many
Daughters" ought not TO run about the
country without chaperons. The "Dlugh-
tiers Of the Revolution" may easily have
acquired habits which would not suit
either the complications or the digestion of
the Daughters of the Spanish War" and
the United States Daughters of -1S12"
might object to sharing the same play
ground with the Holland Danes" but
these are details. High above all these
youthful associate is the Congress CT
Mothers" with a jurisdiction ranging from
Maine to Manila, and an experience dating
back to 1892. In, the, presence Of the
Mothers" the Daughters" will always
behave. ~

THE THIRD AVENUE ROAD.
metropolitan Interests Anxious TO
Secure Immediate Control.

NEW YORK March 22.-Herbert II.
Vreeland. President of all the surface
railroads in Manhattan and the Bronx;
Thomas +. Ryan, one OF the five principal
owners Of all the surface railroads of
which Mr.. Vreeland is president and
Hugh J. Grant, receiver OF the Third Ave
nue. Railroad, had conference in Mr..
Grants Office this afternoon. When the
conference was over none of the three
thought the public would be interested in
what happened. One Of the directors OF
the Third Avenue road, however. explained
to certain extent what the railroad men
had been talking about. He said that
scheme was afoot to get control Of the
Third Avenue without waiting for all the
judicial action now pending. He added:
What the Metropolitan people want is
to get into actual control of their newly
acquired properties as soon as possible.
IT, for instance all the creditors of the
road could be got together and brought to
an agreement on a scheme submitted by
the Metropolitan folks for paying all the
claims. why. everybody would be satisfied
and no objection would be made to mo-
tion to the court to discharge the receiver.
The Metropolitan people will come into
control Of all the Third Avenue properties
much sooner than most folk generally
imagine. How long before this will hap
pen | do not care to say. but if you were
to guess that it would be less than
month l do not think your guess would be
far out OF the way"
From another source it was learned that
the real reason why the Metropolitan peo-
pie are in hurry to get control OF the
Third Avenue system is that they want TO
finish certain improvements now in prog
Tess as quickly as possible.
Much less excitement attended the trad
ing in Third Avenue shares today than on
the two days previous, but the fluctuations
were fairly wide. 1t closed at los Sd, with
a net loss on the day OF IA Of point
20,510 shares having been dealt in. The
premium for loans of the stock declined
to 1-32 per cent.

that uniformity in the importation of imposts,
duties and excuses shall be observed in one than
the other"
At the time Of this utterance The ter
ritory west of the Missouri" was entirely
unorganized and wild It was far from
being as completely within the govern
mental control of the United States as
Porto Rico is to-day. yet in 1920 the Su-
preme Court declared that it was as
much subject to the provisions and pro
hibitions Of the Constitution as Mary
land or Pennsylvania. There is no
sophistry that can get around this decree.
reaffirmed over and over again by Mar
shalIs successors down to the present
day It viii be reaflirmed once more and
with emphatic conciusiveness when the
present Court is allowed to pass upon the
question. The Republican Senators who
skulkcd and lodged the Alien amendment
know this as well as the Sun does or
as Mr.. Mckinley does himself.

CAPE NOME MINING CLAIMS.
Secretary Root Says No Exclosise
Concessions Have Been Granted.


Concessions Have been Granted.
Secretary Root yesterday made an ex-
PLANTATION in answer to the enquiries OF a
reporter which showed that there was no
truth in the charge that an exclusive right
70 dredge for gold OF Cape Nome had been
sIanted by the War Department 20 George
W. Esterly. Of Minnesota. Deputy Auditor
OF the State Department The charge was
made the subject Of a resolution presented
10 the Senate Wednesday by Mr. Turner
OF Washington calling on the Secretary OF
War for all information OF the alleged
granting OF an exclusive franchise
There is a statute said Mr. Root
which forbids anybody 10 drsdge in the
navigable waters Of the tinted States with
out the authority of the Secretary OF War
Many applications to do dredging in navi-
gable rivers and other waterways have
been received-sO many that we have a
printed form Of permit. II the Secretary
OF War is satisfied that navigation will not
be interfered with in any particular case
the application is granted In the Cape
Nome case the application was made for
permission TO dredge in the sea of that
place within the three mile limit Of Amer
lean jurisdiction. II was found that such
dredging would not interfere with navi-
cation and the permit was granted on one
Of the regular printed forms. Anybody
who applied would have been granted a
similar right. Several such applications
have been received and the necessary au-
thority has been and is being forwarded
to the applicants.
The permit about which question has
been raised does not give exclusive au-
thority to dredge of Cape Nome. Any
body who has applied for similar privileges
may dredge in the same spot The Gov
eminent has no right TO the sands in the
bottom of the ocean. but It asserts the
right. in an act OF Congress to prevent
anybody from taking up that sand within
the three-mile limit IL his operations in
terfere with navigation We found that
dredging within the three mile limit OF
Cape Nome would not interfere with navi-
CATION and have granted and are granting
permits which are not exclusive In any
sense A permit does not give the right
to dredge in any particular fixed area
within the three-miIe limit. II merely
grants immunity from punishment to any
person who dredges within that limit
In answer to another question. Mr.. Root
said that the permits forbade the holders
from dredging farther in than the shore
line OF low tide The area inland from
the low-ttde mark is under the iurisdie-
ton Of the Interior Department.
