courts have held that the District cannot
enforce the snow and ice law because the
title to the sidewalks lies in the United
States. The inevitable conclusion from this
ruling Is that If the sidewalks are fouled
the municipality must clean them. There
would seem to be no better use for the APP
preparations for the care of streets than in
the remedying of just such evils as that
which exists in lexington. which has been
described In detail in order to emphasize
the point now at issue. II there are no
funds, the chain gang is assuredly available
At any rate, 1T Is hardly the course of good
government to throw back upon the indi-
vidual citizens the burden of keeping the
governments sidewalks in decent condition.
This spectacle surely suggests the i'm
perative need either of new statute eff
fectually putting on adjacent property
owners the responsibility for preventing
sidewalk fouling from materials which
come from their premises alone. or of an
administrative system which will do the
municipalities work.
The clean it yourself policy which the
Commissioners have adopted Is danger
ously susceptible of extension to a degree
which will soon destroy the prestige OF
Washington as the best governed city in
the world

PearY and His Journex

Good for those New York capitalists who
came forward and subscribed the money
necessary to fitting out Lieun Peary for
his next arctic venturei Money is so album
dant for educational purposes, for foreign
missions. for experiments Of one kind or
another. why not few thousands toward
solving the great mystery of the north?
We may be told that 1t is so much money
wasted. Some people go so far as to de-
clare that such trips should not only be
discouraged. but. when possible, prevented.
They are of opinion that the world has
outgrown its interest In that subject, and
that the few men who still cherish the fad
should not be permitted to risk their lives
on such a quest.
This is a mistaken view The world stu
reads and thinks about the north POLE and
the man who In search of II registers far
thest north is still hero. His report Is
the most salable document of the day. Ii
he knows how 20 tell his story he achieves
the success that Macaulay aimed at and
achieved with his history, and forces peo-
pie. even young ladies, to turn from the
latest popular novel and give him a hear
ing.
IT may be that Lieut.. Peary will
again fail. 1t may be that the pole will
never be reached until the secret of aerial
navigation has been solved. Some of the
reasoning On this point is very ingenious

Ryan and the Senate.

A fairly typical midsummer yarn is that
ascribing to Thomas F. Ryan of New York
an ambition to succeed Major Daniel OF
Virginia in the United States Senate. Mr..
Ryan In the past few years has dabbled IN
politics little. and has voting residence
In the Old Dominion, but far more than
that would be necessary to accomplish the
overthrow of SO popular leader as the
senior Virginia senator. Major Daniel has
been in office long time. possesses the
gifts and characteristics that please his peo-
pie, and usually obtains reelection without
contest. One would suppose that Mr..
Ryan must have his hands full with his
New York business affairs, and particularly
since assuming his responsibilities in the
Equitable Life Assurance Company's COM
plications. A campaign for United States
senatorship is too big a thing to be played
as merely a side line.

The High School Question.

1t Is reassuring to all who are interested
in the high school situation that there Is a
prospect that a special meeting of the
the purpose of disposing of this matter Such
a course Is decidedly demanded by the pub
lie sentiment which has been aroused by
the proposition to exchange the principals
of the Eastern and Central schools. AS the
case stands on the record the transfer of
Principal Swartzell has been resolved by
the board. leaving for the first Septem-
Der meeting the decision as to his destina-
ton. But meanwhile there is IL general I'M
derstanding that the boards present inclin-
alton is to effect an exchange between him
and Principal Wilson.
The public protests against such an ex-
change are based not alone upon the per-
sonalities involved or the popularity of Mr..
Wilson at the Central. There is a distinct
feeling throughout the community that the
move would be preJudicial to the best inter
ests of the school system. that 1t would
weaken the stand taken by the board on the
subject of discipline. and possibly throw
more than one of the higher schools OF the
city into deplorable confusion. For that
reason II is highly important that the rec
ord be cleared of any possibility of mistake
well in advance of the opening of the
anxiety be allayed and the reopening of
the schools be saved from unwholesome
friction and uncertainty.

Opening the Statehood Ball.

The resolutions adopted at Oklahoma City
yesterday recite nothing that is new, but
much that is interesting and worthy of at
tention. Surely there is material for a new
state out there. People in such numbers
and with such resources should be permit
ted to enjoy full fellowship in American OPP
portunities. They know what they want.
and ask for 1t In terms of confidence and
self-respect And their wishes should be
gratified.
Unfortunately, however, the situation re-
mains about as 1t was last winter The peO-
pie of Oklahoma and of Indian Territory are
somewhat at the mercy of a political ma
neuver. Their case stands bracketed by the
politicians with the case OF Arizona and
New Mexico 1t is not permitted to stand
on its own merits. The reply to their ap-
peal Is. Yes. you are all right and deserve
statehood, but we must at the same time
settle with Arizona and New Mexico. We
must clean up all the territories at once"
And here is the rub. Arizona and New
Mexico object to being fused. Each aspires
to statehood on its own account, But neither.

The Future War Footing.

There will be no decrease in the military or
naval expenditures of any of the great ma
tons in the near future. Rather may we
expect an increase. Present figures are
high. but the situation is grave. and states
men. soldiers and sailors are studying 1t
with care and anxiety.
1t is easy to recall what took place imme-
diately after the close of the Franco-German
war great power had suddenly been
humDbed. The victor had suddenly assumed
tremendous proportions. A new calculation
all round took place. France paid her bill,
heavy as it was. and began at once to get
into condition again. Germany saw the play.
and began at once the construction of a
larger fighting machine than ever. Other
powers Overhauled their establishments, SO
as not to be caught mapping. Europe be-
came what was called an armed camp. has
remained so, and has had but one war since.
Suddenly another great power has been
humbled. and the victor has assumed great
proportions. Russia's fall is heavier even
than was that of France. Japan is the new
Germany on the scene, and while her terms
are not likely to be as hard as were those
of Germany thirty years ago. they will
necessarily leave Russia in a bitter frame
of mind. Russia, even II her government
trouble. will begin at once the work of re-
Mobilization. and this time will be likely to
get the worth of her money. Japan. of
course. will not be behndhand. Having
demonstrated in this war the inestimable
value of preparedness, she viii remain pre-
pared. and on a scale made necessary by
the programs of the other powers, and espe-
cially that of Russia.
Lord Roberts. with the keen perceptions
of an accomplished soldier, sees the situa-
ton and wants his government to meet It,.
The kaiser. we may be sure. sees 1t. and
Germany under his direction will meet It.
France will be all the more alert for the
disappointment she has experienced In her
ally. The big ornaments are going to be
made bigger. 1t may not be pleasing pros
pect to the peace societies. but 1t Is one
that the rulers of the world are certain not
to underyaIue

Government Investigations.

Now that the departmental Investigation
topic is rife. a few points of difference be-
tween the objects and methods of such In
Iuiries should be carefully noted by the
officials. There are. broadly. three kinds OF
inqusition into public-service affairs pre-
lImnary general and specific. The inves-
tigation recently conducted by the secret
service agents into the cotton leak scan
dial was. or should have been. of the pre-
limnary class. Such an inquiry is properly
secret. 1t corresponds to the work OF the
grand jury. which ascertains whether there

ment of definite case by officials, and re-
quiring the examination and cross-examin-
alton of witnesses should always be In the
open.

suit has been unfortunate in two respects.
In the first place it Is charged that lnjus-
tice was done to a New York broker whose
name, IL appears was not brought before
the Investigators. who had no opportunity
at defense and who now contends that he
has been deprived of his rights. In the
second place. there is every prospect that
the first inquiry. which the department au-
thorities apparently regarded final and
sufficient. must be followed by one OF
broader scope.
AS to whether this second investigation
should be open or secret much depends
upon the character of the testimony, the
nature OF the charges or suspicious. and
the field to be covered. In view of the pub
lie interest and the magnitude of the SUBJ
Ject, 1t would be the part of wise admins

The printing office inquiry is on a distinct
footing as an examination of certain spe-
citic charges affecting a particular trans
action. 1t is impossible to see wherein the
interests of justice are conserved by Sc
crecy. and quite easy to discern the posi-
bility of failure of justice through the
closing of the doors. The government, in

Be that as 1t may, men meanwhile will

has proved alluring to the venturous. and
it will continue to fascinate them for many
more years. Explorations elsewhere have
been pushed to the extreme. until we now
have the metes and bounds of the little

mined. But what is there away up in that
land of Ice and snow which so arouses our
curiosity. and leads us to sacrifice comfort
and risk life in the hope of discovery?

Clean the SideWalksI

striking instance of the need of stronger
laws or better administration in relation TO
the care of the sidewalks of this city is az
forded by the answer OF the Commits
sioners to a petition they received from the
citizens OF lexington. For several years a
serious nuisance has existed in that sec
ton. A stretch of sidewalk about half a
block in length has been subject to contin-
uous overfiows of mud from the high bank
adjacent. long time ago the residents
complained and the owner of the vacant
premises which furnishes the mud. a corpo-
ration doing business in Washington. was
required by the Commissioners to remedy the
evil ~ heavy wooden curb was installed.
This served to check the mud flow for a short
time. but eventually the soil was washed
over the curb TO the walk. Then at rare in
.tervals Complaints were needed and work
men were sent to clean the walk. which
they did by scraping OF the mud and fling

ton Is particularly bad because the side
walk users are forced TO go into the street,
which at this point is occupied by car
tracks. with two dangerous curves. so that
the street traffic is exceptionally hazardous
In consequence of the sidewalk nuisance.
After suffering for a long time in silence.
the citizens have recently renewed their
complaint. and are now informed by the
Commissioners that the District laborers
cannot be used to remedy the evil and the
citizens must clean the walk themselves.

Pistol Toting.
From the Chicago Chronicle.

FROM the Chicago CEronicie.
That the concealed pistol Is strictly an
Americansm is the conclusion of a Georgia
Judge who has devoted some study to the
subject There is ground for the assertion.
Not even in the countries which we are &C
customed to regard as semi-barbarous is
there anything like the extent of pistol
toting under cover of the coattails that we
have in this republic. In many lands pis-
tolls are carried openly and among the
Latins the knife Is frequently carried and
used. but in this blessed land of freedom
alone do a great proportion of men go
about with six-shooters hidden. but ready
for action. The circumstance is hardly
fiattering to national self-esteem.
