Well Worth Trying.

Rumor comes from Pennsylvania
which may easily be an accurate
forecast of coming events. 1t is said
on the authority of one who has
been closely connected with the in
vestigation of the coal-carrying
roads by the Interstate Commerce
Commission that the commission in
its report win advocate Government
ownership of the anthracite coal
fields, as the only means of protec-
ton for the American public from
the eXtortion that has so often been
visited upon it.
This may seem a radical thing in
the minds of many citizens who are
accustomed to yoke the word $50
cialism" with whatever seems un-
usual in Government control. Yet
the word might as logically be ap-
piled TO the present carrying of the
mails, as it doubtless viii be to the
coming carrying of express parcels.
AS a matter of fact, however. many
other enlightened nations Of the
world exercise control over great
natural products, and it is found to
be good. The United States is GER
tainly as capable of dealing out this
kind Of justice as is any other gov
ernment
Coal is now an absolute accom-
paniment of human comfort, activ-
ity, even life The branches of its
need extend into every department
of social existence, and it should be
absolutely freed from the caprices
of any set of men, either owners or
laborers. Strikes and cut-downs,
greed and stubbornness must not be
forever permitted to wreak their
vengeance on an innocent populace.
So long as private ownership of
this vast necessity is tolerated per-
manent reform is impossible. There
is no security save in complete con-
troll by the United States.

Who's Who?

The Presidents secretary has
written another letter to an ad-
mirer of the Chief Executive, saying
that his hope to vote for Mr.. Roose-
welt next time is doomed to disap-
pointment. and that he Will "have
to vote for some other Republican
next time"
1t would be interesting to know
If the Colorado gentleman TO whom
this information was addressed is
willing to vote for some other Re
publican next time There is a
highly significant and influential
number of the Presidents support
ers who haven't located any, other
Republican for whom they feel dis
posed to vote. If the President
doesn't change his mind he will dis
cover later that he has undertaken
the biggest political task of his
career in the effort to induce the
Roosevelt Republicans to vote for
''sOme other Republican" We sus-
pect that before it is too late the
President Will be induced to change
his mind, and to take the easier
course of letting them vote for
himself.
If the next President is to be 4
Republican he will have TO be Mr..
Roosevelt or some other man whom
the whole country recognizes as
representing the things Roosevelt
represents. The Bryan revival has
served practically to eliminate the
Fairbankses, the Roots, the Shaws,
and more than likely the Tafts.
The Republican party is not with
out men who have proved their
Presidential stature, and who are
of the same general tendencies as
the President; but they have not
been near enough to the center of
the stage to get the wide recogni-
ton necessary to put them into the
rank of serious factors The old
line Republican politicians would
easily defeat for nomination a man
less Objectionable to them than
Roosevelt, although they would not
even try to defeat Mr.. Roosevelt
himself. Prestige is worth as much
in the Presidential game as it is in
the manufacture of soap or break
fast food. Intelligent. persistent
advertising of meritorious article
is what makes business good. The
President has the goods and has had
the advertising.
The Bryan movement has to date
had about as much significance for
Republicans as for Democrats. While
Mr.. Bryan has elbowed competition
off the Democratic stage, il is not
sure that NJ. Hearst will not re-
enter by way Of the new York
gubernatorial Wing. If he does he
may get the lines of the star, or,
falling in that, break up the show

Bathing in the Upper Potomac.

Every consideration of decency
and public interest should move the
authorities of both jurisdictions
which touch the upper Potomac to
keep the shores clear of nude bath
ers. The river is common property.
1t is one of Washington's most val
liable assets. That it should be
closed to the use of the self-re-
specting people of the Capital
through the inac tivity of officers
sworn to enforce the law is intol-
erable.
Yesterday afternoons news coli
umns set forth a condition to which
the police of the District and the
sheriff Of Alexandria county should
give immediate attention. If, as
was there stated, nude bathers are
driving boating parties away from
the District shore, the orders of the
local Superintendent of Police are
not being enforced. If, as was
stated also, there is no apparent
effort TO prevent bathing without
suits on the Virginia shore, the
sheriff of that county has paid no
attention TO a request from the Dis
trict government to cooperate in
maintaining order
In any event, whether orders are
being disregarded or not, whether
cooperation has been neglected or
not, there is nc excuse for further
abuses of this nature. The local
police should keep the District shore
free of nude bathers by activity in
making arrests. The authorities of
Alexandria county should keep the
Virginia shore similarly clear Of
them, if the intervention of the
governor is necessary to get them 10
act. 1t is out Of the question that
half a hundred hoodlums should be
allowed to mOnOpolize a great river
by the simple expedient of being in
decent

However, Republicans are hardly
more devoted to party lines and

1t Is by no means certain that they
can stick together long enough to

minis. The two years between now
