Open the Gallery at Night.

There are now on exhibition at the Cor
coran Art Gallery several hundred paintings
of an unusually high order of merit, con-
shutting the first national salon under the
auspices of the local institution. The peo-
pie OF Washington are deeply interested in
this exhibition. and if given a full oppor-
tunity they would doubtless attend it and
closely study the paintings. But at pres
ent they have practically no such oppor-
tunity. The gallery is closed at 5 O'Clock
In the afternoon. one-half hour after the
closing of the government departments. On
six afternoons of the week, therefore. the
majority of the people who are most eager
to visit the exhibition are shut off from it.
On Sunday afternoon the gallery is omen
to the public for three and a half hours
Last Sunday five thousand people crowded
into the building during that time, so eager
is the public to see the canvases
1t is understood that the sole objection to
opening the gallery at night during the
exhibition is that the crowd may be too
great and that it may be composed of ele-
ments of the 'rabble." This is a sorry rea-
son, which should quickly be abandoned.
The crowd at an art gallery is always UNI
der the control of the management and it
is seldom of a rough or disagreeable char
acter. However, if the .rabble" wants to
view the products of talented artists, it
surely should be permitted to do SO. For
art is educational and it serves its highest
purpose when it appeals to the unenlight-
ened.
But in any case the public should have its
chance. Otherwise there can never be a.
truly great salon here. Washington is I'M
fortunate in having an arrangement of
working hours which does not fit into the
system OF the only public art gallery in
the capital In such circumstances the OBJ
vious thing to do. especially on the occa-
sion of an exhibition, is to change the gal
lery's system.
Let there be no exclusiveness about art
here, of all places

Public Fairgrounds.

The District appropriation bill goes into
conference with the playground item re-
stored and strengthened. and in view of
the fact that it was originally reported by
the House committee and only eliminated
on point of order-virtually through a
Observation-Disclosures is to be confidently be-
lieved that the conferees will quickly agree
upon its retention. Not only the S75OO
for the purchase of Sites but the S1OOOU
for equipment and maintenance of these
grounds added by the Senate. should be ap-
propriated. The District should be enabled
to establish during the coming year three
recreation parks for the children which will
meet the juvenile requirements of the Sec
tons in which they are located. These
spaces. with their equipment for the whole
some exercises of children of various ages,
will speedily prove of such value to the
community that Washington will begin to
realize the waste of time that has been
involved in the long. tedious fight for the
establishment of this vitality important
principle Of municipal administration.

nently from the word at large. 1t had nat
tered itself with the belief that no one who
lived elsewhere knew the terrible truth that
Congress makes the laws for the District.
1t was, perhaps, foolish to expect that for
ever would this remain unknown to such
far-seeing. keen-thinking men as those who
are running the great educational machine
and printing journals telling their devoted
admirers what vastly superior race OF be-
ings pedagogues are. These Newtons. these
Columbuses. these ROentgens, Marconis,
Edisons-these generators Of dark myster-
les must sooner or later have found us out.
1t Is better to have come later than sooner.
So at last the fact is known. 1t may now
be proclaimed. Congress does, in shameful
truth make the Districts laws. We people
of Washington have no voice in our legis-
lation. We are taxed without representa-
ton. We are political orphans. We are the
unique exceptions Of the American theory
and system OF government. We are utterly
dependent upon the House and Senate Of
the United States Congress for our street
car laws, our sewer laws, our sidewalk
laws. our Sunday closing laws, and-oh,
shame, shame!-our school laws. True, the
Commissioners have a mere pinch Of power.
They can frame police regulations. but
VIII tiiHhS any tElnS Oh d pOilce reg uid tiOH
as token of the previous privilege Of self
government for which our several-great-
grandfathers fought? Who. indeed?
And so the great world of education now
stands aghast. 1t has found out why Wash
ington has a school muddle. 1t is because
Congress NEEDLES: because the voteless peo-
pie have no political outlet and no civic
conscience; because the younger men have
no honor and the Commissioners no power;
because every man Is factionalist and no
two men In public life are friends-because,
forsooth, Washington is an abnormal COM
munty. in need of drastic remedies to cure
it of it's lis.
These sages do not hesitate to prescribe
for Washington. and it may be expected
that as soon as the pedagogic pens and
presses all get going there will be a rare old
huttering of leaves as the case Is disposed
OF by the learned doctors Most of them
want to make Washington swallow big
dose of autonomy, but some think the best
course will be to tone up the patients sys-
tenn with little presidential prerogative in
advance. Still. whatever the drug may be,
there is no doubt whatever that education
ally Washington is in an acute state of in
nammation. while politically it is suffering
from chronic cirrhosis of the suffrage
The patient will be glad when the con-
sultat!on is ended.

The Larchmont.

From the New York Times.
In the first place the collision was no
work Of the sea; men alone were to blame
for It, The schooner was seen from the
steamer and the steamer from the schooner
in good time for either to avoid the other,
and the conditions OF sea and wind were
merely unpleasant, not such as to cause
any difficulty or danger as sailor under
stands these words. The sailing vessel had
the fright of way" by every custom, rule
and law of navigation, and was not only
permitted. but was In duty bound, to hold
her course steadily. The steamer should
have avoided her and did not. That Is all
there Is to the collision.
For the quick sinking of the Larchmont
the owners are obviously and directly re-
sponsible. According to modern ideas she
was not suitable for carrying passengers.
since she had no water-tight compart-
ments, and otherwise failed to illustrate
1.-The state of the art" as now known to
shipbuilders.
Now for the part played by the COM
mander of the Larchmont. He seems to
have had a crew of fair size and under
good discipline. but II he attended to the
maintenance and the utilization Of that
discipline after the collision occurred his
own story of the wreck gives little indica-
ton of the fact.
