HER OWN FAULT.

10 CnOSo VINO have IIldue d
study of Russia and her history
the present state of affairs fail
to excite surprise to any great
extent. In fact, as one disaster
after another became a portion
of the czar and his people, the
reading public Of the world at
large settled down and viewed
the matter in most philosophic
manner.
On the outbreass Of hostilities
a little more than year ago,
but few could be. found bold
enough to back the sons of the
Flowery Kingdom to win. Russia
was too powerful, they said. We
are firm believer in the ever
lasting fitness Of things, and
Russia was unfit. Her form of
government was bad to- start
with and those to whom affairs
of state were entrusted have,
during a long term Of years,
become more and more corrupt.
For. years it has been a case of
tsbig fish eat little fsh" right
a1onc the line from the car
down. The high official made
demands upon the one next be-
meath him, and so on, until the
little fish was reached. Every
thing was for God and the car
mostly for the czar, and un-
godly means were resorted to
in order to- accomplish this end.
The individuality of the peo-
pie was srnothered; on account
Of no educational institutions for
the children # the common peo-
pie, illiteracy was on every hand
national pride under such condi-
tions naturally fell into decad-
ence; individual hope and nation
al pride have died and with them
patriotism Having nothing to
live for, what mattered it to the
Russian in battle whether he lived
or died? Win or lose he was
no better off, and he went to war
with the same kind Of fire and
spirit that inspires an OK. {
On every hand almost was cor
ruption, if half we read be true,
and for many long years the ac-
counts Of the policy of the Rus
sian Empire have contained much
of a sameness. Those who had
the brains and courage to rebel
against an unbearable condition
either lost their necks or took up
residence of considerable dura-
tion in Siberia
Little by little have the mills
Of the gods ground in this case,
but finer and finer. And today
the Little Father" Of all Rus
sia is not only confronted by
almost certain defeat at the
hands Of a foreign foe, bit his
. own children are turning against
him. What else could be ex.
pected :? Who is to blame?

NORTHWEST CITIZENS.
Meeting of Association at Tenleytown
Last Night


The Northwest Suburban Citizens Asso-
citation held it's regular meeting last even
ing in Masonic Hail. Tenleytown, with
President Charles c. Lancaster in the chair
Aside from several current matters which
were discussed, the principal topic of the
evening grew out of resolution introduced
by Mr.. Lancaster to the effect that the
legislative partnership now existing be-
tween the people of the United States and
the District of Columbia is unjust and bur-
compact of 1878, the year in which the
partnership was created.
Mr. Lancaster, in support of his resolu-
ton, entered a vehement protest against
the assessments as they are at present
levied upon the people of the District of
Columbia. This unjust taxation grows out
of the act referred to, and he strongly
urged the citizens of the District to have
the same repealed.
The movement for the repeal of the part
nership act was also championed by Ben
jamin w. Holman and A. E. Mclaughlin,
who made brief speeches In favor of its
passage. Mr.. Galen TAFT was opposed to
passing the resolution in the condition in
which it was offered, and after considerable
discussion offered an amendment which
provided that any compact or arrangement
which shall be substituted for the present
partnership shall not provide that the gov
eminent pay less prop ortion of the expenses
of the District than are paid under the
compact of 1878. The resolution as amend
ed was adopted almost unanimously, and
copies of the document will be forwarded
to all the citizens associations of the Dis
trict and the Commissioners.
Better sewerage, street and railroad IA
cilities were made the subject of several
spirited talks. The citizens of Tenleytown
are considerably aggrieved that they have
not been generously dealt with, and have
been aroused to renewed efforts in fight
for necessary improvements.
Addresses were made by Benjamin Hol-
man. Mr.. Mclaughlin, Galen TAFT, Mr..
Finch and others.
