The House has already at this session
passed bills for the proper reimbursement OF
the salaries OF policemen and school teach
ers, and It Is to be expected that 1t will do
as much for the fremen. These three
classes of municipal workers have never
been adequately paid in the District, and
their petitions have been annually before
the committees Of the two houses. This year
the disposition prevails to render justice to
them, and the fremen and their friends have
good reason to hope that the lower branch
of Congress will next Monday demonstrate
its intention to be liberal to the last of the
three classes brought under consideration.

Oregon. and November.

The result in Oregon is mixed. The dem
ocrats have reelected their governor. while
the republicans have polled good majorities
for their candidates for the national Offices.
A republican will come to the Senate, and
Two republicans to the House.
National interest attaches of course 10
the returns for the national places. These
show that there has been no turn OF the
Htide in Oregon on national issues. The
state throws her influence again for sound
money, protection, and expansion, and for
those issues which have come to the front
within the past few years. 1t is equally
clear too that the course of the admins
tration in the land grant frauds stands ap-
proved This latter point is Of especial
value. as encouraging the authorities TO
proceed elsewhere with their program ft r
bringing land thieves to justice.
The next elections take place in Septem-
Der As the two New England states which
will then vote are reliably republican on ma
tional issues their place in this years col
ann may be fixed in advance.
t'7 Speculation about the complexion of the
next House will not be checked by these
ufacts although republican uneasiness may
abate somewhat. 1t win be claimed that
as all is safe in Oregon. where the party
had INDUCED in a very thorough house

uuencies have been exposed. The people,

turned to Washington convinced that the
country would follow suit in November. 1t

The Reds of Paterson.

Paterson, N J.. has acquired an I'M
savory reputation throughout the world
The charge is now brought that from that
City recently went forth an anarchist
ordered by the high~priests of the reds to
assassinate King Victor of Italy A diplo-
matte representative of foreign govern
ment, stationed in this city, declared
recently that Paterson Is the hotbed of
anarchy in the world. It becomes plain
that the countries of Europe consider
that there is more to be apprehended
from that center than from London or
Paris. II this is true 1t is a disgrace to
the United States. Sufficient warming was
given by the disclosures which followed
the assassination of King Humbert at
the hands of man sent forth from Pater-
son, to have enabled the authorities to
clean house at that point to good effect.
But whatever may have been done then
was evidently insufficient. The reds are
stili there. plotting against the lives of
the sovereigns Of Europe.
1t Is not uncommon to read of an agita-
tor that he Is strongly suspected of en-
Pertaining anarchistic views" Or that a
certain individual is known to belong to a
Paterson red" circle. Yet such people re-
main at large. They go about their daily
work and attend their meetings and full
inmate against monarchy and tyranny
And the other stock objects of hatred and
no attention is paid to them. When the
police are asked about Il the reply usu-
ally Is oh. we are watching them close
~. They are harmless" Then suddenly
comes word Of an assassination in Eu-
rope, or possibly, by good fortune, the
discovery OF a bomb supply in season to
prevent a crime, and the plot is traced TO
Paterson. or elsewhere in this country.
and 1t is then found that the quiet, harm
less member of the red society is the man
chosen to do the bidding of the chiefs.
Then the police raid the meeting places and
make few arrests.
We nave undoubtedly been unpardon-
ably negligent in our admission of the
european rin-raff for many years past,
ana In consequence we have some of the
most dangerous criminals of the old world
IN our cities and towns, nursing their
ancient grievances and plotting revenge.

of smell and are occasionally dangerous to
health
The average citizen depends largely upon
the municipal machinery to correct abuses
and abate nuisances. He relies upon the
policemen and the health inspectors TO
watch for him and to apply the remedy of
rosecution wherever improper conditions
develop. He certainly feels assured-untfi
he Is d sllusioned-that he can trust to the
official. in all circumstances to maintain
the high standards be has himself respect
ed, and. upon complaint of lapses and evils,
apply the pressure which their powers af-
ford. In other words, the public-spirited
Washingtonian regards the municipal ad-
mnistration as a watchful guardian of his
interests and of the welfare of the capital.
But occasions arise now and then to shake
this faith and to compel the belief that the
official standards are not as high as they
should be, and the official initiative not as
sharp or as reliable as the character of the
city requires. In another part OF The Star
today appears letter from citizen who
voices grievance which is doubtless paral-
ieled in the experiences of many others.
He looks upon the parkngs as opportrint-
ties to increase the attractiveness of the
city and yet he has found that the regula-
tons and the practice do not Insure their
treatment such in all cases. He was
put to repeated efforts to prevent the use of
the parking adjoining his premises as a
chicken run. That principle should have
been promptly established by the authori-
ties without his Intervention. He has now
learned that gasoline tanks, spreading disa-
greeable odors, and possibly endangering
property, may be buried in the parkings
whenever there are no back yards, these
tanks being for commercial purposes and
profit. He has furthermore learned that
there Is nothing IN the equations or the
practice of the health Office to prevent the
maintenance of nuisance in the form of
an ill-smelling poultry yard Immediately be-
meath his windows.
In all these cases the trouble lies with
the low standard. The burden of proof and
of effort should in all cases be removed
from the man who keeps his own premises
clean and orderly and placed upon the man
wlo wants to use the parkings and his own
yard for some profitable or annoying pur-
pose. The full power Of the municipal gov
eminent should be welded in behalf of the
man who is contributing % the attractive
ness of the capital and against the man
who Is contributing to its Disagreement and
possibly its i'll health.

Kansas,
From the Philadelphia Record.

Kansas has had hard luck with her sena-
tors. One committed suicide, one resigned
years ago to escape expulsion, one was de-
feated for reelection by evidence that he
was buying votes, and still another had
his election investigated by Senate COM
mittee, which reported that bribery IN his
interest was proved. but 1t WAS not clear
that he was a party to the bribery or that
enough votes were bought to affect the re-
suit. And now there is Burton. For state
that boasts of more churches and schools
per capita than any other state, and q
smaller percentage of fereign-born than
most other states have. Kansas has not es-
tabiished an envfable record In senatorial
selections.

fund. Iu the audience wss msn who
was publicly known to oppose foreign

Of being an agnostic of the deepest
dye. The church man in the course
of the collection passed this man the

ration came to the churchmau, and,
