The Lady Congressman.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

Clubwomen Of Denver have determined
and announced that two years hence
Colorado. by virtue of the votes OF
women. will send a woman as an elected
delegate to the National House Of Repre-
sentatives. If Uncle Joe continues In 1911
TO act as moderator in the deliberative
sessions of the House, and II the lady
from Colorado is there to be moderated.
it will he indeed picturesque juxtaposi-
ton. Uncle Joe Is far famed for his
politeness where the fair sex is con-
cerned. He will be sure to see that Mrs.
Sarah Platt Decker. or whoever 1t may
be, is conceded the last word in any dis
cussion and he will not venture to be-
come vituperative or even unduly vehe-
ment in the restraining presence OF fem
ininity. 1t is to be feared that the claws
of the congressional lion will be clipped,
and that to please the lady-and the thou
sands Of other ladies whom she repre-
sents-he will roar as gently as any suck
ing dove The effect of the election of a
perfect lady TO the House Of Representa-
tives could only be for the general spir
itual and ethical elevation of the men,

A Rogues' Gallery Of Chauneurs.

1t is becoming plain that much of
the trouble caused by automobiles on
the highways and streets is due to the
reckiessness or incompetence Of indi-
vidual chauffeurs. possibly because they
are aMicted with the genuine speed
mania. or because 3hey are temper
amentally untitled for such a RESPONSE
bility. In recognition of this fact the
authorities of New Jersey, where many
accidents have occurred, are planning
to establish sort of .'rogues' gallery"
OF portraits of men who have been con-
yicted of reckless driving within the
boundaries of that commonwealth. The
president of motor club Of Camden,
who Is also an inspector of automobiles,
has undertaken a crusade to rescue
motoring from the odium OF danger
which attaches TO it as a result of &C.
casional cases Of incompetence or reck-
.lessness. He has investigated sufficient-
ly to find that in most cases Of the So
called Joy riding accidents the chauf-
feurs have disappeared. turning up later
in the employ of innocent owners, per-
haps under other names. 1t Is proposed
not only to punish recklessness when
ever conviction is possible but to take
away the licenses from all men who
are known TO be unworthy of this re-
sponsibility, and thus protect owners
as well as the public from danger
and loss. The idea IL worthy Of imi-
tatien In other parts of the country.

the flight from the landing point without
the use of specially devised apparatus
for giving the initial impetus.
Naturally the spectacle of a Frenchman
so easily soaring across the channel and
dropping safely upon English soil is not
particularly pleasing to John Bull. In
deed. the security of England from for
eign invasion becomes from this moment
exceeding problematical. 1t is well
known fact that Germany is at this time
building great dirigibles capable Of being
transformed At short notice into war en-
gines of wide range of action No one
can tell exactly what Germany is doing
in this respect. While there Is a certain
show of frankness. there is unquestion-
ably a veil of secrecy around the really
significant preparations. Airship sheds
are being erected at certain points. and
it would not be at all surprising II within
two years at the outside 1t should be
learned that Germany has developed
fleet of war balloons of the Zeppelin type
capable of reducing the English navy on
home station to mass Of wreckase.
1t is futile to question the actual devel-
opment of the dirigible and the aeroplane
as engines of war. zeppelin's perform
ances and those of the Wrights ana the
French aviators are. of course not
merely interesting experiments. but are
epoch-making advances toward new
condition of world adjustments III Is
possible to foresee without undue imag'-
nation the time when war will be con-
Quoted upon scale of destruction SO
vast that 1t will be virtually Impossible.
In one sense the evolution of the aeflal
warship. with it's possibility OF SWIFT
flight, wide radius. virtual immunity from
molestation from the earth and Its power
of directing devastating fire upon all
objects beneath it, may be regarded as an
Invaluable boon to humanity.

Senator Cores Suggestion.

Senator Gore advises against democrat
ic oppesition next year to those repuh-
,ican members of the present House de-
scrihed as insurgents who may then be
renominated. He thinks they have done
good work against the organization of
their party. and should be kept in office
to continue it.
All very we'll from the democratic
standpoint. but will the suggestion help
the men in whose behalf it is made?
Men are elected to the House as repub-
licans. or democrats, or independents. and
in Office are expected to act according to
the color of their commissions. Repub-
licans are expected to go into the re-
publican caucus. democrats into the DEM
ocratic caucus. while independents are at
liberty to throw their strength where. in
their judgment, it will do the most good
: On a particular measure. republican,
a democrat, may now and then vote
: against his party. That is one thing. But
: to oppose ones party on some vital party
point so strenuously as to excite the adj
miration of the opposition and receive
its Endorsement at the polls is another
thing. Republicans hesitate to be tagged
as assistant democrats, and democrats as
assistant republicans. And very properly.
When Mr.. Conkling and Mr.. Piatt re-
signed from the Senate at the beginning
Of the Garfield administration in a pet
about patronage they went to Albany
and asked for reelection. The demo-
Gratis were advised to assist In the pro-
gram. upon the score that. If returned
to the Senate, the two disgruntled repub-
leans would be OF service against the
administration. That view of the case
defeated the two aspirants for indorse
ment. They had some very strong
friends in the legislature, but the repub-
Leans of that body would not hear to
a step which would bear such a con-
struction and such fruit. They sent in
stead two men pledged to the party's
support.
; Mr.. Lorimer was recently elected to the
Senate from Illinois with the aid of
democratic votes. hut not with any view
or understanding of opposition by him
to republican policies or practices. Mr..
Bradley is in the Senate from Kentucky
with the aid of democratic votes, but Is
one OF the most aggressive of the repub-
licans of that body in support Of his
party's position on the tariff and all
other questions.
Mr.. Gore says there are republicans
who should be democrats and democrats
who should be republicans. Very true.
And all such men should seek party at
citations conforming to their desires and
convictions. Beating about the bush. or
trading with the enemy. is not the rem
edy. When Mr.. Gore himself found that
he was more democrat than populist. he
ceased to be pupulist.

Rock Creek Park.

II have had perfectly heavenly ex-
perience" exclaimed a visitor to Wash
fneton the other day on returning to
the city after a motor ride through
Rock Creek Park. 1T is q dream or
loneliness, and the man who laid 1t
out is a marvel The restraint he has
shown in refraining from molesting
and changing the natural beauties ana
in adjusting the travel lines to the
landscape deserves the highest praise"
This sentiment expresses the feelings
OF most Of those who visit Rock Creek
Park, especially for the first time. From
the beginning the policy guiding those
in charge has been to do as little as
possible with the valley beyond making
it accessible. There has been no land
scape gardening" no modification of tbs
natural conditions. no compromise with
nature at any point few roads.
paths and bridges have been provided.
little Of the underbrush has been
cleared the dead wood has been taken
out and that is practically the sum
total of the work undertaken.
This is the secret of Rock Creek
Parks attractiveness. 1t explains why
the people Of Washington are SO fond
of this reservation and. to the extent
of their ability. utilize it the year
round as a means of refreshing them
selves and easing the tension of city
life. An artificial landscape may please
the eye and soothe the nerves to some
extent. but a park treated upon such
basis soon becomes tiresome in COM
parisOn with natural woodland and
water course. The Italian garden makes
a delectable picture, but there IL In all
the old world no more valuable area
Of public reservation than this which
lies at the doors of Washington. as
a means Of keeping the populace in
good physical and mental tone.
These considerations render 1T i'm
perative that everything possible should
be done to bring Rock Creek Park and
the people together. At the next ses-
sion of Congress there should be prompt
action upon the proposal to extend the
street car lines to and around the
borders of the park, notwithstanding
whatever may be said by the corpora
tions themselves in opposition to such
project. Meanwhile much can be
accomplished by the establishment of
coach lines running from the present
terminals OF the street railway COM
pany into and through the park to rem
