in the local contest and to cripple them In
the state contest. and what has now come

The Snow Fund.

Thanks TO the hand-to-mouth policy
adopted by Congress in appropriating FUNDS
for the purpose of cleaning the capltal $
streets in snow-time, storm struck lie

cally strapped" There was just s53 10
its credit in the treasury when the storm

was hung up in the process OF being iornr
alIv made into law until noon, carries
* 900 for this purpose. Had the storm
come last Saturday, for instance, with
heavy fall, the streets would for two or
three days have perhaps been impassable
with the District government aosoiuteS
nelpless unless the Commissioners had
been willing to risk spending money not
as yet legally at their disposal.
This has been a very mild winter. and the
demands upon the snow fund have been
slight compared with other years, but they
have nevertheless sufficed to exhaust the
pittance doled out by Congress for THIS
purpose in the regular appropriation DILL
The 5000 set apart by that bill for snow
work was plainly too little at the time IL
was appropriated. No one at the Caption
who had the least acquaintance with the
circumstances could possibly expect II TO
meet the seasons demands. The sum was
named in the law with the full understand
ing that it would not cover the needs and
that additional appropriations would have

winter.
The Commissioners have been seriously
embarrassed from time to time in conse-
quence OF this ridiculous policy OF appro-
priating snow money and they have urged
that larger sum be named in the regular
budget. based upon the average expendi-
lures Of the District on this account cover

course be turned into the treasury at the
close OF the year. This year $4,000 would
probably be too much. Next year the re-

twice as much, but the provision of a de-
Gently large sum at the outset would in

The War Lords Words Of Menace.

Emperor William Is talking rather freely
just now of matters pertaining to warfare
and his words being interpreted by
European pessmists as pointing to the
likelihood of conflict between Germany
and France. On Saturday the kaiser began
the celebration of the twenty-fifth anniver-
sary of his marriage. and on receiving the
congratulations of the army and navy.
voiced by the Regent OF Brunswick, he
said:
my first and last care Is for my fighting
forces on land and sea, and that OF the en-
press is for the alienation of those who are
the victims of poverty or Illness. May God
grant that war may not come, but should
the cloud descend I am firmly convinced
that the army will acqutt itself as 1t did so
nobly thirty-fve years ago.
On Sunday the kaiser addressed the off,
GERS of the Berlin military gymnasium
after witnessing an exhibition of bayonet
drill. saying:
Tell your men that while fighting now
adays is mainly done with long distance
rifles and artillery, they must not lose sight
of the Importance of relying upon their In
dividual powers of self-defense. They must
daring and dexterity. Tell them the things
they have done before me today in play
may be repeated under my own eyes next
summer in real warfare
AS result OF these speeches, especially
the latter. those who are keenly watching
the course of the Algeciras conference on
the Moroccan question fear that they see
signs of an early breach. The delegates
from France and Germany have undoubt-
edly reached a point of management. from
which one or the other must yield to per-
nit practical results to flow from the meet
ing An adjournment without full set
Element of all the issues involved would
not necessarily precipitate war. OF itself
the Moroccan situation might continue in
definitely without adjustment on basis Of
international peace. But there is a very
general feeling that the kaiser has gone
into this affair with deep policy. Just
what 1t is no one has thus far been able to
define. He was very bellicose before the
conference opened. and 1t Is said that the
immediate response of France in the form
of feverish military preparations caused
him to change his Tone Whatever the
cause the fact remained that Germany en-
tered the Algeciras negotiations in an os-
tensibly pacific attitude. proclaiming that
all that wanted was an understanding
OF the French program. Now comes this
renewed suggestion of belligerence, with
dark hints of war next summer.
The question at once arises, Has Germany
discovered that France is not as well pre-
pared for war as she seemed to be a few
weeks ago2 Or is this merely a bluff to
work on the minds OF the Moroccan nego-
tiators and force results? It is said that
Emperor William never moves or speaks
without a set purpose, cratic as he some
times seems and If he is now addressing
his officers in the tone of the war lord he
is undoubtedly doing so for reason

edly saved much suffering and loss 1t Is
even believed that ne prevented serious
outbreaks in the large cities and at the
mines. 1t was frequently said at the time
that probably no other man than the chief
executive OF the United States could have
so effectively interposed his influence,
whether official or personal, to put an end
to an intoIerabie situation.
It IS an unfortunate circumstance that
apparently the intervention OF the Presi-
dent has been made necessary in this
emergency, owing to the stubbornness Oh
the contending parties in the coal fields
In 1902 the agreement which Was finally
reached could have been contaminated be-
fore the strike as well as after 1t had
progressed for several months Such an
agreement would have saved both sides
enormous sums of money and spared hum
dreds of thousands of people much mental
agony and physical suffering. 1t would
seem that the lesson taught by that rup-
ture OF industrial relations had not been
thoroughly learned. Else would the two
sides have ere this come together In a
spirit of accommodation without the spur
of presidential suggestion.
A fact worthy of especial note in this
connection Is that the President appeals to
DOln MT. mitchell ana MT. MODULUS, TcpIc-
senting the two sides In the soft-coal con-
troversy, to do their duty as joint chair
men of the trade agreement committee OF
the National Civic Federation. This Is q
wholesome reminder that these men are. OF

and representatives of special interests
afterward. Elise there Is no virtue or
strength in such an organization as the
Civic Federation. 1t becomes mere de-
batting society, without the inherent force
of accomplishment.
coal strike. whether In the bituminous
or the anthracite region, OF both. would, in
view of all the circumstances now well
known TO the entire public, be a blunder or
the first magnitude. the responsibility for
which would soon be fixed by the country.
There is no possible excuse for failure to
frame a working agreement covering the
entire industry. Such agreements have
been made IN the past and they can be
made again No mere question of organi-
rational unity, no stubborn obstinacy on
questions OF form, no maneuvering Tor
market advantage, no policy of union dis
ciplining should be permitted to prevent
the maintenance OF stable peace In an In
dustry which so vitality AFFECTS the welfare
of virtually the whole people.

Constitutional Representation.

General Keifer's bill. introduced yester-
day. to make representation in the House
conform to the constitutional requirements
reviyes a subject with which the republican
party has been flirting for some years. De-
tails of the Irritation are not important eX-
cept as showing how parties-all parties
are given to blowing hot and cold on diff
cult questions. On this question the repub-
lican party has several times promised ac-
9lon. and notably in its latest national plat
form All the leaders recognize the inc
quality, not to say the injustice, of the pres
eut representation. But when 1t comes to
applying the remedy-and that remedy
plain provision of the Constitution-some OF
them-some OF the most influential of them
baik Not unwilling to trade on promises
during national campaigns, and to accept
votes thus obtained in close states, they
draw back when asked to redeem the party's
promises in the way of legislation.
The present proposition Is specific, and
asks for reduction of thirty-three votes
IN the representation of those southern
states where the negro vote is either barred
by state laws. or otherwise suppressed.
Figures given by its author are not new,
but as grouped by him show a remarkable
state of case. In Mississippi. for example,
with white voting population of one hum
dred and fifty thousand, only about a third
of the vote is polled and yet that poll Of
some fifty thousand sends eight men to Con-
gress In many states east and west that
many votes send only one man to Congress.
Surely a difference so great should be REM
edied. and especially as the remedy stands
prescribed.
OF course we shall be told that the people
OF the south, blacks and whites together,
should be represented whether they vote or
not Yes and 1t is true that even the
slaves in slavery days were counted as
three-dfths in the scale of representation.
But by that argument the free black man
counts for more in the matter of legislative
power than the slave did. The slave stood
fer three-hfths and the free man for the
whole unit. And yet the free man has as
little to say about who shall represent him
and what his representative shall support
gained In legislative strength as the result
of the constitutional amendments, while
multiplying those amendments in the ar
arrangement OF her suffrage. And in that
way We are having negro domination, indl-
rectly. with a vengeance. The south votes
the negro in Congress without his consent
and at times-as in the cases of free silver
and free trade-asalnst the interests of the
whole country herself included
As General Keifer is an experienced poll
tician and a good speaker, his course in this
very interesting matter will be watched
with serious attention.
