HAVE NO REASON FOR
GRATITUDE TO CONGRESS
Northwest Citizens Voted Down
Resolution of Thanks.

Washington has small reason TO be
grateful for what Congress mas recently
/ done for it, if the views Of the North
west Suburban Citizens Association on
The subject are accepted as true
A resolution of thanks to the solons
on Capitol Hill, prepared with elaborate
care by c. c Lancaster, president Of the
association, was rejected by almost d
unanimous vote, after vehement oppo-
sition in speeches by several members
This resolution was couched in COM
Plimentary terms and bristled with sta
tistics showing the sums of money ap-
propriated and the extent OF improve
ment IN the District
It was presented to the association in
a strong speech, and defended by a
stronger one when the sense of the
meeting had been expressed. but the
protector of the motion stood almost
alone when the vote was taken The
chief objection TO the resolution was
tfat Congress has done little for the i'm
pToyement Of suburban streets.
B. II. Warner. Judge c. S. Bundy. Col.
E. B. Townsend. and Louis P Shoe
maker were present and addressed the
meeting MIR Warner spoke upon the
needs OF the District, one OF which was
the proper construction of county roads.
He compared Washington with Boston.
and showed that the Capital City is far
behind in the matter OF suburban streets.
Mr.. Warner thought the citizens asso-
Citations in the outlying districts should
pull earnestly together fer the better
ment of the county roads.
Andrew Burga called attention TO the
underbrush and reeds growing rank
along these thoroughfares Another
member said in winter children could
not go over the impossible roads to
school. Mr. Shoemaker said Congress
had appropriated many thousands of
dollars in their Improvement. and he
supposed the money had been properly
spent but the roads were no better than
they were forty years ago
Judge Bundy spoke OF the general i'm
proyement OF Washington, and thought
the growth Of the city as whole should
be matter OF pride TO its people
4 resoluti&a proposed by Mr. Shoe
maker approving the formation OF
central citizens association was adopt
ed. The association voted a reeommen-
daJion of William T. Belt as successor
to MT Dutton as Chief Engineer Of the
Fire Department.

WOULD HAVE PRESIDENT
SUSPEND THE INQUIRY
Politicians Fear Result 0
Postoffice Scandal.

| The Philadelphia Public Ledger
! prints this morning a resume OF the cur
rent investigation in the Postoffice De-
! partment from the pen of John NJ. Car
son and under the caption politicians
Scared over Postal Scandal-In1uentia
/ Pressure Brought TO Bear Upon the
President 10 have The Inquiry stopped -
The article is in part as follows:
The Importance of the investigation
into the Postofice Department scandals,
and the fear which is entertained OF the
expected revelations, are shown by the
efforts which have been made 10 have it
called off. All kinds of pressure were
brought TO bear upon the President be-
fore he went away to have the inyestiga-
ton stopped. It was represented 10 him
that the future of the Republican party
was involved. and the official head Of
Assistan Postmaster General Wynne was
demanded. The President refused TO be
impressed and the investigation went on
Perry 5. Heath. formerly First AS
sistant Postmaster General. came to
Washington from Utah, where he is con
ducting newspaper, to stop the in
vestigation. and did the best he could
to that end without avail Heath is sec
retary of the Republican national COM
mittee- 1t is reported that James S.
Clarkson, surveyor of the port of New
York. also laboTed to the same end Mr.
Clarkson is Postmaster General Payne's
Tight-hand man in all his political busi-
ness. and is his chief lieutenant in the
organization of the campaign for dele
gates TO the next national convention.
Since the investigation began the Off
Gals of the Postoftice Department have
been fairly deIuged with letters from
postmasters in different parts OF the
country, telling Of the extent to which
their Offices had been crowded with sup
plies. All kinds of things have been
showered With prodigal Iiberality upon
these postofIlees. and the postmasters
were unable to understand the reason
why their Offices should be so Iavishiy
equipped. All this information has beer
turned over TO Fourth Assistant Post
master General Bristow for aid in ais
investigation, and he is making
searching examination of the way in
which supplies and equipment for he
department were purchased -

PRESIDENT SEES
GOOD IN TRUSTS
BIDS PEOPLE BE CONFIDENT.

Not only is the legislation Ton
the subject of trustsl recently en-
acted effective, bu, in my judgment
1t was impracticable 10 attempt
more Nothing OF value is to be ex-
pected from ceaseless agitation for
radical and extreme legislation. The
people may wisely and with conf
dence await the results which are
Teasons bly, TO be expected from the
impartial enforcement of the laws
which have receftly been placed
upon the statute books.
Legislation OF a general and in
discriminate character would be sure
10 fail. either because Il would in
volye all interests in a common ruin
OF because it would not really reach
any evil. We have endeavored TO
provide a discriminating adoption OF
the remedy to the real mischief"
