A Field for Works.

Half dozen measures for the good
of the District of Columbia are now
pending at the District building. Re-
ports upon them are being prepared
by the various chiefs of division,
whose responsibilities they affect
most intimately and the Board of
Commissioners is waiting, theoretic-
ally at least, for their Endorsements
before the bills are forwarded to
Congress with strong recommended
tions in favor of their enactment into
law.
In their substance these bills are
already familiar TO the, citizens OF
the District. :
One of them grants the Commits
sioners, in fact, the authority evident
ly contemplated by Congress when
it imposed upon the local street rail-
ways the duty of forwarding their
schedules to the Commissioners for
approval before making them effec-
tive. But Congress did not give force
to the Commissioners inspection by
coupling with that duty any punish
ment for failing to fulfill the sched-
ules. The measure now In the hands
Of the Commissioners is designed to
correct that mistake It VIII become
law If the railroads are not able to
beat 1t in the 1obbies OF the Capitol
The other bills extend and make
practical the authority of the Com
missioners to make the city sani-
tary. These cannot be passed upon
until their form is definite. Their
chance at becoming law-if in their
final form they ought to become law
will depend upon getting out OF
the two committees and before the
| | House and Senate.
/ These bills and the others which
the Commissioners will frame as
the session of Congress progresses
afford the Board of Trade, the Busi-
ness Mems Association, and the sew
eral citizens associations a fine op-
portunity to do the District practical
service. The railroad bill is likely
TO be beaten, even with all these
bodies active in its favor. But it
is certain to be beaten unless the
District forces the conviction upon
the two District Committees that the
community as a whole demands
some such control Of its street rail
ways. The sanitary bills (assumine
that they ought to pass) are in
danger Of no worse fate than hiber-
= nation. These different representa-.
tive bodies are the only force thai
can keep them awake.
The Board Of Trade. the Bushes.
Mems Association, and all the citf
zens' associations believe in theii
own usefulness. So does The Times
But The Times believes also-anC
most Of the citizens enrolled by thes,
bodies viii concur with it-tha
