Anacostia River Improvements.

Congress may wisely. as Chairman CAL
unger. OF the Senate District Committee,
urges. appropriate sufficient money at once
to meet the public demands for the recla-
nation OF the Anacostia fats and the i'm
provement OF the Anacostia River.
The sum Of $4,000. proposed in the
House bill. Is wholly inadequate. II would
mean, it is true, a continuation Of the
work now under way. but by piecemeal
Far better. as Mr.. Gallinger suggests. TO
make a sufficient sum Immediately avail
able-S1, 100000 is none too much-and then
push the work TO completion.
Needs OF navigation and public health
call for the improvements. Engineer Off
GERS Of the army and the District Com
missioners have strongly presented the
needs. Congress has recognized these
needs. but the appropriations have been
limited and meager. At the present rate
OF progress the completion of the work
will not be reached in years. Since it is
obviously an Improvement that must be
made. why defer it?
Apart from the needs Of navigation and
the development of the facilities Of the
port. the reclamation Of the flats is essen
tial TO the city's health. The beautiful
Potomac Park illustrates what car be
done and should be done with the water
front to the east. President Taft. in his
the future and saw the day when this
waste land would be redeemed and form
a part Of the beautiful environment Of the
Capital City. Let US have a realization OF
the. splendid projectl
Chairman Gallinger's proposition is born
OF wisdom. and Congress will do well TO
adopt il.

The opponents Of Robert E. Pesry-and
there are. strange to relate. such TO be
found in this town-are making great
to-do over the fact that he may get on
the retired list of the navy as a full
fedged rear admiral There is less OBJ
lection. apparently. TO his attaining that
security of inactivity by way of his own
corps, that of civil engineers Of the navy.
with only the relative" rank of rear
admiral, amounting to the same thing in
the end in the way OF pay. The objection
is put forth that Peary ought not to be
a retired rear admiral. 1t seems some
how to endanger the title because he has
never discharged the duties of rear adj
miral. such as flying his fiag7 in COM
mand of a fleet.
The whole title business in the navy is
a wearisome affair and about as silly as
may we'll be imagined in all the subjects
OF service agitation. Peary has done
something which entities him to credit,
and his achievement In reaching the
north pole compares very favorably, in
deed, with the work which has been done
by some Of the naval officers who hold
the rank OF rear admiral on the retired
list. AS 6 matter of fact. when it comes
to protecting the title of rear admiral by
combining II TO those who have displayed
the flag of feet command, IL viii be found
that of the nearly $50 officers who are
now drawing the retired pay of rear ad-
miral and who hold that rank on the re-
tired list, precious few of them ever COM
manded anything above a small ship. So
that in the end there need be no great
alarm felt within the service. and less
on the part of the public,
that Peary will do damage to any of the
traditions Of the service. even if he be-
came a rear admiral without reference to
the corps OF civil engineers. He will
probably be retired as a civil engineer
with the relative rank of rear admiral.
which circumstance will be sufficient pro-
lection to all the sensibilities of the naval
personnel But It will be the same thing
in the end. and. either way, need cause
no distress Of mind or keep the naval
personnel awake az night.

The Uses of Poetry.

From an Old Scrap Book
A girl said to me few days ago Of &
friend Of hers. II never in my life knew
anybody who had such flow of Language
as she has, She is never at a loss for
word Of comparison. or an appropriate
quotation. How in the world does she
do it7'' Well, I asked her, and this Is
what the good talker said:
When / was very little girl my great
delight was to read and study poetry. I
learned poems by heart to recite at school.
to say TO my mother and my brothers.
l have always kept up that habit, and
every day as I am dressing, have an
open book on my bureau and learn some
thing by heart. even II it is only four
lines. l have never given drawing-room
Rotations. for I know ! should simply
bore people, but I have gained great
deal Of pleasure myself from the habit,
and believe It has done more to give me
a good command OF words than anything
else"

Mr.. AIDE Hands the Editor One.

Mr.. George AIDE author OF those illu-
minating and entertaining Fables in
Slang" producer OF that uplifting and
sparkling near-operatic gem. "The Sultan
of Sulu," and so forth and so on. has
soured on the editorial writer's Of the
land and pronounees them punk" Mr..
AIDE thinks there is no uplift in the edi-
torial page; that it bears the same rela-
ton to the newspaper as a whole that
the after-dinner speaker does to the
usual banquet-thet both, at best. are
10 be rated no higher than necessary
evils. People accept an editorial leader,
says Mr.. AIDE. as they accept the orator
incident 10 an occasional good feed-the
former TO get the other stun that goes
along with it; the latter to get the
dinner.
We suppose there is precious little
doubt that Mr. AIDE is an approximately
ultimate authority in matters of this
kind: hence we should hesitate to dispute
his assertions even though we inclined to
a scrap" What he says Is important,
il true on the merits of the proposition.
We are decorously and, perhaps. dis
creetly dumb. We do venture respectfully
TO suggest. however, that Mr.. AIDE be
not too harsh in his criticism of the
editorial writer's. They do the best they
can. As rule. they do not ride in auto
mobiles; generally, indeed, they walk. or
pauonize the street cars-at six tickets
for a. quarter. moreover. If what they
say merely gets a hand from the gal
lery''-to borrow one OF Mr.. AIDES pic
turesque expressions-they are glad. The
editorial writer's realize that they cater.
ordinarily, 10 audiences small. but select
and appreciatlve. and not, like Mr.. AIDE.

verse" as one Of Dickens welI-known
characters would say with respect to the
latter. Or is Il one Of Mr.. AIDES charac-
tiers who so expresses himself? Probably
It does not matter. What is the difference
between friends, anyway?
Mr. AIDE has presented the editorial
writer's a lemon" they will not relish,
but which. for reasons best known TO
themselves. will not be hurled back def
antly, nevertheless. 1t calls to mind a
story of his most gracious majesty King
Edward VII and a very fashionable, very
successful, and very much self-ilnpressed
London tailor The King and his loving
subject were fellow-guests at a social
function given by a recently ennobled
politician. "A pretty party, this" said
the loving subject But it is a pleasure
to greet your majesty. surely. One meets
so many kinds of people here. you know"
Tut, tut. man. said the King. Make
the most Of it, Remember. we cannot
ali be tallors,"
Mr., Ade should be charitable. Not all
editorial writer's could have written those
Fables in Slang" nor yet The Sultan
Of Sulu," Of course.
Besides, inasmuch as that other scintll-
lating Yankee Doodle" genius. Mr..
George NJ. Cohan, never turns out box

The Pretty Waitress, or the Homely
but industrious Kind.
From the Indianapolis Star.
The managers Of the fashionable cafes
of Indianapolis are not agreed on the
question of the comparative value OF the
comedy waitress who trips about at her
work while all the men gaze in admira-
ton.
Chicago and ST. Louis have made an
attempt to thrash out this problem. but
the solution seems afar off. Chicago has
one solution and ST. Louis another. The
former has concluded that the big-eyed
waitress with dimples I'm her cheeks is a
nuisance. The latter Is not so ssngulne in
the theory that beauty in Mattresses IS
not an asset when the patronage Of a
business depends upon the ability Of the
manager to please his customers.
Indianapolis restaurant proprietors ars
agreed on one proposition. The mattresses
must please their customers. They differ
as to what pleases.
One manager, who did not want 20 be
quoted. said that five out OF seven men
who came to his place were cranks. They
like 20 chat with the Mattresses, he said.
and especially to chat with the pretty
ones.
IF they get a little encourag cement, %
ne continued, they will walk nine blocks
out OF their way TO be on hand for lunch
con or dinner. The girl with the Palmer
House walk Is not exactly 10 my liking,
but I have been in this business long
enough to know that there is no place for
one with web feet. The fellow who is

face is sure to find some fault with the
food If. on the other hand. a girl with
some vivacity passes him the menu, his
appetite is not likely to be spoiled at the
outset
The girl who is favored with a grace
full form, an airy carriage. dimple OF
two. and delicately curved eyebrows will
get more tips. wait on more people, and
bring more patronage than the girl who
is not SO favored.

From the New YORK Sun.
If Congress sits till next summer. or
even till April. We shall certainly have to
go TO Washington and see Cotton Tom
(Hon. J. Thomas Hefin, Of Alabams) in
his most fascinating and attractive suit.
Uncle Joe is a Southerner. and the treat
ment he has been getting lately fully en-
titles him to be packed in cotton. It
would set off his strange archaic Assyr-
ian beauty. And the Hon. Cy SulIoway.
Of New Hampshire! What sight it
were TO behold his eighty-four-odd inches
Of white splendor. Victor Murdoch how
ever, is too inffammable. He mustn't don
cotton unless he is accompanied by a fire
engine or a water cart, a precaution
which he always takes in Kansas Most
OF the members can be trusted, though.
and from the present frame of their
tempers and the amount of "campaign
ammunition" they are exploding, It would
seem that they would be much more com
Portable as well as much more fasclnat-
ing and attractive If they put on helm
suits now.
AS usual. Bartlett will give no light on
a classical quotation. Was it the Hon. J.
Thomas Hefin, Of Alabama, who pro-
posed to double the cotton exports by
adding one inch to the tail of every
Chinaman's shirt?

Cheeseparing and Politics.

The Democratic party may attempt to
make political capital out Of the admis-
sion that with better business methods
the government may be run more eco
nomicaIly. but it is very doubtful whether
the public VIII pay. much attention TO the
matter from a political point OF view. No
one party is responsible for the expensive
bureaucratic system which has become a
part of our governmental machinery. The
situation is one which is due to the
growth OF the government, and because
in the past the business spirit has been
lacking.
In addition TO this, experience has
shown that the policy of cheeseparing
does not appeal to the American people
They are, as a rule, broad-minded, liberal
and generous. and they do not begrudge
the money necessary to run the govern
ment in an efficient manner. Extravaganza
and waste are, of course, TO be deplored,
and reckless expenditure is little less
than criminal Appropriations made for
the proper conduct or the government, IN
Guiding the army and navy, are not, how
ever. subject to criticism; nor is it occa-
sion for adverse comment when large
sums are expended for the improvement
Of waterways and for the reclamation Of
desert lands. The American people do not
complain when the government funds are
on the other hand. there is no SYM
pathy for a policy which cripples and
embarrasses through false economy. Any
political organization which merely ex-
PLOTS a reduction Of expense will find
itself without support.
