Praises of the model city crusade OF

Ministers urged citizens of the District
to lend active aid to the authorities. the
police and health. Office inspectors who
are pushing the crusade.

in his sermon.
The greatest need of Washington is

to speak out in commentator of the
Commissioners in their action in cleaning
up the questionable section of the city,

The second has to do with the health

commendation and may be furthered by
little care on the part of every citizen.

has to do with the morals of the city
A section which has long been an eye
sore to the best people of Washington
is about to be cleaned up. SO we are
told. This announcement ought to bring
great joy to everybody.
THE police authorities cannot be COM
mended too highly for what they are
doing and for what it is understood they
mean to do in giving to the citizens OF
Washington better city to live in.
"Not Moving Around"
There are three or four things which
the Christian people of Washington should
keep steadily in mind if the present
movement is to accomplish what it ought.
One of these is that a cleaning up should
be a cleaning up, and not moving
around. 1t will not mean anything to the
city, as a whole. to shovel up load of
filth from one place and simply move it
to another.
Let us have a cleaning up. and nothing
less than that.
In the second place. there ought to be
a readiness among Christian people to
provide an easy rescue of those who de-
sire to escape from the awful slavery in

ENCOURAGEMENT OF REVOLT

| Important information concerning the po-
lliticar and financial conditions in the Do
| minican republic is contained in letter,
under date of June %, which has been re-
ceived by Gen. Clarence r. Edwards, chief
| of the bureau Of insular affairs of the
War Department, from W. E. Pulliam,
United States receiver of customs of Santo
| Domingo.
The belief is expressed in the letter
that, with the inauguration of President
Caceres the Dominican republic will enter
upon new era. and that the last vestige
of formidable revolutionary tendencies in
the republic will have been discouraged
effectually.
| An immense improvement is shown in
the financial condition of the republic.
| The income for the present fiscal year.
which began the LIST of July, is esti-
mated at s394S.3 300. the largest in the
history of the republic. Receiver Pullam
says that after deducting $1.20OO 600 to
be paid in r:onthly installments of 100000
/ for interest account and amortization of
the new Dominican bond issue. the re-
mainder available for government expend
itures will exceed the entire federal in

Caceres in Control.
Discussing political conditions in the re-
public Receiver Pulliam says:
Gen. Ramon Caceres. who is just COM
pleting the unexpired term of the presi-
dency. to which he succeeded in January,
1906. after the sensational withdrawal and
subsequent deportation of President Mo-
rales has been elected for the new consti-
tutional term of six years. and will be
| formally inaugurated July 1. President
Caceres is a man of the people. He comes
! from the most prosperous agricultural dis

apparently enjoys the respect of all
classes. He is a person of commanding
presence. a remarkable specimen of phys
ical manhood, affabe in demeanor and
the possessor of a disposition that at

placed upon a stable, let-live, basis his

Resolutions Adopted.
In stating that there is great need in
the District for an overwhelming host of
Christians to commend the District Of
fic.als for their anti-vice crusade, MIR.
Copp deplored the fact that the Christian
sentiment of the city permitted such a
colony of vice to establish itself in the
heart of Washington.
Il: is now up to the church to get be-
hind these public officials in the fight
against it, he declared.
But it is not segregation of these per-
sons of vice that is wanted, declared the
preacher, but eliminate ion.
At the conclusion of his address he
aske,i the members of his congregation to
indorse the resolution. stating that
Whereas throughout the nominally
civilized world there is being perpetuated,
by the almost universal acceptance of the
double standard of morals. a great crime
against posterity: Therefore. we do call
upon the Christians of the world, in the
interests of righteousness, humanity and
decency, for the sake of the moral. in
tellectual and physical welfare of the
race, to unite in demanding the single
standard of moral purity and the elm
ination of the brothel. and to expect and
demand for the generations to come the
heritage of an unstained fatherhOOd.'

Files Appeal

Papers in appeal in the case of the Grand Canyon Railway company against J. R. Treat. treasurer and tax collector of Coconino county have been filed in the office of the clerk of the supreme court. In this case the plaintiff is the appell- ant. The action is in resistance of the payment of taxes on the prop erty of the railroad company and the improvements at the northern terminus consisting of the Fl Tovar and other hotels. power plant, etc.
 The road was built or partially built by the Santa Fe and Grand Canyon Railway company under a legislative exemption act with which it had fully complied. In 1901 the property passed by fore. closure proceedings into the pos session of the plaintiff in which the franchise was conveyed. The plain tiff completed the line under the franchise and established the inn provements at the other end, which are alleged to be essential to the purposes of the railroad.
 The property was assessed by the assessor of Coconino county and re- turn was made to the territorial board of equalization. The plain tiff was represented before the board and protested against the certification of the assessment back to the county board, but that was ordered.
 Injunction proceedings were then begun against the collection of the taxes on the assessment. which amouted to about $500 ,000. but demurrer to the complaint was sustained and from that order an appeal was taken.

 To tempest of flame were famed And then. as the shrill note sounded High over the wars alarms Out rang the voice of the Nations My children! to armsl to arms ! Far in the west. expectant,
 A son of the Nation stood, And torrent of untamed valor Ran wild in his Celtic blood. He heard the call of his country, And, the first call to obey. He had girded his sword about him, Ere the long blast died away. Then, buoyant with nope and eager, To the furnace of war he fled, And into its flame and its thunder His valorons hosts he led. Through the crash and the storm of
 battle
 They broke on the ranks of Spain, And the lines of the foeman way
 cred.
 Meath the scourge of their ter

 They plunged through the seeth-

Swept on to the foeman's ramparts Like the whlrl of hurricane. - Swept on with resistless valor. Tell. joyous and wild and strong, Down the slope of San Juan echoed The notes of their triumph song. He fell, but a glory gathered On his brow. and glory came And over his low grave rested And hallowed his Celtic name.
