SATURDAY. JULY 80. 1904.
Fortunate Washington.

If the citizens of Washington cannot
vote for President, they at least have
the satisfaction of knowing that they
are commercially affected by the cleo
ton Of a President less than any
other municipality in the land.
The Washington business man can
read with complacency news from
other sections Of slack business on
account Of the campaign, realizing
that whatever others may have to
contend against while the policy of
the country for the coming four years
is still undetermined, his business
viii run along just as smoothly from
now to November as it will from No
vember TO 1908, when once more the
country as a whole will suffer from
the campaign spasm.
Washington is the storm center Of
American political life, but, like all
storm centers, Washington itself is
calm. This is strictly a governmental
city. It's manufactures are very few
Most of its citizens enjoy a steady in
come, which does not vary with the
commercial ups and downs of supply
and demand. Consequently business
in Washington, instead Of being rep
resented by rises above the normal
and falls far below it, progresses in q
straight line throughout the entire
year
Probably most Washingtonians fail
&c appreciate their business comfort
just as they fail to appreciate their
material comfort. They are so accus-
toned TO both that their attention is
not attracted TO either until some
thing unpleasant jars the customary
pleasantness Of their ways.
Thus it is quite the fashion to kick
against the Washington climate Yet
it is a question if there is a city IN
the country where a person of mod
est means can pass a more comforta-
bic summer than he can right here in
Washington or in its vicinity.
II may be ever so hot downtown,
but let the perspiring Individual get
on a car and ride to the suburbs
north, south, east, or west, where
hills lift him above the low level of
the Potomac valley, and almost in
variably he will find a cool breeze
blowing from some quarter. The
times he will not during the entire
heated term he can count on the fin
gers of his two hands.
Even in the city itself the resident
of Washington is much better of
than the resident of any other city in
the country. The streets are wide
and airy, and breathing places for the
multitude are abundant In fact, no
true WashingtOnian ever goes away
TO escape the heat. He takes his va
cation because he wants a change
wants to see new faces. visit new
scenes, enjoy new recreatons.

Certainly if even God will not take

tirely to a state. l will submit it and
freely give it to God the Almighty;

throw away my liberty by yielding
to laws made by Il state in matters for

Such being the case consider for Il

The state is to govern by Just laws:
the laws are enforced by punishments,

force adapted for grown-up men. or
for children? ! should think for
"rown-up men. What are forces which
come into account in the education of
children: Parental love and solicitude,
the benign influence of religion. Can
the state furnish these: Ridiculous
To say so. If then the state is not
equipped for tho education of children,
why should it undertake TO educate

They demand as their right with no

No further developments have been
discovered in the Teachout murder
mystery and it appears as though the
stranger of the young girl will never
be apprehended. The police still
cling to their belief that Miss Teach
out committed suicide, although no
motive for such a course has been
discovered. Others declared that there
is no question but that the girl was.
murdered, but they neither have been
able to show motive and the case
promises to pass down as one of the
unsolved mysteries of Minneapolis.
In spite of the most rigorous cross
questioning, the members of the
Teachout family have told nothing
other than the statements they made
at the inquest.
