Policy of Macveagh.

Washington, March 1O.-Evidencc of
activity in the members of President
Taft's cabinet has created a favorable
impression, and the belief is growing
that good work for the general public
may be expected.
Attorney-General wickersham did
an unprecedented thing today. He in
vited all the newspaper men in Wash
ington to meet him at the department
of justice, and when they were assem-.
bled he told them that he had now be-
come the attorney of the whole Amer
lean people. and that he hoped to keep
the people informed as to what he was
doing and what he hopes to accom-
plish through the newspapers.
To Know His Clients.
Heretofore" said Mr.. Wickersham.
Il have been the attorney for individ-
uals and private interests. but now I
understand that represent the public.
and l want to keep in touch with my
clients through the newspapers of the
United States"
No attorney general within the men,
DRY Of the oldest newspaper men has
ever taken this stand before.
Mr.. Knox. when attorney general,
even in his most unguarded moment,
never evinced any wild desire to take
the public into his confidence.
His predecessors had been equally

him. Moody and Bonaparte. Offered
! nothing for public information. except
meagre announcements of such results

The above and foregoing state
ment is made i'm response to the
inquiries of the citizens and tax
payers who are entitled to know
the status and financial condition
OF this EO 3rd, and wi h ia ; view Of
furnishing to the public full and
complete account of the funds,
which came into the hands of this
Board from the sale of the bonds
issued and sold by this Drainage
Board.
In addition to this statement OF
receipts and expenditures this
Board also desires to make il
known, that it has done all that
could be done, to complete the
drainage canal in the manner and
within the time contemplated.
That it has taken every precau-
tion to safeguard the interest of
the people, and to obtain for the
taxpayers the advantages expect
ed by the completion Of the drain
age canal.
This Board has experienced
many difficulties in this work and
also some unexpected, but un-
voidable expenses, resulting from
the fact; that, the original surveys
ordered by the preceding Board,
with whom the original contract
was entered into were erroneous
and that part of the route had
lot been surveyed at all; although
the HOyt survey had been accept
cd by the preceding Board, which
awarded the original contract to
Mr.. HOyt; consequently we be-
lieved it correct.
A profile had been made of said
route, but this Board OHly dis
covered the error in the Hoyt sur
vey after Mr.. Hoyt had given up
his contract.
1t became necessary to survey
that portion of the route that had
not been surveyed and we en-
plOyed Mr.. Gutekunst, whose sur
vey disclosed more excavation to
be done than did Mr.. Hoyt's pro
Thomas had then assum-
ed the contract, and this differ
ence has since resulted in the suit
with Mr.. Thomas now pending in
the United States Court.
This Board has also experienced
much trouble and some unavOid-
able expense by reason of the ad--
ditional engineering work, and
other expenses necessitated by
reason of the violation OF the con-
tract by the contractor.
Many people have believed that
the work on the canal has been
stopped for lack of funds, such is
not the case.
The City Council is the Board
of Commissioners of the Drainage
District according to the provi-
sions of the law. Two of the men,
bers resigned several months ago,
while a third has persistantly re-
fused to attend any meetings The
action of these three members left
this Board without a quorum; and
work had to be suspanded-The
refusing to assume the
whole responsibility.
We desire also to state that the

debates. essays. themes, etc. IN many
schools the children are allowed TO
choose their own topics Tor compost
ton or discussion. though in the main
encouraged to keep somewhat IN the
lines of their class studies or supple
imentary reading. This fact accounts
for some OF the strange and unchild-
| like questions propounded to the
library attendants. who are regarded
as general authorities upon ali mat
ters. from the weather to questions of
| etiquette, and who frequently are
asked to settle ail sorts OF verbal com
/ petitions ana contests. as well as "um-
pire" vexed matters Of spelling and
punctuation. The afternoon OF the day
marked by the list OF topics given 4
number Of surprising subjects for de-
bate also were brought 70 the
