4 promising little immigration 10 Vir-

WHY Americans s1cesed

one Of the reasons why thiz country has
cared its way to the front from among
the world powers commercially, indus
trially and financially il found in the
story of the Euglishman who was being
conducted through a large manuiactur-
ing plant. At one stage Of the journey
he was very much surprised and shocked
to see a young man 10 greasy overhaui7
crawl out from under piece OF machine
~ to say something to the proprietor
Noting the expression Of his guest the
owner casually remarked: That's my
son" \ little farther on he pointer out
another grimy workman as his nephew
In this country" said he, every man
must be useful or lose the respect OF his
friends" The little sermon, all uneon-
sciously preached, tells a great truth In
the United States, as in no other country
on the globe, the sons OF rich men are
making themselves useful citizens.

the existence Of the organizations

rights and the existence Of the organizations
similar to its own.
Good faith among nations is perhaps rare
enough to warrant the smaller republics in
feeling wary Of larger ones. But there is
no instance OF the United States taking adj
vantage of the weakness of any OF the
South or Central American states. and on
the contrary many instances Of its saving
them from their enemies and preventing
their collapse. 1t has never interfered with
their domestic quarrels save to the extent
of protecting it's own rights. This 1t is now
doing In the isthmian region, in a manner
entirely conformable to the spirit of the
existing treaty with Colombia. The mere
fact that this government desires to proceed
with the execution OF a great work which
will benefit the smaller republics as well
as the rest of the world is no reasonable
cause for a revival of the silly suspicious
OF it's integrity in the premises. 1t
may prove difficult to demonstrate this
truth to the satisfaction of the smaller gov
ernments. But they will be sadly lacking
In good sense and craftsmanship II they

mate object the strengthening of all the

The Speakership as a Spur.

The reelection of Mr.. Thayer of Massa-
chusetts is urged on the ground that If the
democrats control the next House he will
probably be the Speaker. In Mississippi
last summer John 8. Williams won a re-
nomination partly on the strength Of the
prediction by his friends that the speaker
ship of the House was coming his way It
was said of him that he was now SO pop
ular and influential in the House 1t was but
a question of his remaining there to reap
the highest honor in that body as soon as
his party should again control 1t. The con-
stituents of Mr.. Richardson of Tennessee
are equally well assured that his chances to
be Speaker are very f1attering. Now the
minority leader of the House, he is re-
garded by his friends as logically and by
merit in line for promotion when the turn
of the wheel gives the House to his party.
And Mr.. Griggs is encouraged to his best
endeavors as chairman of the democratic
congressional committee by the suggestion
that democratic success next week should
be celebrated by his election to the speaker
ship.
Turning to the other side we find Mr..
Cannon's campaign for reelection sup
ported by the suggestion of his name In
connection with the speakership. Mr.. Dali
Ltli VI ISliiSyiNdllid Inc" iSc HdS q DooLii.
Mr.. Payne of New York should be. his
friends declare, promoted from the chair
manshp of ways and means to the highest
Office in the gift Of the House, while the
friends of Mr.. Grosvenor of Ohio in
him, not only most deserving man, but
the material for an ideal presiding officer.
Mr.. Hemenway of Indiana lives in a close
district and Is hard pressed. and his con-
stituents are told that in stubbornly con-
tested fight for the speakership between
the leading candidates he would very likely
be the compromise selection.
This method of dealing in futures is in
teresting, and now and then 1t adds to the
gayety of campaign. 1t is especially serv-
iceable where there is complaint of
apathy. A constituency will exert itself
under such a spur when nothing else will
arouse it. The office of Speaker of the
House is second in Importance only to the
presidency. 1t represents great power as
we'll as dignity and member of Congress
who has come to figure so prominently in
affairs as to be considered seriously as
worthy of the office and In line for 1t has
claims upon attention. Many are men
toned although but one can be chosen, but
all who are mentioned benefit in a measure
from the speculation that connects their
names and achievements with a reward so
very great.

A Touch of Winter.

Jack Frost has beaten King Coal in get
ting to Washington. The warm weather
which has prevailed throughout the au-
tumu has lulled the people into fancied
security despite the long delay In getting
the strike settled and the mines in opera
ton. There was perhaps little less rigid
ity of fuel economy after the arbitration
commission was named and the resumption
of mining was assured. But there was no
immediate inflow of coal and indeed there
have even vet been no additions to. the
local stock. The mines are not working
at full capacity and some of them may
even be held out of full service for several
weeks bv the bad condition of the ma
chinery and the accommodations of water
In few Instances there is friction between
the operators and the workers caused by
the retention of non-union men. Such coal
as is being mined is sent northward, where
IL Is more sorely needed. Last night, how
ever. Washington felt a genuine touch of
winter. The temperature had dropped de-
Cidedly yesterday from the day before and
continued during the evening on its DOWN
ward course until at o'clock this morn
ing II reached 81 degrees, the lowest point
of the season and one degree under the
freezing point. A heavy frost covered the
ground and gave the city a decidedly win
try appearance. Last evening fires were
necessary indoors to prevent actual dis
comfort and those who have no coal were
given a fun chance to test their various
substitutes for anthracite heating. A few
more DAYS like Yesterday and today and
nights like last night will cause the fuel
problem to become locally acute and will
result in determined demand that Wash
ngton be no longer regarded by the coal
handlers as a southern city requiring only
minimum of fuel Not even the possess
Sion OF a large charity fund for the pur-
chase of fuel for the poor will prevent suf-
fering If the local stock is not soon replen-
ished
