Protect the Statues.

Unless some special precautions are
taken to protect the statues erected along
the line Of march on Inauguration day.
II is to be feared that damage will be
done to the pedestals and figures by the
enterprising boys and men who are al
ways prone to climb to points of vantage
on such occasions. Policemen are Or
dinar!ly stationed at the base OF these
statues, but In a great crowd they are
not always a sufficient precaution, and
the pushing siglatseer will often secure a
place aloft despite the watchfulness Of the
men In uniform. While they may be
promptly brought back to earth, these
climbers may frreparabiy damage the
works of art in going up and returning.
II il is not too late. II would be perhaps
in the interest Of preserving the memo
rials along the route of the parade to
erect barriers OF some kind around their
bases to hold off the ambitious ones alb
soiutely. Whether this lies within the ju-
risdiction of the inaugural committee or
OF the government may be question,
but that question should be easily settled
before the 4th. The. barriers would not
cost a large sum and would repay the
expenditure many times over in the pre-
venting OF damage, some OF it beyond
repair.

The Big Hat Question,

The Stars suggestion that the women
Of Washington set their sisters from
other cities a good example by wearing
small hats next Thursday has been we'll
received. Responses have been sent from
various e1arters TO indicate a generous
disposition III this regard. One woman
has suggested that the chairman Of the
committee on stands cause to be placed
on all these structures large signs re-
questing the wearing of toques or other
small hats or of stun head coverings, es-
pecially during the passing of the pa
rade. Such signs would attract the at
tention Of the incoming visitors. some
of whom may never have acquired the
habit Of considering others in places of
public assemblage.
Judging from the present preparations.
nothing will be required to make this
Inauguration one Of the most enjoyable
spectacles ever witnessed In this coun-
try but good weather and small hats.
No one can, guarantee the weather. Con-
gress has delayed action on the change
of-date proposition so persistently that
the people OF this city can only point to
the Capitol when visitors utter complaints
about the uncert ainties Of March. But
the hat question is strictly within the
range OF regulation. The women can

A Tax on Education.
From the ST. Louis Star.

From the ST Louis Star.
There will be general approval of the
effort to have works OF art put on the
free list in the new tariff measure. by all
who give the subject q moments thought.
Every statue, painting or etching that is
imported is a national gain. In time most
of them find their way into museums open
to the public and become part of the
great educating forces for the general
uplift of the people. No home industry is
protected by the duty. which is % per cent
Of the value, because no person desiring
to purchase work of art buys either at
home abroad because Of the price.
Most native pictures are cheaper, even
with the duty not counted Therefore. the
tariff gives our. home artists no protection
whatever. On the contrary the more works
of fine art we import the better are We
able to educate our artists at home. In
this sense the tariff is repressve of our
native art, rather than stimulative Those
who are bringing to US the riches of
Europe, which Europe strives to keep at
home and to give our native artists who
cannot go abroad to find these art treas
| ures and study them. opportunity for such
| study in their native land, should not be
made to pay for the privilege of thus ell

The Inaueural Visitors.

1t is expected that during the Inaugural
ton week there will be upward Of 10000
strangers in Washington in attendance
upon the various ceremonies in this city.
Some of these will come for very short
time and others perhaps for week. But
whether for a long or a short stay, all
these visitors will be interested in the
Capital city, and it is fitting that every
Washingtonian should constitute himself
a reception committee to welcome these
guests and particularly to explain to them
what Washington means, what it stands
for nationally. what It has developed
from and what 1t is destined to be.
1t is always important to explain to the
stranger, a visitor from the states, the
peculiar relation between the District of
Columbia and the rest Of the country.
The educational process In progress for
many years has been fastened by the
numerous conventions that are held In
Washington, attracting here citizens of
all classes from all sections. These people
come now under patriotic impulse, to
take part in ono of the most significant
national ceremonies. They are ardent be-
levers in the United States and presuma-
bly, they are enthusiastic admirers Of that
for which Washington, the Capital city,
stands.
AS these people go back to their homes
they should carry with them a concept
of the District Of Columbia as the center
OF the political organization, as a city
of learning and culture as most at
tractive city. They should remember it's
residents as a progressive and intelligent
people whose zeal for Washington is one
of their dominant qualities. In the degree
that they find Washingtonians believers
in and faithful citizens OF the District
these dwellers in the states will SUBJ
scribe to and foster the idea of making
Washington the most attractive city in
this hemisphere. and one of the most i'm
portant and highly developed municipali-
ties in the world.

dent, he will never cease to be an ex-
President while "A citizen. The every
day plane is denied him. He must, as
long as he lives. pay the penalty of his
fame and achievements.
While in Europe Mr.. Roosevelt will be
a man Of extraordinary interest. He has
caught popular fancy there quite as much
as at home. He has been more written
about than any American of his genera
ton. And the pens so employed have
not in all cases been those of anonymous
contributors to the daily press. Foreign
ers of high personal distinction in letters
visiting the United States have met the
man in the White House and contributed
both to newspapers and magazines at
home, and sometimes recorded In books,
their impressions Of Mr.. Roosevelt and
they have been Invariably complimentary.
Some have been laudatory to an unusual
degree.
In Europe this interest is all the great
er by reason OF the likeness traced be-
tween Mr.. Roosevelt and the German
emperor. The kaiser is the strenuous
man on that side Of the water as Mr..
Roosevelt Is on this. And the kaiser
has held the stage over there for
long time Even those who dislike him
follow his movements and performances
with marked attention. He is a tireless
worker, full OF surprises, and wherever
he goes is for the time the center OF
things.
Mr. Roosevelt is on the eve Of adding a
wrinkle to the score which will put him
one ahead of the kaiser. The African
trip Is an inspiration in several ways.
Though lost to sight for a twelvemonth.
the strenuous American will still be to
memory dear. and fresh. The public at
home and abroad, is going to be kept well
advised of his doings, and maybe OF
things that he has not done. Hunting
stories favor-even demand-the pictur-
esuue in description. and the big bag goes
to the celebrity. This is the rule of the
game Mr.. Roosevelt will not be able to
control this The chroniclers OF the chase

Kr. Cannon and Congress.

Mr.. Cannon, in his letter to a constitu-

wants to he judged by the record, and

competent to deal with the subject. Per
fectfon Is not claimed in either case. He
pretends to no such quality himself. and
comedies that the rules are not ideal.
But this very reasonableness Is unrea.

keep over night, accuracy and competency
are not supreme. a subject-any subject
is chosen, Tom, Dick and Harry are
consulted. straw vote Is taken, and the
matter is settled. No appeal lies, and
there you are. If the decision is farora-
bic, everybody must shout for the man OF
thing indorsed: II unfavorable, everybody
must shout against the man or thing con-
demned. The process is simplicity itself
SO simple In some cases 1t is entirely de-
void of sense.
Congress, for some years. has been the
target for all sorts OF misrepresentation

describe that body as composed largely
OF takers and grafters. The Senate is

with the Speaker at the head. Sound
legislation is all but impossible. Every
measure must run the Eantlet of men
who are far less the representatives OF
the people than of corporations. Rotten
ness is the rule. A visitor to Washing
ton on business begins to hold his nose
after stay OF twenty -four hours. Both
parties are affected. The democracy has
not escaped because of its long absence
from power. And So on.
This Indictment is not the work OF
men whose business it is to study and
report the business of Congress. On the
contrary. they are well advised Of its
falsity. AS Mr.. Cannon points out, the
leading newspapers Of the country are

Inauguration Week.
the Chicago Record Hera Id

From the Chicago Record Herald.
This is the one week out of 20S-there
being fifty-two weeks to the year-when
national interest is focused more than at
other times on the National capital. 1t
is the week of an expiring and an incom-
Ing administration. Four days hence
President Roosevelt will bid adieu to the
White House and to Washington after
seven strenuous, history-making years,
and the ears of the country will be strain
ed for the salutatory OF the new execu-
tive. AS the government grows older
there is tendency to make each sue

brilliant II possible, than the one before.
The preparations made for this year s
event, SO the correspondents inform us.
are on a scale of elaborateness that will
give it the record for brilliancy, at least
until the next time. 1t may be said
within bounds that, so far as the popu-
lar interest Is concerned. no President
ever has approached his inauguration with
a more united good will than that which
will follow Mr.. Taft as he proceeds to
the Capitol to take the oath of office.
There will be a mighty crowd Of Amer
lean citizens, representing every state,
and there will BE representatives of every
territorial possession Of the United States
