The G. A. r.. Encampment.
The following is from the indianapolis
Journal:

The following is from the indianapolis
Journal:
THE city OF Washington asked for the
national encampment Of the Grand Army
upon the assumption that Congress would
come in and foot the most of the bills as
IL did ten years ago. 1t is now reported
that Congress will not do this and that the
city may not be able to raise the money.
Cities have discovered that there is no
profit in entertaining the veterans at the
expense which some of them have incurred
in recent years. So it may come about that
the next national encampment will not be
held in Washington
The city Of Washington has not vet for
mally asked for the national encampment,
but the matter of an invitation, coupled
with the required financial guarantees, is
now under consideration by the Commits
sioners and the business men of the city
who will meet the expenses incident to
such gathering. Washington's invitation,
whenever presented, could not be based
upon the assumption that Congress would
come in and foot most of the bills as 1t
did ten years ago." For Congress, ie, the
national government, did not ten years ago
appropriate dollar Of the nations money
to meet the expenses of the encampment
In violation Of the half-and-half agreement
of the organic act Congress as the Dis
trict's local legislature did lay hands on
and apply to encampment purposes $9OO 600
of the money collected from the local tax
payers which under the law could only be
expended when duplicated by the United
States. Congress was thus benevolent in the
disbursement Of the local taxpayers money
in manner which involved a breach of
trust. In addition to this 10000 which
Congress compelled the community to take
from its tax money and which represented
a loss to the city of s1SO.OOO since it was
not duplicated by the national government
as the law required. the citizens of the
District raised $4,000 by voluntary sub
scriptions. 1t is true that Congress will
not this year foot the most of the bills
as 1t did ten years ago." Congress will
never repeat that performance on any oe-
casion whatsoever, II the wishes and well
fare of the people OF the District receive
consideration The expenses of all future
conventions, encampments and other SINH
lar gatherings, 50 far as they properly fall
upon the local community, will be met b.
voluntary subscriptions. largely derived
from the railroads. street railways, hotels
and boarding houses and some other lines
Of business which directly profit from such
assemblages.

Today's snow is the first real sign Of winter
that Washington has experienced this sea-
son, barring an occasional nipplng of the
ears and noses with frosty air. 1t Is no
more welcome, however, because it is be-
lated. Snow here is not an unmitigated
JOY. however it may delight the juvenile
heart. 1t interferes with outdoor work and
deprives hundreds Of employment, compen-
sating for this only partially through the
chance 1t affords to some to earn a little
money by cleaning sidewalks. IT soon turns
to slush and causes much discomfort and
often much sickness. Washington could
very easily worry along throughout the
winter without seeing a single flake of the
beautiful"

District Civil Service.

The COMMISSIONER bill for the inclusion
of the District government within the civil
service system should receive prompt con-
sideration by Congress. For years this
matter has been discussed, successive
boards Of Commissioners asking for the
legislation necessary to permit the extern
sion of the merit system to the local offices.
President Cleveland received an opinion
from his attorney general mat the civil
service law did not permit the inclusion Of
the District offices without special legisla-
ton. Since then Congress has been be-
sought on more than one occasion in the
course of presidential messages to supply
the deficiency, and in his message Of De-
cember President Roosevelt specifically
pointed out the Districts need In this re-
spect.
There is every reason why the District
offices should be placed upon civil service
basis and no valid reason why they should
not. AS the Commissioners note In their let
ter transmitting the bill to Congress, there
have been instances in the past where the
absence Of any merit-system barriers save
such as have been devised by the Commits
sioners themselves. has worked against the
local public interests. The Commissioners
are under a constant pressure to appoint to
form public service. and their relations
with Congress are SO close that they can
not but yield at times to this influence.
The civil service principle has obtained a
firm hold in some other cities, although
much remains to be done in the line of
municipal application. washington's form
of local government would then soon ac-
quire a special significance in the minds Of
those who study the course of municipal
development In America With non-par-
tisan board of Commissioners, serving q
non-poiitical community. an ideal applica-
tion of the merit principle could be here
effected to demonstrate beyond question the
fact that In the public service, as In busi-
ness, capacity is the best and safest test
of the fitness of a man to work at any task
and that the service is raised in effective
ness for the benefit of the employer,
whether public or private, in proportion as
the selection of subordinates is based upon
that factor alone

from this picture as striklngly as day does

from this picture as strikingly as day does
from night -
Mr. Bonsal proceeds by describing one Of
these camps. which was established by a
Major Smith, who found that the insurgents
In an island over which he had command
were being fed by non-combatants profess
ing friendship for the Americans. Accord
iEgly Major Smith ordered the Inhabitants
into the coast towns where there were
garrisons, and this was the end:
in ten weeks the desired result was
achieved-aIl the Insurgents threw up the
sponge and surrendered, and Immediately
the concentration camps were dissolved.
Peace returned and not a hostile shot has
been fired on the island since. The plan
was a triumph of common sense and OF
true humanity.
ITO compare such policy as this tot that
of Weyler is an absurdity. The combatants
suffered as they should, only In this excep-
tional instance 1t was the Tagal warriors
who suffered and not the Americans, and
the non-combatants merely suffered some
temporary Inconvenience.
The sanitary reports from these camps,
signed by both the native and army ply
sicians, show that owing to the sanitary
rules which are enforced the health of the
prisoners is better and the mortality so per
cent less than it is on the average. when
they are living In their own homes.
1T is just as absurd to call Major Smith
the american Weyler as TO compare any
judge who may send prisoner to model
jail with Mana Sahib. who put his prison.
ers in the black hole OF Calcutta.
In this same letter, 1t Is but fair to state,
Mr.. Bonsal takes an extremely gloomy
view of the Philippine question. He de-
clares that the Filipinos are bitterly op-
posed to American occupation, and that, in
his Judgment, it will require large army
for a very long time to preserve even the
appearance of peace. He doubts If the
game is worth so expensive a candle.
Upon the questions, however, of the value
of the archipelago as American territory,
and the size of the force necessary to po-
authority he does In the matter of the
concentration camps. He Is neither a
statesman, nor a soldier. Judge Taft diff
fers with him as to the advisability of
holding on, and General Chaffee as to the
difficulty of keeping order once the Filipi-
come to stay. But as one of the men who
saw the horrors of Wey1erism in Cuba, Mr..
Bonsal speaks with knowledge on the other
point. and dispels the ISLANDERS that were
being heaped on the American command
ers in the Philippines. We all understand
at least until the Aguinaido Aid Society In
the United States ceases it's troubling; but
nobody would want to stay If Weylerism
or anything approaching 1t. were neces-
sary to success
