ingalls, Picks Harmon.

So-called presidential quantities come
and go. They arc here today, and gone
tomorrow.
1t seems but yesteryear that Melville E.
ingalls, of Cincinnati was the hope OF
those Cleveland democrats who wanted to
break Mr.. Bryan's hold on the party.
Personally an estimable gentleman, and
a force for good methods in the business
world, he had the confidence OF the east
and the middle states as a man who did
things. Although without experience in
politics. he was abreast Of the times as
TO political issues, and |; was assumed by
his admirers that the executive ability he
had displayed as the head of great
railroad system would answer in the high
er post of the presidency of the United
States.
Naturally Mr.. ingalls, was pleased with
the suggestion. He talked around 1t In a
way to dignity it, and it had a short and
respectable existence. But OF course II
could not last long. Mr.. Bryan was too
strong for such maneuvers to have more
than the effect Of passing entertainment.
When the time came he reached out and
took another nomination practically with
out an effort. The ingalls, boom and other
booms collapsed. and were known no
more.
Mr. ingalls, is now a Harmon boomer
He thinks his friend and neighbour has 4

That the temper OF the time, in this
country at least, is strongly favorable to
world peace and the conditions that logic
ally accompany it, is evident from the
vide advocacy OF it in the leading jour-
nals and magazines. 1t is not their our
pose to burden their columns with those
things in which their readers take only q
tann,,id interest or none at all On the
CONTRARY, they aim to feature those mat
tiers which are OF new and growing popu-
iarity. and so far as the current publica-
tions supply the barometer. public opinion
Is rapidly changing in it's attitude toward
war This is doubtless due in large meas
nre to the development OF higher stand
ard Of civilization and international JUS
tice but in no small part to the convic-
ton that war does not pay. 1t Is not sc
very long ago that war was regarded as
a good thing for business; not the bust
ness of the contestants, but of those cOun-
tries that stood at one side and supplied
the necessities of their neighbors who
were fghting instead Of producing. Now
there are very few sane people who re-
gard war as good thing for anybody

Cheap Street Car Rides.

There is agitation in Baltimore look
ing to the establishment OF q plan OF
selling six tickets for quarter by the
street railways of that city. This is an
Institution in Washington TO which WASH
ingtonians have been so long accustomed
that they never think of 1t as unique.
1t is system which has been of immense
convenience and saving to the people OF
this city, and 1t may with reason be
believed to have been of marked ad-
vantage to the street car companies. IL
has encouraged the car riding habit. With
tickets in his pocket man may board
a car when he would not it he had 10
pay a nickel. A bit Of pasteboard already
paid for is more freely used than bit
of coin would be.
Car riding is cheap in Washington, dis
tances considered and is becoming cheaper
because distances are increasing as the
residence sections recede from the bust
ness centers and as the suburbs expand.
Not many years aSo a ride OF lew
squares carried a man from the office to
the home district, but now great mass
Of Westinghouse ride miles between
home and office. While certain sections
feel that they are not as well served as
others In the way Of accommodation and
schedule, there is little protest against
the price of street car transit. While
passengers are getting longer ride each
year for nickel or a ticket, the value
of that nickel in purchasing power in
numerous other ways has declined.
Ever since the long and hard fight OF
nearly twenty years ago by which The
Ster saved Washington from the over
head trolley and secured the adoption OF
the Budapest underground conduit sys-
tenn, there has been steady and graft
flying development along sound lines of
the capitals street railway system. The
nuisance Of the projecting T rail has been
SLATED and the 2rooved rail substituted.
The horse has been abolished without
throwing the capital into the clutches of
the overhead trolley octopus. The service
has been extended and quickened and in
a SCI of ways improved. The best the
most rapid the safest and the least dis
figuring of rapid transit systems has been
generally installed.
All public service corporations need
constant and careful inspection and regu-
lation to secure for the people maxi
mum of accommodation at minimum Of
reasonable charge and of danger to the
public. Washington ESPECIALLY suburban
Washington has on many occasions COM
planned of specific evils, discomforts or in
conveniences attributed to defects in
rapid transit equipment or methods, and
demanded in the name of an overcrowded
and strap-hanging public more cars,
through cars, more sanitary cars, safe
guards in equipment, etc. and Congress
has responded gradually and in meas
ure with the necessary regulation The
result OH the whole is creditable and
gratifying. The fact doubtless still re-
mains that in the relations of the people
to public service corporations eternal visi-

The Presidents Travelling Expenses

The debate which took place In the
House Yesterday on the subject OF the
Presidents travelling expenses does not
read well. None of the participants shone
in it. Everybody, with good reason, may
regret the whole episode.
There is no doubt of tie fact that the
President Of the United States is a most
welcome guest wherever he appears. he
is the chief magistrate OF the "hoie
country. The people honor themselves
In honoring him. And they are ever
ready to honor him. A state may have
given a majority Of thousands against
him at the polls. and ye, with the ut
most sincerity, solicit the pleasure or
visit from him. While still the leader
of his party, the President does not carry
his politics to his hosts on his Vlslts'
nor do they meet him with theirs.
Long Journeys by the President are OF
comparatively recent growth. MIR. Cleve-
land did not care for them. His tempera-
ment did not respond to such activities.
Gen. Harrison enjoyed them. and some OF
his most felicitous addresses were made
from the rear platforms of railway
coaches, or hotel balconies, or from
hastily constructed stands in small
towns. Mr.. Mckinley. with much sue
cess, followed in the same path, and
what had now become almost duty fell
in precisely with Mr. Roosevelt's tastes
Mr.. Taft therefore inherited the in
vitations that have been showered upon
him. And his personality has increased
the pressure. Curiosity to see the Presi-
dent has been reinforced by desire to
meet a man OF a hearty and responsive
nature, at home in all companies. and
liberal in all his We've.
Now America is a pretty big country.
Distances are long. Travel is cornmo-
dious and expensive. Steam railroads do
not sell tickets at the rate OF six for a
quarter. And if they did the President
could rot afford to travel in that style.
He must meet the obligations of his sta
ton. He must go frst-c.lss. His travel
ing conapanions-omcials md citizens in
private life. who pick him up at this
place, and turn him over to others at
that place-are, like himself. of conse-
euence in the world. Everything is done,
and should be done, on generous scale.
The sum required would be heavy for
an individual, but is trifie for the gov
eminent. Moreover it is money well ex-
pended. The President and the people
should be well acquainted. Put in terms
of the curbstone philosophy. they need
each other in their business. Why hag-
gle over such an appropriation? Why
not make it regularly, and as a matter
of course? There should be no politics
introduced into such a matter.

Sanitary Police Stations Needed.

1t is a serious reflection on the pro-
gressiveness and humanity of the CAPT.
tai that the cellrooms in several Of the
police stations are In the insanitary
condition revealed by the annual in
spection by the health department.
Prisoners presumably innocent. and in
many instances really without guilt, are
entitled to accommodations in police
stations that do not threaten their lives
and the lives and comfort Of persons
with whom they must associate. Nor
is it right that the lives Of the police,
who must spend considerable time in
these stations. shall be menaced by the
insanitary condition OF the cellrooms.

The first precinct station house. the
headquarters of the precinct embracing
the central and business district OF
Washington. should be replaced by
modern structure. 1t is hopelessly out
Of date for it's uses and makes a SAD
showing in comparison with the newer
station houses in outlying districts
especially the model police building in
AnacoStia.
Maj. Sylvester in an interview In the
Star has said: These conditions nave
been presented to the Commissioners
for several years. and estimates nave
been included to Congress looking TO
the undermining of the cell features or
the several station houses In the DIS
trict of Columbia; but up to the pres
ent time nothing has been done through
appropriation looking to their better
ment." There is a note Of discourage
ment in what the superintendent Oh
police says I'VE nave failed so often
to get this necessary reform that we
may fail again." is what he says be-
but, of course, large number of things
which ought not to be actually are.
The captain of the sixth precinct has
said that it is inhuman to lock a per-
son up in his station from SATURDAY
evening until Monday morning. 1t Is,
therefore, only few hours less 1nha-
man to lock a person up in that station
house at all. The fourth station, on
the word of the police. is nuisance
to the neighborho, :. The second e
cinct station house has cells without veil
tiIation. They are after the fashion OF
dungeon. And SO on through the list
of police stations that ought to be con-
demned as unfit for human occupancy.

Primaries.

1t is complained that the vote at both
the Indiana and Ohio primaries was
light Only some forty per cent was cast.
Granted that it should have been larger,
it compares most favorably with the old
style of making nominations, when. as
has often happened. half dozen polti-
clans have done the business for the
whole population. The primary is open
10 all. The mass convention is often a
loaded dice affair, where the attendance,
even when large, cuts no figure what
ever in the work in hand. That has been
cut out by machine methods. and nothing
can interfere with the predetermined re-
suit.
