VISIT TO THIS CITY
MEMBERS OF NATIONAL EDITOR
IAL ASSOCIATION SIGHTSEEING.

Following the formal adjournment Of the
meeting of the National Editorial Assoca-
ton in Richmond and a farewell visit to
the jamestown exposition Sunday, many
members of the association came to this
city yesterday, and the afternoon, evening
and most of today have been spent in see
ing the sights of the national capital. The
delegation in Washington today consists
principally of members from the northwest,
southwest and middle west. The last meet
ing of the party was in the east room at
the White House this morning, and there
they dsbanded before starting for their
widely separated homes.
AS expressed by ]. w. Johnson, SUPER
visor of public printing at the capital of
Ohio the editorial visitors in Washington
have been on a pleasure excursion, taking
in Washington as of the most interest
ing places in the country.
Most of the editors visited Mount Yer
non yesterday and gave expression to their
patriotic sentiment for the First Ameri-
can"
The editors were not inclined to talk poll
ties. Washington, they said, was the CEN
ter of information. and it would Ill become
there to try to add anything to the store
or fact and opinion already here. One or
two representatives from Ohio said they
could not size up the situation there, and
some of the Indiana editors declared it was
up to the Washington newspaper men to
show up the real situation in that state.
Is Conundrum.
After talking with a dozen men from
different parts of the country, the impress
SION grew that the republican national con-
vention was as yet conundrum, the &C
ton of which no man could foresee, unless
il be that the states would come up with
their favorite sons, present them and see
them fall before the storm of sentiment
that would be raised in favor of the pres
ent incumbent of the White House.
The editors were agreed that the country
was in the enjoyment of the greatest pros
perity and that optimism was the watch
word all over the western part of the ma
ton. Several declared that the railroad
situation would surely clear up, and that
better facilities. better mana cement and
better prices for securities were to be ex
pected. The editorial opinion, as far as it
could be obtained, was to the effect that the
country was almost sure to have good
harvests. with good returns to the farmers
and a continuation of the prosperity now
enjoyed by manufactures, banks and the
transportation companies. One editor said
it was difficult o-frown down the facts of
the mills working to the limit of their
capacity, the railroads driven with traffic
they could not handle, and openings for
every dollar of available money in legiti-
mate enterprise upon a dividend-paying
basis.

PROHIBITION INTERVENTION.
Marshal Collins Fails to Keep Engage
ment With Glen Echo Theater.

Marshal Collins, the militant arbiter of
the speed rules Of Conduit road. will not
become a stage favorite or matinee idol.
This was the fiat yesterday Of Mayor Gar
rett Of Glen Echo and the little man who
has made his suburb famous did not ap-
pear behind the footlights at Glen Echo
Park, as advertised, last night and go
through the pantomime of chasing and
capturing a diplomatic speed law violator.
Incidentally Marshal Collins saw seventy
five large round dollars, which he was to
receive for the weeks engagement, go
a-glimmering.
1t all happened because Mayor Garrett
declared the dignity of the law must be
upheld, and he could see no dignity IN per-
hitting the police force of his Jurisdiction
to put rouge on its face, pencil its eye
brows and wear out the tires Of it's bicycle
on the splintered board floor of. the park
stage, simply for the delectation of some
hundreds of pleasure seekers.
The fact that Collins was billed as the
headliner of this weeks show at Glen Echo
attracted a crowd which caused many
smiles of pleasure to chase themselves
across the countenance of the ticket -taker
at the Glen Echo Park gate last night. But
some time before the show, the marshal
and the mayor were reported to be In ex-
ecutive session-and the result has already
been stated. Hence the spot light, instead
of shining upon Collins served only to illu-
inmate a sign on the stage, which an
nounced that:
THE marshal was waiting at the gate:
He wanted to go on. for twas said, he
needed the 'mon.'
But the mayor wouldn't let him."
And SO, to crafty their collective curios-
ity, the crowd surged about the police force
of Glen Echo 1T leaned over it's wheel
at the entrance to the park, and many took
advantage of the opportunity to shake the
police force by the hand before leaving the
resort.
