Spooner.


John c. Spooner is mentioned for the
State Department, and many will agree
that he would serve there with force and
success. The source Of the suggestion is
not revealed. Neither Is it known how
Mr.. Spooner himself regards it.
When Mr.. Spooner resigned from the
Senate he resumed the practice of law.
There was widespread regret at his re-
tirement from an arena In which he had
figured with distinction. Even his polit-
ical opponents Joined in the expression.
For while he had been a sturdy he had
been fair fighter. and had made no
enemies. Men equal themselves to a high
grade Of contest would have preferred
seeing him remain before them with his
hands UP for battle. He had been a
source both of anxiety and inspiration to
them.
AS for the republicans. they were thor
oughly alive to their loss. All recognised
the fact that leader among them had
taken his leave, and that his place could
not easily be flled. The man who had
made no enemies on the opposite side Of
the chamber had aroused no jealousies on
his own. and received now from both sides
large measure of praise, all of it de-
served.
In the Senate Mr.. Spooner was not only
the profound lawyer and brilliant de-
batter. but the ready and capable negotia-
tor AZ well. Many important missions of

The National Salon.

Evidence that Washington is qualified
to become the art center of this continent
was afforded last night. when the doors
Of the Corcoran Gallery were opened to
inaugurate the second exhibition Of con-
Temporary American paintings. sThe
building was thronged with representa-
tives not only Of all parts of the country.
but of foreign lands as WE'LL Under bril-
liant social auspices an exhibit Of excep-
tionally creditable paintings was pre-
scented, together with examples Of the
work of Augustus Saint Gaudens. who
contributed SO richly to native sculpture.
The several hundred paintings are from
the brushes Of men and women who are
working steadily to realize their artistic
ideals. some Of whom have gained inter-
national fame and others have yet to
win their lavureis. The average is high.
when the exhibition is compared with
others.
Washington possesses all the essentials
for the evolution Of an art atmosphere
and the assemblage OF groups Of active
and successful workers with brush and
modelling clay. No longer does the pos.
session of studio in this city limit ar
artist to the local field for his materials
subjects and market for his work. Here
are the models and the Inspirations fol
work which possesses the universal ap'
peal Of true art. Here in increasing
number are displayed the examples o.

the conscientious student go abroad

objects the home galleries will soon fur
nish all the material necessary for the
development of latent domestic talent.
1t is especially desirable that the Ma

artistic ideal. The federal legislature
has come recently to Appreciate the
fact that Washington has not been a.e-
quately treated in this particular in the

few more seasons projects will be begun

object Of keen interest to appreciators Of
beauty throughout the world. 1t is con-
fdently expected that the Lincoln me-
mortal will be Of a character to emphasize
the position Of this city as a federal GEN.
ter of art. 1t is hoped that as a result Of
such exhibitions as that opened last night
the national gallery. which now consists
of few paintings inadequately accom-
modated In the Smithsonian Institution,
will become an institution of note in the
art world. The Saint Gaudens exhibit
should become a permanent feature of
the city's art exhibit. In a few years
the remarkable Freer collection Of Whis-
tiers works will be brought here. Doubt
less other men Of large means and artistic
tastes will discover the advantage of es-
tablishing their own private galleries in
this city, where they may be viewed by
the American people and thus serve as an
educational influence.
The trustees of the Corcoran Gallery OF

Spooner would be sure Of his footing.
AS a negotiator he would proceed with
work. And in the art of bringing things
to a pleasant end, and one profitable to
both sides. he would probably hold his
own with anybody against, whom he
might be pitted. His views are broad,
and we'll described as American. He
believes In the country. and approves Of
what has been done to give US our
present place in the worlds equation.
1t may be that Mr.. Spooner has no
thought of return to public life in any
capacity. He had the improvement of
his purse in mind when he left Office, and.
prosperous as he may have been since,
has not had the time to lay up any
great store of good money against old
age and rainy days. Lawyers Of his
rank, too. are not easily weaned from

from an excursion into politics Once
is often enough. After an experience
close up. the hullabaloo loses ito attrac-

But, while the republican party is rich
in men Of fine talents and training for
the highest public duties. and Judge Taft
should have no trouble in gathering the
right sort about him, no name shines
brighter than that Of the former senator
