The Higher Education.

The educational situation remains dn-
changed. Scholarship at the universities
is still on the high plane of the last
previous reports. The bright young men
who attend the institutions of learning are
unfiinchingly bent upon raising the stand
ard of citizenship by acquiring the great
est possible degree of mental stimulus
from their lectures and classroom exer-
cises. Here is proof. In a dispatch from
Ann Arbor, Mich. that there is to be no
let-down in the race for intellectual su-
premacy:
Twenty University of Michigan fresh
men, scheduled to make speeches at the
annual freshman banquet tomorrow night,
are camped tonight on the roof of the
local National Guard Armory, to protect
themselves against kidnapping by the
sophomores. The twenty men climbed to
their lofty refuge yesterday afternoon.
prepared to stay there until the banquet
hour Monday evening. The sophomores
discovered them today and tried to mount
to the camp with ladders. The freshmen,
however. had armed themselves with iron
hooks attached to long poles, and drew
up the 'soph's' ladders as fast as they
were placed in position One sophomore
hung on to ladder until 1t was twenty
feet in the air before he dropped"
These twenty freshmen are true heroes.
They are animated by the spirit that

He was only a follower. Mr.. German was

Faulkner of West Virginia was quite as
prominent and efficient in the contest.
Senator Gray's sympathies of course were
wholly with the south In that matter.
Later, when the south. as a supporter of
Mr.. Bryan, was clamoring for free silver
he turned from his old associates, as SO
many other democrats did. and gave his
vote to Palmer and Buckner. He is an
able man of the highest character, but
does not in any measure meet the anti
Bryan demands within the democratic
party.

The Retiring Premier of England.

Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman's re-
tirement from the head of the liberal
ministry was so thoroughly discounted by
the reports of his failing health that the
only effect of the announcement is to
precipitate the discussion of his successor
Mr. Asquith, and. possibly to advance by
a few days or weeks the seemingly in
evitable appeal to the country. That the
liberal government Is weakened by the
premiers withdrawal is conceded. In
deed the disintegratng process set in
shortly after the first reports of his illness
were confirmed. and the fact was accepted
that he would probably not be able to
return in full vigor to his former station.
In no phase of his career has Campbell
Bannerman been greater than in this
hour of his weakness. when the fact is
made apparent that he had, up to the
time of his illness. succeeded in welding
his party and its allies into fairly COM
pact whole. and In holding its rather un-
along certain lines.
The weeks Of the premier's illness have
been marked by a significant falling apart
Of the factions comprising the liberal
majority in the house of commons. The
late election in London served distinct
notice upon the ministry that 1t was
weak at the polls. Now comes the change
in premiers. with the prospect that the
new leader will be unable to hold his fol-
lowers as did mpbell-Bannerman. As
quith steps into the breach with the dis
advantage which always falls to the lot
of the successor in Office who has not
himself led a campaign. He is not politi-
cally the personal quantity which the re-
firing premier proved himself to be when
the liberal party won its present over
whelming majority.
Campbell Bannerman was often de-
scribed as an opportunist, but he was a
clever one at that. In his work in the
house of commons he displayed no brilliant
qualities. He was not up to the standard
of past premiers of prominence. There
was no constructive element in his COM
position. He was rather a good defensive
tactician. and in that role he managed
ably. His personality was pleasing in the
House and his wit was ready and effect
| i've but he was not the statesman to
| whom the progressive liberal party OF
England could look with confidence for a
go-ahead policy along the lines of reform.
Whether with Mr.. Balfour as leader, the
conservative party can do better than the
liberals provided the latter go to the polls
in a general election and are defeated. is
much doubted by many. England's great
est issues at this time are domestic, and in
their handling successfully and for the
permanent good of the people old lines
must be ignored. Perhaps the man to
lead the fight to the end of succoring the
English people from their present eco
nomic ills is vet to be developed

the land at the lowest price obtainable.
If the land is taken piecemeal. site by
site. the diminishing remnant will steadi-
Iy advance In price as the government s
own enterprises add to the value OF the
adjacent ground.
Thus the prospect that the land, If
taken at once, would cost approximately
1900, 900 should stimulate the friends of
the measure to greater vigor in Its be-
half For the price will never be less and
it will probably be much greater as tha
years pass. Even If the government
should meanwhile take no more squares
within the triangle for its uses the natu-
raj advance in local realty values, due
to the development of the city, would add
to the financial burden the government
must eventually assume in order to pro-
vide properly for its building necessities.
1t is to be remembered that the pres
ent state of the Treasury is not neces-
sarily determining factor in the case.
Uncle Sam will not have to go down into
his pocket for sc, 100000 at once If he de-
cides to take this territory. He merely
declares his intention and sets In motion
the process Of acquisition, and it will
remain for future decision whether the

gram of the government is beng uevel-
oped.
The Commissioners estimate actually
forms the strongest possible argument for
the immediate passage of the Hepburn
BILL for it points to the cold business wis
dom of taking the land that must ulti-
mately be acquired for public purposes
while it is at its lowest point Of valua-
ton.

The Cost of the Mall-Avenue Land

While higher than some expected. the
estimate OF s19.3OOOOO submitted to III :
Senate by the District Commissioners as
their valuation of the land lying between
the Mall and Pennsylvania avenue should
not be regarded inimical to the success
of the project TO take that area for gov
eminent use. The size of the estimate
indeed. has really no bearing upon the
general issue at stake. whether or not
the government should sooner or later
purchase the land. That question should
be answered in terms of the government S
needs and the welfare and development of
the National capital.

course of legislation regarding the en-
placement of public buildings in this city

and that the most artistic effect will be Sc
cured by the treatment Of the area be-
tween the avenue and the Mall as a
whole rather than as series of ada
cent squares.
The strongest argument in favor of the
Hepburn bill, which proposes the !mme-
date acquisition Of title to the whole ter

thereby proceed Systematically to the util-
izaton of the space with an eye to the

The Failure of Congress.

Eighteen weeks ago today Congress met.
II was the confident expectation of the
District which looks to Congress for all
Us law-making. that an emergency meas
ure would be rushed through both houses
to provide with the least possible delay
for the installation of some form of rapid
transit connection between the Union
station and the city's car lines. Today
the bill for that purpose remains in con-
ference with the conferees haggling over
questions wholly unrelated to the issue
directly involved.
The railroad-riding public Eas suffered
seriously in loss of time and loss of funds
in consequence of this neglect on the part
uf Congress to do its part toward the
District promptly. Every tourist who has
entered the city has gained an unfavor-
able impression of the capital and Its
equipment. 1t has been impossible to ex-,
plain to all of them that the lack Of street
cars within third of mile from the sta
ton doors was due to the obstinacy of
certain legislators during the years of
preparation. when every effort to secure
the enactment of a trackage bill was
blocked by those wanting to use 1t for
purposes of general corpor ation regulat-
ton enactment. 1t has been equally I'M
possible to explain why not even all emer-
gency measure has been enacted at this
session and why. therefore, many months
must elapse after the opening of the
station before the travelling public can be
decently accommodated.
1t might pay to have succinct state
ment of this situation printed in conven-
lent form and handed 20 each incoming
stranger that the truth may be under
stood and the handicap under which
Washington suffers appreciated by the
citizens Of the states. This city is being
visited BY larger numbers OF tourists an
nually. II is vertically the American
mecca and 1: is due to the tens of thou-
sands who undertake the journey each
year. out OF motives OF patriotic interest,
that the District should be given a model

lamentably failed In it's function as
guardian of the capital area In this in
stance and every day of delay adds to
the burden of responsibility assumed by
those who are blockading the way

Early Recollection.

Tousle-haired. freckle-faced, ordinary boy.
Went to school with him, you know.
Twas his greatest Joy
To be lodging lessons-very much like all
the rest.
Fished and went in swimming, and was
very simply dressed.
Everybody knows him now. Wears a
beaver hat.
Makes profound addresses now and then
on this and that;
Has a manner most sedate and is, to tell
the truth,
The pride of the community-a model for
our youth.
But as look upon his face with well-re-
membering eyes.
I still discern likeness which the years
cannot disguise;
And still he seems. howe'er his time he
chooses to employ,
That tousle-headed, freckle-faced, ordi-
nary boy!

Politics in the House.

Behold a fresh and impressive justifica-
ton of the Reed rules. For If the fill
buster now i'm progress in the House can
be executed under the new order. how
much further could il be carried II the
old still existed? Even as matters stand,
a resourceful parliamentarian like Mr..
Williams can do much to impede business.
Under the cd order nearly anybody could
bring things to halt. The House was
at the mercy. not only of a minority
leader playing shrewdly for partisan adj
vantases. but of pigheadedness and ca
price. Such a scene as was often wit
messed in the House only twenty years
ago seems today as remote as the ark.
OF course Mr. Williams seeks to put
the blame on the other fellows. He Is
very anxious to do business. 1t is the
republicans who are denying to the people
the legislation the country should have
and which the President has recommend
ed His object is to show that the Presi-
dent and the House majority are at ODDS
over matters vital to the public welfare.
But why take up valuable time to show
what, according to this reasoning. would
soon appear i'm the ordinary course or
things? The President has made his
recommendations. and If the House ma
jority fails to respond, Mr.. Williams. after
adjournment, can pitch his campaigning
accordingly. He can assert that the
President was thwarted by his party In
the House, and that the only hope OF
securing the measures urged by the Presl-
dent is in democratic House. Hence,
vote the democratic ticket in November.
The maneuver lacks substance and
"reminiscences. 1t is at bottom a thrust
at majority rule. which If the democratic
party controlled the House and Nj. VIII
1iams were in the chair he would stoutly
defend Reverse the conditions, and Mr.
Williams would use all the means the re-
publicans now are using to keep the bust
ness of the House in the hands OF the
democratic majority.
The country has seen this play before.
After all the denunciation of the Reed
rules when they were first adopted, Judge
Crisp of Georgia leading. the democrats
in the very next House. with Judge Crisp
in the chair. fell in with the same pro-
cedure. practically in its entirety. and
in both that and the next House steered
tie ship by the abhorred Reed chart.

Tricks and Deals.

From the Baltimore American.
The late democratic legislature estab-
lished a number of dangerous precedents
Not content with extending the trick
ballot laws. 1t has opened up new in
dustry in trick legislation. Important
general laws are manufactured by the
trick device of lacking them OH to un-
important local bills in the dying hours
of the session, thus cutting out all oppor-
tunity. even by members of the legisla-
ture. to study or understand their pro-
visions. The rights of the public to a
hearing on these far-reaching changes are
utterly disregarded: all Of which trickery
and deceit is absolutely in keeping with
the general character of recent party con-
duct. When outright tricks cannot be re-
sorted to other tactics are employed. Bad
laws are sneaked through in the closing
hours and defended on the plea that
they are to make good some understand
ing" had between somebody and some
body else. Apparently, this transparent
dodge is relied on as all-sufficient to ex-
cuse any sort of legislation, no matter
how dangerous and vicious 1t may be.

Gov. Hughes refusal to name the dele
