George Washington.

The lapse Of years does not detract in
the least from the significance Of Washing
tons birthday. The nation continues to
celebrate the day with unabated patriotic
zeal ard perhaps even with a constantly
deepening sense of the obligations it owes
to the first President. Washingt on's great
work appears the greater as it is viewed
through the perspective Of the years. He
wrought for posterity as have few leaders
in history His character remains now,
more than a century after his death, as a
guide to those who are following him in au-
thority and influence over the people.
One Of the most satisfactory develop
ments of the public observance of this oc-
casion is the growth of the annual custom
of marking the day with special exercises
in the public schools. Thus each year the
rising generation is given close access to a
multitude of facts and a variety Of views
concerning the first great American leader
In war and peace. The result is surely the
betterment Of the American public spirit.
Such an ideal annually held up before the
impressionable pupils Of the public educa-
tional system must become more and more
a vital force for the uplift of the nation.
Here in the city which bears the name Of
the Father OF the Country Washington's
memory is always held in reverence. Close
to the scenes Of his activity. within easy
reach of his historic home and his last rest
ing place in constant association with the
fruits of his far-sighted genius in the selec-
tion Of q national capital the people Of the
District feel themselves peculiarly identi-
fled with that great career.

ceremony took place. Why then should not
the people of that country rate it at an un-
usual figure? They are as much devoted
to their form of government, and have "A
right to be. as we are to ours. They are
making elaborate preparations in the prem
ises. and all foreign governments are so ad-
vised Naturally therefore all foreign gov
ernments. republican France and the United
States among the number, are to recognize
the occasion as befts it's important and un-
usual character. Invited as all have been
to participate. all will present themselves
iE way to acknowledge their appreciation
of the courtesy. And SO President Roose-
Welt. as President Mckinley would have
done. has simply appointed special commits
sicners to very special state junction
Had we a better American in the country

one today than Theodore Roosevelt?
Neither saw in e special embassy to the
coronation anything derogatory to the dig
nifty of republican institutions.
The only merit that Mr.. Wheeler's dia-
tribe originally possessed was its perfect
symmetry. 1t was all of piece, and care
fully mounted with the epithets that go
with that sort of buncombe. He hit the
prince and the king impartially, and also
everybody connected with the functions
proposed in their honor. He could asso-
ciate nobody but fiunkies with such SER
vices. So that when he weakened on
Tuesday-under the influence probably of
older political heads-and undertook to pick
and choose in bestowing his anathemas he
gave himself and his case pretty completely
away. He is playing the role of ''Old
Homespun' for politics only AS, indeed
are some other people

1t Is a little strange that some members
of the House find themselves able to as
sent to the arrangements for entertaining
Prince Henry and yet are warmly opposed
to the special embassy to represent the
government at the coronation of King Ed
ward. The obligations resting upon us are
very much the same IN both cases.
Prince Henry would not be coming to us
af the relations between the United States
and Germany were not of a friendly char
acter. As a matter OF fact they are most
friendly, And his visit most gracefully en-
phasizes 2their nature. The country has
never before been complimented in the way
the kaiser has chosen in the invitation he
has sent to the Presidents daughter. Every
consideration therefore of friendship and
good taste called for such q reception as
Eas been planned by the authorities in the
case Of his brother. There is nothing un-
american about It. The very best sign OF
Americanism Is. and should be, the hearth
est appreciation OF all courtesies from
Whatsoever quarter received.

The. Canal Question.

1t may be unauthorized but feeling is
growing up. and finding expression here
and there. that Congress will give the coun-
try no canal legislation at this session.
Three months Of the session have passed.
and what seemed a foregone conclusion at
the beginning is now subject of somewhat
bitter controversy in committee of the
Senate. The question, it is true, suddenly
took on new and unexpected phase. The
offer of the Panama project at the price
the American experts had put upon 1t called
al least for careful consideration and some
additional investigation. But allowing for
that. the progress rlade-if real progress is
being made-seemS slow, and the human
countenance in the Senate and out is taking
on the shape Of an Interrogation point. To
dig. or not to dig? That is the question.
Mr.. Morgan has been the subject of some
criticism because of his Jealous advocacy
of the Nicaraguan route. His energy, it IS
charged has been offensive at times. The
Alabama senator needs no defender either
OIL the score of his methods or his man
ners. At all times. and about all ques-
ticns with which he concerns himself, he
Is an earnest and aggressive man. On this
canal question he has spent a good deal
OF thought and study, and as a result has
made up his mind. He is ready to vote
and to give his reasons for the views he
holds. II Congress disappoints the country
in this matter no part Of the blame can be
laid at the door OF Mr.. Morgan.
The thing for those to do who differ with
Mr.. Morgan is not TO crticise him but ag-
gressively TO oppose him. Meet him in the
open and on his own terms. Speak for Pan
anna or for Darien as earnestly as he does
for Nicaragua. Aid him in his efforts to
bring everybody tc the scratch. II this is
done: IL the plain word is spoken by every
body and disposition TO reach a decision
manifested by everybody, We shall have {,
bill without doubt. The danger lies in
protracted committee discussions and the
Spinning of fine distinctions.
Why not an early report of some kind to
the Senate? With the Philippine tariff bill
disposed of, the canal bill is the one Of all
others the country would turn to with the
most interest. The people. as a rule do
not yet understand the full meaning of
the situation as II has been affected by
the Panama offer. and nothing could de-
velop this so thoroughly or SO satisfactorily
as debate in the open Senate. Let us
have that.
Evening star., 1902-02-22
The Bacon Amendment.

Mr.. Bacon If Georgia will ask the Senate
to vote an amendment to the Philippine
tariff bill declaring it TO be the intention
of the United States when ord r shall be
restored III the Philippine Islands to allow
the formation Of ! government for and by
the Philippine people and to guarantee 70
them the same degree OF liberty and indie
penGence that this country has pledged to
the Cuban people.
The Georgia senator is Of course entlrei!
sincere in this matter, and entirely within MS
rights, but the fact remains that no more
dangerous proposition with regard to our
difficulties in the Philippines could have
been presented 1t is certain to increase
those difficulties i'll some measure. and 1t
may increase them a hundred fold. The
Filipino junta at Hong Kong is probably
already advised by cable of this amend
ment. as it also will be OF the vote on
Monday, and whatever that vote may show
will be promptly communicated from there
to the insurgents in the field The fact will
also be noted lor TIE encourageme of the
Filipino fighting men that the proposition
came from one Of the democratic leaders in
the Senate and one who visited the archi-
pelago last year. The effect upon them will
be to renew their heart in the struggle. and
give them the impression of growing
strength In the United States.
1t was only few days ago that Governor
Taft pointed out the dangers of any such
expression by Congress at this time Speak
ing from far larger opportunities for obser-
yation than Mr.. Bacon has enjoyed, he de-
clared that the question Of independence
for the Filipinos was too remote for pres
ent consideration, and that only harm could
come from discussion of 1t now. And yet
we have this reply from one of the anti
imperialist leaders, coming a challenge.
as 1t were, and inviting the consequences
predicted by Governor Taft.
The amendment will Of course be defeated,
but the adverse vote ought to be as heavy
as possible. The Filipinos at Hong Kong,
or in the field in the archipelago. ought
not to be mislcd on this subject of indie
pendence. There is no growing sentiment
In favor of 1t in this country. Mr.. Bacons
own party. taking the country by and large,
Is very much divided to the fu-
ture of the Philippines. 1t is entirely safe
to say. indeed. that If the question were
submitted to popular vote tomorrow. an
overw helming majority of the American
people would record themselves in favor
of continuation of the unconditional
sertion of the authority of this government
In the archipelago. leaving the final word
aid Of such light as the future may ad-
wise and provide. Haste Is often waste,
and it is sometimes shipwreck.
