Senator Patterson's Energy.

Senator Patterson of Colorado undoubt-

Senator. He takes an active part In the
debate on every bill that is important
enough to deserve or receive discussion.
He makes frequent speeches. and in ad-
di,ion Jumps into every running fire OF
debate that occurs. In the first discus
sion of the Philippine question, when the
revenue bill was up, he talked as much
as any other Senator, and already during
tho zresent controversy he has made
himself conspicuous by his activity. II
is understood that he has a set speech
prepared for early delivery.
Mr.. Patterson is a member OF the Phil
ippipes Committee. but he is not on the
Committee on Relations with Cuba. He
has attended some of the meetings of the
latter committee. however, somewhat con-
,rary TO the usual custom, and is evi-

II is said that the reputation as law

UNDER THE CAPITOL DOME.
Representative Gambler as an Evangelist

Representative Gambler of Mississippi is
interest in religious matters, and his ser
vices are often In demand in his district
and in Washington. During the summer
months, at home. for number OF years,
he has often held revival meetings out in
the country, where it is difficult to secure
the services of men of ability and note.
In one meeting which he held there were
sufficient converts to organize themselves
into church. which they promptly did
and called it Gamblers Chapel" in honor
Of the Representative. At another place
the people secured a large tent and
stretched it in an old field, and under its
folds he conducted a great meeting, and
after the meeting closed the people
combined and built substantial
structure. and it is called "Candler's
Tabernacle" These are but instances
among many that could be mentioned.
1t did not take church people here long
worker. and he has spoken at q number
OF places in Washington with marked ef-
feet for good. All of this service he does
without money or price. This is a new
departure for n Congressman, and hence
has attracted considerable comment. Mr.
Gambler is full OF vim and energy and
is man of recognized ability, and has
taken high rank during this his first
term. No more faithful Representative
sits in the halls of Congress.

Mr.. Salmon Longed for Tender Eulogy.

A somewhat singular incident. in con-

Curls and Greatness.

A man who amuses himself with making
theories out of statistics has come TO the
conclusion that there is some sort of re-
lation between straight hair and great
ness. At any rate, he asserts that no
great man has had curly hair, and AYERS
that he has examined over thousand por-
traits before coming to this conclusion.
II this be true. the ambitious person born
with curly hair may as well close his ca
recr before he begins 1t.
1t may be doubted, however, whether his
rule holds absolutely. 1t is true that at
certain periods OF the worlds history
curls were fashionable, and those whose
hair was naturally straight had recourse
to the barber to remedy natures neglect.
There was also time when everybody
wore curled wigs. But even so, there
are. especially in the domain of literature.
some moderately famous persons whose
hair was not straight.
The pictures of Lord Byron, for ex-
ample, show hair which certainly curls
after a fashion. And what about Alex
ander Dumas. author OF THE Count of
Monte Cristo?" What about the various
famous actors of the world, some of whom
certainly had naturally curling locks?
The fact is that this rule. like a good
many others of its kind comes from a
misinterprcted fsct. Among people Of Eu
ropean descent curly hair is not common.
The hair may have = distinct wave in 1t.
which with a little coaxing will turn into
curl, but the person who is really curly
haired is not usual The natural conse-
quence of this is that such persons do not
appear in the company of the worlds
great men with any astonishing frequency.
There IS probably the same proportion of
them as in the section OF humanity which
is not great, and that is all.

soever over such district mot exceed

sion of particular States and the ac-

made the District OF Columbia the Ma

ought to maintain and develop and
beautify It's Capital. The people who
happen to live in the Capital, in this
view. ought to pay per capita as much
on this account as the people living
outside, and no more.
The magnificent scale on which the
Capital City was laid out, with such
streets, avenues, and parks as were
not dreamed of for any other American
city; the fact that the title of all the
streets, avenues, and parks was taken
by the United States. and the fact that
the population of the District was and

system of expenditures, would suggest
the inference that the National Capital

Beef Situation Exaggerated.

1.-The Eastern press has rather over
done Its attacks upon the alleged beer
combine" said Mr.. James L. Taylor, OF
St. Louis. at the Raleigh.
II am somewhat familiar with the beer
question. and can say that the news
papers Of this section, particularly the
New York press, have exaggerated the
situation. The big packing houses may
work together to some extent, but that
there is an iron-clad agreement between
them is preposterous. Very often they
are in fierce competition. as was the case
in Chicago a few weeks ago, when tiie
retail price OF beef was lower than the
cost of the live animal
If this investigation is to be opened
UP let 1t be pressed all along the line.
There is no need TO single out one in
dustry. The high price of beef is due on
natural and logical grounds to the scar
city of corn, occasioned by the failure
OF that crop last year in Missouri. Kan
sas. Nebraska. Iowa, and Illinois.

Capital. It's share is two-fold: First,
to pay half of all strictly District ex-
penses. and, second, to pay all strictly
national expenses. For example, 1t
gets the protection of the District Fire
Department, and therefore 1t ought to
pay half of its expenses. On the other
hand a national building or national
park ought to be paid for exclusively
by the National Government, here as
elsewhere.
1t is easy to distinguish between Dis
trict expenditures and national expendi-
lures. The District ought to bear Its
full share Of the former, and the Ma
tionai Government should assume the
whole of the latter. The District would
have no financial troubles, and there
could be no complaint about unjust tax
alton, II Congress would steadily carry
out this policy, which in its main out
lines appears to be approved by it. 1t
is the policy which the intelligent peo-
lie OF the country approve. They are
proud of their National Capital, and
they want the national money spent
freely upon it. Not one word of ad-
verse criticism has ever come from them
for the men in Congress who made the
building for the Library of Congress the
most beautiful of its kind in the world.
A very plain and simple building would
have answered the practical purpose.
but the humblest American who comes
here rejoices that he is a stockholder
in that esthetic palace of the arts. Poor
and rich alike rejoice in every i'm
provement and establishment of the
National Capital, because it is the EN-
bodiment of the greatness and beauty
of the Republic.
The Washington times., 1902-05-07

have assumed that responsibility. But
1t was so poor that it had to take at
first just the opposite position. 1t was
a mendicant. 1t begged of the nine
teen original proprietors over 20 per
cent of the area of Washington. 1t pro-
cured from the sale of part of this land
about two millions of dollars. With this
money and smaller amounts secured
from the States OF Maryland and Vir-
ginia, 1t built the White House, the
ings which were ready for the Nation
al Government when IL removed here
in 1900, and then. and later, improved
the streets and approaches around these
buildings. Then. for seventy-eight
years 1t left practically the whole bur-
den OF the maintenance and develop
ment of the National Capital to the
people living here. except that after
1900 it gradually spent more and more
national money on national buildings
and grounds.
The residents OF the District OF Co
lumbia first gave the National Govern
ment 20 per cent of the area of Wash
ington. and the first set of national
buildings, and then, for seventy eight
years, furnished the National Govern
ment with all municipal service. and
with the Improvement of streets and
avenues away from the national build
ings.

great debt which the National Govern
trict for the period prior to 1878 must
be included. Since 1878 the National
Government has generally borne its
share of the obligations Of the National

LOVE AND HISTORY,

Roses shed their petals
Countless Junes ago.
And those dead Decembers
Brought their snow.
Weary eyes were covered
With their patient lids,
BY the yet unbuilded
Pyramids.
Life and Death, like sweethearts.
Hand in hand,
Then, as now, stole over
Sea and land.
Lovers kissed and 1uarreled,
Eyes were moist and blue.
In the indian meadows
Moses knew.
Cheeks were wet with weeping,
Brows were hot with fire.
Ere the hand OF Homer
Swept the Tyre.
And this masquc of midnight,
And the moons white face,
Looked OF Nile and Jordan,
Thebes and Thrace.
Must the mint be new. dear,
Ii the coin is gold?
Though youth dies, Love never
Wakes old.
History means this morning,
Greece is here and now;
Let us drain Times beaker--
and thou!
Press thy lips to mine, dear,
Thus-and thus and thus:
Space and tisle shall rerish,
Slain by us.
All the lands of wonder
Years OF pain and bliss.
We will taste together
In that kiss!
