WHAT SHALL WE DO?

General Crozier, one of the few
rapidly promoted young officers
Of the United Staes and who was
much appreciated and trusted by
President Roosevelt, says that
there is no first-class respectable
power with whom we may possibly
have unpleasantness but that can
put into the field almost immedi-
ately three millions of men. He
says that this great army could be
marshaled against us more rapid
ly than we could manufacture arms
organize volunteer troops and
bring them in position to oppose
powerful enemy. This was the
gist of General Crozier's statement
before the House Committee on
military affairs.
1t came out in his report that the
reserve ammunition has been fix
ed tentatively at about three hun
dred rounds, each for six hundred
thousand rifles and it was further
elected that owing to the limited
it would take six
and One-half years to accumulate
the necessary reserve ammunition
for war. Well, what are we to do
about it? Manufacture and store
large magazines of war material
that will become obsolete through
that are going on
with great rapidity, or repose in
the security of our splendid isola-
ton and discontinue all belligerent

SUSTA|NS CHARGES.
SUPER INTENDENT DUPUY, OF

THE PARISH DIRECTORS YES
TERDAY,
Special to the n O, States

Special to the n. O. States
Tallulah, La, Dec 22.-The School
Board met last afternoon and re
NAMED in session until late hour
Charges were heard against Su-
perintendent Qupuy, in substance
It was alleged that he had suspend
ed from the Tallulah High School a
pupil because the father of said
pupil had written him criticising
his methods of discipline. On this
charge the board decided without
going into the merits that the pu-
pill should be reinstated and the
suspension vacated
The second charge was as to the
unjust discharge Of Prof. Magee,
the first assistant in the said High
School. On this charge the said as
sistant having rendered his resig-
nation in order to accept another
position, the board accepted the
same and commended him for his
qualities as a teacher and gentle
men. This teacher is esteemed by
all the patrons and the pupils, not
only for his fine qualities of heart
and mind, but for the splendid pro-
gress his pupils have made, and
the community parts with him with
the deepest regret.

BALLINGER-PlNCHOT.

The Ballinger and Pinchot con-
trOversy will not down. 1t contin-
ually crops up. This week Mr.
Hitchcock of Nebraska brought il
up in the House and it is sure to
be heard from in the Senate. Mr.
Hitchcock is championing Mr.. Gla-
Wis who was discharged from the
Land Office and says that CLAWS
story carries conviction and shows
that whether the Land Office was
presided over by Ballinger as Com
missioner or as Secretary of the
Interior, it was and is manipulated
to assist land thieves in their de-
prediations in the valuable coal re-
giOns of Alaska. Secretary Bal
linger, as a member of Mr.. Taft's
cabinet, is, of course, restless un-
der the attacks of Congressman
Hitchcock of Nebraska. Mr.. Bal
linger says that the whole matter
is fabrication and that, besides,
Mr.. Hitchcock is a Democrat. He
says that he courts the fullest in
vestigation. Well, it is probable
that he will succeed in getting it.

NAVAL AFFAIRS.

The Secretary of the Navy, Mr.
Meyer, was before the House Com
mittee on Naval affairs on the 18th
inst. and was so urgent in explain
ing the necessity for the changes
which he has made in his Depart
ment and in his advocacy that these
changes shall be confirmed by leg
islation that he prevented the
Committee going to luncheon until
long after their usual hour for re-.
freshment. He is urging the dis
continuance Of the Bureau system
and the establishment of the Navy
Department on a basis similar to
that upon which the War Depart
ment is now managed.

CONGRESSIONAL OoINGS.

But few more davs remain ia
Congress before the adlourumen,
for the Christmas HOLIDAYS. The
Lower House is making a serious
effort to pass on approximation
bill, that for the District Of Column
hia, before Adjournment. The bill
as originally presented. had been
very carefully supervised anI call
cd Tor smaller appropriation than
that of the previous year, bat the
Lower House OF Congress, in the
interest OF economy. is contruIinr
for still further reduction.
The city of Washington is grow s
ing very rapidly and larg n and
larger sums are being collected in
the way Of taxes. Thp National
Government, owning and control
ling the public parks, public build
Ings and streets, has for years paid
one-half the expense Of up-keep
and improvements, and, as is well
known, Congress is the legislative
body that decides finally with re-
ference to such appropriations as
are needed for the schools. police
and all expenses relating TO NUM-
cipal affairs. But, in Washington as
in many other cities. there are
trusts and public utilities that es-
cape their fair appropriation OF
taxes. There are Transportation
companies and telephone compan-
les which do not contributa thair
proper quota to the support of the
District of Columbia.
Washington is National city.
The National Congress lagislatee
for it. The Presidents OF the u
nited States appoints the commits
siOners who are at the head of the
District Government The resi-
dents of Washington are without
the privilege of voting and have
no direct influence in the affairs
OF the city in which they live, and
it is for this reason that anything
that concerns the welfare of the
National Capital is, through Con-
gress, the concern of all the people
of the United States.
