Nelson W. Aldrich.

The announcement that Mr.. Aldrich OF
Rhode Island Is serving his last term In
the Senate Is Of general interest. He Is
one of the strong men Of that body. and
has figured prominently In the financial
and tariff debates Of the past quarter
century. OF business training, he has
addressed himself as senator to business

listens to those made by others. The re-

probably would not know the general well

to meet 1t In the road with a tag on 1t.
But he knows the business ends Of busi-
ness propositions thoroughly, and states
business case with unusual ferce. His
superior in that particular is not to be
found in either house of Congress.

as mayor at Tammany's hands he broke

most prominent republican mentioned II
Seth Low. an excellent man. but handi-
capped by a defeat after term as mayor
and lacking in some of the elements OF
popularity. He is not an Office seeker

The New York Mayoralty.

William F. Sheehan, who served one
term as lieutenant governor Of New York.
now an attorney with a large corpora
tion practice and in good standing with
the democratic organization at home. says
In an interview:
IF the right kind Of democrat Is
nominated for mayor Of New York CITY
and elected this fall, who knows but that
he may become the presidential candidate
of his party in 1922"
Sure enough, who knows? "The right
kind Of a democrat in the mayors office
might be advanced to the governor s
office. and then. repeating the Cleveland
history. he might be nominated for Pres
ident in 1912.
But what is Mr.. Sheehan's idea about
''the right kind of a democrat? A man
willing to accept a Tammany nomina-
tion and in office to play Tammany's .
game? Could such a man be advanced
to the governorship, and then to the
presidency! 1t is to be doubted IL the
country would accept for President any
body owing hts rise in affairs to such
influences?
We all know what would happen to a
man who should accept the mayoralty at
Tammany's hands and then refuse to obey
Tammany's orders. Look at Mr.. McClel-

Opportunity in School Work.
=, <ha Nav York Evenfn0 pOat


The school is no longer q mere waiting
room for people in search of higher op-
portunities: It has its own openings, and
they are not all in university laboratories.
We believe that very few college men
realize what they might accomplish. were

evening. when he urged Harvard under

work. adding that they are worthy OF

there are who still feign to look down

but the prsjudice counts only against its

Vine Day.

Next Friday will be wine day" in the
District public schools. The children
will plant vines in the school yards,
along fences and walls, and at other
points where there Is a chance to soften
an ugly outline or to add to the pic
turesqueness Of the scene. But not only
In the school yards will the effect Of
wine day" be felt, II the hopes Of the
teachers who are working in this field
Of endeavor are fulfilled. Vines should
be planted on Friday In every yard In
the District, to the end Of hiding some
irremovable affront to the eye. or in
creasing the attractiveness OF the prem
ises.
This is one Of the easiest and cheapest
means Of making Washington a beautiful
city. Annual vines are quick growers
and spread far. The morning-glory.
sweet pea, the moon-fower and the cy-
press are hardy and effective. They can
be utilized as temporary coverings while
the slower perennials are developing. such
as the clematis, wistaria, honeysuckle and
Ivy. They are inexpensive and require
little care, and when good seed 10 used
and some pains Is taken with the soil
and trellis they are highly ornamental.
Washington still has many ugly spots.
despite all the work that has been done
to clear away unsightly conditions. Front
and back fences remain to mar the view.
These can be covered quickly each spring
with concealing vines. In back yards the
garbage and ash cans may be hidden
from sight. With very little trouble
and at q trifling expense light arbors can
be erected and canopied with towering
vines. and hideous alley gates transformed
single dollar intelligently expended may
turn q bare, unsightly yard into q place
Of real beauty.
The school garden work Of the past few
years has not only given the school
buildings themselves more attractive sur
roundings, but 1t has been the means of
developing In the children q sense Of
proprietorship in the growing things, and
of inspiring an embryonic civic spirit
that promises we'll for tho Washington
Of a few years hence. It Is impossible
to estimate the benefits which the city
has gained from this work. modestly
started, and for a season or two con-
Quoted under discouraging difficulties. but
Loyalty persisted In by the teachers until
1t has come to be recognized as one Of the
important branches Of school work. The
direction Of the children's attention on
a certain day to the Importance Of the
vine AZ q means Of Improvement is in
the line Of wholesome education, and
every adult in the District should emulate
the example which the youngsters will
set day after tomorrow.
